Objective To analyze the feasibility and superiority of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting(OPCAB) in patients with left main coronary lesions.Methods A retrospective study was carried out to review our experience on 392 cases with left main coronary lesions,who underwent CABG in our hospital.Among the cases,279 patients(71.2%) underwent OPCAB and 113 cases received CCABG.The early postoperative mortality and complications of the two groups were compared.Results The number of bypass grafts was(4.17?0.86) in Group OPCAB and(4.24?0.94) in Group CCABG,showing no significant difference between them(t=-0.710,P=0.478).No significant difference was detected in peri-and post-operative morbidity between the two groups [atrial fibrillation: 31(11.1%) vs 8(7.1%),?2=1.459,P=0.227;perioperative myocardial infarction: 7(2.5%) vs 3(2.7%),?2=0.000,P=1.000;renal inefficiency: 9(3.2%) vs 4(3.5%),?2=0.000,P=1.000;pulmonary complications: 15(5.4%) vs 6(5.3%),?2=0.000,P=1.000].The early postoperative mortality of Group OPCAB was significantly lower than that in Group CCABG[2(0.7%) vs 5(4.4%),?2=4.368,P=0.037].The time of intubation[20(8-48) h vs 51(14-130) h,Z=-2.823,P= 0.005],ICU-stay [51(38-141) h vs 92(42-352) h,Z=-2.618,P=0.009],volume of transfusion [500(200-1200) ml vs 800(400-2100) ml,Z=-2.411,P= 0.016],re-open [5(1.8%) vs 10(8.8%),?2=9.052,P=0.003] and complication of CNS [3(1.1%) vs 9(8.0%),?2=10.647,P=0.001] of Group OPCAB were significantly less than that of Group CCABG.Conclusions It is feasible,safe and effective to perform OPCAB in patients with left main coronary lesions.

55 mm or course of AF over 2 years [54.5%(24/44) and 68.7%(46/67),?2=29.265,P=0.000 and ?2=13.814,P=0.000].Conclusion RFA Maze Ⅲ procedure during open-heart surgery is safe and effective for patients with AF.

Objective The preservation of all subvalvular apparatus for chronic mitral regurgitation has been reported in many studies. In this paper we analyzed the effects of complete chordal preservation for mitral stenosis versus mitral regurgitation on postoperative recovery.Methods Thirty-nine patients undergoing mitral valve replacement(MVR) with preservation of all subvalvular apparatus were divided into two groups, mitral stenosis (MS) group(n=23) and mitral incompetence (MI) group(n=16), according to the preoperative diagnosis. Echocardiography was performed preoperatively and at the time of discharge to determined left ventricular end diastole dimension (LVEDD),ejection fraction(EF) and the hemodynamics of the prosthesis.Results The LVEDD and EF did not change in MS group, declined in MI group postoperatively. No hemodynamic disorder of the prosthesis was detected in either group.Conclusions The valve replacement with preservation of all subvalvular apparatus could be used in both the mitral stenosis and mitral regurgitation.The early-term effects of two groups are similar,and the long-term effects are still to be observed.

Objective To evaluate the effects of smecta in prolonged hemorrhagic shock.Methods The modified Wigger's method was used to induce hemorrhagic shock in anesthetized rabbits.Twenty-nine rabbits were randomly divided into hemorrhagic shock group(n=14),smecta group(n=15),with smecta solution being administered via a gavage tube before shock.The plasma levels of endotoxin,tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF?),interleukin-6(IL-6) and nitric oxide(NO) were detected at pre-shock and post-shock,immediately after resuscitation and 2h after resuscitation.Blood culture was done at pre-shock,immediately after resuscitation,2h after resuscitation.The survival rates of 24h and 48h were observed.Results The plasma levels of endotoxin,TNF?,IL-6 and NO markedly increased after shock,and were maintained at high level in shock group (P

Objective To evaluate the effects of aminoguandine(AG) used as a selective inhibitor of the inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase(iNOS) and L NAME used as a non selective inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase(NOS) on severe hemorrhagic shock Methods Forty rabbits were bled to mean arterial pressure of 4 4 66 kPa via femoral artery Hypotention was maintained for 120 min, the shed blood was then returned, followed by an infusion with Ringer′s solutions Animals were randomly divided into three groups: hemorrhagic shock group (n=14), AG group (AG 20mg/kg was infused intravenously ,n=14), L NAME group (L NAME 30mg/kg was infused intravenously with ,n=12) Plasma levels of endotoxin, tumor necrosis factor(TNF?) and nitric oxide (NO) were determined before and after shock, immediately after resuscitation and 0 5h, 2h, 4h after resuscitation The 24h and 48h survival rates were recorded Lung, intestine, liver and kidney tissues were obtained 48 h after shock for microscopic examination Results The plasma endotoxin, TNF? and NO levels markedly increased and were kept at high levels after shock Lower plasma levels of endotoxin TNF? and NO, less tissue damages and high survival rates were observed in AG group as compared with those in L NAME group and shock group Conclusions The endotoxin,TNF? and NO play an important role in the development of irreversible shock AG is beneficial in the treatment of hemorrhagic shock, while L NAME does not improve the outcome of shock

0.05).There was a significant difference in the percentage of malignant calcified nodules between the patients of 45 years and older with those younger than 45 years(39.2% and 69.3%,respectively;P

Objective To analyze the reasons of the emergency patients forgoing the invasive rescue therapy and to put forward the corresponding strategy.Methods According to whether the patients accepted the invasive rescue therapy or not,2 673 patients in resuscitation room of Peking Union Medical College Hospital were divided into rescue group (group R) and do not rescue group (group DNR).There were 2 147 cases in group R and 526 case in group DNR.The rescue consent form or do not rescue consent form was required to sign by patient self,patient' s family member or relatives.The patient' s basic information,underlying disease,payment of medical expenses,personnel who signed the consent form,treatment and prognosis in both groups were investigated.Results There was no significant gender deference in both groups (x2 =1.86,P =0.173).The mean age of patients in group DNR was much higher than that in group R (69.5 ±-12.5 vs.58.6 ± 19.2 years,F =28.92,P =0.000).The proportion of patients outside Beijing in group DNR was higher than that of group R (51.90％ vs.44.01％,x2 =10.59,P =0.001).The ratios of chronic heart failure,chronic respiratory failure,chronic hepatic encephalopathy,chronic renal failure,malignant tumor in group DNR were significantly higher than that of group R (8.17％ vs.3.03％,8.17％ vs.2.61％,3.80％ vs.1.16％,5.32％ vs.1.44％,11.98％ vs.2.28％,all P=0.000).The proportion of patients without insurance in group DNR was higher than that of group R (52.09％ vs.41.08％,x2 =20.87,P =0.000).Except the ratio of patients self signing the consent form in group DNR was higher than that of group R (3.04％ vs.0.42％,x2 =64.40,P =0.000),there were no significant deference in other people who signed the consent form such as patient's offspring,spouse,parents,siblings and others.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed older age,non Beijing patients,chronic underlying diseases,without insurance and patients self signing the consent form were the major risk factors on refusing the invasive rescue therapy.The mortality rate of group DNR was much higher than that of group R (19.39％ vs.7.68％,x2=64.40,P=0.000).Conclusions Most of patients who refused to accept invasive rescue therapy were elderly people or in condition of end stage of chronic disease.The doctors and nurses in emergency department should continue to take care of these patients and make use of noninvasive methods to treat them or relieve their pain.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and risk factors of the cerebral artery atherosclerotic stenosis in patients aged 90 years and older. Methods A total of 92 patients,aged 90 years or older,admitted to our hospital from July 2009 to July 2014 were respec-tively enrolled in this study. All participants underwent CTA to assess the presence and severity of atherosclerotic stenosis with intracranial and extracranial cerebral artery. The association between atherosclerotic stenosis and related risk factors were analyzed. Results The preva-lence of cerebral artery atherosclerotic stenosis was high in the cohort. The frequency of stenosis with intracranial artery was higher than the frequency with extracranial artery (86. 2% vs 44. 8%). The most common positions of cerebral artery atherosclerotic stenosis were the middle cerebral artery (43. 1%),the posterior cerebral artery (43. 1%),and extracranial vertebral artery (32. 8%). The mean age,body mass in-dex,systolic and diastolic blood pressure,and fasting blood glucose of stenosis group are significantly different from the non-stenosis group in single factor analysis (P<0. 05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed body mass index was the independent risk factor of cere-bral artery atherosclerotic stenosis(β=1. 326,OR=3. 765,P<0. 05). Conclusion The prevalence of cerebral artery atherosclerotic steno-sis was high in the patients aged 90 years and older. Body mass index was the independent risk factor. The weight control should be pay atten-tion to prevent cerebral artery atherosclerotic stenosis and stroke.

Objective Respiratory variations in the pulse oximetry plethysmographic waveform amplitude (△POP) have been popularly studied as a dynamic indicators for fluid responsiveness assessment.The authors hypothesized that △POP can indicate fluid responsiveness in septic shock patient in emergency department.Methods A prospective study of 28 patients with septic shock was carried out in Emergency Room and Emergency Intensive Care Unit from 1 October,2010 to 30 September,2011.Hemodynamic data including cardiac index,stroke volume Variation (SVV) and △POP were recorded before and after volume expansion treatment.Fluid responsiveness was defined as an increase in cardiac index of 15％ or greater.Results Changes in △POP after volume expansion were greater in responders than that in non-responders (P ＜ 0.01).There was a significant relation between △POP and SVV before volume expansion (r =0.900,P ＜ 0.0001).Conclusions △POPcan indicate fluid responsiveness non-invasively in septic shock patient in emergency department.This marker has potential clinical application with high sensitivity and reliability.
