RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effectiveness and safety of probucol combined with rosuvastatin in the treatment of vascu-lar dementia(VD). METHODS:In retrospective study,clinical information of 88 VD patients selected from neurology department of our hospital during May 2013-Feb. 2015 were divided into observation group and control group according to therapy plan,with 44 cas-es in each group. Both groups received conventional treatments such as controlling blood pressure and blood glucose,anticoagulation. Control group was additionally given Rosuvastatin calcium tablets orally 20 mg,at bedtime;observation group was additionally given Probucol tablet 0.5 g,bid,after meal,on the basis of control group. Both groups received treatment for consecutive 3 months. MMSE and ADL score were compared between 2 groups before and after treatment as well as the levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,HDL-C,CRP, TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,SOD and MDA. The occurrence of ADR was also observed. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statisti-cal significance in above indexes between 2 groups(P>0.05). Compared to before treatment,MMSE and ALD score,serum SOD lev-el of 2 groups were increased significantly,while serum levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,CRP,TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1βand MDA were de-creased significantly after treatment,with statistical significance(P0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Probucol combined with rosuvastatin is better than rosuvastatin alone in reducing blood lipid,serum inflamma-tory factors and oxidant stress indexes levels,improving cognitive function and quality of life with good safety.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the Video?Electroencephalography(VEEG)characteristics and abnormal rate among healthy elderly. Meth?ods According to the age,120 healthy elders were divided into groups A,B,and C. Group A has 57 subjects,aged 60?69 years old;group B has 42 people,aged 70?79 years;group C has 21 individuals,aged≥80 years. Chi square and Rank sum test were used to calculate abnormal rate of VEEG. Additionally,characteristics of alpha、slow wave and Iconic sleep wave were analyzed. Result The total abnormal rate of VEEG was 42.5%, and it was particularly high(76.2%)among elderly over 80s. Frequency,amplitude,reactivity of Alpha wave and alpha index decreased as age in?creased. Theta slow wave increased as age increased,abnormal frontal area theta showed an increase among elderly over 80 s. Each sleep cycle iconic sleep wave was gradually decreased in the elderly. No statistical difference was found about sleep spindles and vertex sharp among different groups . Positive occipital sharp transients of sleep(POSTS)decreased as age increased. There was no POSTS among elderly over 80 s. Conclusion Our re?sults showed that abnormal rate is increased in the elderly,while reactivity variation,slow alpha frequency,alpha amplitude,alpha index are de?creased. In addition,the slow waves in frontal area is increased,. sleep cycles becomes less distinct,and the typical wave are decreased.
