Objective To evaluate right ventricular (RV) global and regional systolic function using real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE) in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH).Methods Thirty patients with PH and 27 controls were studied.RT-3DE images were acquired on a Philipa iE33 system with an X3-1 probe,then analyzed with a new software(TomTec) to determine RV global and regional (inflow, body, outflow) end-diastolic volume (EDV), end-systolic volume (ESV), stroke volume (SV) and ejection fraction (EF).The difference of RT-3DE parameters between the two groups,as well as the correlation between RT-3DE and routine echoeardiography parameters was analyzed.Results In patients with PH ,RV global and regional EDV and ESV were significantly higher than those in normal controls (all P ＜0.05); RV global and regional EF were significantly lower than those in normal controls (all P ＜0.05).In the PH group, RV inflow EDV,SV and EF were higher than that of RV body and outflow part (P ＜ 0.05) ;RV global EF was lower than that of RV inflow part and higher than that of RV body and outflow part.In the PH group, RV global and inflow EF correlated with pulmonary artery systolic pressure negatively (r = - 0.611, P ＜0.001 and r = - 0.576, P = 0.001 ,respectively) ,and with the ratio of peak velocity of tricuspid regurgitation over outflow time-velocity integral negatively (r = -0.772, P = 0.002and r = -0.721, P ＜0.001, respectively)Conclusions RV global and regional volume was enlarged and systolic function was impaired in patients with pulmonary hypertension.RV global and regional systolic function was changed in liner relationship with RV after-load.

BACKGROUND:Surrounding structure of intracristal ventricular septal defects(IVSD) and membranous ventricular septal defects(MVSD)is complicated,and it is difficult to perform transcatheter closure treatment.Corresponding animal models should be established to define an optimal interventional therapy.OBJECTIVE:To prepare the animal models of IVSD and MVSD under echoeardiogram location.DESIGN:Animal modeling experiment.SETTING:Department of Cardiology,Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University.MATERIALS:Six healthy adult dogs,irrespective of gender,were purchased from Shanghai Experimental Animal Center.Aorta and great saphenous vein stapler-puncher(St.Jude corporation,USA)was used.The main improvement is to cut the plastic shell even,thin,or shorter in order to reduce the resistance when puncturing the"purse"in the fight ventficle and the interventficular septum.Sonos 5500 multifunction ultrasonoscope(Philips,USA)was used,and the frequency of the probe was between 2.5-3.5 MHz.METHODS:Experiments were performed at the Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University and Central Laboratory of Shanghai Institute of Cardiovascular Disease from April to July 2006(biosaflety level 2).After anaesthesia,6 adult dogs were fixed at decumbent position.The interventricular septum was punetured to make the preparation with the location of echocardiography(ECHO)by using the modified aorta and great saphenous vein proximal stapler-puncher.Animal intervention met the Animal Ethical Committee of Fudan University.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:One week after the surgery,transthoracic echocardiography examination was used to check the VSD site,the highest shunt flow rate,the pressure difference between both sides of the VSD,as well as pulmonary artenal pressure.RESULTS:The VSD models were successfully established in three survivals and included in the final result.Two models of IVSD and one model of MVSD were examined by ECHO one week after the surgery.The diameter of VSD ranges from 1.8 to 3.6 mm.The Peak Flow Rate of the VSD ranges between 1.8 and 4.0 m/s.The pressure difierence of both sides of the VSD ranges between 42 and 51 mm Hg.The pulmonary arterial systolic pressure ranges from 23 to 29 mm Hg.CoNCLUSION:Located by the ECHO,it is possible to establish animal models of the IVSD and MVSD with the modified aorta and great saphenous vein proximal stapler-puncher.

Objective: To study the mechanism of chitosan i n inhibiting the proliferation of rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells(SMCs). Methods: By means of c-myc probe labelled with random primers and Northern blot hybridization, we examined the effect of chitosan on vascu lar SMC c- myc mRNA expression, which was stimulated by newborn bull serum (NB S,20%). Results: The oncogene c-myc mRNA expression incerased in cultured vascular SMC 24 h after NBS exposure. These effects were inhibite d by chitosan (20 μg/ml). Conclusion: Chitosan might inhibit the expression of vascular SMC c-myc mRNA stimulated by NBS, through which the proliferation of vascular SMC are inhibited.

Objective To establish an isolation method for solid GTC in peripheral blood using EpCAM antibody-linked nanobeads and evaluate the sensitivity of the method and its application significance. Methods Five, ten, twenty, fifty and one hundred MCF7 (breast cancer), KYSE70 (esophageal cancer), BxPC-3 (pancreatic cancer) and 9811P (stomach cancer) cells were added into 7. 5 ml erythrocyte lysed peripheral blood obtained from healthy volunteers respectively. EpCAM antibodylinked nanobeads were used to enrich cancer cells. The recovery rates of the in vitro added cancer cells were evaluated by fluorescence microscopy. Then, the untreated thirty cases of esophageal cancer (six cases at stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ, twenty-four cases at stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ), thirty-five cases of breast cancer (fifteen cases at stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ , twenty cases at stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ), thirty cases of pancreatic cancer (five cases at stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ , twenty-five cases at stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ), thirty-three gastric cancer (thirteen cases for stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ ,twenty cases at stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ) were enrolled to enrich the peripheral blood CTC. Thirty healthy volunteers and thirty gastritis patients served as two groups of control. Meanwhile the enriched CTC was identified by IF and HE staining. FISH was used to analyze the copy number of chromosome 8 and chromosome 20 in two hundred esophageal cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic caner and gastric cancer CTC. Results After DAPI staining and mixing with 7.5 ml peripheral blood from healthy donors, the average cell recovery rates of KYSE70, MCF7, BxPC-3 and 9811P cells evaluated under fluorescence microscope were 87%, 87%, 86% and 88% (within group), and the recovery rates of 5 gradient dilution levels were 88%, 85%, 87%, 88% and 87% (intergroup). With a high sensitivity, this method was able to isolate one cancer cell in 107 white blood cells of peripheral blood. The positive rates of more than 2 CTC in the peripheral blood detected by this method were 50% (15/30) of esophageal cancer, 63% (22/35) of breast cancer, 70% (21/30) of pancreatic cancer and 61% (20/33) gastric cancer patients respectively,but no CTC was detected in the peripheral blood of healthy volunteers and gastritis patients (P = 0. 000).The aneusomy of chromosome 8 and chromosome 20 were found in 80% esophageal cancer, 75% breast cancer, 65% pancreatic cancer and 59% gastric cancer. Conclusions The CTC isolation technique with EpCAM antibody-linked nanobeads is sensitive and accurate. The aneusomy of chromosome 8 and 20 is frequent in CTC from esophageal cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer and gastric cancer.

Objective To evaluate right ventricular (RV) global and regional volume and systolic function in patients with secondum atrial septal defect (ASD) using real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE),and to explore the relationship between parameters derived from RT3DE and parameters measured by conventional echocardiography.Methods RT3DE images were acquired from 22 patients with secundum ASD and 22 normal controls for evaluation and analysis to obtain RV global and regional end-diastolic volume (EDV),end systolic volume (ESV),systolic volume (SV) and ejection fraction (EF) in three compartments (inflow,body and outflow).RV dyssynehrony parameters were calculated as the standard deviation (SD) and maximum difference (dif) of time to minimum systolic volume (Tmsv) and Tmsv corrected by heart rate (Tmsv％) in three RV compartments.Conventional echocardiographic parameters including pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP),pulmonary vascular resistance (PVRe) and maximum diameter of ASD (ASD-D) were calculated and recorded.Results RV global and regional EDV,ESV and SV were larger (all P ＜0.001) and EF was lower (all P ＜0.05) in the ASD group than in the controls.RV regional volume and systolic function were changed to various degrees in different compartment in the patients group.There were no significant differences in Tmsv,Tmsv％ and RV dyssynchrony parameters between the two groups.In patients with ASD,RV global and regional EDV,ESV and SV in the inflow compartment were positively correlated with ASD-D and PASP (r =0.463-0.704,all P ＜ 0.05) ; RV global EF was negatively correlated with PVRe (r =-0.477,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions In patients with ASD,RV global and regional volume was enlarged and systolic function was impaired with distinct characteristics; RV global volume and regional volume in the inflow compartment were positively correlated with RV pre-load while RV global EF was negatively correlated with RV afterload.

Objective To evaluate the impact of individualized occluder application on efficacy and complications of transcatheter closure treatment for multi-feneatrated atrial septal defects (mfASD).Methods Seventy six patients with mfASD who were hospitalized at Fudan University Zhongshan Hospital from July 2006 to July 2015 were retrospectively enrolled.Clinical and follow-up data were collected and analyzed.Results Among the 76 patients including 18 males and 58 females,transcatheter closure was successfully performed in 73 patients (96.1%).The morphological features of ASD included: 60 cases (78.9%) with two defects and 16 cases (21.1%) with cribriform defects, 3 cases (3.9%) combined with patent foramen ovale (PFO),13 cases (17.1%) with atrial septal aneurysm (ASA).Dual occluders were used for closure in 26 patients (35.6%),while single occluder was implanted in 47 patients (64.4%).In single-occluder group,measuring balloon was used to assist occlusion in 7 patients (14.9%).3 patients versus 11 patients required the small-waist-big-edge occluders in the dual-occluder group and the single-occluder group respectively (11.5% vs.23.4%, P=0.352).The complication rate in the dual-occluders group was higher than that in the single-occluder group (19.2% vs.4.3%, P=0.037),while the incidence of residual shunt showed no significant difference between these two groups (11.5% vs.10.6%, P=0.906).Conclusions The occluder for transcatheter closure of multiple atrial septal defects needs to be individually chosen according to the morphological characters.Transcatheter closure of mfASD using two devices is feasible,safe and effective for selected patients.
