Buyang Huanwu Decoction With Wuling Powder for Acute Ischemic Stroke (BYHW-WL)
Buyang Huanwu Decoction Combined With Wuling Powder as Adjunctive Therapy for Acute Ischemic Stroke: A Randomized, Assessor-Blinded, Controlled Clinical Study
Acute ischemic stroke is a common cause of disability. Standard Western medical treatment is widely used, but some patients continue to have neurological impairment and difficulty with daily activities after stroke.
This study evaluated whether Buyang Huanwu Decoction combined with Wuling Powder, when added to standard Western medical treatment, could help improve recovery in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive either standard Western medical treatment alone or standard Western medical treatment plus Buyang Huanwu Decoction combined with Wuling Powder for 14 days.
The study assessed neurological function, activities of daily living, disability outcomes, and short-term safety. Blood samples were also collected to explore changes in serum metabolites and redox-related biomarkers that may be related to treatment response. A non-stroke reference group was included only for serum metabolomic comparison and was not part of the randomized treatment comparison.

Szczegółowy opis
This single-center, randomized, assessor-blinded, controlled clinical study was designed to evaluate Buyang Huanwu Decoction combined with Wuling Powder as an adjunct to standard Western medical treatment in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Eligible patients with acute ischemic stroke were randomly assigned to receive standard Western medical treatment alone or standard Western medical treatment plus Buyang Huanwu Decoction combined with Wuling Powder for 14 days. Because the intervention involved an oral herbal decoction, participant blinding was not feasible. Clinical outcome assessors, laboratory technicians, and metabolomics analysts were blinded to group allocation.
The clinical part of the study focused on neurological function, activities of daily living, disability outcomes, and short-term safety. These were assessed using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, Barthel Index, modified Rankin Scale, and adverse event monitoring.
The exploratory mechanistic part of the study examined serum drug-derived constituents, untargeted serum metabolomic profiles, and redox-related biomarkers. Serum samples were collected from patients with acute ischemic stroke before and after treatment. A non-stroke reference group provided serum samples for metabolomic comparison only and was not included in the randomized treatment comparison.

Change in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS; 0-42) score from baseline to Day 14
Ramy czasowe: Baseline and Day 14
|
The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale was used to assess neurological deficit severity in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Scores were assessed before treatment and after 14 days of treatment. A lower score indicates less severe neurological impairment. Scale: 0-42 Higher score = worse neurological deficit Lower score = improvement |
Baseline and Day 14

|
Change in Barthel Index (0-100) score from baseline to Day 14
Ramy czasowe: Baseline and Day 14
|
Range: 0-100 Higher score = better activities of daily living The Barthel Index was used to assess activities of daily living in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Scores were assessed before treatment and after 14 days of treatment.
A higher score indicates better ability to perform activities of daily living.
