The diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is of great significance for the early risk classification of sudden cardiac death and the screening of family genetic diseases. This research proposed a HCM automatic detection method based on convolution neural network (CNN) model, using single-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) signal as the research object. Firstly, the R-wave peak locations of single-lead ECG signal were determined, followed by the ECG signal segmentation and resample in units of heart beats, then a CNN model was built to automatically extract the deep features in the ECG signal and perform automatic classification and HCM detection. The experimental data is derived from 108 ECG records extracted from three public databases provided by PhysioNet, the database established in this research consists of 14,459 heartbeats, and each heartbeat contains 128 sampling points. The results revealed that the optimized CNN model could effectively detect HCM, the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity were 95.98%, 98.03% and 95.79% respectively. In this research, the deep learning method was introduced for the analysis of single-lead ECG of HCM patients, which could not only overcome the technical limitations of conventional detection methods based on multi-lead ECG, but also has important application value for assisting doctor in fast and convenient large-scale HCM preliminary screening.
Objective To evaluate the clinical and follow-up results of the surgical treatment for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy associated with aortic stenosis. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of the patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy plus aortic stenosis in our hospital from February 2008 to October 2015. There were 4 males and 3 females aged 55.6 ± 7.5 years. All the patients were received concomitant aortic valvulopasty at the time of modified extended Morrow procedure. Echocardiographic data and major complications were recorded through the outpatient clinic and telephone. Results The postoperative ventricular septal thickness, left ventricular outflow tract gradient and aortic gradient were significantly lower than those in preoperation with statistical differences (P<0.05). During the mean follow-up 25.6 ± 28.2 months period, 1 patient died of cerebral hemorrhage, 1 patient was implanted a permanent pacemaker, and 1 patient had a postoperative new-onset atrial fibrillation. All patients had a satisfied prosthetic valve function and the left ventricular outflow tract gradient. The patient's symptoms and heart function significantly improved postoperatively. Conclusion For patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy associated with moderate to severe aortic stenosis, concomitant aortic valvulopasty at the time of modified extended Morrow procedure is an appropriate and effective treatment, which can significantly alleviate the clinical symptoms, and improve quality of life with a satisfied prognosis.
Objective To summarize the surgical treatment strategies and the clinical outcomes of hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) with severe mitral regurgitation. Method We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 23 patients of HOCM with severe mitral regurgitation in our hospital from January 2004 through January 2014 year. There were 14 males and 9 females, aged from 15-71(50.2±15.4) years. The preoperative left ventricular outflow tract gradient (LVOTPG) of these patients was 75-161(98.1±19.3) mm Hg. And the septal thickness was 25.8±2.8 mm. All 23 patients had at least moderate mitral regurgitation and systolic anterior motion (SAM). All of them had extend septal myectomy (extend Marrow procedure) and mitral valve repair(MVP),while 4 patients with atrial fibrillation had left atrial ablation and left atrial appendage operation. Results All patients were successfully operated. The left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient was 16-39(26.9±4.9) mm Hg when the cardiopulmonary bypass stopped and SAM phenomenon was completely eliminated. Except for 2 mitral valve patients with trace amounts of regurgitation, 1 patient with mild regurgitation, the other 20 patients of mitral regurgitation were completely corrected. All patients survived after operation and only 1 patient suffered from transient complete atrioventricular block and then back to normal sinus rhythm. A long-term follow-up from 6 months to 126 months with an average of 53.1±34.9 months showed no late postoperative death. No mitral regurgitation need reoperation. Two patients had mild reflux. Four patients were of trace reflux. The left ventricular outflow tract the maximum pressure gradient was less than 42 mm Hg. The thickness of interventricular septum dropped from preoperative 25.8±2.8 mm to postoperative 14.1±1.3 mm (P<0.001) . No recurrence was noted in the 3 patients with atrial fibrillation. And one patient still had paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Long term follow-up of the patients' symptoms disappeared or with only mild symptoms. And quality of their life improved significantly. And there was no long-term complication, reoperation, or death. Conclusions The extensive septal myectomy can completely dredge left ventricular outflow tract stenosis and eliminate SAM phenomenon. The mitral valve repair can correct mitral regurgitation. The comprehensive surgical treatment strategy can achieve a good long-term therapeutic effect.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect and safety of surgical treatment for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) with mitral regurgitation (MR) through right mini-thoracotomy.MethodsFrom January 2008 to June 2018, 54 patients with HOCM and moderate-to-severe MR underwent modified Morrow procedure and edge-to-edge mitral valvuloplasty through right mini-thoracotomy, including 31 males and 23 females, with an average age of 47.1±12.6 years. All patients had systolic anterior motion (SAM) phenomenon. Preoperative left ventricular outflow tract pressure gradient (LVOTPG) was 93.6±32.8 mm Hg, interventricular septum thickness (IVST) was 24.8±2.8 mm.ResultsSurgeries in all patients were completed successfully. No early death or interventricular septal perforation occurred. One (1.9%) patient received permanent pacemaker implantation due to the complete atrial-ventricular block. At discharge, postoperative LVOTPG (18.1±6.2 mm Hg) and IVST (14.5±2.1 mm) were significantly decreased compared with the preoperative values (P<0.05). No MR or SAM was observed in all patients. The follow-up time was 6-132 months, and during this period, no death, MR or SAM occurred. The average LVOTPG was 19.4±5.7 mm Hg, and the average IVST was 14.2±1.5 mm.ConclusionMorrow procedure and edge-to-edge mitral valvuloplasty through right mini-thoracotomy is a safe and effective method for treatment of HOCM with moderate-to-severe MR.
Sepsis is a common complication after severe trauma, infection, shock and major surgery. It has the characteristics of high morbidity, high mortality, and high hospitalization costs. Septic cardiomyopathy is one of the main causes of death in patients with sepsis. This article reviews the pathogenesis and treatment of septic cardiomyopathy. The pathogenesis includes hemodynamics and myocardial changes, mitochondrial fission, cardiomyocyte apoptosis and autophagy, calcium ion imbalance, inflammation mechanism and immune regulation mechanism. The treatment includes conventional treatment, β1 receptor blocker treatment, melatonin, serotonin 3 receptor antagonist, dexmedetomidine and traditional Chinese medicine treatment, etc., aiming to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of septic cardiomyopathy.
Immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) is a rare type of autoimmune inflammatory myopathy, which can be divided into anti-signal recognition particle antibody positive IMNM, anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase antibody positive IMNM and serum antibody negative IMNM according to different autoantibodies. The prognosis of IMNM is worse than that of most other types of myositis. At present, there are differences in the studies of prognostic factors of IMNM at home and abroad, and there is a lack of large-scale clinical studies. This article will review the prognostic factors of IMNM.
