Aim To analyze the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events(MACCE)in patients with different types of acute coronary syndrome(ACS)undergoing coronary artery rotational atherec-tomy(RA)within two years.Methods 268 patients with ACS who underwent RA in the Department of Cardiology,Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital,Affiliated Hospital of Medical School of Nanjing University,between November 2011 and December 2022 were retrospectively included.According to whether ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)occurred,they were divided into 25 cases in the ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)group and 243 cases in the non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome(NSTE-ACS)group.The NSTE-ACS group included unstable angina pectoris(UAP)and non-STEMI(NSTEMI).The basic information and intraoperative data related to percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in the two groups were collected,and the occurrence of MACCE(including car-diovascular death,non fatal myocardial infarction,worsening heart failure,ischemic stroke and target vessel revasculariza-tion)within two years after RA was followed up and analyzed.Results Compared with the NSTE-ACS group,the STEMI group had a higher incidence of MACCE and cardiovascular mortality during the two-year follow-up period(10.3％and 0.4％vs.28.0％and 8.0％;P＜0.05).There was no statistical difference between the incidence of target vessel revascularization,nonfatal infarction,ischemic stroke and worsening heart failure between the two groups(P＞0.05).According to subgroup analysis based on enrollment periods,the results showed that over time(2011-2017 compared to 2018-2022),the incidence of MACCE in all patients within two years after RA showed a decreasing trend(18.97％vs.6.58％).Combined with previous studies,gender,hypertension,diabetes,renal insufficiency,smoking and left ven-tricular ejection fraction(LVEF)were included in the Cox regression model.It was found that the use of intravascular ul-trasound(IVUS)was an independent factor to reduce the incidence of MACCE in ACS patients within two years after RA(HR=0.333,95％CI:0.153～0.723,P＜0.01).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that among ACS patients undergoing RA,the cumulative incidence of MACCE events was higher in the STEMI group than that in the NSTE-ACS group(P＜0.05).Conclusion STEMI patients have a higher incidence of MACCE and cardiovascular mortality within two years after RA compared to NSTE-ACS patients,and the use of IVUS during RA surgery can reduce the incidence of MACCE in ACS patients after RA.

Objective It is still controversial how to deal with the congenital heart disease with advanced pulmonary hypertension.The choices of treatment for these patients must depend on the character and degree of pulmonary vascular change.The pulmonary vascular change correlates well with hemodynamics and acute pulmonary vasoreactivity test.Therefore,it will play an important role to obtain accurately these evaluations.Methods This paper studies 85 cases (38 males and 46 females) with congenital heart disease complic ated with advanced pulmonary hypertension and bidirectional shunt,which are diagnosed by echocardiography.Whose age range is (22.8 ± 16.5 ) and weight range (46.4 ± 12.1 ) kg.Among those cases,42 are VSD,11 are ASD,9 are VSD with patent ductus arteriosu,7 are patent ductus arteriosu,5 are ASD with VSD,and 11 are the others.With congenital heart disease complicated with advanced pulmonary hypertension and bidirectional shunt,which are diagnosed by echocardiography.There were floating catheter retention of 4 to 13 days ( average 7.5 days).Through the right subclavian vein or jugular vein,floating catheter is inserted into pulmonary artery.Pulmonary artery pressure is recorded continuously and analyzed.Hemodynamics,acute pulmonary vasoreactivity test and drug sensitivity test are evaluated.Differences of the hemodynamics are analyzed between echocardiography and floating catheter examination.Results Compared with floating catheter examination,there are not significantly difference for the diagnosis of advanced pulmonary hypertension(98.8％ vs.100％,P ＞ 0.05),less accurately diagnosis (64.3％ vs.100％,P ＜ 0.05 ) and higher (H)false positive rate (8.4％ vs.0,P ＜ 0.05) for Eisenmenger syndrome in echocardiography examination.Floating catheter examination shows that mean systolic pulmonary artery pressure(PAP)/mean systolie body artery blood pressure (BP) and mean PAP / mean BP were equal to 1.22 ± 0.35 and 1.07 ± 0.11 respectively.The patients presented total pulmonary vascular resistance of ( 17.6 ± 8.3) Wood units.Bidirectional shunt volume is more than 30％ cardiac outputs in 7 cases.Apart from 14 cases with Eisenmenger syndrome,total pulmonary vascular resistance is ( 11.3 ± 3.7) Wood units.Acute pulmonary vasoreactivity test presents positive in 67 cases.After drug sensitivity test,14 cases with Eisenmenger syndrome underwent medical treatment and waited lung transplantation or heart-lung transplantation.Floating catheter examination happened hematoma(2/85 ) in 2 patients.71 cases underwent surgical treatment.Operative complications included right heart failure (6/71) and pulmonary infection (5/71).Operative mortality was 5.6％ (4/71).The main causes of death were right heart failure.Compared with preoperative arterial oxygen saturation,postoperative arterial oxygen saturation increased by (9.7 ± 4.1 ) ％ ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Floating catheter examination can evaluate accurately pulmonary hypertension,hemodynamics,acute pulmonary vasoreactivity test,drug sensitivity test and bidirectional shunt volume.All the patients,who were diagnosed as advanced pulmonary hypertension with bidirectional shunt by echocardiography,should undergo floating catheterization.Floating catheter examination can provide reliable,objective theoretical basis for the choice of treatment in the congenital heart diseases with advanced pulmonary hypertension.

Objective To explore clinical treatment of postoperative hyponatremia of pituitary tumor. Meth-ods 32 cases of patients with postoperative hyponatremia of pituitary tumor were randomly divided into control group and treatment group. The control group(n = 15) was treated with routine western medicine, and the treatment group(n = 17) was treated with water limited and sodium supplemented based on the control group. The clinical effect was observed between control group and treatment group. Results The clinical effect in the treatment group was signifi-cantly higher than that of the control group(P <0.05). Conclusion The treatment of water limited and sodium sup-plemented on postoperative hyponatremia of pituitary tumor is better.

Objective To research the thickness of adults frontal bones in many parts and analyze the mean-ing. Methods We chose 130 dry skulls of the Chinese people including 70 male skulls and 60 female skulls and ver-tically devided the frontal bones according the devidement of the superciliary arch into 4 parts on average. Then we measured the thickness of the frontal squama,the frontal tuber,the forehead and temple,the superciliary arch,the or-bital surface and the frontal sinus using the ruler, vernier caliper and protractor. Results We got the thickness of the frontal squama,the frontal tuber,the forehead and temple,the superciliary arch,the orbital surface and the frontal si-nus and calculated the average datas. What's more,besides the thickness of the frontal tuber,forehead and temple,the superciliary arch had statistical significance(P < 0.05) between males and females, other parts of the frontal bones had no statistical significance(P>0. 05). Conclusion We measured the thickness of the frontal squama,the frontal tu-ber,the forehead and temple,the superciliary arch,the orbital surface and the frontal sinus and the datas will had good guiding roles to our department's work.
