The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that HGF and VEGF concentrations may vary according to the different markers of CHF severity and to analyze the impact of HGF and VEGF concentrations on the cardiovascular mortality of patients with CHF. Methods: We studied 529 consecutive patients who were referred to our center for an evaluation of left ventricular dysfunction. Hepatocyte growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor levels were determined on blood samples obtained on entry into the study. Clinical follow-up(median 988 days) was obtained for 528 patients. Results: Hepatocyte growth factor concentrations were strongly associated with age, diabetes mellitus, and all markers of CHF severity; by contrast, baseline characteristics did not differ among VEGF tertiles. Cardiovascular survival rates at 1, 2, and 3 years were 91%, 87%, and 80%, respectively. The survival curves indicated a worse outcome for patients with high HGF concentrations at baseline(P< .0001); by contrast, cardiovascular survival was similar across the tertiles of VEGF(P=.37). Hepatocyte growth factor concentrations were higher in the 109 patients with a cardiovascular event(1001[741-1327] pg/mL) than in the 419 patients without(773[610-1045] pg/mL, P< .0001). By multivariate analysis, a baseline HGF concentration >802 pg/mL was associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality(hazard ratio=1.85, 95%CI 1.09-3.13, P=.02); other variables retained into the final model were B-type natriuretic peptide(P< .0001), peak oxygen consumption(P=.0002), and ischemic etiology(P=.0005). Conclusions: Hepatocyte growth factor levels correlate with CHF severity and are associated with an increased cardiovascular mortality during follow-up.展开更多

In this paper, entropy method is used to measure the provincial level of double cycle development, and panel regression model is used to analyze the impact of industrial structure upgrading on the double cycle. The study found that the double cycle development level of Chinese economy is characterized by regional disequilibrium. The level of domestic cycle development is relatively high, and the level of international cycle development is also relatively high. The dual-cycle performance shows obvious spatial accumulation characteristics in the developed southeast coastal areas and the backward northwest areas, and the dual-cycle development level in the eastern coastal areas grows faster than that in the western areas. The upgrading of industrial structure has significantly raised the level of double cycle development, and the innovation of science and technology as the regulating variable has an incentive effect on the upgrading of industrial structure and the relationship between domestic and international double cycle. The heterogeneity analysis shows that the promotion effect of accelerating industrial structure upgrading on the double cycle in the eastern region is much greater than that in the western region, and the promotion effect of industrial structure upgrading on the double cycle in the 13th Five-Year Plan period is stronger than that in the 12th Five-Year Plan period, and the influence coefficient of industrial structure upgrading on the domestic economic cycle is positive and significant, and the promotion effect is obvious, but has no direct promotion effect on the international economic cycle.展开更多
