The models of Cardiacglycoside-induced cardiotoxicity in guinea pigs were made by perfusing isolated heart with Langendorff appa- ratus. The free radicals generation in myocardium following the incidence of ventricular premative beat, ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation were measured respectively by the directed measurement with Electron Spin Resonance ( ESR ) techniques. The results showed the more severe toxicosis, the more much free radicals generate. Free radicals generated significantly in ventricular fibrillation and were scavenged by Superoxide dismutase ( SOD ) and sodium selenate.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and management of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) early after kidney transplantation (<3 months).Method Five cases of AMI early posttransplantation among 122 kidney transplant recipients from June 2011 to December 2012 were retrospectively reviewed.Results Of 5 AMI patients,there were 2 cases within one week postoperatively,one case at 11 th day postoperation,and the other two at 29th day and 46th day after operation respectively.Acute left heart failure was complicated in 3 cases within first two weeks.All the AMI patients had elevated TnⅠ levels which declined subsequently.The climax of TnⅠ levels in all the 5 AMI patients were above 5 ng/mL,and more than 20 ng/mL in two AMI patients within one week.Given by symptomatic and supportive treatment,antiplatelet and anticoagulation therapies and cardioprotective medications,all the five AMI patients were improved.Low molecular heparin was additionally administrated to the 2 cases within first week according to the severe conditions.New emerged small volume of hematocele was proved by ultrasound after 3 days and low molecular heparin was ceased.All the 5 patients survived and neither thrombolysis nor percutaneous coronary intervention therapy was given to them.Conclusion In addition to general prevention against AMI in kidney recipients with high risk factors,managing anemia and hypertensiorn,and improving graft function and systematic status are also important to decrease the risk of AMI.Moreover,cardioprotective therapy including antiplatelet therapies,beta-blockers,angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI)/angiotensin-2 receptor blockers and statins,which are recommended to the general population with AMI,will also profit to the kidney transplant recipients with AMI.However,aggressive intervention therapies might be more prudent to be used in this population.
