Abstract:
Objective To explore the influence of atorvastatin on the carotid atherosclerotic plaque and prognosis of older apoplexy.Methods 124 patients with carotid atherosclerotic plaque were randomly divided into 2groups,64 cases in the observetion group who had given atorvastatin(20mg) and general,and 60 cases in control group who had given genenal treatment.The relapse rate of apoplexy,the level of blood-fat and live viability condition were compared.Results ( 1 ) In the treatment group,the recurrence rate was 4.7%,and 18.3 % in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(x2=5.76,P < 0.05 ).The two groups of adverse events had no significant difference ( x2=0.00,P > 0.05 ).(2) In the treatment group,after treatment compared with before treatment,after the treatment group compared with the control group after treatment,TC,TG,LDL-C,HDL-C levels were statistically different ( all P < 0.05 ).(3) The life skills of the treatment group after treatment was signiflcantly better than the control group,the difference was statistically significant( x2 =24.18,P < 0.05 ).Conclusion A torvastatin could significantly reduce the level of blood fat,improve prognosis,and reduce the rate of apoplexy,and had good effect.
