The present study explored the effects of
aspirin combined with cilostazolin in the treatment of diabetic patients with
thromboangiitis obliterans and the effects on the related inflammatory factors. A total of 90 diabetic patients with
thromboangiitis obliterans admitted to Weifang People's Hospital from August 2015 to June 2017 were selected and divided into the control group (n=45) and the combination group (n=45). Patients in the control group were given
aspirin, and those in the combination group were given
aspirin combined with
cilostazol. Before treatment and 6 weeks
after treatment, the clinical data including ankle-brachial index (ABI), 6-min walk test (6MWT) and test data including serum inflammatory factors
interleukin (IL)-8,
IL-6 and matrix
metalloprotease (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 of the two groups were collected for quantitative and statistical analysis. Compared with those in the control group, the ABI and 6MWT in the combination group could be effectively reduced, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). At the same time,
cilostazol combined with
aspirin could effectively reduce the levels of serum inflammatory factors MMP-2 and MMP-9 in patients, except for
nitric oxide (NO), and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with that before treatment, the control and the combination group can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of the patients, and
aspirin combined with
cilostazol can effectively improve the clinical curative effect of diabetic patients with
thromboangitis obliterans and delay the progression of the disease.
