  • Effect of mitral regurgitation on transcatheter aortic valve replacement

    With the expanding indications for transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) guidelines, combined valvular disease is often encountered in the clinic, and existing relevant studies have shown that preoperative moderate to severe mitral regurgitation is associated with higher mortality. In these patients, the optimal treatment strategy for TAVR with evidence-based heart failure, TAVR with transcatheter mitral intervention, or staging transcatheter therapy are unclear. Therefore, a comprehensive assessment of the anatomy and function of the aortic and mitral valves, as well as an in-depth assessment of the patient’s baseline risk profile, are the basis for an individualized approach to treatment. This article will review the results of the relevant research to better help clinicians diagnose and treat relevant patients.

  • Expression of long non-coding RNA FoxP4-AS1 in papillary thyroid carcinoma and its relationship with lymph node metastasis

    ObjectiveTo investigate relationship of long non-coding RNA FoxP4-AS1 expression with lymph node metastasis (LNM) of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).MethodsReal time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression level of FoxP4-AS1 in 52 cases of PTC tissues and corresponding adjacent tissues, PTC cells (TPC-1, B-CPAP, K1), and normal thyroid follicular epithelial cells (Nthy-ori3-1). Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to identify the influencing factors of LNM in PTC. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of influencing factors of LNM in PTC.ResultsThe expression level of FoxP4-AS1 in the PTC tissues was significantly decreased as compared with the corresponding adjacent tissues (t=7.898, P<0.001), which in the different cells had statistical difference (F=29.866, P<0.001): expression levels in the TPC-1 and K1 cells were lower than Nthy-ori3-1 cells (P<0.05) and in the B-CPAP cells and Nthy-ori3-1 cells had no statistical difference (P>0.05) by multiple comparisons. Univariate analysis showed that the extraglandular invasion (χ2=4.205, P=0.040)and low expression of FoxP4-AS1 (χ2=7.144, P=0.008) were the influencing factors of LNM in PTC. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that extraglandular invasion [OR=9.455, 95%CI (1.120, 79.835), P=0.039] and low expression ofFoxP4-AS1[OR=5.437, 95%CI (1.488, 19.873), P=0.010] were risk factors for LNM of PTC. The area under the ROC curve ofFoxP4-AS1,extraglandular invasion alone, and combination of the two were 0.679, 0.656, and 0.785, respectively.ConclusionsFoxP4-AS1 is down-regulated in PTC. Low level of FoxP4-AS1 is a risk factor for LNM of PTC. Combined detection of expression level of FoxP4-AS1 and extraglandular invasion has a high predictive value for LNM of PTC.
