Supported by various departments concerned of the district government, medical workers in Luwan District of Shanghai started in 1994 to set up in the whole district community based social help network for the medical care of SCGFD. In the last 4 years, the annual outpatient volume of SCGFD averaged 3.9 times and the annual visits received by SCGFD averaged 2.2 times. The conditions of 78.1% of SCGFD suffering from an illness turned for the better or became stable. The annual hospitalization utilization ratio averaged 5.4%. After hospitalization, 89.5% of SCGFD suffering from a serious illness fully recovered from their illness or were discharged after turning for the better. The average outpatient expenses per time, hospitalization expenses per day and per time of SCGFD respectively dropped 32.1%, 21.5% and 30.4%, as compared with the group of senior citizens enjoying free medical care. The authors hold that the social help network for the medical care of SCGFD in Luwan District is an easy to operate and effective community based medical security system for SCGFD. It has produced sound social repercussions after being put into practice. The controlled use of medical funds has ensured the normal operation of the network.

Objective To investigate the feasibility, safety and impact on performance indicators of coronary angio graphy, percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in day care ward of heart center. Methods 128 patients performing coronary angiography and receiving stent implantation or coronary artery bypass surgery when necessary from October 2014 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The success rate of procedure, intraoperative and postoperative adverse cardiac events (death, myocardial infarction and interventional complications: coronary artery spasm, dissection, perforation and occlusion, contrast agent allergy, upper extremity edema, patients with osteofascial compartment syndrome and radial artery occlusion), average hospitalization days and medical expenses were compared with patients at the same period in general ward. Results Seventy-six cases underwent coronary angiography, among whom 35 cases received stent implantation and 17 cases received coronary artery bypass grafting. The success rate was 100%. Adverse events were radial artery spasm in 5 cases, puncture site hematoma in 3 cases and contrast agent allergy in 1 case. Day care ward significantly shortened the average hospitalization days (P<0.05); there was a downward trend, although there was no statistical difference in hospitalization expenses (P>0.05). Conclusions Coronary angiography and revascularization at the day care ward model is safe and feasible in the heart center if diagnostic and therapeutic techniques are mature.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of antiplatelet therapy of ticagrelor on patients suffering from acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary in-tervention. Methods:In the study, 96 patients suffering from acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction onset within 12 h undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention from May to October in 2013 were randomly divided into ticagrelor group (n=48) and clopidogrel group (n=48) by using the method of random number table. Ticagrelor and clopidogrel antiplatelet treatment were used before and after operation. Their baseline data, coronary artery disease characteristics, platelet count, adenosine diphosphate(ADP)-induced platelet inhibition rate by thrombelastograph after 5 days of treatment, the major adverse cardiovascular events of the follow up for 6 months and bleeding complications were observed and compared in the two groups. Re-sults:The differences between the two groups of patients with their baseline data, the features of coronary ar-tery lesions, platelet count before and after 5 days of treatment had no statistical significance (P>0. 05). ADP induced platelet inhibition rate [(80. 2 ± 10. 7)%] after 5 days of treatment in ticagrelor group was sig-nificantly higher than that in clopidogrel group [(75. 3 ± 12. 1)%, P<0. 05]. The two groups of patients were followed up for 6 months, 8 cases of major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in clopidogrel group, 2 ca-ses of major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in ticagrelor group, and there was significant difference between the two groups (P<0. 05). The two groups (7 cases of 48 patients in ticagrelor group vs. 3 cases of 48 patients in clopidogrel group ) had no statistically significant difference in bleeding complications ( P>0. 05). Conclusion: Antiplatelet therapy of ticagrelor on patients suffering from acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing emergency PCI has good efficacy and safety.

Objective To explore the value of susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) in the quantitative analysis of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) of the rabbit kidneys . Methods Thirty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned to IRI group (n=24, operation with clamping) and Sham group (n=6, operation without clamping). Left renal ischemia-reperfusion was performed by occlusion (calmping) of the left renal arterial for 60 minutes, followed by reperfusion. All the rabbits underwent MRI including T2WI and SWI before and 0.5 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h after the establishments of models . Three rabbits in IRI group were randomly sacrificed 0.5 h, 12 h, and 24 h after the establishment of model. The rest of the rabbits in IRI group and 6 rabbits in sham group were sacrificed for pathological examination 48 h after the establishment of model All specimen were cut into slices and stained with hematoxylin-eosin (HE). Region of interest ( ROI) was manually created by outlining the inner medulla, inner stripe of outer medulla, outer stripe of outer medulla, and cortex, then relative signal-to-noise ratio of the kidney (rSNR) to muscle in SWI sequence was recorded. and compared with histopathologic features. One-way ANOVA was performed to compare difference of rSNR to muscle in respective location at 5 time-points between Sham group and IRI group, and the differences between groups were tested using repetitive measure analysis of variance, repetitive measure analysis of variance was performed to compare difference of rSNR to muscle in respective location at respective time-points between Sham group and IRI group. Results rSNR value in the inner medulla 0.5 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h after the establishments of models were 0.28 ± 0.04, 0.98 ± 0.14, 0.69 ± 0.07, 0.57±0.06, 0.43±0.03, respectively (F=69.82,P<0.01), the inner stripe of outer medulla at the five time-points 0.08 ± 0.03, 0.57 ± 0.05, 0.32 ± 0.07, 0.16 ± 0.02, 0.04 ± 0.01, respectively(F=16.59,P<0.01), the outer stripe of outer medulla were 0.31 ± 0.04, 0.86 ± 0.09, 0.65 ± 0.07, 0.55 ± 0.06 0.43 ± 0.04(F=67.52,P<0.01), respectively,the cortex 0.05±0.01, 0.80±0.04, 0.68±0.07, 0.47±0.07, 0.36±0.08, respectively(F=118.96,P<0.01). The difference of the rSNR was statistically significant in the inner medulla, inner stripe of outer medulla, outer stripe of outer medulla, and cortex at the five different time-points. The differences between two groups were significant (F=206.29, 14.25, 42.8, 39.12, P all<0.05). The pathological findings in Sham group included normalglomerular structure l, clear cavity of tubular, no interstitial hyperemia and edema. The pathological findings in IRI group demonstated, at 0.5 h after IRI, Bowman's capsule cavity expansion, glomerular shrinkage, swelling of renal tubular epithelial cells, vacuoles degeneration, the tube cavity expansion, interstitial edema and congestion ecta became slender, andat 12 h after IR, Bowman's capsule expansion became more obvious, foam degeneration of renal tubular epithelial cells, apoptosis, partial loss of the brush border of the proximal convoluted tubule, formation of protein cast, and a small amount of inflammatory cells appeared in the renal interstitium, swelling of endothelial cells of the vasa recta, congestion of small vessels, and at 24 and 48 h after IRI, more serious injury of renal tubular in the outer stripe of outer medulla , massive necrosis of renal tubular epithelial cells, apoptosis, parts of the renal tubular had the contour lines, and renal tubular outline, increment in inflammatory cells, red cell and protein cast. Conclusion rSNR of SWI in the inner medulla, inner stripe of outer medulla, outer stripe of outer medulla, and cortex of the kidney varies with the degree of IRI over time, and is consistent with corresponding pathological feature, suggesting SWI is useful imaging tool to detect early damage of renal IRI quantitatively.

Objective: To observe the relationship between the dynamic changes of plasma levels of urotensin II (UII) and the stability of coronary atherosclerotic plaque in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods: Our research included 2 groups: ACS group,n=135 consecutive patients treated in our hospital from 2013-03 to 2013-08 that including unstable angina pectoris (UAP) sub-group,n=7, non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) sub-group,n=22 and STEMI sub-group,n=106. In addition, there was a Control group,n=48 healthy subjects. Plasma levels of UII, hs-CRP and NT-proBNP were examined and compared among different groups at different time points.
Results: Compared with Control group at immediate admission, ACS group had increased plasma level of UII (39.82 ± 22.28) pg/ml vs (26.88 ± 6.09) pg/ml,P<0.001; UII level in STEMI sub-group was lower than NSTEMI sub-group (37.41 ± 22.74) pg/ml vs (48.07 ± 15.82) pg/ml,t=2.092,P <0.05. In ACS patients, UII had no correlation to hs-CRP (r=0.041, P=0.639) and NT-proBNP (r=0.112,P=0.261) at immediate admission. There were 58 ACS patients finished the 3 months follow-up study and their UII level was increased than immediate admission as (56.52 ± 20.70) pg/ml vs (51.58 ± 18.70) pg/ml,t=-2.366,P<0.05.
Conclusion: Plasma levels of UII have been changing in different type of ACS patients at immediate admission, UII presented decreasing trend from UAP to NSTEMI to STEMI, while it had increasing trend upon stabilized condition; the admission level of UII had no correlation to inflammatory marker hs-CRP and ventricular overload marker NT-proBNP. UII is not only related to the extent of atherosclerosis, but also related to the nature of atherosclerosis or the stability of plaques.

Objective:To analyze the distribution of radiodiagnosis resources in China and provide data support for further optimizing the allocation of radiodiagnosis resources and improving the weaknesses in radiation protection.Methods:The survey was carried out in accordance with the unified plan and using questionnaires of the national medical radiation protection monitoring program issued from 2017 to 2019. The survey included all medical institutions performing radiodiagnosis in China. The survey indicators included distribution of medical institutions performing radiodiagnosis, number of equipment, number of radiation workers and other information, the allocation of radiation protection equipment and the frequency of radiodiagnosis. The survey was performed using questionnaire survey and reported through the national medical radiation protection monitoring information system. In terms of the organization code, the name of the organizations excludes those repeatedly reported. The original data was exported in the form of excel table from the database for the purpose of statistical analysis.Results:By the end of 2019, except Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions and military systems, there were 68 924 diagnostic radiology medical institutions in China, 147 913 diagnostic radiology equipment, accounting for 91.7% of the total pieces of nationwide diagnostic radioprotective equipment. There are 367 201 radiologists in China, accounting for 76.1% of 406 830 radiologists in all medical institutions, with high allocation rate of radiation protection equipment. However, the allocation rate in first-class hospitals was the lowest among all levels of hospitals. The piece of protection equipment was increased with the grade of hospital. From perspective of of economic development level, the highest was found in the eastern region, with the lowest in the central and northeast region, both of which are about 90%.Conclusions:The current status of radiodiagnosis and protection was ascertained basically through this three-year round of survey, with a large number of survey data accumulated. This survey provides data support for the development of relevant protection policies and standards at national and provincial levels. Survey data indicated that there are still nearly 1 000 direct fluorescent screen fluoroscopy machines in use in China. Relevant policies and standards should be established to gradually phase out the equipment with serious radiation hazards.

Objective:To assess the safety and efficiency of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) combined delayed anticoagulant therapy in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy.Methods:Using prospective research methods, 35 AF patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy from September 2020 to June 2022 in Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University were selected. All patients were treated with LAAC and delayed anticoagulant therapy. The endpoints were the safety and efficacy of LAAC combined with delayed anticoagulant therapy. The primary endpoint of efficacy was the composite endpoint of postoperative death, myocardial infarction, hemorrhagic stroke and systemic embolism. The safety endpoint was major bleeding as defined by the International Society for Thrombosis and Hemostasis and clinically relevant non-major bleeding.Results:Among 35 patients, 21 were males and 14 were females; the age was (68.5 ± 9.3) years old; the CHA 2DS 2-VASc score was 5 (4, 6) scores; the time to the last stroke was 95 (42, 98) d; the National Institutes of Health stroke scale score at the time of stroke was 3 (1, 6) scores. All patients successfully completed LAAC without perioperative instrument-surface thrombosis, death, new stroke or bleeding events. Thirty-two patients continued oral anticoagulant therapy 45 d after LAAC. The patients were followed up for (12.6 ± 4.3) months, 1 patient experienced recurrent ischemic stroke, 2 patients endured mucosal bleeding, there were no adverse events such as all-cause death, cardiovascular death, systemic embolism and hemorrhagic stroke. Conclusions:The LAAC combined delayed anticoagulant therapy is efficient and safe in patients with AF. For AF patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy, LAAC combined with delayed anticoagulation therapy may be considered to further prevent ischemic stroke events.
