ABSTRACT
Objective To survey ST-segment resolution in STEMI patients undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and to find the specific clinical features of patients with inadequate ST-segment resolution.Methods A total of 198 patients were divided into two groups according to the ratio of ST-segment resolution:relatively adequate ST-segment resolution group (＞ 50％) and inadequate STsegment resolution group (＜ 50％).The clinical features,infarct-related artery and PCI-related evants were evaluated,and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE including target vessel revascularization,recurrent myocardial infarction,or death) were recorded during hospitalization and follow-up period.Multivariate logistic analysis was used to identify relevant factors influencing ST-segment resolution of STEMI patients after treatment with PCI.The Statistical analyses of data were carried out using SPSS 10.0 software.Results (1) There were 156 patients with relativey adequate ST-segment resolution and 42 patients with inadequate ST-segment resolution.Of them,there were higher percentage of patients aged over 75years in the inadequate ST-segment resolution group than those in the relatively adequate ST-segment resolution group (9 cases,21.4％ vs.14 cases,9.0％ ; P ＜0.05).(2) In inadequate ST-segment resolution group,thetotal ischemic time was significant longer [(5.2 ±2.2) h vs.(3.0 ± 1.6) h,P ＜0.01].The infarctrelated artery (IRA) was more common at left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) (27 cases,64.3％ vs.69 cases,44.2％; P ＜ 0.05) and there were fewer patients with TIM grade 3 of IRA in inadequate ST-segment resolution group after primary PCI than that in relative adequate ST-segment resolution group (32 cases,76.2％ vs.140 cases,89.7％ ; P ＜ 0.05).There was a lower rate of using GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a receptor antagonist and a higher rate of prescribing IABP in inadequate ST-segment resolution group.(3) There is a higher incidence of MACE during hospitalization and follow-up period in patients with inadequate ST-segment resolution.(4) Multivariate logistic analysis indicated that age over 75 years,LAD occlusion,the total ischemic time were related to ST-segment resolution.Conclusions The patients with age over 75 years,LAD occlusion,longer ischemia time,and unemployment GP Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a receptor antagonist before PCI were prone to get inadequate ST-segment resolution and poor prognosis.Age over 75 years,LAD occlusion,and longer ischemic time were independent risk factors of the inadequate ST-segment resolution in STEMI patients after emergency PCI.
ABSTRACT
The self—formulated modified“Blood—activating andQi—benefitting Decoction of Fructus Cirri Sarco-dactylis”with heavy dose of Radix Angelica Sinensiswas applied for the treatment of 50 cases of apoplexycomplicated with pseudo—Bulbar paralysis.The totaleffective rate of dysathria was 98% with a 58% abovemarked effect rate,while the total effective rate for-choking and coughing was 98%,with a 94% abovemarkedly effective rate.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effect of simvastatin on intimal proliferation in abdominal aorta of rabbits after stenting.Methods Thirty male New Zealand white rabbits were allocated into two groups including the control group(n=15)and the treatment group(n=15).All the rabbits were fed on 1.5% high cholesterol diet and underwent ballon injury of abdominal aorta from femoral approach and stents were implanted in the segments with stenosis rate greater than 50%.Rabbits in the treatment group were given simvastatin 5 mg/d after stenting.Neointima proliferation of the stented segments was examined on the 30th day after stenting by histological staining and the expression of P27kip1 and PCNA in each group was also analyzed.Results Histological staining showed that on the 30th day after stenting,the thickness of vessel wall(0.107?0.072 mm vs 0.133?0.047 mm,P=0.006)and the area of neointima(0.975?0.084 mm2 vs 1.350?0.043 mm2,P=0.001)were less in the simvastatin treatment group compared with the control and the rate of lumen loss was less than that of the control(20.460%?2.325% vs 31.020%?1.904%,P=0.002).The expression of P27kip1 in the neointima VSMC cell nuclear was higher(7.149?0.305 vs 2.997?0.310,t=9.551,P
