Methods: Relevant literature was searched, screened and downloaded from the Web of Science (WOS) database, and bibliometric and visualization analyses were performed using CiteSpace VI software. Results: Through the search and screening of related literature, 2443 English articles were finally included. Among them, most of the Chinese publishers were mainly universities and had less connection with each other, while the foreign publishers were mainly universities and medical institutions in the United States and Europe, and had close connection with each other. The research content of Chinese scholars mainly focuses on the assessment of patients’ life and psychological status, as well as the assessment of cardiac function. Foreign research focuses on physical training assessment, disease perception, etc. Conclusion: Through visualizing relevant research with CiteSpace VI software in the form of a knowledge map, the research frontiers and trends in the field of cardiac rehabilitation for coronary heart disease patients in China and abroad can be discovered more intuitively. Compared with foreign research, the development of cardiac rehabilitation for coronary heart disease patients in China is relatively slow and insufficient, and institutions lack cooperation. In the future, China should accelerate the connection between regions in the field of cardiac rehabilitation and develop a cardiac rehabilitation model suitable for coronary heart disease patients in China with its own characteristics.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Studies have shown that sleep disorders are closely related to anxiety and depression,and the quality of life(QoL)of patients with sleep disorders is generally poor.AIM To examine the occurrence of sleep disorders in people with coronary heart disease(CHD)and their relationships with QoL,depression,and anxiety.METHODS As per the sleep condition,240 CHD individuals were separated into two groups:non-sleep disorder group(n=128)and sleep disorder group(n=112).The selfrating anxiety scale(SAS),self-rating depression scale(SDS),and World Health Organization criteria for the Quality of Life Brief scale(WHOQOL-BREF)scores of the two groups were compared.Logistic regression method was used to analyze the independent risk factors of CHD patients with sleep disorders.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to develop the risk prediction model.The association among the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index,SAS,and SDS was examined using Spearman’s correlation analysis.RESULTS The incidence of sleep disorder was 46.67%in 240 patients.The scores of SAS and SDS in the sleep disorder group were higher than those in the non-sleep disorder group,and the WHOQOL-BREF scores were lower than those in the non-sleep disorder group(P<0.05).The risk prediction model of sleep disturbances in CHD patients was constructed using the outcomes of multivariate logistic regression analysis,P=1/[1+e(-2.160+0.989×(female)+0.001×(new rural cooperative medical insurance)+2.219×(anxiety)+2.157×depression)].The results of a Spearman’s correlation study revealed that sleep quality was strongly adversely connected with the physiological field,psychological field,and social relation scores in QoL,and was considerably positively correlated with SAS and SDS(P<0.05).CONCLUSION A multivariate logistic regression model can better predict the occurrence of sleep disorders in CHD patients.Sleep disorders in CHD patients are significantly correlated with QoL,depression,and anxiety.
文摘Objective: This study visualizes and analyzes the current status, hotspots, and frontiers of cardiac rehabilitation for patients with Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) over the past decade (2012.01-2022.12), and explores the future development trend and research direction of the CR for CHD patients in China. Methods: Relevant literature was searched, screened and downloaded from the Web of Science (WOS) database, and bibliometric and visualization analyses were performed using CiteSpace VI software. Results: Through the search and screening of related literature, 2443 English articles were finally included. Among them, most of the Chinese publishers were mainly universities and had less connection with each other, while the foreign publishers were mainly universities and medical institutions in the United States and Europe, and had close connection with each other. The research content of Chinese scholars mainly focuses on the assessment of patients’ life and psychological status, as well as the assessment of cardiac function. Foreign research focuses on physical training assessment, disease perception, etc. Conclusion: Through visualizing relevant research with CiteSpace VI software in the form of a knowledge map, the research frontiers and trends in the field of cardiac rehabilitation for coronary heart disease patients in China and abroad can be discovered more intuitively. Compared with foreign research, the development of cardiac rehabilitation for coronary heart disease patients in China is relatively slow and insufficient, and institutions lack cooperation. In the future, China should accelerate the connection between regions in the field of cardiac rehabilitation and develop a cardiac rehabilitation model suitable for coronary heart disease patients in China with its own characteristics.

文摘Objective:To analyze the correlation between serum Nrf2 and GPX4 activity levels with coronary heart disease(CHD)and the severity of coronary artery disease,and to explore the role of ferroptosis mediated by its signaling pathway in the progression of CHD.Methods:A total of 540 patients suspected of CHD were selected for coronary angiography,of which 360 patients were diagnosed with CHD.The activity levels of Nrf2 and GPX4 in the serum of CHD patients were detected by ELISA,and the differences in the activities of Nrf2 and GPX4 in the presence or absence of CHD were statistically analyzed.Western blot detection of Nrf2 protein expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCS)in the control(CON)and CHD groups(90 cases each).The expression and significance of its signaling pathway in CHD patients were analyzed.Results:The activity levels of Nrf2 and GPX4 in the CHD group were lower than those in the CON group(P<0.05),and the expression levels of Nrf2 in PBMCs of the two groups were detected by Western blot.The protein expression level of Nrf2 in the CHD group(0.25±0.05)was down‑regulated compared with CON group(0.87±0.16)(P<0.05),indicating that Nrf2 protein expression level was low in CHD patients.Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum Nrf2 and GPX4 levels were negatively correlated with Gensini score(Nrf2:r=‑0.347,P<0.001;GPX4:r=-0.423,P=0.001).Nrf2 and GPX4 were negatively correlated with TG(Nrf2:r=-0.284,P<0.001;GPX4:r=-0.275,P=0.001),Nrf2 and GPX4 levels were negatively correlated with LDL(Nrf2:r=-0.418,P<0.001)0.05;(GPX4:r=-0.426,P<0.05),Nrf2 and GPX4 levels were positively correlated with HDL(Nrf2:r=0.318,P<0.05;GPX4:r=0.428,P<0.05),and Nrf2 was positively correlated with GPX4(r=0.456,P<0.01).Conclusion:The ferroptosis pathway mediated by the Nrf2‑GPX4 signaling pathway is closely related to the degree of coronary artery disease and the pathogenesis of CHD,and its mechanism may be related to the down‑regulation of the Nrf2‑GPX4 signaling pathway.

文摘Objective We aimed to investigate the cumulative effect of high CRP level and apolipoprotein B-to-apolipoprotein A-1(ApoB/ApoA-1) ratio on the incidence of ischemic stroke(IS) or coronary heart disease(CHD) in a Mongolian population in China.Methods From June 2003 to July 2012,2589 Mongolian participants were followed up for IS and CHD events based on baseline investigation.All the participants were divided into four subgroups according to C-reactive protein(CRP) level and ApoB/ApoA-1 ratio.Cox proportional hazard models were used to estimate the hazard ratios(HRs) and 95% confidence intervals(CIs) for the IS and CHD events in all the subgroups.Results The HRs(95% CI) for IS and CHD were 1.33(0.84-2.12),1.14(0.69-1.88),and 1.91(1.17-3.11) in the ‘low CRP level with high ApoB/ApoA-1',‘high CRP level with low ApoB/ApoA-1',and ‘high CRP level with high ApoB/ApoA-1' subgroups,respectively,in comparison with the ‘low CRP level with low ApoB/ApoA-1' subgroup.The risks of IS and CHD events was highest in the ‘high CRP level with high ApoB/ApoA-1' subgroup,with statistical significance.Conclusion High CRP level with high ApoB/ApoA-1 ratio was associated with the highest risks of IS and CHD in the Mongolian population.This study suggests that the combination of high CRP and ApoB/ApoA-1 ratio may improve the assessment of future risk of developing IS and CHD in the general population.
