The research involves 946 patients aged 29 - 81 (average age 74) suffering from various types of cerebral atherosclerosis. 568 (60.04%) patients underwent transcatheter treatment—Test Group. 378 (39.96%) patients underwent conservative treatment—Control Group. The examination plan included laboratory diagnostics, assessment of dementia severity (CDR), assessment of cognitive impairment (MMSE), evaluation of the activities of daily living (IB), cerebral computed tomography (CT), cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), cerebral scintigraphy (SG), rheoencephalography (REG), cerebral multi-gated angiography (MUGA). To restore the blood supply, the method of transcatheter laser revascularization was applied;high-energy pulsed lasers were used for major intracranial arteries treatment, and low energy CW lasers—for distal intracranial branches treatment. Test Group: 459 (80.81%) patients had good clinical outcome, 91 (16.02%)—satisfactory clinical outcome, 18 (3.17%)—relatively satisfactory clinical outcome;relatively positive clinical outcome was not obtained in any case. Control Group: good clinical outcome was not obtained in any case;65 (17.20%) patients had satisfactory clinical outcome, 121 (23.26%)—relatively satisfactory clinical outcome, 192 (50.79%)—relatively positive clinical outcome. The method of transcatheter laser revascularization of cerebral vessels is a physiological, effective and low-invasive treatment for patients suffering from atherosclerosis of the brain. The obtained results last up to 10 years and more;it causes regression of mental and motor disorders, promotes regression of dementia and largely improves the patients’ quality of life;it has virtually no alternative—which makes the proposed method significantly different from conservative treatment methods.展开更多

Methods: Eighty -three patients with CCI were randomly divided into YXQNG and nimodipine (ND) groups, the score of vertigo and the change in cerebral blood velocity before and after treatment were observed. And in the animal experiment, the authors adopted bilateral ligation of cervical carotid communis artery to establish CCI rat models in order to observe the effect of YXQNG and ND on incubation period of vertigo in rats and on memory performance. Results: After clinical treatment, the vertigo score of YXQNG group was 2.34, and that of the ND group was 4.18, the comparison between the two groups showed that the difference was significant ( P < 0.05 ). After treatment, the middle cerebral artery mean velocity (MCA Vm) of YXQNG group was 64.78 cm/s, vertebral artery mean velocity (VA Vm) was 29.78 cm/s, while that of ND group was 60.34 cm/s and 23.23 cm/s respectively, the comparison between these two groups showing statistical significance and the difference being obvious ( P <0.05). Experimental study showed that the rats in the model group after 12 weeks learning and memory were markedly lowered, the vertigo incubation period significantly lengthened, and compared with that of the model group, learning and memory of the YXQNG group was markedly improved and vertigo incubation period shortened, with the difference from that of the ND group insignificant, P >0.05. Conclusion: YXQNG could effectively improve CCI patients' vertigo and other clinical symptoms and increase the cerebral blood flow, lessen the vertigo incubation of model group rats, elevate model group rats' memory performance.展开更多
