Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of Xueshuantong injection on levels of inflammatory factors and homocysteine (Hcy) in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods 128 patients of acute cerebral infarction who received therapy in the hospital from January 2014 to May 2015 were collected as research objects to retrospectively analyze their clinical materials.According to therapeutic schemes, those patients were divided into control group (n=62) and observation group (n=66).The control group were given conventional treatments, such as anti-platelet aggregation, lipid regulation, maintaining balance of water-electrolyte and acid-base, controlling blood glucose, controlling blood pressure and so on.Besides that, the observation group were given Xueshuantong injection.After two weeks treatment, the curative efficacy, levels of inflammatory factors as high-sensitivity C reactive protein (hs-CRP), tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α), interleukin 8 (IL-8), Hcy and adverse reactions were compared.Results The total efficacy of observation group was 93.9%, which was statistically higher than that of 80.6%in control group (χ2 =5.166,P=0.023).After treatment, hs-CRP, TNF-α, IL-8 levels in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group (all P<0.05).After one and two weeks treatment, The Hcy level in observation group was statistically lower than that in control group ( all P<0.05 ).The adverse reactions in observation group was 8 cases ( 12.1%), 6 cases ( 9.7%) in control group, with no significant difference between two groups (χ2 =0.196, P =0.658 ). Conclusion Xueshuantong injection is effective in treatment of acute cerebral infarction, which could significantly increase curative efficacy, alleviate inflammatory reaction and reduce level of Hcy with less adverse reactions.
