Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of atovastatin and ginkgo biloba preparations on cerebral blood flow parameters and carotid atherosclerotic plaque indexes in patients with cerebral infarction.Methods Two hundred and thirty-five patients with cerebral infarction were selected in our hospital. The patients were divided into two groups according to the drug regimen. The control group (n=116) was treated with atovastatin while the experimental group (n=119) was additionally given ginkgo biloba preparations. The changes of carotid atherosclerotic plaques, cerebral hemodynamic parameters and hemorheological indexes were compared before and after treatment. Adverse reactions were also recorded.Results In the experimental group, the hemodynamic indexes RI(0.52±0.17) and PI(0.91±0.24) were significantly lower than in the control group, while Vd(37.29±2.82)cm/s, Vs(81.33±3.58)cm/s and Vm(9.78±1.22) cm/s were significantly higher (P<0.05). In the experimental group, the plaque area of posterior carotid atherosclerosis (0.52±0.12)cm2, CAIMT(1.26±0.17)mm was significantly smaller than that of the control group (P<0.05) after treatment. There was no significant difference in the rate of adverse reactions between the two groups.Conclusions For patients with cerebral infarction, atovastatin combined with ginkgo biloba preparations can effectively promote the recovery of hemorheological indexes and hemodynamic parameters and improve carotid atherosclerotic plaques. This approach is quite safe.
