Objective: To explore the impact of atrial fibrillation (AF) on clinical outcomes in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Methods: A total of 258 arrhythmia patients who received CRT in our hospital from 2010-01 to 2014-12 were retrospectively enrolled. According to AF occurrence, the patients were divided into 2 groups: AF group,n=42 and Non-AF group,n=216. The end point events were deifned by heart failure (HF) re-admission and all-cause death (including heart transplantation). Survival curve was drawn by Kaplan-Meier method, clinical prognosis was comparedbetween 2 groups with log-rank test and the impact of AF on end point prediction was analyzed by uni- and multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression models. Results: There were 16.3% (42/258) patients combining AF. The following indexes were statistically different between AF group and Non-AF group: patients' age, the ratios of male gender and left bundle branch block (LBBB), eGFR, blood levels of creatinine, uric acid, big endothelin-1, left atrial diameter and application of amiodarone. With the median of 22 months follow-up study, there were 33/258 (12.8%) patients died, 5 (1.9%) received heart transplantation and 72 (27.9%) with HF re-admission. Survival analysisindicated that HF re-admission rate in AF group was higher than Non-AF group (χ2=6.651,P=0.010), all cause mortality was similar between 2 groups (χ2=0.528,P=0.468). Univariate Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis showed that AF, LBBB, higher blood levels of creatinine, big endothelin-1 and large left atrium were the suspiciousrisk factors for HF re-admission; increased blood levels of creatinine, big endothelin-1 and large left atrium were thesuspiciousrisk factors for all cause death. Multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression analysis presented that AF was not the independent risk factor for HF re-admission and all-cause death, while largeleft atrium was the independent risk factor for HF re-admission (HR=1.041, 95% CI 1.007-1.075,P=0.018); large left atrium and increased serum creatinine were the independent risk factors for all cause death (HR=1.045, 95% CI 1.001-1.091,P=0.048) and (HR=1.008, 95% CI 1.001-1.015,P=0.035) respectively. Conclusion: AF was associated with the higher rate of HF re-admission in CRT patients; while no clear evidencesupported that AF was the independent risk factor for HF re-admission and all cause death in CRT patients.

Objective To investigate the value of femoral neck fracture(FNF) typing by digital subtraction angiography(DSA) in prognostic prediction of the fracture healing. Methods From June 2005 to June 2008,45 patients were admitted to our hospital for treatment of single femoral neck fracture.They were 26 males and 19 females,aged from 26 to 60 years(average,45.4 years).Their fractures were all typed according to DSA results.Type Ⅰ ( 15 patients) were DSA pictures which showed 3 to 6 supporting band vascular images crossing the fracture line.Type Ⅱ(14 patients) were DSA pictures which showed one to 2 supporting band vascular images crossing the fracture line.Type Ⅲ(16 patients) were DSA pictures which showed no supporting band vascular images crossing the fracture line.All cases underwent close reduction and internal fixation with cannulated screws under C-arm fluoroscopy.The prognoses of all the patients were evaluated according to their symptoms and imaging examinations in terms of avascular necrosis of femoral head (ANFH) and fracture healing. Results All the patients obtained an average follow-up of 36.7 months (from 24 to 60 months).In patients of DSA type Ⅰ,the ANFH rate and nonunion rate were respectively 0 and 13.3% (2/15).In patients of DSA type Ⅱ,the ANFH rate and nonunion rate were respectively 7.1% (1/14) and7.1%(1/14).In patients of DSA type Ⅲ,the ANFH rate and nonunion rate were respectively 100% (16/16) and 0.The ANFH rate following FNF treatment was negatively related to age and the vascular number showed by DSA.The nonunion ratewas positively related to age but not significantly associated with the vascular number showed by DSA. Conclusion DSA has a significant value in predicting the prognosis for patients with femoral neck fracture.

Objective:Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is an uncommon malignant neoplasm, which mostly originates from the major and minor salivary glands of the head and neck region. This study aims to provide new information on head and neck ACC with cervical lymph node metastasis. Methods:Out of the 616 patients who underwent primary tumor resection from 1995 to 2008 in the authors' hospital, 62 cases with cervical lymph node metastasis were analyzed. Results:The general incidence rate of cervical lymph node me-tastasis in ACC was approximately 10%. The base of the tongue, mobile tongue, and mouth floor were the most frequent sites of lymph node metastasis with incidence rates of 19.2%, 17.6%, and 15.3%, respectively. Most cases exhibited the classictunnel-stylemetastatic pattern of occurrence, and the levelⅠb andⅡregions were the most frequently involved areas. Primary site and lympho-vascular invasions were significantly associated with lymph node metastasis. High patient mortality rate was also significantly correlat-ed with a high number of lymph node positive cases. Conclusion:Cervical lymph node metastasis has a high tendency of occurrence in the tongue-mouth floor complex, following the classictunnel-stylemetastatic pattern. Peritumoral lymphovascular invasion could be taken as a strong predictor for the occurrence of lymph node metastasis, which ultimately leads to poor prognosis of ACC patients. A selective neck dissection should be considered as a management in such patients.

Objective: To create and validate a scoring system for predicting clinical prognosis in patients with cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Methods: A cohort of 367 consecutive patients received CRT in our hospital from 2010-01 to 2015-12 were enrolled. The endpoint follow-up events were all-cause death including heart transplantation and heart failure re-admission. The patients were randomly categorized into 2 groups: Modeling group, to develop HEAL scoring system,n=300 and Veriifcation group, to validate HEAL model,n=67. HEAL system was established by Cox proportional hazards regression model, discrimination between HEAL and EARRN scoring systems was evaluated by AUC of ROC, HEAL calibration was assessed by Hosmer-Lemeshow test and clinical endpoint evaluation by 2 scoring systems were compared by Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Modeling group analysis indicated that hs-CRP (HR=1.137, 95% CI 1.072-1.205,P<0.001), big endothelin-1 (HR=1.934, 95% CI 1.066-3.507,P=0.03), left atrial diameter (HR=1.045, 95% CI 1.007-1.084,P=0.02) and NYHA IV (HR=2.583, 95% CI 1.331-5.013,P=0.005) were the independent risk factors of adverse prognosis in CRT patients. Based on β partial regression coefifcient, HEAL scoring system was established to classify the patient's risk levels: low risk<4, moderate risk 4-10 and high risk>10. AUC for risk classification in Modeling group and Verification group were 0.719(95% CI 0.629-0.809) and 0.708 (95% CI 0.539-0.878), HEAL can well distinguish clinical prognosis in patients at different risk levels (log-rank test showed in Modeling groupP<0.001 and in Veriifcation groupP=0.002); Hosmer-Lemeshow test presented good calibration,P=0.952. All 367 patients were respectively evaluated by HEAL and EARRN scoring systems, HEAL had the better discrimination than EARRN as AUC 0.763 (95% CI 0.692-0.833) vs AUC 0.602 (95% CI 0.517-0.687). Conclusion: HEAL scoring system can effectively predict adverse prognosis in CRT patients, it had the better discrimination than EARRN system and was valuable to distinguish high risk patients in clinical practice.

Background and Objectives:
Preimplantation QRS-T morphology screening (TMS) is a composite tool for selecting subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) candidates. However, its role in predicting the patient's response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is uncertain.
Methods:
A total of 55 consecutive de novo CRT candidates were enrolled between January 2016 and March 2017. Electrocardiogram (ECG) and TMS were performed before and soon after implantation. The ECG parameters were recorded, including QRS duration and morphology (such as ΔQRS_Index, QTc during biventricular pacing mode [BiV pacing QTc], and QRS/T ratio during biventricular pacing mode [BiV pacing QRS/T ratio]). TMS monitored three sensory vectors of the S-ICD. Six months after implantation, the responses to CRT were evaluated.
Results:
Thirty-nine patients (70.9%) passed the TMS during biventricular pacing mode. At the six-month follow-up, the number of responders and super-responders was significantly higher in the passing group than in the non-passing group (responders: 31/39 [79.5%] vs.5/16 [31.3%], p<0.001; super-responders: 9/39 [23.1%] vs. 1/16 [6.3%], p=0.020). The superresponse rate was higher among patients who passed all three vectors than among those who passed 1 or 2 vectors (3 vs. 2 vectors, p=0.018; 3 vs. 1 vector, p=0.003). A smaller left atrial diameter, vectors that passed TMS during biventricular pacing mode, and larger ΔQRS_Index values were independently associated with good CRT response.
Conclusions
Our study demonstrated that patients on CRT who pass the TMS during biventricular pacing mode are more likely to respond and super-respond to CRT.
