Effects of Ginkgo Bilobate Extract Injection on the hemorheology, blood lipid and C-reactive protein in serum of patients with cerebral infarction

Objective To observe effects of ginkgo bilobate extract injection on the hemorheology,blood lipid and c-reactive protein in serum of patients with cerebral infarction. Methods 62 cases patients with cerebral infarction were randomly divided into two groups by means of random number table. Two groups were both given routine treatment. The control group was treated with 20ml compound salvia injection, which was added to 250 ml normal saline, once a day, continuous therapy for 14 days, and the treatment group was treated with 20ml ginkgo bilobate extract injection, which was added to 250 ml normal saline, once a day, continuous therapy for 14 days. The clinical symptoms were observed, hemorheology related index, level of blood lipid and c-reactive protein were detected before and after the treatment. Results Compared with the control group,hemorheology related index decreased significantly in the treatment group, especially whole blood viscosity ( 1.57±0.28) mpa ·s (P＜0.01). Blood reduced viscosity (13.95 ± 2.07) mpa ·s, erythrocyte aggregation index (1.37±0.12) , hematocrit (42.36±8.16) were also decreased significantly (P＜0.05) .Triglyceride (TG)(1.23±0.12) mmol/L、 cholesterol (TC) (4.29±1.17) mmtmol/L、 low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDIL-C)(2.31± 0.39) mmol/L and c-reactive protein ( 10.48 ±- 3.82) mg/L in serum in the treatment group were lower than those of the control group (P＜0.01 orP＜0.05) , high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) ( 1.78±0.76) mmol/L in serum was higher than that of the control group (P＜0.01) .The total effective rate of the treatment group and the control group was 87.1％ and 67.7％ respectively, there was a significant difference (x2=3.553, P＜0.05). Conclusion The ginkgo bilobate extract injection can protect cerebral infarction from injury,which may be related with its action on regulating the blood viscosity and level of blood lipid.
