Abstract:Objective To study the effect of Beraprost and Pitavastatin in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) -related pulmonary hypertension. Methods A total of 100 COPD-related pulmonary hypertension patients admitted to the First Hospital of Nanchang from December 2019 to December 2020 were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into an observation group and a control group according to the principle of random drawing, with 50 cases in each group. Patients in the observation group were treated with Beraprost combined with Pitavastatin, and patients in the control group were treated with Beraprost. The total effectiveness rate, lung function indexes, and inflammatory factors of the two groups of patients were compared. Results The total effectiveness rate of treatment in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), the forced expiratory volume in the first second/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) and percentage of predicted value of the FEV1 (FEV1%) of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The indexes of blood neutrophils,interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in patients with COPD-related pulmonary hypertension in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with Beraprost monotherapy, the combination of Beraprost and Pitavastatin has a better effect in the treatment of COPD-related pulmonary hypertension, which can improve the patients′ lung function indicators.
