冠心病患者血糖与微量元素的相关性研究

为探讨冠心病患者血糖与微量元素的关系，用电感耦合等离子体原子发射光谱法测定了７８例冠心病患者的６种微量元素变化，并与血糖做相关分析．结果冠心病患者高血糖组与正常血糖组相比，血清铁、铅、镉显著增高，锌和铬显著降低，Ｐ＜００５或００１，铜无显著性差异；血糖与血清铁、铅呈显著性正相关，与血清铬、锌呈显著负相关，而与铜、镉相关不显著．表明部分微量元素的不平衡构成对冠心病的危险因子———高血糖的促发作用，调整人群中微量元素的不平衡状态，对减少冠心病及糖尿病的发生可能有利     

Effect of metoprolol on death and cardiac events during a 2-year period after coronary artery bypass grafting

PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of long-term treatment with metoprololafter coronary bypass grafting on death and cardiac events. METHODS: Patients in western Sweden on whom coronary artery bypass graftingwas performed between June 1988 and June 1991 were evaluatedfor inclusion during the first 3 weeks after surgery. Majorexclusion criteria were age >75 years, concomitant valvesurgery, traditional contraindications to beta-blockers andunwillingness to participate. Patients were randomized in adouble-blind fashion to 100 mg of metoprolollplacebo daily for2 weeks and thereafter 200 mg daily for 2 years. RESULTS: Of 2365 patients who were operated on, 967 were randomized toeither metoprolol (n=480) or placebo (n=487). Primary end points(death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris,need for coronary artery bypass grafting or percutaneous transluminalangioplasty), were reached by 42 patients in the metoprololgroup (8·8%) as compared with 39 in the placebo group(8·0%) (P=0·73). Of all the patients randomizedto metoprolol, 34% withdrew from blind treatment prematurelycompared with 44% for placebo (P<0·01) CONCLUSION: Prophylactic treatment with metoprolol over a 2-year periodafter coronary artery bypass grafting did not reduce death orthe development of cardiac events. However, the 95% confidencelimits ranged from the possibility of a 30% reduction in eventsto a 68% increase in events if patients were treated with metoprololas compared with placebo.

目的 :探讨冠心病患者血脂异常与胰岛素抵抗的关系。方法 :观察 68例冠心病患者与 66例对照者的血脂、血糖、胰岛素等生化指标 ,以胰岛素释放指数———空腹胰岛素 (FIns) /空腹血糖 (FBG)和胰岛素敏感指数(1 /FBG×FIns)作为胰岛素抵抗 (IR)的指标 ,与空腹血脂进行直线相关分析。结果 :冠心病组与对照组对比 ,血糖水平无明显差异 (P >0 .0 5) ,而血胰岛素、胰岛素释放指数明显较对照组增高 (P <0 .0 5) ,胰岛素敏感指数明显较对照组低 (P <0 .0 5)。冠心病组的甘油三酯 (TG)、总胆固醇 (TC)、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇 (LDL -C)明显较对照组增高 (P <0 .0 5)、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇 (HDL -C)明显较对照组低 (P <0 .0 5)。冠心病组胰岛素释放指数、胰岛素敏感指数分别与TG ,TC和LDL -C呈正相关 ,与HDL -C呈负相关。结论 :冠心病患者存在着高胰岛素血症和胰岛素抵抗 ,而且冠心病患者的胰岛素抵抗和血脂异常密切相关。     

间断缺血心停搏在冠脉搭桥术中的应用

１９９２～１９９３年间为１８０例冠脉病变的病人施行冠脉搭桥术，全部病人均采用核甙抑制剂利多氟嗪预处理和低温（２８℃）间断缺血心停搏进行术中心肌保护。平均每例病人作冠状动脉端吻合３～４个，每个吻合口用９分钟，主动脉阻断累加时间约２５分钟，体外循环时间９０分钟，术后医院死亡率１．６％（３／１８０），无术后心梗发生。作者认为，冠脉搭桥术的术中心肌保护可采用核甙抑制剂和间断缺血心停搏方法，而不用心肌停搏液。     

Osteoporosis and Coronary Atherosclerosis in Asymptomatic Postmenopausal Women

Estrogen deficiency is a risk factor for osteoporosis and coronary artery disease. Osteoporosis can be evaluated by measuring bone mineral density (BMD). Coronary atherosclerotic burden can be evaluated by measuring coronary calcium using electron beam computed tomography (EBT) of the heart. We compared coronary calcium scores in 45 asymptomatic postmenopausal women with normal and low BMD. BMD of the lumbar spine and proximal femur was measured by dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and coronary calcium was measured quantitatively by EBT. Women were divided into control, osteopenia, and osteoporosis groups based on the T score of the lumbar spine. Women were similar in age, years since menopause, height, weight, and body mass index (BMI). BMD ± SD (g/cm²) of L1–L4 was 0.96 ± 0.11, 0.83 ± 0.03, and 0.73 ± 0.05, in control, osteopenia, and osteoporosis group, respectively. The total coronary calcium score ± SD (relative units) was 41.9 ± 83.1, 115.1 ± 181.9, and 221.7 ± 355.4 for control, osteopenia, and osteoporosis group, respectively; the score was significantly higher in the osteoporosis than in the control group. This study provides initial data suggesting that women with osteoporosis may have a higher risk of developing coronary atherosclerosis.

Quantitative assessment of technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile planar perfusion heart studies: application. of multivariate analysis to patient classification

A quantified evaluation of planar cardiac perfusion scintigrams (the objective of the study), obtained using technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) was performed on the basis of an analysis of circumferential profile curves, representing the perfusion as seen in three typical projections. The analysis involved the curves obtained both at rest and after stress, and was based on a comparison of their shape (trend) with the normal trend (normative evaluation). The latter was obtained by means of an original method of iterative fitting of individual curves into the database. The base consisted of curves recorded in 53 patients (separately in males and females) with normal perfusion of the left ventricle (group I, the reference group). A group of 90 patients suspected of having coronary artery disease (group II) was subdivided into two subgroups on the basis of coronary arteriography: (a) those with and (b) those without critical stenosis of at least one artery. Profile curves characterising the LV perfusion were obtained at rest and after stress. Defects of perfusion were quantified by comparison of individual curves with the normal trends. By means of multivariate analysis it was demonstrated that vectors of mean values characterising the scintigraphically assessed defects of LV perfusion in the two subgroups of group II differed very significantly (P<10^–5). Applying methods of discriminant analysis, a classification of patients from group II was performed into those with probable defects of perfusion and those free of such defects. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of diagnosis of coronary ischaemia, based on quantified planar^99mTc-MIBI scintigraphy, reached 86%, 87% and 87%, respectively.

Prevalence of silent myocardial ischemia in asymptomatic individuals with subclinical atherosclerosis detected by electron beam tomography

BACKGROUND: Electron beam tomography coronary calcium imaging is an evolving technique for the early detection of coronary atherosclerosis, and recent studies have established its prognostic value in asymptomatic individuals. The relationship of coronary artery calcium scores (CAC) to obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) has been poorly studied but is clinically relevant because it determines which individuals are likely to benefit from revascularization procedures. Hence, we prospectively evaluated the prevalence of myocardial ischemia in asymptomatic patients with cardiovascular risk factors and subclinical atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS: We studied 864 asymptomatic patients with no previous CAD but with cardiovascular risk factors, referred for electron beam tomography coronary calcium imaging to our institution over an 18-month period. From this group, 220 consecutive patients (85% men; mean age, 61 +/- 9 years; age range, 31-84 years) with moderate to severe atherosclerotic disease (coronary calcium score > or =100 Agatston units) were prospectively evaluated by technetium 99m sestamibi single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Patients were followed up (mean follow-up, 14 months) and data regarding their subsequent clinical management recorded. Of the 220 patients, 119 had moderate atherosclerosis (CAC score of 100-400 Agatston units) and 101 had severe atherosclerosis (CAC score > or =400 Agatston units). Abnormal SPECT findings were seen in 18% of patients with moderate atherosclerosis (n = 21) and 45% of patients with severe atherosclerosis (n = 45). Increasing severity of atherosclerosis was related to increasing ischemic burden (summed difference score = 1 +/- 0.2 for CAC score of 100-400 Agatston units and 3.2 +/- 0.5 for CAC score > or =400 Agatston units). In a multivariate linear regression model incorporating risk factors, CAC was the only predictor of silent ischemia. CONCLUSION: In comparison to previously published data, we detected a higher prevalence of silent ischemia even in patients with moderate coronary atherosclerosis (18%). This may reflect the differing risk factor profile of our patient population. When coronary calcium screening is used to preselect asymptomatic patients with cardiovascular risk factors for myocardial perfusion imaging, the optimum coronary calcium score threshold will depend on the population prevalence of risk factors and asymptomatic obstructive CAD.
