目的 阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停低通气综合征(OSAHS)可引起心血管疾病发生增高,是高血压病及冠心病等的独立危险因素。打鼾是OSAHs的主要临床症状。本研究的主要目的是了解成都地区自然人群打鼾发生情况及其与心血管疾病危险因素的关系。 方法 2007年在成都市成华区采用随机抽样方法对男、女性共711人进行了心血管疾病危险因素调查[年龄45~80岁,平均(3.28 ± 6.25)岁,男性患者占所有患者的57.8%],主要包括问卷调查、体格检查及血液学检查等,其中打鼾调查主要包括打鼾时间、次数及憋醒情况。将与打鼾相关的3个指标综合考虑后,计算出打鼾的严重程度,并分析了其与心血管疾病危险因素的关系。 结果 男性人群中打鼾率较女性高(62.0%、51.0%,P=0.003),且重度及极重度打鼾率也较女性高。随着打鼾的严重程度增加,体质量指数、血肌酐及尿酸等心血管疾病危险因素逐渐升高(趋势P均<0.05),而高密度脂蛋白胆固醇逐渐降低(P=0.001)。另外,随着打鼾的严重程度增加,高血压患病率及收缩压也逐渐升高,但无统计学意义(趋势P=0.063,0.08)。 结论 成都地区中老年城镇人群的打鼾率较高,且男性高于女性。另外,随着打鼾的严重程度增加,心血管疾病危险因素也逐渐升高。这提示我们在临床工作中,对于打鼾的患者需要加强心血管疾病危险因素的筛查及干预,以期减少它的发生发展。
ObjectiveTo explore the application of cardiac enhanced MRI in acute myocardial infarction with normal result of coronary angiography. MethodsOn October 18, 2013, a male patient underwent coronary angiography under the local anesthesia. Mild coronary stenosis both in left and right side were found in the surgery, but the results of dynamic cardiogram and myocardial markers were abnormal, which accorded with the clinical procedure of myocardial infarction. The patient underwent cardiac enhanced MRI at the 6th day and was finally diagnosed as acute myocardial infarction. We reviewed the database to find out the significance of cardiac enhanced MRI in diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction. ResultsAlthough coronary angiography was the gold standard for the diagnosis of coronary diseases, it had limitations in the diagnosis of coronary eccentric stenosis, branch vascular stenosis and coronary spasm. Cardiac enhanced MRI had the advantages of accurate measurement of the attenuation of myocardium and exhibition of functional changes of ischemic myocardium. ConclusionCardiac enhanced MRI is important for the diagnosis of myocardial infarction with normal result of coronary angiography.
ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical characteristics of thrombo embolism (TE) in Chinese hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients. MethodsThis study retrospectively analyzed HCM patients admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University. The endpoints were defined as a composite of TE events, including ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack, and peripheral arterial embolization. ResultsA total of 537 HCM patients were included with a median follow-up of 4.2 years. Forty-two patients reached the TE endpoint and the incidence was 1.9%. The annual incidence of TE was approximately 1.1% and 6.6% for HCM patients without/with atrial fibrillation, respectively. The recurrence rate of TE was high (approximately 26.2%). The mean age was 66.4±13.7 years for the first TE, and the incidence of TE was significantly increased at age ≥70 years. ConclusionThe incidence of TE is high in HCM patients, especially in those with atrial fibrillation, and the recurrence rate of TE is also high.
目的 研究高血压非瓣膜心房颤动患者甲状腺激素受体(TR)的活性差异,以探讨此类患者心房颤动发生发展的可能机制。 方法 2008年1月-2010年1月序贯收集103例高血压非瓣膜心房颤动患者的相关资料(48例阵发性心房颤动、55例持续性心房颤动),并收集50例单纯高血压患者。收集各组患者的相关人口学数据及检查结果,并采用放射性分析技术测定各组患者外周血淋巴细胞及淋巴细胞核TR的活性,主要包括平衡解离常数(Kd)及最大结合容量(MBC)。 结果 心房颤动患者淋巴细胞TR的Kd较单纯高血压患者小(越小表示与甲状腺激素的亲和力越高),且持续性心房颤动患者的Kd较阵发性心房颤动患者更小(0.77 ± 0.43、1.02 ± 0.41,P<0.001);心房颤动患者淋巴细胞TR的MBC较单纯高血压患者小(越小表示受体总量越少),且持续性心房颤动患者TR的MBC较阵发性心房颤动患者更小(36.10 ± 12.40、65.22 ± 30.90,P<0.001)。淋巴细胞核TR的Kd及MBC也存在类似情况。简单相关分析提示左房直径与淋巴细胞TR的Kd及MBC呈负相关,另外,调整相关指标后偏相关分析也提示左房直径与Kd及MBC呈负相关(Kd:r=?0.296,MBC:r=?0.448;P均<0.01);淋巴细胞核TR的Kd及MBC也存在类似情况。 结论 高血压非瓣膜心房颤动患者中,TR的总量减少,并且持续心房颤动组低于阵发心房颤动组;甲状腺激素与受体的亲和力在心房颤动患者中升高,且持续心房颤动组高于阵发心房颤动组。另外,还发现TR的Kd和MBC与左房直径均呈负相关。这些改变可能是高血压非瓣膜心房颤动患者心房颤动发生及维持的一种重要机制。
Objective To investigate the relationship between a body shape index (ABSI) and abnormal inflammation. Methods In May 2007, a cross-sectional study was conducted among 651 individuals by random sampling method in an urban community located in Chenghua district of Chengdu. We mainly assessed the relationship between ABSI and abnormal inflammation, which was defined as high sensitive C-reactive protein equal to 3 mg/L or higher. Results Logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC) and ABSI were independently associated with abnormal inflammation. For identifying abnormal inflammation, WC had the best discriminatory power with the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AROC) was 0.627 [95% CI (0.564, 0.689)], followed by BMI (AROC: 0.609) and ABSI (AROC: 0.608). In addition, combination with ABSI could improve the discriminatory power of BMI for abnormal inflammation, and AROC increased from 0.609 to 0.646. Combination with ABSI could also improve the discriminatory power of WC for abnormal inflammation, and AROC only increased from 0.627 to 0.631. Conclusions In the general Chinese population, ABSI is independently associated with abnormal inflammation, but the discriminatory power is poor, no better than BMI and WC. Furthermore, combination with ABSI can improve the discriminatory power of BMI and WC for abnormal inflammation, especially for BMI. Further studies about ethnic specificities of ABSI are needed.
