Objective In this angiographic trial,we compared the efficacy and safety of Pro-UK with urokinase in Chinese patients with acute myocardial infarction.Methods We recruited patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction presented within 6 hours in Beijing Tongren Hospital offiliated to Capital Vnirersity of Medical Sciences from Feb.2003 to Mar.2004.After giving informed consent,patients were assigned a bolus and infusion of Pro-UK or a infusion of urokinase.The primary efficacy end points and safety end points were observed.Results Overall 26 patients were enrolled in the trial,of whom 16 patients were assigned to receive Pro-UK(6 patients to 40mg,6 patients to 50 mg,4 patients to 60 mg),and 10 patients to urokinase.The rates of TIMI grade 3 flow were 56.25%(9/16)with Pro-UK and 70%(7/10) with urokinase(P=0.683),of whom 66.7%(4/6) with 50 mg Pro-UK,75%(3/4)with 60 mg Pro-UK. The rates of TIMI grade 2 or 3 were similar for patients treated with Pro-UK versus urokinase(56.25% and 80%,respectively,P=0.399). All safety end points were similar between the two groups. The level of fibrinogen in blood plasma was significantly higher in Pro-UK group than that in urokinase group,indicating that Pro-UK had higher fibrin-specificity.Conclusion The bolus and 30 minutes infusion of Pro-UK 50 mg and 60 mg was clinically safe and effective thrombolytic regimen,but need further study.

Objective To explore the incidence and risk factor of renal artery stenosis in patients with coronary artery disease and essentiality of renal arteriography while performing coronary artery angiography. Methods Renal arteriography was performed immediately after coronary artery angiography in 114 patients with suspected coronary artery disease. Results Incidence of renal artery stenosis was 18.4% (21/114) in 114 patients and 26% (20/77) in patients with coronary artery disease who were identified by coronary artery angiography. Only one case with renal artery stenosis was found in 37 cases whose coronary arteries were normal (2.7%, 1/37). Incidence of renal artery stenosis in patients with coronary artery disease was higher than that in patients with normal coronary artery (26% vs 2.7%, P

Objective:To define impact of spontaneous TIMI-3 flow before angioplasty on outcomes of percutaneous coronary intervention strategy and the prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI ). Methods: The consecutive 301 patients enrolled in the ongoing register of emergent coronary angioplasty within 12 hours from symptoms who were diagnosed as having ST elevation AMI in our hospital from 2000 to 2006 were analyzed, they were followed up for one year and the clinical characteristics and survival rates were analysed. Results: Among the 301 patients enrolled in the ongoing register of emergent coronary angioplasty, spontaneous reperfusion (TIMI-3 flow) was present in 14.6% at initial angiography. Compared with patients without TIMI-3 flow, those with TIMI-3 flow before coronary intervention were less likely to present in new-onset heart failure(2.3% versus 16%, P=0.016), Patients with initial TIMI-3 flow had significantly lower 30-day mortality (0% versus 9.3%, P=0.035) , and cardiogenic shock (0%versus 8.6%, P=0.044) and had a shorter hospital stay (P=0.008). Cumulative 1-year mortality was 0% in patients with initial TIMI-3 flow, 11.3% with TIMI 0-2 flow (P=0.019). By COX regression analysis, postprocendural TIMI-3 flow was an independent determinant of survival (OR=0.285,P=0.004) , however,TIMI-3 flow before coronary intervention was not found as an independent determinant of survival significantly. The lenitive symptoms and current smoking were the independent determinants of TIMI-3 flow before coronary intervention (P=0.005, P=0.048, respectively).Conclusion: Patients undergoing primary percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention in whom TIMI-3 flow is present before angioplasty may present with greater clinical and angiographic evidence of myocardial salvage, be less likely to develop complications related to left ventricular failure, and improve early and late survival.

Objective:
To investigate the value of computed tomography (CT) texture analysis in differential diagnosis of inflammatory and malignant pulmonary nodules.
Methods:
The image data of 54 patients with lung cancer and 36 patients with pulmonary inflammatory nodules were retrospectively collected in our hospital. All the patients received chest CT scan. CT texture analysis of entropy, correlation degree and contrast ratio were performed by the MaZda software. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was established and the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated to evaluate the value of CT texture analysis in differential diagnosis of inflammatory and malignant pulmonary nodules.
Results:
In the lung cancer group, the value of entropy, correlation degree and contrast ratio were 1.58±0.07, 0.02±0.17 and 8.79±2.59, respectively. In the inflammatory nodules group, the value of entropy, correlation degree and contrast ratio were 1.51±0.04, 0.22±0.16 and 12.53±2.24, respectively. The differences were all statistically significant (

Objective To investigate the factors associated with delay in decision to seek treatment in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI) in Beijing. Methods This prospective,cross-sectional,multicenter survey was conducted from November 1,2005 and December 31 ,2006. The participants consisted of 799 patients with STEMI admitted within 24 h of symptom onset to 19 hospitals in Beijing. Data were collected by semi-structured interviews and medical records review. The patients were categorized into an early decision group and the a late decision group based on the 30 min cut-off. Results The median(25%,75%) decision delay in STEMI patients was 60(20, 180)min. Factors associated with late decision in an univariate analysis were age ≥65 years, retirement or unemployment, history of myocardial infarction,symptom onset at home and intermittent symptoms, whereas presence of bystanders such as friends,coworkers or even strangers,unbearable symptoms,dyspnea,sweating,syncope and attribution of symptoms to cardiac origin were related to early decision. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that history of myocardial infarction,absence of syncope, intermittent symptoms,bearable symptoms and attribution of symptoms to noncardiac origin were independent predictors of decision delay>30 min. Patients in the early decision group had more chances to receive acute reperfusion therapies(P=0.001) and shorter time intervals from symptom onset to reperfusion therapies(P<0.001). Conclusions To a great extent patients with AMI in Beijing delayed in decision to seek treatment. History of myocardial infarction, symptom characteristics and symptom attribution were associated with decision delay.
