The center receives perception of the paralyzed muscle through the aid of these impulses. During this process, functional reorganization of connecting network between segment and intersegment takes place. OBJECTIVE： To observe the therapeutic efficacy of acupoint electrogymnastics and traditional electroacupuncture on stroke hemiplegia. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING： A multicenter, randomized, controlled, blinded, clinical study was performed at the College of Acu-moxibustion and Massage in Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from May 2004 to September 2006. PARTICIPANTS： A total of 153 patients suffering from stroke hemiplegia, comprising 83 males and 70 females, aged 63-70 years, were admitted to outpatient and inpatient at LongHua Hospital Affiliated Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese medicine, Putuo District Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital and Changqiao Street Community Health Service Center of Shanghai. METHODS： The patients were randomly divided into treatment （n = 77） and control （n = 76） groups. They were treated with acupoint electrogymnastics and traditional electroacupuncture, respectively. In the treatment group, two pairs of positive and negative JD-2008 type electrodes from a hemiplegia treatment apparatus were directly pasted on the Shousanli （LI 10） and Waiguan （SJ5） acupoints of the upper limb, as well as the Zusanli （S36） and Yanglingquan （GB34） acupoints of the lower limb, respectively. In the control group, needles were consecutively inserted into the above acupoints. Using the method of lifting-inserting and twisting-rotating, the needle was manipulated with small amplitude of 5-7 mm and a fast frequency of 80-120 times/min when the needle was inserted to a suitable depth. When the sensation of needling was attained, the two pairs of positive and negative electrodes of type G6805-Ⅱelectro-acupuncture apparatus were connected to the Shousanli （LI 10） and Waiguan （SJ5） acupoints of the upper limb, as well as the Zusanli （S36） and Yanglingquan（GB 34） acupoints of the lower limb, respectively. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： The Fugl-Meyer evaluation method was used to assess upper limb movement, lower limb movement, sensory stimulation of all limbs, balance, and joint range of motion. RESULTS： Upper-lower limb motor function, limb sensory function, balance, and joint range of motion were significantly ameliorated following treatment, compared with pre-treatment （P 〈0.01）. There was no significant difference in various indexes between the two groups after treatment （P 〉0.05）. CONCLUSION： Acupoint electrogymnastics and traditional electroacupuncture exhibited similar curative effects in the treatment of stroke hemiplegia.展开更多

Methods: Eighty stro ke patients with spastic hemiplegia were evenly randomized into control grou p and treatment group. Forty cases of treatment group were given with acupun cture of Jiaji (夹脊 EX-B2) from T1 to L5, while forty cases of control gro up were treated with conventional acupoints as Jianyu (肩NFDA1 LI 15), Quchi (曲池 LI 11), Huantiao (环跳 GB 30), Zusanli (足三里 ST 36), Kunlun (昆仑 BL 60), etc. o n the diseased side, once daily, with 10 sessions being one therapeutic course, and 3 courses all together. The modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) and neurological d eficit grading scale (NDS) were used as the indexes to assess the therapeutic ef fects. Results: After treatment, the scores of NDS of both treat ment and control groups reduced and the difference value between post- and pre-treatment of tr ea tment group was significantly bigger than that of control group. MAS showed a si milar tendency in both groups. Of the 40 cases in treatment and control groups, 6 and 1 were cured, 20 and 15 had marked improvement, 9 and 11 had improvement, 4 and 8 failed, 1 and 5 got worse, with the total effective rates being 87.5% an d 67.5% respectively. The therapeutic effect of treatment group was significantl y superior to that of control group (P<0.01). Conc lusion: Acupuncture of Jiaji ( EX-B2) is superior to acupuncture of conventional acupoints in alleviating the state of spastic hemiplegia of apoplexy.
文摘目的:研究双侧经颅直流电刺激(dual-hemispheric transcranial direct current stimulation,Dual-tDCS)对慢性期脑卒中患者上肢运动功能的影响,为治疗慢性期脑卒中上肢功能障碍提供基于神经机制的理论依据。方法:选取某院24例慢性期脑卒中上肢运动功能障碍患者,按照随机数字表法将其分为研究组(n=13)和对照组(n=11)。对照组采用tDCS伪刺激联合常规康复治疗,研究组采用Dual-tDCS联合常规康复治疗。治疗前后,采用Fugl-Meyer运动功能评定量表上肢部分(Fugl-Meyer assessment upper limb scale,FMA-UL)及日常生活活动能力(activities of daily living,ADL)测评量表对患者活动能力进行评估。对比治疗前后初级运动皮层(M1区)与全脑功能连接(functional connectivity,FC)的变化。使用SPSS 24.0统计学软件进行数据分析。结果:治疗后,2组患者的FMA-UL、ADL评分比治疗前均显著提高,且研究组评分明显高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。M1区与全脑FC分析显示,治疗后对照组健侧M1区到患侧枕中回、健侧舌回、健侧角回FC降低(P<0.01);患侧M1区未见FC变化脑区。治疗后研究组健侧M1区到健侧小脑、健侧小脑蚓部FC降低,到患侧中央前回FC增加(P<0.01);患侧M1区到患侧小脑、患侧颞中回FC增加,到健侧中央前回FC降低(P<0.01)。结论:Dual-tDCS对大脑的神经调控作用可改善慢性期卒中患者运动和非运动相关脑区的FC,可能是慢性期脑卒中上肢运动功能障碍的康复机制。
