Curative Effect of Intensive Lipid-Lowering with Atorvastatin in Patients with Acute Cerebral Infarction and Its Influence on Blood Fat and Serum Inflammatory Factors Levels / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

Objective:To discuss the influence and curative effect of intensive lipid-lowering with atorvastatin on blood fat and ser-um inflammatory factors levels in the patients with acute cerebral infarction. Methods:Totally 94 cases of patients with acute cerebral infarction were divided into the intensive group(n=47) and the ordinary group (n=47). The patients in the two groups were given the basic medical treatment, such as reducing intracranial pressure and dehydration, controlling blood pressure and blood sugar, anti-platelet aggregation, neural protection and etc. The patients in the ordinary group were orally given 20mg atorvastatin calcium tablets, once a day, while the patients in the intensive group were additionally given 40mg atorvastatin calcium tablets, once a day, and the treatment course was 8 weeks. The changes of blood fat index and serum inflammatory factors of hs-CRP, TNF-αand IL-10 in the two groups before and after the medical treatment were detected, and the clinical curative effect was compared as well. Results:After the 8-week medical treatment, TC, TG and LDL-C levels in the two groups were declined at different degree, while HDL-C levels were in-creased at different degree (P0. 05). Conclusion:Intensive lipid-lower-ing with atorvastatin has significant curative effect with favorable security on acute cerebral infarction, which can obviously improve the degree of neural function defect, and the mechanism may related with reducing blood fat, serum hs-CRP and TNF-αlevels, increasing serum IL-10 levels and inhibiting topical inflammatory reactions.
