ABSTRACT

Objective To study the cardiac function effect of allopurinol for hypemricemia combined with dilated cardiomyopathy patients.Methods One hundred and twenty hypemricemia combined with dilated cardiomyopathy patients were divided into allopurinol group and control group according to the treatment method with 60 cases each.All the patients were given conventional treatment,the control group was added the nitroprusside treatment,and the allopurinol group was added the allopurinol and nitroprusside treatment.The treatment period was 3 months.Results The total effective rate in allopurinol group was significantly higher than that in control group [90.0％ (54/60) vs.75.0％ (45/60)],there was statistical difference (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,the left ventricular ejection fraction and left ventricular posterior wall thickness at end-systole in allopurinol group were significantly higher than those in control group [(67.85 ± 7.12)％ vs.(30.78 ±7.00)％ and (1.40 ±0.20) mm vs.(1.16 ±0.18) mm[,but the left ventricular internal diameter at end-systole,left ventricular internal diameter at end-diastole and left ventricular posterior wall thickness at end-diastole were significantly lower than those in control group [(4.72 ± 0.41) mm vs.(6.48 ± 0.47) mm,(2.93 ± 0.32) mm vs.(5.56 ± 0.62) mm and (0.77 ± 0.13) mm vs.(0.92 ± 0.18) mm],there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,The uric acid,urea nitrogen and creatinine were significantly lower than those in control group [(45.43 ± 11.24) μ mol/L vs.(167.23 ± 19.22) μ mol/L,(10.23 ± 7.12)mmol/L vs.(40.93 ± 8.09)mmol/L and (32.01 ± 8.34) mmol/L vs.(78.09 ±9.11) mmol/L],there were statistical differences (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Allopurinol used for treating hyperuricemia combined with dilated cardiomyopathy patients can reduce uric acid,early reversal the atherosclerosis and improve heart function,it should be widely applied research.
