Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1.Patients with confirmed ischemic stroke evidenced by clear imaging diagnostics; 2.Meeting the TCM diagnostic criteria for wind-stroke affecting the meridians, with syndrome differentiation of phlegm-stasis obstructing collaterals (TCM diagnostic criteria are established with reference to the "National Standards of the People's Republic of China: Criteria for Diagnosis and Therapeutic Efficacy of TCM Diseases and Syndromes." The syndrome differentiation criteria for phlegm-stasis obstructing collaterals adopt the "Diagnostic Scale for Syndrome Elements of Ischemic Stroke," requiring simultaneous fulfillment of phlegm-dampness syndrome and blood-stasis syndrome); 3.Aged between 18 and 75 years (inclusive); 4.National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score between 6 and 20 (inclusive); 5.Disease course within 14 to 30 days (inclusive) after onset, representing patients in the recovery phase of stroke; 6.Patients or their legal representatives have provided informed consent and signed the informed consent form.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Patients with cerebral infarction accompanied by impaired consciousness (NIHSS score Ia item = 2 points), transient ischemic attack (TIA), or intracerebral hemorrhage after cerebral infarction; 2. Patients with mRS score = 2 points prior to the current onset; 3. Patients who have undergone vascular reperfusion therapy (e.g., intravenous thrombolysis, endovascular intervention, etc.) after the current onset; 4. Patients with hepatic or renal dysfunction (alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or aspartate aminotransferase (AST) > 2.0 × upper limit of normal (ULN), serum creatinine > 1.5 × ULN); 5. Patients with pre-existing mental disorders, cognitive impairment, or dementia prior to the current onset; 6. Patients with other life-threatening severe diseases with an expected survival time of less than 6 months; 7. Patients with poor glycemic or blood pressure control despite systematic treatment (glycated hemoglobin = 8.5 mmol/L; systolic blood pressure > 180 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure > 110 mmHg); 8. Patients with other conditions affecting limb motor function evaluation, including pre-existing limb motor dysfunction due to claudication, rheumatoid arthritis, gouty arthritis, etc., or neurologic deficits, peripheral neuropathy, or diabetic gangrene caused by diabetes mellitus; 9. Pregnant, breastfeeding women, or those planning pregnancy in the near future, or unwilling to use contraceptive measures; 10. Patients with allergy to ginkgo-derived drugs or foods; 11.
