Internal Medicine

70 cases of ischemic stroke were randomly divided into a treatment group of 35 cases and a control group of 35 cases. The treatment group was treated with injection at cervical Jiaji points with routine acupuncture, and the control group with only routine acupuncture. Two weeks constituted one course with an interval of one day between courses. After 2 courses and 4 courses, changes of ET and CGRP were detected. The effects were evaluated after 4 courses.  Results and Conclusion: Points injection at cervical Jiaji can significantly decrease ET and increase CGRP level. The effective rate was 88.6%in the treatment group and 68.6% in the control group with a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05).
