@#Objective To provide experimental data and theoretical support for further studying the maturity of cardiac patches in other in vitro experiments and the safety in other in vivo animal experiments, through standard chemically defined and small molecule-based induction protocol (CDM3) for promoting the differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) into myocardium, and preliminarily preparing cardiac patches. Methods After resuscitation, culture and identification of hiPSCs, they were inoculated on the matrigel-coated polycaprolactone (PCL). After 24 hours, the cell growth was observed by DAPI fluorescence under a fluorescence microscope, and the stemness of hiPSCs was identified by OCT4 fluorescence. After fixation, electron microscope scanning was performed to observe the cell morphology on the surface of the patch. On the 1st, 3rd, 5th, and 7th days of culture, the cell viability was determined by CCK-8 method, and the growth curve was drawn to observe the cell growth and proliferation. After co-cultured with matrigel-coated PCL for 24 hours, hiPSCs were divided into a control group and a CDM3 group, and continued to culture for 6 days. On the 8th day, the cell growth was observed by DAPI fluorescence under a fluorescence microscope, and hiPSCs stemness was identified by OCT4 fluorescence, and cTnT and α-actin for cardiomyocyte marker identification. Results Immunofluorescence of hiPSCs co-cultured with matrigel-coated PCL for 24 hours showed that OCT4 emitted green fluorescence, and hiPSCs remained stemness on matrigel-coated PCL scaffolds. DAPI emitted blue fluorescence: cells grew clonally with uniform cell morphology. Scanning electron microscope showed that hiPSCs adhered and grew on matrigel-coated PCL, the cell outline was clearly visible, and the morphology was normal. The cell viability assay by CCK-8 method showed that hiPSCs proliferated and grew on PCL scaffolds coated with matrigel. After 6 days of culture in the control group and the CDM3 group, immunofluorescence showed that the hiPSCs in the control group highly expressed the stem cell stemness marker OCT4, but did not express the cardiac markers cTnT and α-actin. The CDM3 group obviously expressed the cardiac markers cTnT and α-actin, but did not express the stem cell stemness marker OCT4. Conclusion hiPSCs can proliferate and grow on matrigel-coated PCL. Under the influence of CDM3, hiPSCs can be differentiated into cardiomyocyte-like cells, and the preliminary preparation of cardiac patch can provide a better treatment method for further clinical treatment of cardiac infarction.

@# Objective To analyze the efficacy of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) in elderly patients with coronary artery disease complicated with moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation. Methods The clinical data of patients aged≥70 years with coronary artery disease complicated with moderate mitral regurgitation, and undergoing OPCABG from January 2009 to January 2020 in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The echocardiographic indicators of the patients were compared preoperatively, postoperatively before discharge and during the follow-up. Results Finally 239 patients were enrolled. There were 136 males and 103 females, aged 74.1±3.2 years. Before postoperative discharge, 49 (20.5%) patients had no mitral regurgitation, 144 (60.3%) mild regurgitation, 46 (19.2%) moderate regurgitation, and 0 severe regurgitation. The area of mitral regurgitation was significantly improved (2.5±1.8 cm2 vs. 5.6±1.0 cm2, P<0.001). There were 10 (4.2%) patients of hospital death, 23 (9.6%) of low cardiac output, 3 (1.3%) of myocardial infarction, and 8 (3.3%) of nervous system injury after operation. As a result, 208 (90.8%) patients were followed up and the mean follow-up time was 3.4 years (range 1-9 years). The cumulative survival rates at postoperative 2, 4, 6, and 8 years were 95.8%, 88.0%, 78.4%, and 73.1%, respectively. Postoperative follow-up showed significant improvements compared with those before surgery in the area of mitral regurgitation, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end-diastolic and left ventricular end-systolic diameters (all P<0.05). Duirng the follow-up, the major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events were all cause death in 22 (10.6%) patients, including cardiac death in 17 (8.2%) patients, myocardial infarction in 7 (3.4%) patients, heart failure in 24 (11.5%) patients, cerebrovascular events in 11 (5.3%) patients, re-hospitalization due to heart disease in 23 (11.1%) patients, and none of the patients with myocardial infarction were revascularized. Conclusion The mid- and long-term outcomes of OPCABG in the treatment for elderly patients with coronary artery disease complicated with moderate ischemic mitral regurgitation is good.

Objective:To analysis the risk factors of early death and long-term outcomes of myocardial infarction complicated with ventricular septal rupture.Methods:A total of 135 patients with myocardial infarction complicated with ventricular septal rupture in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2008 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the survival or death within 30 days after ventricular septal rupture, the patients were divided into the early survival group(n=71)and the early death group(n=64). The clinical characteristics of the two groups were observed, and the risk factors for early death group were analyzed.The long-term outcomes of the surgery group(n=69)and the non-surgery group(n=66)was analyzed.Results:The early mortality rate of patients with myocardial infarction complicated with ventricular septal rupture was 47.4%(64/135). Univariate analysis showed that age, sex, white blood cell count, platelet count, C-reactive protein level, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, abnormal liver function, pulmonary infection, no surgery repair and Killip grade ≥3 were associated with early death as compared with the early survival group(all P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that no surgery repair( OR=16.103, 95% CI: 4.400-58.930, P<0.001)and Killip≥3 grade( OR=9.014, 95% CI: 2.506-32.428, P=0.001)and abnormal liver function( OR=5.171, 95% CI: 1.388-19.264, P=0.014)were independent risk factors for early death in patients with myocardial infarction complicated with ventricular septal rupture.During follow-up of 1.0 to 11.8(median 3.2)years, the 2-year and 10-year cumulative survival rates were significantly higher in the surgery group than in the non-surgery group(76.7% vs.16.7%, P<0.001; 73.1% vs.16.7%, P<0.001). Conclusions:No surgical repair, Killip grade ≥3 and abnormal liver function are independent risk factors for early death in patients with myocardial infarction complicated with ventricular septal rupture.The long-term outcomes of surgical treatment for myocardial infarction complicated with ventricular septal rupture is good.
摘要
Microenvironment has a major impact on stem-cell differentiation. Stem-cell differentiation achieved by controlling the microenvironment is more similar to physiological characteristic than the traditional chemical induction, which will undoubtedly have a broader clinical application prospect. The impact of microenvironment on stem cell to cardiomyocyte differentiation is reviewed in this paper.

Objective Evaluate the clinical outcomes of redo coronary revascularization performed with CABG techniques. Methods During the past 10 years, 51 patients (2.5% in the patients who underwent CABG and OPCABG) received redo coronary revascularization in our hospital. The period between the first and the redo surgeries was ( 15.1±5.8)years. Two different procedures were performed with or without cardiopulmonary bypass for the redo CABG: off-pump procedure (OPCABG) in 10 patients and on-pump procedure (CABG) in 41 patients. Two types of surgical approaches were used: me-dian sternotomy in 43 patients and left thoracotomy in 8 patients. Results Respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation occurred in 3 of the 51 patients after the operation, as compared with none in the patients who underwent OPCABG. The mean duration treated in the ICU was (2.2±0.7 ) days and that of hospital admission was( 9.2±2.4) days. Two patients (3.9%)died in hospital, one ease was in the off-pump group and the other was in the on-pump group. The causes of death were thought to be acute myocardial infarction with low output syndrome in 1 case and severe respiratory failure in the other. Complications occurred in 11 patients, including re-thoracotomy for hemostasis in 1 patient, respiratory failure in 3 patients and other complications 7. Postoperative EF was 0.60±0. 06. Complete revascularization was achieved in 44 patients, 6 patients in the offpump group and 38 patients in the on-pump group. Partial revascularization was observed in the additional 7 patients. Conclusion Redo CABG performed with or without cardiopuimonary bypass may provide favorable effects with acceptable safety profile and complete revascularization is achievable.
