ABSTRACT
Objective:
To study therapeutic effects of simvastatin on vascular endothelial cell dysfunction in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods:
According to LDL-C level, a total of 90 CHD patients were divided into simvastatin 20mg group (n=37, LDL-C≥2.5mmol/L), simvastatin 10mg group (n=35, 1.8mmol/L≤LDL-C0.05 all; Compared with routine treatment group, there were significant improvement in FMD [(6.01±0.49)% vs. (9.01±0.39)% vs. (9.01±0.47)%,P0.05 all.Conclusion:
Simvastatin can increase NO concentration and improve vascular endothelial cell dysfunction in CHD patients. Its mechanism may be related with lipid-lowering effect, but independent of its lipid-lowering effect
