Brief Summary

Intrastent restenosis is a common complication after intracranial and extracranial arterial stenting and an important cause of recurrent ischemic stroke. Studies have shown that Tongxinluo capsule can protect the injured inner cells, reduce inflammation, inhibit the proliferation and migration of smooth muscle cells, inhibit the proliferation of plaque and nourish blood vessels, and resist arteriosclerosis. This study was a multicenter prospective randomized controlled clinical trial. Participants with intracranial and extracranial atherosclerotic stenosis who successfully underwent arterial stenting were included in the study, and were divided into Tongxinluo test group and control group. Clinical and related auxiliary examination data were collected at each follow-up point. To explore the effectiveness and potential mechanism of Tongxinluo capsule in preventing and treating restenosis after intracranial and external arterial stenting, and to provide reference for expanding clinical use of traditional Chinese medicine.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Changes of vascular stenosis rate after intracranial and extracranial arterial stenting

    According to NASCET experimental measurement standards, stenosis rate = (normal vascular lumen diameter - residual diameter at stenosis)/normal vascular lumen diameter \*100%. Comparison of CTA or DSA to evaluate the change of vascular stenosis rate after intracranial and extracranial arterial stenting; The incidence of cerebral ischemic events and intracranial hemorrhage events (responsible vessels and non-responsible vessels) were assessed by MR. Blood routine, liver and kidney function, blood lipids and hsCRP were recorded. The incidence and mortality of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage were analyzed. Adverse events (e.g. abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, bleeding, etc.)
