Abstract
Objective To study the effect of acupuncture and medication on plasma ealcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP) levels in patients with acute cerebral infarction. Methods 90 patients with simple obesity were ran-domly divided into acupuncture and medication group( n = 45) and medication group( n = 45 ). All patients were ex-amined the plasma level of CGRP to observe clinical curative effect before and after 1 month treatment. Results The total effective rate of acupuncture and medication group 91.1% (41/45) was significantly higher than that in medication group 77.8 % (36/45) (P < 0.05) ; after treatment the plasma level of CGRP in two groups were signifi-candy higher than those before treatment(P < 0.05) , acupuncture and medication group was significantly higher than that in medication group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture in combination with drug could cut down nerve cell damage, and it may be significantly related to levels of CGRP in patients with acute cerebral infarction. Key words: Acupuncture; Cerebral infarction; Calcitonin gene-related peptide
