Abstract: The location of the pathological focus on the film of CT scan was
related to the degree of paralysis, and to the result of acupuncture in
hemiplegia patients.
In retrospective analysis of the clinical data, we
found some inter-linking relationships. In general, early treatment (first
3 weeks) with acupuncture produces better result (improvement in 90.9 of
the patients treated) than the treatment initiated three weeks after stroke
(improvement in 71.4 of the patients treated). |
