Objective:To explore the impact of changes of myocardial infarct size on left ventricular adverse remodeling in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:This was a prospective cohort study. The STEMI patients who underwent primary PCI in the First Medical Center of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital, Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Hainan Hospital of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital and Guangxi Yulin First People Hospital from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2022 were enrolled. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) was performed to dynamically assess the myocardial infarct size and calculate the rate of infarct size change between the acute phase (5 to 7 days post-primary PCI) and 6-month follow-up. The endpoint was left ventricular adverse remodeling which was defined as an increase of more than 20% in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) assessed by CMR at 6 months after primary PCI compared with LVEDV at 1 week after primary PCI. Based on serial CMR assessments, the patients were divided into left ventricular adverse remodeling group and non-remodeling group. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive performance of infarct size change for left ventricular adverse remodeling, and according to the optimal cutoff value, improved infarct size was defined as a decrease of >20% in the infarct size measured by CMR at 6 months after primary PCI compared with infarct size at 1 week after primary PCI. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the protective factors and risk factors for left ventricular adverse remodeling.Results:A total of 267 patients were enrolled, aged (58±11) years, with 234 males (87.6%). And 73 cases in the left ventricular remodeling group and 194 cases in the non-remodeling group. Infarct size assessed by CMR at 6 months after primary PCI decreased significantly compared with infarct size at 1 week after primary PCI in the left ventricular remodeling group ((23±13)% vs. (27±12)%, P=0.004), the same as in the non-remodeling group ((18±10)% vs. (23±10)%, P<0.001). The area under the ROC curve for the rate of infarct size change in predicting left ventricular remodeling was 0.735 (95% CI 0.670-0.799, P<0.001), a 20% reduction was the optimal cut-off value. Compared to the patients with non-improved infarct size, the incidence of left ventricular adverse remodeling was significantly lower in the patients with improved infarct size (18% (24/133) vs. 37% (49/134), P=0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that improvement in IS was a protective factor for left ventricular adverse remodeling ( OR=0.376, 95% CI 0.236-0.721, P=0.002). Conclusion:Patients with STEMI who experience obvious reduction in infarct size after primary PCI have a significantly reduced risk of left ventricular adverse remodeling.

The existing doctor-patient communication pattern often falls prey to insufficient informed consent and even medical disputes. In the patient centered perspective, Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital explored a new communication mode centering on patients. Based on diagnosis-related groups catalogues and high-frequency surgeries catalogues of the departments, multimedia technology was called into play to produce dubbed PPTs and videos that were easy to understand, standardized and homogeneous, which were embedded into medical records system. Following observation of the PPT or video, patients could directly sign an informed consent on the computer. This practice not only deepens patient′s understanding and achieves homogeneous level of the communication, but also elevates doctor′s work efficiency, contributing to building a harmonious doctor-patient relationship.

Objective: In comparison with thrombus aspiration, to study the safety and effcacy of precise intracoronary retrograde thrombolysis during primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).
Methods: A total of 123 consecutive patients with acute STEMI received primary PCI in our hospital from 2014-01 to 2015-12 were enrolled.The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: RT group, the patients received precise intracoronary retrograde thrombolysis (RT),n=60 and TA group, the patients received thrombus aspiration (TA),n=63, among them, 3 patients with failed TA were excluded. Primary end points included occurrence rates of no-lfow after PCI and ST-segment resolution (STR)≥50% at (60-90) min after PCI; primary safety end points included occurrence rates of in-hospital stroke and TIMI-hemorrhage events.
Results:①Compared with TA group, RT group showed decreased no-lfow rate after PCI (1.7% vs 15.0%),P=0.008 and increased rate of STR≥50% after PCI (65.0% vs 45.0%),P=0.028, improved LVEF by echocardiography (50.7±8.6) % vs (46.7±8.3)%,P=0.011. The in-hospital MACE occurrence rate was similar between 2 groups,P>0.05.②No in-hospital stroke or TIMI-hemorrhage events occurred in neither group.
Conclusion: Intracoronary retrograde precise thrombolysis had the similar safety to thrombus aspiration during primary PCI in patients with acute STEMI, it may reduce no-relfow rate and improve left ventricular function after PCI.

BACKGROUND: Peroxisome proliferation-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) is the member of nuclear receptor superfamily, and closely related with the formation of atherosclerosis.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between PPARγ C161→T gene polymorphism and coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (CAHD).DESIGN: Randomized controlled experiment SETTING: Department of Cardiology, Tonai Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology; Department of Cardiology, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University; Center for Human Genome Research,Huazhong University of Science and Technology; Department of Internal Medicine, Affiliated Hospital of Hubei University of Traditional Chinese Medicine; Institute of Geriatrics, Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine PARTICIPANTS: Totally 203 CAHD patients aged (65±11) years, including 129 males and 74 females, were the inpatients and outpatients of Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University and Tonai Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from June 2002 to December 2005.And 156 cases of them were diagnosed by coronary arteriongraphy, among which 43 patients without coronary artery affection or with coronary stricture < 50%, and 113 patients with coronary stricture > 50 %. While 89 healthy physical examinees of Han race and mean (59±9) years old were enrolled as control group, including 56 males and 33 females. There was no blood relationship between controls and patients.METHODS: The experiment was conducted at Tongji Hospital of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from June 2002 to December 2005. PPARγ C161→T gene polymorphism was determined by polymerase chain reaction and restriction endonuclease fragment length polymorphisms. The radio-immunity technique, coronary angiography and clinical routine biochemical index were applied to analyze the genotypic frequency and allele frequency distributions as well as the relation between clinical data, biochemical index and different genotypes. The risk factors of CAHD were estimated in the patients of different genotypes.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The genotypic frequency and allele frequency distributions, the relation between clinical data, biochemical index and different genotypes, along with the blood lipid, blood glucose, fasting insulin and body mass index (BMI).RESULTS: Totally 103 CAHD patients and 89 controls were involved in the result analysis of gene polymorphism and yielded different gene distribution frequencies.① In control group, "T" allele frequency was 0.213 and "C" allele frequency was 0.787, and in CAHD group, "T" allele frequency was 0.192 and "C" allele frequency was 0.808. There was no significant difference in the genotypic frequency and C, T allele frequencies between two groups (P > 0.05).② The CC genotype was dominant in CAHD patients with coronary artery lesions, and showed significant differences from "T"allele carriers (CT+TT) (P < 0.05). The CAHD risk in the "T" allele carries (OR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.24-0.63) was much lower than that in the CC homozygote (OR: 1.92, 95% CI: 1.09-2.54).③ Apolipoprotein B in patients with CC genotype was obviously higher than that in patients with "T" allele (CT+TT) (P < 0.05), and there was insignificant difference in the insulin resistance index (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: There is an important correlation between the substitution of PPARγ C161→T and CAHD, and "T" allele carriers demonstrate a lower risk of CAHD.

In order to explore the effects of testicular infection of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) on mature sperm viability at different periods following MCMV inoculation in mice, 91 BALB/c mice without MCMV infection were randomly divided into two groups: an experimental group (n = 56) and a control group (n = 35). The mice in the experimental group were treated by inoculating MCMV intratesticularly, while those in the controlled group were directly inoculated with DMEM without MCMV. The mice in both groups were sacrificed separately on the day 1, 1. 5, 2, 4, 6, 9 and 14 post-inoculation (D1) 1. 5, 2, 4, 6, 9 and 14 PI). The MCMV M83 mRNA gene was detected in the testis by in situ hybridization (ISH) with MCMV late-mRNA probe labeled with digoxin. Sperm viability of mature sperm in the epididymis cauda was measured. The results demonstrated the positive signal of ISH of MCMV was found mainly in the cytoplasm of the testicular interstitial cells and spermatogenic cells in the experimental group. Compared with that in the controlled group, the sperm viability in the experimental group was decreased significantly on D1 PI and D1.5 PI (P < 0.05). No statistically significant difference in the sperm viability was found after D2 PI between two groups (P > 0.05). This suggested that sperm viability in mice might be descended significantly shortly after MCMV infection and might return to normal with time, indicating that MCMV acute infection might temporarily degrade sperm quality and influence procreation transiently.
