OBJECTIVETo investigate NF-kappaB activity and the expression of phosphorylated p38 MAPK protein in lung tissue of acute paraquat poisoned rats and the effect of MT.
METHODSOne hundred and twenty-eight Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into three experimental groups: poisoned group, MT group and control group. On the 1st, the 3rd, the 7th and the 14th day after exposure, levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum were detected, NF-kappaB activity in the lung tissues was assessed by electrophoresis mobility shift assay (EMSA), the expression of the phosphorylated p38 MAPK was evaluated by Western blot method, the lung pathological changes of rats were observed.
RESULTSThe level of malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum increased significantly in poisoned group on the 1st day (4.45 +/- 1.23), the 3rd day (3.77 +/- 1.12) and the 7th day (2.84 +/- 0.96) nmol/ml compared with that in control group (1.36 +/- 0.52) nmol/ml (P < 0.01). There was a significant decrease in MT group on the 1st day (2.68 +/- 0.85), the 3rd day (1.97 +/- 0.74) and the 7th day (1.53 +/- 0.62) nmol/ml compared with poisoned group (P < 0.05). The expression of the phosphorylated p38 MAPK and NF-kappaB activity in lung tissue of poisoned group significantly increased compared with control group (P < 0.01). There was a significant decrease in NF-kappaB activity and expression of the phosphorylated p38 MAPK in the lung tissues in MT group compared with poisoned group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONNF-kappaB and p38 MAPK could play an important role in lung injury of poisoned rats. MT may inhibit the expression of NF-kappaB and phosphorylated p38 MAPK, and therefore might have the therapeutical effect on acute paraquat poisoning.

Objective To collect the kinematics and kinetics functional parameters of healthy human lower limbs during stair ascent and descent, so as to provide data for designing the gait trajectory and selecting the driving components of the exoskeleton walker to achieve the motion of stair climbing. Methods Common staircase as an experimental setup was designed, and the three-dimensional (3D) motion capture system and 3D force plate were used to simultaneously measure the ankle, knee, hip motion information during stair ascent and descent. The movement characteristics of the lower limb during stair climbing was analyzed by SPSS statistical software and Origin graphics software, and the functional parameters during stair ascent and decent were also compared and analyzed. Results The joint angle at the sagittal plane, joint moment variation with gait and activity limits in lower limbs of healthy youth during stair ascent and descent were obtained by the experiment. The ranges of motion in ankle,knee and hip joints during stair ascent were -10.66°-13.26°, 6.85°-88.92°, 1.31°-50.18°,while those during stair descent were -37.42°-27.18°,9.83°-95.53°,8.01°-31.62°.The maximum ankle, knee and hip joint moment during stair ascent and descent were 1.788, 1.121, 0.946 N•m/kg, respectively. Conclusions The gait parameters variation with gait and the joint range of motion in human lower limb were significantly different during stair ascent and descent. Separate design targeting at stair ascent or stair descent is required for gait planning of walking aids, and the selection of driving element should consider the maximum moment in each joint during stair ascent and descent.

The study was aimed to evaluate the adverse effects of PAD (bortezomib + adriamycin + dexamethasone) and VAD (vincristine + adriamycin + dexamethasone) as chemotherapy regimens in multiple myeloma patients. 27 and 30 patients with multiple myeloma (MM) were enrolled in PAD and VAD groups respectively. MM patients accepted 3 - 5 cycles of VAD or PAD regimens. The type, degree and occurrence time of adverse reactions during the treatment were observed. The results showed that the rash was found in two patients only in PAD group, leucocytopenia, thrombocytopenia, peripheral neuropathy, infection, fatigue, nausea, constipation, and adverse effects of cortex hormone (hypertension, glycemia, hypokalemia, hyponatremia and acne) were found in the both two groups. The thrombosis was not observed in both two groups during treatment. Although statistical analysis indicated that only the incidence of thrombocytopenia was higher in PAD group than in VAD group with statistical difference but the incidence of leucocytopenia, peripheral neuropathy and infection in PAD group were higher than those in VAD group. Rash, constipation, peripheral neuropathy could be found in the first course of chemotherapy, while the others mostly emerged after 3 courses of treatment. The main reasons for the patients who's treatment was stopped include infection and intolerable peripheral neuropathy. Although peripheral neuropathy could be found in the two groups, but the chemotherapy was stopped only in 2 patients of PAD group after 3 cycles of treatment. It is concluded that compared with conventional VAD chemotherapy, PAD may improve therapeutic effect, but it may bring more severe toxicities to the patients with multiple myeloma.

BACKGROUNDRecent data have shown that sirolimus-eluting stents (SES) reduced not only the incidences of restenosis but also of target vessel revascularization (TVR). CYPHER and FIREBIRD stents are both widely used SES in China. However, comparative data concerning differences in long-term safety and efficacy regarding CYPHER and FIREBIRD stents in the Chinese population are still not available.
METHODSFrom April 2004 to October 2006, 3979 consecutive patients who underwent successful SES (FIREBIRD 2274; CYPHER 1705) implantation were prospectively enrolled into this study. All enrolled patients were divided into two groups based on stent type. Follow-up data, including death, myocardial infarction (MI), thrombosis, target lesion revascularization (TLR), TVR, and major adverse cardiac events (MACE, the composite of death, MI, and TVR) were obtained at 24 months. Cox's proportional-hazards models were used to assess relative risks of all the outcome measures between the two groups before and after propensity match.
RESULTSUnadjusted clinical outcomes demonstrated higher TVR (hazard ratio (HR) 1.78, 95%CI 1.26 - 2.50) and MACE (HR 1.40, 95%CI 1.08 - 1.82) for patients treated with FIREBIRD SES. After propensity match, the results showed a non-significant trend towards superiority of the CYPHER stent in all the analyzed parameters, however, no significant differences were found for all events at 24 months between FIREBIRD and CYPHER groups, and all thrombosis rates by Academic Research Consortium (ARC) definition were comparable between the two groups.
CONCLUSIONSIn this large, real-world population, the use of domestic FIREBIRD SES in China was associated with nearly the same safety and efficacy versus the imported CYPHER SES. FIREBIRD SES can be taken as an alternative for CYPHER SES in daily practice.

BACKGROUNDAvailable drug-eluting stents (DES) have achieved great success in reducing restenosis rates. Recently, investigators have demonstrated that the durable polymer carrier plays a significant role in DES-related hypersensitive reaction and delays vessel healing. TIVOLI stent is a novel sirolimus-eluting coronary stent with biodegradable coating containing sirolimus and polylactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA) polymer. The present study sought to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the TIVOLI biodegradable-polymer-based sirolimus-eluting stent in treating patients with coronary artery disease.
METHODSA prospective, multicenter clinical trial comparing TIVOLI biodegradable coated sirolimus-eluting stent with ENDEAVOR zotarolimus-eluting stent was conducted in 324 patients (TIVOLI group: 168 patients; ENDEAVOR group: 156 patients) at 12 centers in China to demonstrate the non-inferiority of in-stent late loss with TIVOLI stent compared to ENDEAVOR stent in subjects with a maximum of two de novo native coronary artery lesions (lesion length ≤ 40 mm, reference vessel diameter 2.25-4.00 mm). The primary end point was angiographic in-stent late loss at 8-month. The secondary end points were clinical outcomes at 2 years, including major adverse cardiac events (cardiac death, myocardial infarction, or target-lesion revascularization) and stent thrombosis.
RESULTSAngiographic late lumen loss at 8 months in the TIVOLI group was superior to the ENDEAVOR group (in-stent (0.25 ± 0.33) mm vs. (0.57 ± 0.55) mm, diff (95%CI) -0.23 (-0.32, -0.14), P < 0.0001; in-segment (0.25 ± 0.33) mm vs. (0.42 ± 0.55) mm, diff (95%CI) -0.13 (-0.23, -0.02), P = 0.0083). The rate of in-stent binary restenosis at 8 months was reduced from 8.6% in the ENDEAVOR group to 2.9% in the TIVOLI group (P = 0.0229). Compared to ENDEAVOR stent, TIVOLI stent resulted in a significant reduction in target-lesion revascularization (4.2% vs. 9.6%, P = 0.0495) at 2 years. The two-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE) rate was lower for the TIVOLI group, but not significantly different (6.6% vs. 10.9%, P = 0.1630).
CONCLUSIONSTIVOLI was superior to ENDEAVOR stent with respect to late lumen loss at 8 months, and it yielded both lower rates of angiographic binary restenosis at 8 months and target lesion revascularization (TLR) at 2 years. The MACE rate at 2 years was comparable in both groups.

BACKGROUNDMajor side branch (SB) occlusion is one of the most serious complications during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for bifurcation lesions. We aimed to characterize the incidence and predictors of major SB occlusion during coronary bifurcation intervention.
METHODSWe selected consecutive patients undergoing PCI (using one stent or provisional two stent strategy) for bifurcation lesions with major SB. All clinical characteristics, coronary angiography findings, PCI procedural factors and quantitative coronary angiographic analysis data were collected. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of SB occlusion. SB occlusion after main vessel (MV) stenting was defined as no blood flow or any thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade decrease in SB after MV stenting.
RESULTSAmong all 652 bifurcation lesions, 32 (4.91%) SBs occluded. No blood flow occurred in 18 lesions and TIMI flow grade decreasing occurred in 14 lesions. In multivariate analysis, diameter ratio between MV/SB (odds ratio [OR]: 7.71, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.53-38.85, P = 0.01), bifurcation angle (OR: 1.03, 95% CI: 1.02-1.05, P < 0.01), diameter stenosis of SB before MV stenting (OR: 1.05, 95% CI: 1.03-1.07, P < 0.01), TIMI flow grade of SB before MV stenting (OR: 3.59, 95% CI: 1.48-8.72, P < 0.01) and left ventricular eject fraction (LVEF) (OR: 1.06, 95% CI: 1.02-1.11, P < 0.01) were independent predictors of SB occlusion.
CONCLUSIONSAmong clinical and angiographic findings, diameter ratio between MV/SB, bifurcation angle, diameter stenosis of SB before MV stenting, TIMI flow grade of SB before MV stenting and LVEF were predictive of major SB occlusion after MV stenting.

BACKGROUNDRecent studies have shown that drug eluting stent (DES) implantation improved clinical outcome concerning efficacy compared with bare-metal stent (BMS) implantation, and sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) seemed superior to paclitaxel-eluting stent (PES) in improving the outcomes. Firebird SES is the most widely used SES in China. Long-term comparison of safety and efficacy between Firebird SES and Taxus PES in Chinese population is still not available. The aim of this research was to compare the safety and efficacy at 24 months after the successful implantation of Firebird SES and TAXUS PES in Chinese population.
METHODSFrom April 2004 to October 2006, 3110 consecutive patients who underwent successful DES (Firebird SES 2274; Taxus PES 836) implantation were prospectively enrolled into this study. All enrolled patients were divided into two groups based on stent type. By outpatient clinic visit and telephone interview, we obtained 24-month clinical outcome including death, myocardial infarction (MI), thrombosis, target lesion revascularization (TLR), target vessel revascularization (TVR), and major adverse cardiac events (MACE, the composite of death, MI, and TVR). We used Cox's proportional-hazards models to assess relative risks of all the outcome measures before and after propensity match.
RESULTSUnadjusted clinical outcomes indicated that the patients treated with Firebird SES were associated with lower risk of TLR (HR 0.38, 95%CI 0.26 - 0.54), TVR (HR 0.51, 95%CI 0.38 - 0.68) and MACE (HR 0.53, 95%CI 0.41 - 0.68). The results after propensity match were consistent with that before matching, lower risk of TLR (HR 0.33, 95%CI 0.19 - 0.58), TVR (HR 0.41, 95%CI 0.26 - 0.64), MACE (HR 0.48, 95%CI 0.33 - 0.68) in Firebird group.
CONCLUSIONCompared with Taxus PES, the use of domestic Firebird SES may decrease the risk of TLR, TVR and MACE in daily practice.

OBJECTIVETo explore clinical outcomes of patients undergoing emergent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) following failed percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in the stent era.
METHODSEleven patients who underwent emergent CABG following failed PCI from January, 2002 to December 2010 were enrolled. The in-hospital follow-up included cardiac deaths, Q-wave myocardial infarction, kidney failure, and cerebrovascular events. The clinical end-point of out-hospital follow-up was the major adverse cardiac events including death, myocardial infarction, and target lesion revascularization.
RESULTSThe patients were (61 ± 5) years old. Coronary angiography showed 5 patients had triple vessel lesions. There were 9 target lesions on left anterior descending artery. There were 3 (27.3%) severe calcified, 4 (36.4%) chronic total occlusion, and 4 (36.4%) diffused long lesions. Reasons for emergent CABG were dissection (n = 5, 45.5%), perforation (n = 3, 27.3%), failure to sufficient predilation (n = 1, 9.1%), acute closure (n = 1, 9.1%) and stent loss (n = 1, 9.1%). The average duration of follow-up was (47 ± 33) months. During in-hospital follow-up, there were 1 (9.1%) cardiac death and 2 (18.2%) Q wave myocardial infarction. During follow-up after hospital discharge, 1 patient (9.1%) died of kidney failure, and there was no rehospitalization due to cardiac events.
CONCLUSIONSEmergent CABG after failed PCI often happened in patients with complex coronary lesions. The long term outcome of patients requiring emergent CABG after failed PCI was favorable in this cohort.

OBJECTIVETo assess the clinical outcomes of rotational atherectomy followed by drug-eluting stenting via the transradial approach for the treatment of heavily calcified coronary lesions.
METHODSFrom January 2009 to October 2012, 114 consecutive patients with heavily calcified coronary lesions underwent rotational atherectomy and drug-eluting stents via transradial approach in our hospital were enrolled in this retrospective study. Characteristics of heavily calcified coronary lesions, the success rates of rotational atherectomy and stenting, rates of complication during perioperative treatments, and adverse cardiovascular events during hospitalization and follow up were analyzed.
RESULTSAll 114 patients were successfully treated with rotational atherectomy and drug-eluting stent placement, and totally 120 target lesions of type B or C were treated including 8 left main lesions, 93 left anterior descending and 2 circumflex, 17 right coronary lesions. No-reflow was observed in 7 patients during the procedure, there was one case of entrapped rotablator burr which was successfully retrieved together with guiding catheter without serious complication. During the 6 months (median) follow-up, angina was reported in 11 patients and revascularization was performed in 8 patients due to stent restenosis and intensified medical therapy was applied in 3 patients. There was no acute myocardial infarction and death during follow-up.
CONCLUSIONRotational atherectomy followed by drug-eluting stenting via transradial approach is feasible, effective and safe and the short-term outcome is satisfactory for patients with heavily calcified coronary lesions.

BACKGROUNDDrug-eluting stents (DES) have revolutionized the field of interventional cardiology by dramatically improving clinical and angiographic outcomes. Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are associated with an increased risk of adverse clinical outcomes after a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Available information on the efficacy and safety of DES and bare metal stent (BMS) in diabetic patients remains scarce.
METHODSFrom April 2004 to October 2006, 1565 patients with diabetes, who successfully underwent elective stenting at Fu Wai Hospital in Beijing, China, were enrolled in this study. All enrolled patients were assigned to a drug eluting stent group and a bare metal stent group. We obtained follow-up data: death, myocardial infarction (MI), thrombus, target lesion revascularization (TLR), and target vessel revascularization (TVR) at 30 days and 12 and 24 months, as defined by the Academic Research Consortium (ARC). We calculated and compared all the unadjusted cumulative frequencies of the various adverse events in the two groups. Cox's proportional-hazards models adjusted with the propensity score were used to assess the relative risks of all the outcome measures at 24 months.
RESULTSAt 24 months, all ARC defined stent thrombosis in the two groups were similar; at 30 days, a more definite thrombosis was found in the BES group (0.08% vs 0.81%, P = 0.016). Patients treated with DES showed a significant lower risk of TLR (3.88% vs 10.89%; hazard ratio (HR) 0.159 (95% CI: 0.151-0.444), P < 0.001), TVR (5.48% vs 11.69%; HR 0.383 (95% CI: 0.232-0.633), P < 0.001), and any revascularization (12.47% vs 18.55%; HR 0.555 (95% CI: 0.370-0.831), P = 0.0004) at 24 months. No significant difference was apparent in terms of all-cause mortality, MI, and all-cause mortality/MI.
CONCLUSIONSIn contemporary society's large, diabetic population, the use of DES is associated with long-term significant reductions in the risks of TLR, TVR, and any revascularization. There is no significant difference in all-cause mortality, MI, and thrombosis between DES and BMS in the patients with diabetes at 24-month follow-up.
