RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the effects of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) and conventional drugs on autonomic nervous system and C-reactive protein (CRP)in the patients with unstable angina pectoris combined by QRS complex fragment. Methods A total of 60 patients aged (46.2± 10.3) years with unstable angina combined by QRS complex fragment were randomly divided into drug therapy group and PCI group (n=30 for each group).The changes of heart rate variability (HRV) including SDNN,SDANN,rMSSD,PNN50,HF and LF,heart rate turbulence(HRT) such as TO and TS,and CRP were measured before and 1 month after treatment. Results The values of SDNN[(88.2±20.6)ms vs.(122.5 ± 15.5)ms; (86.9± 23.4)ms vs.( 106.7± 18.8)ms],SDANN [(76.2±9.3)ms vs.(105.3±5.2)ms; (74.3±10.4)ms vs.(89.8±7.6)ms],rMSSD[(18.6±7.9)ms vs.(49.3± 4.3)ms; (19.3± 7.4)ms vs.(29.4± 5.2)ms],PNN50 [(5.5± 2.8)％ vs.(9.1 ±1.8)％; (5.3±2.1)％ vs.(7.2±3.2)％],HF[(219.4±131.6) Hz vs.(292.5±125.5) Hz;(217.2±133.2) Hz vs.(213.2±120.2 ) Hz] and LF[(459.6±135.2) Hz vs.(345.1±175.1) Hz ;(445.8± 144.3) Hz vs.(396.1 ± 182.3) Hz] were improved after treatment as compared with pretreatment in PCI group (t=9.4,15.69,8.37,4.68,3.26,3.57,P＜0.01 or 0.05) and in drug therapy group (t=7.3,12.36,6.98,2.94,4.89,5.01,P＜0.01 or 0.05),respectively.The changes of above indexes were more remarkable in PCI group than in drug therapy group(t=8.90,13.75,7.52,3.27,4.21,4.01,P＜0.01 or 0.05).The values of turbulence onset(TO) [(0.45±0.44)％ vs.(0.16±0.20)％,t=15.63,P＜0.01; (0.49±0.38)％ vs.(0.32±0.26)％,t=16.78,P=0.001] and turbulence slope (TS) [(2.12±0.13)ms/RR vs.(2.98±0.25)ms/RR,t=14.36,P=0.001; (2.15±0.19)ms/RR vs.(2.51±0.11)ms/RR,t=19.52,P=0.001] and CRP [(5.74±2.46)mg/L vs.(2.61±1.22)mg/L,t=12.49,P=0.001; (5.81±2.35)mg/Lvs.(3.56±1.43)mg/L,t=9.76,P=0.01] were also improved after treatment as compared with before treatment in PCI and drug therapy groups,respectively,and the the changes in TO (t=15.95,P＜0.001),TS (t=18.13,P=0.001) and CRP(t=10.73,P=0.001) were more obvious in PCI group than in medicine group. Conclusions PCI may obviously reduce inflammatory response,provide more myocardial blood supply and improve autonomic nervous function in the patients with unstable angina pectoris combined by QRS complex fragment.
RESUMEN
Aim To study clinical efficacy of valsartan,in comparison with amlodipine, in hypertentive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy. Methods 65 hypertentive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy is divided into two groups, with 33 cases in valsartan group and 32 cases in amlodipine group Valsartan 80～160mg and amlodipine 5～ 10 mg were taken by the patients in the two groups for 6 months respectively. 24 h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring ( 24 h ABPM) and color echocardiography were performed in the two groups before and after treatment. Results The parameters of 24 h ABPM ( 24 h SBP? 24 h DBP?dSBP?dDBP?nSBP?nDBP) and color echocardiography (IVST?PWT?LVMI)after treatment in the two groups were significant decreased compared with those before treatment respectively (P0.05). Conclusion Valsartan can lower significantly the blood pressure level and make left ventricular hypertrophy remarkably dispelled in hypertensive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy and has the effect similar to that of amlodipine.
RESUMEN
Objective To study the therapeutic effect, side-effect and safety of uterine artery embolization of hysteromyoma with pinyangmycin and lipiodol emulsion. Methods Embolization carried out selectively through uterine artery with pinyangmycin and lipiodol emulsion of 158 hysteromyoma was followed up for 3-18 months with observation of the size of hysteromyoma, the change of corpus uteri and the degree of reactions. Results All cases were embolized successfully including 150 cases of bilateral and 8 cases of unilateral uterine arterial embolization. The appearance of uterine arteries showed obvious arterial enlargement with spiral hypervasculature, tumor staining and prolonged opacification. Six patients underwent hysteroectomy 1 week after the embolization. The specimens demonstrated flaky necrosis with small bloody specks under pathologic examination. The alleviation rate of symptoms were 90.5% with recovery of normal menstrual cycle as 89.4%. The compressive symptoms of hypogastric pain and abdominal distention disasppeared in 91.3%. The reduction in size of hysteromyoma and corpus utei were 80% and 48% on average respectively. Conclusion The primary results demonstrates that uterine artery embolization of hysteromyoma is safe and effective, with low complication rate and more advantage over surgical approach.
