Abstract: Objective To observe the effect of salvianolate on plasma high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) and tumor necrosis factor( TNF-α) in unstable angina(UA) patients.Methods Ninety-six UA patients were divided into two groups. Control group of 48 cases received conventional western medicine treatment,48 cases in the treatment group received salvianolate on the basis of control group treatment. Two weeks was as a period of treatment. The therapeutic effect was evaluated after two courses. The level of hs-CRP and TNF-α in two groups were detected before and 1 week,2 weeks after treatment.Results Before treatment,hs-CRP and TNF-α levels between two groups had no statistically significant (P>0.05). After treatment for 1 week and 2 weeks hs-CRP in observation group was (12.5±2.2) mg/L and (5.2±1.1) mg/L respectively, while that in the control group was (15.3±2.8) mg/L and (8.5±1.5) mg/L. There was the significant difference between two group (P<0.05); Moreover, TNF-α in observation group was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05). The efficacy in observation group was 93.8% (45/48), that in control group was 77.1% (37/48).The observation group was significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Salvianolate combined treatment might improve the clinical symptoms of UA patients by decreasing hs-CRP and TNF-α.
