Abstract:
Objective:To explore the effects of Zhenfang Baiwanzi Decoction combined with alteplase injection on serum inflammatory factors and vascular endothelial active substances in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:Randomized controlled trial. A total of 87 patients with AIS admitted to Mengcheng County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between June 2019 and July 2022 were selected as the observation subjects by prospective cohort study, and they were divided into treatment group (44 cases) and control group (43 cases) according to the last number of medical records. The control group was given thrombolytic therapy with alteplase injection on the basis of routine therapy, and the treatment group was given Zhenfang Baiwanzi Decoction on the basis of the control group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. TCM symptoms were scored before and after treatment, and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was used to evaluate the degree of neurological deficit, and Activity of Daily Living Scale (ADL) was applied to evaluate the quality of life. The levels of serum IL-6, CRP, TNF-α, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), VEGF, NOS and endothelin-1 (ET-1) were detected by ELISA. The adverse reactions were recorded and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results:The total effective rate was 93.18% (41/44) in treatment group and 76.74% (33/43) in control group ( χ2=4.62, P=0.032). After treatment, the scores of hemiparalysis, skin insensitivity, deviated mouth and eye, inhibited speech and headache and dizziness in treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=3.38, 3.77, 2.69, 2.60, 2.36, P<0.01 or P<0.05). The NIHSS score was significantly lower than that of the control group ( t=7.53, P<0.01) while the ADL score was significantly higher than that of the control group ( t=2.99, P<0.01). After treatment, the levels of serum IL-6, CRP, TNF-α and MCP-1 in treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=6.07, 5.70, 5.30, 3.36, P<0.01), and the levels of VEGF [(364.54±33.04)ng/L vs. (346.86±29.63)ng/L, t=2.63] was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P<0.05), NOS [(20.77±3.12) μmol/L vs. (29.46±5.36) μmol/L, t=9.27] and ET-1 [(85.41±7.09) ng/L vs. (94.11±9.38) ng/L, t=4.89] were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Zhenfang Baiwanzi Decoction combined with alteplase injection can improve the clinical symptoms, reduce levels of inflammatory factors, protect the vascular endothelial function, and enhance the efficacy of patients with AIS.
