摘要:
Mechanisms controlling forearm muscle vascular resistance (FMVR) during postural changes were investigated in seven patients with severe congestive heart failure (CHF) and in seven control subjects with unimpaired left ventricular function. Relative brachioradial muscle blood flow was determined by the local 133Xe-washout technique. Unloading of baroreceptors with use of 45 degree upright tilt was comparably obtained in the patients with CHP and control subjects. Control subjects had substantially increased FMVR and heart rate to maintain arterial pressure whereas patients with CHF had decreased FMVR by 51 + 1 % (mean ± SEM, p < .02) and had no increase in heart rate despite a fall in arterial pressure during upright tilt. The autoregulatory and local vasoconstrictor reflex responsiveness during postural changes in forearm vascular pressures were intact in both groups. Further investigations were carried out in the patients with CHF. The left axillary nerve plexus was blocked by local anesthesia in the seven patients. No alterations in forearm vascular pressures were observed.' This blockade preserved the local regulation of FMVR but reversed the vasodilator response to upright tilt as FMVR increased by 30 + 7% (p < .02). Blockade of central neural impulses to this limb combined with brachial arterial infusions of phentolamine completely abolished the humoral vasoconstriction in the tilted position. Infusions of propranolol to the contralateral brachial artery that did not affect baseline values of heart rate, arterial pressure, or the local reflex regulation of FMVR reversed the abnormal vasodilator response to upright tilt as FMVR increased by 42 ± 12% (p < .02). Despite augmented baseline values, forearm venous but not arterial plasma levels of epinephrine increased in the tilted position, as did arterial rather than venous plasma concentrations of norepinephrine in these patients. The results suggest a 18-adrenergic reflex mechanism elicited by spinal or supraspinal neural impulses and probably modulating a cotransmitter release in the patients with CHF.

摘要:
It has been postulated that platelet function plays an important role in the initiation of atherosclerosis. Currently there are no definitive data on the longer-term effects of regular physical exercise on platelet function in humans. We assessed the influence of regular moderate-intensity physical exercise (brisk walking to slow jogging) on platelet aggregation in a population-based sample of middle-aged, overweight, mildly hypertensive men in eastern Finland. In this controlled study, we evaluated the net effect of exercise on platelet aggregation by studying changes in optical density and ATP release in platelet-rich plasma. A significant inhibition of secondary platelet aggregation from 27% to 36% was observed in the men taking regular exercise. These findings give new insight into the possible protective effects of exercise against the risk of ischemic heart disease.

摘要:
A computer model of “modulated sinus parasystole” was devised in which two sinus pacemakers interacted electrotonically, entraining each other's periodicity according to their beat-tobeat phasic relationships. Depending on the preestablished rules, the model gave rise to various rhythm patterns that were similar to those recorded in patients with sinoatrial arrhythmias. The validity of the model in predicting clinically observed rhythm disturbances was tested in a case of sinoatrial extrasystolic activity. The sinoatrial origin of parasystolic discharges giving rise to various patterns of group beating in this case was diagnosed according to the following electrocardiographic criteria: (1) premature P waves having contour identical to P waves of basic beats, (2) variable coupling intervals, and (3) absence of compensatory pauses (i.e., returning cycles having duration similar to that of the basic P-P interval). For the analysis, it was assumed that two distinct but closely apposed sinoatrial pacemaker centers were competing for activation of the heart. The model accurately simulated the arrhythmias in the electrocardiographic trace. The best fit was found when the two pacemakers interacted on the basis of “resetting” in one direction and electrotonic modulation in the other. In fact, under appropriate conditions, the model matched precisely all frequency-dependent patterns of extrasystolic activity observed in the trace. We conclude that the modulated parasystole hypothesis can readily explain the mechanism of sinus extrasystolic discharges whose returning cycle equals the basic P-P interval. Moreover, the model predicts that, when the rules for mutual entrainment between "dominant" and parasystolic sinus pacemaker are appropriate, the retuming cycle can be shorter than the basic cycle.

摘要:
We injected acetylcholine (ACh), the neurotransmitter of the parasympathetic nervous system, into the coronary arteries of 28 patients with variant angina. Injection of 10 to 80 gg ACh into the coronary artery responsible for the attack induced spasm together with chest pain and ST segment elevation or depression on the electrocardiogram in 30 of the 32 arteries of 25 of the 27 patients. The injection of 20 to 100 gg ACh into the coronary artery not responsible for the attack in 18 patients resulted in various degrees of constriction in most of them, but no spasm in any of them. After intravenous injection of 1.0 to 1.5 mg atropine sulfate, the injection of ACh into the coronary artery responsible for the attack did not induce spasm or attack in any of the nine coronary arteries injected in eight patients. We conclude that the intracoronary injection of ACh induces coronary spasm and attack in patients with variant angina and that the activity of the parasympathetic nervous system may play a role in the pathogenesis of coronary spasm. We also conclude that the intracoronary injection of ACh is a useful test for provocation of coronary spasm.

摘要:
We studied six patients who suffered from angina pectoris but had angiographically patent major coronary arteries. Two of the patients suffered also from congestive heart failure. Three patients had supraventricular tachyarrhythmias. Three patients had conduction disturbances. During coronary angiography the patients had significantly reduced flow velocity of angiographic contrast medium compared with that in a control group. Echocardiographic and Doppler flow studies showed a tendency for symmetrical thickening of the left ventricular wall, enlargement of the right ventricle, and reduced compliance of both ventricles. Right ventricular endomyocardial biopsy revealed pathologic small coronary arteries with fibromuscular hyperplasia, hypertrophy of the media, myointimal proliferation, and endothelial degeneration. Capillaries had swollen endothelial cells encroaching on the lumen. Myocardial hypertrophy, lipofuscin deposition, and patchy fibrosis were also observed. These cases show that small-vessel coronary artery disease can cause classic angina pectoris. The diagnosis can be suspected when the coronary angiogram shows large patent arteries with slow flow of the angiographic contrast medium and it can be confirmed by endomyocardial biopsy.

摘要:
To assess the relationship between the direction of ST segment response to transient coronary occlusion and collateral function, we studied 25 patients with diagnostic ST segment changes during transient occlusion of the proximal left anterior descending artery (LAD). Electrocardiographic leads I, II, V2, and V5; left ventricular filling, aortic, and distal coronary pressures; and great cardiac vein flow were measured during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) of the LAD. During a 1 min LAD balloon occlusion, 16 patients had reversible ST elevation (group I) and nine patients had ST depression (group II). The ST responses in individual patients were consistent during repeated occlusions, and ST depression never preceded ST elevation. Angiography before PTCA showed less severe LAD stenosis in group I (69 ± 15%) than in group 11 (88 ± 10%; p < .01) and collateral filling of the LAD in no group I patient but in six of nine patients in group II (p < .00 1). During LAD occlusion, determinants of myocardial oxygen demand (left ventricular filling pressure, aortic pressure, heart rate, and double product) were similar in both groups. Group I patients, however, had lower distal coronary pressure (25 ± 8 vs 41 ± 16 mm Hg) and residual great cardiac vein flow (33 + 14 vs 51 ± 22 ml/min) and higher coronary collateral resistance (3.1 ± 2.1 vs 1.5 ± 0.8 mm Hg/ml/min) than group II patients (all p < .05). In patients with ST elevation during LAD occlusion, stenosis before PTCA was less severe, visible collaterals were not present, and hemodynamic variables during LAD occlusion reflected poorer collateral function. Collateral function is an important determinant of the direction of ST segment response to ischemia during acute coronary occlusion.
