Objective To analyze the causes of missed diagnosis of sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome ( SAHS) . Methods 42 missed diagnosed cases with SAHS from May 2009 to May 2011 were retrospectively analyzed and related literatures were reviewed. Results The SAHS patients often visited the doctors for complications of SAHS such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, etc. Clinical misdiagnosis rate was very high. Lack of specific symptoms during the day, complicated morbidities, and insufficient knowledge of SAHS led to the high misdiagnosis rate and the poor treatment effect of patients with SAHS. Conclusion Strengthening the educational propaganda of SAHS, detail medical history collection, and polysomnography monitoring ( PSG) as early as possible can help diagnose SAHS more accurately and reduce missed diagnosis.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of different doses of dexmedetomidine on hemodynamics during endotracheal extubation of laparoscopic cholecystectomy in patients with hypertension. MethodsA total of 120 hypertension patients ready to undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia between December 2013 and December 2014 were chosen to be our study subjects. They were randomly divided into 4 groups with 30 patients in each:saline control group (group C), low-dose dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection group (group D1), moderate-dose dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection group (group D2), and high-dose dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection group (group D3). The anesthesia methods and drugs were kept the same in each group, and 20 mL of saline, 0.25, 0.50, 1.00 μg/kg dexmedetomidine (diluted to 20 mL with saline) were given to group C, D1, D2, and D3 respectively 15 minutes before the end of surgery. Time of drug administration was set to 15 minutes. We observed and recorded each patient's mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) in 5 particular moments:the time point before administration (T1), immediately after administration (T2), extubation after administration (T3), one minute after extubation (T4), and 5 minutes after extubation (T5). Surgery time, recovery time, extubation time and the number of adverse reactions were also detected. ResultsCompared at with, MAP and HR increased significantly at the times points of T3, T4, T5 compared with T1 and T2 in Group C and group D1 (P<0.05), while the correspondent difference was not statistically significant in group D2 and D3 (P>0.05). Compared with group C, MAP and HR decrease were not significantly at the time points of T3, T4, T5 in group D1 (P>0.05). However, MAP and HR decrease at times points of T3, T4, T5 in group D2 and D3 were significantly different from group C and D1 (P<0.05). After extubation, there were two cases of dysphoria in group C and two cases of somnolence in group D3, but there were no cases of dysphoria, nausea or shiver in group D1, D2, D3. ConclusionIntravenously injecting moderate dose of dexmedetomidine 15 minutes before the end of surgery can effectively reduce patients' cardiovascular stress response during laparoscopic cholecystectomy extubation for patients with hypertension, and we suggest a dose of 0.5 μg/kg of dexmedetomidine.
To investigate the change of the portal venous pressure (PVP), conjugated glycocholic acid (CGA) and pancreatic glucagon (PG) concentration in rats peripheral and portal venous blood in the course of experimental liver cirrhosis induced with carbon tetrachloride and to investigate the mentioned changes after portalazygous devascularization. The authors found that in the early stage of cirrhosis the PVP and the concentration of CGA and PG in peripheral venous blood were increased markedly, CGA in portal vein was decreased and PG in portal vein was increased in early stage of liver cirrhosis.With the extent of liver cirrhosis the indexes above changed more markedly. After portalazygous devascularization the concentration of CGA in peripheral vein in the cirrhotic rats was increased but PVP, the concentration of CGA in portal vein and PG in peripheral and portal vein did not change.There was no change in nornal rats. The results suggest that the variation in CGA in peripheral vein can accurately reflect the degree of damage to liver cells, thus making the diagnosis of liver cirrhosis earlier and judging the degree and prognosis of liver cirrhosis.The concentration of PG in portal venous and peripheral vein relate to PVP in liver cirrhosis.Portalazygous devascularization can maintain PVP and PG in portal vein and do not affect liver function of the control rats but it can damage liver cell in cirrhotic rats.
Objective To assess the correlation between obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) and hypertension. Methods Such databases as MEDLINE (1950 to April 2011), EMbase (1989 to April 2011), VIP (1989 to April 2011), WANFANG (1977 to April 2011), CBM (1978 to April 2011) and CNKI (1979 to April 2011) were searched to collect literatures about the correlation between OSAHS and hypertension. The literatures in conference proceedings and some unpublicized articles were also retrieved. All cohort studies and case control studies were included. Two reviewers independently collected the data, assessed the quality, and conducted the Meta-analysis by using RevMan5.1 software. Results Among the total 11 studies involving 4 019 participants were included, 1 was prospective cohort study and the other 10 were case control studies. The results of Meta-analyses showed that: a) the OSAHS was correlated with hypertension (P=0.16, RR=2.52, 95%CI 2.21 to 2.87); and b) the correlation between OSAHS and hypertension was related with the different grades of OSHAS (P=0.83, RR=1.84, 95%CI 1.53 to 2.22). The more severe grade the OSAHS, the greater possibility the hypertension. Conclusion OSAHS is significantly related with hypertension, and they may be the mutual risk factor for each other. The correlation between OSAHS and hypertension may be related with different grades of OSAHS.
The management of middle-aged and youth hypertension has become a challenge in clinical practice. The hypertension group of the Chinese Society of Cardiology published the expert consensus on the management of hypertension in young and middle-aged Chinese population in 2019. This paper interprets the key contents of the consensus and provides references for management of young and middle-aged hypertension.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of carvedilol in the treatment of arrhythmia in patients with hypertension complicated with diabetes mellitus. MethodsWe selected the patients with hypertension complicated with diabetes mellitus who were hospitalized in the Harrison International Peace Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University for treatment from Oct. 2011 to Oct. 2013. The cases were divided into a trial group and a control group. The control group was given routine treatment (eg., hypoglycaemic drugs, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors). On the basis of the same treatment of the control group, the trial group was given carvedilol. The efficacy and adverse reaction were observed, recorded and then analyzed between the two groups. ResultsA total of 140 patients were included (70 cases in each group). With the loss of 10 cases in the control group, the data of 70 cases in the trial group and 60 cases in the control group were finally analyzed. The results showed that the trial group was superior to the control group in the total effectiveness (χ2=8.320, P=0.004) and the dynamic ECG improvement of premature ventricular contraction (χ2=5.333, P=0.014) with significant differences. Both groups were significantly improved in blood pressure and heart beats compared with the situation before treatment (Both P < 0.05), and the trial group was better than the control group with a significant difference. During the treatment, three cases in the trial group had mild gastrointestinal symptoms which spontaneously disappeared later. ConclusionThe clinical effectiveness of carvedilol for arrhythmia in patients with hypertension complicated with diabetes mellitus is significant. It is safe and effective which is recommended in clinical application.
Hypertension and its associated cardiovascular diseases such as stroke and ischemic heart disease result in a high burden of disease and health losses, making it the most burdensome disease in the world and one of the important public health issues in China. Currently Chinese scholars have carried out a large number of studies on the prevalence of hypertension, including regional and national prevalence studies. However, long-term follow-up studies on incidence of hypertension are relatively few and mostly limited to specific ages and regions. This paper summarizes the prevalence, incidence and epidemiological trend of hypertension in Chinese adults. The hypertension prevalence increased from 5.1% in 1959 to 27.5% in 2018, and presents an overall trend of high in the north and low in the south. The hypertension incidence is at a high level (the cumulative incidence was 33.4% after 22 years-follow-up), but there are few researches on the trend of hypertension incidence in huge region.
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and hypertension are very common chronic diseases. Active and standardized treatment of hypertension in patients with CKD can not only delay the progress of renal disease, but also reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. In recent years, although the guidelines for hypertension have put forward detailed suggestions for the management of hypertension in CKD patients, there are differences in the recommendation of blood pressure target value for CKD patients. Combined with the latest guidelines, this review interprets the blood pressure measurement methods, diagnostic criteria, antihypertensive targets and drug therapy in patients with CKD.
Perioperative management of 58 hypertensive patients suffering from surgical disease is reported. We emphasize that before operation the blood pressure should be adequately controlled, and heart function promoted. It is safer that the diastolic pressure is controlled under 14 kPa before operation. During operation we strictly observe the change of the blood pressure and manage it in time. Analgesic and antihypertensive agents are used after operation.
