Objective To explore the difference of cardiovascular risk factors and coronary artery lesion between Hui nationality and Han nationality patients with premature coronary heart disease. Methods A total of 316 patients with premature coronary heart disease were divided into two groups, including the Hui group (78 cases) and the Han group (238 cases). Eight risk factors for premature coronary heart disease (including age, gender, body mass index, familial heredity, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and smoking history) and coronary artery lesion characteristics were compared between the two groups. Results Compared with the Han group, the Hui group had a higher prevalence of smoking history and myocardial infarction, but a lower prevalence of angina (Plt;0.05). Type A disease was the major type in both Hui and Han groups. Compared with the Han group, the rate of type C were higher. Single-vessel lesion was the major lesion in both Hui and Han groups. The incidence of three-vessel lesion in the Han group was significantly lower than that in the Hui group. Gensini score in the Hui group was higher than that in the Han group, with a significant difference (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Hui patients with premature coronary artery disease are more than Han patients with premature coronary artery disease in proportions of smoking, diabetes, and the lesions of the left anterior descending artery, the right coronary artery disease, three-vessel disease rate, and C-type lesions. The coronary artery disease of the Hui group is more serious.
Objective To provide evidence for timely diagnosis and treatment of Kawasaki disease through assessing the relationship between the duration of fever and the incidence of coronary artery lesion in patients with Kawasaki disease. Methods To retrospectively analyze the clinical information of 352 inpatients with Kawasaki disease (including typical Kawasaki disease, incomplete Kawasaki disease, and non-responsive to intravenous immunoglobulin treatment Kawasaki disease ) from January 1997 to December 2007. The relationship between the duration of fever and the incidence of coronary artery lesion was presented by a linear trend plot, using Cochran-Armitage trend test. A value of P lt; 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Among 352 patients with Kawasaki disease, 88 had coronary artery lesions. Sixty-eight out of 294 patients with typical Kawasaki disease, 20 out of 58 patients with incomplete Kawasaki disease, and 18 out of 44 patients with non-responsive Kawasaki disease had coronary artery lesions. Linear trend analysis showed that the duration of fever in all 352 patients with Kawasaki disease and 294 cases with typical Kawasaki disease was positively correlated with the incidence of coronary artery lesion (Plt;0.05). However, in patients with incomplete Kawasaki disease and non-responsive Kawasaki disease, the relationship between the duration of fever and the incidence of coronary artery lesion was not significant (Pgt; 0.05). Conclusion The longer the duration of fever was in patients with Kawasaki disease, higher the risk of coronary artery lesion.
目的:通过对64排螺旋CT(MSCT)冠状动脉造影与选择性冠状动脉造影检测冠状动脉病变(冠状动脉狭窄≥50%)的对比分析,探讨64层螺旋CT评估冠状动脉病变诊断的准确性。方法:回顾性收集2007年12月~2008年10月于我院同期接受64层螺旋CT冠状动脉成像和常规经皮冠脉造影的112位冠心病患者的影像资料,以常规冠脉造影为参考标准,对2种检查方法的结果进行对比分析,评估64层螺旋CT冠脉造影对冠状动脉病变诊断的准确性。结果:按常规冠脉造影计算,112例患者共发现374处病变用于评价,MSCT造影检测冠脉病变总的准确性为906％,假阳性率和假阴性率分别为43％和51％;其中MSCT检测为假阴性均发生在左回旋支和右冠远段,假阳性均为冠状动脉伴有钙化。结论:64排螺CT冠状动脉造影检测冠状动脉病变诊断的准确性较高,但血管解剖和冠状动脉钙化可能会影响其对冠状动脉病变的评价和检测。
Abstract： Objective To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy for the the assessment of coronary artery stenosesusing 64-multislice spiral computed tomography （64-MSCT） scanner compared with selective coronary angiography（SCA）. Methods 64-MSCT and SCA were both performed in 93 patients with 74 males and 19 females at mean age of （58.2±8.5） years in West China Hospital between April 2004 and December 2010. The cardiacrhythm of all the patients was stably sinus. Patients with initial heart rates≥90 time/min were received treatments of β-blockers. All available coronary segments（internal diameter ≥ 2.0 mm）were included in the evaluation. Lesions with ≥ 50％ luminalnarrowing were considered as significant stenosis. According to the image detail of segments and existance of artfacts,the image quality was randed Ⅰ to Ⅳ ,with rank Ⅰ to Ⅲ meeting demands of image evaluation. Evaluations had been done concerning the 64-MSCT scanner for detecting the stenosis of the variant branches or segments of the coronary artery. Results 64-MSCTprovided a full image correspondence(100%,1 238/1 238)of all the segments clearly displayed in the SCA. All of the coronary segments involved （n=1 238） met the quality demands of being evaluated as rankⅠ to Ⅲ. Considering SCA as the golden standard， overall sensitivity for classifying stenosis using 64-MSCT scannerwas 88.8%（427/481）， specificity was 91.7%（694/757）， positive predictive value was 87.1%（427/490），and negative predictive value was 92.8%（ 694/748）.While the stenosis diagnostic accuracy of proximal left circumflexbranch and the first obtuse marginal branch of left coronay artery is lower than other branches： the sensitivity of the proximal left circumflex branch was 68.3%（41/60），specificity was 60.6%（20/33），positive predictive value was 75.9%（41/54），negative predictive value was 51.3%（20/39）；the sensitivity of the first obtuse marginalbranch was 58.8%（10/17），specificity was 93.5%（58/62），positive predictive value was 71.4%（10/14），negative predictive value was 89.2%（58/65）. Arterial wall calcification and false image of cardiac movements were the maininfluence factors for accuracy of the the assessment of coronary artery stenosis with 64-MSCT scanner. Conclusion 64-MSCT scanner provids a high diagnostic accuracy in assessing stenosis of the coronary artery. The anatomical location and luminal area of coronary artery were the main influence factors of diagnostic accuracy. Thus the diagnostic accuracy in proximal left circumflex branch and the first obtuse marginal branch of left coronary artery was lower than other coronarysegments.
Abstract： Objective?To summarize our experience of redo coronary artery bypass grafting（CABG） and explore appropriate redo CABG strategy for Chinese patients. Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 27 patients who underwent redo CABG in People’s Hospital of Peking University from January 2000 to January 2010. There were 15 male patients and 12 female patients with their age of 41-84 （63±8） years. The mean time between the first CABG and the redo CABG was 45 （4-168） months. Preoperatively all the patients had unstable angina pectoris. Twenty-one patients were in New York Heart Association （NYHA） functional classⅠ-Ⅱ， and 6 patients were in NYHA functional classⅢ-Ⅳ. Preoperatively， their left ventricular end-diastolic dimension （LVEDD） was 41-69 （51.0±0.7） mm， and their left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF） was 32%-78% （58%±12%）. At the time of redo CABG for the 27 patients， there were 6 new coronary artery lesions， 7 left internal mammary artery （LIMA） lesions， 3 radial artery lesions （including 1 proximal anastomosis lesion alone） and 49 saphenous vein graft （SVG） lesions （including 3 proximal lesions alone and 3 distal lesions alone）.?Results?The surgical approach of redo CABG included median sternotomy in 18 patients， left lateral thoracotomy in 8 patients， upper midline abdomen and subxiphoid incision in 1 patient. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting （OPCAB） surgery was performed in 25 patients， but intra-operatively 2 patients underwent conversion to CABG under cardiopulmonary bypass. A total of 65 distal anastomoses and 41 proximal anastomoses were performed during redo CABG. A total of 10 LIMA， 3 right internal mammary artery (RIMA)， 16 left radial artery， 2 right radial artery and 17 SVG were used in redo CABG . There were 1-4 （2.4±0.8） distal anastomoses for each patients. The operation time was 170-530 （304±86）min. Postoperative transfusion was 0-10 （4.3±3.5） U packed red blood cells and 0-1 600 (685±549) ml fresh frozen plasma for each patient. Postoperative mechanical ventilation time was 6-156 （24±32） h and postoperative hospital stay was 7-35 （14±6） d . There was no in-hospital death. All the patients were discharged without any angina symptoms. A total of 26 patients were followed up and 1 patient was lost with the mean follow-up time of 80 （13-133） months. During follow-up， 16 patients were alive without angina symptoms， 4 patients died， and 6 patients had recurrent angina symptoms or heart failure. Conclusions OPCAB is an effective surgical strategy of redo CABG， but cardiopulmonary bypass should also be prepared. Arterial graft should be use as long as possible in redo CABG and the surgical strategy should be individualized.
Abstract: Objective To investigate the clinical results of the coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with completed hypothyroidism. Methods Twentyone CAD patients with hypothyroidism (hypothyroidism group) operated by a single surgeon from September 2002 to June 2009 in our department were enrolled in this study. Among them, there were 6 males and 15 females. Their average age was 60.4 years old. Three patients underwent CABG with onpump beating heart; one underwent CABG with onpump arrested heart; and 17 patients underwent CABG with offpump beating heart. All patients on thyroxine replacement therapy underwent CABG after free triiodothyronine（FT3）,free thyroxin（FT4）, thyroidstimulating hormone（TSH）, total triiodothyronine（TT3） and total thyroxin（TT4） were obviously improved. At the same time, twenty CAD patients without hypothyroidism were chosen as the control group (control group). Among them, there were 6 males and 14 females with an average age of 62.1 years old. The data of thyroid gland function and clinical prognostic indicator were observed after the operation. Results For the hypothyroidism group, one patient with pericardial effusion, heart failure and low thyroxine before surgery died during the onpump operation. Among the 20 survivors who had undergone CABG with beating heart, 17 were offpump CABG patients. Followup was done for 230 months. Postoperative eject factor of the survivors were significantly higher than their preoperative eject factor (55%±21% vs. 48%±17%). Twenty patients in the control group all survived. There was no significant difference in cardiac index ［2.7±1.4 L/(min·m2) vs. 2.8±1.5 L/(min·m2), t=0.530, P=0.530］, hospital stay (12.2±4.7 d vs. 10.1±3.9 d , t=0.170, P=0.170), or mechanical ventilation time (17.6±9.1 h vs. 15.1±13.7 h, t=0.120, P=0.120) between the hypothyroidism group and the control group. Perioperative thyroxine examination showed that there was no profound impact on thyroxine by offpump CABG. Conclusions With full preparation made before operation, CABG with beating heart is comparatively safe for CAD patients with hypothyroidism. The key of the treatment is perioperative thyroxine replacement therapy. There is much risk to perform onpump CABG on patients with severe hypothyroidism.
Objective To summarize the early outcomes and clinic al experience of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (off-pump CABG) afte r off-pump coronary endarterectomy (CE) for patients with diffused coronary art ery disease. Methods From May 2003 to November 2006，83 patients with diffu sed coronary artery disease underwent CE without cardiopulmonary bypass and off-pump CABG. There were 61 males and 22 females with age ranged from 55 to 80 ye ars (65±7 years). There were 7 patients in Canadian Cardiac Society(CCS) an gina classⅡ,20 patients in class Ⅲ,and 56 patients in class Ⅳ. 36(43.4%) pat ients had history of myocardial infarction. Coronary angiogram revealed th at 5 patients had double vessels disease, and other 78 patients had triple ves s els disease with 16 left main stem disease. The left ventricular ejection fract ion(LVEF) ranged from 25% to 65% (51%±16%). One hundred and ten endarter e ctomies were performed in 83 patients totally which included 67 in left anterior descending artery(LAD)，9 in circumflex artery and 34 in right coronary artery . Twenty patients received onlay venous patch after CE in LAD and then grafte d by internal mammary artery (IMA) on the patch. There were 83 left IMA, 2 radia l arteries, others were great saphenous veins, the mean number of grafts was 3.9 ±1.2. Results There was no death in all patients. Intraoper ative graft flowmeter was used to check the flow in the grafts before chest cl osure. One hundred and one (92%) out of 110 grafts after CE showed a satisfactor y grafts flow(22±16ml/min) intraoperatively. Four patients had perioperative myocardial infarctions but none had hemodynamic changes. All patients discharged uneventfully. Seventyfive patients (90.4%) had 8 to 50 months followup with no angi na reoccurrence. Eight patients had coronary angiogram from 3 to 29 months af ter operation with all patent grafts to the CE coronaries. Conclusion Off-pump CABG with coronary endarterectomy is feasible and achieves surgical revascularization in patients with diffuse cor onary artery disease.
Objective To investigate the relationship between diabetic retinopathy (DR) and coronary atherosclerosis (CAS) in type 2 diabetes patients and other risk factors of DR. Methods A total of 118 patients of type 2 diabetes with DR (DR group), 120 patients of type 2 diabetes without DR matched in age and sex (non-DR group), and 86 normal controls (control group) were enrolled in this study. The body mass index (BMI), blood pressure (BP), fasting blood-glucose (FPG), glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1C), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterin (LDL-C), creatinine, estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary albumin excretion rate(UAER) in all the subjects were measured. Meanwhile, the incidence of CAS in the three groups was detected by 64slice multidetector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA). Assume concurrent DR as dependent variable, clinical indicators and laboratory parameters as independent variable, the risk factors were determined by Logistic regression analysis. In addition, CAS as dependent variable, DR as fixed factor, analysis of covariance was used to investigate the relationship between CAS and DR. Results The incidence of CAS in DR group was higher than that in nonDR group and control group, the differences were statistically significant (chi;2=26.9,35.5;P＜0.05). The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that systolic BP, BMI, CAS, myocardial infarction and UAER were key risk factors for DR ［odds ratio (OR)=1.02, 0.89, 4.50, 3.89, 1.34;P＜0.05］. There was a negative relationship between BMI and DR. The results of analysis of covariance showed that there was significant correlation between CAS and DR (OR=5.31, 95% confidence interval=2.62-10.60; P＜0.05). Conclusion CAS is independently associated with DR in type 2 diabetes patients. In addition, the other risk factors for DR include systolic BP, BMI, myocardial infarction and UAER.
