摘要
目的:研究他汀类药物早期应用对慢性心衰患者心功能、细胞因子水平的影响。方法:采用随机、对照研究的方法将68例慢性充血性心衰患者(NYHA分级Ⅱ-Ⅲ级)随机分为他汀类治疗组(n=36)和对照组(n=32)。他汀类药物治疗组应用普伐他汀20mg/d共12周,两研究组治疗前后分别采集空腹静脉血测定血脂水平与细胞因子(IL-6,TNF-α)浓度及超声心动图检查。结果:(1)他汀类药物治疗组治疗12周后,患者LDL-TC水平明显降低(P<0.05),血TNF-α,IL-6水平也有明显降低(P<0.05),对照组治疗前后水平无改善(P>0.05)。(2)他汀类治疗组治疗前后心功能按NYHA分级较对照组有明显改善(P<0.01),超声心动图检查LVEF有显著提高(P<0.05)。结论:他汀类药物早期治疗能降低血脂与细胞因子(TNF-α,IL-6)水平,改善心功能,有益于慢性心衰的生物学治疗策略。
Objective: To study the effects of statin on patients with congestive heart failure in early stage and to investigate the changes of blood levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) ,interleukin-6 and serum cholesterol level after treatment. Methods: sixty-eight patients with CHF were assigned to statin group (20 mg/d of pravastatin for 12 weeks n=36) or control group (no lipid-lowering drugs were used n=32) in a randomized, doubled-blind ,controlled study. Before and after treatment, the perementers of TNF-α IL-6 and serum cholesterol were measured and analyzed. The heart function was evaluated, too. Results: After 12 weekes, patients receiving pravastatin exhibited a modest reduction in serum cholesterol level compared with control group (P 〈 0.05). At the same time, New York Heart Association functional class in therapy group was low significant. This corresponded to improved left ventricular ejection fraction in the pravastatin group (P 〈 0.05). Serum tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-6 were significantly lower in the therapy group but control group had not changed. Conclusion: statin improves cardiac function, neurohormonal imbalance, and reduces the level of serum cytokines associated with chronic heart failure in earle stage.
