The study included 57 patients who underwent endovascular treatment of cerebrovascular disease under general anesthesia. The experimental group included 29 patients who were injected with sugammadex - a selective relaxant binding agent for reversal of neuromuscular block induced by rocuronium. The comparison group included 28 patients who did not undergo decurarization (n = 13), or it was performed with neostigmine (n = 15). Acceleromyography was used to monitor the state of neuromuscular function.Result. Onset of action and duration of action of rocuronium at a dose of 0.9 mg/kg did not differ between the groups. The neuromuscular recovery time was 2.14 [1.67; 2.59] minutes after administration of sugammadex, compared with spontaneous 35.8 [31.5; 40.4] minutes and neostigmine-induced 22.1 [16.8; 27.3] minutes (p<0.001). No adverse or allergic reactions were noted after administration of the relaxant binding agent.Conclusion. Using a specific antidote sugammadex to eliminate the effect of rocuronium helps to restore neuromuscular function within 2–3 minutes and assess the neurological status of patients immediately after the endovascular treatment of cerebrovascular disease.","PeriodicalId":227108,"journal":{"name":"Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122872704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To evaluate the relationship of coronary artery calcification (CA) and morphometric parameters of local fat depots in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods. 125 patients with stable coronary artery disease aged 59±8.9 years were examined. Visualization of local fat depots, abdominal fat depots, and coronary calcification (CC) was performed using multislice computed tomography with subsequent post-processing of images on the Siemens Leonardo workstation (Germany).

Recurrent myocardial infarction remains an important health problem due to the high mortality of patients. At the same time, there is practically no data in the literature on the prevalence of this complication in the population, which makes studies carried out on the basis of long-term epidemiological programs relevant. The analysis of the “Acute Myocardial Infarction Register” (Tomsk) presented in the paper showed not only a high mortality rate of patients with recurrent infarction, but also a tendency to increase the incidence of this complication, which confirms the need to search for predictors of its occurrence.Aim. To determine the incidence of recurrent myocardial infarction (RMI) and mortality in patients with RMI in Tomsk for five years (2016–2020), to perform a clinical and anamnestic analysis of RMI episodes registered in 2019 and 2020.Methods. The study was performed on the basis of the data from the information and analytical database of the WHO program “Registry of Acute Myocardial Infarction”. In 2019–2020 1748 cases of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were registered, in 1078 men (61.7%) and 670 women (38.3%). 87 patients with RMI were identified, which accounted for 5%. In this group, there were 46 men (52.9%) and 41 (47.1%) women. The age of RMI patients was almost identical (72.2±12.7 years old in men and 72.1±11.4 years old in women).Results. 51 (58.6%) patients were hospitalized with index AMI in a specialized department, 14 (16.1%) were treated in non-core hospitals and 22 (25.3%) people died at the prehospital stage. Patients with AMI with RMI and without RMI did not differ in clinical and anamnestic parameters. Coronary ventriculography was performed in 51 (58.6%) patients with RMI, in 41 (80.4%) cases there was a multivessel lesion of the coronary bed. RMI occurred in 43 (49.4%) patients who were treated in hospital, in 22 (25.3%) – at home, after discharge. RMI was detected in 22 (25.3%) of the dead at the prehospital stage. Typical and atypical clinical manifestations of RMI occurred in 53% and 47%, respectively. Stent thrombosis (24.1%) and the lack of treatment for indexAMI (35.6%) prevailed among the causes of RMI. It was not possible to establish the cause in 27.6% of cases. An increase in the incidence of RMI was noted from 2016 to 2020. During the follow-up, the mortality rate from RMI was two times higher than that among AMI patients in general.Conclusion. There were no significant clinical, anamnestic and other differences among patients with and without RMI. The established causes of RMI are not so much causes as a consequence of some factors. This fact, combined with the high mortality rate from RMI and the trend towards an increase in the incidence of RMI, makes it necessary to search for predictors of the onset of RMI and ways to prevent them.","PeriodicalId":227108,"journal":{"name":"Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123613006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The most important goal of atrial fibrillation surgical treatment is to eliminate the arrhythmia in order to restore atrial contractility and improve their transport function.

The study of sinus rhythm predictors maintenance and recovery of atrial transport function will help to make patient selection more personified.Aim. Evaluation of atrial contractility and remodeling after the maze-3 procedure with combined interventions on the heart.Methods. The analysis of 217 combined surgical interventions was carried out, where a maze-3 was used to treat atrial fibrillation (AF). The operations were performed in our center from 2012 to 2016. Key points of the study: rhythm after surgery and echocardiographic control in the long-term follow-up in order to determine the dynamics of atrial contractility and volumes. The average follow-up period was 47 (1–100) months. 40 (18.4%) patients had paroxysmal, 38 (17.5%) persistent, 139 (64.1%) long-term persistent AF. The mean AF duration before surgery was 27.4 months (1–200 months). The indications for the maze-3 procedure were: ineffectiveness of antiarrhythmic therapy, the need to perform combined cardiac procedures. We used standard statistical research methods with one – and multivariate logistic regression.Results. In the long-term follow-up, sinus rhythm (SR) persists in 79% of patients. In the long-term follow-up, in this group of patients, the left atrial contractility was restored from 76% to 91%, while the biatrial contractility increased from 82 to 96%. Shorter AF duration before surgery was a positive predictor of SR recovery and atrial contractility (p = 0.005), while pulmonary artery pressure and patient age negatively affected these indicators (p = 0.041 and p = 0.038, respectively). The presence of SR early after surgery was not a significant predictor of AF freedom. At the same time, according to the long-term observations, patients maintaining a regular atrial heart rate had positive indicators of atrial systolic function restoration and a positive dynamics of a decrease in atrial volumes.Conclusion. SR and restoration of left atrial contractility are two interrelated goals of the maze procedure. The negative factors associated with the failure of surgical treatment of AF are increased pressure in the pulmonary artery, long-term AF before surgery, and the age of patients.","PeriodicalId":227108,"journal":{"name":"Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114620200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To study the pattern of early atherosclerotic lesions of the abdominal aortic wall and common iliac arteries in patients without clinical manifestations of critical atherosclerotic stenosis of the lower extremity arteries using paramagnetic contrast enhancement (CE-) MRI.Methods. The retrospective study included 36 patients (25 men, 11 women) who underwent MRI of the lumbar spine with CE, without signs of atherosclerosis of the lower extremities. Subsequently, 2.5 and 4 years after CE-MRI, two patients developed acute leg ischemia and required vascular surgeries. At the time of the study, both had higher levels of C-reactive protein in the blood (6.3 mg/L and 5.9 mg/L, while the other patients had <4.2 mg/L). MRI included T2 – and T1-weighted spin-echo scans (T2-w and T1-w) in the axial and sagittal planes, before and in 10-15 minutes after contrast injection. The index of enhancement (IE) of T1-w was calculated based on the ratio of mean intensities of the region of arterial wall over aorta and iliac arteries in CE-MRI and pre-contrast MRI: IE = Int.T1–w. CE / Int. T1–w pre-contrast.Results. Depending on the IE of the abdominal aortic wall in CE-MRI, patients were divided into three groups: group 1 (n = 11) with IE ≤1.05; group 2 (n = 16) with 1.05 1.15.

The COVID-19 pandemic is going on, which makes it crucial to prevent the spread of coronavirus disease. Vaccination is the only way of specific prevention of COVID-19. The SARS-CoV-2 virus is continuously evolving and new variants appear. Moreover, the effectiveness of protective immunity after vaccination tends to decrease over several months. Booster vaccination may be the solution to these problems. The booster is an extra vaccination that helps to reactivate the immunity against COVID-19. Booster doses can be homologous (the same as the primary vaccine) and heterologous (different from the primary vaccine). It is of current interest to study heterologous vaccination as the injection of different vaccines may result in a more intense immune response. Furthermore, the same vaccine may not be available at the time of booster vaccination. This review is aimed at summarizing the key research findings in the field of booster vaccination against COVID-19.","PeriodicalId":227108,"journal":{"name":"Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129250359","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in the duration of surgery (275 minutes for females and 285 minutes for males, p = 0.4), cardiopulmonary bypass (98 minutes for females and 115 minutes for males, p = 0.3), aortic clamping (80 minutes for females and 93 minutes for males, p = 0.7). Hospital mortality among the studied patients did not differ: in the female group – 2.2% (1 case) and 0 in the male one, p = 0.9. There were no significant differences in postoperative complications: sepsis (2.2% in women and 0 in men, p = 0.9), superficial wound infection (8.7% in women and 6.5% in men, p = 0.9). Acute kidney injury, stroke, pacemaker implantation, resternotomy for bleeding were not observed in any patient. Three-year overall survival was 91.8% in females and 91.6% in males, p = 0.8; three-year freedom from reoperation – 94.4% for females and 100% for males, p = 0.1.Conclusion. Ozaki operation is equally reproducible with the same hospital mortality, postoperative complications, and medium-term outcomes in both females and males.","PeriodicalId":227108,"journal":{"name":"Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases","volume":"140 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133712944","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
