The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and necessity of antiplatelet therapy on patients with Stanford Type B aortic dissection （TBAD） who underwent endovascular aortic repair （EVAR）. Methods： The present study retrospectively analyzed 388 patients with TBAD who underwent EVAR and coronary angiography. The primary outcomes were hemorrhage, death, endoleak, recurrent dissection, myocardial infarction, and cerebral infarction in patients with and without aspirin antiplatelet therapy at 1 month and 12 months. Results： Of those 388 patients, 139 （35.8%） patients were treated with aspirin and 249 （64.2%） patients were not treated with aspirin. Patients in the aspirin group were elderly （57.0 ± 10.3 years vs. 52.5 ± 11.9 years, respectively, χ2 = 3.812, P 〈 0.001） and had more hypertension （92.1% vs. 83.9%, respectively, χ2 = 5.191, P = 0.023） and diabetes （7.2% vs. 2.8%, respectively, χ2 = 4.090, P = 0.043） than in the no-aspirin group. Twelve patients （aspirin group vs. no-aspirin group; 3.6% vs. 2.8%, respectively, χ2 = 0.184, P = 0.668） died at 1-month follow-up, while the number was 18 （4.6% vs. 5.0%, respectively, χ2 = 0.027, P = 0.870） at 12-month follow-up. Hemorrhage occurred in 1 patient （Bleeding Academic Research Consortium [BARC] Type 2） of the aspirin group, and 3 patients （1 BARC Type 2 and 2 BARC Type 5） in the no-aspirin group at 1-month follow-up （ χ2 = 0.005, P = 0.944）. New hemorrhage occurred in five patients in the no-aspirin group at 12-month follow-up. Three patients in the aspirin group while five patients in the no-aspirin group had recurrent dissection for endoleak at 1-month follow-up （2.3% vs. 2.2%, respectively, χ2 = 0.074, P = 0.816）. Four patients had new dissection in the no-aspirin group at 12-month follow-up �展开更多

However, the mechanism of the effects of XZK on athero-sclerosis (AS) in humans has been reported less frequently. In the present study, we investigated the impact of XZK on lipoprotein subfractions, oxidized LDL (oxLDL), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Methods: From October 2015 to July 2016, 40 subjects were enrolled in this study. Of them, 20 subjects with dyslipidemia received XZK 1200 mg/day for 8 weeks (XZK group); 20 additional healthy subjects who did not receive therapy acted as controls. The plasma lipoprotein subfractions, oxLDL, and IL-6 were examined at baseline and again at 8 weeks. Results: Data showed that XZK could significantly decrease not only plasma LDL-C levels (87.26 ± 24.45 vs. 123.34 ± 23.99, P<0.001), total cholesterol (4.14 ± 0.87 vs. 5.08 ± 1.03, P<0.001), triglycerides (0.95 ± 0.38 vs. 1.55 ± 0.61, P<0.05), and apolipoprotein B (1.70 ± 0.35 vs. 1.81 ± 0.72, P<0.05), but also oxLDL (36.36 ± 5.31 vs. 49.20 ± 15.01, P<0.05) and IL-6 (8.50 ± 7.40 vs. 10.40 ± 9.49, P<0.05). At the same time, XZK reduced the concentration of small LDL-C (1.78 ± 2.17 vs. 6.33 ± 7.78, P<0.05) and the percentage of the small LDL subfraction (1.09 ± 1.12 vs. 3.07 ± 3.09, P<0.05). Conclusions: Treatment with 1200 mg/day XZK for 8 weeks significantly decreased the atherogenic small LDL subfraction and reduced oxidative stress and inflammatory markers, in addition to affecting the lipid profile, suggesting multiple beneficial effects in coronary artery disease.展开更多

In this study, the assimilation technique scheme was employed in NOAA's STMAS(Space-Time Multiscale Analysis System) to assimilate AMSU-A radiances data.Channel selection sensitivity experiments were conducted on assimilated satellite data in the first place. Then, real case analysis of AMSU-A data assimilation was performed. The analysis results showed that, following assimilating of AMSU-A channels 5-11 in STMAS, the objective function quickly converged, and the channel vertical response was consistent with the AMSU-A weighting function distribution, which suggests that the channels can be used in the assimilation of satellite data in STMAS. With the case of the Typhoon Morakot in Taiwan Island in August 2009 as an example, experiments on assimilated and unassimilated AMSU-A radiances data were designed to analyze the impact of the assimilation of satellite data on STMAS. The results demonstrated that assimilation of AMSU-A data provided more accurate prediction of the precipitation region and intensity, and especially, it improved the 0-6h precipitation forecast significantly.展开更多
