Background
The aim of the study was to analyse parameters reflecting the sympathovagal control of ventricular depolarisation and repolarisation [heart rate variability (HRV) and QT interval dispersion (QTd)] in patients undergoing elective percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), and determine whether HRV correlates with QT dispersion parameters.Methods
The study consisted of 26 consecutive patients (16 men, 10 women) with single-vessel coronary artery disease (CAD) who underwent elective coronary angioplasty. HRV analyses of all subjects were obtained with the time- and frequency-domain methods. For frequency-domain analysis, low-frequency HRV (LF), high-frequency HRV (HF) and the LF:HF ratio were measured. For time-domain analysis, standard deviations of the normal-to-normal QRS intervals (SDNN) and square roots of the mean squared differences of successive N–N intervals (rMSSD) were obtained. QT intervals were also corrected for heart rate using the Bazett’s formula, and the corrected QT interval dispersion (QTcd) was then calculated. All measurements (HRV parameters and QTcd) were made before and immediately after PTCA.Results
QTcd was significantly decreased after PTCA (52.2 ± 3.5 vs 42 ± 3.9 ms). SDNN (94.1 ± 22 vs 123.9 ± 35.2 ms), rMSSD (43.7 ± 20.1 vs 73.4 ± 14.5 ms) and HF (51.1 ± 48.8 vs 64.2 ± 28.6 ms2) were significantly higher after PTCA, whereas LF (142 ± 41.5 vs 157.2 ± 25.9 ms2) and the ratio of LF:HF (3.3 ± 1.9 vs 2.1 ± 1.2) were significantly decreased after PTCA. We observed a significant negative correlation after PTCA between QTcd and LF (r = −0.87, p = 0.01) and between QTcd and the ratio of LF:HF (r = −056, p < 0.05).Conclusion
Among the patients with CAD undergoing PTCA, QTcd significantly decreased after PTCA, and negatively correlated with LF, the parameter reflecting the sympathetic system. 相似文献22.
The aim of this study was to investigate the performance of minor salivary gland biopsy (MSGB), serological and clinical data in diagnosis of primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS). Retrospective review of 216 patients who underwent minor labial salivary gland biopsy in last 5 years was performed. Results of the patients with diagnosis of pSS were compared with the patients failing to fill the classification criteria of pSS. Two groups did not differ significantly in terms of clinical symptoms and signs except presence of Raynaud’s phenomenon. Specificity and positive likelihood ratio of clinical signs in diagnosis of pSS were quiet low. A total of 78.7% of pSS patients had a focus score ≥1 (Chiscolm’s score III/IV) while all of the non-SS patients had a focus score <1 (P < 0.001). MSGB has the best predictive value with highest sensitivity and specificity for pSS diagnosis. Serological markers have higher predictive values compared to clinical symptoms and signs. Presence of Raynaud’s phenomenon, lymphopenia and/or hypergammaglobulinemia strengthens the probability of pSS in a patient with sicca symptoms. 相似文献

Background
Aortic distensibility (AD) and pulse wave velocity (PWV) reflect arterial stiffness, which is linked to increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in different diseases such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus, all of which are also common risk factors in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). In the present study, we aimed to determine whether arterial stiffness in different segments of the arterial tree is increased in patients with BRVO. 相似文献24.

Developing brain is much more sensitive to all kind of stressors than the developed brain. Early maternal deprivation causes some behavioural and physiological effects on rats. After the birth, there is no endocrinological response to stressors between post-natal 4 and 14th days, which is called stress-hyporesponsive period (SHRP) in rats. This hypo-responsiveness is time- and stressor-specific, as some more severe stressors have been shown to induce a stress response. The present study examined the effects of maternal deprivation on oxidative stress in the hippocampus, prefrontal cortex (PFC) and striatum regions of the brain both during and after SHRP of the infant rats. The results showed that maternal deprivation in SHRP increased antioxidant enzyme activities and reduced lipid peroxidation in infant rat brain. However, by the termination of SHRP, maternal deprivation reduced enzyme activities and increased lipid peroxidation. The results indicated that infant brain might be protected in SHRP from maternal deprivation-induced oxidative stress. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To determine the efficacy and safety of intravitreal triamcinolone in chronic diffuse diabetic macular oedema. METHODS: This prospective, interventional consecutive case series study consisted of 59 eyes (36 patients) with chronic diffuse diabetic macular oedema, which received an intravitreal injection of 4 mg triamcinolone acetonide. The results were evaluated by clinical examination and fluorescein angiography. Potential complications such as a rise in intraocular pressure, cataract progression and endophthalmitis were recorded. RESULTS: All patients completed at least 6 months follow up. The mean visual acuity improved significantly from 0.17 +/- 3.4 to a maximum of 0.30 +/- 3.3 at the third postinjection month (P < 0.01). Mean improvements in visual acuity measured were 2.15 +/- 1.66, 2.42 +/- 2.66, 1.13 +/- 2.74, 0.96 +/- 2.01 and 0.08 +/- 2.34 lines at the 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months follow-up intervals, respectively. In all eyes in fluorescein angiography, macular oedema was resolved (63%) or decreased (37%) during the follow up. However, the macular oedema reached the pretreatment level in 29 (49%) of the eyes at 6 months and 15 of 21 eyes (71%) at 9 months after injection. Intraocular pressure exceeded 21 mmHg in 10 eyes, which were controlled by topical medication. Four eyes showed cataract progression. Endophthalmitis was not observed in any of the eyes. CONCLUSIONS: Intravitreal injection of 4 mg triamcinolone acetonide appears to be an effective and relatively safe therapeutic method for diffuse diabetic macular oedema. Further studies are warranted to assess the long-term efficacy, safety and the need for reinjection. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Neurocardiogenic syncope is the most common type of syncope. Head-up tilt testing is the investigation of choice for diagnosis of patients with neurocardiogenic syncope. In this study, we aimed to findout any association between heart rate variability parameters and type of tilt-test response in patients with syncope. METHODS AND RESULTS: Forty-nine cases with unexplained syncopal attacks were enrolled into our study and were grouped according to the tilt-test responses. Tilt test was performed in all patients after excluding other causes of syncope. In case of a negative basal tilt-testing, pharmacological tilt testing was performed after 30 min of 5 mg sublingual isosorbide dinitrate. Holter monitoring was done from the beginning of tilt testing upto two hours post-procedure. The heart rate variability parameters analyzed were the mean of all coupling intervals between normal beats, the standard deviation about the mean of all coupling intervals between normal beats, the mean of all 5-min standard deviations of mean of all coupling intervals between normal beats, the proportion of adjacent normal R-R intervals differing by > 50 ms, the root mean square of the difference between successive RRs, and the standard deviation of 5-min mean of all coupling intervals between normal beats and ratio between low and high frequencies. CONCLUSIONS: In 35 patients, the tilt-test was positive, 16 were cardioinhibitor type (Group 1), four cases had a vasodepressor type response (Group 2) and 15 were mixed type (Group 3). Fourteen patients had a negative test result. The heart rate variability measures did not significantly differ among the study groups. The heart rate variability measures were compared between the tilt-test negative (Group 4) and the tilt-test positive groups (Groups 1, 2 and 3) and no statistically significant difference was found. 相似文献

Small-incision manual extracapsular cataract extraction using deep-topical, nerve-block anesthesia. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To determine whether deep-topical anesthesia is suitable for small-incision manual extracapsular cataract extraction (ECCE). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Three hundred twenty-six eyes of 253 patients had small-incision manual ECCE under topical anesthesia with a 4% lidocaine-soaked sponge. The severity of the pain, eye movements, blepharospasm, and intraoperative complications were recorded. Patient and surgeon satisfaction levels were assessed. RESULTS: Operations on 323 eyes (99%) were completed with topical anesthesia. Intraoperatively, topical anesthesia was converted to peribulbar anesthesia in 3 eyes (0.9%) because of excessive eye movements. The cauterization of the scleral vessels and conjunctiva and the subconjunctival injection were the stages causing severe pain. The most frequent intraoperative complication was posterior capsule rupture in 6 eyes (1.8%). The satisfaction level was 95% for the patients and 90% for the surgeon. CONCLUSION: Deep-topical, nerve-block anesthesia provides anesthesia with sufficient quality for small-incision manual ECCE. 相似文献

Tracheocele is a herniation of the tracheal mucous membrane and it is rarely reported in the literature. It may be a congenital defect or an acquired lesion. Traumas, high pressure injuries, long lasting tracheostomy, obstructive tracheal diseases, recurrent infections of the mucous glands of the trachea with subsequent ductal obstruction and dilatation may play a role at the etiology. The best diagnostic procedures are endoscopic examination and computed tomography. The management of acquired tracheocele is primarily conservative, but surgical intervention may be indicated for symptomatic cases. 相似文献

In this study, left and right ventricular functions were examined echocardiographically in 22 patients with scleroderma and 22 healthy volunteers. Conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiography and myocardial performance indexes were used as measures of right and left ventricular global functions. Mitral early diastolic E wave deceleration time, isovolumetric contraction time and left ventricular myocardial performance index and peak tricuspid A wave velocity were significantly higher in the scleroderma group compared with the control group. Mitral and tricuspid E/A ratios were significantly lower in patients with scleroderma. In addition, mitral annular and tricuspid annular isovolumetric relaxation times and the tricuspid E/E' ratio were significantly increased in scleroderma patients compared with the control group. In conclusion, in scleroderma patients the global left ventricular functions were depressed and diastolic function abnormalities were seen in both right and left ventricles. In addition, longitudinal muscle functions of the ventricles were depressed in scleroderma patients, as shown by tissue Doppler imaging parameters. 相似文献
