Intervention Mechanism and Safety of Compound Qima Capsule on Carotid Atherosclerosis Plaques
Objective: To explore the intervention mechanism and safety of compound Qima capsule in the treatment of carotid atherosclerosis plaques by observing its clinical efficacy. Method: Eighty patients with carotid atherosclerosis plaques were randomly divided into control group and treatment group (40 cases in each group). Patients in control group were treated with atorvastatin calcium tablets for 6 months. Patients in treatment group were additionally treated with compound Qima capsule for 6 months. The changes in the indicators were compared and the efficacy was assessed in both groups. Before and after treatment
thickness of carotid intima of the carotidartery (IMT) and atherosclerotic plaque area were detected by color Doppler ultrasound; levels of triglycerides (TG)
total cholesterol (TC)
high density lipoprotein-C (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein-C (LDL-C) were detected; level of nitric oxide(NO)
endothelin-1(ET-1) and 6-ketone prostaglandin F1 α (6-Reto-PGF1α) were detected. Levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6)
tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)
and matrix metalloproteinases-9 (MMP-9) were also detected.In addition
adverse drug reactions were compared between two groups. Result: After treatment
the total effective rate in treatment group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05). By comparison with control group
the blood lipid levels and inflammatory factors in treatment group were significantly reduced (P<0.05)
vascular endothelial function was significantly improved (P<0.05)
bilateral carotid plaque area and carotid intima-media thickness were significantly reduced after treatment (P<0.05). There were no adverse drug reactions in both groups during the treatment. Conclusion: Compound Qima capsule can significantly decrease the bilateral carotid plaque area and carotid intima-media thickness
and improve the symptoms of carotid atherosclerosis with high safety for patients with carotid atherosclerosis plaques
and the mechanism may be related to regulating lipid metabolism
improving the endothelial function and anti-inflammatory response.
