Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effectiveness and safety of probucol combined with rosuvastatin in the treatment of vascu-lar dementia(VD). METHODS:In retrospective study,clinical information of 88 VD patients selected from neurology department of our hospital during May 2013-Feb. 2015 were divided into observation group and control group according to therapy plan,with 44 cas-es in each group. Both groups received conventional treatments such as controlling blood pressure and blood glucose,anticoagulation. Control group was additionally given Rosuvastatin calcium tablets orally 20 mg,at bedtime;observation group was additionally given Probucol tablet 0.5 g,bid,after meal,on the basis of control group. Both groups received treatment for consecutive 3 months. MMSE and ADL score were compared between 2 groups before and after treatment as well as the levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,HDL-C,CRP, TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,SOD and MDA. The occurrence of ADR was also observed. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statisti-cal significance in above indexes between 2 groups(P>0.05). Compared to before treatment,MMSE and ALD score,serum SOD lev-el of 2 groups were increased significantly,while serum levels of TC,TG,LDL-C,CRP,TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1βand MDA were de-creased significantly after treatment,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Above indexes of observation group were significantly bet-ter than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in HDL-C level between 2 groups before and after treatment (P>0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Probucol combined with rosuvastatin is better than rosuvastatin alone in reducing blood lipid,serum inflamma-tory factors and oxidant stress indexes levels,improving cognitive function and quality of life with good safety.
