Effects of Jianxin granule and sacubitril valsartan on cardiac function and left ventricular remodeling of rats with heart failure
Objective:To observe the effects of Jianxin granule and sacubitril valsartan on cardiac function and left ventricular remodeling of rats with heart failure.Methods:By the improved method for establishing model of heart failure of rat,the model rats with heart failure were randomly divided into model group,simple western medicine group and integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine group,and the sham operation group was set as control group.These groups were treated with normal saline,sacubitril valsartan and Jianxin granule combined with sacubitril valsartan respectively.After 8 weeks of continuous intervention,the levels of left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular end-diastolic dimension(LVIDd),left ventricular end-systolic dimension(LVIDs),left ventricular fractional shortening(LVFS)and Nterminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)of rats were compared among groups.Results:After intervention,compared with the model group,the levels of LVIDd,LVIDs,LVEF,LVFS and NT-proBNP of rats were all improved in simple western medicine group and integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine group significantly(P<0.05);compared with simple western medicine group,the levels of LVEF,LVFS and NT-proBNP were improved in integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine group more significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion:Jianxin granule combined with sacubitril valsartan can more significantly improve the cardiac function and left ventricular remodeling of rats with heart failure,and the curative effect is better.
