Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of atorvastatin calcium in the treatment of cerebral infarction and its onhighsensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). Methods Selected 122 patients with cerebral infarction treated in our hospital from January 2014 to January 2016, patients were randomly divided into observation group (n=69) and control group (n=53),the control group was given conventional treatment, the observation group was given atorvastatin calcium on the basis of conventional treatment,observed the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and the daily life ability Barthel index (BI) score in the two groups after treatment,detected hs-CRP, TNF-α and carotid artery intima media thickness.Results After treatment, the NIHSS score of the observation group was (13.41 ±1.43), significantly lower than that of the control group (15.52±1.61) (P < 0.05), while the BI score was (43.82 ± 11.21), significantly higher than that of the control group (39.04±9.82 ) (P <0.05). The observation group after treatmenths-CRP and TNF-α were (6.71 ± 1.50) mg/L and (7.41 ± 2.08) ng/mL, significantly lower than the control group(10.02±1.78)mg/L and(10.10±2.32)ng/mL (P < 0.05). The observation group after treatment carotid artery intima media thickness was (1.10±0.27) mm, significantly lower than the control group (1.36±0.21)mm (P < 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 5.80%, the adverse reaction rate of the control group was 5.66%, the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion Atorvastatin calcium has a good effect in the treatment of cerebral infarction, can reduce serum hs-CRP and TNF-α level, promote nerve function and daily life ability recovery, improve the thickness of the carotid artery.
