To investigate the effectiveness and safety of valve surgery in combination with cryoablation in the treatment of atrial fibrillation. ⋯ Valve surgery in combination with cryoablation has favorable short-term clinical effect in the treatment of heart valve disease in combination with atrial fibrillation, which is worth promotion.
-
To determine the maternal factors and neonatal outcome of pregnancy complicated by meconium stained amniotic fluid. ⋯ Thick Meconium stained amniotic fluid was associated with low APGAR score, high rate of emergency cesarean section and meconium aspiration syndrome. Anemia during pregnancy, PIH and GDM were important risk factor associated with MAS.
-
To investigate relationships between spontaneous abortion and complete blood count inflammation markers and their role in predicting spontaneous abortion. ⋯ Unlike several difficult and invasive tests, a CBC is a simple, inexpensive and easily available test. CBC inflammation markers, including WBC, N, L, NLR, PLR, and MPV, which were evaluated at the sixth gestational week, can be used for the risk assessment of spontaneous abortion in pregnancy.

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between Breast Arterial Calcification (BAC) on mammography and the 10-year fatal Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) risk by using SCORE risk system. ⋯ BAC on mammography was found to be related to the 10-year fatal CVD risk as calculated by the SCORE risk score system. Additional large-scale prospective studies are required to further assess whether BAC can be considered a useful screening tool for CVD risk prediction in women who screened for breast cancer by mammography.

To analyze the correlation between coronary artery lesion and cardiac function change among elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). ⋯ Coronary artery lesion severity of elderly patients with CHD was an important reason for left ventricular remodeling and cardiac systolic function change. Early intervention of coronary artery disease is of great significance to protect the heart function.
