Objective To investigate the relationship between high sensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) and cardiac function in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy(DCM). Methods We compared the differences of NYHA classes,left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD) between normal hs-CRP group and elevated hs-CRP group,and analyzed hs-CRP levels of different NYHA classes,then investigated the correlation between hs-CRP and LVEF and between hs-CRP and LVEDD. Results The NYHA stage,LVEF,LVEDD were 2.06?0.90,(38.58?5.98)% and 58.94?6.14mm respectively in normal hs-CRP group,while those were 2.89?0.88,(33.46?6.55)% and 66.87?9.34mm in elevated hs-CRP group,and there were significant differences between the two groups.The hs-CRP was 2.66?1.80mg/L in NYHAⅠgroup,while that was 5.02?3.27mg/L in Ⅱgroup,5.25?3.18mg/L in Ⅲ group,and 8.84?2.60mg/L in Ⅳ group.Levels of hs-CRP in Ⅱgroup and Ⅲ group were both significantly higher than those inⅠgroup(P

Objective To study the effect of erythropoietin on cardiac function of the patients with acute mycardial infarction (AMI). Methods 48 patients with AMI successfully treated with thrombolytic therapy were randomized into two group,2000 units of recombinant human erytfu-opoietin(rh-EPO) were administrated once a time in therapeutic group,3 times on alternate days in one week and total for 4 weeks. The peak value of serum creatine kinase(CK) and creatinkinase isozyme MB (CK-MB)were measured, myocardial infarct size (S) was estimated by Hindmen's QRS scoring system, and the diameter of left ventricular end diastolic(LVEDd) and left ventricular injection fraction (LVEF) were determined with echocardiography at the 4th weekend in both groups. Results CK, CKMB and S in therapeutic group were lower than in control group (P < 0.05). LVEDd and LVEF were also improved in the therapeutic group. Conclusion rh-EPO can significantly lessen the size of isehemia and infarct myocardium, mitigate the infarction degree and improve the cardiac function slightly in AMI patients.

Objective To investigate the expression changes of SSR in the process of cardiac remodeling.Methods Myocardial infarction (MI) was induced by left anterior descending coronary artery ligation in mice to establish cardiac remodeling model.Mice subjected to isoproterenol (ISO) subcutaneous injection for 2 weeks to establish acute cardiac injury model.Mice subjected to aortic banding (AB) to establish a mouse model of cardiac hypertrophy.RT-PCR was used to detect the expression change of SSR in various cardiac remodeling models.Results The expression levels of SSR subunit 1 (SSR1) and 3 (SSR3) were significantly decreased in mice after 2 weeks of MI (P ＜ 0.05),and were also decreased in acute cardiac injury induced by 2 weeks of ISO injection (P ＜ 0.05),and reduced afterl week of AB operation (P ＜ 0.05).However,the expression of SSR1 and SSR3 increased at 2 weeks after AB (P ＜ 0.05),and sustained to 8 wccks after AB (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The expression of SSR3 and SSR1 in different models of cardiac remodeling were significantly changed,and showed dynamic changes,suggesting that it may participate in the occurrence and development of cardiac remodeling.

Objective To observe the effects of angiotensin Ⅱ(AngⅡ) AT 1 receptor antagonist,valsartan and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist,spironolactone on growth factors and type Ⅰ collagen in aorta in spontaneously hypertensive rat(SHR).Methods Six-week male SHRs were divided into three groups at random:SHR control group,valsartan group and spironolactone group;six homogenous Wistar Kyoto(WKY) rats was served as normal control group.Valsartan 30mg?kg -1 ?d -1 ,spironolactone 20mg?kg -1 ?d -1 were respectively administered to rats in valsartan group and spironolactone group.Expressions of transforming growth factor ? 1(TGF ? 1),hepatocyte growth factor(HGF) and type Ⅰ collagen gene mRNA in aorta were determined by RT-PCR.Results Compared with those of untreated SHR group,levels of TGF?1 and type Ⅰ collagen gene mRNA expression in aortas treated with valsartan and spironolactone for 13 weeks were significantly reduced(P

Objective To investigate the features and influence factors of cardiac function in preterm infants.Methods One hundred and eleven preterm infants were divided into three groups according to the gestational age which was 28-31+6,32-33+6 and 34-36+6 weeks respectively.Fifty term-birth infants at gestational age of 37-41+6 weeks were taken as control group.The cardiac function was examined by SonoSite 180 PLUS color Doppler ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus.The parameters of cardiac function included heart rate,peak flow rate of aorta valve orifice (AV),peak flow rate of pulmonary artery valve orifice (PV),cardiac output (CO),stroke volume (SV),left ventricular end diastolic volume (LVEDV),left ventricular end systolic volume (LVESV),the ratio of early (E) and late (A) diastolic velocities of mitral and tricuspid valves (MVE/A,TVE/A).Within one week after delivery,the cardiac function was examined,and the cardiac function of preterm infants with different gestational age were compared.Another 162 preterm infants were divided into four groups according to the time at examination as 12 h-,24 h-,72 h-and 1 week-28 d.The influence factors of cardiac function were determined by multi-factor linear regression analysis.Results The AV,PV,CO,LVEDV,LVESV and SV increased with the increasing of gestational age.MVE/A (1.13±0.17,1.14±0.18,1.13±0.18) and TVE/A (0.90±0.16,0.90±0.13,0.90±0.15) of 28-31+6,32-33+6 and 34-36+6 weeks group were higher than those of control group (1.28±0.17 and 1.04±0.20),respectively (P＜0.05).PV of 72 h-group and 1 week-28 d group were higher than that of 12 h-group [(79.60±11.22) cm/s and (78.86±13.64) cm/s vs (72.61±8.56) cm/s](P＜0.05).The heart rate of 1 week-28 d group was higher than that of other three groups (P＜0.05).Both CO and SV were positively related to body weight and gestational age (r=0.55 and 0.36,0.61and 0.52,respectively,P＜0.05).Conclusions The left ventricular pump function increases with the increasing of gestational age,while the diastolic function of left and right ventricle of preterm infants does not change significantly in the first month of life.The PV of preterm infants significantly increases 72 h after delivery.The body weight and gestational age are important influence factors of cardiac function in preterm infants.

Methods Twenty hundred term infants were divided into A 、B 、C and D groups by age which was 0 ～ 24 h, ～ 72 h, ～ 1 w and 28 d respectively. The lung ventilative and mechanical function were measured respectively by using techniques of tidal breathing flow-volume loop(TBFVL)and the single occlusion. The Master screen Paed-lung function devices of Germanic JAEGER Co. was be used in this study. The parameter of pulmonary function including minute volume(MV) ,tidal volume (TV), respiratory system compliance(Crs) and respiratory system resistance (Rrs). The cardiac function were measured by using SonoSite 180 PLUS color Doppler ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus. The main parameter of cardiac function including cardiac output(CO) and stroke volume(SV). Results The TV of A, B ,C and D group were 20. 2 ± 3.78,21. 1 ± 3.71,22. 3 ± 4. 48 and 23. 9 ±4.90 (ml)respectively, the TV of C and D group were higher than that of A group, and the TV of D group was higher than that of B group (P ＜ 0. 05).There were no significantly difference of Crs, Rrs among A, B, C and D group(P ＞ 0. 05). The CO of A,B,C and D group were 0.93 ±0. 23,0.93 ±0.23,1.02 ±0.21 and 1.08 ±0.27 (L/min) ,the CO of D group was higher than that of A and B groups (P ＜ 0. 05). The CO was negative correlation with Rrs (r = - 0. 16,P ＜ 0. 05) and positive correlation with MV、 TV、 Crs (r was 0. 50、 0. 54、0. 13 respectively, P ＜ 0. 05).Conclusion The lung ventilative function is mature gradually with increasing age. The cardiac output has been obviously improved for postnatal 1 week in the term infants. The pulmonary ventilative function and mechanic parameter are important effective factors of cardiac function.

Objective To investigate the effect of lycopene (Lyc) on H9c2 cell apoptosis induced by angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ).Methods Using Ang Ⅱ (10 μmol/L) to stimulate H9c2 cells,we observed the protective effect of Lyc on H9c2 cells apoptosis.The H9c2 cells viability induced by different consideration of Lyc or Ang Ⅱ or both was detected by CCK8 assay.The expression levels of Bax and Bcl-2 in H9c2 cells were determined by real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Western blot was conducted to detect the protein expressions of Bax,Caspase 3,Caspase 9 and Bcl-2 in H9c2 cells.The apoptotic ratio of H9c2 cells was observed by TUNEL assay.Results Compared with control group,Ang Ⅱ could decrease the viability of H9c2 cells to (92.87±4.37)％.The result of RT-PCR showed that Ang Ⅱ decreased the expression level of Bcl-2,and Bax level was increased under the stimulation of Ang Ⅱ (P＜0.05),while the expression level of Bcl-2 was increased and Bax level was decreased under the co-stimulation of Ang Ⅱ and Lyc in a concentration dependent manner,which indicated that Lyc ameliorated the apoptosis of H9c2 cells.The result of western blot showed that the protein expressions of Bax,Caspase 3 and Caspase 9 were increased,but Bcl-2 was decreased after the stimulation of Ang Ⅱ (P＜0.05).While these phenomenon reversed apparently under the co stimulation of Ang Ⅱ and Lyc.A large number of apoptotic cells were observed under the stimulation of Ang Ⅱ through TUNEL assay.But the number of apoptotic cells reduced significantly under the co-stimulation of Lyc and Ang Ⅱ (P ＜0.05).Conclusions Lyc ameliorates the H9c2 cell apoptosis induced by Ang Ⅱ,which indicates that Lyc may have an important role in the treatment of various cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To investigate the efifcacy and adverse effect of ultrasound-guided injection of different dosage of thrombin in the treatment of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm formed after vascular intervention. Methods 48 cases of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm after vascular interventional operation in our hospital were randomly divided into two groups according to the dosage thrombin given.Under ultrasound guidance, patients in the observation group (n=24) received injection thrombin 100U/ml while patients in the control group received injection of thrombin 500U/ml.All the operational procedures were identical between the 2 groups. Results No statistical differences were found in clinical characteristics, total number injection needed and operation time between two groups.Recurrence pseudoaneurysm was noted in 1 cases in the observation group. 2 cases of superifcial femoral arteries thrombin and 1 case of fever were recorded in control group. There was no difference in adverse event rates between the 2 group. Conclusions Ultrasound-guided injection with low dose thrombin in the treatment of post interventional femoral artery pseudoaneurysm is equally effective as higher dose.

Objective To investigate the time and risk factors for spontaneous closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants. Methods One hundred and seventy-seven preterm infants with arterial ductus unclosed were divided into three groups according to their gestational age as 28-31+6 weeks group (n=44),32-34+6 weeks group (n=59) and 35-36+6 weeks group (n=74).PDA was diagnosed by echocardiography in time of ≤12 h,-24 h,-48 h,-72 h,-96 h,-120 h,-144 h and ＞144 but ≤168 h after birth.The parameters of cardiac function included peak flow rate of aorta valve orifice,peak flow rate of pulmonary artery valve orifice,cardiac output,stroke volume,ejection fraction,the ratio of early (E) and late (A) diastolic velocities of mitral and tricuspid valves.The risk factors of arterial ductus spontaneous closure were determined by Logistic regression analysis.Results The cumulative spontaneous closure rates of preterm infants in three groups were 95.5％,100.0％ and 100.0％ within 168 h after birth respectively. There were significant differences of cumulative spontaneous closure rate in different time among three groups (x2 =4.23,7.45,12.46,7.14,4.75,6.47,3.89 and 3.89 respectively,P＜0.05).After spontaneous closure of PDA during 12-24 h, peak flow rate of pulmonary artery valve orifice increased [(0.69±0.12) cm/s vs (0.65±0.12) cm/s,t=2.37,P=0.02],peak flow rate of aorta valve orifice [(0.65±0.11) cm/s vs (0.69±0.12) cm/s,t=2.51,P=0.02] and ejection fraction [(63.00±8.50) ％ vs (66.00±8.50) ％,t=2.34,P=0.02] decreased.Logistic regression analysis showed that,the risk factors of preterm infants with arterial ductus unclosed within 24 hours after birth were gestation age (OR =1,825,95％CI:1.239-2.689),1 min Apgar score 0-3 (OR=1.946,95％CI:1.572-3.527) and early onset sepsis (OR=3.215,95％CI:1.245-5.463) ; gestation age (OR=3.270,95％CI:1.852-5.774),twins (OR=3.634,95％CI:1.489-8.871),1 min Apgar score 0-3 (OR=3.752,95％CI:2.156-5.436),Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage of respiratory distress syndrome (OR=2.897,95％CI:1.764-5.348) and early onset sepsis (OR=3.172,95％CI:2.134-6.437) were the risk factors of preterm infants with arterial ductus unclosed during 24-48 hours after birth; and gestational age (OR=2.471,95％CI:1.087-5.613),1 min Apgar score 0-3 (OR=2.985,95％CI: 1.469-5.736), Ⅲ-Ⅳ stage of respiratory distress syndrome (OR =3.645,95％ CI:1.879-6.282),fluid volume excess (OR =4.135,95％CI:2.146-7.428) and early onset sepsis (OR=3.246,95％CI:2.146-4.526) for those with arterial ductus unclosed during 48-72 hours after birth. Conclusions The spontaneous closure rate of arterial ductus in the newborn infants whose gestational age over 28 weeks was above 90％ in the first week after birth.There was no difference of left ventricular pump function between before and after the spontaneous closure.Reducing the incidence of premature birth,twins,severe asphyxia,severe respiratory distress syndrome, fluid excess and early onset sepsis might improve the spontaneous closure of arterial ductus.
