Clinical Medicine of China 2011;27(4):374-377
Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of trimetazidine in short-term treatment for dilated cardiomyopathy accompanied by heart failure. Methods Sixty seven cases of dilated cardiomyopathy patients with heart failure were recruited and divided into two groups randomly,the control group(n = 33) had conventional therapy and the treatment group (n = 34) had conventional therapy plus oral tid 20 mg trimetazidine administration for 3 months. Results The heart function improved significantly in both groups. The overall effective rate was significantly lower in the control group than the treatment group(69. 7% vs. 88.2%,P < 0. 05). In the treatment group, before treating the left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF), stroke volume (SV), cardiac output per minute (CO), 6 min walk test(6-MWT), were(28.7 ± 13. 6) %,(31.0 ± 8. 7) ml,(3. 10 ± 0. 49) L/min,(138.0 ± 30. 4) m respectively, and after treazing these indices were(38. 5 ± 9. 7) %,(48. 5 ± 6. 8) ml, (4. 90 ± 0. 98) L/min,(350. 0 ± 20. 4) m respectively, which increased significantly after treatment(Ps <0. 05). However,in the treatment group ,before treatment left ventricular. End-systolic dimension (LVESD), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were (68. 0 ± 8. 0)mm,(70. 0 ± 7. 8) mm,(669. 0 ± 71.4) μg/L respectively, whereas after treatment these indices were(59. 0 ± 6. 7) mm,(68.0 ± 7. 9) μg/L,(340. 0 ± 56. 0) μg/L respectively, which decreased significantly after treatment(Ps < 0. 05). In the control group, before treatment LVEF, SV, CO, 6-M WT were(28. 5 ±13.9) %,(30. 0 ± 9. 9) ml,(3.00 ± 0. 48) L/min,(130. 0 ± 28. 6) m respectively, whereas after treating these indices were(34. 0 ± 8. 5) %,(34. 0±11.0) ml,(3. 90 ± 0. 56) L/min,(254. 0 ± 30. 0) m, respectively,which increased significantly after treatment(Ps < 0. 05). While in the control group, before treatment LVESD,LVEDD and BNP were (67.0 ± 9. 0) mm, (70. 0 ± 8.0) mm,(666. 0 ± 70. 8) μg/L respectively, whereas after treatment these indices were(60. 0 ± 5. 5) mm,(66. 0 ± 5.7) mm,(350. 0 ± 55.3) μg/L respectively, which decreased significantly after treatment (Ps < 0. 05). Moreever, the improvement of these indices in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in the control group (Ps < 0. 05). Conclusion The additional administration of trimetazidine to conventional anti-failure treatment can significantly improve the heart function in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy,which is worth to be generalized clinically.

Objective To analyze rick factors for postoperative recurrence of spontaneous pneumothorax surgery. Methods The clinic characteristics of 1128 patients who received spontaneous pneumothorax surgery in Tianjin Chest Hospital were collected from January 2009 to March 2015. The relationship between clinic characteristics and the pulmonary bullae was analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess factors affecting the postoperative relapse of spontaneous pneumothorax. Results The pulmonary bullae were found in 877 patients of 1128 during the operation. The incidence of pulmonary bullae was significantly high in patients with age below 25 years compared with patients over 25 years (P<0.05). The duration of surgery was significantly longer in patients with pulmonary bullae compared with that of patients without pulmonary bullae (P<0.05). Postoperative recurrence occurred in 21 cases, with a recurrence rate of 1.86%. Logistic regression analysis showed that pulmonary bullae, pleurodesis without pleura friction, delayed drainage duration (> 3 d) were independent risk factors of postoperative recurrence for spontaneous pneumothorax (P<0.05). Conclusion Pulmonary bullae, pleurodesis without pleura friction and delayed drainage duration are risk factors of postoperative recurrence for spontaneous pneumothorax, which should be paid more attention in clinic.

Objective Compare the analgesia effects of using different intervention method among neonatal infants, and then find out the most effective method. Methods Divided 120 neonatal infants into the control group, the NNS group and the position group, there were 40 cases in every group. Using the N-PASS scale evaluated the pain degree at the points of 1 and 5 minutes respectively after stimulation among the 3 groups. Results There was significant difference between the 3 groups on the pain degree,P

Objective To compare the efficacy of arterial stenting with that of traditional B -T shunt for neo-natal pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum.Methods Twenty -six cases of neonatal pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum were treated at Children′s Hospital of Zhengzhou from December 2005 to December 201 5,aged 3 to 23 days[(8.20 ±4.80)days],and weighted 2.80 -3.88 (3.41 ±0.27)kg.Accompanied with pulmonary hypo-plasia,all these patients were combined with PDA and ASD or PFO.Before operation,the peripheral oxygen saturation was kept in 61 % -75%,averaged at 67%.Among them,1 2 cases underwent arterial catheter stenting,and 1 4 cases re-ceived B -T shunt (including modified B -T shunt and central shunt)ductus ligation.After operation,the oxygen satu-ration in these children was observed,and they were examined by echocardiography and true lateral chest X -ray,blood flow situations in stents and shunts were assessed,and follow -up examinations were conducted in 1 ,3,6 and 1 2 months postoperatively.Results Stents were successfully inserted into these 1 2 cases.After traditional pulmonary shunt,pa-tients′peripheral oxygen saturation was (82.73 ±5.59)%,compared with that of patients after arterial catheter sten-ting (86.1 8 ±3.1 9)%,there was significant difference(t =1 0.71 ,P <0.05).In pulmonary shunt group,2 cases died,1 case died of postoperative heart failure,and the other case was complicated with pulmonary infection and died of respiratory failure;in catheter stent group,1 case was complicated with postoperative supraventricular tachycardia and recovered after drug intervention.For the follow -up examinations 1 ,3,6 and 1 2 months after the operation,1 case of B -T shunt in pulmonary shunt group was improved by central shunt due to slow blood flow,less shunt volume,and ox-ygen saturation decreased to 69%.For the catheter stent group,1 case was improved by stent balloon dilatation due to declined peripheral oxygen saturation 2 months postoperatively,and after the operation,transcutaneous oxygen saturation was improved.No patients died in the catheter stent group.Conclusions In traditional B -T shunts,the operation is extensive,and complications are common,and the recovery turns slowly.Arterial catheter stenting can be used as the preferred method of treatment for one -stage surgical pulmonary atresia with intact ventricular septum to reduce the weakness feasibly and effectively.
