Title: The effect of edaravone on serum IL-6.TNF- α and neurological function in acute cerebral hemorrhage
Abstract: Objective To study the effect of edaravone on serum IL-6、TNF-α and neurologic functional in acute cerebral hemorrhage,discuss the protective mechanism of Edaravone on cerebral hemorrhage.Methods 80 casesof cerebral hemorrhage in 72h were randomly divided into treatment group(40 cases)and control group(40 cases),and the control group was given routine treatment,and the treatment group was administered with edaravone,30mg/d,for 14 days on the based treatment of the control group.The serum IL-6 and TNF-αwere detcted by ELISA before therapy and after treatment for 14 days.Neurological function deficit scores were utilized for assessment before given treatment.On the 21 th day after treatment,the patients were assessed again,and the efficacy was recorded.Results After 14 days treatment.the mean scale of NIHSS,the serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in treatment group were more obviously decreased than that in control group(all P<0.05).Conclusion Edaravone could obviously alleviate inflammatory reaction on acute cerebral hemorrhage,which could effectively remove the generous free radicals and reduce the brain edema after intracerebral hemorrhage.So it could protect the tissue of brain.
