Objective To study the effect of Zhimaikang Granules (Granules for lipid abnormality) on atherosclerosis of hyperlipidemia patients of phlegm turbidity retention type.Methods Totally 120 hyperlipidemia patients were randomized into treatment group and control group
60 cases in each. The treatment group was administered Zhimaikang Granules
each time 1 bag
twice a day. The control group was given Simvastatin Tablets
oral taking before sleeping. Both groups were treated for 45 days. Changes of superoxide dismutase (SOD)
malondialdehyde (MDA)
and nitric oxide (NO) were observed.Results After treatment
activity of NO and SOD were significantly higher than before in both groups (P<0.01 or P<0.05) and MDA concentration was significantly reduced (P<0.01). The increase of SOD activity and NO in the treatment group was more significant than that in the control group. The MDA level of both groups after treatment was not significant (P>0.05).Conclusion Zhimaikang Granules was proved to enhance the activity of antioxidase
promote anti-free radical reactions
inhibit lipid peroxidation and protect endothelial cells in atherosclerosis patients.
