    Objective  To evaluate the efficacy and safety of coronary revascularization hybridization(HCR) and coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) in the treatment of coronary heart disease. Methods  Databases such as MEDLINE,  EMBASE,  CNKI,  Corchrane library, combined with secondary resource,  were searched with the key words being “hybridization,  coronary artery bypass grafting,  percutaneous coronary stent implantation,  onestop coronary artery hybridization,  and staged coronary artery hybridization”. The odd ratio (odd ratio,  OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% confidence interval,  CI) were adopted to evaluate the incidence of major cardiovascular events in HCR and CABG (mortality,  incidence of stroke,  incidence of myocardial infarction,  target vascular revascularization(TVR),  major cardio cerebral vascular events (MCCVEs)  and the diference about the incidence of new atrial fibrillation and the rate of red blood cell infusion.The median difference(MD) and 95%CI were used to evaluate the difference between the length of mechanical ventilation time,  the time of ICU and the time of total hospitalization. Statistical analysis was performed by RevMan 5.2 for heterogeneity test and Meta analysis. Results  A total of 17 experiments met the criteria in the retrieved literature,  totaling 8 608 patients.  There was no significant difference between the mortality (OR=0.77, 95%CI[0.42, 1.41],  I2[0%], P=0.39); the incidence of myocardial infarction (OR=0.78, 95%CI[0.40, 1.52], I2[0%], P=0.47); the incidence of stroke (OR=0.67, 95%CI[0.34,1.33], I2[0%], P=0.26)  and the incidence of major cardio cerebral vascular events(OR=0.74, 95%CI[0.53,1.03],  I2[0%],P=0.07);  the rate of target vascular revascularization (OR=2.41, 95%CI[0.91,6.38],  I2[0%],P=0.08)  and the incidence of new atrial fibrillation(OR=0.92, 95%CI[0.70, 1.22],  I2[29%], P=0.56)   were not statistically different; The rate of cellular infusion (OR=-0.16, 95%CI[-0.22, -0.09],  I2[34%],P<0.01)  decreased,  and there were statistical differences. And,  there were significant differences between mechanical ventilation time(OR=-6.25, 95%CI[-9.01,-5.32],  I2[22%], P<0.01);  ICU time(OR=-18.58, 95%CI[-23.65, -13.52],  I2[45%], P<0.01),  and total hospitalization time (OR=-0.3, 95%CI[-0.46, -0.15], I2[6%], P<0.01),  and all the time was shortened,  which was of great statistical significance.Conclusion  It is clear that coronary artery revascularization is safe and feasible with advantages over CABG.

    Objective  To compare the difference of glucose variability between people with type 2 diabetic retinopathy and those without retinopathy in order to explore the relationship between glucose variability and type 2 diabetic retinopathy.Methods  A total of 17 studies were included to compare the glucose variability of patients with type 2 diabetic retinopathy and those without retinopathy by searching database comprehensively.RevMan5.3 software and  STATA12.0 software were adopted for the meta analysis.Results  Among the 17 studies, mean amplitude of glycemic excursion(MAGE) of the diabetic retinopathy(DR)   group was significantly higher than that of the nondiabetic retinopathy(NDR)  group (weighted mean difference[WMD] and 95%CI  2.12[1.66, 2.58], P<0.01). Of the 9 included studies,  the MAGE  of the nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) group was significantly lower than that of the proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) group(WMD and 95%CI  -1.09[-1.42,-0.77], P<0.01).  Compared with the NDR group, MAGE were significantly higher in the NPDR group (WMD and 95%CI   1.52[1.25,  1.79], P<0.01). Conclusion  From diabetic nonretinopathy group, nonproliferative retinopathy group to proliferative retinopathy group, the glucose variability presents a gradually increasing trend.

    Objective  To compare the effects of dual antiplatelet therapy(DAPT) of aspirin combined with ticagreloror clopidogrel on graft patency one year after coronary artery bypass graft surgery(CABG) in patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD). Methods  A total of 77 CABG patients in our department were included in the study. They  were randomly divided into groupA(aspirin+ticagrelor) and group B(aspirin+clopidogrel).There were 35 participants in group A and 42 in group B. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) was performed on them one year after the operation to evaluate the graft patency.Cardiovascular events, bleeding events and other adverse events were also followed up. Results  Totally seven patients were withdrawn in the followup,and 70 patients received CTA.Among them, 32 cases in group A and 38 cases in group B. The patency rate of vein bridge in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (46/51 90.2% vs 42/56 75.0%,P=0.024). And the incidence rate of minor bleeding events in group A was higher than that in group B (P=0.022). Logistic regression analysis revealed that DAPT of aspirin combined with ticagrelor can reduce the risk of vein bridge stenosis(OR=0.193, 95%CI=0.0430.861, P=0.031). Conclusion  DAPT of aspirin combined with ticagrelor after CABG can better maintain the graft patency of CKD patients without additional risk of major bleeding events.

    Objective  To explore the safety and effectiveness of patent foramen ovale(PFO) closure, and further discuss clinical significance of interventional closure of PFO.Methods  Totally 90 patients receiving PFO interventional closure in our hospital from January to July in 2019 were selected.All patients received transthoracic echocardiography (cTTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to confirm the presence of right to left shunt with PFO.The successful occlusion was immediately performed by bedside transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), and the blocking device and shunt were observed.Three months after the operation, transthoracic echocardiography (cTTE) and brain CT were performed.Results  All patients were successfully placed with the occlusive device, and transthoracic echocardiography immediately confirmed that the occlusive device was in normal position, the mitral valve and tricuspid valve function were good, no residual shunt was observed, and no intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred.After the follow-up of threemonths, headache symptoms completely disappeared in 58.9% of the patients, significantly improved in 34.4% of the patients, and the frequency of attack was significantly lower than before.The total effectiveness was 93.3%. Among the 27 patients with unilateral limb numbness and fatigue before the operation, 19 patients showed complete disappearance of limb numbness and fatigue symptoms after the operation, and eight  patients showed different degrees of remission of limb numbness and fatigue symptoms although they did not completely disappear.Before the operation, eightcases with nausea and vomiting, postoperative  symptoms completely disappeared.The positive rate of right echocardiography by transthoracic echocardiography at three  months after surgery was 5.6%(5/90).The reexamination of brain CT three months after surgery indicated that no new infarction was found in all 90 patients in this study, and the incidence of recurrent stroke was 0%.Conclusion  Interventional closure therapy for PFO can definitely relieve the clinical symptoms and pain of patients, reduce residual shuntand the risk of recurrent stroke. It is a safe and effective treatment method, which has a guiding significance for the treatment of PFO.

    Objective  To investigate the effect of lowdose etibatide combined with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on blood perfusion and cardiac function in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Methods  The patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) who underwent emergency PCI  were selected.  STEMI patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. In experimental group,  etibatide was given intravenously once (180 μg/kg) and pumped intravenously 1 μg/(kg·min); in  control group,  neither injection nor pump was given. The observation indexes included general data,  myocardial perfusion,  cardiac function and major adverse cardiac events (MACE).Results  The rate of ST fall in experimental group was better than that in control group (P<0.05). The peak intensity (PI) in experimental group were significantly higher than that in control group,  however,  the time to peak (TP) of myocardial contrast echocardiography  was lower than that in control group (P<0.05).  LVEF in  experimental group was significantly higher than that in control group in the first month after the operation,  and BNP level in experimental group was significantly lower than that in control group in the first month (P<0.05) . Conclusion  Low dose of etibatide can improve myocardial reperfusion and cardiac function in patients with acute STEMI without increasing the incidence of MACE.

    Objective  To investigate the risk factors for cognitive impairment in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods  Totally 50 ischemic stroke patients with poststroke cognitive impairment(PSCI) were enrolled as observation group, and another 50 ischemic stroke patients without PSCI were enrolled as control group. The clinical data of these two groups were compared, and the relevant factors of PSCI were analyzed. Results  Compared with the control group, patients in observation group were older; the proportion of complication with hypertension and diabetes were higher; the levels of LDLC, UA and hsCRP were higher; the rate of thalamic infarction and temporal lobe infarction were higher(all P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in education levels and stroke frequency between two groups(all P<0.05). The two or more times of  previous stroke, diabetes, high levels of LDLC and  hsCRP ,and temporal lobe infarction were risk factors for PSCI; while  middle  school or above educational  level  was  the  protective factor for PSCI. Conclusion  Ischemic stroke patients with low educational level, diabetes, previous history stroke, temporal lobe infarction, high levels of LDLC and hsCRP have higher risk for PSCI.

    Objective  To investigate prognostic factors of mechanical thrombectomy in the treatment of patients with acute aortic occlusive cerebral infarction. Methods  A retrospective analysis was made on the prognosis of 50 patients with acute aortic occlusive cerebral infarction treated with mechanical thrombectomy. According to modified Rankin Scale Score (mRS) at 90 days postoperatively,  the patients were divided into two groups,  29 patients (mRS≤2) of good prognosis group  and 21 patients (mRS≥3) of poor prognosis group. Single factor contrast was carried out on the baseline data (underlying diseases,  age,  gender,  preoperative ASPECT score and preoperative NIHSS score),  treatment status (onset to revascularization time,  responsible occlusive artery,  collateral circulation,  number of thrombectomy,  methods of vascular recanalization) and treatment results (revascularization rate,  postoperative 24 h NIHSS score,  intracranial hemorrhagic transformation,  death),  and the variables with significant differences were further analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis in order to identify independent factors that influence patient prognosis. Results  There were significant differences in combined diabetes,  preoperative NIHSS score,  collateral circulation,  postoperative 24 h NIHSS score,  responsible occlusive artery,  revascularization rate,  and intracranial hemorrhagic transformation at one week postoperatively (all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in collateral circulation,  revascularization rate,  hemorrhagic transformation at one week postoperatively and postoperative 24 h NIHSS score(all P<0.05). Conclusion  Diabetes,  preoperative NIHSS score,  collateral circulation,  responsible occlusive artery,  postoperative 24 h NIHSS score,  revascularization rate,  and intracranial hemorrhagic transformation at one week postoperatively are the factors affecting the prognosis of patients. Good compensation of collateral circulation,  high revascularization rate,  high intracranial hemorrhagic transformation at one week postoperatively and deterioration in postoperative 24 h NIHSS score are independent factors affecting the prognosis of patients.

    Objective  To observe the deep venous stenosis and occlusion caused by different indwelling time of the internal jugular venous catheters.Methods  A total of 48 patients with vascular access problems were enrolled. According to the different indwelling time of temporary catheter in internal jugular vein, the patients were divided into three groups: group one (less than onemonth), group two(13 months) and group three (more than 3 months). All patients were examined by CTA to observe the condition of deep veins and solve the problems of vascular access.Results  The incidence rate of deep venous stenosis or occlusion in three groups were 75.0%, 87.5% and 100%, respectively. The blood vessels involved the internal jugular vein, the cephalic vein and the superior vena cava. And some patients cannot reestablish the vascular access.Conclusion  When the catheter indwelling is more than one month, the vascular stenosis rate is very high. The indwelling catheter should be reduced and the indwelling time should be minimized.

    Objective  To detect the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 11(MMP11) in colorectal adenocarcinoma, explore its correlation with vascular endothelial growth factor C(VEGFC) and microlymphatic vessel density(MLVD) marked by D240.Methods  Fifty eight patients with radical resection of colorectal adenocarcinoma were collected.Neoplasm tissues were collected as observation group. Normal mucosa were collected as control group. Expressions of MMP11 and D240 in two groups were detected by immunohistochemistry method. And the expression of VEGFC was detected by Western blot method.Results   There were statistically significant differences in positive rate of MMP11 and MLVD value  between two groups. In the observation group, MMP11 and MLVD were correlated with vascular cancer thrombus, lymph node metastasis and invasive degree.The expression of MMP11  related to prognosis. Positive correlation were found between  MMP11 and MLVD,  MMP11 and VEGFC. Conclusion  The increase of MMP11 expression and MLVD  plays  an important role in the occurrence and progression of colorectal adenocarcinoma. MMP11 and VEGFC, MMP11 and MLVD had obvious positive synergistic effects. MMP11 may play a role in the tumorbiological behaviorsby promoting lymphangiogenesis.

    Objective  To investigate the expectation and actuality of decision preferences on family members of ICU patients,  and to explore influencing factors of decision control preferences.Methods  A total of 100 ICU patients' family members from a tertiary hospital in Hangzhou were investigated with general information questionnaire and Control Preference Scale. Results  The decision control preference investigation result showed that 46.0% of the relatives chose the collaborative type, 35.0% of relatives chose the passive type, and 19.0% of relatives chose the active type. There was difference between expectation and actual decision making. Statistical analysis showed that the degree of expectation was higher than that of actual decision making(χ2=14.894,P<0.05), the consistency between them was poor(Kappa=0.272), and the coincidence rate was 54.0%. Multivariate and ordered logistic regression analysis showed that main influencing factors of decision control preferences were relatives' age, education level and characters.Conclusion  About 50.0% of family members experienced discordance between their preferences and actual roles.This highlights the need for medical workers to assess  individual decision preferences before decision making in order to give individualized communication styles and implement the matched decision model.
