MethodsThe patients in Congo China-Congo Friendship Hospital were randomly divided into an acupuncture group and a medicine group, 30 cases in each group. For the acupuncture group, Mailuoning injection was administrated by intravenous drip and acupuncture was given at Sìshéncōng (▪ EX-HN 1), Zhōngw▪n (▪ CV 12), Fēnglóng (▪ ST 40) and Neìguān (▪ PC 6), etc., once daily for 10 consecutive days as a course of treatment. For the medicine group, 20 mL Mailuoning or 500 mL low molecular Dextran injection was administrated by intravenous drip, once each day for 10 consecutive days as a course of treatment. After 3 therapeutic courses, clinical therapeutic effects were assessed. ResultsAfter treatment, the scores for nervous function were significantly decreased in the two groups (both P<0.05), with a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05), the acupuncture group being superior to the medicine group; the effective rate (93.3%, 28/30) of the acupuncture group was significantly higher than that (80.0%, 24/30) of the medicine group (P<0.05).
