下肢动脉硬化性闭塞症介入治疗围手术期并发症分析

目的 总结下肢动脉硬化性闭塞症介入治疗围手术期相关并发症的防治经验.方法 对207例下肢动脉硬化件闭塞症行介入治疗,统计围手术期各种并发症的发生情况,分析并发症的发生率与泛大西洋介入协会(transAtlantic inter-society consensus,TASC)分型分级之间的关系以及糖尿病和冠心病对重要脏器并发症发生率的影响.结果 本组207例,介入手术成功190例.17例失败,其中13例为介入操作失败、4例死于术后重要脏器并发症.围手术期并发症包括穿刺点出血12例、假性动脉瘤4例、消化道出血2例、动脉破裂6例、脑梗塞8例、急性心衰9例、呼衰13例、肾衰6例、支架内血栓形成5例和蓝趾综合征1例.在本组患者的TASC分型中,股腘动脉病变介入治疗并发症的发生率为39.84%(51/128),高于主髂型的18.99%(15/79)(P<0.05);患有糖尿病以及合并糖尿病和冠心病患者重要脏器并发症的发生率分别为27.66%(13/47)和24.49%(12/49),高于无合并症患者的5%(2/40)(P<0.05).结论 下肢动脉硬化性闭塞症介入治疗围手术期并发症发生率较高可能与术中操作不当、病变类型复杂及合并糖尿病和冠心病有关,术前注意合并症的处理及术中选择合理治疗方式、缩短手术时间等可减少并发症的发生.     

下肢动脉硬化闭塞症的外科治疗

目的:探讨外科治疗下肢动脉硬化闭塞症的临床经验。方法:从1995年7月～2002年7月共对292例(313条肢体)动脉硬化闭塞症病人进行外科治疗,其中20条患肢施行解剖外血管重建术,38条患肢施行了腔内外科治疗或合并开放性血管重建手术,255条患肢施行了开放性手术重建下肢血供。结果:手术成功者患肢的踝肱指数与术前比较显著增加(P<0.01),症状得到明显改善。平均随访时间3.1年(0.5～7年),解剖外重建组移植血管一期通畅率为56%,腔内外科组通畅率为78%,开放性手术组通畅率为72%。结论:病人的全身情况、动脉病变的范围和程度是选择下肢动脉硬化闭塞症外科治疗方法的主要依据,为取得较好的长期通畅率和临床效果需要重视围手术期处理和术后随访。     

慢性肾脏病非透析患者脑钠素与动脉粥样硬化及心功能的关系

目的 研究脑钠素（BNP）与慢性肾脏病（CKD）非透析患者动脉粥样硬化及心功能不全的关系。 方法 采用双抗夹心免疫荧光法检测203例CKD非透析患者与16例高血压患者对照组全血BNP水平，分析其与颈动脉超声结果、心脏彩超结果及既往心血管疾病史的关系。 结果 CKD非透析患者BNP水平与对照组相比显著升高[M（范围）：54.40(15.10～ 173.00) ng/L比9.35(7.35～15.00) ng/L，P < 0.01]。Spearman相关分析显示CKD患者BNP与颈动脉内膜中层厚度（IMT）、左室心肌重量指数（LVMI）等呈正相关。存在颈动脉斑块、左室肥厚或既往发生过心血管事件的患者血BNP水平显著增高。多元回归分析显示LVMI、既往心血管事件均是影响BNP水平的独立因素。 结论 CKD非透析患者BNP水平和动脉粥样硬化性疾病、左室肥厚及心功能不全相关，提示BNP水平可作为一项评价CKD非透析患者心功能及动脉粥样硬化的敏感生物学指标。     

严重鼻衄行颌内动脉栓塞术并发脑梗塞死亡

报道１例严重鼻衄伴高血压、动脉硬化患者，经常规方法止血无效，行患侧颌内动脉超选择性栓塞术。术后鼻出血停止，但出现脑梗塞、昏迷，经抢救无效，于术后第９天死亡。认为对有动脉硬化的患者，应不用或慎用超选择性动脉栓塞术。     

猕猴实验性脑动脉硬化扫描电镜观察

本实验表明,猕猴高脂造型22—28个月,其大脑中动脉(Middle Cerebral Artery:MCA)内皮发生水肿、细胞间隙变宽,局部破裂等改变,中膜平滑肌细胞增生、迁移。老年高脂组病损程度较重,且中央支也表现出类似改变。结果提示,高血脂可以引起脑动脉硬化性改变,且病损程度与年龄因素密切相关。     

ApoE-/-小鼠肾动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂的肾损害

目的 探讨ApoE^-/-小鼠肾动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂对下游肾脏的损伤机制。 方法 采用ApoE^-/-小鼠建立粥样硬化性肾动脉狭窄(ARAS)动物模型。选择肾动脉狭窄程度 <50％的ApoE^-/-小鼠，按斑块分为破裂组和未破裂组；选择同条件喂养的C57BL/6J 野生型小鼠为对照组。常规检测Scr及尿 N-乙酰-β-氨基葡萄糖苷酶(NAG)活性；Western印迹检测细胞核中核转录因子κBp65（NF-κBp65）、细胞间黏附分子1（ICAM-1）及P-选择素（P-sel）表达； RT-PCR检测白细胞介素6 （IL-6）mRNA表达；免疫组化染色检测巨噬细胞浸润情况。 结果破裂组Scr和尿NAG活性明显升高（均P < 0.01）；肾组织出现病理改变，肾间质中巨噬细胞浸润增加（P < 0.05）；细胞核中NF-κBp65表达增加（P < 0.05）；ICAM-1、P-sel、IL-6 mRNA表达增加（P < 0.05）。未破裂组上述指标与对照组比较，差异无统计学意义（P > 0.05）；肾脏未见明显病理改变。 结论 肾动脉粥样硬化斑块破裂可引起肾脏病理改变和肾功能受损；在粥样硬化性肾动脉狭窄的肾损害机制中，炎性反应是重要因素之一。     

Intermediate filament expression in human vascular smooth muscle and in arteriosclerotic plaques

Summary Different regions of human aorta and of other human arteries obtained at autopsy were analyzed with regard to their topography and to the different stages of arteriosclerosis. Material was studied by immunocytochemical techniques with antibodies specific for either desmin (D) or for vimentin (V), the two types of intermediate filament proteins present in vascular smooth muscle cells. In normal arteries endothelial cells as well as the adjacent intimal cells were D–V+. In the media D+V+ as well as D–V+ cells were present, with the relative numbers of each cell type dependent on the particular blood vessel. When cells in arteriosclerotic plaques at different stages of development were examined an occasional plaque showed cells of the D+V+ type. In the majority of plaques however the cells were V– D+. In plaques where severe ulceration and necrotic material was present D–V+ cells were found at the border of the lesion: foam cells when they could be identified appeared to be D–V+.     

Isolation and radiation hybrid mapping of dinucleotide repeat polymorphism at the human matrix Gla protein (MGP) locus

Matrix Gla protein (MGP) is an 84-residue, vitamin K-dependent protein expressed by chondrocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells, and is a potent regulator of calcium deposition in cartilage and arterial wall. We isolated a polymorphic dinucleotide CA repeat marker from a genomic clone containing the human MGP gene. This polymorphism will be useful in genetic studies of arteriosclerosis and osteoporosis.

血凝素样氧化低密度脂蛋白受体-1与动脉粥样硬化的研究进展

Lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1 } is a type-Ⅱ membrane protein belonging to the C-type lectin family molecules, which acts as a cell surface endocytosis receptor for atherogenic oxidized LDL (Ox-LDL）. LOX-1 supports the binding internalization and proteolytic degradation of oxidized LDL, but not of significant amounts of acetylated LDL. LOX-1 is initially synthesized as a 40 kD precursor protein with N-linked high mannose-type carbohydrate, which is further glycosylated and processed into a 48-kD mature form. In vivo, endothelial cells that cover early therosclerotic lesions, intimal macrophages and smooth muscle cells in advanced atherosclerotic plaques express LOX-1. LOX-1 is cleaved at membrane proximal extracellular domain and released from the cell surface. Measurement of soluble LOX-1 in vivo may provide novel diagnostic strategy for the evaluation and prediction of atherosclerosis and vascular diseases.     

Non-invasive evaluation of abdominal aortic properties: lumped circuit model and estimation of its parameters

To non-invasively determine abdominal aortic properties, a five-element lumped circuit model was adopted. The model consists of resistance due to blood viscosity (R1), inertia of blood flow, compliances of the vessel (C1, C2), resistance of the peripheral arteries (R2) and the impedance of the femoral arteries (termination). Patterns of the central velocity of the upper abdominal aorta and the femoral artery are measured by pulsed Doppler echocardiography, and confours of flow volume rates are calculated. The pressure pattern of the lower limb is recorded by a pulse wave rransducer and corrected according to sphygmomanometer values. Contours are transformed into respective Fourier transform components. The current transfer function is described theoretically and calculated from the acquired Fourier components. Values of every element are evaluated by the nonlinear least squares method. In 94 subjects (17–92 years), the values of each element are estimated. R2 values are greater in the elderly group, than in the young group and r₁ (R1/cm) increased with age. This model demonstrates that vessel compliance (c₁+c₂ (C1+C2/cm)) decreases with age, and it is suggested that this may be a useful marker of arteriosclerosis.
