Objective To detect attenuated plaque by using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to investigate the influence of attenuated plaque on perioperative period of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods Coronary angiography and IVUS were performed in 85 hospitalized patients with AMI, additional implantation of stent was employed when necessary. According to the presence or absence of attenuated plaque determined by IVUS, the patients were divided into attenuated plaque group(n=35) and non-attenuated plaque group(n=50). The perioperative IVUS findings, the blood flow classification after myocardial infarction thrombolysis (TIMI) and the postoperative peak value of creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) determined were compared between the two groups. Results Among the 85 AMI patients, attenuated plaque was detected in 35 (41.2%) and no attenuated plaque was found in 50(58.8%). No statistically significant differences in the age, sex and risk factors existed between the two groups (P>0.05). The proportion of having attenuated plaque in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was obviously higher than that in patients with non-STEMI (P<0.01). In performing coronary angiography, the difference in TIMI blood flow classification between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05), but after balloon dilatation the TIMI grade 0-2 in theattenuated plaque group was strikingly higher than that in the non-attenuated plaque group (P=0.003). After PCI, the proportion of patients with elevated CK-MB value and higher peak value in the attenuated plaque group was remarkably higher than those in the non-attenuated plaque group (P<0.01). Conclusion The results of this study indicate that attenuated plaque can increase the incidence of no-reflow and slow reflow after PCI, which is more often seen in STEMI patients. The attenuated plaque carries significantly high risk, and the presence of attenuated plaque is helpful in predicting, the elevated extent of CK-MB value after PCI.

Objective To determine whether the presence of coronary collateral lfow, as evidenced by angiography, has a beneifcial effect on left ventricular function in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated by means of early percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods Between April 2012 to November 2013, 95 patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI successfully were analyzed. According to the Rentrop grade, these patients were divided into 2 groups:collateral circulation group (n=16) and non-collateral circulation group (n=79). The left ventricular function was evaluated within 24 hours after PCI and 30 days later. Results Comparison of 2 groups showed that collateral lfow was associated with better left ventricular ejection fraction within 24 hours and 30 days after PCI. And non-collateral lfwa was associated with more ventricular aneurysm formation. Conclusions The presence of angiographically detectable collaterals has a protective effect on left ventricular function in ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) treated by primary PCI.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effect of surgical clipping ruptured posterior communicating artery aneurysms (PCoAA) originating from fetal-type posterior cerebral artery (FPCA) via lateral supraorbital approach and the influencing factors of the outcomes.Methods:Patients with ruptured PCoAA originating from FPCA underwent surgical clipping via lateral supraorbital approach in the Cerebrovascular Center of Foshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to May 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. The Glasgow Outcome Scale was used to evaluate the outcomes of patients at 6 months after operation. 4-5 points were defined as good outcome, and 1-3 points were defined as poor outcome. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors for poor outcomes. Results:A total of 119 patients were enrolled, including 98 females (82.35%), aged 61.59±11.52 years old (range 32-78 years). Thirty patients (25.21%) had poor outcomes. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age (odds ratio [ OR] 2.935, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 2.117-5.391; P=0.012), hypertension ( OR 2.016, 95% CI 1.568-4.335; P=0.023), Hunt-Hess grade ( OR 2.408, 95% CI 1.326-5.068; P<0.001), modified Fisher grade ( OR 3.034, 95% CI 2.201-5.517; P<0.001), aneurysm size ( OR 1.793, 95% CI 1.427-2.622; P=0.009), preoperative intracranial hematoma volume ( OR 1.246, 95% CI 1.055-2.153; P=0.011) and surgical timing ( OR 2.152, 95% CI 1.316-3.240; P=0.006) were the independent risk factors for poor outcomes of the patients. Conclusions:Surgical clipping via lateral supraorbital approach can effectively treat the ruptured PcoAA with FPCA. Patients with age >65 years, with a history of hypertension, high Hunt-Hess grade, high modified Fisher grade, aneurysms >7.65 mm, preoperative intracranial hematoma volume >19.02 ml, and late surgery need to strengthen postoperative management to improve outcomes.

Objective:To explore the clinical manifestations and genetic characteristics of Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) to improve the ability of diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.Methods:The clinical features and auxiliary examinations and treatment of a proband with WHS caused by microdeletion of 4p16.3 segment who admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in December 2021 were recorded, and whole exome sequencing (WES) of the family was performed. The prognosis was followed up.Results:The female proband, 11 months old, presented with convulsions at the age of 8 months, with the characteristics of heat sensitivity and cluster seizures, and her identical twin sister had a similar medical history. Physical examination found malnutrition, retarded development, special face, prominent forehead, wide nasal bridge, small jaw, precordial murmur and grade 3/6 murmur in the whole period, hyperactivity of P2, and low limb muscle tone. The whole exon and copy number variation (CNV) test of the family revealed that the proband had a 1.99 Mb heterozygous deletion in the chromosome 4p16.3 segment, including WHSC1 (NSD2), WHSC2 (NEFLA) and other genes. Copy number variation sequencing (CNV-Seq) of the proband and her sister showed 1.97 and 1.92 Mb heterozygous deletion of chromosome 4p16.3, respectively. Genealogical analysis by quantitative polymerase chain reaction revealed that the CNV was de novo, and it was determined to be a pathogenic variant according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines. The proband took sodium valproate orally, and her sister took oral sodium valproate, zonisamide, and levetiracetam successively, and at the same time they received family rehabilitation training. The age at the last follow-up was 1 year and 8 months. Neither of them had convulsions again in the past 3 months, but the developmental delay was obvious. Conclusion:WHS patients may present with growth retardation, epilepsy, Greek warrior helmet-like special face, and congenital heart disease, and may have microdeletions in the chromosome 4p16.3 segment.
