Objective:To evaluate the effect of novel erythrocyte preservation solution on the quality of erythrocytes in stored blood of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) rats.Methods:Forty SPF male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 180-220 g, were used in this study. Ten rats randomly selected served as conventional erythrocyte preservation solution group (group A). T2DM model was prepared in the remaining 30 rats. Twenty T2DM rats were divided into 2 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table method: T2DM conventional erythrocyte preservation solution control group (group C) and T2DM novel erythrocyte preservation solution observation group (group Y). Erythrocyte preservation solution was prepared to simulate the preoperative autologous blood donation process, and blood was collected from the tail vein to isolate the red blood cells, and then the corresponding preservation solution was added. Immediately after blood collection (T 0) and at 7, 14 and 21 days of preservation (T 1-3), the morphological structure of erythrocytes was observed with a light microscope, and the concentrations of 2, 3-diphosphoglycerate (2, 3-DPG) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were also determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at T 0-T 3 and 28 days of preservation (T 4). PKH26 was used to label the erythrocytes stored in vitro for 28 days, and then the erythrocytes were transfused back into rats. The survival rate of erythrocytes was detected by flow cytometry at 1, 7, 13 and 18 h after retransfusion. Results:The erythrocyte damage was aggravated at different time points of preservation in group C when compared with group A. Compared with group C, the damage to erythrocytes was significantly alleviated at different time points of preservation in group Y. Compared with group A, the concentration of 2, 3-DPG in erythrocytes was significantly decreased at T 0 and T 2-T 4, the concentration of ROS was increased at T 0-T 4, and the survival rate of erythrocytes was decreased at 1, 7 and 18 h after retransfusion in group C ( P<0.05). Compared with group C, the concentration of 2, 3-DPG in erythrocytes was significantly increased at T 0-T 4, the content of ROS was decreased at T 1, T 3 and T 4, and the survival rate of erythrocytes was increased at 1, 7 and 18 h after retransfusion in group Y ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The novel erythrocyte preservation solution can improve the quality of stored erythrocytes and increase the survival rate of erythrocytes in vivo after retransfusion in T2DM rats.

AIM: To observe the effect of RBC preservation solution with sodium pyruvate on the morphology, structure and function of RBC stored in vitro in type 2 diabetes rats. METHODS: Thirty SPF male SD rats, were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=10): non-T2DM conventional RBC preservation solution (group A), T2DM conventional RBC preservation solution (group B) and T2DM sodium pyruvate RBC preservation solution (group C). The leukoreduced RBC from the tail vein and stored for 0 d (T0), 7 d (T1), 14 d (T2), 21 d (T3) and 28 d (T4) to detect the morphology, structure and the contents of 2, 3-DPG, reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA) and lactic acid (LA) of RBC in group A, B and C. The RBC stored for 14 days in vitro were labeled with PKH26, and its survival rate were tested in vivo at 1, 4, 10 and 16 hours after intravenous infusion. RESULTS: At T0, the RBC morphology of group A was intact, which was better than that of group B and group C. With the extension of storage time, the morphology of RBC in each group gradually transformed into a spindle-spherical shape. Compared with group A, the incidence of acanthocytes in group B and group C was higher, and the incidence of acanthocytes in group C was lower than that in group B. Compared with group A, the content of 2, 3-DPG in group B and group C decreased, while ROS and MDA increased at different time points (P<0.05). The content of 2,3-DPG in group C was higher than that in group B (P<0.05), and the contents of ROS and MDA were lower than those in group B (P<0.05). LA content in group B was higher than that in group A and group C (P<0.05). At T2-T4, the LA content in group C was lower than that in group A (P<0.05). The survival rate of RBC in group A was higher than that in group B and C, and the survival rate of RBC in group B was lower than that in group C (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Sodium pyruvate added RBC preservation solution has a certain protective effect on RBC stored in vitro in type 2 diabetic rats, and its mechanism may be related to its antioxidant effect.

@#Objective To evaluate the data of preoperative aortic root CT angiography (CTA), compare it with two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography and investigate the correlation of the two measurements with the actual intraoperative measurement data. Methods Clinical data of 53 patients with aortic valve diseases who underwent aortic valve repair in our hospital from January 2018 to August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 38 males and 15 females with an average age of 42.9±18.3 years ranging from 10 to 77 years. Preoperative two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and aortic root CTA measurements were collected, including aortic valve annulus (AVA), aortic sinus (Sinus) and sino-tubular junction (STJ). In comparison with the intraoperative measurements during the aortic valve repair surgery, the consistency analysis was performed. Results Both the preoperative echocardiography AVA measurements and the CT AVA measurements were positively correlated with the intraoperative AVA measurements (P<0.001). Compared with the echocardiography AVA data [correlation coefficient (ρ)=0.74, mean squared error (MSE)=12.78], the CT AVA data were more accurate and consistent with the intraoperative AVA measurements (ρ=0.95, MSE=2.72). CT AVA data had a higher correlation coefficient with the intraoperative measurements, compared to that of the echocardiography AVA data (P<0.001). Conclusion In comparison with two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography, preoperative morphological evaluation of aortic root CTA is more consistent with the actual intraoperative measurements during aortic valve repair surgery.

@#Objective To evaluate the short and mid-term outcomes of valve repair in patients with insufficient bicuspid aortic valves (BAV). Methods The clinical data of 27 consecutive patients with insufficient BAV undergoing valve repair in Shanghai Chest Hospital from September 2016 to January 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 24 males and 3 females with a mean age of 38.5±14.6 years (range: 20-68 years). BAV of all patients was type 1 in Seviers' classification. There were 23 patients with left-right fusion and 4 patients with right-noncoronary fusion. There was aortic regurgitation in the patients measured by the echocardiogram, including moderate regurgitation in 3 patients, moderate-severe in 18 patients, and severe in 6 patients. The diameter of aortic annular base was 27.9±3.4 mm, and the largest diameter of aortic sinus was 39.9±7.6 mm. Left ventricular end diastolic diameter was 62.7±6.5 mm, and the volume was 197.9±53.6 mL. Results All 27 patients completed the follow-up, and the mean time was 24.2±12.5 months (range: 12-51 months). No patient died or required aortic valve-related reoperation during the follow-up. The cardiac function of the patients significantly improved postoperatively (P<0.05). By echocardiography, 11 patients had no aortic regurgitation, 13 had mild aortic regurgitation, and 3 had moderate aortic regurgitation, and no patient had severe aortic regurgitation. Postoperative left ventricular end diastolic diameter and volume decreased, compared to preoperative ones (P<0.05). Conclusion In patients with insufficient BAV, valve repair is safe and effective, and has excellent short and mid-term outcomes.

Objective To investigate the preliminary value of mitral annular displacement (MAD) with two-dimensional speckle tracking in evaluating left ventricular systolic function. Methods Forty-nine patients with dilated cardiomyopathy, aged 51±14 years (DCM group), and 43 age-matched (46±14 years) normal subjects (control group) were enrolled in this study. Two-dimensional and real-time three-dimensional (RT3D) imaging were obtained all at the apical four-chamber view. The parameters of MAD and RT3D-LVEF were obtained using off-line QLAB software. Results Compared with control group, MAD reduced significantly in DCM group (P＜0.01). The parameters of MAD correlated positively with LVEF (P＜0.01). The intra- and inter-observer variabilities for measurement of MAD were low. When one point was placed at the chest wall, the ratio of long axis shortening correlated best with LVEF among all the data of MAD. Conclusion Based on two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging, MAD is a rapid and reproducible method of determining LV global systolic function, may even replace LVEF in the future.
