Methods Data of 172 consecutive elderly patients (~〉75 years) with STEMI who underwent primary PCI at Guangdong Provincial Cardiovascular Institute from January 2008 to December 2011 were retrospectively collected. Patients were divided into 600-mg loading clopidogrel group and 300-mg clopidogrel group accoring to the loading dose of clopidogrel before primary percunaeous coronary intervention(PCI). Enzymatic myocardial infarction size estimated by peak creatine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB) and patency of the infarct-related artery (IRA) were compared. Thirty-day major adverse cardiac events (MACEs), which consist of death, nonfatal myocardial infarction (MI), nonfatal stroke, target vessel revascularization (TVR) or stent thrombosis (ST) were compared to assess the efficacy of different loading dose. Bleeding information was compared as well to assess the safety of different pretreatment stragety before primary PCI. Results 96 patients were adminstered with 600-mg loading clopidogrel before primary PCI while 76 were administered with 300-mg. Patency of the IRA was significantly higher in patients administered with 600-mg loading clopidogrel therapy as compared with those who received 300-mg loading clopidogrel (94.8% vs. 85.5%, P = 0.038). 600-mg loading dose of clopidogrel was associated with lower incidence of 30-day MACEs compared with 300-mg loading dose of clopidogrel (8.3% vs. 19.7%, P = 0.029) while did not increase the risk of TIMI major (3.1% vs. 3.9%, P = 0.770) and minor bleeding (10.4% vs. 6.6%, P = 0.376). Conclusion 600-mg loading clopidogrel improves final patency of the IRA and clinical outcome as compared with 300-mg loading clopidogrel without increasing bleeding hazard.展开更多

We aim at constructing a framework for integrating test data and Advanced Total Body Model (ATBM) simulations into the risk assessment. The ATBM is a finite element model managed by the Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate for the purpose of assessing the risk of injury caused by blunt impacts from non-lethal weapons. In ATBM simulations, the quantity that determines arm bone fracture is the calculated maximum strain in the bone. The main obstacle to accurate prediction is that the calculated strain is incompatible with the measured strain. The fracture strain measured in bending tests of real bones is affected by random inhomogeneity in bones and uncertainty in measurement gauge attachment location/orientation. In contrast, the strain calculated in ATBM simulations is based on the assumption that all bones are perfectly elastic with homogeneous material properties and no measurement uncertainty. To connect test data and ATBM simulations in a proper and meaningful setting, we introduce the concept of elasticity-homogenized strain. We interpret test data in terms of the homogenized strain, and build an empirical dose-injury model with the homogenized strain as the input dose for predicting injury. The maximum strain calculated by ATBM has randomness due to uncertainty in specifications of ATBM setup parameters. The dose propagation uncertainty formulation accommodates this uncertainty efficiently by simply updating the shape parameters in the dose-injury model, avoiding the high computational cost of sampling this uncertainty via multiple ATBM runs.展开更多
