Objective To investigate the effectiveness and methodology of percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation (PTSMA). for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). Methods PTSMA with Sigwart's Method were performed in 57 patients with symptomatic HOCM from September 1999 to January 2005. Improvements were made about pressure monitoring, echocardiography guiding, the ablation procedure and the evaluation criteria of the operation. Results About 0.6-9.0 mL of absolute alcohol were consumed during PTSMA in each patient with 1-5 target septal branchs ablated per case. The resting and provoked left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient monitored by catheter was reduced over 50% compared with preoperation level in all 57 cases. Two out of four cases with ECT exam had septal myocardial radioactive absence. During the follow-up of 2 weeks to 5 years, the clinical symptoms such as syncope, diziness, angina, palpitation and dyspnea, disappeared or were relieved in 54 cases compared with preoperation status. Two cases regained the above symptoms not long after the operation. One patient showed improvement in clinical symptoms and echocardiographic examination in 6 monthes, but she died of dilated congestive cardiomyopathy at 18 monthes after PTSMA. Follow-up echocardiographic examination was completed in 43 cases at 6 monthes and in 34 cases at 12 monthes after PTSMA. Further improvement was shown on UCG compared with 2 weeks after the operation. Some patients had transient or nonsustained ventricular tachycardia and atrioventricular block. Anteroseptal myocardial infarction was observed in 4 patients and 1 of them was accompanied by inferior myocardial infarction. Conclusion Percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy is safe and effective. Improvements have to be made for more satisfactory results of PTSMA.

Objective To evaluate the rationale of lowering the cutoff value of impaired fasting glucose(IFG)by studying the extent and severity of angiographic coronary artery disease(CAD)and the cardiovascular risk factors in subjects with different fasting plasma glucose(FPG)levels. Methods A total of 911 consecutive patients who had undergone coronary angiography were selected according to inclusion criteria. The subjects were studied in view of the extent and severity of angiographic CAD and the cardiovascular risk factors with different FPG levels. Results (1) Compared with the group of FPG<5.6mmol/L, the numbers of diseased vessels in the group with FPG 5.6-6.0mmol/L were significantly increased(P<0.05)after adjustment of age, sex and other influencing factors; the group with FPG 6.1-6.9mmol/L had both raised number of diseased vessels and the CAD Gensini cumulative index(P<0.01). (2) The prevalences of overweight, hypertension, hypertriglyceridemia, metabolic syndrome were progressively increasing with graded FPG levels. The prevalence of hypertriglyceridemia was significantly increased with FPG level at 5.0-5.6mmol/L(P<0.05),and the prevalences of metabolic syndrome and other components were significantly elevated with FPG level at 5.6-6.0mmol/L(P<0.05). Conclusion (1) The extent and severity of angiographic CAD were increased with increased FPG even in prediabetic period. The risk of angiographic CAD became increased significantly with FPG at 5.6-6.0mmol/L level. (2) The cardiovascular disease(CVD)risk was also increased with increasing FPG even in prediabetic period. The phenomenon of clustering of CVD risk factors was found at FPG 5.6mmol/L.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the prevalence, clinical feature and levels of protein carbonyl (PCO) in serum of type 2 diabetes mellitus combining obstrucitive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAHS). METHOD: Two hundred and three patients with type 2 diabetes were taken multi lead sleep detection and their AHI, age, height, body mass index (BMI),waistline, duration of diabetes, fast blood glucose, HbA1c level and level of PCO in serum were recorded. RESULT: The prevalence of OSAHS was 79.2% in 203 patients, serious apnea 30.4%, moderate apnea 45.4%, mild apnea 24.2%. BMI, waistline, fast blood glucose, HbA1c level and level of PCO in serum were higher in patients complicated with OSAHS (P < 0.01). HbA1c was independently and positively correlated with patients with OSAHS risk (P < 0.05, OR 6.11). The independent correlation factors of AHI included HbA1c level,BMI, waistline, duration of diabetes and level of PCO in serum,with HbA1c as the predominant factor (P < 0.05).
