ANTIOXIDANT EFFECT OF MILDRONATE IN PATIENTS AFTER CORONARY REVASCULARISATION

The study included 149 patients, aged 41–75 years, with Functional Class II-III stable angina, who underwent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Before the intervention, Group I (n=79) received standard therapy and mildronate (750 mg/d for 3 days,...

Description
Summary:The study included 149 patients, aged 41–75 years, with Functional Class II-III stable angina, who underwent coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Before the intervention, Group I (n=79) received standard therapy and mildronate (750 mg/d for 3 days, then 750 mg/d twice per week). Group II (n=70) did not receive any metabolic medications. Lipid peroxidation (LP) and antioxidant potential parameters were measured at baseline, 6 and 24 hours after the intervention in CABG patients; 10–15 days before, 2–3 days before and 1 day after the intervention in PCI participants. Pre-intervention mildronate therapy was associated with decreased blood levels of LP products, due to the activation of antioxidant enzymes – superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GP).
