    Author: Xu Jianchang,Lai Xin,Rao Panpan,Luo Junmiao,Chen Kui,Wang Xi keyword:Atrial fibrillation; Premature ventricular contraction; Wide QRS waves; Aberrant ventricular conduc- tion; Quantitative indicators
    Objective To analyze the clinical value of quantitative indicators related to wide QRS wave ( pre / syn-rhythmic interval,quasi compensatory interval / pre interval,quasi compensatory interval / synrhythmic interval) in the differen-tiation of atrial fibrillation ( AF) with wide QRS wave ( AF with ventricular premature beats and ventricular differential trans-
    mission) . Methods From January 2020 to June 2022,113 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in the Department of Cardiology,People's Hospital of Wuhan University were selected for dynamic electrocardiogram,including 80 patients with at-rial fibrillation and ventricular premature beats ( atrial premature group) and 33 patients with atrial fibrillation and ventricular
    differential transmission ( atrial differential group ) . The distribution characteristics and quantitative indicators of the two groups of traditional identification indicators were compared,and the ROC curve was drawn to evaluate the clinical value of quantitative indicators in the identification of atrial fibrillation and wide QRS wave. Results There was no significant differ-
    ence between the two groups in terms of gender,age,smoking history,drinking history,hypertension,coronary heart disease and diabetes ( P > 0. 05) . The prevalence of heart failure in the atrial premature beats group was higher than that in the atrial arrhythmias group ( χ2 / P = 3. 935 /0. 047) . In the traditional identification indicators,the association phenomenon of the atrial premature group,the QRS wave duration ≤ 140 ms,the proportion of the phase 3 wave of the V1 lead QRS form is lower than Chin J Diffic and Compl Cas,March 2023,Vol. 22,No. 3that of the atrial poor group,the R wave or qR or R of the V1 lead is greater than r,or the deepest rS is greater than 60 ms,the QRS wave of the aVR lead has a sudden setback or a slow decline or a large R,the aVR lead Vi / Vt ≥ 1,and the propor-tion of the electric axis in the unmanned area is higher than that of the atrial poor group( χ2 / P = 15. 061 / < 0. 001,48. 035 / <0. 001,29. 697 / < 0. 001,31. 926 / < 0. 001,61. 464 / < 0. 001,45. 286 / < 0. 001,4. 034 /0. 045) . Among the quantitative indi-cators,the ratio of quasi-compensation interval / synrhythmic interval and quasi-compensation interval / pre-interval in the atrialpremature group was higher than that in the atrial differential group ( t / P = 9. 165 / < 0. 001,29. 015 / < 0. 001) ,while the ra-tio of pre-interval / synrhythmic interval was lower than that in the atrial differential group ( t / P = 18. 907 / < 0. 001) . The ROCcurve showed that the AUC for distinguishing atrial fibrillation with wide QRS wave was 0. 865,0. 688,0. 934 and 0. 944 re-spectively in the pre-interval / synrhythmic period,quasi-compensational interval / synrhythmic period,quasi-compensational in-terval / synrhythmic period and the combination of the three,and the combined predictive value of the three was higher than thesingle quantitative index ( Z / P = 7. 796 / < 0. 001,12. 633 / < 0. 001,3. 061 /0. 002) . Conclusion The combination of the three quantitative indicators and the quasi-compensation interval / pre-interval have good diagnostic value,which can provide an important reference for the differentiation of atrial fibrillation with ventricular premature and ventricular differential transmis-sion.

    Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of serum histone deacetylase 2( HDAC2) ,secretory curl associated protein 2 ( SFRP2) and ventricular remodeling in elderly patients with chronicheart fail-ure ( CHF) . Methods One hundred and seventeen elderly patients with CHF diagnosedand treated by the First Departmentof Cardiology of Baoji People's Hospital from January 2021 to June 2022 were selected as the CHF group. According to the classification of cardiac function,they were divided into 47 cases of grade II,38 cases of grade III,and 32 cases of grade IV; 120 healthy people were selected as the healthy control group. The levels of serum HDAC2 and SFRP2 were detected by ELISA,and the indexes related to cardiac function ( left atrial diameter ( LAD ) ,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter( LVEDD) ,left ventricular mass index ( LVMI) ,left ventricular ejection fraction ( LVEF) ,and left ventricular remodeling
    index ( LVRI) ) were examined by echocardiography The diagnostic value of SFRP2 for CHF. Results The serum levels of HDAC2 and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide ( NT-proBNP) in CHF group were significantly higher than those in healthy control group,and the level of SFRP2 was significantly lower than that in healthy control group ( t( Z) / P = 14. 476 / <Chin J Diffic and Compl Cas,March 2023,Vol. 22,No. 30. 001,17. 465 / < 0. 001,23. 903 / < 0. 001) ; The serum HDAC2 level was compared with Grade II < Grade III < Grade IV ( F / P = 54. 632 / < 0. 001) ,and the serum SFRP2 level was compared with Grade II > Grade III > Grade IV ( F / P = 78. 503 / < 0. 001) . LAD,LVEDD and LVMI in CHF group were significantly higher than those in healthy control group,and
    LVEF and LVRI were significantly lower than those in healthy control group ( t / P = 15. 221 / < 0. 001,14. 824 / < 0. 001,9. 728 / < 0. 001,20. 848 / < 0. 001,8. 335 / < 0. 001) ;Compared with LAD,LVEDD and LVMI,Level II < Level III < Lev-el IV ( F / P = 71. 571 / < 0. 001,45. 980 / < 0. 001,16. 697 / < 0. 001) ,LVEF and LVRI,Level II > Level III > Level
    IV ( F / P = 101. 017 / < 0. 001,16. 544 / < 0. 001) . Pearson analysis showed that serum HDAC2 was positively correlated with LAD,LVEDD,LVMI and NT-proBNP ( P < 0. 01) ,and negatively correlated with LVEF and LVRI ( P < 0. 01) ; Serum SFRP2 was negatively correlated with LAD,LVEDD,LVMI and NT-proBNP ( P < 0. 01 ) ,and positively correlated with LVEF and LVRI ( P < 0. 01) . The ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve ( AUC) of serum HDAC2,SFRP2 and their combined prediction of CHF were 0. 827,0. 865 and 0. 931,respectively. The combined prediction efficiency of the two was higher than that of independent detection ( Z / P = 3. 258 /0. 001,2. 286 /0. 022) . Conclusion The increase of serum HDAC2 level and the decrease of SFRP2 level in patients with CHF are related to ventricular remodeling,which can be used as a clinical auxiliary index to evaluate the condition of patients with CHF.

    17-5p in serum and left ventricular remodeling ( LVR) and prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction ( AMI) .
    Methods 133 patients with AMI were selected from the Coronary Heart Disease Center of the Department of Cardiology,Bei-jing Anzhen Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from January to August 2021. According to the left ventricularend-systolic volume ( LVESV) at the follow-up of 6 months,they were divided into LVR group ( 51 cases) and non-LVRgroup ( 82 cases) ,and were divided into poor prognosis group ( 44 cases) and good prognosis group ( 89 cases) according towhether major adverse cardiovascular events occurred at the time of 6 months. The expression levels of serum miR-208a andmiR-17-5p were detected by qPCR. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter ( LVEDD) ,end-diastolic ventricular septalthickness ( IVST) ,left ventricular posterior wall thickness ( LVPWT) ,left ventricular mass index ( LVMI) and LVESV wereexamined by echocardiography. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the expression ofmiR-208a and miR-17-5p in serum of patients with LVR and LVESV at the time of diagnosis,multivariate logistic regressio Chin J Diffic and Compl Cas,March 2023,Vol. 22,No. 3 analysis was used to analyze the factors affecting the poor prognosis of patients with AMI,and the working characteristic curve( ROC) of subjects was used to analyze the predictive value of the expression of miR-208a and miR-17-5p in serum on the poorprognosis of patients with AMI. Results The expression levels of serum miR-208a and miR-17-5p in LVR group were higherthan those in non-LVR group ( t / Z = 7. 432,10. 964,P < 0. 001) . LVEDD,IVST,LVPWT,LVMI and LVESV in LVRgroup were higher than those in non-LVR group ( t / Z = 11. 774,8. 611,6. 416,9. 676,5. 336,P < 0. 001) . The expressionof miR-208a and miR-17-5p in the poor prognosis group was higher than that in the good prognosis group ( t / Z = 5. 270,5.376,P < 0. 001) . Spearman correlation analysis showed that the expression of miR-208a and miR-17-5p in serum of LVRgroup was positively correlated with LVESV at the time of diagnosis ( r s = 0. 868,0. 735,P < 0. 001) . Multivariate logistic re-gression analysis showed that older age,Killip grade ≥ III,and miR-208a,miR-17-5p elevation were independent risk factorsfor poor prognosis of AMI patients [OR ( 95% CI) = 1. 058 ( 1. 005 - 1. 114) ,4. 984 ( 1. 564 - 15. 880) ,1. 051 ( 1. 007 -1. 097) ,1. 098 ( 1. 027 - 1. 175) ],and LVEF elevation was its independent protective factor [OR ( 95% CI) = 0. 932 ( 0. 892 - 0. 975) ]. The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of serum miR-208a,miR-17-5p and their com- bination to predict the poor prognosis of patients with AMI were 0. 781,0. 795 and 0. 866,respectively. The value of their combination prediction was higher than the single index ( Z / P = 2. 102 /0. 025,2. 511 /0. 014) . Conclusion The increased expression of miR-208a and miR-17-5p in serum of patients with AMI is related to LVR and poor prognosis,and can be used as an auxiliary predictor of poor prognosis in patients with AMI.
