Objective: To investigate efficacy of Jieyu Tongluo decoction in treating depression after ischemic stroke and its influence on neuroimmune inflammatory markers.Method: One hundred and twelve cases with depression after ischemic stroke were elected and randomly divided into observation group (56 cases) and control group (56 cases) by referring to random number table.Both groups received conventional intervention by referring to ‘Chinese stroke rehabilitation treatment guidelines’.Cases of control group were orally given with paroxetine hydrochloride
20 mg/day at beginning
10 mg increasing per week
and maximum dose ≤ 40 mg/day.On basis of control group
observation group was given with Jieyu Tongluo decoction
1 dose/day.Two groups were observed for 6 weeks.Scores of depression self rating scale(SDS)
HAMD factors
and efficacy were compared in both groups.Serum levels of interleukin(IL) -1β
IL-2
IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor(TNF) -α
plasma levels of corticosteroid release hormone(CRH)
corticosteroid (ACTH) and cortisol(Cor) and levels of CD3+
CD4+
CD8+ were detected in two groups.Result: After 3 weeks and 6 weeks treatment
SDS score of observation group was lower than that of control group(P<0.01).HAMD factors scores of observation group were lower than those of control group after treatment(P<0.01).Total effective of observation group was 88.89%
which was evidently higher than 71.7% of control group (P<0.05).After treatment
serum levels of IL-1β
IL-2
IL-6 and TNF-α and plasma levels of CRH
ACTH and Cor of control group were remarkably lower than those of control group (P<0.01).After treatment CD3+ and CD4+ of observation group were obviously higher
while CD8+ was lower
than control group(P<0.01).Conclusion: Efficacy of Jieyu Tongluo decoction in treating depression after ischemic stroke is significant and may improve depression after ischemic stroke through inhibiting inflammatory factor index level
