ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the correlation between E670G polymorphism of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene and coronary heart disease (CHD), and contrastively study the regional differences of E670G polymorphism of PCSK9 gene between patients with CHD among the Han population in Hainan and three provinces in the northeast of China (TPNC), providing scientific basis for prevention and treatment of patients with CHD in different regions.@*METHODS@#A total of 233 cases of patients with CHD were selected from the Han population in Hainan and TPNC as the experimental group (118 cases from Hainan, 115 cases from TPNC), and 239 cases with non-CHD were selected among the Han population also in the two regions as control group (125 cases from Hainan, 114 cases from TPNC). The triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels of plasma were tested and PCR-RFLP method was used to test the E670G polymorphism of PCSK9 gene. The statistical software package SPSS 21.0 was used for the statistical analysis and P 0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#There was a close correlation between the E670G polymorphism of PCSK9 gene and CHD with serum lipid level. Among Han population in Hainan and TPNC, the E670G polymorphism of PCSK9 gene of patients with CHD exhibited regional differences.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effects of exogenous recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on non-invasive hemodynamic in acute myocardial infarction patients with left ventricular failure.@*METHODS@#A number of 96 acute myocardial infarction patients accompanied with heart failure after PCI hospitalized in the People's Hospital of Sanya during February 2012 to October 2015 were selected. They were randomly divided into the therapy group (n = 50) and control group (n = 46). On the basis of routine treatment, patients in the therapy group were treated with intravenous rhBNP (1.5 μg/kg was intravenous injection with uniform speed of 3 min, followed by continuous infusion 0.0075 μg/kg·min for 72 h), while the control group received conventional treatment. BioZ-2011 non-invasive hemodynamic real-time monitoring system was used to monitor the hemodynamic parameters changes and the leaves of plasma pro-BNP, serum creatinine, serum potassium, serum sodium and urine volume of each group before and after treating for 30 min, 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h.@*RESULTS@#Patients in the therapy group showed no effect on heart rate, while after 30 min of intravenous injection of rhBNP, CO, CI, SV, and SI increased significantly and LVET and TFC reduced at the same time, which had certain effect on blood pressure (SBP/DBP). Compared with the control group, the therapy group showed a faster and more effective improvement on hemodynamics.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Acute myocardial infarction patients complicated with left heart failure after primary PCI can significantly improve hemodynamics by treating with rhBNP.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between E670G polymorphism of proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) gene and coronary heart disease (CHD), and contrastively study the regional differences of E670G polymorphism of PCSK9 gene between patients with CHD among the Han population in Hainan and three provinces in the northeast of China (TPNC), providing scientific basis for prevention and treatment of patients with CHD in different regions. Methods: A total of 233 cases of patients with CHD were selected from the Han population in Hainan and TPNC as the experimental group (118 cases from Hainan, 115 cases from TPNC), and 239 cases with non-CHD were selected among the Han population also in the two regions as control group (125 cases from Hainan, 114 cases from TPNC).

ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the relationship between plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) levels and the severity of coronary atherosclerosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Fasting plasma ox-LDL was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and plasma LDL was measured by biochemical autoanalyser in 31 patients with coronary artery spasm (CAS group, chest pain with positive acetylcholine provocation test but without significant coronary artery stenosis), 35 patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP group) and 24 healthy persons (control group).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Plasma LDL levels were similar between CAS and SAP groups but significantly higher than that in control group. Plasma ox-LDL levels significantly increased in proportion to coronary lesion severities [SAP (575 +/- 219 microg/L) > CAS (299 +/- 117 microg/L) > control (218 +/- 35 microg/L)]. In SAP group, plasma ox-LDL level was also significantly higher in multi-vessel disease group than that in single-vessel disease group (672 +/- 92 vs. 462 +/- 72 microg/L, P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Plasma ox-LDL but not LDL level is significantly correlated to the severity of coronary atherosclerosis and should therefore be the focused therapy target in patients with coronary artery disease.</p>
