Abstract:
【Objective】 To assess the effects of traditional Chine se medicine composited Xinmaitong (XMT) capsule on treating ischemia cardiac dis ease. 【Methods】 Sixty coronary heart disease patients with myocardial ischemia were divided randomly into two groups. XMT group (30 cases) was treated with XM T and western medicine, and control group (30 cases) with western medicine. The changes of the scores of clinical symptoms, the total ischemia burden (TIB), the plasma endothelin (ET), the nitric oxide (NO), the super oxide dismutase (SOD), and the malonyldialdehyde (MDA) levels were observed before and after treatment . 【Results】 After treatment with XMT, the scores of clinical symptoms, TIB, ET and MDA levels were significantly decreased (P<0.01), the levels of NO and SOD were significantly increased (P<0.01) in XMT group. Comparing with contr ol group, these changes were statistically different (P<0.01). 【Conclusions 】 XMT capsule can act against myocardial ischemia effectively, one of the mecha nisms of which is protecting the function of vascular endothelium and resisting lipid peroxidation injury. The effect of adding XMT capsule on conventional trea tment with western medicine was better than that with western medicine only.
