Influence of Electroacupuncture on Learning and Memory Ability in Diabetic Cognitive Dysfunction Patients
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objective: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture(EA) on the learning and memory ability in diabetic cognitive dysfunction patients.Methods: Forty-five cases of diabetic mellitus(DM) patients with cognitive dysfunction were randomly divided into EA group(n=25) and medication group(n=20).For patients of EA group,main acupoints as Sishenchong(EX-HN 1),Baihui(GV 20),bilateral Fengchi(GB 20), Benshen(GB 13) and Neiguan(PC 6) were punctured with filiform needles and stimulated electrically by setting the stimulating parameters being dense-sparse waves,frequency of 14-26 pulses/min,strength of 3-(5 mA) and duration of (30 min).The treatment was conducted once daily,5 times a week and continuously for 6 weeks.Patients of medication group were ordered to take Nimotop((30 mg)/time),3 times everyday and continuously for 6 weeks.Modified Hastgawa Dementia Scale(HDS) and Wilson's Memory Scale(WMS) were used to evaluate the patients' cognitive function,memory ability and general conditions before and after the treatment.Results: After the treatment,according to HDS, of the 20 and 25 cases in medication and EA groups,1(5%) and 4(16%) experienced marked improvement,5(25%) and 15(60%) had moderate improvement,10(50%)and 5(20%) had mild improvement,and 4(20%) and 1(4%) had no improvement, with the total effective rates being 80% and 96% respectively.Rank test showed that the therapeutic effect of EA group was significantly superior to that of medication group(P0.05) in improving patients' cognitive function.Self-comparison indicated that WMS of both groups increased significantly after the treatment(P0.001,0.05),including adding test of long-term memory and touching test of short-term memory in medication group,counting-down test of long-term memory,association test and touching test of short-term memory in EA group;and the effects of EA were apparently superior to those of medication in raising WMS(MQ),counting-down test and association test(P0.05,0.01).Conclusion: The therapeutic effect of EA is significantly superior to that of Nimotop in improving DM patients' cognitive function,learning and memory ability.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
