Abstract:
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of probucol combined with atorvastatin in treatment of stenosis carotid atherosclerosis.MethodsEighty-six patients with stenosis carotid atherosclerosis were separated into two groups with 43 cases each by random digits table.The patients were treated with probucol combined with atorvastatin in observation group and atorvastatin only in control group.The changes of arteriosclerotic plaque and blood fat pre- and poet-treatment were observed.Results There was no significant difference in the levels of lumen area (LN) and intima-media thickness (IMT) pre-treatment between two groups (P＞ 0.05).Compared with pre-treatment,the levels of LN and IMT post-treatment were significantly decreased in observation group(P ＜ 0.05 ),while no significant difference in control group (P ＞0.05).There was significant difference in the levels of LN and IMT post-treatment between two groups [(0.59 ±0.19) cm2 vs.(0.72 ±0.28) cm2,(2.76 ±0.41 ) mm vs.(3.27 ±0.57) mm](P＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the levels of total cholesterol (TC),triacylglycerol (TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) pre-treatment between two groups (P ＞0.05).Compared with pre-treatment,the levels of TC,TG,LDL-C post-treatment were decreased,HDL-C was increased,there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05 ).Post-treatment,the levels of TC,TG,LDL-C in observation group were lower and HDL-C was higher than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Probucol combined with atorvastatin in treatment of stenosis carotid atherosclerosis can improve arteriosclerotic plaque and low blood fat,which can be applied in clinic.
