To study the variation and significance of plasma coagulation factor VII (FVII) in different kinds of ischemia heart disease (IHD) and examine its relation with plasma lipid and gene polymorphism. FVIIa was determined with one stage clotting assay by using a recombinant soluble tissue factor (rsTF). FVIIc was measured with one stage clotting assay. FVIIag was quantified with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Polymorphism was analyzed with PCR-urea-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Our results showed that FVIIa in stable angina (SA), unstable angina (UA), obsolete and acute myocardial infraction (OMI, AMI) patients was higher than those of normal group with the differences being significant within any two groups. FVIIag in UA, OMI and AMI was higher than those in SA and normal groups. There were positive correlations between FVIIa and serum triglycerides, FVIIa and FVIIc, FVIIc and FVIIag. FVII-323 0/10 bp polymorphism analysis was performed in 60 patients and 0/10 bp polymorphism was found in 5 cases. FVIIc and FVIIag were much lower in cases of 0/10 bp groups than those in cases of 0/0 bp groups. It is concluded that there was activation of extrinsic coagulation pathway in every kind of IHD to different extent. FVIIa was the risk factor in the development of IHD, and more sensitive in reflecting the severity of cardiovacutar disease than FVIIc or FVIIag. FVIIa was higher in OMI, which may be one of the risk factors of re-infraction. Serum triglyceride may indirectly lead to the development of IHD by increasing the level of FVIIa. FVII-323 0/10 bp polymorphism was present in Chinese patients with IHD and it was correlated with the level of FVIIc, FVIIag in plasma. 10 bp allelomorphic gene was a protective factor against thrombogenesis.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of fiberoptic ductoscopy (FDS) in pathological milky white nipple discharge.Methods The data of 1688 patients with pathological milky white nipple discharge who underwent FDS examination in Chengdu Third People's Hospital from Oct.2011 to Oct.2016 were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among the 1688 cases,the proportion of patients with milky white nipple discharge was 30%,higher than that of the bloody discharge (15%) and yellow liquid (24.5%).The detection rate of lesions in patients with milk nipple discharge was 9.3%,among whom 6.1% was breast cancer.Conclusions FDS should be routinely performed in patients with pathological milky white nipple discharge,as an examination tool to exclude the intra ductal lesion.The disease should be paid more attention by physicians.

Objective To investigate and analyze the impact of gender difference on outcome and prognosis of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in patients treated with primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods This was a prospective and multicentered observation study.All the patients with acute STEMI admitted to the hospitals from June 1st 2009 to June 1st 2010 were continuously recruited.In this study,a unified questionnaire was applied and the 382 patients satisfied the criteria.A unified follow-up questionnaire was used on patients who were discharged from the hospital.Results On average,the female patients were 8 years older than the males.The median “symptom-to-balloon time” was 312.5 minutes in females and 270.0 minutes in males,and it was significantly different (P=0.007).During hospitalization,a higher proportion of female patients developed heart failure,angina and bleeding.No gender differences were found on the in-hospital mortality rates and medical therapy recommended by the guideline.The female patients were more prone to multi-vessel disease than males (P=0.002).Success rates of primary PCI did not show any gender differences.One-month mortality and other cardiovascular events also did not show gender difference when the patients were followed for one month after being discharged.The rates of heart failure and re-hospitalization due to cardiac incidents among female patients were obviously higher than the males,three months after being discharged (P=0.007,respectively).However,the three-month and long-term cardiac mortality did not show differences related to gender.Female patients were associated with higher all-cause mortality than that in males,but there was no statistically significant difference (female 4.2% vs.male 1.6%;P=0.056).Data from multi-factor regression analysis showed that being female was not an independent predictor related to in-hospital mortality or during the follow-up period.Conclusion Being female was not an independent predictor of in-hospital mortality or during follow-up period among patients who were treated with primary PCI.Worse long-term outcome seen in female patients was likely to be explained by older age or longer pre-hospital delayed time.
