Objective To explore the clinical effect of traditional Chinese medicine on lipid metabolism dis-orders in hemodialysis patients.Methods 70 patients with hemodialysis received in the hospital from Novem-ber 2015 to April 2017 were enrolled in the study.They were randomly divided into control group and treat-ment group with 35 cases in each group.The control group was treated with simvastatin and and the treatment group was treated with self-made fat recipe combined with simvastatin.The levels of serum lipid ,serum in-flammatory cytokines ,renal function and liver function ,the total effective rate of treatment and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.Results There were no statistical significances in serum lipid indexes such as triglyceride (TG) ,total cholesterol (TC) ,high densi-ty lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ,low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) ,C reactive protein (CRP) , interleukin 6 (IL-6) ,tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α) and other serum inflammatory factors ,and renal func-tion indexes ,including urea nitrogen (BUN) ,creatinine (Scr) ,liver function indexes ,including alanine amin-otransferase (ALT) ,aspartate aminotransferase (AST) between two groups before treatment (P>0.05) ;af-ter treatment ,the TG ,TC ,LDL-C ,CRP ,IL-6 ,TNF-α ,BUN ,Scr ,ALT and AST levels of the patients in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group ;the HDL-C level of the patients in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group ;the total effective rate of the treat-ment group was significantly higher than that in the control group ;the incidence of adverse reactions was sig-nificantly lower than that of the control group ,and the differences were statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion The lipid-lowering effect of treatment of hemodialysis patients with traditional Chinese medicine lipid-lowering treatment is remarkable ,and worthy of promotion.
