Effect of argatroban on C-reactive protein and therapeutic efficacy in patients with malignant tumor complicated by acute lower limbs deep venous thrombosis / 肿瘤研究与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of argatroban on C-reactive protein (CRP) and therapeutic efficacy in patients of malignant tumor complicated by acute lower limbs deep venous thrombosis (DVT).Methods 56 patients of malignant tumor complicated by acute lower limbs DVT were randomly divided into two groups.In observation group (n =28),argatroban was given intravenously as anticoagulation.Urokinase as thrombolysis and warfarin as anticoagulation were used in the control group (n =28).The concentrations of serum CRP were detected before treatment and on the 14th day of post-treatment in observation group and control group.Recanalization and therapeutic effect of DVT were compared.Results Before treatment,there was no significant differences in the serum CRP concentrations between observation group and control group [(46.44±28.82) mg/L vs (45.96±29.40) rmg/L,F =0.004,P =0.951].On the 14th day of post-treatment,the CRP concentrations in observation group and control group were lower than those of pretreatment (F =25.996,P ＜ 0.05,F =4.828,P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the 14th day of post-treatment,the CRP concentration of observation group was lower than that of control group [(16.97±10.22) mg/L vs (31.63± 18.07) mg/L,F =13.965,P ＜ 0.01].Recanalization rate of observation group on the 14th day of post-treatment (96.43 ％,27/28) was higher than that in control group (67.86 ％,19/28) (x2 =8.204,P =0.017).Therapeutic effect rate of observation group on the 14th day of post-treatment (96.43 ％,27/28) was higher than that in control group (75.00 ％,21/28) (x2 =6.205,P =0.045).Conclusion Argatroban can decrease serum level of CRP in patient of malignant tumor complicated by acute lower limbs DVT,which is favorable for improvement of clinical effectiveness.
