Objective: To explore change of heart rate turbulence (HRT) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and its predictive value. Methods: A total of 58 CAD patients were regard as CAD group. The 50 normal persons with negative CAG were regard as normal control group. All subjects received 24h dynamic ECG, CAG and echocardiography examination. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and HRT indexes were compared between two groups. Results: Compared with normal control group, there was significant rise in turbulence onset [TO, (-1.34±1.09)% vs. (2.32±0.60)%] and significant reduction in turbulence slope [TS, (11.14±2.27) ms/RR vs. (3.44±0.60)ms/RR] in CAD group, P<0.01 both; in CAD group, along with coronary artery lesion aggravated (single-, double-, multi-vessel coronary disease), there was significant rise in TO [(1.35±0.52)% vs. (2.56±0.83)% vs. (3.01±1.62)%] and significant reduction in TS [(6.49±1.79) ms/RR vs. (3.33±1.02) ms/RR vs. (1.66±0.30) ms/RR], the difference was significant in two-two comparison among all groups, P<0.05 or <0.01; compared with CAD without cardiac event group, there was significant rise in TO [(1.68±0.61)% vs. (2.24±0.24)%], and significant reduction in TS [(5.87±1.22) ms/RR vs. (1.65±0.23) ms/RR] and LVEF[(66.18±2.64)% vs. (56.36±3.34)%] in CAD with cardiac event group, P<0.01 all. Conclusion: Weakened HRT phenomenon exists in CAD patients. HRT can be treated as an index evaluating severity of CAD patients’ condition and an effective predicting index for recurrent cardiac events in CAD patients.

Objective To investigate the state of oxidative stress in the subjects with different levels of serum uric acid and to explore the cause of endothelial dysfunction induced by hyperuricemia. Methods Male subjects with normal serum uric acid or hyperuricemia were enrolled in this study. According to the levels of serum uric acid,all the partieipante were divided into five groups. Every group consisted of about fifty subjects. Plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) were determined. In the mean time plasma nitric oxide(NO) ,plasminogen activator inhihitor-1(PAI-1), endothelin-1 (ET-1) and other biochemical variables were also determined. Results When the serum uric acid level was more than 380 μmol/L, the levels of plasma MDA,SOD,GSH-Px, PAI-1 and ET-1 became higher, while the level NO became lower(P<0.05). However SOD and GSH-Px became much lower when the serum uric acid level was more than 420 μmol/L. Multivariate stepwise regressive analysis showed that PAI-1 was positively related to MDA,UA,HOMA-IR and TG, but negatively related to SOD and NO(t =-3.64 - 6. 08,P < 0.05). ET-1 was positively related to MDA, UA, HOMA-IR and negatively related to NO, GSH-Px and SOD (t = - 4.75 - 6.35,P < 0.05 ). Conclusions It is indicated that oxidative stress became much obvious when the serum uric acid level was more than 380 μmol/L . Oxidative stress,high serum uric acid level and insulin resistance may result in endothelial dysfunction.
