Abstract:
AIM: To investingate the variety of the function of vascular endothelium in the patients with hypertensive nephropathy and the effect of Huayu Qinli Granule on (Hirudo,Rhizoma Smilacis Glabrae,Herba Leonuri,etc.) it. METHODS: This was a prospective,comparative and single-blind clinical trial.Patients in accord with the diagnosis and TCM differentiation standard were randomly divided into treatment group,united treatment group,blank control group and positive control group.Before the beginning of the trial,all patients were treated by Felodipine to lower their blood pressure to desired value.When the trial began,blank control group were treated only by Felodipine, positive control group were treated by general hypertension pills+captopril,treatment group were treated by Felodipine+Huayu Qinli Granule,united treatment group were treated by Felodipine+Huayu Qinli Granule+captopril.The course of study was for 4 weeks.The levels of urinary microalbumine(ALB),urinary ?_1-microglobulin(?_1-mg),urinary?_2-microglobulin(?_2-mg),serum nitric oxide and plasma endothelin were measured before and after the trial. RESULTS: The results showed both Huayu Qinli Granule and ACEI improved the levels of serum nitric oxide but there was slightly advantage over ACEI;both Huayu Qinli Granule and ACEI improved the levels of plasma endothelin,the improvement of Huayu Qinli Granule was(equal) to ACEI;united treatment group had the remarkable effect on serum nitric oxide and plasma endothelin. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that Huayu Qinli Granule improves the function of vascular endothelium in the patients with hypertensive nephropathy to a certain extent with the sufficiency of the treatment of depressing blood pressure.The effect of Huayu Qinli Granule is similar to that of ACEI.They cooperate with each other but mechanism of them may be different.
