Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical efficacy of dapagliflozin for stable coronary heart disease combined with heart failure (HF). METHODS A prospective study method was employed. A total of 158 patients with stable coronary heart disease and HF admitted to our hospital from January 1, 2023, to January 1, 2024, were enrolled. Using a random number table method, they were divided into dapagliflozin group (n=76) and conventional treatment group (n=82). All patients received conventional treatment, including diuretic, aspirin, losartan, metoprolol and statins. Patients in the dapagliflozin group were additionally administered Dapagliflozin tablets at a dose of 10 mg once daily on top of the conventional treatment. The treatment duration was six months. The changes in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), fasting blood glucose, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), the number of angina attacks, the duration of angina attacks, and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. The occurrence of adverse reactions such as renal dysfunction, liver dysfunction, urinary system infections, new-onset dialysis, hypotension and hypoglycemia was evaluated in the two groups during treatment. RESULTS During the study, 16 patients were lost to follow-up. Ultimately, 70 patients in the dapagliflozin group and 72 patients in the conventional treatment group completed the study. Before treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in the aforementioned indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with before treatment, after treatment, both groups showed significant shortening in LVESD and LVEDD, significant increases in LVEF, significant reductions in NT-proBNP and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 levels, and significant reductions in the number of angina attacks and the duration of angina attacks (P<0.05); the improvements in the dapagliflozin group were more significant than those in the conventional treatment group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in fasting blood glucose levels and the incidence of the aforementioned adverse reactions (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Adding dapagliflozin to conventional treatment can shorten LVESD and LVEDD, increase LVEF levels, reduce NT-proBNP and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 levels, and decrease the number and duration of angina attacks in patients with stable coronary heart disease combined with HF, thereby improving their cardiac function, and demonstrates good safety.
