cute coronary syndrome (HR=41.203, 95%CI 4.859-349.361, P less then 0.01), and peripheral vascular diseases (HR=2.808, 95%CI 1.067-7.393, P less then 0.05) were the risk factors of the MACE for the patients treated by interventional therapy with late SVGD. Conclusion For the patients with late SVGD after CABG, the success rate of intervention with vein grafts and own coronary vessels are both high with satisfactory safety.The in-hospital mortality of interventional therapy in own coronary vessels is lower than in graft vessel. Patients with acute coronary syndrome and peripheral vascular disease have a poor prognosis.Objective To investigate the association between postprocedural D-dimer, high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP) and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C) and outcomes of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients treated by percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI), in order to clarify the impacts of thrombotic, inflammatory and cholesterol risks on long-term prognosis. Methods Patients with AMI who underwent emergency PCI from January 2010 to June 2017 in Fuwai Hospital with complete baseline data were enrolled. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Rapamycin.html Patients were stratified into four groups according to quartiles of D-dimer, hs-CRP and LCL-C. Cox regression was used to analyze the relationship between these biomarkers and prognosis. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) was used to characterize the continuous association between risk of all-cause death and biomarkers. The primary outcome was all-cause death. Results A total of 3 614 patients were included in the analysis. The age was (59.2±12.0) years old, and 2 845 (78.7%) were male and 3 161 (87.5%) patients were diagnosed as ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction. The follow-up time was 652 (414, 1 880) days. Survival analysis showed that postprocedural D-dimer and hs-CRP were significantly associated with all-cause mortality (all P0.05). Conclusions Postprocedural D-dimer is significantly associated with long-term prognosis of AMI patients treated by PCI. Patients with extremely high or low levels of hs-CRP presents worse outcomes. Intensive and tailored antithrombotic or anti-inflammatory therapies should be considered for patients with increased thrombotic risk and those with extremely high or low inflammatory risk.Objective To explore the effects and mechanisms of Dendrobium nobile Lindl. alkaloids (DNLA) on myocardial lipid metabolism during ischemia-reperfusion in dogs undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods Twenty-four healthy hybrid dogs, half male and half female, were randomly divided into sham group, model group, solvent control group and treatment group (DNLA, 6 mg/kg) (n=6), all of which were established with CPB. Except for the sham group, the aorta of the other groups was occluded for 60 min and then reopened. The uptake rate of free fatty acids, the concentration of long-chain acyl coenzyme A (LCACoA), mRNA and protein expression of fatty acid translocase enzyme/CD36 (FAT/CD36) in myocardial tissue and the cardiac function indexes were measured at 4 time points before cardiopulmonary bypass (T1), 15 min (T2), 60 min (T3), and 90 min (T4) after reperfusion in each group. Results Before CPB, there were no statistically significant differences in the uptake rate of free fatty acids, the concentration ease the uptake of free fatty acids, and reduce the abnormal accumulation of LCACoA in myocardium,thereby alleviating the myocardial injury after ischemia-reperfusion.Objective To clarify the clinical characteristics of chest infections caused by streptococcus anginosus group (SAG). Methods A total of 26 patients diagnosed in Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from January 2014 to October 2019 were enrolled. The analyzed clinical data included baseline data, clinical symptoms, imaging manifestations, therapies, and outcomes. The microbiological diagnosis was established based on the specimens collected by lung needle biopsy, bronchoscopy, artificial airway aspiration, thoracentesis or thoracoscopy. Results Among the 26 patients, there were 23 (88.5%) males and 3 (11.5%) females aged (63.0±12.5) years, and 21 cases (80.8%) had potential diseases. The distribution of clinical manifestations included 21 cases (80.8%) with fever, 13 cases (50.0%) with pectoralgia, 13 cases (50.0%) with cough, and 13 cases (50.0%) with expectoration. Chest CT displayed 18 cases (69.2%) with nodules, 18 cases (69.2%) with pleural effusion, 17 cases (65.4%) with patchy shadows, 12 cases (46.2%) with consolidation, 4 cases (15.4%) with cavity, 3 cases (11.5%) with spontaneous pneumothorax. 13 cases (50.0%) of Streptococcus constellatus, 12 cases (46.2%) of Streptococcus anginosus and 1 case (3.8%) of Streptococcus intermadius were observed through the bacterial culture. After anti-infection treatment and invasive operation (including tracheoscopy, thoracoscopy, lung puncture, and thoracic puncture drainage), the prognosis of 24 cases (92.3%) became satisfactory, and 2 (7.7%) died. Conclusion Pulmonary infection caused by SAG is mainly seen in male patients with underlying diseases. No specificity is displayed in clinical manifestations. CT manifestations usually show intrapulmonary nodules, patchy shadows, consolidation and pleural effusion.Objective To investigate the effects of bronchial thermoplasty (BT) on airway remodeling, asthma control and quality of life in patients with severe asthma. Methods From January to September 2019, 11 patients with severe asthma were recruited from China Japan Friendship Hospital to receive BT treatment. The treatment was performed over three sessions separated by 3-week intervals. The right lower lobe, the left lower lobe and the bilateral upper lobes were treated respectively. In this study, patients' self-control method was used. The timepoint before the first BT treatment was defined as pre-treatment group, and the timepoint before the third treatment was defined as post-treatment group. Histological staining was used to detect the airway remodeling of the left lower lobe in two groups, including the mass of airway smooth muscle (ASM) and collagen in airway wall, and the thickness of basement membrane. The cell classification of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from the left lower lobe and peripheral blood, total serum IgE, asthma control test (ACT), mini asthma quality of life questionnaire (miniAQLQ) and the forced expiratory volume in 1 second expressed as percent predicted (FEV(1)%pred) were evaluated in the two groups.
