ObjectiveTo systematically review the predictive factors of new-onset conduction abnormalities(NOCAs) after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) patients. MethodsThe CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data, PubMed, Cochrane Library and EMbase databases were electronically searched to collect the relevant studies on NOCAs after TAVR in patients with BAV from inception to December 5, 2022. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using RevMan 5.4 software. ResultsSix studies involving 758 patients with BAV were included. The results of the meta-analysis showed that age (MD=−1.48, 95%CI −2.73 to −0.23, P=0.02), chronic kidney disease (OR=0.14, 95%CI 0.06 to 0.34, P<0.01), preoperative left bundle branch block (LBBB) (OR=2.84, 95%CI 1.11 to 7.23, P=0.03), membranous septum length (MSL) (MD=0.93, 95%CI 0.05 to 1.80, P=0.04), implantation depth (ID) (MD=−2.06, 95%CI −2.96 to −1.16, P<0.01), the difference between MSL and ID (MD=3.05, 95%CI 1.92 to 4.18, P<0.01), and ID>MSL (OR=0.27, 95%CI 0.15 to 0.49, P<0.01) could be used as predictors of NOCAs. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that age, chronic kidney disease, LBBB, MS, ID, the difference between MSL and ID, and ID>MSL could be used as predictors of NOCAs. Due to the limited quantity and quality of included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusion.
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) is a relatively common hereditary cardiomyopathy, which is featured by asymmetric myocardial hypertrophy and dynamic left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. Other than septal hypertrophy, mitral valve abnormalities are also quite common in HOCM patients, and they also contribute to systolic anterior motion of the mitral leaflets and LVOT obstruction. Septal myectomy is believed as the standard surgical treatment for HOCM, but whether to perform mitral valve procedures at the same time of myectomy is still debatable. In this article, we thoroughly explained the mitral valve abnormalities in HOCM patients and their surgical corrections. Besides, we also explained the controversies over mitral valve procedures based on the current clinical studies.
Objective To explore the application of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) clinics in fetal developmental abnormalities. Methods A retrospective analysis method was used to collect case data of fetal developmental abnormalities and completion of prenatal MDT clinics diagnosis and treatment in pregnant women who were registered in the Department of Obstetrics of West China Second Hospital, Sichuan University between December 2021 and November 2022. The situation of pregnant women and fetuses was summarized and analyzed. Results There were 19362 registered pregnant women, of which 1125 (5.8%) had abnormal fetal development. Among them, 272 (24.2%) received prenatal MDT clinics diagnosis and treatment. Fetal developmental abnormalities were mainly characterized by structural abnormalities (208 cases, 76.5%), with the top three being central nervous system abnormalities, circulatory system abnormalities, and multiple malformations. There were 202 pregnant women who continue to conceive, and 70 cases had undergone induced labor, with an induced labor rate of 25.7%. The top three main causes of induced abortion were multiple malformations, central nervous system abnormalities, and circulatory system abnormalities. After prenatal MDT clinics diagnosis and treatment, the diagnosis of fetal developmental abnormalities in 46 pregnant women were corrected. Conclusion Prenatal MDT clinics are helpful for the early comprehensive evaluation of fetal developmental abnormalities and the determination of diagnosis and treatment plans.
Objective?To explore the glucometabolic state of angiographically documented inpatients with coronary artery disease (CAD) but without diagnosed diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods?The study recruited 449 patients, who were performed a coronary angiography as well as an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) when admitted in the cardiovascular medical ward in our hospital from January 2007 to May 2009. According to the results of coronary angiography, the patients were divided into a coronary artery disease (CAD) group and a non-coronary artery disease (non-CAD) group, and abnormal glucose metabolism (AGM) status was compared between the two groups. Results?The random plasma glucose (RPG) and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) had no significant differences (P values were 0.249 and 0.444, respectively) in the two groups, while the OGTT 2-hour plasma glucose (2hPG) was much higher in the CAD group, with a significant difference (Plt;0.001) compared with the non-CAD group. The CAD group had a prevalence of AGM up to 74.0%, of which 32.1% were newly diagnosed DM patients, and 39.0% were impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) patients, much higher than that in the non-CAD group, respectively, there being a significant difference (P=0.006). Logistic regression analyses revealed that the risk of IGT and newly diagnosed DM was 1.6 times (OR=1.603, 95% CI 1.023 to 2.512, P=0.04) and 2.3 times (OR=2.292, 95% CI 1.391 to 3.777, P=0.001) as much as that in non-CAD patients, respectively; when adjusted for the factors such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, BMI, hs-CRP, and other factors, CAD patients still had a higher risk of newly diagnosed DM (OR=1.852, 95%CI 1.064 to 3.223, P=0.029), compared with the non-CAD patients. Conclusion?AGM is common in the admitted patients with CAD but undiagnosed diabetes, most of whom need an OGTT to be diagnosed timely and accurately. OGTT should be considered to be a routine inspection item to diagnose AGM in the inpatients with CAD; if possible, all hospitalized patients with cardiovascular disease should be performed an OGTT routinely.
Multivariate time series problems widely exist in production and life in the society. Anomaly detection has provided people with a lot of valuable information in financial, hydrological, meteorological fields, and the research areas of earthquake, video surveillance, medicine and others. In order to quickly and efficiently find exceptions in time sequence so that it can be presented in front of people in an intuitive way, we in this study combined the Riemannian manifold with statistical process control charts, based on sliding window, with a description of the covariance matrix as the time sequence, to achieve the multivariate time series of anomaly detection and its visualization. We made MA analog data flow and abnormal electrocardiogram data from MIT-BIH as experimental objects, and verified the anomaly detection method. The results showed that the method was reasonable and effective.
目的总结1例非肝移植胆管铸型患者的诊治过程。 方法对1例非肝移植胆管铸型患者的临床资料、辅助检查资料及治疗效果进行分析，并进行文献复习。 结果1例非肝移植胆管铸型患者经生化检查、胆胰管水成像（MRCP）、上腹部CT等检查诊断为胆囊结石伴胆囊炎、胆总管结石伴低位胆管梗阻。采取开腹胆道探查、胆道镜检查取石、胆囊切除、T管引流手术治疗。术中见胆囊缩小，与周围大网膜膜性粘连，肝十二指肠韧带水肿，胆总管扩张呈充盈状态。胆道镜下见肝内外胆管轻度扩张，肝外胆管壁炎性水肿较重，大量纤维素附着；胆总管末端通畅，可见胰管开口，进而诊断为胆胰合流异常。以胆道镜从胆总管内取出1枚结石，约2.0 cm×1.5 cm×1.0 cm大，质硬，表面光滑；另取出1枚胆管铸型，约3.5 cm×0.3 cm×0.3 cm大，质脆易碎，表面粗糙。该患者的手术顺利，切除胆囊术后病理学检查示慢性胆囊炎改变。术后恢复良好，未出现胆汁漏、出血等并发症。术后随访1年，复查上腹部CT提示无结石复发，肝功能各项指标均正常。 结论非肝移植胆管铸型较少见，胆胰合流异常是非肝移植胆管铸型和胆管结石形成的原因之一。胆道镜是清除胆管铸型和观察胆管内结构的重要工具。
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of anti-oxidative treatment in cats with pancreaticobiliary maljunction. Methods Thirteen healthy cats as control group were made a model that resembling the common channel of pancreaticobiliary maljunction as in humans，and were divided randomly into two groups：7 cats in untreated group were not treated，6 cats in anti-oxidative group were treated with melatonin，vitamin C， and vitamin E. Six months later， the gallbladders of these animals were removed and histopathological changes were evaluated by pathological and electron microscopic examination. The level of MDA，amylase concentration in the gallbladder bile，and percentage of proliferating cell nuclear antigen （PNCA） positive cells were also test. Results All cats had survived for 6 months after operation. The wall of gallbladder and the bile became thicker in untreated group than that in normal control group， and there were no significant differences between untreated group and anti-oxidative group. The gallbladder epithelium became villous in appearance in untreated group，although the epithelium of that in normal control group was flat with few folds. The epithelial cells of gallbladder arranged tightly in normal control group， while a significant change such as endoplasmic reticulum expanding， intercellular space broadening， and cellular nucleus deforming were observed in untreated group. The things in anti-oxidative group were better than untreated group. The amylase concentration in the gallbladder bile was （203.02±65.04）U in normal control group，（9 368.09±2 204.42） U in untreated group， and（8 746.25±2 077.95） U in anti-oxidative group， respectively. The amylase concentration in untreated group and anti-oxidative group were higher than that in normal control group （P=0.003），and there was no significant difference between the untreated group and anti-oxidative group （P=0.642）. The percentage of PNCA positive cells was （7.29±2.70）% in normal control group，（54.71±10.90）% in untreated group, and （48.17±13.06）% in anti-oxidative group， respectively （F=48.11，P=0.001），and the percentage of PNCA positive cells in untreated group was higher than that in anti-oxidative group （P=0.001）. The level of MDA was （1.095±0.653） nmol/mg prot in normal control group，（2.745±1.533） nmol/mg prot in untreated group, and （1.302±0.771） nmol/mg prot in anti-oxidative group， respectively （F=5.17，P=0.017）, and the level of MDA in untreated group was higher than that in anti-oxidative group （P=0.017）. Conclusion The anti-oxidative treatment is effective to pancreaticobiliary maljunction.
Objective To analyze the prevalence and influencing factors of dyslipidemia among permanent residents in Longquanyi district of Chengdu for prevention and control of dyslipidemia. Methods Permanent residents in Longquanyi district were selected as research objects by convenient sampling method between November 2021 and February 2022. The dyslipidemia rate in the population was analyzed, and the influencing factors of dyslipidemia were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Results A total of 11 408 permanent residents were included. Among them, 3650 people had dyslipidemia, with a prevalence rate of 32.00% (3650/11408). The prevalence rates of high total cholesterol, high triglyceride, high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol were 19.30% (2 202/11 408), 13.38% (1 526/11 408), 5.05% (576/11 408) and 0.73% (83/11 408), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that female, age≥30 years old, drinking, overweight / obesity, hypertension, diabetes and hyperuricemia were independent risk factors of dyslipidemia among permanent residents (P<0.05). Conclusions The prevalence of dyslipidemia in Longquanyi district is high, mainly with high total cholesterol and high triglyceride. Gender, age, drinking, body mass index, and the levels of blood pressure, blood glucose and blood uric acid are the factors affecting the incidence of dyslipidemia among permanent residents. Early intervention for high-risk groups with dyslipidemia should be adopted to effectively reduce the risk and burden of dyslipidemia.
