ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of cilostazol combined with alprostadil in the treatment of peripheral arterial disease(PAD). METHODS:A total of 68 PAD patients in our hospital from Jan. 2015 to Jan. 2016 were di-vided into observation group(34 cases)and control group(34 cases)according to random number table. Control group was given basical treatment,and Alprostadil injection 2 mL+0.9% Sodium chloride injection 100 mL,ivgtt,qd. Observation group was addi-tionally given Cilostazol tablets 100 mg,po,bid,on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 30 days. Clinical effi-cacies of 2 groups were observed. The hemorheology indexes(hematocrit,whole blood high-shearing viscosity,erythrocyte aggre-gation index,erythrocyte deformation index,plasma viscosity),inflammatory factor indexes(TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8, hs-CRP),oxida-tion stress indexes(GSH-Px,SOD,T-Aoc,MDA),arteriosclerosis indexes(ABI,TBI,dorsalis pedis artery blood flow)were de-termined before and after treatment. The occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS:Total response rate of observation group (91.18%)was significantly higher than that of control group(79.41%),with statistical significance(P0.05). After treatment,hematocrit,whole blood high-shearing viscosity,erythrocyte aggregation index,erythrocyte deformation index,plasma viscosity,the levels of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-8,hs-CRP and MDA in 2 groups were de-creased significantly;while the levels of GSH-Px,SOD,T-Aoc,ABI,TBI and dorsalis pedis artery blood flow were increased sig-nificantly;the improvement of above indexes in observation group was significantly better than control group,with statistical signif-icance(P0.05). CONCLUSIONS:For PAD,cilostazol combined with alprostadil can effectively improve hemorheolo-gy indexes,inflammatory factor indexes,oxidation stress indexes and arteriosclerosis indexes with good safety.
