To explore the effects of butylphthalide on the levels of serum CRP, PAPK7, NT-3 and neurological function in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). 120 patients with ACI who were treated at Peking University First Hospital from September 2014 to June 2016 were selected as the research objects. The patients were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 60 cases in each group. Conventional methods were adopted in the control group, and the observation group used butylphthalide for treatment. Two months later, the clinical efficacy, serum C-reactive protein (CRP), Parkinson's disease protein 7 (PAPK7), neurotrophic factor-3 (NT-3) levels, and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score before and after treatment were put into comparison and analysis. Before treatment, the NIHSS score showed no significant difference between the two groups (p>0.05); An observably higher NIHSS score of the observation group compared with the control group was seen after treatment (p=0.000). Butylphthalide has a significant therapeutic effect on patients with ACI. It can effectively restore the patients' neurological function, and remarkably improve the serum CRP, PAPK7 and NT-3 levels, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
