Objective To investigate the feasibility, safety and impact on performance indicators of coronary angio graphy, percutaneous coronary intervention and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in day care ward of heart center. Methods 128 patients performing coronary angiography and receiving stent implantation or coronary artery bypass surgery when necessary from October 2014 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The success rate of procedure, intraoperative and postoperative adverse cardiac events (death, myocardial infarction and interventional complications: coronary artery spasm, dissection, perforation and occlusion, contrast agent allergy, upper extremity edema, patients with osteofascial compartment syndrome and radial artery occlusion), average hospitalization days and medical expenses were compared with patients at the same period in general ward. Results Seventy-six cases underwent coronary angiography, among whom 35 cases received stent implantation and 17 cases received coronary artery bypass grafting. The success rate was 100%. Adverse events were radial artery spasm in 5 cases, puncture site hematoma in 3 cases and contrast agent allergy in 1 case. Day care ward significantly shortened the average hospitalization days (P<0.05); there was a downward trend, although there was no statistical difference in hospitalization expenses (P>0.05). Conclusions Coronary angiography and revascularization at the day care ward model is safe and feasible in the heart center if diagnostic and therapeutic techniques are mature.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of antiplatelet therapy of ticagrelor on patients suffering from acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing primary percutaneous coronary in-tervention. Methods:In the study, 96 patients suffering from acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction onset within 12 h undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention from May to October in 2013 were randomly divided into ticagrelor group (n=48) and clopidogrel group (n=48) by using the method of random number table. Ticagrelor and clopidogrel antiplatelet treatment were used before and after operation. Their baseline data, coronary artery disease characteristics, platelet count, adenosine diphosphate(ADP)-induced platelet inhibition rate by thrombelastograph after 5 days of treatment, the major adverse cardiovascular events of the follow up for 6 months and bleeding complications were observed and compared in the two groups. Re-sults:The differences between the two groups of patients with their baseline data, the features of coronary ar-tery lesions, platelet count before and after 5 days of treatment had no statistical significance (P>0. 05). ADP induced platelet inhibition rate [(80. 2 ± 10. 7)%] after 5 days of treatment in ticagrelor group was sig-nificantly higher than that in clopidogrel group [(75. 3 ± 12. 1)%, P<0. 05]. The two groups of patients were followed up for 6 months, 8 cases of major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in clopidogrel group, 2 ca-ses of major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in ticagrelor group, and there was significant difference between the two groups (P<0. 05). The two groups (7 cases of 48 patients in ticagrelor group vs. 3 cases of 48 patients in clopidogrel group ) had no statistically significant difference in bleeding complications ( P>0. 05). Conclusion: Antiplatelet therapy of ticagrelor on patients suffering from acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction undergoing emergency PCI has good efficacy and safety.

Objective: To observe the effects of ginaton and nitroglycerin injection on expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and cardioprotective mechanism in rabbits with ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Methods : Twenty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into four groups, 5 rabbits being in each group. The model was not replicated in the sham-operated group. Myocardial I/R models were replicated in animals in normal saline, ginatone and nitroglycerin injection groups and were administered with normal saline, ginatone and nitroglycerin injection respectively 0.5 hour before ischemia. Western blot was used to measure HSP70 of ischemia and non-ischemia myocardium and the expression of HSP70 was analyzed semiquantitatively . Serum nitric oxide (NO), malondialdehyde (MDA) contents and total superoxide dismutase (TCD*2SOD) , creatine kinase (CK) activity were measured. Results: HSP70 was less expressed in sham-operated group and more expressed in normal saline group, ginaton group and nitroglycerin injection group. Expression of HSP70 of ischemia and non-ischemia myocardium in normal saline group was 2.5CD*2 and 2.1CD*2fold, in ginaton group 17.6CD*2 and 20.7CD*2fold and in nitroglycerin group 28.1CD*2 and 29.1CD*2fold to that in the shamCD*2operated group, respectively. The activity of TCD*2SOD was lower while MDA and CK levels were higher in the normal saline group than those in the sham-operated group (all P

Objective: To observe the relationship between the dynamic changes of plasma levels of urotensin II (UII) and the stability of coronary atherosclerotic plaque in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Methods: Our research included 2 groups: ACS group,n=135 consecutive patients treated in our hospital from 2013-03 to 2013-08 that including unstable angina pectoris (UAP) sub-group,n=7, non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) sub-group,n=22 and STEMI sub-group,n=106. In addition, there was a Control group,n=48 healthy subjects. Plasma levels of UII, hs-CRP and NT-proBNP were examined and compared among different groups at different time points.
Results: Compared with Control group at immediate admission, ACS group had increased plasma level of UII (39.82 ± 22.28) pg/ml vs (26.88 ± 6.09) pg/ml,P<0.001; UII level in STEMI sub-group was lower than NSTEMI sub-group (37.41 ± 22.74) pg/ml vs (48.07 ± 15.82) pg/ml,t=2.092,P <0.05. In ACS patients, UII had no correlation to hs-CRP (r=0.041, P=0.639) and NT-proBNP (r=0.112,P=0.261) at immediate admission. There were 58 ACS patients finished the 3 months follow-up study and their UII level was increased than immediate admission as (56.52 ± 20.70) pg/ml vs (51.58 ± 18.70) pg/ml,t=-2.366,P<0.05.
Conclusion: Plasma levels of UII have been changing in different type of ACS patients at immediate admission, UII presented decreasing trend from UAP to NSTEMI to STEMI, while it had increasing trend upon stabilized condition; the admission level of UII had no correlation to inflammatory marker hs-CRP and ventricular overload marker NT-proBNP. UII is not only related to the extent of atherosclerosis, but also related to the nature of atherosclerosis or the stability of plaques.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for postoperative cardiovascular events (PCE) after renal transplantation and their impact on transplant kidney function.Methods:The clinical data of 120 patients who underwent kidney transplant at Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2020 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 23 cases occurred PCE (PCE group), and 97 cases did not occur PCE (non-PCE group). The relevant preoperative and postoperative data were recorded. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of PCE in kidney transplant patients.Results:The incidence rate of PCE in kidney transplant patients was 19.17% (23/120). There were no statistical differences in the gender composition, preoperative dyslipidemia rate, preoperative hypertension rate and immunosuppressant use between two groups ( P>0.05); the age, preoperative body mass index>30 kg/m 2 rate, preoperative dialysis time>12 months rate, preoperative diabetes rate, preoperative cardiovascular disease rate, preoperative diabetic nephropathy rate, cadaver kidney transplant rate, postoperative dyslipidemia rate, postoperative serum creatinine >200 μmol/L rate, postoperative new-onset diabetes rate, postoperative delayed failure rate and postoperative acute reaction rate in PCE group were significantly higher than those in non-PCE group, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age, preoperative diabetes, preoperative cardiovascular disease, preoperative diabetic nephropathy, postoperative serum creatinine >200 μmol/L and postoperative acute reaction were independent risk factors of PCE in kidney transplant patients ( OR = 2.40, 3.42, 3.85, 1.98, 2.62 and 2.11; 95% CI 1.67 to 3.58, 1.61 to 7.05, 2.61 to 5.55, 1.05 to 3.85, 1.25 to 4.52 and 1.20 to 4.78; P<0.01 or <0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in serum creatinine 3 months after surgery between two groups ( P>0.05); the serum creatinine 6 and 12 months after surgery in PCE group was significantly higher than that in non-PCE group: (139.58 ± 31.54) μmol/L vs. (105.36 ± 21.05) μmol/L and (198.32 ± 40.12) μmol/L vs. (107.63 ± 24.64) μmol/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The incidence of PCE in kidney transplant patients is higher, and there are many risk factors for PCE. If relevant measures are taken to correct or remove risk factors, it may reduce the incidence of PCE and prolong survival time in kidney transplant patients.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and gestational hypertension using two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis.Methods:The summary level data for BMI and gestational hypertension were obtained from the genome-wide association study (the deadline for data inclusion was October 31, 2023). All data were analyzed by inverse variance weighting, MR-Egger regression, weighted median, simple model and weighted model methods. Cochrane Q test was used to evaluate heterogeneity, MR-Egger regression intercept test and funnel plot were used to assess horizontal pleiotropy. Results:Inverse variance weighting result under fixed effects and random effects models showed that the risk of gestational hypertension increased with the increase of BMI ( OR = 1.62 and 1.62, 95% CI 1.39 to 1.88 and 1.39 to 1.88, P<0.01). Sensitivity analysis results including MR-Egger regression, weighted median and weighted model methods showed that BMI increased the risk of gestational hypertension ( OR = 1.51, 1.56 and 1.71; 95% CI 1.01 to 2.26, 1.23 to 1.99 and 1.09 to 2.69; P<0.05 or <0.01). Although Cochrane Q test result showed evidence of heterogeneity ( P = 0.04), inverse variance weighting under a random model suggested that BMI increased the risk of gestational hypertension. Horizontal pleiotropy was not observed in the above analysis ( P = 0.73). Conclusions:Obesity may increase the risk of gestational hypertension. Pregnant women should pay attention to weight control to decrease the risk of gestational hypertension.

Objective:To explore the role of SUMOylaiton of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) in diabetes mellitus prompted inflammation and atherosclerosis in vascular and endothelial cells.Methods:From September 2014 to January 2017, 32 Sprague-Dawley rats in 14 weeks-old were divided into sham operated group, artery injured without diabetes group, artery injured with diabetes group and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme 9 (UBC9) transfection group (Group D) by random digits table method with 8 rats each. Model of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and rat carotid artery balloon injury was made in the assigned group. One rat was excluded because of model failure in each group. Systolic and diastolic common carotid artery diameter and intimal thickness of injured and healthy common carotid artery were evaluated by vascular ultrasound, and the standardized common carotid artery diastolic diameter (sCADD) was calculated. Histological tests and immunohistochemical staining were performed to evaluate intimal hyperplasia, and the ratio of intimal area to media area was calculated when the media area was equal. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were cultured 24 h in high glucose medium with different duration and concentration, and the expression levels of interleukin (IL)-8 and IL-1β mRNA were determined by real time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), the expression level of UBC9 was determined by Western blot method, SUMOylation assay kit was used to evaluate SUMOylation of PPARγ. HUVEC was cultured in vitro and PPAR was stimulated by high glucose at different concentrations and different times PPARγ SUMOylation level. UBC9 was overexpressed by lentivirus in vivo and in vitro, and the PPARγ SUMOylation level was detected.Results:The intimal thickness, intimal area and ratio of intimal area to media area 8 weeks after carotid artery injuring in sham operated group, artery injured without diabetes group and artery injured with diabetes group were increased respectively: (0.026 ± 0.018), (0.084 ± 0.007) and (0.264 ± 0.022) mm; (0.18 ± 0.09) × 10 6, (0.32 ± 0.06) × 10 6 and (1.64 ± 0.22)×10 6 μm 2; 0.345 ± 0.073, 0.570 ± 0.080 and 2.710 ± 0.220, the sCADD was decreased respectively: 0.903 ± 0.084, 0.800 ± 0.071 and 0.330 ± 0.036, and there were statistical differences ( F = 10.40, 9.40, 8.20 and 8.60; P<0.05). After HUVEC was cultured in high glucose for 24 h, the IL-8 mRNA at sugar concentrations of 10, 20 and 40 mmol/L was 1.00 ± 0.11, 3.57 ± 0.22 and 4.07 ± 0.40, the IL-1β mRNA was 1.00 ± 0.07, 3.32 ± 0.29 and 5.13 ± 0.19, and there were statistical differences ( F = 73.05 and 205.80, P<0.05). The level of PPARγ SUMOylation and UBC9 in artery injured with diabetes group were significantly lower than those in artery injured without diabetes group (0.46 ± 0.25 vs. 1.00 ± 0.21 and 0.45 ± 0.02 vs. 1.00 ± 0.07), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05); there was no statistical difference in PPARγ between 2 groups (0.94 ± 0.07 vs. 1.00 ± 0.04, P>0.05). The UBC9 and PPARγ SUMOylation at sugar concentrations of 0, 10, 20 and 40 mmol/L were decreased respectively (0.99 ± 0.05, 0.80 ± 0.06 and 0.62 ± 0.05; 1.00 ± 0.05, 0.57 ± 0.13 and 0.55 ± 0.08), and there were statistical differences ( F = 21.02 and 14.31, P<0.05); there was no statistical difference in PPARγ (1.00 ± 0.03, 0.90 ± 0.04 and 0.91 ± 0.05; F = 3.11, P>0.05). In HUVEC cultured in high glucose medium (20 mmol/L) for 6, 12, 24 and 48 h, the UBC9 and PPARγ SUMOylation were downregulated progressively (1.00 ± 0.09, 0.75 ± 0.05, 0.70 ± 0.08, 0.38 ± 0.04 and 0.35 ± 0.03; 1.00 ± 0.03, 0.86 ± 0.01, 0.59 ± 0.01, 0.51 ± 0.11 and 0.35 ± 0.08), and there were statistical differences ( F = 36.06 and 33.13, P<0.05); but there was no statistical difference in PPARγ (1.00 ± 0.03, 1.14 ± 0.02, 1.18 ± 0.17, 0.98 ± 0.01 and 1.04 ± 0.05; F = 1.90, P>0.05). After overexpression of UBC9 in rats with diabetes, histological analysis showed that UBC9 in artery injured without diabetes group, artery injured with diabetes group and UBC9 transfection group was 1.53 ± 0.18, 1.00 ± 0.22 and 3.62 ± 0.35, there was statistical difference ( F = 5.64, P<0.05). Ultrasonic test results show that in artery injured without diabetes group, artery injured with diabetes group and UBC9 transfection group intimal thickness was increased respectively: (0.077 ± 0.015), (0.216 ± 0.007) and (0.125 ± 0.014) mm, and there was statistical difference ( F = 27.18, P<0.05). Histological analysis showed that intimal area in artery injured without diabetes group, artery injured with diabetes group and UBC9 transfection group was (0.335 ± 0.066) ×10 6, (1.053 ± 0.103) ×10 6 and (0.544 ± 0.040) ×10 6 μm 2, the ratio of intimal area to media area was 0.63 ± 0.063, 2.03 ± 0.052 and 0.93 ± 0.100, there were statistical differences ( F = 13.58 and 53.96, P<0.05). Conclusions:Diabetes mellitus could inhibit the PPARγ SUMOylaiton and prompt inflammation and atherosclerosis in vascular and endothelial cells. Upregulation of PPARγ SUMOylaiton though UBC9 overexpressioncould play a protecting role in diabetes mellitus prompted atherosclerosis.

Objective:To assess the safety and efficiency of left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) combined delayed anticoagulant therapy in atrial fibrillation (AF) patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy.Methods:Using prospective research methods, 35 AF patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy from September 2020 to June 2022 in Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University were selected. All patients were treated with LAAC and delayed anticoagulant therapy. The endpoints were the safety and efficacy of LAAC combined with delayed anticoagulant therapy. The primary endpoint of efficacy was the composite endpoint of postoperative death, myocardial infarction, hemorrhagic stroke and systemic embolism. The safety endpoint was major bleeding as defined by the International Society for Thrombosis and Hemostasis and clinically relevant non-major bleeding.Results:Among 35 patients, 21 were males and 14 were females; the age was (68.5 ± 9.3) years old; the CHA 2DS 2-VASc score was 5 (4, 6) scores; the time to the last stroke was 95 (42, 98) d; the National Institutes of Health stroke scale score at the time of stroke was 3 (1, 6) scores. All patients successfully completed LAAC without perioperative instrument-surface thrombosis, death, new stroke or bleeding events. Thirty-two patients continued oral anticoagulant therapy 45 d after LAAC. The patients were followed up for (12.6 ± 4.3) months, 1 patient experienced recurrent ischemic stroke, 2 patients endured mucosal bleeding, there were no adverse events such as all-cause death, cardiovascular death, systemic embolism and hemorrhagic stroke. Conclusions:The LAAC combined delayed anticoagulant therapy is efficient and safe in patients with AF. For AF patients combined with cardiogenic stroke during anticoagulant therapy, LAAC combined with delayed anticoagulation therapy may be considered to further prevent ischemic stroke events.
