ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the lipid regulatory effect of Xuezhikang (XZK) and its effects on serum oxidized low density lipoprotein (OX-LDL), C-reactive protein (CRP) and fibrinogen (FIB) in patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>UAP patients with hyperlipidemia were treated with XZK 0.6 g, orally taken, twice a day for 2 successive months followed by half dosage for 2 months. To UAP patients with normal blood lipids, Vit E was given orally for 4 months. Levels of blood lipids, OX-LDL, CRP, FIB at the time of entry, 1st and 2nd month of the therapeutic course were observed and end-point events in the two groups was compared.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>XZK can reduce the serum level of total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein after being administered for 1 month, and the effect further elevated after 2 months. Its effect in lowering triglycerides and increasing high density lipoprotein initiated after 2 months administration. Compared with effect of Vit E, XZK can significantly lower the serum OX-LDL, CRP and FIB after 2 months administration, and reduce the end-point events in 4 months.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>XZK has good regulatory effect on blood lipids, it also can inhibit the development of inflammation in coronary plaque, therefore, is beneficial to the prognosis of UAP patients.</p>
