Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the therapeutic effect of atorvastatin combined irbesartan on arterial and ventricular remodeling in patients with essential hypertension (EH).Methods:A total of 114 EH patients of our hospital were selected.According to therapeutic protocol,they were divided into irbesartan group (n=72,only received irbesar-tan treatment)and combined treatment (n=42,received atorvastatin combined irbesartan therapy).After three-month treatment,carotid intima-media thickness (IMT),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd),inter-ventricular septal thickness (IVST),left ventricular end-diastolic posterior wall thickness (LVPWTd)and wall mo-tion score index (WMSI)were compared between two groups.Blood pressure and blood lipid levels were compared between two groups.Results:Compared with irbesartan group,there were significant reductions in IMT [(0.98± 0.13)mm vs.(0.81±0.08)mm],LVEDd [(55.2±3.9)mm vs.(43.3±2.8)mm],IVST [(14.9±2.6)mm vs. (11.5±1.8)mm]and WMSI [(1.67±0.22)vs.(1.39±0.16)],P <0.05 all;there were significant reductions in levels of blood pressure [(144±12)/ (94±8)mmHg vs.(136±16)/ (86±8)mmHg],total cholesterol [(5.87 ±0.96)mmol/L vs.(4.53±0.57)mmol/L]and low density lipoprotein cholesterol [(3.46±0.59)mmol/L vs. (2.68±0.42)mmol/L],P <0.05 all,and significant rise in level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol [(0.87± 0.13)mmol/L vs.(1.36±0.24)mmol/L,P <0.05]in combined treatment group.Conclusion:Atorvastatin com-bined irbesartan can significantly improve blood lipid,arterial and ventricular remodeling in EH patients.
