ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To observe the clinical effect of TCM treatment for dissolving phlegm and dispelling stasis (DP-DS) on acute cerebral infarction (ACI) and its influences on plasma protein C and S and soluble thrombomodulin (TM).METHODS:
One hundred and twenty-two patients were randomly assigned to two groups, the treated group (62 cases) and the control group (60 cases). They were all treated with the conventional treatment, and DP-DS treatment was given to the treated group additionally. The treatment course was 14 days. The changes in scores of TCM syndrome and neurofunction impairment (NIHSS), levels of plasma protein C (PC), protein S (PS) and TM before and after treatment in the two groups were observed.RESULTS:
The total effective rate of TCM syndrome in the treated group was higher than that in the control group (P= 0.00). After treatment, NIHSS in the two groups was significantly different (P=0.00), and the score in the treated group was superior to that in the control group (P = 0.00). NIHSS score and levels of PC and PS were improved in both groups (P = 0.024, 0.028), and the improvement of PC in the treated group was superior to that in the control group respectively (P = 0.049). But no significant change of TM was shown after treatment.CONCLUSION:
TCM DP-DS treatment shows significant effect in improving TCM syndrome and neurofunction impairment of the patients with acute cerebral infarction, and raise the levels of PC and PS.
