重视中西医结合脑-肢体协同的时空效应及其机制研究

Abstract

Abstract:

The theoretical framework of the integrated traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and Western medicine brain-limb coordinated rehabilitation encompasses twelve intervention models, formed by combining four spatial combinations (brain-area Western medicine/TCM + upper/lower limb intervention of TCM/Western medicine) and three temporal sequences (brain-first, limb-first and simultaneous), exhibiting significant condition dependence (e.g., types of disease, treatment course, baseline status) and population heterogeneity. Transcranial direct current stimulation combined with limb rehabilitation can produce synergistic effects in some cases, but may also result in limited benefits or antagonistic effects. Currently, there is a particular lack of clinical studies that systematically compare the effects of different temporal sequences (brain-first, limb-first, simultaneous). Functional near-infrared spectroscopy has been relatively maturely applied to reveal the brain function regulation mechanisms underlying brain-limb coordinated rehabilitation.

Key words: brain-limb coordinated rehabilitation, integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, transcranial direct current stimulation, spatiotemporal combinatorial effects
