Abstract:
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of atorvastatin combined with sodium ferulic acid on renal interstitial fibrosis of diabetic nephropathy(DN).Methods According to the diagnostic and staging criteria of DN,56 patients of DN(Mogensen stage Ⅲ~Ⅳ)who hadn’t received lipid-lowering treatment in the last 2 months and glycemic control were within the standard were randomly divided into control group (n =28 )and experimental group(n=28).Control group were received basic treatment including diabetes diet,decreasing blood glucose level and adjusting blood pressure.Experimental group were added atorvastatin combined with sodium besides the basic treatment above-mentioned.The course is both 4 weeks in two groups.Changes of fasting plasma glucose(FPG),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum creatinine(SCr)and 24-hour urine albumin excretion rate (24hUAER),transforming growth factorβ1 (TGF-β1 )before and after the treatment in two groups were observed. Results The differences of FPG,BUN, SCr,24h UAER and TGF-β1 in two groups before and after treatment were statistically significant(P<0.01).Conclusion Atorvastatin combined with sodium ferulate can function cooperatively in the treatment of diabetic nephropathy and can delay renal interstitial fibrosis.
