Abstract Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and long-term prognosis of coronary intervention in patients with premature coronary artery disease (PCAD) between different genders. Methods From January 2013 to December 2013, 4 744 patients diagnosed as PCAD with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in our hospital were enrolled. The general clinical data, laboratory results and interventional treatment data of all patients were collected, and the occurrence of major adverse cardio-cerebrovascular events (MACCE) within 2 years after PCI was followed up. Results Of the 4 744 patients undergoing PCI, 3 390 (71.5%) were males and 1 354 (28.5%) were females. The 2-year follow-up results showed that the incidence of BARC grade 1 hemorrhage in female patients was significantly higher than that in male patients (6.9% vs. 3.7%; P<0.001); however, there was no significant difference in the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), all-cause death, cardiac death, recurrent myocardial infarction, revascularization (target vessel revascularization and target lesion revascularization), stent thrombosis, stroke and BARC grade 2–5 hemorrhage between the two groups (P>0.05). Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that gender was an independent risk factor for BARC grade 1 bleeding events in PCAD patients (HR=2.180, 95% CI: 1.392–3.416, P<0.001), but it was not an independent risk factor for MACCE and BARC grade 2–5 bleeding. Hyperlipidemia, preoperative SYNTAX score, multivessel lesions and NSTE-ACS were the independent risk factors for MACCE in PCAD patients with PCI (HR=1.289, 95% CI: 1.052–1.580, P=0.014; HR=1.030, 95% CI: 1.019–1.042, P<0.001; HR=1.758, 95% CI: 1.365–2.264, P<0.001; HR=1.264, 95% CI: 1.040–1.537, P=0.019); gender, hyperlipidemia, anticoagulant drugs like low molecular weight heparin or sulfonate were the independent risk factors for bleeding events (HR=1.579,95% CI 1.085–2. 297, P=0.017; HR=1.305, 95% CI 1.005–1.695, P=0.046; HR=1.321, 95% CI 1.002–1.741, P=0.048; HR=1.659, 95% CI 1.198–2.298, P=0.002). Conclusion The incidence of minor bleeding in women with PCAD is significantly higher than that in men; After adjusting for various risk factors, gender is an independent risk factor for minor bleeding events, but not an independent risk factor for MACCE in patients with PCAD.

: Potential sex-related differences in the periprocedural and long-term postprocedural outcomes of coronary angioplasty in patients with stable coronary artery disease have been studied thoroughly over the last few decades, to determine whether female sex should be regarded as an independent risk factor that affects clinical outcomes. Based on a significant number of observational studies and meta-analyses, sex has not yet emerged as an independent risk factor for either mortality or major cardiac and cerebrovascular events, despite the fact that in the early 1980s, for several reasons, female sex was associated with unfavourable outcomes. Therefore, it remains debatable whether female sex should be considered as an independent risk factor for periprocedural and long-term bleeding events. The pharmacological and technological advancements that support current coronary angioplasty procedures, as well as the non-delayed treatment of coronary artery disease in females have certainly lessened the outcome differences between the two sexes. However, females show fluctuations in blood coagulability through their lifetime and higher prevalence of bleeding episodes associated with the antithrombotic treatment, following transcatheter coronary reperfusion interventions. In conclusion, the clinical results of percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with stable coronary artery disease, during the periprocedural and long-term postprocedural periods, appear to show no significant differences between the two sexes, except for bleeding rates, which seem to be higher in females, a difference that mandates further systematic research.

Introduction Knowledge of risk factors for rebleeding after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage can help tailoring ultra-early aneurysm treatment. Previous studies have identified aneurysm size and various patient-related risk factors for early (≤24 h) rebleeding, but it remains unknown if aneurysm configuration is also a risk factor. We investigated whether irregular shape, aspect- and bottleneck ratio of the aneurysm are independent risk factors for early rebleeding after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage. Patients and methods From a prospectively collected institutional database, we investigated data from consecutive aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage patients who were admitted ≤24 h after onset between December 2009 and January 2015. The admission computed tomographic angiogram was used to assess aneurysm size and configuration. With Cox regression, we calculated stepwise-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for irregular shape, aspect ratio ≥1.6 mm and bottleneck ratio ≥1.6 mm. Results Of 409 included patients, 34 (8%) patients had in-hospital rebleeding ≤24 h after ictus. Irregular shape was an independent risk factor for rebleeding (HR: 3.9, 95% CI: 1.3–11.3) after adjustment for age, sex, PAASH score, aneurysm location, aneurysm size and aspect- and bottleneck ratio. Aspect ratio ≥1.6 mm (HR: 2.3, 95% CI: 0.8–6.5) and bottleneck ratio ≥1.6 mm (HR: 1.7, 95% CI: 0.8–3.6) were associated with an increased risk of rebleeding, but were not independent risk factors after multivariable adjustment. Conclusions Irregular shape is an independent risk factor for early rebleeding. However, since the majority of subarachnoid haemorrhage patients have an irregular aneurysm, additional risk factors have to be found for aneurysm treatment prioritisation.

BackgroundRadical or palliative surgery with subsequent adjuvant therapy is the routine treatment for stage II/III colorectal cancer(CRC) and some stage IV CRC patients. This study aimed to clarify the prognostic clinicopathological and genetic factors for these patients.MethodsFifty-five stage II-IV CRC patients undergoing surgery and adjuvant therapy were recruited, including patients without liver metastasis(5 at stage II, 21 at stage III) and with liver metastasis(29 at stage IV). Genetic alterations of the primary cancer tissues were investigated by whole exome sequencing(WES). Patients were followed up to 1652 days(median at 788 days).ResultsThe mutational landscape of primary CRC tissue of patients with or without liver metastasis was largely similar, although the mutational frequency of TRIM77 and TCF7L2 was significantly higher in patients with liver metastasis. Several main driver gene co-mutations, such as TP53-APC, APC-KRAS, APC-FRG1, and exclusive mutations, such as TP53-CREBBP, were found in patients with liver metastasis, but not in patients without liver metastasis. No significant difference was found between the two groups in aberrant pathways. If stage II-IV patients were studied altogether, relapse status, SUPT20HL1 mutations, Amp27_21q22.3 and Del8_10q23.2 were independent risk factors(P<0.05). If patients were divided into two groups by metastatic status, surgery types and Amp6_20q13.33 were independent risk factors for patients without liver metastasis(P<0.05), while TRIM77 mutations were the only independent risk factor for patients with liver metastasis(P<0.05).ConclusionsSurgery types and Amp6_20q13.33 were independent risk factors for CRC patients without liver metastasis, and TRIM77 mutations were the independent risk factor for CRC patients with liver metastasis.

Background: To investigate whether a real-time visual feedback device could improve the quality of chest compression (CC), and, if so, whether the mechanism is associated with dynamic indexes such as velocity and acceleration. Methods: A self-control trial of 2-minutes CC on a manikin by trained rescuers compared the quality of CC without or with a visual feedback device. Demographic characteristics were recorded and CC metrics for the two tests were computed. Multivariable linear regression analyses were performed to examine the impact of variables on rate of qualified chest compression (RQCC). Multivariable logistic regression was performed to determine independent risk factors for achieving qualified chest compression (QCC) in the second test. Results: A total of 159 participants (average age: 29.36±9.0 years, 80 (50.3%) men) were recruited. RQCC of the second test was significantly greater than that of the baseline test. Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that maximum compression velocity (V compression ) and maximum compression velocity (a compression ) were independent risk factors for RQCC for both tests. The mean V compression and a compression of the second test were significantly greater than those of the baseline test. However, V compression was the only independent risk factor predicting QCC achievement during the second test. ROC curve analysis showed the area under curve (AUC) was0.84,and the optimal cut-offvalue ofV compression was 39.48 cm/s. Conclusions: Increasing the V compression and a compression might improve the quality of simulated CC and should be recommended to improve QCC. Only V compression was an independent risk factor for achieving QCC during CC with a visual feedback device.

Combat casualty care has made significant advances in recent years, including administration of blood products in far-forward locations. However, recent studies have shown blood transfusion to be a significant risk factor for infection and increased resource utilization in critically injured patients. We therefore sought to investigate the incidence of blood transfusion and its association with infection and resource utilization in combat casualties. Prospective data were collected and retrospectively reviewed on 210 critically injured patients admitted to the USNS Comfort over a 7-week period during the 2003 assault phase of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Patients were stratified by age, gender, and injury severity score (ISS). Multivariate regression analyses were used to assess blood transfusion and hematocrit (HCT) as independent risk factors for infection and intensive care unit (ICU) admission controlling for age, gender, and ISS. The study cohort had a mean age of 30 ± 2 years, a mean ISS of 14 ± 3, 84 per cent were male, and 88 per cent sustained penetrating trauma. Blood transfusion was required in 44 per cent (n = 93) of the study cohort. Transfused patients had a higher ISS (18 ± 4 vs. 10 ± 3, P < 0.01), a higher pulse rate (105 ± 4 vs. 93 ± 3, P < 0.0001), and a lower admission HCT (27 ± 1 vs. 33 ± 2, P < 0.0001) compared with patients not transfused. Patients receiving blood transfusion had an increased infection rate (69% vs. 18%, P < 0.0001), ICU admission rate (52% vs. 21%, P < 0.0001), and ICU length of stay (6.7 ± 2.1 days vs. 1.4 ± 0.5 days, P < 0.0001) compared with nontransfused patients. However, there was no significant difference in mortality between transfused and nontransfused patients. Multivariate binomial regression analysis identified blood transfusion and HCT as independent risk factors for infection (P < 0.01) and blood transfusion as an independent risk factor for ICU admission (P < 0.05). Combat casualties have a high incidence of blood transfusion. Blood transfusion is an independent risk factor for infection and increased resource utilization. Therefore, consideration should be given to the use of alternative blood substitutes and recombinant human erythropoietin in the treatment and management of combat casualties.

Abstract Background: No cardiac load index (CLI) has been established for patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). We propose a simple method for calculating CLI and explore the association of CLI with CAD.Methods: We enrolled 4145 consecutive inpatients with suspected stable CAD from December 2011 to June 2017 at the Chengde Medical University Affiliated Hospital. All patients were divided into the CAD (n=2914) and the NCAD groups (n=1231) according to coronary computed tomography angiography. We retrospectively collected data and calculated the CLI values of all patients. The receiver operating characteristic diagnostic test analysis was performed with CLI≥77, CLI≥125, CLI≥171, CLI≥217, and CLI≥264, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression models were established to determine the risk factors of CAD. Results: The CLI was significantly higher in the CAD group than in the NCAD group and higher in the male than in the female subgroup (both P<0.001). CLI≥171 was the diagnostic cut-off value. The predictive power of CLI≥171 for CAD improved after considering other risk factors. CLI≥171 is a new independent risk factor for CAD, and is an independent risk factor for CAD in males and females (all P<0.001).Conclusions: Increased CLI is an independent risk factor for CAD, it may be used as a predictor for the prevalence for CAD to improve diagnosis and prevention.

Introduction. The management of a failed primary allograft remains unclear and the evidence of the effect of transplantectomy to future transplants conflicting. Aim of this study is to review the impact of failed primary graft nephrectomy on future transplants. Materials/Methods. Retrospective study of 101 patients retransplanted in a single institution. Median follow-up was 68 months. Patients were divided into two groups; G1 (n=49) was the nephrectomy group; G2 (n=52) was the graft in situ group. The patients’ and second graft survival were analysed with the Kaplan-Meier method. The patients’ and transplant characteristics were analyzed with student’s t-test. The retransplant risk factors and the risk factors for multiple transplants were obtained via a logistic regression model. Results. The odds of second graft loss post-transplantectomy were high (OR = 5.24). Demographics, HLA mismatch and first graft rejection rates were similar among the two groups and did not affect the outcome. Transplantectomy accelerated the loss of a future failing graft. Multivariate analysis showed transplantectomy as independent risk factor for second allograft loss. Transplantectomy and younger age are significant independent risk factors for future multiple transplants. Conclusion. Transplantectomy of the failed primary graft is an independent risk factor for retransplant loss and for multiple renal transplants.

AbstractObjectivesThe aim of this study was to assess the risk of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) performed in out-of-hospital settings for chest injuries in patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA).MethodsThis retrospective, observational study was conducted in an emergency critical care medical center in Japan. Non-traumatic OHCA patients transferred to the hospital from April 2013 through August 2016 were analyzed. The outcome was defined by chest injuries related to CPR, which is composite of rib fractures, sternal fractures, and pneumothoraces. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the independent risk factors for chest injuries related to CPR. The threshold of out-of-hospital CPR duration that increased risk of chest injuries was also assessed.ResultsA total of 472 patients were identified, of whom 233 patients sustained chest injuries. The multivariate logistic regression model showed that the independent risk factors for chest injuries were age and out-of-hospital CPR duration (age: AOR=1.06 [95% CI, 1.04 to 1.07]; out-of-hospital CPR duration: AOR=1.03 [95% CI, 1.01 to 1.05]). In-hospital CPR duration was not an independent risk factor for chest injuries. When the duration of out-of-hospital CPR extended over 15 minutes, the likelihood of chest injuries increased; however, this association was not statistically significant.ConclusionsLong duration of out-of-hospital CPR was an independent risk factor for chest injuries, possibly due to the difficulty of maintaining adequate quality of CPR. Further investigations to assess the efficacy of alternative CPR devices are expected in cases requiring long transportation times.TakayamaW, KoguchiH, EndoA, OtomoY.
