中国儿童心脏移植操作规范(2019版)

儿童心脏移植是治疗年龄18岁终末期心力衰竭患者的有效手段。1967年美国Adrian Katrowitz实施第一例儿童心脏移植,近五年全球80家单位每年开展500例左右。中国儿童心脏移植起步晚、发展慢。自1995年开展第一例儿童心脏移植以来,目前国内已登记病例超过130例。中华医学会器官移植学分会组织心脏移植专家,总结国内外相关研究最新进展,结合国际指南和临床实践,针对儿童心脏移植受者选择及常用术式的操作要点、程序和方法,以及各类复杂先天性心脏病心脏移植的特殊操作,制订《中国儿童心脏移植适操作规范(2019版)》。

Loss of function,missense, and intronic variants in NOTCH1 confer different risks for left ventricular outflow tract obstructive heart defects in two European cohorts

Loss of function variants in NOTCH1 cause left ventricular outflow tract obstructive defects (LVOTO). However, the risk conferred by rare and noncoding variants in NOTCH1 for LVOTO remains largely uncharacterized. In a cohort of 49 families affected by hypoplastic left heart syndrome, a severe form of LVOTO, we discovered predicted loss of function NOTCH1 variants in 6% of individuals. Rare or low-frequency missense variants were found in 16% of families. To make a quantitative estimate of the genetic risk posed by variants in NOTCH1 for LVOTO, we studied associations of 400 coding and noncoding variants in NOTCH1 in 1,085 cases and 332,788 controls from the UK Biobank. Two rare intronic variants in strong linkage disequilibrium displayed significant association with risk for LVOTO amongst European-ancestry individuals. This result was replicated in an independent analysis of 210 cases and 68,762 controls of non-European and mixed ancestry. In conclusion, carrying rare predicted loss of function variants in NOTCH1 confer significant risk for LVOTO. In addition, the two intronic variants seem to be associated with an increased risk for these defects. Our approach demonstrates the utility of population-based data sets in quantifying the specific risk of individual variants for disease-related phenotypes.
