ABSTRACT

Objective:To study influence of folic acid ,vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 on vascular endothelial function serum level of homocysteine (Hcy) and living quality in hypertensive patients with acute cerebral infraction .Meth‐odsA total of 92 hypertensive patients with acute cerebral infraction treated in our hospital from Feb 2016 to Oct 2017 were randomly and equally divided into routine treatment group and combined treatment group (received folic acid ,vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 based on routine treatment group ).Two groups were both treated for 12 weeks Flow‐mediated dilation (FMD) ,serum levels of Hcy and nitric oxide (NO ) , United States National Institutes of Health Stroke Score (NIHSS) score and Barthel index score before and after treatment were compared between two groups.Results:Compared with before treatment ,after treatment ,there were significant reductions in serum level of Hcy and NIHSS score ,and significant rise in Barthel index score in two groups ,and there was significant rise in serum level of NO [ (50. 20 ± 11.18) μmol／L vs.(66. 53 ± 10. 66) μmol／L] in combined treatment group , P＜0. 01 all.Before and after treatment , there were no significant difference in FMD in two groups , and no significant difference in serum level of NO in routine treatment group , P＞0.05 all.Compare with routine treatment group after treatment ,there were significant reductions in serum level of Hcy [ (21.58 ± 2.24 ) μmol／L vs.(17.27 ± 2.19) μmol／L] and NIHSS score [(20. 39 ± 3. 19) scores vs .(16.12 ± 1.15) scores] ,and significant rise in NO level [ (53.76 ± 11. 67) μmol／L比(66.53 ± 10. 66) μmol／L] ,Barthel index score [ (62.27 ± 20.58) scores vs .(79. 58 ± 21. 24) scores] in combined treatment group , P＝0.001 all.Conclusion:Folic acid ,vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 can effectively improve vascular endothelial function ,reduce serum level of Hcy ,increase serum level of NO ,improve neurological function and activities of living quality ,which is worth extending .
