Objective To formulate an individualized evidence-based treatment for a first-diagnosed patient with coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula. Methods Aiming at the issue of whether interventional operation was necessary for first-diagnosed coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula or not, the computer retrieval was conducted in the US National Guideline Clearinghouse, The Cochrane Library, PubMed and MEDLINE from 1990 to 2011, to collect and assess the best evidence of relevant systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials, controlled clinical trials and treatment guidelines, in order to be applied in clinical treatment. Results There were 1 clinical guideline for treating coronary artery fistula and 3 different high-quality evidence studies were retrieved. The results showed percutaneous coronary intervention was the best treatment currently. According to the obtained evidence and patient’s willingness, the relevant examinations were taken, and the preoperative preparation for percutaneous coronary intervention was done actively after the patient was admitted. Three days after hospitalization, the selective coronary angiography showed right coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula and left coronary circumflexus artery-left atrial multiple fistulae, then the percutaneous coronary intervention spring coil embolization was successfully conducted for right coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula. After operation, bayasprin enteric-coated tablets 0.1 g/d was taken for anti-platelet aggregation and preventing thrombotic diseases. The observation during operation and postoperative 5-day hospitalization showed no relevant complications. Conclusion Percutaneous coronary intervention is safe and effective for the symptomatic patients with coronary artery-pulmonary artery fistula.
In the hospital where centralized treatment was applied for the victims after Yiliang earthquake (on 7th September, 2012), a holistic rehabilitation service mode which centred on supportive psychological intervention promoting was developed by the Yiliang psychological crisis intervention team designated by the National Health and Family Planning Commision of the People’s Republic of China. The pattern takes psychological nurses as liaison, bases on the integrity and continuity of medical service, roots in comprehensive health assessment and key assessment of mental trauma stress, emphasizes on solving realistic problems for patients and their caregivers, provides supportive psychological intervention, and encourages psychological nurses to offer psychological support for earthquake victims with the help of quantitative self-assessment of social psychological support service. In practice, the mode of psychological services, which could be contiuously conducted, is welcomed by hospital managers, work staff, and earthquake victims and their caregivers.
Shortly after the earthquake in Min county and Zhang county, the department of health of Gansu province immediately established a leadership team for earthquake relief and medical rescue, subordinated by psychological crisis intervention teams, which was responsible for training relevant personnel to carry out psychological intervention, and spreading related knowledge about earthquake. Then, emergency psychological intervention was provided for the key population (more than 90 times in total, involving 8 194 person-times). We also offered individualized psychological services (617 person-times), and diagnosed 31 patients with mental disorders through consultation. After the earthquake, the emotion of victims including depression, anxiety and acute stress disorder increased. The workload of psychological crisis intervention after earthquake was heavy and hard. However, Gansu province needs national support due to poor resources.
Objective To systematically review the methodological quality of guidelines concerning pharmacological intervention for complicated hypertension. Methods The databases and relevant guideline websites such as MEDLINE, EMbase, CBM, WangFang Data, National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), Guidelines International Network (GIN), National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) and Clinical Practice Guideline Network (CPGN) were searched to collect the clinical guidelines concerning pharmacological intervention for complicated hypertension. By adopting the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation (AGREE), the methodological quality of guidelines was assessed. Meanwhile the similarities, differences and features of drug recommendation in guidelines for different areas and diseases were analyzed by means of analogy comparison.Results A total of 21 guidelines concerning pharmacological intervention for complicated hypertension were included. The number of guidelines concerning hypertension complicated with coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, diabetes mellitus (DM) and kidney disease (KD) was 5, 5, 7 and 4, respectively. The publication year ranged from 2000 to 2011. According to the AGREE instrument, 19 and 2 guidelines were graded as Level B and C, respectively. The overall guidelines got low average scores in the domain of “Stakeholder involvement” and “Applicability”, including 9 evidence-based guidelines. There were totally 4 and 3 classes in terms of the level of evidence and recommendation, respectively; moreover, 10 and 6 expression forms were adopted in the level of evidence and recommendation, respectively. For hypertension with angina pectoris, -blocker (BB) and calcium channel blocker (CCB) were recommended unanimously. For hypertension with myocardial infarction, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) and BB were recommended unanimously. For hypertension with heart failure, ACEI, angiotensin-receptor blocker (ARB) and BB were recommended unanimously. For hypertension with later stage of post-stroke, 76.47% guidelines recommended diuretic (D) and ACEI. For hypertension with acute stroke, recommendations were mainly based on the guidelines developed by American Heart Association/American Stroke Association (AHA/ASA). For hypertension with DM or KD, the guidelines basically recommended that systolic/diastolic pressure should be controlled in the range of less than 130/80 mmHg. For hypertension with DM, ACEI were recommended unanimously, followed by D and CCB. For hypertension with KD, ACEI/ARB was recommended, while 3 of the 5 guidelines recommending CCB were from Asian. Conclusion The overall methodological qualities of complicated hypertension guidelines differs, with high proportion of evidence-based guidelines. The classification criteria of the levels of evidence and recommendation are still suboptimal. For hypertension with CHD, DM, KD and later stage of stroke, results from high quality clinical evidence are consistent, and the recommendations are basically unanimous, with no regional and quality difference. But in some clinical researches beyond reaching a consensus at present, the recommendation discrepancy exists, and there still remains controversy for hypertension with acute stroke.
Background Though nitrates have been used in achalasia for a long time, the effectiveness of nitrates for achalasia is still controversial. Objectives To quantify short-term and long-term effects of nitrate therapy in patients with achalasia. Search strategy Trials were identified by searching the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register (Issue 4, 2001), MEDLINE (1966-2001), EMBASE (1980-2001), LILACS-Latin American and Caribbean health science literature (1982-2001) and CBM-Chinese Biomedical Database (1980-2000). Additionally, all references in the identified trials were checked for further relevant trials. Selection criteria All randomised controlled trials involving achalasia patients given any type of nitrates were included. Data collection amp; analysis Data were extracted By two independent observers based on the intention-to-treat principle. Odds ratios for the patients need to treat by invasive procedures, improvement of symptoms, LES pressure decrease, oesophageal emptying, and side effects were calculated. Numbers needed to treat (NNT) for avoiding invasive procedure, improvement of symptoms, oesophageal emptying, and numbers needed to harm (NNH) of side effects were also determined. Main results Two randomised cross-over studies were found, But no results are included. Due to the design of the studies and the method of reporting the results in the original paper it was not possible to extract the necessary information to examine any of the outcomes. Authors have been contacted to obtain this information. Reviewers’ conclusion We can conclude no implications for practice at this stage. Much more RCT data are needed to determine the effects of nitrates.

Objective This experiment is to compare the effect of two operations “disconnection” and “ligation” of separation of gastroesophageal peripharal blood vessel in portal hypertension and provide base of rational for selecting reasonable method of separation of gastroesophageal peripheral blood vessel in portal hypertension.MethodsFortyeight SD rats were induced to model of liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension by CCL4 . They were divided at random into 3 groups (16 rats each): disconnection group, ligation group and pseudooperation group. There was also a normal comparison group with 6 normal SD rats (laparotomy only). Thirty days and 100 days after the operation, 8 rats were killed respectively in every group except for the normal comparison group. Thirty days after the operation, the rats of normal comparison group were killed. The adhesion around gastric cardia and fundus with the building of new branch blood vessels, and the relative average blood vessel amounts and average vein caliber changes in submucosa layer and lamina propria layer of esophagus inferior segment were observed. ResultsIn the observation of adhesion around gastroesophageal and the building of new branch blood vessels after the operations, disconnection group was more marked than ligation group. In the observation of relative average blood vessel amounts and average vein calibers changes in submucosa layer and lamina propria layer of esophagus inferior segment, pseudooperation group was more marked than in normal comparison group in different time(P<0.05),and 30 days after the operations, disconnection and ligation groups were less serious than pseudooperation group(P<0.05). One hundred days after the operation, the two observation indexes of all the groups were more serious than before, and result of disconnection group was nearly close to pseudooperation group(Pgt;0.05), but ligation group was still less serious than pseudooperation group(P<0.05).Conclusion Both the “disconnection” and “ligation” operation have the same rank effect of separation of gastroesophageal peripharal blood vessel in short time. But the “ligation” operation makes less trauma, postoperative adhesion and vascularizition, then the separation effect of the “ligation” operation may sustain a relatively long time.
Abstract: Objectives To evaluate the early and mid-term follow-up outcomes of “one-stop” hybrid coronary revascularization strategy for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease. Methods From June 2007 to December 2009, 104 consecutive patients underwent “one-stop”hybrid coronary revascularization in Fu Wai Hospital. There were 93 male patients and 11 female patients with mean age of (61.8±10.2)years(ranging from 35 to 81 years). All the patients had multivessel coronary artery disease including left anterior descending (LAD)coronary artery stenosis, and underwent “one-stop”hybrid coronary revascularization. “One-stop”hybrid procedure was first performed through a lower partial sternotomy at the second left intercostal space. The distal anastomosis of in situ left internal mammary artery (LIMA)to LAD graft was completed. Angiography was performed immediately to confirm patency of the LIMA graft after closure of the thorax. A 300 mg loading dose of clopidogrel was administered through a nasogastric tube after confirmation of LIMA graft patency. Intravenous unfractionated heparin was administered to obtain an activated clotting time of greater than 250 s. Then percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)was performed on the non-LAD lesions. Results All the patients underwent“one-stop”hybrid coronary revascularization including grafted LIMA to LAD,and one hundred and ninety one drug eluting stents and three bare metal stents were used for other non-LAD lesions. No death event occurred during surgery and in hospital. All the patients were followed up for a mean duration of 1.5 years. There was no myocardial infarction, neurologic event or death occurred during follow-up except one patient with stent stenosis who was treated by PCI. Conclusion “One-stop” hybrid coronary revascularization is a feasible and safe alternative for patients with multivessel coronary artery disease.
Objective To summarize the experiences of surgical intervention for tetralogy of Fallot(TOF) in early infancy and to discuss the relevant issues about primary treatment procedures in the period. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical operative information of 21 patients in their early infancy (less than 6 months) with TOF treated in Children’s Hospital of Shanghai from June 2008 to August 2010. There were 14 males and 7 females with a mean age of 4.86±1.15 months and a mean body weight of 6.84±1.33 kg. All patients were diagnosed by heart color Doppler ultrasound. Four patients underwent CT or magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) or right heart catheter arteriography examination. The McGoon ratio was 1.86±0.41 and the pulmonary artery index(PAI) was 142.54±59.46 mm2/m2. The ventricular septal defect (VSD) was closed with autologous pericardium using continuous sutures through right atrium (19 cases) or right ventricle (2 cases). Transannular repair was performed when pulmonary valve annulus was one standard deviation less than the normal Z value (18 cases). If the annulus diameter approached or reached the normal Z value, the valve annulus was preserved and pericardium was used to enlarge the right ventricular outflow tract(RVOT) and the main pulmonary artery (3 cases). Results There was one death due to heart failure on the 15th day after operation, one patient had acute laryngeal edema after removal of endotracheal intubation on the second day after operation, and received reintubation and assisted ventilation for three days. All the other patients recovered well. Eighteen patients were followed up for 9.89±6.47 months. Their heart functions were in modified Ross class I or II. Echocardiography during the followup showed that RVOT pressure was 21.20±12.27 mm Hg (8.10-45.14 mm Hg); pulmonary incompetence (PI) was mild in 10 cases, moderate in 5 cases, and no severe PI occurred. Two cases of residual VSD were spontaneously closed. Compared with the early postoperative period, RVOT pressure and PI levels were not significantly different (Pgt;0.05). Right heart function was good.onclusion Early complete repair of TOF yields good surgical results. Transatrial repair of intracardiac pathology and retaining pulmonary valve annulus can be safely applied to yield good postoperative right ventricular function.
Abstract:Objective To summarize the experiences of single stage repair of interrupted aortic arch (IAA) associated with cardiac anomalies. Methods From Jan. 2000 to Dec. 2005, 48 patients admited in hospital and 35 patients were operated, the mean age at operation was 1.1 years. The associated anomalies included 23 cases of ventricular septal defect, 2 cases of transposition of great arteries, 3 cases of aortopulmonary window with aortic origin of right pulmonary artery, 2 cases of truncus arteriosus, 2 cases of double outlet right ventricle, 2 cases of stenotic fifth arch and 1 case of aberrant origin of right subclavian artery with mild hypoplastic decending aorta. Among them, 34 patients underwent single stage repair and 1 kid underwent palliative correction. Results There were 4 surgical deaths. The sequelae included one diaphragm paralysis and one 3rd degree of atrioventricular block. Only 5 kids recurred mild stenosis of aortic arch anastomosis and 2 death occurred during 3 months to 4 years of follow-up. Conclusion Though early surgical mortality for primary single stage repair is now relatively low, if appropriate interventions has been accomplished during perioperative period, but outcomes of IAA remain of concern, especially in patients with associated lesions.
