Objective:Atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia(AVNRT) is a common type of arrhythmia,for which radiofrequency ablation(RFCA) is the first therapeutic option.This study is to investigate the causes of 16 cases of temporary atrioventricular block(AVB) during RFCA and 2 cases of permanent AVB after RFCA in common and refractory AVNRT.Methods: We performed RFCA for 77 AVNRT patients by gradually increasing the ablation time,energy and frequency.Generally we chose the lower zone as the first position of ablation and,if invalid,moved the catheter gradually up to the middle or upper zone.Then we analyzed the correlation of AVB with A/V and H-wave in different positions.Results: The AVB risk was increased with the upward movement of the ablation zone and increase of A/V or H-wave(P 0.05). Conclusion: The method of gradually increasing the ablation time,energy and frequency can prevent temporary from permanent AVB.In the common AVNRT group,the middle and lower zone ablation,the multiple-peak A wave,small A wave and big V wave(A/V ≤ 0.45?0.37) with no H wave or H≤0.003?0.01 mV could significantly decrease the risk of RFCA related AVB,but the risk of AVB remains among the refractory AVNRT patients with CSO abnormality or expansion,even if with ablation in the lower zone.

Objective To evaluate the influence of C-reactive protein (CRP),insulin resistance (IR) and epicardial fat volume (EFV) on the extent of coronary atherosclerosis in patients with different body mass index(BMl).Methods One hundred and three patients with coronary artery disease were involved in current study who underwent 64-slice dual source CT and percutaneous coronary angiography.Measurements of height,weight,waist circumference (WC) were recorded,and BMI was calculated.All patients were divided into obesity group (n =45) and non-obesity group (n =58) based on BMI.EFV were calculated through 64-slice dual source CT.Blood samples were collected for biochemical examination.Gensini score were adopted to quantify the severity of coronary artery stenosis.The relationship between Gensini score and EFV,CRP and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance(HOMA-IR) index were statistical analyzed by SPSS16.0 software.Results The level of CRP,WC,EFV and BMI in obesity group were (11.0 ± 5.8) mg/L,(96.1 ± 7.0) cm,(122.7 ± 43.3) cm3,(27.9 ± 2.9) kg/m2 respectively,significantly higher than those in non-obesity group ((6.5 ± 3.4) mg/L,(86.4 ± 7.6) cm,(92.9 ± 39.5) cm3,(22.4 ± 1.9) kg/m2) and the differences were significant (t =2.24,6.74,3.64,11.74,and P ＜ 0.05).CRP were positively correlated with EFV (r =0.404,0.364,P ＜0.05) in both obesity and non-obesity group,While HOMA-IR were only associated with BMI in obese group(r =0.322,P ＜0.05).Gensini score in non-obesity groups were positively related with EFV and CRP (r =0.358,0.315,P ＜ 0.05),while in obesity groups were positively related with EFV,CRP and HOMA-IR(r =0.348,0.297,0.384; P ＜ 0.05).The associations between Gensini score and CRP were not significant in obesity group after adjusting BMI and WC.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that EFV and diabetes mellitus were independent risk factors of patient Gensini score.Conclusion Coronary atherosclerosis is positively related with EFV and CRP in all patients.While,coronary atherosclerosis is influenced by BMI,WC and HOMA-IR in obese group.EFV is an independent risk factor of coronary atherosclerosis.

Objective Epicardial fat volume ( EFV) was a risk factor for coronary heart disease ( CHD) , but there is little research regarding the relationship of EFV with insulin resistance ( IR) and CHD in patients with metabolic syndrome ( MS) .The aim of the article was to explore the effect of EFV in patients with MS on CHD and IR . Methods Patients with MS treated by percutane-ous coronary angiography ( CAG) in our hospital from February 2013 to August 2013 were recruited in this study .The data of height , weight, waist circumference(WC) and hip circumference(HP) were recorded.EFV were measured by MSCT.Fasting blood samples were collected for blood biochemical test . Results EFV in patients with MS was in positive relation with IR index (IRI)(r=0.335, P<0.001) and CHD (r=0.321, P<0.05), and the correlation still remained when the influences of WC and body mass index (BMI) were excluded.Logistic regression analysis showed that EFV was an independent risk factor for CHD (P<0.05), while linear regression analysis indicated EFV , BMI and LDL-C were the risk factors for IRI .ROC curves analysis proved EFV and BMI had diag-nosis value for IRI, and the areas under curve of EFV were 0.755 and 0.679 (P<0.05) respectively. Conclusion EFV is an in-dependent risk factor for CHD and IRI in patients with MS , and EFV has an advantage over BMI in the diagnosis value of IRI .

Objective Previous studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency is closely related to cardiac remodeling. How?ever, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Moreover, oxidative stress plays an important role on the pathologies of cardiac remodeling. The aim of this study was to explore the influence of VD deficiency on cardiac oxidative stress and the potential sig?nal pathway. Methods The male C57 mice ( 3 weeks old) were randomly divided into three groups: vitamin D deficiency ( VDD ) group ( vitamin D deficiency feed for 10 weeks) , vitamin D deficiency ( VDA) group ( vitamin D sufficiency feed for 10 weeks) and VDD+calcitriol ( CAL) group ( vitamin D deficiency feed for 10 weeks and then vitamin D sufficiency feed and calcitriol treatment for 10 weeks) . Results There were significant differences between the VDD group and the VDA group in the left ventricular end?diastolic diameter and left ventricular mass index (3.82±0.125 mm vs 3.748±0.092 mm, P<0.05) (119.30±8.54 vs 97.60±3.65, P<0.05). The number of myocardial cells stained with 8?OHDG was higher in the VDD group compared with the VDA group ( 65. 4 ± 2. 3 vs 21. 8 ± 1. 6, P<0.05) whereas was lower after calcitriol supplement. Furthermore, the expression of thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP) was sig?nificantly up?regulated and the ratio of p?ASK?1/ASK?1, cytochrome C release, and caspase3 activation were increased in the VDD group . Conclusion VDD can lead to cardiac oxidative injury and the up?regulation of TXNIP and the activation of ASK?1 related apoptotic signal cascade may be involved in this procedure.

Objective:To investigate the couse of 24 cases AVB during RFCA and 5 cases after RFCA in total 94 AVNRT patients. Methods:94 AVNRT patients received RFCA in which time, the energy and power were gradually discussed. The correlation among AVB and both different anatomical positions (upper, middle and lower zone) and A/V, H-value in intraventricular ablation mapping were studied respectively. Results: With the elevation of ablation zone, the AVB risk was also increased. The intraventricular ablation mapping showed that:①Increase of A/V and H-value means higher AVB risk;② Simultaneous increase of A/V and H-value would lead to the most dangerous result. Conclusion:It is of great importance to perform RFCA under such situation:middle and lower zone as ablation positions multiple-peak A wave, A/V(0.1-0.25) and no H or slightest H(≤0.02?0.03)mV are present in intraventricular ablation mapping, which could significantly lower the risk of RFCA-related AVB.

Objective To approach the effect of hyperglycemia on admission on the prognosis in female pa-tients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) during hospital stay. Methods 171 female AMI patients without a history of diabetes mellitus from January 1998 to December 2007 were divided into 3 groups according to the blood glucose level on admission. Group Ⅰ included 69 cases with blood glucose <6. 1 mmol/L,group Ⅱ included 49 cases with blood glucose between 6.1 and 7.8 mmol/L,and group Ⅲ included 53 cases with blood glucose >7.8 mmoL/ L. The basic clinical profile, infarct sites, the incidence rates of the main complications and the mortality of the pa-rhythmia among group Ⅲ ,group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ were significantly different ( the incidence rate of cardiac failure was 30.43% (21/69) ,32.65% (16/49) and 58.49% (31/53), the incidence rate of cardiogenic shock was 5.80% (4/69) ,8.16% (4/49) and 24.53% (13/53) ; the incidence rate of severe arrhythmia was 24.64% (17/69) ,30. 61% (15/49) and 54.72% ( 29/53), respeetivley in group Ⅰ, group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ, P < 0.05 for each). The in-hospital mortality in group Ⅲ (28.30% (15/53) ) was remarkably higher than group Ⅰ ( 13.04% (6/69)) ,with significant difference ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Elevated blood glucose level on admission is associated with s markedly increased risk of cardiac failure,severe arrhythmia,cardiogenic shock and mortality during hospital stay in female patients suffering from AMI.
