Abstract:Objective To investigate the effects of flupentixol and melitracen (deanxit)on serum adiponectin (APN)and plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP)in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) related heart failure(HF)complicated with depression. Methods Sixty-two patients with CHD-related HF complicated with depression were randomly divided into two groups:control group (n=31)treated with routine treatment and psychological intervention,and treatment group (n=31)treated with flupentixol and melitracen in the basis of routine treatment and psychological intervention for 6 months. Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD)scores,6-minute walk test(6 mWT),the values of left ventricular end diastolic diameter(LVEDD)and left ventricular ejec-tion (LVEF),the levels of serum APN and plasma BNP were compared between two groups.Results Compared with the control group,HAMD scores was significantly improved in treatment group [(25.84± 5.88)vs (19.98± 6.29),P<0.05 ].6 mWT was signifi-cantly increased [(264.7± 31.4)m vs(331.4± 32.4)m,P<0.05 ].The value of LVEF was significantly enhanced in treatment group [(33.03± 6.34)% vs (36.87± 6.98)%,P<0.05 ].The level of serum APN was significantly increased in treatment group [(89.66± 21.37)ng/mL vs (102.78± 23.18)ng/mL,P<0.05].The level of plasma BNP was significantly decreased in treatment group [(467± 93)pg/mL vs (312± 83)pg/mL,P<0.05].There was no significant difference in the value of LVEDD between two groups.Conclusion Antidepressant treatment for 6 months can relieve the symptom of depression,improve the heart function,increase the level of ser-um APN and decrease the level of plasma BNP in patients with CHD-related HF complicated with depression.
