Reconstruction and analysis of K-Clip surgery process based on finite element method / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#Objective     To investigate the effects of different types of tricuspid regurgitation, implantation positions, and device models on the treatment outcomes of K-Clip for tricuspid regurgitation using numerical simulations. Methods     Three-dimensional reconstruction of the heart model was performed based on CT images. Two different regurgitation orifices were obtained by modifying the standard parameterized tricuspid valve leaflets and chordae tendineae. The effects of different K-Clip models at different implantation positions (posterior leaflet midpoint, anterior-posterior commissure, anterior leaflet midpoint, posterior septal commissure) were simulated using commercial explicit dynamics software Ls-Dyna. Conclusion     For the two types of regurgitation in this study, clipping at the posterior leaflet midpoint resulted in a better reduction of the regurgitation orifice (up to 75% reduction in area). Higher clamping forces were required for implantation at the anterior leaflet midpoint and posterior septal commissure, which was unfavorable for the smooth closure of the clipping components. There was no statistical difference in the treatment outcomes between the 18T and 16T K-Clip components, and the 16T component required less clamping force. Therefore, the use of the 16T K-Clip component is recommended.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effectiveness and safety of She medicine （畲药） Diren Zishen Formula（地稔滋肾方） combined with acupuncture as adjunctive treatment for primary biliary cholangitis with liver and kidney yin deficiency syndrome. MethodsSeventy patients of primary biliary cholangitis with liver and kidney yin deficiency syndrome were randomly divided into a control group and a treatment group， with 35 patients in each group. The control group received oral ursodeoxycholic acid capsules （250 mg per dose， three times daily）. The treatment group received She medicine Diren Zishen Formula oral decoction （one dose daily， 200 ml per dose in the morning and evening， served warm） and acupuncture ［bilateral Sanyingjiao （SP6）， Taichong （LR3）， Ganshu （BL18）， Zusanli （ST36）， Fenglong （ST17）， once daily， 5 consecutive days per week］ in addition to the same treatment as the control group. The treatment duration was three months for both groups. Comparisons were made between the two groups before and after treatment for the following parameters， which were four traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptoms scores （skin itching， fatigue， jaundice， and flank pain）， TCM syndrome scores， liver function indicators including aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， gamma-glutamyl transferase （GGT） and total bilirubin （TBiL）， liver fibrosis markers including serum laminin （LN）， serum hyaluronic acid （HA）， serum type Ⅳ collagen （Ⅳ-C） and serum type Ⅲ procollagen （PC-Ⅲ）， and inflammatory factor indicators including serum interleukin-6 （IL-6） and tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-α）. The effectiveness of TCM syndrome between the two groups was compared and safety evaluations were also conducted after treatment. ResultsA total of 32 cases were finally analyzed in the treatment group， while the control group had 31 cases. The total effective rate of TCM syndrome in the treatment group （87.50%， 28/32） was higher than that in the control group （67.74%， 20/31） （P＜0.05）. After treatment， the TCM symptom scores， syndrome scores， liver function， and liver fibrosis markers in both groups signi-ficantly decreased， while in the treatment group， the inflammatory factor indicators decreased after treatment， and more decreases were found than those in the control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Both groups had good safety， and no adverse reactions were observed. ConclusionThe combination of She medicine Diren Zishen Formula and acupuncture as an adjunctive treatment for primary biliary cholangitis can significantly improve the clinical effectiveness， improve liver function， reduce inflammatory response， and alleviate liver fibrosis， with good safety.

Clinical efficacy analysis of different interventional approaches for patent ductus arteriosus in children (≤7 years) / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#Objective    To explore the safety and effectiveness of different interventional approaches for the treatment of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in children. Methods    The children (≤7 years) who underwent interventional treatment for PDA from 2019 to 2020 in our hospital were retrospectively included. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the procedures: a conventional arteriovenous approach group, a simple venous approach group, and a retrograde femoral artery approach group. The clinical efficacy of the patients was compared. Results     A total of 220 patients were included. There were 78 males and 142 females, with an average age of 3.21±1.73 years, weight of 14.99±5.35 kg, and height of 96.19±15.77 cm. The average diameter of the PDA was 3.35±1.34 mm. A total of 85 patients received a conventional arteriovenous approach, 104 patients received a simple venous approach, and 31 patients received a retrograde femoral artery approach. The diameter of PDA in the retrograde femoral artery group was smaller than that in the other two groups (3.44±1.43 mm vs. 1.99±0.55 mm; 3.69±1.17 mm vs. 1.99±0.55 mm, P<0.001); the contrast medium usage [40 (30, 50) mL vs. 20 (20, 30) mL; 35 (25, 50) mL vs. 20 (20, 30) mL, P≤0.001] and operation time [32 (26, 44) min vs. 25 (23, 30) min; 29 (25, 38) min vs. 25 (23, 30) min, P<0.05] in the simple venous approach group were significantly less or shorter than those in the other two groups; the length of hospital stay of the conventional arteriovenous group was longer than that in the other two groups [3 (3, 5) d vs. 4 (3, 6) d; 4 (3, 5) d vs. 4 (3, 6) d, P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in postoperative complications. Conclusion    It is safe and effective to close PDA through simple venous approach. The retrograde femoral artery approach has the advantage of simplifying the surgical procedure for PDA with small diameters.

Feasibility of three-dimensional CT axial sequence assisted volumetric measurement for atrial septal defect evaluation / 中华放射学杂志

Objective:To explore the feasibility of three-dimensional CT axial sequence assisted volumetric measurement (CTAS) in evaluating atrial septal defect (ASD).Methods:The patients with single secundum ASD who successfully underwent interventional therapy in Fuwai Hospital from January 2016 to December 2019 were retrospectively collected. The patients underwent coronary CT angiography (CTA) before and on the second day after closures, and DSA examinations during operation. A total of 52 cases met the inclusion conditions, among them, there were 37 patients with large defects which had deficient inferior rims ≤3 mm, and 15 patients with severe pulmonary arterial hypertension that occluded with fenestrated ASD occluder. The CT data of patients before and after operation were reconstructed by CTAS. Then the anatomical structure of ASD before the operation was evaluated, including the long diameter and short diameter of ASD, and the CT three-dimensional volume diameter of ASD was calculated by using the equivalent circle conversion formula of ellipse. The waist diameter of occluder and rims of the ASD were measured after occlusion on postoperative CT three-dimensional volume reconstruction images. Meanwhile, the deployed occluder waist dimension was measured in DSA examination during the operation by simulating the balloon measurement of ASD. Lastly, paired t-test and consistency analysis were carried out among the values of parameters. Results:Before operation, the equivalent circle diameter of ASD was (32.3±5.4) mm measured by CTAS. After ASD occlusion, the size of the waist dimension measured by DSA and CTAS were (32.5±4.9) mm and (32.6±4.9) mm. There were no significant differences between them ( P>0.05). There were also no significant differences for each rims of the ASD pre and post operation on CTAS except for the inferior rims and the total length of atrial septum in superior-inferior direction ( P>0.05). Conclusion:As an alternative to balloon sizing, CTAS can be used as a reference standard to conduct ASD interventional treatment.

Imaging diagnosis of congenital left main coronary artery atresia / 中国介入影像与治疗学

Objective: To explore the feasibility of imaging diagnosis of congenital left main coronary artery atresia (LMCAA). Methods: Data of 6 patients with LMCAA, including 3 males and 3 females, 5 infants and 1 adult were retrospectively analyzed. All 6 patients underwent echocardiography, multidetector CT (MDCT) and cardiovascular angiography. Results: Echocardiography showed small diameter of left coronary artery without clear ostium, could not exclude the abnormal origin of left coronary artery from pulmonary artery in 1 case, small caliber of proximal segment of the left main coronary artery, intramural left coronary artery or ostial stenosis of the left main coronary artery in another case, mitral valve prolapse with severe regurgitation without coronary arterial abnormality in the rest 4 cases. MDCT correctly diagnosed LMCAA in 5 cases, considered ostium atresia or severe stenosis of the left coronary artery in 1 case. All the 6 patients were definitely diagnosed as LMCAA using cardiovascular angiography in all 6 patients. Conclusion: LMCAA is extremely rare. Echocardiography could reveal this disease, while MDCT may be an useful method. Angiocardiography remains the gold standard for preoperative diagnosis of LMCAA.

The effect of fresubin diabetes on inflammatory factors and prognosis in patients with diabetes and mechanical ventilation / 中国中西医结合急救杂志

Objective To observe the effect of enteral nutrition emulsion (fresubin diabetes) on inflammatory factors and prognosis in patients with diabetes and mechanical ventilation (MV). Methods Sixty-six patients with diabetes and MV admitted to Lishui Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from June 2014 to December 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into an observation group and a control group according to random number table, 33 cases in each group. Active treatment of the primary disease, maintenance of water and electrolyte balance, active control of infection, protamine biosynthesis of human insulin injection to control blood glucose and other treatment were given to both groups. After 24 hours of MV, enteral nutrition suspension (nutrison fibre) was evenly dripped into the control group through a nasogastric tube, and fresubin diabetes was evenly dripped with the same method as above into the observation group. After treatment for 2 weeks, the average values of daily blood glucose, of blood glucose fluctuation and daily total insulin dosage of two groups were calculated; the differences in procalcitonin (PCT), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and serum albumin (ALB), prealbumin (PA) and transferrin (TF) were compared before and after treatment in the two groups; the duration of MV, stay time in ICU, and 2-week MV withdrawal rate were observed in the two groups. Results During nutritional therapy, there was no significant difference in the average daily blood glucose level between observation group and control group (mmol/L: 8.62±2.65 vs. 9.70±3.43, P > 0.05), however, in the observation group, the average daily blood glucose fluctuation value (mmol/L: 3.13±1.09 vs. 5.68±1.40), and the daily total insulin dosage (U/d: 31.93±4.93 vs. 43.50±5.31) were significantly lower than those of the control group (both P < 0.05). After treatment, PCT and hs-CRP in both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment, and the degrees of decrease in observation group were more significant than those in the control group [PCT (μg/L):2.81±1.03 vs. 5.95±1.57, hs-CRP (mg/L): 4.41±2.01 vs. 11.46±4.05, all P < 0.05]. After treatment, the levels of ALB, PA and TF were significantly higher than those before treatment [ALB (g/L): the control group was 37.98±3.49 vs. 30.50±3.44, the observation group was 37.88±3.47 vs. 30.48±3.34; PA (mg/L): the control group was 188.60±12.66 vs. 130.22±11.33, the observation group was 184.42±12.95 and 133.50±11.91; TF (mg/L): the control group was 2.71±1.01 vs. 2.07±0.86, the observation group was 2.69±1.02 vs. 2.08±0.90, all P < 0.05]; however, there were no statistical significant differences between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The MV time (days: 7.29±3.65 vs. 10.70±4.43) and ICU stay (days: 11.13±3.09 vs. 15.48±4.40) in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (both P < 0.05), and 2-week MV withdrawal rate was significantly higher than that of the control group [69.70% (23/33) vs. 39.39% (13/33), P < 0.05]. Conclusion Fresubin diabetes can meet the nutritional needs of diabetic patients with MV, in the aspects of controlling blood sugar, maintaining stable blood sugar levels and reducing inflammation, the therapeutic effect of fresubin diabetes is better than that of nutrison fibre, thus fresubin diabetes may better improve the prognosis of patients with diabetes.

Objective To assess the feasibility and efficacy of Amplatzer duct occluder Ⅱ (ADOⅡ) in occlusion of aortopulmonary collateral arteries. Methods Seven patients,6 males and 1 female, with aortopulmonary collateral circulation diagnosed previously by cardiac Computed Tomograpy or cardioangiography from Mar 2014 to Apr 2015 were enrolled. All of them were treated with ADO Ⅱ. Results The age of the patients ranged between 5 - 71 months old and weight 4. 2 - 22. 0 kg. Successful hybrid approach was achieved in 6 of 7 patients. One patient failed the occlusion because of severe hypoxemia and mild-moderate residual shunt after catheter intervention. Total 15 aortopulmonary collateral vessels were embolized by 7 ADO-Ⅱ, 22 non-detachable coils ( Cook corp. ) and 2 detachable micro-coils ( Boston Scientific corp. ). Complete embolization was achieved in 2 patients,4 patients had mild residual shunt and 1 patient had mild-moderate residual shunt after the embolisation. No interventional complications recorded. Conclusions ADO Ⅱ has high controllability and suitable for application through small delivery catheter for minimally-invasive procedures to the vessels. It is a preferable alternative in treating pediatric patients with large and tortuous aortopulmonary collateral arteries.

Balloon dilation of pulmonary valve stenosis with 10 F domestic balloon catheter in children≥10 kg / 中国介入心脏病学杂志

Objective To assess the safety and efficacy of balloon dilation of pulmonary valve stenosis with 10 F domestic balloon catheter in children ≥ 10 kg. Methods From May 2009 to June 2014, eighty-three consecutive children with weight ≥ 10 kg and age of (4.5±2.8)(ranged from 1-12) years underwent percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvoloplasty(PBPV) with 10 F domestic balloon catheter. Indication for treatment, procedural details, catheterization data, complication rate, peak-to-peak systolic gradient across the valve and pulmonary insufficiency on echocardiography were respectively analyzed. Forty-four patients were followed up 6-44 months after procedure. Results All procedures were completed successfully. The peak-to-peak systolic gradient across the pulmonary valve decreased from (67.7±26.2) mmHg to (15.4±11.6) mmHg (P < 0.01) immediately after PBPV. Two patients developed reactive infundibular spasm after dilation. They were relieved at 6 months post PBPV. No patient had severe pulmonary insufficiency, tricuspid regurgitation or reintervetion. Conclusions PBPV with 10 F domestic balloon catheter in children with weight≥10 kg is a safe and effective method.

Imaging of superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect by multi-slice CT / 中华放射学杂志

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of MSCT in the diagnosis of superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect.Methods The MSCT features of superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect in twenty cases were evaluated retrospectively.The following data were recorded:the size and location of sinus venosus atrial septal defect,the anatomy of pulmonary vein,including number of anomalously draining pulmonary veins and their site of drainage,and associated anomalies.Results In all patients,the superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect locates in the extraseptal wall,which normally separates the right upper pulmonary vein from superior vena cava(SVC).And anomalous connection of right upper pulmonary venous and SVC was identified in all the patients.The mean value of the defect diameter was ( 17.1±5.8) mm.Left superior vena cava was identified in 3 patients.In an elderly patient,left anterior descending branch of coronary artery presented significant stenosis.And in another elderly patient with large atrial septal defect,severe pulmonary hypertension was identified by cardiac catheterization.MSCT findings of superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect in 6 cases were finally confirmed by surgical operation.Conclusions Contrastenhanced MSCT was a useful technique for the diagnosis of superior sinus venosus atrial septal defect,which accurately displayed the anatomical characteristics of the associated malformations for preoperative evaluation.

Intra- and interobserver reproducibility in the assessment of coronary artery disease: evaluation with invasive coronary angiography and CT coronary angiography / 中华放射学杂志

Objective To investigate the intra- and interobserver repeatability of coronary artery disease (CAD) diagnosis based on invasive coronary angiography (ICA) and CT coronary angiography (CTCA).Methods Two readers with comparable experience ( over 10 years) independently evaluated ICA results of 42 consecutive patients with a blind method. After 30 days,one of them reviewed the same patients again.Another two comparable-experience (over 10 years) readers evaluated the results of CTCA (prospectively ECG-triggering) from the same 42 patients in the same way.The inter-reader and intra-reader repeatability of ICA and CTCA were analyzed by performing Kappa test and calculating the percentage of the segments with agreement on stenotic degree.Using ICA as reference,the accuracy of CTCA in diagnosing CAD was studied by comparing the area under ROC. Results The Kappa between readers for ICA and CTCA were 0.91 and 0.81.Intra-reader Kappa were 0.92 and 0.83 respectively (x2 =509.4 and 432.5,all P ＜0.01 ).The percentage of the segments with agreement between readers on the degree of stenosis were 80.8％ (494/611) in ICA and 75.2％ (469/624) in CTCA ( x2 =2.75,P =0.10),and within the same reader,86.9％ (531/611)in ICA and 81.9％ (511/624) in CTCA(x2 =3.76,P =0.053).With≥ 50％narrowing as a CAD diagnosis criterion,the agreement rates for two readers were 96.6％ (590/611 ) in ICA and 94.4％ (589/624) in CTCA( x2 =3.36,P =0.07),and for the same reader,97.4％ (595/611) in ICA,95.4％ (595/624) in CTCA ( x2 =3.62,P =0.06).Using ICA as reference,two readers of CTCA results achieved a sensitivity and specificity of 84.9％ (530/624)and 98.1％ (612/624).The area under ROC was 0.94 (95％ CI 0.91-0.97).Conclusions Both ICA and CTCA demonstrate good repeatability in diagnosing CAD.The repeatability of ICA is superior to that of CTCA.A certain discrepancy exists in two readings from the same reader or two readers.

Diagnosing left ventricular noncompaction by cardiac MRI and its differential diagnosis on left ventricular hypertrabeculation / 中华放射学杂志

Objective To define the diagnostic criteria of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging in distinguishing isolated left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) from lesser degrees of hypertrabeculation. Methods Twenty-five patients with LVNC, 39 with dilated cardiomyopathy ( DCM), 16 with aortic stenosis(AS), 15 with aortic regurgitation(AR) , 19 with hypertension (HT) and 22 normal subjects were enrolled in this study. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was performed to evaluate the left chamber diameter, functional parameters and noncompaction or hypertrabeculation of the left ventricle in diastole with one-way ANOVA. The left ventricle was divided into 17 segments for localizing all involved segments in this present study. Results The LVNC patients had the commonest myocardial segments involved (10±2)in all subjects. Each patient with LVNC was unexceptionally associated with apical noncompaction (17th segment) , which was seldom found in the other subjects. The lateral walls including 16th, 12th and 11th segments were the most vulnerable segments in all subjects, but nobody was found to involve the basal and mid septum including 2nd, 3rd, 8th and 9th segments. The end-diastolic NC/C (noncompaction/compaction) ratio was, on average, the greatest in patients with LVNC (3.3±0.6), compared with all other subjects(AS:1.0 ±0.3, AR:1.0 ±0.3,HT:0.8 ±0.1,healthy volunteers:0.9 ±0. 2) (F = 169. 62,P <0.05). Receiver operating characteristics analysis identified the end-diastolic NC/C ratio of>2.5 as a valuable parameter to distinguish LVNC from DCM.with values for sensitivity of 96.O%(24/25)and specificity of 94.9%(37/39),respectively.The mean number of NC/C ratio>2.5 segments in the LVNC patients was 4.0 ±2.0.while 8 of 39 patients with DCM had only one segment of NC/C ratio >2.5.Conclusions MRI is all exceUent imaging modality to diagnose LVNC and distinguish LIVNC from hypertrabeeulation.The criteria of LVNC is the NC/C ratio>2.5 in two or more than two segments of free ventricular walls associated with the left ventrieular apex involved.
