Objective To Discuss the impacts of different dosage of atorvastatirs on serum hsCRP,IL-10 and MCP-1 levels on post-intervention patients with coronary stenting. Methods 93 post-intervention patients with coronary stenting were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups.Each group took different dosage of oral atorvastatins after the operation for more than one week.The dosage for each group was 10 mg,20 mg and 40 mg,respectively.Each patient was phlebotomized for three times,which are 24 hours before the operation,24 hours after the operation and one week after the operation.Serum MCP-1,IL-10 and hs-CRP levels were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)and immunoturbidimetry(ITM). Results Serum hs-CRP and MCP-1 levels of post-intervention patients were significantly higher than those of pre-intervention.This illustrated that the serum hsCRP and MCP-1 levels were closely related to PCI.Serum hs-CRP and MCP-1 levels decreased in those patients one week after operation which proves they are negatively correlated with the dosage of atorvastatins.There was no statistic evidence to prove the correlation between different dosage of atorvastatins and the level of serum IL-10.The ratio of MCP-1/IL-10 at 24h post-intervention patient was significantly higher than pre-intervention,which proves the ratio was negatively correlated with the dosage of atorvastatins. Conclusion Atorvastatins decreases serum MCP-1 and hs-CRP levels after PCI.Serum MCP-1 and hs-CRP levels were negatively correlated with the dosage of atorvastatins.

Objective:To explore the relationship between pulmonary function and coronary artery disease (CAD) with the severity of coronary artery lesions in relevant patients.
Methods:A total of 200 patients received coronary angiography (CAG) in our hospital were studied. The patients were divided into 2 groups: Non-CAD group, n=88 and CAD group, n=112. The degree of coronary stenosis was assessed by GENSINI score;the pulmonary function, echocardiography and fasting blood level of brain natriuretic peptide(BNP) were examined in all patients.
Results:Forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) in CAD group (2.33±0.54) L/1s was lower than Non-CAD group (2.63±0.39) L/1s, P=0.04. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that decreased FEV1 was the independent risk factor for CAD (OR=2.9, 95%CI 1.89-4.23, P<0.01). Spearman correlation analysis showed that FEV1 was negatively related to blood level of BNP (r=-0.54, P<0.01), positively related to the ratio of E/A (r=0.27, P=0.03). GENSINI score was positively related to smoking (r=0.31, P=0.01), diabetes (r=0.19, P=0.03) and negatively related to FEV1 (r=-0.40, P<0.01). With adjusted variables, partial correlation analysis presented that FEV1 was negatively related to GENSINI score (r=-0.21, P=0.01).
Conclusion:Decreased FEV1 is not only related to CAD occurrence, but also related to the degree of coronary stenosis in relevant patients.
