Abstract

Objective: To investigate the correlation between changes in serum RBP4, hs-CRP, and IL-27 levels and rosuvastatin in the treatment of coronary heart disease (CHD).

Methods: One hundred and twenty patients with CHD admitted in our hospital were selected as the research object, including 60 patients with acute coronary syndrome as the ACS group, and 60 patients with stable angina as the SA group. Another 60 patients without CHD who were examined in our hospital at the same time were included in the non-CHD group. The patients with CHD were further divided into the control group (CG) (n = 42, with routine treatment) and the study group (SG) (n = 78, with routine treatment and rosuvastatin) to measure serum RBP4, hs-CRP, and IL-27 levels and analyze the correlation between each index and rosuvastatin in the treatment of CHD.

Results: After retrospective analysis, no significant difference was found among the ACS group, the SA group, and the non-CHD group (P > 0.05). As for serum RBP4, hs-CRP, and IL-27 levels, ACS group > SA group > non-CHD group, with obvious differences among groups (P < 0.05). After Spearman correlation analysis, a positive correlation was observed between Gensini score and serum RBP4, hs-CRP, and IL-27 levels in patients with CHD (P < 0.05). After treatment, serum RBP4, hs-CRP, and IL-27 levels were gradually reduced. At 4 weeks after treatment, serum RBP4, hs-CRP, and IL-27 levels of the CG and the SG were decreased conspicuously, and compared with the control, each index of the SG was obviously lower (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: Serum RBP4, hs-CRP, and IL-27 play an important role in the occurrence and development of CHD, with a positive correlation to the Gensini score, which can indicate the severity of cardiovascular disease to a certain extent. Meanwhile, rosuvastatin can remarkably reduce serum RBP4, hs-CRP, and IL-27 levels, which is of significance for prognosis.
