Introduction and objectives: Astragaloside IV (AS-IV) is an active compound that has demonstrated significant therapeutic potential for chronic heart failure (CHF), but its mechanism remains unclear. This study aimed to explore the regulatory mechanisms of AS-IV in the treatment of CHF.

Methods: The therapeutic targets and signaling pathways of AS-IV on CHF were predicted using network pharmacology. Molecular docking techniques were then used to validate these predicted results. Additionally, in vivo experiments were carried out for further validation, including echocardiographic studies, ELISA analysis, HWI measurements, HE staining, Hoechst staining, and western blotting analysis.

Results: Network pharmacology analysis showed that cell apoptosis and the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway may be the primary mechanisms for AS-IV in the treatment of CHF. Molecular docking has shown that AS-IV has a relatively high binding affinity to core targets. In vivo experiments have shown that AS-IV improves cardiac dysfunction caused by CHF, reduces biomarker levels, alleviates cardiac hypertrophy, attenuates myocardial pathological changes, inhibits myocardial apoptosis, and up-regulates the expression levels of P-PI3K and P-AKT proteins.

Conclusion: This study demonstrates that AS-IV delays the progression of CHF, which may be achieved by inhibiting myocardial apoptosis via activating the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway. These findings have laid the foundation for research and application of AS-IV in CHF treatment.

黄芪甲苷(Astragaloside IV, AS-IV)是一种治疗慢性心力衰竭(CHF)的活性化合物,但其作用机制尚不清楚。本研究旨在探讨AS-IV在CHF治疗中的调控机制。方法:应用网络药理学方法预测AS-IV对慢性心力衰竭的治疗靶点和信号通路。然后使用分子对接技术验证这些预测结果。此外,还进行了体内实验以进一步验证,包括超声心动图研究、ELISA分析、HWI测量、HE染色、Hoechst染色和western blotting分析。结果:网络药理学分析显示,细胞凋亡和PI3K-Akt信号通路可能是AS-IV治疗CHF的主要机制。分子对接表明AS-IV对核心靶点具有较高的结合亲和力。体内实验表明,AS-IV可改善CHF所致心功能障碍,降低生物标志物水平,减轻心肌肥厚,减轻心肌病理改变,抑制心肌凋亡,上调P-PI3K和P-AKT蛋白表达水平。结论:本研究表明,AS-IV可能通过激活PI3K-AKT信号通路抑制心肌凋亡,从而延缓CHF的进展。这些发现为AS-IV在CHF治疗中的研究和应用奠定了基础。

Introduction and objectives

Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) face significant perioperative risks. The choice between off-pump and on-pump CABG techniques can impact clinical outcomes, particularly related to pulmonary function and postoperative recovery. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of off-pump versus on-pump CABG in patients with COPD.

Methods

A comprehensive search of medical databases including PubMed and Google Scholar was conducted to identify relevant studies comparing off-pump and on-pump CABG in COPD patients. The main outcomes included postoperative respiratory complications, mortality rates, length of hospital stay, and overall recovery. Results were pooled as relative risks (RR) or mean differences (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI).

Results

A total of seven studies (two randomized controlled trials (RCTs), one sub-study from a previous RCT, and four observational studies) comprising 1071 patients were included in the analysis. While postoperative respiratory complications were lower in the off-pump group, the difference was not statistically significant. However, off-pump CABG was significantly associated with reduced mortality (RR 0.21; 95% CI: [0.08, 0.54], p=0.001), shorter hospital stays (MD=−2.34; 95% CI: [−4.51, −0.17], p=0.03), reduced need for mechanical ventilatory support (MD=−4.73; 95% CI: [−6.17, −3.29], p<0.00001), and lower incidence of low cardiac output (RR=0.43, 95% CI [0.19, 0.99], p=0.05).

Conclusion

Off-pump CABG provides significant benefits over on-pump CABG in COPD patients by reducing mortality, hospital stay duration, the need for mechanical ventilatory support, and low cardiac output. The observed reduction in postoperative respiratory complications, although not statistically significant, may indicate potential clinical benefits of off-pump CABG. Further large-scale RCTs are needed to confirm these findings.
简介和目的:慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)患者行冠状动脉旁路移植术(CABG)面临显著的围手术期风险。停泵和开泵CABG技术的选择会影响临床结果,特别是与肺功能和术后恢复有关。本荟萃分析旨在评估非泵送与泵送CABG治疗COPD患者的临床疗效和安全性。方法:对PubMed和谷歌Scholar等医学数据库进行全面检索,以确定比较非泵送和泵送CABG在COPD患者中的相关研究。主要结局包括术后呼吸系统并发症、死亡率、住院时间和总体恢复。结果汇总为相对危险度(RR)或平均差异(MD), 95%置信区间(CI)。结果:共纳入7项研究(2项随机对照试验(RCT)、1项既往RCT的子研究和4项观察性研究),共1071例患者。停泵组术后呼吸并发症较低,但差异无统计学意义。然而,非泵送CABG与降低死亡率(RR 0.21; 95% CI: [0.08 - 0.54], P=0.001)、缩短住院时间(MD=-2.34; 95% CI: [-4.51, -0.17], P=0.03)、减少机械通气支持需求(MD=-4.73; 95% CI:[-6.17, -3.29])显著相关。结论:非泵送CABG通过降低死亡率、住院时间、机械通气支持需求和低心输出量,为COPD患者提供了显著的益处。观察到的术后呼吸并发症的减少,虽然没有统计学意义,但可能表明非体外循环冠状动脉搭桥的潜在临床益处。需要进一步的大规模随机对照试验来证实这些发现。

Introduction and objectives

We present data from the national registry of implantable cardiac devices (CIED) promoted by the Portuguese Association of Pacing and Electrophysiology for the years 2021 and 2022.

Methods

This is an annual, voluntary, multicenter registry with retrospective data collection. The evolution of interventions over time and the distribution by type of device are evaluated.

Results

The overall trend has been one of growth in previous years and during the biennium, with an increase in the total number of interventions across all CIED types. The only exception was cardiac resynchronization therapy associated with defibrillation capacity, which saw a decrease from 2021 to 2022.

Conclusions

Following a period of stagnation in the years leading up to this report, possibly due to COVID-19, there was a significant increase in procedures in the years under review. This growth highlights the vitality of the sector in Portugal and its strong position within Europe. This registry allows for the monitoring of the situation of Portuguese centers in relation to CIED procedures and their evolution.

Introduction and objectives

Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) poses a significant challenge to healthcare. While clinical trials have shown the therapeutic benefits of dapagliflozin in patients with HFrEF, it is essential to understand treatment patterns and patient characteristics in real-world settings. The EVOLUTION-HF study sought to address this gap by analyzing real-world data.

Methods

EVOLUTION-HF is a retrospective cohort study conducted at eight sites in Portugal, which included patients who began treatment with dapagliflozin for HFrEF. Medical records were reviewed to collect information on the initiation date of dapagliflozin (the index date) and at the six- and 12-month follow-ups.

Results

This study included 228 patients. The majority were male, with an average age of 65 years, a mean left ventricular ejection fraction of 29%, and 85% classified as NYHA class II. More prevalent comorbidities were dyslipidemia (59%) and arterial hypertension (56%). On the index date, baseline medications showed a high utilization of standard HFrEF therapies: 92% of patients received betablockers, 71% were on aldosterone antagonists, and 55% were taking angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors. At the end of the follow-up period, there was a significant increase in the dosage of beta-blockers and a decrease in the dosage of loop diuretics. A low discontinuation rate of 5% was observed for dapagliflozin.

Conclusions

These findings support the established safety profile of dapagliflozin. The patient characteristics in the EVOLUTION-HF study closely resemble those in the DAPA-HF randomized trial. The observed treatment patterns indicate an optimization in guideline-directed medical therapy.
前言和目的:心力衰竭伴射血分数降低(HFrEF)对医疗保健提出了重大挑战。虽然临床试验显示了达格列净对HFrEF患者的治疗益处,但在现实环境中了解治疗模式和患者特征是至关重要的。EVOLUTION-HF研究试图通过分析真实世界的数据来解决这一差距。方法:EVOLUTION-HF是一项在葡萄牙8个地点进行的回顾性队列研究,其中包括开始使用达格列净治疗HFrEF的患者。审查了医疗记录,以收集有关开始使用达格列净的日期(索引日期)以及6个月和12个月随访的信息。结果:本研究纳入228例患者。大多数患者为男性,平均年龄65岁,平均左室射血分数为29%,其中85%为NYHA II级。更普遍的合并症是血脂异常(59%)和动脉高血压(56%)。在索引日期,基线药物显示标准HFrEF疗法的使用率很高:92%的患者接受了β受体阻滞剂,71%的患者接受了醛固酮拮抗剂,55%的患者接受了血管紧张素受体-肾上腺素抑制剂。在随访期结束时,受体阻滞剂的剂量显著增加,袢利尿剂的剂量显著减少。达格列净的停药率很低,为5%。结论:这些发现支持已建立的达格列净的安全性。EVOLUTION-HF研究中的患者特征与DAPA-HF随机试验中的患者特征非常相似。观察到的治疗模式表明,在指导药物治疗优化。
