Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of fluvastatin sodium on the risk factors of atherosclerosis in patients with previous coronary heart disease.Methods 58 cases meeting the inclusion criteria and diagnosed coronary heart disease history of chlamydial infection were selected and randomly divided into study group and control group, 29 cases in each group, the control group were given routine treatment, study group on the basis of conventional treatment of fluvastatin sodium(20 mg pertime, once daily) treatment.A total of 4 weeks treatment for a course, the blood lipid and vascular endothelial function, matrix metalloproteinases and inflammatory factor levels were determined before and after treatment, and adverse reactions were recorded between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group, the total cholesterol ( TC ) , triglyceride ( TG ) , low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) and lipid comprehensive index(LCI) in study group after treatment were lower, the high density lipid-cholesterol(HDL-C) was higher, the soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sI-CAM-1) and endothelin-1(ET-1) were lower, the NO was higher, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), MMP-9 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1) were lower, and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin 1 beta(IL-1β), high-sensitivity c-reactive protein( Hs-CRP ) and IL-6 were lower ( all P <0.05 ).All patients were followed up, only slight gastrointestinal adverse reaction, there was no significant difference in adverse reactions between the two groups.Conclusion The fluvastatin sodium can reduce the blood lipid, the level of matrix metalloproteinases, improve vascular endothelial function and inflammatory state, with high safety.
