Effect of Specific Mode Electroacupuncture Stimulation Combined with NGF on Dysphagia After Ischaemic Stroke: a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Ischemic stroke is a common clinical disease, often accompanied by dysphagia. At present, clinical treatment for patients with dysphagia after ischemic stroke is limited. The emergence of NGF has surprised the field of neurorehabilitation, but the clinical effect is not satisfactory. The main problem is that NGF is a macromolecular material with a molecular weight of 13.4 KD, which is difficult to penetrate the blood brain barrier. A large number of previous studies in our team have found that electroacupuncture with specific stimulation mode can open the blood brain barrier and induce NGF into the brain. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of specific mode electroacupuncture stimulation combined with NGF treatment on patients with dysphagia after ischemic stroke and to explore the mechanism of this combination therapy to improve brain function, which creates a new method and theoretical basis for nerve rehabilitation of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.
