Objective To compare the the effect of PCI on short term (3 months) left ventricular diastolic function in the old patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (≥ 65 years old). Methods 40 old AMI patients were divided into PCI group and non-operation group (pure medicine treatment group). The changes of left ventricular diastolic function were observed 3 months after operation which were compared with that before treatment so to define the effect of PCI. The major indexes were LA, LV, LVEF, E/A, and S/D. Results LA and LV in PCI group were not significandy changes but they were increased in non-operation group (P < 0.05). Although the left ventricular diastolic function in both group was continually impaird,it was better in PCI group than in non-operation greup(P <0.05). Conclusion PCI can prolong the progress of left heart remodeling and the excerbation of left ventricular diastolic function in old AMI patients.

Objective: To observe curative effect of radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) and changes of cardiac function and left atrial diameter after operation in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods: A total of 28 AF patients with obvious clinical symptoms and without effective for drug therapy received RFCA in our hospital, their data were retrospectively analyzed.
They received RFCA under guidance of three dimensional electro-anatomic mapping (EAM) system. Changes of cardiac function and left atrial diameter were evaluated by echocardiography and curative effect was evaluated by ambulary blood pressure monitoring before, three and six months after operation. Results: Pulmonary vein isolation rate was 100% in all patients. No severe complication occurred during or after operation. After six-month follow-up, 27 cases(96.4%)did not recur AF among the 28 patients; Compared with before operation, there were significant decrease in left atrial diameter [(37.3±4.8) mm vs. (33.6±4.5) mm] and significant increase in left ventricular ejection fraction [(59.8±8.7) % vs. (64.2±6.8) %] by echocardiography, P<0.05 both. Conclusion: Radiofrequency catheter ablation is safe and effective in treatment of atrial fibrillation, and there are significant improvements in cardiac function and left atrial diameter.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of prophylactic irradiation of internal mammary lymph nodes in patients with breast cancer in this Meta-analysis.Methods:CNKI, Wanfang Medical network, CBM, PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science were searched by computer. The controlled clinical studies comparing whether or not internal mammary lymph node irradiation as an intervention were included and the quality of the included literature was evaluated according to Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). RevMan 5.3 software and Stata 14 software were used for Meta-analysis.Results:A total of 11 original articles were included, and 13 181 patients were included for Meta-analysis. There was no statistically significant difference in the overall survival (OS) between patients with and without internal mammary lymph node irradiation ( P=0.490). The subgroup analysis using the date of treatment and the degree of risk in the enrolled population as criteria showed that 5-year OS was significantly increased after internal mammary area irradiation in high-risk stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ patients (N+ , T 3-T 4 stage) with the date of treatment of after 2000( P=0.003, 0.006). Compared with patients without internal mammary area irradiation, internal mammary irradiation significantly increased the 5-year disease-free survival (DFS)( P<0.001). Conclusion:Under the modern radiotherapy technology, internal mammary lymph node irradiation improves the DFS of patients, and may bring OS benefits to high-risk stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ breast cancer patients (N+ , T 3-T 4 stage).
