Acute UGIB caused by Mallory-Weiss syndrome(MWS) is usually a dire situation with massive bleeding and hemodynamic instability. Acute UGIB caused by MWS after an AMI has not been previously reported.CASE SUMMARY A 57-year-old man with acute inferior wall ST elevation myocardial infarction underwent a primary coronary intervention of the acutely occluded right coronary artery. Six hours after the intervention, the patient had a severe UGIB,followed by vomiting. His hemoglobin level dropped from 15.3 g/d L to 9.7 g/d L. In addition to blood transfusion and a gastric acid inhibition treatment,early endoscopy was employed and MWS was diagnosed. Bleeding was stopped by endoscopic placement of titanium clips.CONCLUSION Bleeding complications after stent implantation can pose a dilemma. MWS is a rare but severe cause of acute UGIB after an AMI that requires an early endoscopic diagnosis and a hemoclip intervention to stop bleeding.展开更多

Methods Patients with AMI (n=40) and with stable coronary heart disease (CHD) (n=18) were registered. Peripheral blood monocytes from all participants were isolated and cultured for 24 hrs, but those from patients with AMI were randomly exposed to various concentration of atorvastatin (0, 0.1, 1, 10 μmol/L) during the cultivation. COX-2 mRNA expression in monocytes was analyzed by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Concentration of IL-6 in supernatant was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results COX-2 expression and IL-6 secretion by peripheral blood monocytes from patients with AMI (0.92±0.13, 205±46 pg/ml) were higher than that from controls (0.19±0.08, 41±8 pg/ml) (both P<0.05), and COX-2 expression was dramatically reduced up to 52% by atorvastatin (P<0.05), in a concentration-dependent manner respectively. The expression of COX-2 from patients with AMI was obviously correlated with the secretion of IL-6 (r=0.636, P<0.05). COX-2 expression in the monocytes after intervention of atorvastatin was also positively correlated with IL-6 secretion by these cells (r=0.783, P<0.05). Conclusions COX-2 involves inflammatory respond in early-stage of AMI. Atorvastatin may decrease COX-2 expression in peripheral blood monocytes from patients with AMI and cyclooxygenase-dependent pathway might be correlated with the anti-inflammation mechanism of statin.展开更多
