Abstract

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of neuromuscular taping decompression technique (NMT) on modifying pain scale in diabetic patients with painful distal symmetrical polyneuropathy (DSPN) at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar, Indonesia. Using a pure experimental design with a pre-test and post-test control group method, 30 patients were included: 15 in the treatment group and 15 in the control group. The treatment group received decompression NMT on the dorsal and plantar aspects of the foot twice a week for four weeks, along with vitamin B complex supplementation. The control group received only vitamin B complex. Result: The Mann-Whitney test showed significant improvement (p <0.05) in the pain scale of the treatment group on day 28, with the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) score being lower than that of the control group. Conclusion: This study demonstrated the significant pain-reducing effect of NMT in DSPN patients. The combination of vitamin B1, B6, and B12 supplementation with 8 NMT sessions over 28 days reduced pain to 0 on the NPRS scale. Treatment twice a week for 4 weeks, alongside vitamin B, led to near-zero pain, with pain-free results expected after 5 treatments over 17 days. NMT combined with vitamin B reduced pain approximately 2 times faster than vitamin B alone.

Abstract

Stroke is the second leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Where the most common occurrence of ischemic stroke is 85% of all stroke cases. Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) is a dimeric glycoprotein with angiogenic and neuroprotective effects. Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) can be used to assess the extent of acute ischemic stroke in the middle cerebral artery territory as a simple semiquantitative instrument. Method a cross-sectional study in acute ischemic stroke patients with an onset of 3-14 days. The VEGF assessed was serum VEGF and ASPECTS assessment to determine the extent of the lesion. Total ASPECT score is 10 points (normal), score > 7 (lesion area < 1/3 MCA), score < 7 (lesion area > 1/3 MCA). Of the 37 patients, the majority of patients were women (62,2%) with hypertension being the most common comorbid. All risk factors had no significant relationship to VEGF levels (p-value>0,005). There was a significant difference between the two ASPECTS categories on serum VEGF levels (p-value=0,001), A significant correlation occurred in serum VEGF levels with ASPECTS (p-value=0,000; r-0,600). Conclusion higher VEGF levels increase cerebral infarction.
