Efficacy of combined medication of nifedipine and magnesium sulfate on gestational hypertension and the effect on PAPP-A, VEGF, NO, Hcy and vWF
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of combined medication of nifedipine and magnesium sulfate on the blood pressure, pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), nitric oxide (NO), homocysteine (Hcy) and von Willebrand factor (vWF) in gestational hype...

description | OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of combined medication of nifedipine and magnesium sulfate on the blood pressure, pregnancy-associated plasma protein A (PAPP-A), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), nitric oxide (NO), homocysteine (Hcy) and von Willebrand factor (vWF) in gestational hypertension patients. METHODS: A total of 220 gestational hypertension patients were enrolled as the subjects, and divided into two groups randomly, i.e. the observation group and the control group. In observation group, patients took combined medication of nifedipine and magnesium sulfate, while those in the control group only took magnesium sulfate for treatment. Clinical efficacy, and the changes in blood pressure, PAPP-A, VEGF, NO, Hcy and vWF before and after treatment were compared between two groups. RESULTS: In the observation group and the control group, total effectiveness rates were 92.7% and 70.9%, respectively (p < 0.05). After treatment, we found significant decreases in PAPP-A, VEGF, NO, Hcy and vWF in patients of two groups, with more significant decreases in the observation group (p < 0.05). Incidence rates of the adverse reactions in two groups were 5.5% and 6.4%, respectively, without any statistically significant differences (p > 0.05). In the observation group, patients had fewer complications (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Combined medication of magnesium sulfate and nifedipine can decrease the levels of PAPP-A, VEGF, NO, Hcy and vWF in serum as well as the blood pressure of patients with gestational hypertension, with a reduction in incidence rate of complications and improvement in efficacy. |
