NCT04012268

Brief Summary

There are a series of symptoms such as ischemic stroke、transient ischemic attack 、hemorrhagic stroke、headache 、seizure and so on in moyamoya disease( MMD) patients .Nowadays, revascularization is the only effective way for ischemic MMD and there is no effective conservative treatment for MMD. This study was to explore the safety and efficacy of remote ischemic conditioning(RIC ) on adult MMD patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • improvement ratio of mean cerebral blood flow

    Cerebral blood flow refers to the flow of blood through a certain cross-sectional area of cerebrovascular in a unit time. Patients' CBF will be detected by arterial spin labeling. In each hemisphere, middle cerebral artery territory was divided into ten regions according to Albert Stroke Program Early CT score (ASPECTS), regions of interest (ROI) were drawn manually in each of territory of MCA to determine the absolute CBF values. improvement ratio of mean CBF= mCBF atter treatment-mCBF baseline/mCBF baseline.

    change from the baseline to12 months after treatment

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • incidence of ischemic stroke

    from the baseline to 12 months after treatment

  • incidence of transient ischemic attack

    from the baseline to 12 months after treatment

  • incidence of hemorrhagic stroke

    from the baseline to 12 months after treatment

  • The level of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9)

    change from the baseline to 3, 6, 12 months after treatment

  • The level of vascular endothelial growth factor

    change from the baseline to 3, 6, 12 months after treatment

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

RIC group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients allocated to the RIC group will undergo RIC procedure during which bilateral arm cuffs are inflated to a pressure of 50 mmHg over systolic blood pressure for five cycles of 5 min followed by 5 min of relaxation of the cuffs. They will also accept medication treatment by professional neurologists.

Device: RIC

Medication group

OTHER

Patients allocated to Medication group will accept medication treatment by professional neurologists.

Drug: Aspirin
