Study on Vulnerable Plaque of Carotid Artery With Chinese Herbal and Insects Medicine
Study on Vulnerable Plaque of Carotid Artery With Chinese Herbal and Insects Medicine
The investigators want treat Vulnerable plaque of carotid artery with a herbal and insects
 Chinese medicine. Designing a RCT trial to prove the effect and safety.
Vulnerable plaque of carotid artery is the important intervention target for primary
 prevention and secondary prevention of cerebral arterial thrombosis, but there are no
 effective, safe and prevalent treatment measures against it. The development that traditional
 Chinese medicine has achieved in treating plaque of carotid artery shows that great
 accomplishment could be made within this area. Academia should engage in clinical research on
 regulated treatment methods in traditional Chinese medicine with long-term intervention and
 high patient compliance, providing strong evidence for evidence-based medicine and guidance
 to clinical practice.
