Objective To evaluate the feasibility of emergency percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)support in critically ill patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI)and cardiogenic shock(CS).Methods Retrospective analysis of clinical data of AMI combined with CS patients admitted to the department of emergency of the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from December 2018 to December 2021,including gender,age,body mass index(BMI),past history(smoking,coronary heart disease,arrhythmia,diabetes,hypertension,hyperlipidemia,cerebrovascular disease);acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score,highest vasoactive-inotropic score(VIS)within 24 hours of admission,the worst auxiliary examination values within 24 hours after admission:blood lactic acid(Lac),arterial partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),cardiac troponin I(cTnI),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),total bilirubin(TBil),creatinine(Cr),serum potassium,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)],presence of malignant arrhythmia or cardiac arrest during emergency PCI,completion of PCI,and the 30-day prognosis,etc.Patients were divided into an ECMO group and a non-ECMO group based on whether ECMO was applied,to analyze differences in the above indicators between the two groups.Results There were no statistically significant differences between the ECMO group and the non-ECMO group in terms of gender,age,BMI,past history,APACHEⅡ,VIS and the worst auxiliary examination value within 24 hours after admission.The incidence of malignant arrhythmia or cardiac arrest events and 30-day mortality rate during emergency PCI in the ECMO group were significantly lower than those in the non-ECMO group[the incidence of malignant arrhythmia or cardiac arrest during emergency PCI was 17.9％(7/39)vs.45.0％(9/20),and the 30-day mortality was 46.2％(18/39)vs.75.0％(15/20),both P<0.05].The completion rate of PCI in the ECMO group was significantly higher than that in the non-ECMO group[100.0％(39/39)vs.80.0％(16/20),P<0.05].Conclusions For critically ill patients with AMI combined with CS,ECMO support can reduce the risk of malignant arrhythmia or cardiac arrest during emergency PCI,increase the completion rate of PCI,and reduce the 30-day mortality.With the support of the ECMO team,ECMO support emergency PCI is feasible.

Objective:To determine the total and age-specific cut-off values of total prostate specific antigen (tPSA) and the ratio of free PSA divided total PSA (fPSA/tPSA) for screening prostate cancer in China.Methods:Based on the Chinese Colorectal, Breast, Lung, Liver, and Stomach cancer Screening Trial (C-BLAST) and the Tianjin Common Cancer Case Cohort (TJ4C), males who were not diagnosed with any cancers at baseline since 2017 and received both tPSA and fPSA testes were selected. Based on Cox regression, the overall and age-specific (＜60, 60-＜70, and ≥70 years) accuracy and optimal cut-off values of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA ratio for screening prostate cancer were evaluated with time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve (tdROC) and area under curve (AUC). Bootstrap resampling was used to internally validate the stability of the optimal cut-off value, and the PLCO study was used to externally validate the accuracy under different cut-off values.Results:A total of 5 180 participants were included in the study, and after a median follow-up of 1.48 years, a total of 332 prostate cancer patients were included. In the total population, the tdAUC of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA screening for prostate cancer were 0.852 and 0.748, respectively, with the optimal cut-off values of 5.08 ng/ml and 0.173, respectively. After age stratification, the age specific cut-off values of tPSA in the <60, 60-<70, and ≥70 age groups were 3.13, 4.82, and 11.54 ng/ml, respectively, while the age-specific cut-off values of fPSA/tPSA were 0.153, 0.135, and 0.130, respectively. Under the age-specific cut-off values, the sensitivities of tPSA screening for prostate cancer in males <60, 60-70, and ≥70 years old were 92.3%, 82.0%, and 77.6%, respectively, while the specificities were 84.7%, 81.3%, and 75.4%, respectively. The age-specific sensitivities of fPSA/tPSA for screening prostate cancer were 74.4%, 53.3%, and 55.9%, respectively, while the specificities were 83.8%, 83.7%, and 83.7%, respectively. Both bootstrap's internal validation and PLCO external validation provided similar results. The combination of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA could further improve the accuracy of screening.Conclusion:To improve the screening effects, it is recommended that age-specific cut-off values of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA should be used to screen for prostate cancer in the general risk population.
