Abstract:Objective To investigate the efficacy of edaravone combined with rosuvastatin in the treatment of cardiogenic cerebral infarction and its effects on the serum levels of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 12 (CXCL12), ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCH-L1), and human cartilage glycoprotein 39 (HC-gp39).Methods Ninety patients with cardiogenic cerebral infarction admitted to our hospital from March 2020 to April 2022 were included and randomly divided into the control group (45 cases) and the observation group (45 cases). The control group was treated with rosuvastatin, and the observation group was treated with edaravone combined with rosuvastatin. The therapeutic efficacy, serum levels of CXCL12, UCH-L1, and HC-gp39, hemorheological indicators, blood lipid levels and NIHSS scores were compared between the two groups.Results The overall effective rate of the observation group (91.11%) was higher than that of the control group (71.11%) (P < 0.05). The differences of serum levels of CXCL12, UCH-L1, and HC-gp39 before and after the treatment in the observation group were greater than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences of whole blood viscosity at low and high shear rates and the level of fibrinogen before and after the treatment in the observation group were greater than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences of the levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) before and after the treatment in the observation group were greater than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Besides, the differences of NIHSS scores before and after the treatment in the observation group were greater than those in the control group (P < 0.05).Conclusions Edaravone combined with rosuvastatin can effectively enhance the therapeutic efficacy for patients with cardiogenic myocardial infarction, and improve the hemorheological indicators, blood lipid levels, neurological function and inflammation.
