Study arms

  • Experimental
    Median nerve electrical stimulation group

    The optimal median nerve electrical stimulation treatment was given

    Other: Median nerve electrical stimulation treatment

  • Experimental
    Huperzine A injection + median nerve electrical stimulation group

    Huperzine A injection can be administered before median nerve electrical stimulation to improve the therapeutic effect of electrical stimulation. Huperzine A injection: intramuscular injection, 1ml,0.2mg once a day, the course of treatment was 7 days.

    Other: Median nerve electrical stimulation treatment · Drug: Huperzine A injection

  • Experimental
    Huperzine A injection + median nerve electrical stimulation + Ginkgo leaf dropping pill group

    Huperzine A injection can be administered before median nerve electrical stimulation to improve the therapeutic effect of electrical stimulation. After the end of the electrical stimulation treatment, ginkgo biloba dropping pills were given as long-term administration to maintain the therapeutic effect. Huperzine A injection: intramuscular injection, 1ml,0.2mg once a day, the course of treatment was 7 days. Ginkgo leaf dropping pills: Oral, each pill weighs 63mg, 5 pills/time, 3 times/day, the course of treatment is 3 months.

Interventions

  • OtherMedian nerve electrical stimulation treatment

    Median nerve electrical stimulation is an electrical stimulation therapy in which the electrode is placed at the median nerve point 2cm above the carpal wrinkles on the palmar surface of the wrist joint. Generally, the right median nerve is used for electrical stimulation. Electrical stimulation improves cognitive function by stimulating neurons in the brain and improving information transmission between neurons. When electrical current stimulates the brain, it can increase the activity level of neurons and promote the signal transmission between neurons. Its mechanism of action includes the regulation of neurotransmitter acetylcholine, thereby enhancing cognitive function.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. to assess the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score

    Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE): total score ranges from 0 to 30. Higher scores indicate better cognitive function.

    Time frame: baseline,Day10,Day90

Secondary outcomes

  1. to assess the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score

    Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA): total score ranges from 0 to 30. Higher scores indicate better cognitive function.

    Time frame: baseline,Day10,Day90

  2. to assess the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive (ADAS-cog) score

    Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale (ADAS-cog): total score ranges from 0 to 70. Higher scores indicate worse cognitive performance.

    Time frame: baseline,Day10,Day90

  3. to assess the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) score

    Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-24 item): total score ranges from 0 to 76. Higher scores indicate more severe depressive symptoms.

    Time frame: baseline,Day10,Day90

  4. to assess the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA) score

    Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA): total score ranges from 0 to 56. Higher scores indicate more severe anxiety symptoms.

    Time frame: baseline,Day10,Day90
