Objective To explore the correlation between hematocrit and slow coronary flow (SCF) in male patients. Methods We studied 205 patients with angiographically no more than one stenosis lt;40% in each major coronary artery who had admitted to the department of cardiology of the Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from August 2011 to August 2012. According to the level of hematocrit, 101 patients were classified into the trial group whose hematocrit was more 42.9%, while 104 patients into the control group whose hematocrit was no more than 42.9%. Clinical variables were analyzed and compared between the two groups. Results The age was younger in the trial group than the control group, whereas the levels of white blood cell count, mean platelet volume, triglyceride, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, left anterior descending artery (LAD) and right coronary artery (RCA) TIMI frame count and the proportion of SCF in the LAD were higher in the trial group than in the control group (Plt;0.05). The results of correlation analysis showed that, LAD TIMI frame count (r=0.238, P=0.001), proportion of SCF in the LAD (r=0.206, P=0.003) and RCA TIMI frame count (r=0.209, P=0.003) were positively correlated with hematocrit. The results of multivariate analysis (using logistic regression with adjusted confounding factors such as age) showed that, LAD TIMI frame count (OR=1.031, 95%CI 1.006 to 1.056, P=0.014), proportion of SCF in the LAD (OR=1.919, 95%CI 1.038 to 3.547, P=0.038) were independently correlated with hematocrit. Conclusion The proportion of SCF in the LAD is independently correlated to hematocrit, which suggested that increased hematocrit may contribute to the pathophysiological change of SCF in male patients.
Objective To explore the correlation between traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) blood stasis pattern of coronary heart disease (CHD) and coronary angiography result, so as to screen dangerous patterns and provide evidence for the objectification of TCM pattern differentiation. Methods Literature on correlation between blood stasis pattern and coronary angiography results from January 1992 to May 2012 were searched in the following databases: China Academic Journal Network Publishing Database (CAJD), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), China Doctor Dissertation Full-text Database (CDFD), Chinese Selected Master’s Theses Full-Text Databases (CMFD), PubMed and MEDLINE. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, literature screening, data extraction and methodological quality assessment of the included studies were conducted. Then meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1 software. Results A total of 28 studies involving 4 901 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, there is a significant significance between blood stasis pattern and the following coronary angiography result, namely, number of culprit vessels (OR=1.38, 95%CI 1.08 to 1.77, Plt;0.05), severity of stenosis (OR=1.79, 95%CI 1.04 to 3.08, Plt;0.05), and Gensini score (OR=7.74, 95%CI 3.99 to 11.49, Plt;0.05). Conclusion Compared with other TCM patterns, CHD with blood stasis pattern easily tends to present multi-vessels lesions, more than 75% stenosis and higher Gensini score, indicating the condition of CHD with blood stasis pattern is more severe than with other patterns. Due to the discrepancy of pattern differentiation and the limited quality of original studies, this conclusion is insufficient to be fully applied into clinical practice, and more large scale and high quality clinical trials are required.
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。
Objective To explore clinical application and significance of coronary angiography （CAG） prior to heart valve replacement for patients with rheumatic valvular heart disease （RVHD）. Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 313 RVHD patients who underwent heart valve replacement in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2002 to June 2012. All the patients received screening CAG before surgery. According to CAG results，313 patients were divided into two groups. In the coronary artery lesion （CAL） group，there were 29 patients including 17 male and 12 female patients with their age of 60.0±5.2 years. In the non-coronary artery lesion （non-CAL）group，there were 284 patients including 98 male and 186 female patients with their age of 57.0±5.4 years. Surgicaloutcomes were compared between the two groups. Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression were performed to analyze risk factors of CAL for RVHD patients. Results CAG showed 29 patients with CAL，and the overall prevalence of CAL was 9.27%. In CAL group，11 patients underwent concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting with 2.2 grafts for each patient on the average. Postoperatively 1 patient （3.45%） died of low cardiac output syndrome （LCOS）. In non-CAL group，5 patients （1.76%） postoperatively died mainly because of LCOS，ventricular fibrillation，sudden cardiac arrest or respiratory failure. Cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic cross-clamp time of CAL group were significantly longer than those of non-CAL group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistical difference in postoperative mortality，incidence of LCOS，acute renal failure，respiratory failure，reexploration for bleeding，intraoperative blood loss，mechanical ventilation time or hospital stay between the two groups（P＞0.05）. There was no significant correlation between the types of valvular lesions and CAL. Age≥ 55 years （OR=5.534，P=0.005），male gender （OR=2.335，P=0.038） and diabetes mellitus （OR=4.265，P=0.006） were independent risk factors of CAL for RVHD patients undergoing heart valve replacement. Conclusion For RVHD patients with independent risk factors of CAL （age≥55 years，male gender and diabetes mellitus），CAG must beseriously considered before heart valve replacement. RVHD patients with CAL can obtain similarly satisfactory surgicaloutcomes of heart valve replacement as RVHD patients without CAL by appropriate surgical strategy and strengthened perio-perative management.
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.
