Establishment of a Model of Renal Impairment with Mild Renal Insufficiency Associated with Atrial Fibrillation in Canines

Background

Chronic kidney disease and occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF) are closely related. No studies have examined whether renal impairment (RI) without severe renal dysfunction is associated with the occurrence of AF.

Methods

Unilateral RI with mild renal insufficiency was induced in beagles by embolization of small branches of the renal artery in the left kidney for 2 weeks using gelatin sponge granules in the model group (n = 5). The sham group (n = 5) underwent the same procedure, except for embolization. Parameters associated with RI and renal function were tested, cardiac electrophysiological parameters, blood pressure, left ventricular pressure, and AF vulnerability were investigated. The activity of the sympathetic nervous system, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, inflammation, and oxidative stress were measured. Histological studies associated with atrial interstitial fibrosis were performed.

Results

Embolization of small branches of the renal artery in the left kidney led to ischemic RI with mild renal insufficiency. The following changes occurred after embolization. Heart rate and P wave duration were increased. Blood pressure and left ventricular systolic pressure were elevated. The atrial effective refractory period and antegrade Wenckebach point were shortened. Episodes and duration of AF, as well as atrial and ventricular rate during AF were increased in the model group. Plasma levels of norepinephrine, renin, and aldosterone were increased, angiotensin II and aldosterone levels in atrial tissue were elevated, and atrial interstitial fibrosis was enhanced after 2 weeks of embolization in the model group.

Conclusions

We successfully established a model of RI with mild renal insufficiency in a large animal. We found that RI with mild renal insufficiency was associated with AF in this model.     

慢性肾功能不全对中老年非瓣膜性房颤患者全因死亡、心脑血管疾病死亡及血栓终点事件的影响

目的：探讨中老年非瓣膜性房颤患者全因死亡、心脑血管疾病死亡及血栓终点事件的危险因素及慢性肾功能不全是否为其独立危险因素。方法：纳入未应用抗凝药物的中老年非瓣膜性房颤患者825例,平均年龄为76.52±11.80岁,其中女性占18.91%,75岁以上患者占64.73%,记录基线特征及各终点事件发生情况。通过Cox生存分析,探讨肾功能不全对各终点事件的影响。结果：入选患者中位数随访时间为33.5个月,随访期间发生全因死亡209例、心脑血管疾病死亡61例及血栓终点事件139例。合并慢性肾功能不全的房颤患者各终点事件发生率均显著高于对照组,在校正CHA₂DS₂-VASc评分危险因素及其他传统危险因素后,慢性肾功能不全仍是全因死亡、心脑血管疾病死亡及血栓终点事件的独立危险因素。结论：慢性肾功能不全是未服用抗凝药物的中老年非瓣膜性房颤患者全因死亡、心脑血管疾病死亡及发生血栓事件的独立危险因素之一。     

Plasma Digoxin Concentrations in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation

Plasma digoxin concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay in 116 patients with atrial fibrillation on long-term oral treatment with the drug, and in 23 patients with digoxin toxicity. The mean concentrations were 1·4 ng./ml. and 3·1 ng./ml., respectively. Though an overlap occurred between the therapeutic and toxic ranges, toxicity is unlikely to occur below a level of 2 ng./ml. Plasma concentration showed a poor correlation with resting heart rate during atrial fibrillation. In patients with good renal function, however, a significant correlation was found between oral dose and plasma concentration. No evidence was obtained for increased sensitivity to therapeutic concentrations of the drug in elderly subjects, but the doses required to achieve these concentrations tended to be less than in younger patients.     

Clinical Characteristics,Management, and Control of Permanent vs. Nonpermanent Atrial Fibrillation: Insights from the RealiseAF Survey

Background

Atrial fibrillation can be categorized into nonpermanent and permanent atrial fibrillation. There is less information on permanent than on nonpermanent atrial fibrillation patients. This analysis aimed to describe the characteristics and current management, including the proportion of patients with successful atrial fibrillation control, of these atrial fibrillation subsets in a large, geographically diverse contemporary sample.

Methods and Results

Data from RealiseAF, an international, observational, cross-sectional survey of 10,491 patients with atrial fibrillation, were used to characterize permanent atrial fibrillation (N = 4869) and nonpermanent atrial fibrillation (N = 5622) patients. Permanent atrial fibrillation patients were older, had a longer time since atrial fibrillation diagnosis, a higher symptom burden, and were more likely to be physically inactive. They also had a higher mean (SD) CHADS₂ score (2.2 [1.3] vs. 1.7 [1.3], p<0.001), and a higher frequency of CHADS₂ score ≥2 (67.3% vs. 53.0%, p<0.001) and comorbidities, most notably heart failure. Physicians indicated using a rate-control strategy in 84.2% of permanent atrial fibrillation patients (vs. 27.5% in nonpermanent atrial fibrillation). Only 50.2% (N = 2262/4508) of permanent atrial fibrillation patients were controlled. These patients had a longer time since atrial fibrillation diagnosis, a lower symptom burden, less obesity and physical inactivity, less severe heart failure, and fewer hospitalizations for acute heart failure than uncontrolled permanent atrial fibrillation patients, but with more arrhythmic events. The most frequent causes of hospitalization in the last 12 months were acute heart failure and stroke.

Conclusion

Permanent atrial fibrillation is a high-risk subset of atrial fibrillation, representing half of all atrial fibrillation patients, yet rate control is only achieved in around half. Since control is associated with lower symptom burden and heart failure, adequate rate control is an important target for improving the management of permanent atrial fibrillation patients.

目的:研究经食道超声心动图(TEE)评估特发性房颤左心房左心耳的临床价值。方法:选择自2015年1月到2016年8月在医院接受诊治的特发性房颤患者100例纳入本次研究,阵发性房颤92例,记为阵发性房颤组;持续性房颤8例,记为持续性房颤组。另选同期在医院进行健康体检的心功能正常志愿者90例作为对照组。利用TEE对受试者进行检查,对比房颤组与对照组的左心房及左心耳参数,是否含有自发性显影(LASEC)的房颤患者的左心房及左心耳参数,利用TEE分析对房颤患者的预后情况。结果:阵发性房颤组左心房的前后径和左右径,左心耳血流最大的排空速度(Lev)均明显小于对照组,左心耳的面积变化率及最大的充盈速度(Lfv)均明显大于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P0.05)。持续性房颤组左心房的前后径和左右径均明显大于对照组,左心耳的面积变化率、Lev及Lfv均明显小于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P0.05)。阵发性房颤组左心房的前后径和左右径均明显小于持续性房颤组,左心耳的面积变化率、Lev及Lfv均明显大于持续性房颤组,差异有统计学意义(P0.05)。有LASEC者左心房的前后径和左右径均明显大于无LASEC者,左心耳的面积变化率、Lev及Lfv均明显小于无LASEC者,差异有统计学意义(P0.05)。100例房颤患者中发现34例LASEC,占34.00%,其中有18例患者合并有左心耳血栓,占18.00%。总计有66例患者接受导管射频消融疗法,占66.00%,均未在术中及术后7d内出现血栓及栓塞并发症。结论:利用TEE对特发性房颤的患者左心房及左心耳进行评估,有利于更好的辅助患者的临床治疗,值得重视。     

Atrial fibrillation and delayed gastric emptying

Background

Atrial fibrillation and delayed gastric emptying (DGE) are common after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Our aim was to investigate a potential relationship between atrial fibrillation and DGE, which we defined as failure to tolerate a regular diet by the 7^th postoperative day.

Methods

We performed a retrospective chart review of 249 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at our institution between 2000 and 2009. Data was analyzed with Fisher exact test for categorical variables and Mann-Whitney U or unpaired T-test for continuous variables.

Results

Approximately 5% of the 249 patients included in the analysis experienced at least one episode of postoperative atrial fibrillation. Median age of patients with atrial fibrillation was 74 years, compared with 66 years in patients without atrial fibrillation (p = 0.0005). Patients with atrial fibrillation were more likely to have a history of atrial fibrillation (p = 0.03). 92% of the patients with atrial fibrillation suffered from DGE, compared to 46% of patients without atrial fibrillation (p = 0.0007). This association held true when controlling for age.

Conclusion

Patients with postoperative atrial fibrillation are more likely to experience delayed gastric emptying. Interventions to manage delayed gastric function might be prudent in patients at high risk for postoperative atrial fibrillation.     

Passive pericardial constraint protects against stretch-induced vulnerability to atrial fibrillation in rabbits

Atrial fibrillation is more common in conditions with elevated atrial pressure and can be induced experimentally with acute increases in atrial pressure. We examined the effect of increased atrial pressure with and without pericardial constraint to better separate the effects of increased pressure and atrial stretch. In Langendorff-perfused rabbit hearts with intact pericardium, after ligating the pulmonary and caval veins, intra-atrial pressures were increased in a stepwise manner by adjusting the pulmonary outflow cannula. Rapid burst pacing was applied to induce atrial fibrillation at increasing intra-atrial pressures from 0 to 24 cmH(2)O. The atrial refractory period was recorded at each pressure using a single extra stimulus. The protocol was repeated after the pericardium was removed. When the pericardium was intact, atrial stretch was limited by passive constraint, and sustained atrial fibrillation could not be induced despite atrial pressures in excess of 20 cmH(2)O. In contrast, when the pericardium was removed, atrial fibrillation could be reliably induced when atrial pressure exceeded 15 cmH(2)O. This suggests that the electrophysiological effects of acute atrial volume loading rely on atrial stretch rather than increased atrial pressure alone.     

重症蜂螫伤患者的肾脏病理表现

目的:探讨重症蜂螫伤患者的肾脏病理改变,以指导临床针对性的治疗提供参考依据。方法:通过对4例重症蜂螫伤患者的临床表现及肾脏病理做病例报告,初步了解重症蜂螫伤患者的肾脏病理改变。记录所有患者的一般情况、实验室结果、治疗过程及预后,并进行肾穿刺活检以明确病理改变。结果:所有患者均为青壮年,均出现了MODS,包括急性肾衰竭、中毒性心肌炎及急性肝损伤。3例患者的肾组织病理为急性肾小管坏死及急性过敏性间质性肾炎,病理切片中可见少量嗜酸性粒细胞及大量淋巴细胞浸润。1例患者为急性肾小管坏死,未见嗜酸性粒细胞浸润。有急性过敏性间质性肾炎的患者使用小剂量激素反应较好,使用激素后肾功能恢复时间更短。结论:在重症蜂螫伤患者肾脏损伤的过程中,除了常见的急性肾小管坏死、血管内溶血、横纹肌溶解及休克等原因外,急性过敏性间质性肾炎也起着重要的作用,对于此类患者,及时使用激素治疗可能是减轻肾脏损伤、促进肾功能恢复的有效方法。

Impact of Antithrombotic Therapy in Atrial Fibrillation on the Presentation of Coronary Artery Disease

Background

Little is known about whether atrial fibrillation is a presentation of coronary disease. There is a paucity of knowledge about their causal relationship and also the impact of different antithrombotic strategies on the subsequent presentation of symptomatic coronary disease.

Methods and Results

We studied 7,526 Chinese patients diagnosed with non-valvular atrial fibrillation and no documented history of coronary artery disease. The primary endpoint was the new occurrence of coronary artery disease—either stable coronary artery disease or acute coronary syndrome. After a mean follow-up of 3.2±3.5 years (24,071 patient-years), a primary endpoint occurred in 987 patients (13.1%). The overall annual incidence of coronary artery disease was 4.10%/year. No significant differences in age, sex, and mean CHA₂DS₂-VASc score were observed between patients with and without the primary endpoint. When stratified according to the antithrombotic strategies applied for stroke prevention, the annual incidence of coronary artery disease was 5.49%/year, 4.45%/year and 2.16%/year respectively in those prescribed no antithrombotic therapy, aspirin, and warfarin. Similar trends were observed in patients with acute coronary syndromes. Diabetes mellitus, smoking history and renal failure requiring dialysis were predictors for primary endpoint in all antithrombotic therapies.

Conclusion

In patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, there is a modest association with coronary artery disease. Patients prescribed warfarin had the lowest risk of new onset coronary artery disease.     

心房颤动对不同时间窗内急性缺血性脑卒中患者静脉溶栓疗效的对比研究

目的:探讨与对比心房颤动对不同时间窗内急性缺血性脑卒中患者静脉溶栓疗效的影响。方法:选择2014年8月到2016年5月在我院进行诊治的急性缺血性脑卒中患者98例,其中卒中前已诊断心房颤动定义为慢性心房颤动组(n=50),入院后诊断心房颤动者为新发心房颤动组(n=48);两组都给予重组组织型纤溶酶原激活剂(rt-PA)静脉溶栓治疗,记录两组预后情况。结果:两组患者的性别、年龄、时间窗、合并疾病、血糖与甘油三酯含量对比无明显差异(P0.05)。慢性心房颤动组与新发心房颤动组的有效率分别为94.0%和95.8%,组间比较差异无统计学意义(P0.05)。慢性心房颤动组与新发心房颤动组治疗后的m RS评分分别为6.22±1.83分和6.29±1.45分,都明显低于治疗前的9.24±1.31分和9.19±1.52分(P0.05),组间对比无明显差异(P0.05)。慢性心房颤动组的症状性脑出血与非症状性脑出血发生率分别为4.0%和2.0%,都明显低于新发心房颤动组的14.6%和12.5%(P0.05)。结论:发病4.5h之内静脉溶栓急性缺血性脑卒中是安全有效的,新发心房颤动不影响患者静脉溶栓后的神经功能结局,但是会增加症状性脑出血与非症状性脑出血,需要加强预防性管理。

Splint renal function after captopril in unilateral renal artery stenosis.

The renal extraction ratios of 131I-sodium iodohippurate (131I-Hippuran) and 125I-thalamate were greatly reduced on the affected side by 50 mg captopril in seven out of 14 patients with unilateral renal artery stenosis. With long term captopril 150 mg daily the uptake of 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid by the affected kidney, which was determined by scintillation camera renography, became almost zero in these seven patients, indicating severe reduction of the glomerular filtration rate. Function of the affected kidney returned on discontinuing treatment. The reduced extraction of sodium iodohippurate probably reflected a shortened plasma transit time through the kidney due to intrarenal vasodilatation. The reduced extraction of thalamate reflected a low filtration fraction, suggesting that the vasodilatation was, at least in part, at the level of the postglomerular arterioles. Captopril had little effect on the contralateral kidney and on the kidneys of 17 patients with essential hypertension, and serum creatinine concentrations showed minor changes. Radioisotope renography should be performed after beginning captopril treatment in patients with renal artery stenosis. This is also recommended for patients given captopril as a third line drug when renal artery stenosis has not been excluded. Hypertension is these patients is often severe and difficult to control. Renal artery disease is not rare in this difficult group and finding seriously impaired renal function on one side during captopril treatment may be diagnostic.     

左房增大对起搏器术后的老年阵发性房颤患者再发房颤的影响

Anticoagulación en población anciana con fibrilación auricular no valvular. Artículo de revisión

Aging is an important risk factor for patients with atrial fibrillation. The estimated prevalence of atrial fibrillation in patients aged ≥80 years is 9–10%, and is associated with a four to five fold increased risk of embolic stroke, and with an estimated increased stroke risk of 1.45-fold per decade in aging. Older age is also associated with an increased risk of major bleeding with oral anticoagulant therapy. This review will focus on the role of oral anticoagulation with new oral anticoagulants, non-vitamin K antagonist in populations with common comorbid conditions, including age, chronic kidney disease, coronary artery disease, on multiple medication, and frailty. In patients 75 years and older, randomised trials have shown new oral anticoagulants to be as effective as warfarin, or in some cases superior, with an overall better safety profile, consistently reducing rates of intracranial haemorrhages. Prior to considering oral anticoagulant therapy in an elderly frail patient, a comprehensive assessment should be performed to include the risks and benefits, stroke risk, baseline kidney function, cognitive status, mobility and fall risk, multiple medication, nutritional status assessment, and life expectancy.     

Atrial fibrillation precipitated by acute hypovolaemia.

Six patients with varying degrees of acute cardiorespiratory failure were seen. All patients deteriorated noticeably when rapid atrial fibrillation developed. In all patients intravenous digitalis failed to slow the ventricular response, and in three patients misguided attempts at electrical cardioversion failed. Haemodynamic monitoring showed a normal or low pulmonary artery occlusion pressure in all patients. Controlled expansion of plasma volume was associated with an immediate slowing of the heart rate in all patients, and the heart rate in all patients returned to sinus rhythm within 30 minutes of transfusion. It is suggested that hypovolaemia in critically ill patients may contribute to the development of atrial fibrillation.     

Renal Denervation Suppresses Atrial Fibrillation in a Model of Renal Impairment

BackgroundA close association exists between renal impairment (RI) and atrial fibrillation (AF) occurrence. Increased activity of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) may contribute to the development of AF associated with RI. Renal denervation (RDN) decreases central sympathetic activity.ObjectiveThe main objective of the study was to explore the effects of RDN on AF occurrence and its possible mechanisms in beagles with RI.MethodsUnilateral RI was induced in beagles by embolization of small branches of the renal artery in the right kidney using gelatin sponge granules in Model (n = 6) and RDN group (n = 6). The Sham group (n = 6) underwent the same procedure, except for embolization. Then animals in RDN group underwent radiofrequency ablation of the renal sympathetic nerve. Cardiac electrophysiological parameters, blood pressure, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure, and AF inducibility were investigated. The activity of the SNS, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), inflammation and atrial interstitial fibrosis were measured.ResultsEmbolization of small branches of the renal artery in the right kidney led to ischemic RI. Heart rate, P wave duration and BP were increased by RI, which were prevented or attenuated by RDN. Atrial effective refractory period was shortened and AF inducibility was increased by RI, which were prevented by RDN. Antegrade Wenckebach point was shortened, atrial and ventricular rates during AF were increased by RI, which were attenuated or prevented by RDN. Levels of norepinephrine, renin and aldosterone in plasma, norepinephrine, angiotensin II, aldosterone, interleukin-6 and high sensitivity C-reactive protein in atrial tissue were elevated, and atrial interstitial fibrosis was enhanced by RI, which were attenuated by RDN.ConclusionsRDN significantly reduced AF inducibility, prevented the atrial electrophysiological changes in a model of RI by combined reduction of sympathetic drive and RAAS activity, and inhibition of inflammation activity and fibrotic pathway in atrial tissue.     

在大鼠牵拉心房和急性扩张血容量所致的肾效应

在28只麻醉大鼠,观察了牵拉心房和急性扩容时的肾效应。用5—7g的砝码牵拉大鼠右心房30min(n=6)时,尿量、尿钠和尿钾分别增加98％、127％和59％;牵拉左心房(n=4)所致的肾效应与牵拉右心房的基本相同。切断双侧迷走神经后,牵拉右心房的肾效应无明显改变。在切断迷走神经的大鼠,观察了双线结扎右心耳对急性扩容后肾效应的影响。急性扩容在假手术大鼠引起明显的利尿、钠尿和钾尿效应(P<0.01);而结扎右心耳的大鼠,钠尿效应约为假手术大鼠的一半,但尿量和尿钾排泄量与假手术组无明显异差。上述肾效应不受切断迷走神经的影响,因此不是通过容量感受性反射引起的。根据以上结果,我们推测,牵拉心房或急性扩容引起的尿量、尿铜和尿钾的增多,可能是心房钠尿因子释放增多所致,而结扎右心耳则导致释放入血流的心房钠尿因子减少。
