兔心肌挫伤心功能障碍与心肌细胞内Ca2+和线粒体ATP酶的变化

目的：探讨心肌细胞内游离钙([Ca^2 ]i)和心肌ATP酶变化在心肌挫伤（MC）后心功能障碍发生机制中的意义。方法：随机选取兔36只，分为6组：正常对照、伤后2、4、8、12、24h，每组6只。经右颈总动脉插管至左心室测左室压力。采用BIM-II型生物撞击机致成MC模型。在上述时相点测定左室压力，并测定心肌细胞内[Ca^2 ]i和心肌匀浆组织及线粒体ATP酶活力。结果：心脏收缩/舒张功能受到损害，心肌细胞内[Ca^2 ]i升高，心肌匀浆组织及线粒体ATP酶下降，相关分析表明心功能障碍与心肌细胞内[Ca^2 ]i含量升高呈明显负相关，与ATP酶活性降低呈明显正相关。结论：MC后心脏功能下降，心肌细胞内[Ca^2 ]i含量升高和ATP酶活性下降可能是其原因之一。     

Role of Papillary Muscle Dysfunction in the Pathogenesis of Mitral Regurgitation in Myocardial Infarction:

To elucidate the pathogenesis of mitral regurgitation (MR) after myocardial infarction (MI), the incidence of papillary muscle dysfunction (PMD), mitral annular size, and the extent of wall-motion abnormalities were examined in 81 patients with previous MI by two-dimensional echocardiography and real-time two-dimensional Doppler flow imaging. The prevalence of pathological MR was lower in patients with anterior MI (36%) than in those with inferior (65%) or anterior and inferior MI (88%) (P < 0.01 vs anterior MI group). The incidence of PMD in patients with MR in the anterior MI group (15%) was lower than that in the inferior (50%, P < 0.01) or anterior and inferior MI group (43%, P < 0.05). The mitral annular dimension in patients with MR was significantly greater than in those without MR, but it was similar among the three groups. The extent of wall-motion abnormality correlated significantly with the area of MR jet in the anterior MI group (y = 3.1x + 15.5, r = 0.52, P < 0.01) and in the inferior MI group (y = 8.3x + 32.7, r = 0.57, P < 0.01). However, the slope of this relationship was significantly steeper in the inferior MI group than in the anterior MI group (P < 0.05). These results indicated that the degree of MR with inferior MI was greater than with anterior MI for a given MI area. PMD may play an important role in the higher prevalence and greater degree of MR in inferior MI.

Assessment of myocardial viability in rats: Evaluation of a new method using superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles and Gd-DOTA at high magnetic field.

The aim of this study was to detect salvageable peri-infarction myocardium by MRI in rats after infarction, using with a double contrast agent (CA) protocol at 7 Tesla. Intravascular superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles and an extracellular paramagnetic CA (Gd-DOTA) were used to characterize the peri-infarction zone, which may recover function after reperfusion occurs. Infarcted areas measured from T1-weighted (T1-w) images post Gd-DOTA administration were overestimated compared to histological TTC staining (52% +/- 3% of LV surface area vs. 40% +/- 3%, P=0.03) or to T2-w images post SPIO administration (41% +/- 4%, P=0.04), whereas areas measured from T2-w images post SPIO administration were not significantly different from those measured histologically (P=0.7). Viable and nonviable myocardium portions of ischemically injured myocardium were enhanced after diffusive Gd-DOTA injection. The subsequent injection of vascular SPIO nanoparticles enables the discrimination of viable peri-infarction regions by specifically altering the signal of the still-vascularized myocardium.     

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.
