Objective To examine the incidence and risk factors associated with atrial fibrillation in elderly coronary heart disease patients who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery.Methods From Jun.2008 to Jun.2009,one hundred and eleven patients received OPCAB in our hospital.Clinical data including coronary angiography,diseased vessels,number of bypass grafts,postoperative electrolyte,postoperative hemodynamic measurements,anti-arrhythmic drugs used and other risk factors for atrial fibrillation was collected and reviewed individually.The mean age of patients was(73.19±2.79)years(range from 70 to 82 years).Seventy-nine patients were male and 32 were female.The mean left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)was 0.57±0.12,NYHA Ⅰ-Ⅳ.All patients received OPCAB.Saphenous vein(SV)and left internal mammary artery(LIMA)were harvested and used as grafts.LIMA was routinely anastomosed to the left anterior descending artery (LAD),and SV was anastomosed to the other target vessels.The average number of grafts.was(2.79±0.54)per case.The mean operation time was(3.70±0.88)hours and the duration of ICU-staying was(1.32±0.94)days.The patients were divided into 2 groups:atrial fibrillation group and non-atrial fibrillation group.Results Four deaths occurred perioperatively.The mortality was 3.42%.Major postoperative complications included low cardiac output,respiratory dysfunction and acute kidney injury.Twenty seven out of 111 patients who underwent off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery had atrial fibrillation postoperatively.The incidence was 24.3%.Single factor analysis revealed that CVP,serum levels of potassium,magnesium,and SPO2 were lower significantly in atrial fibrillation group than those in the non-atrial fibrillation group,P<0.05.Conclusion Changes of perioperative electrolytes and circulating blood volume,decline in the oxygen saturation,and the occurrence of perioperative myocardial infarction after coronary artery bypass surgery were the risk factors associated with atrial fibrillation.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinicopathologic features and prognostic factors of Chinese patients with mantle cell lymphoma.
METHODSOne hundred and two cases of mantle cell lymphoma occurring in Chinese patients were studied by light microscopy and immunohistochemistry. The follow-up information was also analyzed. The cases were classified as mantle zone, nodular or diffuse patterns and as typical or blastoid variants. Age, Ann-Arbor staging, B symptoms, hematologic parameters, histologic variants, mitotic index and immunophenotype were assessed for possible prognostic implication.
RESULTSThe median age of the patients was 59 years (range: 30 to 79 years) and the male-to-female ratio was 2.92:1. Seventy-one patients (87.65%) presented with advanced stage disease (Ann Arbor stage III to IV). B symptoms were present in 45.45% of patients. The commonest site of involvement was lymph node (100%). The other involved sites included bone marrow (64.44%), spleen (63.16%), Waldeyer's ring (31.25%), peripheral blood (29.41%), liver (22.64%) and gastrointestinal tract (14.71%). All cases expressed B-cell markers but were negative for T-cell marker. Majority of cases were positive for cyclin D1 (94.12%) and CD5 (71.43%). Blastoid variant accounted for 24.51% of cases. Amongst the 68 cases with follow-up data available, the median survival was 10 months. Parameters associated with shorter survival included diffuse pattern, blastoid variant, high mitotic index, high proliferative activity and presence of bone marrow involvement.
CONCLUSIONSThe clinicopathologic features and prognostic factors of mantle cell lymphoma occurring in Chinese are similar to those in Caucasians. Diffuse pattern, blastoid variant, high mitotic index, high proliferative activity and involvement of bone marrow indicate poor prognosis.

Objective To investigate the perioperative hemodynamic changes of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) patients monitored by pulse recorded analysis method (MostCare/PRAM devices) and its relationship with the prognosis. Methods A total of 89 patients who underwent OPCABG from October 2016 to January 2017 in Beiijng Anzhen Hospital were included, including 53 males and 36 females aged 60.50±8.40 years. The hemodynamic changes were recorded. The patients were divided into two groups (a major adverse cardiovascular events group and a stable group) according to whether major adverse cardiovascular events occurred or not. The difference of hemodynamic changes between the two groups was analysed. Results The mean percentage increases of stroke volume (SV) in the passive leg raising (PLR) test before opening chest and after chest closure were 23.00%±3.20% and 29.40%±3.70%, respectively. Hemodynamic data were analysed seven times, namely, anaesthesia, opening chest, heparin administration, coronary artery bypass grafting, protamine administration, thoracic closure and after operation. SV was significantly decreased during above periods, while systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI) was significantly increased. Cardiac circle efficiency (CCE) and maximum pressure gradient (dP/dT) were decreased after anaesthesia, and decreased to the lowest value during the procedure of bypass grafting, and then they began to increase gradually after the manipulation of bypass grafting was finished. Stroke volume variation (SVV) and pulse pressure variation (PPV) were slightly decreased during anaesthesia, then increased significantly through the whole surgery. Major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in 9 patients and 4 of them died. The basic mean values of SVRI, SVV and PPV of patients in the major adverse cardiovascular events group before opening chest were significantly higher than those of patients in the stable group. There was no significant difference in the mean values of CCE, dP/dT or SV between the two groups. There was no significant correlation between the prognosis and the mean values of SVRI, SVV, PPV, CCE, dP/dT or SV. Conclusion The hemodynamic indexes are not stable, thus, it is necessary to monitor the perioperative hemodynamic changes of OPCABG patients timely by MostCare/PRAM device and adjust treatment measures accordingly.
