Journal of Interventional Radiology 2014;(5):456-459
Diabetic foot is one of the most common and serious complications of diabetes. Early detection and prompt treatment is of great significance to the prevention of diabetic foot. Imaging is the most convenient and effective method for making an early diagnosis of diabetic foot, and imaging examination can directly and accurately reveal the peripheral vascular disorders, peripheral neuropathy, soft tissue complications, muscle and tendon lesions, bone complications, etc. thus the lesion’s extent can be exactly evaluated, which provides reliable basis for the selection and evaluation of the clinical therapeutic scheme. This paper aims to make a general review about the recent imaging research progress in diabetic foot.

Objective To establish carotid artery bifurcation aneurysm in canine, and to clarify whether specific hemodynamic insult in combination with arterial wall degeneration will lead to the occurrence and development of aneurysms. Methods New bifurcation aneurysm model of common carotid artery (CCA) was successfully established in 18 dogs, which were randomly divided into the elastase-treated bifurcation group (EBG,n=9) and the control bifurcation group (CBG,n=9). Three dogs were treated with elastase insult to both straight sections of CCA and were used as elastase-treated straight section group (ESG,n=3). Angiographic and hemodynamic analysis was conducted immediately after the operation, as well as 12 and 24 weeks after the operation. Histopathological examination was performed 12 and 24 weeks after the operation. Results Angiography showed that new aneurysm (mean diameter 3.2 ±0.4 mm) was formed at the apex of CCA bifurcation in 5 dog models of EBG group, while no new aneurysm was observed in both CBG and ESG groups. In EBG group, no rupture of the new aneurysm occurred during the follow-up period. Histological analysis revealed that in EBG group the inner elastic lamina was discontinued, the elastic fiber was disrupted, the muscle layer became thinned, the smooth muscle cells were reduced, and the inflammatory cell (macrophage) infiltration as well as the expressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were increased;these changes were statistically significant when compared with those in CBG group and ESG group (P<0.001). Postoperative hemodynamic analysis indicated that in EBG group the wall shear stress at the apex of CCA bifurcation was reduced, the blood flow velocity was decreased, with the relative and total pressure being the highest;all the above changes returned to normal after arterial wall remodeling. Conclusion The results of this study indicate that the arterial wall degeneration and the hemodynamic effect at the apex of CCA bifurcation can lead to new aneurysm formation in canine model.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the risk of hidden blood loss about applying rivaroxaban after total hip arthroplasty.
METHODSFrom October 2009 to May 2012,88 patients with femoral head necrosis were treated with primary total hip arthroplasty. All the patients were divided into Rivaroxaban group(44 cases)and control group(44 cases). There were 25 males and 19 females in the Rivaroxaban group, with an average age of (58.48 +/- 15.19) years old; in the control group,24 patients were male and 20 patients were female, with an average age of (61.11 +/- 13.54) years old. The patients in the Rivaroxaban group took Rivaroxaban orally from the first day after operation with a dose of 10 mg each day, and treatment course was 14 days. The patients in the control group took placebo orally at the same time. Dominant blood loss and transfusion were recorded, blood routine examinations were taken before operation and at 3 days after operation. The total blood loss and hidden blood loss were calculated according to the formula.
RESULTSThe mean total blood loss was (1509.56 +/- 325.23) ml and the hidden blood loss was(581.47 +/- 215.01) ml, accounting for (37.88 +/- 10.42)% in the Rivaroxaban group. The mean total blood loss was (1262.30 +/- 397.95) ml and the hidden blood loss was (395.59 +/- 97.33) ml, accounting for (30.62 +/- 0.20)% in the control group. The total blood loss, hidden blood loss and transfusion in the Rivaroxaban group was significantly more than those in control group,b ut there was no significant difference on dominant blood loss between two groups.
CONCLUSIONRivaroxaban increased the overall bleeding risk of total hip arthroplasty, especially hidden bleeding risk, which should be careful used.

Objective To assess the clinical value of batroxobin plus aspirin therapy in reducing the incidence of arterial re-stenosis or re-occlusion in diabetic patients with lower-limb ischemia after receiving angioplasty. Methods A total of 110 diabetic patients with symptomatic arterial obstructions were randomly divided into study group (n=50) and control group (n=60). Aspirin 100 mg/d plus batroxobin 5 IU every other day for six times was used in patients of the study group, while only aspirin 100 mg/d was used in patients of the control group. The follow-up finishing point was the end of 12 months. The arterial re-stenosis or re-occlusion was evaluated with magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) and/or vascular sonography. Amputation above the ankle, death, and the cumulative rate of amputation or death were determined, and the limb salvage and survival rates were assessed by using Kaplan-Meier analysis method. Results Twelve months after the treatment, the occurrence of restenosis in the study group and the control groups was 42.8%and 28.9% respectively (P = 0.002). MR angiography and color- duplex sonography revealed that the restenosis occurrence was much higher in infrapopliteal artery (P = 0.003) and in longer (length > 10 cm) diseased artery (P = 0.001). Twelve months after angioplasty Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the limb salvage-survival rates of the study group and the control group were 78.2%and 93.5%respectively (log-rank test, P = 0.032 4). Conclusion Combination use of batroxobin and aspirin can effectively reduce the occurrence of restenosis after arterial angioplasty, and the clinical effect is particularly better for the artery distal to the knee and the artery with longer lesion (length > 10 cm), besides this treatment can also improve limb salvage rate.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of establishing aneurysm model at the carotid artery bifurcation in experimental dogs. Methods New aneurysm model at the common carotid artery (CCA) bifurcation was established in 18 experimental dogs, which were randomly and equally divided into study group (n =9) and control group (n=9). In the dogs of the study group, the bifurcation top was treated with elastase, while in the dogs of the control group the bifurcation top was treated with saline. Angiography was separately performed immediately after, and at 12 and 24 weeks after the operation to observe the changes of the aneurysm top. Pathological examination was separately carried out at 12 and 24 weeks after the operation. Results Angiography showed that nascent aneurysm formation (mean diameter of 3.2 ± 0.4 mm) was demonstrated at the arterial bifurcation top in 5 dogs of the study group; while no nascent aneurysm at the arterial bifurcation top was observed in the control group. During the follow-up period, no rupture of the nascent aneurysm occurred in the study group. Pathological examination revealed that discontinued internal elastic membrane, elastic fiber fracture, thinning muscle layer and reduction of smooth muscle cells were detected in the aneurysm at bifurcation top in the study group; when compared with those in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P< 0.001). Conclusion The elastase-induced digestive degeneration of artery wall can cause new aneurysm formation in the newly-established aneurysm located at carotid artery bifurcation in experimental dogs.

Objective To study the correlation between single point pulse wave velocity (PWVβ)of different peripheral arteries and coronary artery stenosis quantity obtained by coronary arteriongraphy so as to explore the diagnostic value of PWVβin coronary heart disease.Methods We made a retrospective analysis of 183 patients receiving coronary arteriongraphy in our hospital from October 2013 to May 2014.Based on stenosis quantity of coronary artery,the patients were divided into one-vessel lesion group,double-vessel lesion group,multi-vessel lesion group,and nonstenosis as control group.Clinical data of all the patients were collected before coronary arteriongraphy.Different peripheral artery PWVβwas measured with vascular echo tracking (ET)technology for statistical analysis.Results As the lesion vessel number increased,PWVβandβvalues in three peripheral arteries presented a rising tendency.Correlation analysis indicated that PWVβvalues in the three peripheral arteries showed a positive correlation with coronary artery involvement degree.The correlation between PWVβvalue of the common carotid artery and coronary artery involvement degree was most obvious,followed by the femoral artery and the popliteal artery.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value and Youden index of the common carotid artery PWVβvalue to diagnose coronary heart disease were 91.2%,84.5%,92.7%,81.7 and 0.76,respectively.Non-conditional multi-factor Logistic regression analysis was implemented by choosing age, sex,smoking history,hypertension history,diabetes history,hyperlipemia,BMI,HDL-C,LDL-C,TC,TG,GLU,SBP,DBP,UA,Cr,and PWVβ value as independent variables,and the degree of coronary artery disease as dependent variable.The results revealed that age,hypertension history,diabetes history,and PWVβ value were independent risk factors for coronary heart disease.Conclusion PWVβ value can be regarded as one index for observing artherosclerosis lesion degree and predicting early lesion.PWVβvalue of the common carotid artery can be an important index for dynamically observing the occurrence and development of artherosclerosis.
