Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2013;36(27):24-27
Objective To compare the prevention effect of atrial fibrillation recurrence in hypertensive patients by telmisartan versus nifedipine.Methods Ninety-eight cases of hypertensive with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation patients were enrolled and divided into telmisartan group and nifedipine group with 49 cases each by random digits table method.Telmisartan group was given telmisartan 80 mg/d,nifedipine group was given nifedipine 30 mg/d.Dose of the drug needed to be adjusted according to individual condition until achieving the target.Followed-up for 18 months.Observed two groups of recurrence of atrial fibrillation and the recurrence time for the first time,recorded before and after the treatment of cardiac parameters:including left atrial diameter (LAD),left ventricular end diastolic diameter(LVDD),left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT),interventricular septum thickness (IVST),left atrial volume index(LAVI) and left ventricular mass index(LVMI).Results The blood pressure after treatment in two groups was lower than that before treatment,there was statistically significant difference (P< 0.05),but there was no statistically significant difference between two groups (P > 0.05).After treatment,the recurrence of atrial fibrillation,atrial fibrillation recurrence time for the first time in two groups had no statistical significance (P > 0.05).But the incidence of persistent atrial fibrillation in telmisartan group was significantly lower than that in nifedipine group [4.1% (2/49) vs.16.3% (8/49)],there was statistically significant difference (P =0.045).The cardiac parameters between two groups before treatment had no significant difference (P > 0.05).After treatment,the cardiac parameters in two groups were signifcantly reduced,there were statistically significant differences (P < 0.05).Moreover,the LAD,LVPWT,LAVI and LVMI in telmisartan group after treatment were significantly lower than those in nifedipine group [(37.6 ± 2.9) mm vs.(38.9 ± 2.4) mm,(11.6 ± 1.0) mm vs.(12.0 ± 0.9) mm,(22.0 ± 3.6) ml/m2 vs.(23.9 ± 4.2)ml/m2,(120.4 ± 18.2) g/m2 vs.(129.5 ± 19.2) g/m2],there were statistically significant differences (P < 0.05).Conclusions Nifedipine and telmisartan can effectively lower the blood pressure.But telmisartan is superior to preventing atrial fibrillation recurrences and developing in hypertensive with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation patients,promoting cardiac parameters and postponing myocardial remodeling.
5.The relationships of antithrombinⅢand D-dimer with pediatric critical illness score in children with sepsis
Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2014;(3):224-227
Objective To explore the relationships between antithrombinⅢ(AT-Ⅲ) and D-dimer (DD) level with pediat-ric critical illness score (PCIS) in children with sepsis, and to evaluate the values in assessing the severity of illness. Methods Sixty-one children with sepsis were included in this study. Within 24 hours after admission, blood samples were tested for the ac-tivity of AT-Ⅲ and DD level. The PCIS was calculated. According to PCIS, the patients were divided into extremely critical group (<70), critical group (71-80) and non-critical group (80-100). According to the prognosis, the patients were divided into survival and death groups. The differences of the activity of AT-Ⅲand DD were compared and the relationship with PCIS were analyzed. Results The activity of AT-Ⅲ was lower and DD level was higher in critical group than in non-critical group (P<0.01) and the changes in extremely critical group were more evident than those in critical group. The activity of AT-Ⅲand PCIS were positively correlated (r=0.548, P<0.01).The DD level and PCIS was negatively correlated (r=-0.657, P<0.01). Compared with survival group, the level of DD was significantly higher in death group (P<0.01), and PCIS and the activity of AT-Ⅲwere significantly lower in death group (P<0.05). Conclusions The patients with sepsis have dysfunctions of coagulation. The activity of AT-Ⅲ, DD level are correlated with illness severity, and can be useful for assessing the severity of sepsis.
