Objective To investigate the changes and clinical relationship of plasma adrenomedullin( ADM) , atrial natriuretic polypeptide( ANP) , and heart rate variability( HRV) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome ( OSAHS) . Methods Seventy-five inpatients with OSAHS were enrolled in this study. According to the apnea hypopnea index ( AHI) by polysomnography, the subjects were divided into a mild group, a moderate group, and a severe group. Meanwhile, HRV was screened bydynamic electrocardiogram in sleep laboratory. HRV parameters were obtained including LF ( low frequency power) , HF( high frequency power) , pNN50( percentage of NN50 in the total number of N-N intervals) ,SDNN( standard deviation of the N-N intervals) , rMSSD( square root of the mean squared differences of successive N-N intervals ) . Plasma levels of ADM/ANP were measured by radioimmunoassay. Results The levels of SDNN ( P lt;0. 05) , rMSSD, pNN50, LF ( P lt; 0. 05) and HF were gradually reduced, and the levels of ADM ( P lt;0. 05) and ANP ( P lt; 0. 05) were increased with increasing severity of OSAHS. Linear correlation analysis demonstrated that SDNN was negatively correlated with ADM( r = - 0. 423, P lt;0. 05)and ANP( r = - 0. 452, P lt; 0. 05) , and LF was also negatively correlated with ADM( r = - 0. 348, P lt;0. 05) . Conclusion Lower HRV is associated with more sever OSAHS, and it may be modulated neurohumorally by ADM and ANP.
Objective To assess the changes of cardiac autonomic nerves’s function in patients underwent bronchofiberscopy by observing the dynamic electrocardiogram ( DCG) and heart rate variability ( HRV) , and investigate the effect of different preoperative medications on heart function.Methods Eighty patients underwent bronchofiberscopy were randomly divided into three groups according to different anaesthesia. Group A ( n =30) were local anaesthetized by nebulized lidocaine, group B ( n = 30) received atropine 1 mg injection intramuscularly and nebulized lidocaine, group C ( n = 20) were anaesthetized bypropofol intravenously. The DCG and HRV of three groups were mornitored at pre-inductive point( T0 ) , post inductive point ( T1 ) , point during the operation ( T2 ) , and point after operation ( T3 ) .Results The incidences of ST-T change, tachycardia, and bearing premature in group A and B were increased. The incidence of tachycardia in group C was also increased, but lower than group A and B while the ST-T change and bearing premature were milder ( P lt;0. 05) . Episodes of bradycardia occurred 3 times in group A andnone in group B and C ( P lt;0. 01) . The low-frequency ( LF) , high-frequency ( HF) , total power ( TP) in group A and B were raised, but the LF was highly raised, and the LF/HF and HRV significantly decreased.The LF/HF and HRV decreased lightly in group C ( P gt; 0. 05) . Conclusions Bronchofiberscopy examination can decrease HRV and induce arrhythmia and ST-T change, but also excite vagus nerve. Atropine can inhibit the excitability of vagus nerve and have no influence on HRV. The propofol may obviously decrease the sympathetic nervous activation, balance sympathetic and vagus nerves, which is beneficial to the stability of hemodynamics.
Objective To observe the characteristics of changes of 24hour ambulatory blood pressure and heart rate of 50 patients with anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION). Methods Fifty patients with AION and the persons without in the control group, which had the same number, gender and age as the patients with AION, underwent 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure and heart rate measurement. Results Both groups had no difference in mean blood pressure and heart rate during the daytime (t=1.25,0.93; P＞0.05), higher than those in the nighttime (t=3.63,3.16; P＜0.05). Mean blood pressure and heart rate of AION group at night were lower than those of the control group (t=3.82,1.77; P＜0.01,0.05), especially diastolic pressure of AION group was lower than that of the control group from 2 am to 7 am (P＜0.01), as well as the heart rate from 2 am to 5 am (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01). The curves of blood pressure of AION group showed more gradual and fluctuant rising, while those of the control group showed sharper and less fluctuant rising. Conclusion According to the curves of blood pressure rising, the patients with AION may have some defects in auto-regulatory mechanism of blood pressure. The low spots of blood pressure and heart rate in early morning, which might be a critical point leading to AION. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2002, 18: 259-261)
Objective To systematically review the influence of tight heart rate (HR) control on the efficacy of perioperative β-blockade, and discuss the effective measures of perioperative myocardial protection. Methods We searched the PubMed, OVID, EMbase, the Cochrane Library and Chinese Biomedical Database (CBM) for randomized controlled trials on evaluating perioperative β-blockers after noncardiac surgery. The quality of the included studies was evaluated by the method recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration. Meta-analyses was conducted by using the Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan software. Results Thirteen RCTs including 11 590 patients were included. The combined results of all studies showed cardioprotective effect of β-blockers (OR=0.64, 95%CI 0.50 to 0.80, P=0.000 1), with considerable heterogeneity among the studies (I2=57%). However, grouping the trials on the basis of maximal HR showed that trials where the estimated maximal HR was 100 bpm were associated with cardioprotection (OR=0.37, 95%CI 0.26 to 0.52, Plt;0.000 01) whereas trials where the estimated maximal HR was 100 bpm did not demonstrate cardioprotection (OR=1.13, 95%CI 0.81 to 1.59, P=0.48) with no heterogeneity (I2=0%). Conclusion The evidence suggests that effective control of HR is important for achieving cardioprotection and that administration of β-blockers does not reliably decrease HRs in all patients. Judicious use of combination therapy with other drugs may be necessary to achieve effective postoperative control of HR.
目的 研究长期持续性心房颤动患者静息心率控制与脉搏波传导速度（PWV）的关系。 方法 序贯收集于2011年12月－2012年3月在四川大学华西医院心脏内科门诊就诊的长期持续性心房颤动患者84例，将人群按静息心率是否低于80次/min，分为标准组（心率＜80次/min）和对照组（心率≥80次/min），采用Pearson相关及多元线性回归分析方法，研究静息心率控制与PWV的关系。 结果 ①标准组人群的PWV显著低于对照组，而饮酒率显著高于对照组，差异皆有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。②Pearson相关分析显示静息心率与PWV存在线性相关关系（r=0.355，P=0.001）；多元线性回归分析显示，在调整了年龄、性别、BMI、收缩压、舒张压、吸烟、饮酒、空腹血糖、总胆固醇、甘油三酯、高密度脂蛋白、低密度脂蛋白等混杂因素影响后，心率与PWV仍独立相关。 结论 长期持续性心房颤动患者的静息心率控制不良与PWV升高关系密切。
【摘要】 目的 探讨急性脑梗死对心脏自主神经活性的影响。 方法 Wistar大鼠32只随机分为正常组、假手术组和脑梗死组，脑梗死组用线栓法行右侧大脑中动脉阻塞。脑梗死组和假手术组于术前及术后24 h作心率变异性（HRV）检测，同时检测正常组HRV，将3组的HRV指标进行比较。实验终点取各组心肌组织检测儿茶酚胺和神经肽Y（NPY），进行组间比较。 结果 术后24 h脑梗死组和正常组、假手术组相比，窦性心搏间期标准差、均方根，总功率谱、高频功率谱（HF）、低频功率谱（LF）降低，差异有统计学意义。3组比较LF/HF和分数维无明显差异。脑梗死组心肌组织去甲肾上腺素（NA）和NPY高于正常组和假手术组。 结论 脑梗死引起心脏自主神经总活性降低、自主神经功能受损，自主神经末梢去甲肾上腺素和NPY的异常分泌可能是重要的原因。【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the effect of acute cerebral infarction on cardiac autonomic nervous activity. Methods A total of 32 Wistar rats were divided into normal group, sham operation group and infarction group by random. Experimental cerebral infarction in Wistar rats was induced by intraluminal occlusion of middle cerebral artery. About 24 hours after the occlusion or 24 hours after sham operation, the heart rate variability (HRV) sequences were measured, and the HRV values in the three groups were compared. The levels of catecholamine and neuropeptide (NPY) in myocardium were measured. Results At the 24th hour after the occlusion, the standard deviation and root mean square standard deviation of R-R interval, the total power, high frequency (HF) and low frequency (LF) in infarction group were lower than those in normal and sham operation group. LF/HF and fractal dimension did not differ much among the three groups. The levels of noradrenaline and NPY in myocardium in infarction group were higher than those in the other groups. Conclusion It is suggested that acute cerebral infarction may cause the decrease of autonomic nervous activity and damage of the autonomic nervous function; the abnormal secretion of noradrenalin in autonomic nerve ending and NPY may be the important reasons.
