Objective To explore clinical application value of fetal heart quantification(HQ)technology in evaluating morphology and function of fetal heart in gestational hypertension pregnancy patients.Methods A total of 85 women with gestational hypertension(GH)during gestational age of 20-40 weeks from March 2020 to March 2024 had been selected as experimental group.According to blood pressure,urine protein,and symptoms of pregnant women,experimental group was divided into GH group(n=35),mild preeclampsia(MPE)group(n=28),and severe preeclampsia(SPE)group(n=22).Additionally,150 normal pregnant women with matched gestational age were randomly selected as control group.Fetal HQ technique was adopted to obtain cardiac morphological and functional indicators of groups,and statistical analysis was conducted.Results There was statistically significant difference in global spherical index(GSI)in each group(P＜0.05).Patients in SPE group had rounder fetal hearts.Bariance analysis was performed on fractional area change(FAC),Tei index,and global longitudinal strain(GLS)for each group of patients.There were statistically significant differences in right ventricular GLS and right ventricular Tei index(P＜0.05).The absolute value of right ventricular GLS in SPE group and MPE group was lower than that in control group,while right ventricular Tei index in SPE group was higher than that in control group.Conclusion Fetal HQ technique provides quick and easy quantitative assessment of fetal heart shape and function.Gestational hypertension not only changes the fetal heart morphology,but also affects the fetal heart function,and the fetal right heart system is more affected than the fetal left heart.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic efficacy of multimodal echocardiography on right heart function in patients with pulmonary hypertension.Methods A total of 80 patients with pulmonary hypertension treated in Jinhua Municipal Center Hospital from January 2022 to August 2023 were selected into observation group,and they were divided into mild group[40-50mmHg(1mmHg=0.133kPa),36 cases],moderate group(51-70mmHg,20 cases)and severe group(>70mmHg,24 cases)according to their pulmonary artery systolic blood pressure.A total of 80 healthy subjects were included in control group.All subjects underwent multimodal echocardiography.The diagnostic efficacy of multimodal echocardiography on right ventricular systolic function in patients with pulmonary hypertension was evaluated by comparing the data of subjects.Results Right ventricular end diastolic volume(RVEDV),right ventricular end systolic volume(RVESV),right ventricular global waste work(RVGWW)in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group,while right ventricular stroke volume(RVSV),right ventrical ejection fraction(RVEF),tricuspid annular plane systolic excusion(TAPSE),global longitudinal strain(GLS),right ventricular global work efficiency(RVGWE),right ventricular global work index(RVGWI),right ventricular global constructive work(RVGCW)were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).RVEDV,RVESV and RVGWW in severe group were significantly higher than those in moderate and mild groups,while RVSV,RVEF,RVGWE,RVGWI and RVGCW were significantly lower than those in moderate and mild groups(P<0.05).The area under the curve of TAPSE,GLS,RVSV,RVEF and RVGWI in combined diagnosis of right heart function in patients with pulmonary hypertension was 0.911,the sensitivity was 92.23%and the specificity was 96.45%.Conclusion Multimodal echocardiography can effectively evaluate right ventricular systolic function in patients with pulmonary hypertension and is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To study the evaluation of left ventricular myocardial function in patients with chronic renal failure by cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking technique.Methods:Thirty patients with chronic renal failure (chronic renal failure group) who were treated in Jinhua Central Hospital of Zhejiang Province from June 2018 to June 2019 and 30 adult volunteers (healthy control group) who were examined at the same period were enrolled. The cardiac movie sequence was obtained by using Phillips Acheva 3.0 T CMR imaging equipment. The tissue tracking tool in CVI42 software was used to analyze the myocardial strain of the subjects, and the levels of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), end diastolic volume (EDV), end systolic volume (ESV), apoptotic volume (AV), global longitudinal strain (GL), global circumferential strain (GC) and global radial strain (GR) were detected and compared between two groups.Results:The level of EDV in chronic renal failure group was higher than that in healthy control group: (132.3 ± 18.5) ml vs. (111.5 ± 15.1) ml, the level of LVEF in chronic renal failure group was lower than that in healthy control group: (62.41 ± 2.10)% vs. (67.30 ± 3.92)%, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). The levels of GL, GC and GR in chronic renal failure group were lower than those in healthy control group: (-16.3 ± 3.1)% vs. (-11.1 ± 4.1)%,(-17.5 ± 2.9)% vs. (-13.7 ± 4.7)% and (36.5 ± 9.5)% vs. (46.3 ± 8.4)%, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). When b = 300, 500 and 800 s/mm 2, the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value of different clinical stages in healthy control group and chronic renal failure group were compared, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). When the clinical stage of chronic renal failure was higher, its ADC value was lower gradually. Conclusions:Cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking technology can accurately and effectively evaluate the changes of left ventricular myocardial function in patients with chronic renal failure.
