The Journal of Practical Medicine 2017;33(13):2189-2192
Objective To investigate the protective effects of statins on renal function in patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP). Methods Fifty-seven SAP patients combined with AKI were divided into statins group(n = 27)and control group(n = 30). The level changes of amylase(AMY),blood uria nitrogen(BUN), creatinine(Cr),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterin(LDL)and high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL) before and after statin treatment were observed in statins group and then all were compared with those in control group. Results There was no significant difference of AMY,BUN,Cr,TC,TG, LDL and HDL between 2 groups before treatment. After treatment,AMY,BUN,Cr,TC and LDL were significantly lower while HDL were significantly higher in two groups(P<0.05). However,AMY,BUN and Cr were far lower on 7th day and 14th day in statins group than those in control group(P<0.05). Simultaneously,TC and LDL were far lower while HDL were far higher 14thday in statins group when compared with those in control group(P < 0.05). Conclusions Statins have protective effects on renal function in patients with SAP ,and the mechanism is probably related to the inhibition of HMG-COA ,elimination of oxygen free radicals and anti-fibrosis.
