Clinical Observations on Du Meridian-unblocking and Blood Stasis-removing Moxibustion for the Treatment of Vascular Cognitive Impairment
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Objective To investigate the efficacy of Du meridian-unblocking and blood stasis-removing moxibustion in improving cognitive function in patients with vascular cognitive impairment and provide a basis for clinical treatment.Method Sixty patients with vascular cognitive impairment were enrolled and randomly allocated to a moxibustion group of 30 cases and a Western drug group of 30 cases.An evaluation was made using the Mini Mental State Examination(MMSE),the Activities of Daily Living(ADL),the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA) and the Syndrome Differentiation Scale of Vascular Dementia(SDSVD) before and after treatment.The data were analyzed statistically.Result The MMSE-based evaluation of the clinical therapeutic effects showed that the total efficacy rate was 80.0% in the moxibustion group and 60.0% in the Western drug group;there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P0.05).The total efficacy rate was higher in the moxibustion group than in the Western drug group.An evaluation with the MMSE and the MoCA showed that there was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the two groups(P0.05) and there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups(P0.05);the therapeutic effect was better in the moxibustion group than in the Western drug group.An evaluation with the ADL showed that there was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the two groups(P0.05) and no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P0.05).An evaluation with the SDSVD showed that there was a statistically significant pre-/post-treatment difference in the moxibustion group(P0.05).Conclusion Du meridian-unblocking and blood stasis-removing moxibustion is better than oral nimodipine in improving cognitive function in patients with vascular cognitive impairment.It is an effective way to treat vascular cognitive impairment.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
