ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of Qingrequzhuo capsule on blood pressure of patients with type 2 diabetes metabolism syndrome. Methods 72 cases with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome were randomly recruited into a control group and a treatment group. Based on the conventional treatment, the treatment group was treated with Qingrequzhuo capsule, 5 tablets/time, 3 times/d; While the control group was treated with ramipril tablets 2.5 mg, 1 times/d, respectively. After 3 months, the value of blood pressure and blood lipids were observed. Results After treatment, the blood pressure and blood lipid were significantly improved in both groups(P<0.05), but no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Besides improving blood lipids, Qingrequzhuo capsule can also reduce high blood pressure and improve a variety of risk factors to cardiovascular disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the influence of DaHuang on renal expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) in diabetes mellitus rats. Methods After the DM rat model was made, 24 DM rats were selected randomly and divided into a model group (12 DM rats) and a Rhubarb group group were given pure water in equal amount every day. 8 weeks later, kidney was cut to make pathological slice and method of SP immunohistochemistry was adopted for staining. Observed the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1. Result The renal expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in the rhubarb group and the model group were obviously increased compared with the normal group (P<0.05). The renal expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in the rhubarb group was obviously weaker than the normal group(P<0.05). Conclusion Rhubarb could obviously inhibit the renal expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in diabetes mellitus rats and protect kidney of diabetes mellitus rats.
