Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of ST segment elevation in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) occurred in patients after resuscitation.Methods The relevant articles about coronary angiography performed in an emergency for all the post-resuscitation patients without obvious noncardiac cause,regardless of the representation of the electrocardiography were searched in the databases of Pubmed,Ovid medline,EBSCO,CBM,Wanfang and VIP of Chongqing.The meta-analysis was carried out with the data from the included articles using the meta-disc 1.4 software.Results Five articles about retrospective analysis of consecutive patients were included.The meta-analysis of pooled statistics showed the sensitivity 0.59,the specificity 0.86,the positive likelihood ratio (LR) 4.4,the negative LR 0.39,the diagnostic odds ratio (OR) 12.28 and the area under the curve (AUC) 0.85.Conclusions Although the high specificity is in favor of making diagnosis of AMI in post-resuscitation patients,the low sensitivity makes the integrative diagnostic value of using sole ST-segment elevation of ECG relatively low.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of isolated ultrafiltration (IUF) for patients with cardiac insufficiency after acut emyocardial infarction (AMI).Methods The acut emyocardial infarction patients admitted from August 2010 to August 2014 were recruited for study.After primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI),102 patients presented cardiac insufficiency taking the form of hypotension and acute left heart failure.All heart failure patients dealt with routine medications at first,and were then randomly (random number) divided into two groups,group A was routine medication group and group B was isolated ultrafiltration after routine medication group.Data recorded at different intervals in the same group were analyzed by ANOVA.Data recorded from two groups at the same intervals were analyzed by t test.Data of mortality in the two groups were analyzed by x2 test.P value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results Of them,51 patients were treated with routine medication resulting in gradual improvement of cardiac function,but the improvement was slower compared with the isolated ultrafiltration group.Other 51 patients were treated with isolated ultrafiltration,and isolated ultrafiltration was discontinued in 2 patients owing to progressive thrombocytopenia and in another one patient owing to systolic blood pressure below 90 mmHg,with clinical manifestations of organ hypoperfusion,poor peripheral circulation,cool clammy skin and oliguria.In the rest of 48 patients in the isolated ultrafiltration group,vital signs were stable,and heart failure symptoms and serum electrolytes improved significantly (P ＜0.05).After one week of using isolated ultrafiltration,left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) also improved (P ＜ 0.05).The differences in mortality within one month,the mean ICU stay,the mean hospitalized stay,and the rate of recurrent heart failure were significant between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05)Conclusions The isolated ultrafiltration is a relatively safe and effective strategy for patients with cardiac insufficiency and hypotension after acut emyocardial infarction.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological features of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients who are return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) on scene. Methods According to Utstein style,we collected the clinical data of OHCA patients who are ROSC on scene from the pre-hospital on the call of 120 of Henan Provincial People ' s Hospital from January 2012 to December 2016. We analyzed the data by SPSS 20.0 software. Results Among a total of 29 patients were enrolled,9(31.03%)were ROSC ≥ 6h,and 20 (68.97%)were ROSC < 6 h. There were no significant difference in the two groups in patients' age,sex,arrest location,witnessed by bystander,bystander CPR,initial arrest rhythm,etiology,the use of epinephrine. None of patients were survival in the group of ROSC≥6 h. The average length of hospital stay was(44.15 ± 34.16)hours, while the shortest length of hospital stay was 12.08 hours and the longest length of hospital stay was 125.75 hours. The ratio of emergency response time to the return to hospital time were 4.55 min ± 2.46 min vs 6.45 min ± 3.60 min,P=0.014 in all patients. The emergency response time consumes more time. Conclusion The hospitalized survival rate of ROSC patients is low. The occurrence of OHCA needs early prevention. The short-term survival(6 h)is not affected by the patients' basic situation and the first-aid situation.

The directions of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) development are to improve CA patients' survival rate and to decrease the poor prognosis. β-blockers can selectively block the neurotransmitter or receptor agonists. They offer beneficial pharmacological properties and have been widely used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Based on the search result of the domestic and foreign medical databases, the usage of β-blockers including clinical research, animal experiments and clinical work of CPR patients was summarized. Finally, the CPR research progress of β-blockers in recent years was reviewed in the article.

Objective To study the protective role of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) in cardiac insufficiency refractory to diuretic therapy after acute myocardial infarction.Methods A total of 104 acute myocardial infarction patients admitted from march 2012 to march 2016 were recruited.According to their wishes,the patients were divided into two groups,continuous veno-venous hemofiltration combined with routine therapy as experimental group (n =52) and conventional treatment as control group (n =52).Mortality rate within one month,the mean length of ICU stay,the mean length of hospital stay,ventilator usage and urine output volume were documented.Then the difference in BW between pre-and post-treatment was determined for evaluation of fluid retention,and blood plasma C-reactive protein (ΔCRP),interleukin 6 (ΔIL-6),interleukin 8 (ΔIL-8),tumor necrosis factor-α (ΔTNF-α) and left ventricular ejection fraction (ΔLVEF) were measured and calculated.A multiple linear regression model to predict ΔLVEF was established.Data recorded at different intervals in the same group were analyzed by ANOVA.Data of the monitoring biomarkers,the mean length of ICU stay,the mean length of hospital stay of two groups were recorded at the same given intervals were analyzed by t test.Data of mortality rate within one month,drugs and ventilator usage in two groups were analyzed by x2 test.P value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results There were significant differences in mortality rate within one month,the mean length of ICU stay,the mean length of hospital stay,and the duration of ventilator usage between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Total volume of fluid output (urine and ultrafiltration volume) was higher in experiment group than that in control group in 48 hours after the treatment (P ＜ 0.01).The levels of CRP,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α decreased significantly (P ＜ 0.05) in experiment group after treatment but not in control group (P ＞ 0.05) as compared with those before the treatment.BW was decreased and LVEF was increased in both groups after treatment (P ＜ 0.05) compared with those before the treatment.Levels of CRP,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α were lower in experiment group than those in control group after treatment (P ＜ 0.05).BW was meagerly lower and LVEF was meagerly higher in experiment group than those in control group without statistical significance (P ＞ 0.05).However,the degrees of ΔLVEF andΔBW were greater in experiment group than those in control group (P ＜ 0.01).In experiment group,significantly positive correlations were found among ΔBW,ΔCRP,ΔIL-6,ΔIL-8,ΔTNF-α and ΔLVEF (P ＜0.05).Multiple linear regression analyses showed that ΔBW and ΔTNF-α were the independent factors forΔLVEF and ΔBW was the main independent factor for ΔLVEF in control group.ΔLVEF was positively correlated with ΔBW (P＜0.01) but had no correlation with ΔCRP,ΔIL-6,ΔIL-8 and ΔTNF-α (P ＞0.05).Multiple 1inear regression analyses showed that only ΔBW was the independent factor for ΔLVEF.Conclusion CVVH plays protective role in acute myocardial infarction patients with consequent cardiac insufficiency refractory to diuretic therapy by clearance of inflammatory cytokines and removal of retained fluid,and the removal of retained fluid is the most import mechanism to protect heart function.

ObjectiveTo study the effects of perindopril on myocardial energy metabolism and ultrastructural changes in rats with chronic heart failure (CHF) induce by isoproterenol. MethodsTotally 55 male SD rats were randomly (random number) divided into two groups, namely control group (Group C) and CHF model group. The CHF rat models were made by subcutaneous injection of isopreteronol (ISO) in doses of 20 mg · kg-1 · d-1, 10mg · kg-1 · d-1 and 5 mg/kg/d for successive 3 days and then 3 mg· kg-1· d-1 for9 days. Four weeks later, the rats in CHF model group were randomly further divided into two subgroups, namely untreated subgroup (group M ) and perindopril treated subgroup (group P). After treatment for five weeks in average, echocardiography and myocardial pathology examination carried out to assess the cardiac function and structure changes of these rats. The levels of ATP, ADP, AMP, lactic acid (LA) and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ -ATPase (SERCA) activity in myocardium were determined by enzymatic reaction. ResultsCompared with rats in group M, the ejection fraction of left ventricle (EF) and fractional shortening of short axis of left ventricle (FS) of the rats in group P increased by 3.25％ and 7. 33％, respectively. Compared with rats in group C, the myocardial ATP, AMP, TAN (total adenosine) and LA significantly decreased in rats of group M. There were no significant differences in the levels of ADP, AMP, ATP/ADP and TAN between group C and group P (P ＞0. 05). Compared with rats in group M, the myocardial SERCA activity increased by 16. 41％ in rats of group P. The myocardial injury found under microscope and electronic microscope was ameliorated by treatment with peidolapril in rats of group P in comparison with rats of group M. ConclusionsPerindopril can improve myocardial energy metabolism,and lessen the pathological changes of ultrastructure, enhancing the cardiac function of rats with CHF induced by ISO.

Coronaviruses (CoVs) are a group of common viruses that can infect humans and pose a great threat to global public health. Mounting evidence has shown that seven zoonotic CoVs can infect human through cross-species transmission. These continuously occurring yet unpredictable events of CoVs repeatedly crossing species barriers have attracted special attention to CoVs and caused panic worldwide. It is generally believed that the spike (S) protein is the key factor determining the cross-species transmission and the invasion potential of CoVs. This review focused on the new-found coronaviruses with potential cross-species transmission capabilities, and summarized and analyzed the research progress in S protein-mediated viral invasion as well as the potential mechanisms, aiming to provide reference for developing effective prevention and control strategies against potential cross-species transmission of CoVs in the future.

Objective To observe the results and reality of transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TUR-Bt) with upside down loop and plsamakinetic in the prevention of obturator nerve reflex.Methods A total of 211 patients with lumbar anesthesia received TUR-Bt.Firstly,the tumor tower above bladder wall was cut with the traditional way.When intraoperative findings were obturator nerve reflex,or to the obturator nerve mapping area,operation should be changed to superimpulse plasma column electrode vaporization to cut off residual tumor tissue,then after flipping the loop,the residual tumour was resected with upside-down loop from the tumour side wall.Results In 211 cases,192 cases had a little obturator nerve reflex,but the movement of body was not obvious,which did not influence the operation.The serious complication,such as perforation of bladder and injury of nerve and vessel,did not occur.Conclusions The lateral resection of bladder side wall tumour with upside-down loop can effectively avoid strong obturator nerve reflex,which is safe,uncomplicated,and efficacious and it does not increase the additional outlay and hurt.
