Objective To explore the relationship between preoperative plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and recurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) after cardiac valve replacement (CVR) combined with radiofrequency ablation.Methods Fifty-eight patients with AF undergoing CVR combined with radiofrequency modified Maze procedure were enrolled in this study.The patients were allocated to either AF recurrence group (AF group,18 cases) or AF no recurrence group (SR group,40 cases) according to whether patient's AF recurrence or not within 3 months after surgery.NT-proBNP were respectively measured in two groups in 1st day before operation and 9th day after operation by radioimmunoassay.Results All the 58 patients were involved in the final analysis.NT-proBNP levels in 1st day before operation and 9th day after operation in AF group was significantly higher than that in SR group (2061.30 ng/L vs.579.00 ng/L,996.60 ng/L vs.209.20 ng/L,P＜ 0.01 ).NT-proBNP levels in 1st day before operation in two groups was significantly higher than that in 9th day after operation (P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusions There is a good relationship between preoperative plasma NT-proBNP levels and recurrence of AF.It has a clinical value in predicting of recurrence AF after CVR combined with radiofrequency modified Maze procedure.

Objective To develop a sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method for the determination of forsklin in rat plasma.Methods After extraction with methyl tert-butyl ether,chromatographic separation was performed on a C18 column with the mobile phase consisting of water ( 0.1％ formic acid)-acetonitrile in a gradient elution mode.A tandem mass spectrometer equipped with electrospray ionization (ESI) source was used as detector in the positive ion mode.Quantification was performed using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) with the precursor product combination ions of m/z 411→375.3 and 285→193 for forsklin and diazepam.Results Good linearity was obtained in the 0.5-1000 ng/ml range for the analyte and the analytical method was validated in terms of specificity,precision,accuracy,recovery,stability and matrix effect.These assays gave RSD values always lower than 14.4％ and RE values between -3.5 ％ and 3.8％.In addition,the specificity,extraction recovery,stability and matrix effect were satisfactory.Conclusion Due to its high sensitivity,specificity and simplicity,the method could be used for pharmacokinetic studies of forsklin.

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of intravenous leiomyomatosis involving the heart.Methods:From March 2009 to December 2018, 5 patients with intravenous leiomyomatosis with cardiac involvement were collected from The First Hospital of Lanzhou University.All patients were admitted to the hospital as space occupying lesions of right atrium.The relevant data such as echocardiography, CT and MRI were recorded.The preoperative diagnosis, surgical methods and therapeutic effect of the patients were analyzed and summarized.Results:All the 5 patients were female with an average age of (45.8±2.2) years old.Their clinical manifestations were chest tightness and shortness of breath.Three patients had a history of giant hysteromyoma.Echocardiography was performed in all patients, and 3 of them obviously extended to the inferior chamber.Cardiopulmonary bypass was established and thoracoabdominal incision was performed, and the tumors were completely resected in 5 patients, and the origin of tumors was consistent with the result of MRI in 3 cases.The tumor originated from the right uterine vein in 3 cases, and 2 cases originated from the right ovarian vein and was intubated in the femoral vein.The operation was smooth and the postoperative recovery was good.All patients were discharged smoothly.No tumor recurrence was found in pelvic cavity, inferior vena cava and heart after 1 year follow-up.Conclusion:Venous leiomyomatosis involving the heart is rare and easy to be misdiagnosed.Most of them are diagnosed as right atrial space occupying lesions.The diagnosis can be improved by echocardiography, CT and MRI before operation.The operation mode should be adjusted according to the intraoperative findings and different origins, and the tumor should be completely removed as far as possible, and combined with gynecology consultation if necessary.The short-term follow-up showed good prognosis.

Objective:To understand the distribution characteristics of pulse oxygen saturation (SpO 2) in the high altitude areas. Methods:From September 2016 to December 2017, all healthy and full-term live births in the First Hospital of Lanzhou University and Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Jingning and Lintao branches were selected as the research objects.Critical congenital heart disease or pulmonary diseases were excluded in advance.SpO 2 in different parts of newborns within 12 hours of birth was measured.Statistical comparisons of SpO 2 in different parts of male and female neonates in the same area and SpO 2 in different parts of different regions were made.The number of SpO 2 and the distribution of percentile difference between the lower limbs and the right upper limb of newborns at different altitude areas were obtained. Results:There were no significant difference between male and female infants in SpO 2 value at any lo-wer extremity and right upper extremity and the difference value in the same area (all P>0.05). There were significant differences in the median ( M) values of SpO 2 and the M value of the difference between the two values of any lower limb and right upper limb at different altitudes (all P<0.05). The results showed that the M value of SpO 2 of the right upper limb ( M=96%) in Lanzhou (1 520 m above sea level) was lower than that in Dunhuang (1 138 m above sea level, M=97%) and Jiuquan (1 481 m above sea level, M=97%), and the M value of the difference between the two values ( M=2%) was higher than that in Dunhuang and Jiuquan ( M=1%) ( P<0.05). The M of SpO 2 of any lower limb ( M=96%) and right upper limb ( M=96%) in Jingning areas (1 668 m above sea level) were lower than that in Dunhuang and Jiuquan area (all P<0.05). The median value of SpO 2 of any lower limb ( M=96%) and right upper limb ( M=96%) in Lintao area (1 883 m above sea level) was lower than that in Dunhuang and Jiuquan areas, and the M value of the difference between the two values ( M=2%) was higher than that in Dunhuang and Jiuquan (all P< 0.05). When the altitude was lower than 1 500 m, the M value of SpO 2 was 97%, P3- P97 was 93%-100%; the M value of the difference between any lower limb and right upper limb was 1, and P3- P97 was 0-4.When the altitude was higher than 1 500 m, the M value of SpO 2 was 95%-96%, P3- P97 was 89%-100%; the M value of SpO 2 of an lower limb and right upper limb was 1%-2%, and P3- P97 was 0-9%. Conclusions:The SpO 2 number and percentage distribution of the difference between any lower limb and right upper limb of newborns at different altitudes are different.

【Objective】 To establish a method for detecting human immunoglobulin Fc function based on surface plasmon resonance technology. 【Methods】 Based on the characteristic that FcγRI can be binded to the Fc segment of IgG, the affinity constant of the sample was detected by surface plasmon resonance, and its Fc function was the KD ratio of the sample to the standard. The method was validated for specificity/specificity, precision and robustness. The method and the pharmacopoeia method were used to detect the Fc function of 30 human immunoglobulins, and the correlation and consistency of the detection results were analyzed. 【Results】 The method validation results showed that this method has strong specificity/specificity (t values were 0.15, 0.22, both P>0.05), good precision (CV value 5.37%~10.69%) and good robustness (CV value 10.06%). The detection results of this method and the pharmacopoeia method have high correlation (r=0.96, P<0.05) and high consistency (Bias-2.060, 95% Limits of Agreement-5.628~1.508). 【Conclusion】 A method for detecting human immunoglobulin Fc function based on surface plasmon resonance has been successfully established.
