ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the influence of hemoperfusion(HP) on microinflammatory state and atherosclerosis in uremic patients .Methods Thirty‐six patients with uremia were randomly assigned into 2 groups ,18 cases in eath group .The hemo‐dialysis(HD) group took hemodialysis for 3 times per week ,4 h per time;the HP+ HD group took once HP per week on the basis of HD .The levels of C‐reactive protein(CRP) ,total cholesterol(TC) ,triglyceride(TG) ,urea nitrogen(BUN) and serum creatinine (Cr) were measured before therapy and in six months after therapy .The atherosclerotic plaque size was detected by ultrasound with fine resolution .Results The levels of CRP ,TG and TC after treatment in the HP+ HD group were significantly decreased com‐pared with those before treatment and the HD group (P0 .05) .Conclusion HP can alleviate the inflam‐matory reaction and decrease the atherosclerosis occurrence .
ABSTRACT
Pleuritis rat model was adopted to observe the influence of Eryngium foetidun L . on in- flammatory cell factors (TNF-a, IL- 6 and NO) . The results showed that Eryngium foetidum L. can decrease the contents of TNF-a , IL- 6 and NO in serum. It is indicated that the anti- inflam- matory effect of Eryngium foetidum L. is probably related to the decrease of the contents of the above factors.
