Objective To evaluate right ventricular systolic function in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) by real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE),and compared with cardiac magnetic resonance.Methods A total of 23 patients with PH who underwent MRI and echocardiography in the study.Right ventricular index of myocardial performance (RIMP),fractional area change (RVFAC),tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and tissue Doppler-derived tricuspid lateral annular systolic velocity (S') were measured by echocardiography.RV end-diastolic volume (RVEDV) and endsystolic volume (RVESV) were measured by RT-3DE and cardiac magnetic resonance and RV ejection fraction (RVEF) was calculated.Results A positive correlation was found between RVFAC and RVEF (r =0.595,P =0.003),there was a negative correlation between RIMP and RVEF (r =-0.745,P =0.000),has no correlation between TAPSE and RVEF (r =-0.029,P =0.896),a positive correlation was found between S' and RVEF (r =0.489,P =0.018).There were close correlation between RVEDV,RVESV and RVEF measured by RT-3DE and MRI (P ＜0.001,respectively);Bland-Altman analyses showed good agreement between them.Conclusions RT-3DE can noninvasive,accurate assessment right ventricular systolic function in patients with PH,and provide prognosis and treatment choice for clinical demands.

Objective To measure right ventricular longitudinal strain (RVLS) of pulmonary hypertension(PH) patients by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography,and explore its clinical application value on evaluating right ventricular function and hemodynamics in PH.Methods A total of 66 patients diagnosed as PH by right-heart catheterization were divided into Group Ⅰ (WHO FC Ⅰ / Ⅱ) and Group Ⅱ(WHO FC Ⅲ/Ⅳ) according to WHO pulmonary hypertension function classification.The right ventricular function parameters included:global right ventricular longitudinal strain (RVLSglobal),free-wall right ventricular longitudinal strain (RVLSFw),tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE),right ventricular fractional area change (FAC),tissue Doppler-derived tricuspid lateral annular systolic velocity (s') and right ventricular index of myocardial performance (RIMP).Systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) was calculated through tricuspid regurgitation pressure gradient.Hemodynamic parameters include:mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP),pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR),pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) and cardiac index (CI).Results ①Compared with Group Ⅰ,Group Ⅱ presented with higher sPAP (P ＜0.05).There also were significant differences between two groups in RVLSglobal,RVLSFw (P ＜0.01) and conventional right ventricular function parameters:TAPSE,RIMP and s' (P ＜0.05).②mPAP,PVR and CI had significant difference between two groups (P ＜0.01),while PCWP had no significant difference.mPAP and PVR increased more remarkable and CI decreased more significant in Group Ⅱ.③RVLSglobal had positive correlation with mPAP (r =0.646,P =0.000) and PVR (r =0.628,P =0.000) measured by right-heart catheterization;RVLSFW also had positive correlation with mPAP (r =0.652,P =0.000) and PVR (r =0.634,P =0.000).Conclusions Right ventricular longitudinal strain could evaluate the degree of decrease in right ventricular function of PH patients and reflex the change of hemodynamics at the same time,which may offer more reliable information to clinical treatment.

Objective To discuss the correlation between right ventricular function and systolic pulmonary artery pressure (PASP ) in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH)and explore the change of right ventricular function under different degree of PASP.Methods One hundred and thirty-seven CTEPH patients were divided into four groups by PASP:Group Ⅰ (50 mmHg≤PASP<70 mmHg),20 cases;Group Ⅱ (70 mmHg≤PASP<90 mmHg),35 cases;Group Ⅲ,55 cases (90 mmHg ≤ PASP < 1 10 mmHg);Group Ⅳ (PASP ≥ 1 10 mmHg),27 cases.Echocardiographic parameters include:PASP,tricuspid regurgitation area (ATR ),left ventricular transverse diameter (LVTD), right ventricular transverse diameter (RVTD),inner diameter of main pulmonary artery (DMPA ),inner diameter of left arterial branch (DLPA ),inner diameter of right pulmonary arterial branch (DRPA ).Right ventricular function parameters include:tissue Doppler-derived tricuspid lateral annular systolic velocity (s'),tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE),RV index of myocardial performance (RIMP)and right ventricular fractional area change (FAC).Results There were significant differences in RVTD, TAPSE,FAC and RIMP in CTEPH patients under different PASP(P <0.05).RV structure and function was significantly correlated with PASP in CTEPH patients.With the elevation of PASP,RV was significantly enlarged and RV function becomes worse.Conclusions Echocardiography may contribute to evaluate RV function in CTEPH patients and provide basis for clinical treatment and prognosis evaluation.

Objective To assess the right atrial(RA) function using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography(2D-STE) and the value of predicting WHO functional class in patients with pulmonary hypertension(PH).Methods Fifty-four consecutive PH patients were studied and compared with a control group of 24 healthy volunteers.RA function was evaluated by 2D-STE,and the following parameters were recorded:an average longitudinal strain (LS) curve that included LSpos during RA filling and LSneg representing RA active contraction (their summation is LStot),the phasic RA volumes,total RA emptying fraction (TotEF),RA passive(PassEF) and active emptying fraction(ActEF).The associations between these indices and the results of invasive pulmonary hemodynamics,cardiac structure and function level were evaluated.Results LStot,TotEF,LSpos,PassEF were significantly lower in PH patients than in controls(all P<0.01).ActEF/TotEF were significantly higher in WHO functional class (WHO-FC) Ⅱ and WHO-FC Ⅲ patients than in controls(all P<0.05),while were lower in WHO-FCIV patients than in controls(P<0.001).Among PH patients,LStot was negatively correlated with greater RA size and RA pressure (all P<0.01).LStot was also associated with right ventricular (RV) functional and overload parameters.In receiver-operator characteristic analysis,RA LStot was of optimal accuracy for prediction of WHO-FC≥Ⅲ in PH patients (P=0.002).Conclusions PH is associated with impaired reservoir and conduit function,but active contract function of RA is enhanced in WHO-FC Ⅱ and WHO-FC Ⅲ patients,and reduced in WHO-FCIV patients.RA LStot confers an optimal predictive effect of poor WHO-FC in PH patients and indicating prognosis.

Objective To evaluate right ventricular function of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) patients by echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR),and to evaluate the value of clinical application of those right heart function indexes.Methods 32 patients with CTEPH who underwent CMR and echocardiography were involved in the study.Right ventricular index of myocardial performance (RIMP),fractional area change (FAC),tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) and tissue Doppler-derived tricuspid lateral annular systolic velocity (S') were measured by echocardiography.Right ventricular end-diastolic volume (RVEDV) and end-systolic volume (RVESV) were measured by cardiac magnetic resonance and right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF) was calculated.Results A positive correlation was found between FAC and RVEF (r =0.423,P =0.022),there was a negative correlation between RIMP and RVEF (r =-0.387,P =0.048),there was no correlation between TAPSE and RVEF (r =0.451,P =0.22),a positive correlation was found between S' and RVEF (r =0.689,P =0.000).Conclusions The echocardiographic parameters FAC,RIMP and S' can reflect right ventricular function in patients with CTEPH and can be used as a routine clinical parameters.

Objective To detect the new views for pulmonary vascular by transesophageal echocardiography(TEE) during lung transplantation.Methods Seventeen cases with respiratory failure underwent lung transplantation.A series of scans were detected by TEE during preoperative anesthesia, preand pro-pulmonary vascular occlusion and pro-donor lung, and bronchus, pulmonary veins, pulmonary artery anastomoses.Left and right lung veins open and left and right pulmonary artery branch were key to observed.Pulmonary artery trunk and branch diameter, velocity of blood flow were measured.Results All left and right pulmonary artery,pulmonary vein images were given by TEE.TEE detected the normal blood flow velocity of pulmonary artery branches during pre-operation,average of 65 cm/s.After clipping the side of the pulmonary artery, the lateral pulmonary blood flow disappeared.TEE detected pulmonary veins,pulmonary artery anastomoses pro-operation.Except for 1 case of anastomotic pulmonary vein flow velocity increased,all the pulmonary vein and pulmonary artery branch anastomoses flow velocity increased slightly faster than those before transplantation (mean pulmonary artery branch of 160 cm/s, the average pulmonary vein 149 cm/s).Conclusions TEE can monitor diameter and flow velocity of pulmonary artery branch and pulmonary vein during lung transplantation,and can detect the rightventricular function.The views of left and right branch pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein branches play an important role during lung transplantation.

Objective To evaluate the application value of cardiopulmonary ultrasound(CPUS) in patients with interstitial lung diseases(ILD).Methods Ninety patients with clinically diagnosed interstitial lung diseases and 30 healthy subjects were included in this study.The conventional echocardiographic parameters and right ventricular free wall longitudinal strain (RVLS_FW) were measured in all patients and healthy subjects.The degree of pulmonary fibrosis or the disease severity of each ILD patient was scored using a semi-quantitative scoring method.Patients’ pulmonary function parameters and clinical outcome score (GAP score) were recorded.Fourteen patients belong to other types of ILD and 19 patients with incomplete clinical data were unable to perform GAP scoring,finally 57 patients' clinical and ultrasonographic parameters were measured.On the basis of the pulmonary arterial systolic pressure (PASP) obtained by Doppler echocardiography,90 patients were divided into two groups:ILD patients with pulmonary hypertension(ILDpH,PASP ≥36 mmHg,1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) and ILD patients without PH (ILDNpH,PASP＜ 36 mmHg).Comparsion between ILDpH,ILDNpH and healthy subjects were then evaluated.According to the GAP score,all cases were divided into three groups:low risk,moderate risk and high risk.Statistical analysis was performed to examine the relationship between CPUS parameters and clinical parameters.Results ①Compared with ILDNpH patients,ILDpH patients had significantly lower right ventricular function,wider basal right ventricular diameter (RVD),proximal right ventricular outflow diameter (DRvor1) and right pulmonary artery diameter (DRPA).Compared with healthy subjects,ILDNpH patients had mildly lower right ventricular function and wider left pulmonary artery diameter (DLPA) and right ventricular outflow tract dimensions at the distal or pulmonic valve (DRvoT2).②A good correlation was found between lung ultrasound (LUS) scores and pulmonary function parameters,especially diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide of the lung(DLco)(r =-0.68,P ＜0.001).③With the increased risk of patients,the right ventricular function was gradually decreased,DRVOT2,DRPA,DLPA were gradually widened,and the lung ultrasound score was gradually increased.A weak correlation was found between GAP scores with RVLS_FW,LUS scores,DRpA(r =0.44,0.34,0.31,P ＜0.05).Conclusions CPUS parameters are useful in the assessment of interstitial lung disease and could reflect the prognosis of ILD patients to some extent.Therefore,on the basis of GAP scores,addition of RVLS_FW and LUS score will be more helpful to evaluate the prognosis ofILD patients.

Objective To study the correlation between serum adiponectin along with insulin resistanee and vascular dilation function in patients with different rates of glucose metabolism.Method A total of 83 patients aged 50-65 years,including 17 with normal glucose tolerance(NGT),22 with impaired fasting glucose (IFG),23 with impaired glucose tolerance(IGT)and 21 with diabetes(DM)were enrolled. Serum adiponectin was measured,and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR)and B cell function index were used to evaluate the function of insulin secretion before and during oral glucose tolerance test(OGTr).The brachial artery responses to flow-mediated endothelium-dependent vascular dilation(EDVD)and nitroglycerin-mediated vascular dilation (EIVD) were evaluated by using the vascular ultrasound with high resolution.Results The serum adiponectin and EDVD decreased that the degrees of reduction from slightness to greatness were in turn from NGT,IFG,IGT to DM,whereas,the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) increased just in reverse order.Adiponectin was negatively associated with HOMA-IR(r=-0.353,P<0.01)but positively associated with EDVD and EIVD(rl=0.391,r2=0.375,P<0.01),and was not associated with HOMA-B.On the other hand,EDVD was not associated with HOMA-IR(P>0.05).In a multiple regression analysis with a stepwise manner to predict adiponectin concentration and EDVD.HOMA-IR was supposed to predict adiponectin concentration.Meanwhile APN but not HOMA-IR was used to predict EDVD(P<0.05).Condusions The decrease in serum adiponectin,endothelial dysfunction and insulin resistance can be observed in the early stage of impaired glucose metabolism. Serum adiponectin concentration appears to be associated with vascular function and insulin resistance.The association between serum adiponectin concentration and vascular function seems to be independence from its link with insulin resistance index.
