The objective of this study was to compare the differences in the predictive value of RDW in patients with HF due to different causes. Methods We retrospectively investigated 1,021 HF patients from October 2009 to December 2011 at Fuwai Hospital (Beijing, China). HF in these patients was caused by three diseases; coronary heart disease (CHD), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and valvular heart disease (VHD). Patients were followed-up for 21 ~ 9 months. Results The RDW, mortality and survival duration were significantly different among the three groups. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the cumulative survival decreased significantly with increased RDW in patients with HF caused by CHD and DCM, but not in those with HF patients caused by VHD. In a multivariable model, RDW was identified as an independent predictor for the mortality of HF patients with CHD (P 〈 0.001, HR 1.315, 95% CI 1.122-1.543). The group with higher N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and higher RDW than median had the lowest cumulative survival in patients with HF due to CHD, but not in patients with HF due to DCM. Conclusions RDW is a prognostic indicator for patients with HF caused by CHD and DCM; thus, RDW adds important information to NT-proBNP in CHD caused HF patients.展开更多

Methods 230 cases of coronary heart disease were selected and divided into the obese group and the non- obese group. Obesity and non-obesity were defined based on the body mass index (BMI if 28.0kg/m2), or waist-hip ratio (men〉 0.9, women〉 0.85). In addition, 130 healthy subjects were recruited as controls. The pathological status of coronary lesions was quantita- tively analyzed according to the Coronary Vascular Image Segmentation Evaluation Criteria (American Heart Association 1984) and the Gensini scoring system. Results of the changes of both the hemoglobin levels and the red blood cell count in the obese group, the non- obese group with CHD and the control group were compared. Besides, Multivariant Logistic Regression Analysis was applied to assess the correlation between the red blood cells and the coronary artery disease. Results The red blood cell count and the level of hemoglobin in the obese group with CHD was higher than that in the non-obese group with CHD [(4.35 ± 0,55) and (4.13 ± 0.56) 10^9/L; (136.71± 15.87) and (129.96 ±16.23) g/L, P 〈 0.05 in both]; the proportion of acute coronary syndrome in the obese group with CHD was higher in the obese group with CI-/D than that in the non-obese group with CHD (P〈0.05); Multivariant logistic regression analysis also showed that the red blood cell count was positively correlated with obesity with CHD.Conclusion The red blood cell count and the level of hemoglobin in the obese group were higher than those in the non-obese group; the increase of red blood cell count and hemoglobin level is one of the independent risk factors for the obese patients with CHD.展开更多

The results showed that the main period of occurrence and prevalence of red heart kiwifruit ulcer was from March to April. In winter, when the daily average temperature of 5 d and above is ≤2°C, the daily extreme minimum temperature is ≤−2°C, and the daily average relative humidity is ≥75%, it is beneficial for the ulcer pathogen to lurk and propagate in the plant. It is suggested that this meteorological condition should be used as an early warning indicator for the prevention of ulcer disease of red heart kiwifruit, in order to actively organize prevention after the emergence of early warning indicators to improve the prevention and treatment effect. In spring, the average daily temperature of 5 d and above is ≤18°C, and the daily average relative humidity is ≥80%, which is easy to induce ulcer disease. It can be seen that the first is the winter climatic conditions to meet the breeding of ulcer disease, and then the spring climatic conditions must also meet the rapid propagation of ulcer disease, ulcer disease can occur, develop and popularize. It is of great practical significance to carry out experiments on the relationship between the occurrence of ulcer disease in Guizhou red heart kiwifruit and meteorological conditions.展开更多

Before and after treatment, levels of red blood cell parameters, vascular endothelial function and cardiac function indexes were compared between the two groups. Results: Before treatment, the difference of HCT, RDW, RBC, NO, ET-1, LVEF, LVEDD and LVESD levels in the two groups were not significantly. After treatment, HCT and RBC levels in two groups were no statistically significant difference;The levels of RDW, ET-1, LVEDD and LVESD in observation group were significantly lower than those in this group before treatment, and significantly lower than those in the control group after treatment;The levels of NO and LVEF in two groups were significantly higher than those in the group before treatment, and levels of NO and LVEF in the observation group were significantly higher than those in control group after treatment. Conclusion: The clinical effect of aerobic exercise training combined with conventional drug in treatment of senile coronary heart disease with chronic heart failure was significant, which can effectively increase the RDW level of patients, improve vascular endothelial function and heart function, it has important clinical value.展开更多

Methods: A total of 104 patients with coronary heart disease and heart failure treated in our hospital from March 2016 to November 2018 were randomly divided into control group and observation group, 52 cases in each group. After admission, patients in the control group were given routine symptomatic treatment according to the course of the disease, including angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor antagonists, diuretics, beta-blockers and other drugs. The observation group was treated with Dazhu Hongjingtian injection combined with trimetazidine on the basis of the treatment measures of the control group. At the end of the course of treatment, the therapeutic effects of the two groups were evaluated, and the indexes of cardiac function before and after treatment were tested, including:left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LEVDD), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF, Left Ventricular End-Diastolic Dimension), left ventricular ejection fraction (Left Ventricular Enje). The changes of RDW and GDF-15 levels before and after treatment were analyzed and compared between the two groups. Results: The total effective rate of the observation group was 95.00%, which was significantly higher than that of the control group. After treatment, the LVEF value of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group, but the LVESD and LVEDD of the observation group were significantly lower than that of the control group. After treatment, the content of GDF-15 in the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group;the RDW of the observation group was lower than that of the There was no significant difference. Conclusion: Trimetazidine combined with Rhodiola sachalinensis can effectively treat patients with coronary heart disease and heart failure, and can effectively reduce the levels of RDW and GDF-15.

The currently available scientific evidence suggests that RDW assessment not only predicts the risk of adverse outcomes(cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, hospitalization for acute decompensation or worsened left ventricular function) in patients with acute and chronic heart failure(HF), but is also a significant and independent predictor of developing HF in patients free of this condition. Regarding the biological interplay between impaired hematopoiesis and cardiac dysfunction, many of the different conditions associated with increased heterogeneity of erythrocyte volume(i.e., ageing, inflammation, oxidative stress, nutritional deficiencies and impaired renal function), may be concomitantly present in patients with HF, whilst anisocytosis may also directly contribute to the development and worsening of HF. In conclusion, the longitudinal assessment of RDW changes over time may be considered an efficient measure to help predicting the risk of both development and progression of HF.展开更多
