剖宫产瘢痕妊娠治疗方案的探讨

目的:探讨剖宫产瘢痕妊娠(CSP)的合理治疗方案。方法:回顾性分析2007年1月至2013年12月我院收治的26例CSP患者的临床资料,对其病史、临床表现、处理及结局进行总结分析,重点探讨其治疗方案与预后的关系。结果:采用的治疗方式包括口服米非司酮配伍米索前列醇后超声监测下清宫术6例、超声监测下局部甲氨蝶呤注射3例、全身甲氨蝶呤注射后清宫术2例、子宫动脉(化疗)栓塞后清宫术16例、经腹病灶切除术1例、经腹全子宫切除术1例。前三种方法尽管具有一定的成功率,但均有较高的术后大出血风险。子宫动脉(化疗)栓塞在CSP的初始及抢救治疗中均具有很高的成功率。结论:CSP治疗方案的选择需根据患者的病情、妊娠部位、生育要求等多方面进行综合考虑。在现有的治疗方案中,子宫动脉(化疗)栓塞后清宫术具有较大的优势。

Association of male pattern baldness with angiographic coronary artery disease severity and collateral development

Objective

We aimed to investigate whether there is an association between male pattern baldness and angiographic coronary artery disease (CAD) severity and collateral development, which has not been reported previously.

Methods

Coronary arteriograms, CAD risk factors, lipid parameters and presence and severity of baldness in 511 male patients were prospectively evaluated. Baldness was classified into five groups. Severity of CAD was evaluated with the Gensini scoring system and collateral development with Rentrop scores.

Results

Although subjects with a higher Gensini score had more frequent and severe baldness, they were older than the group with lower Gensini scores. Bald patients had a higher Gensini score when compared with their non-bald counterparts. In univariate analysis, age more than 60, body mass index more than 30, smoking and baldness were predictors of high Gensini scores. In multivariate analysis, only age more than 60, body mass index more than 30 and smoking were independent predictors of a high Gensini score. There were no differences in terms of presence and severity of baldness in subjects with and without adequate collateral development.

Conclusions

There was no relation between presence, severity and age of occurrence of male pattern baldness and Gensini and Rentrop scores, which are important measures of presence and severity of CAD.     

Multivessel revascularisation versus infarct-related artery only revascularisation during the index primary PCI in STEMI patients with multivessel disease: a meta-analysis

Background

There are controversial data regarding infarct-related artery only (IRA-PCI) revascularisation versus multivessel revascularisation (MV-PCI) in ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients with multivessel disease undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). We performed a meta-analysis comparing outcome in same stage MV-PCI versus IRA-PCI in STEMI patients with multivessel disease.

Methods

Systematic searches of studies comparing MV-PCI with IRA-PCI in the MEDLINE and the Cochrane Database of systematic reviews were conducted. A meta-analysis was performed of all available studies. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Secondary endpoints were re-infarction, revascularisation, bleeding and major adverse cardiac events (MACE).

Results

A total of 15 studies were identified with a total number of 35,975 patients. Mortality rate was significantly higher in the MV-PCI group compared with the IRA-PCI group, odds ratio (OR): 1.64 (1.46–1.85). Both the incidence of re-infarction and re-PCI were significantly lower in the MV-PCI group compared with the IRA-PCI group: OR 0.54 (0.34–0.88) and OR 0.67 (0.48–0.93), respectively. Bleeding complications occurred more often in the MV-PCI group as compared with the IRA-PCI group: OR 1.24 (1.08–1.42). Rates of MACE were comparable between the two groups.

Conclusions

MV-PCI during the index of primary PCI in STEMI patients is associated with a higher mortality rate, a higher risk of bleeding complications, but lower risk of re-intervention and re-infarction and comparable rates of MACE.     

Peripheral arterial tonometry cannot detect patients at low risk of coronary artery disease

Background

Endothelial dysfunction precedes coronary artery disease (CAD) and can be measured by peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT). We examined the applicability of PAT to detect a low risk of CAD in a chest pain clinic.

Methods

In 93 patients, PAT was performed resulting in reactive hyperaemia (RHI) and augmentation (AIx) indices. Patients were risk classified according to HeartScore, Diamond and Forrester pretest probability (DF), exercise testing (X-ECG), and computed tomography calcium scoring (CCS) and angiography (CTA). Correlations, risk group differences and prediction of revascularisation within 1 year were calculated.

Results

RHI correlated with HeartScore (r = − 0.21, p = 0.05), AIx with DF (r = 0.26, p = 0.01). However, both were not significantly different between normal and ischaemic X-ECG groups. In addition RHI and AIx were similar between low risk as compared with intermediate-to-high risk, based on risk algorithms (RHI: 1.98 (0.67) vs 1.94 (0.78); AIx: 0.0 (21) vs 5.0 (25); p = NS), or CCS and CTA (RHI: 1.99 (0.58) vs 1.89 (0.82); AIx: − 2.0 (24) vs 4.0 (25); p = NS). Finally, RHI and AIx failed to predict revascularisation (RHI: OR 1.42, CI 0.65–3.1; AIx: OR 1.02, CI 0.98–1.05).

Conclusions

PAT cannot detect a low risk of CAD, possibly because RHI and AIx versus X-ECG, CCS and CTA represent independent processes.     

Characterization of the contractile P2Y14 receptor in mouse coronary and cerebral arteries

Extracellular UDP-glucose can activate the purinergic P2Y14 receptor. The aim of the present study was to examine the physiological importance of P2Y14 receptors in the vasculature. The data presented herein show that UDP-glucose causes contraction in mouse coronary and basilar arteries. The EC₅₀ values and immunohistochemistry illustrated the strongest P2Y14 receptor expression in the basilar artery. In the presence of pertussis toxin, UDP-glucose inhibited contraction in coronary arteries and in the basilar artery it surprisingly caused relaxation. After organ culture of the coronary artery, the EC₅₀ value decreased and an increased staining for the P2Y14 receptor was observed, showing receptor plasticity.
