Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the efficacy of Xiaoshuan Changrong Capsules combined with donepezil hydrochloride in the treatment of patients with vascular dementia and their effects on serum cytokines and oxidative stress. Methods:A total of 102 patients with vascular dementia who received treatment in Hangzhou Seventh People's Hospital, China between January 2019 and January 2021 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into control and observation groups, with 51 patients per group. The control group was treated by oral donepezil hydrochloride. The observation group was given oral Xiaoshuan Changrong Capsules combined with oral donepezil hydrochloride. All patients were treated for 12 weeks. Efficacy was compared between the two groups. The Clinical Dementia Rating score, the Mini-Mental State Examination score, and serum levels of interleukin 6, insulin-like growth factor-1, tumor necrosis factor-α, superoxide dismutase and malondialdehyde were compared between before and after treatment. Results:Total response rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [90.20% (46/51) vs. 70.59% (36/51), χ 2 = 6.22, P < 0.05]. At 12 weeks after treatment, the Clinical Dementia Rating score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(1.34 ± 0.27) points vs. (1.89 ± 0.31) points, t = 9.55, P < 0.05]. At 12 weeks after treatment, the Mini-Mental State Examination score in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(25.45 ± 1.98) points vs. (22.32 ± 2.10) points, t = 7.74, P < 0.05]. At 12 weeks after treatment, interleukin-6, insulin-like growth factor-1, and tumor necrosis factor-α levels in the observation group were (31.28 ± 7.35) ng/L, (0.34 ± 0.08) ng/L and (9.46 ± 2.27) ng/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(46.43 ± 6.28) ng/L, (0.48 ± 0.07) ng/L, (20.98 ± 3.56) ng/L, t = 11.19, 9.40, 19.48, all P < 0.05]. At 12 weeks after treatment, superoxide dismutase in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(98.91 ± 7.25) U/L vs. (86.59 ± 5.63) U/L, t = 9.58, P < 0.05] . At 12 weeks after treatment, malondialdehyde in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(3.25 ± 0.50) mmol/L vs. (4.81 ± 0.35) mmol/L, t = 18.25, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Xiaoshuan Changrong Capsules combined with donepezil hydrochloride is highly effective on vascular dementia. It can reduce cellular inflammatory response and improve oxidative stress response. This study is of great innovation and science.
