Effect of pravastatin on endothelial dysfunction in children with medium to giant coronary aneurysms due to Kawasaki disease

Chao Duan, Zhong-Dong Du, Yu Wang, Li-Qun Jia

World Journal of Pediatrics > 2014 > 10 > 3 > 232-237

Background Ongoing low-grade inflammation and endothelial dysfunction persist in children with coronary lesions diagnosed with Kawasaki disease (KD). Statins, frequently used in the management of high cholesterol, have also shown to improve surrogate markers of inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. This study was undertaken to investigate the efficacy and safety of pravastatin in children with...

Clinical features of recurrent Kawasaki disease and its risk factors

Hai-ming Yang, Zhong-Dong Du, Pei-pei Fu

European Journal of Pediatrics > 2013 > 172 > 12 > 1641-1647

The clinical features and risk factors for recurrence of Kawasaki disease (KD) remain unclear. In order to summarize clinical features of recurrent KD and identify risk factors associated with recurrence, we conducted a retrospective review of the medical records of consecutive cases of KD from January 2002 to December 2010. Demographic, clinical, laboratory, and echocardiographic data were analyzed...

Comparison of transcatheter closure of secundum atrial septal defect using the Amplatzer septal occluder associated with deficient versus sufficient rims

Zhong-Dong Du, Peter Koenig, Q.i-Ling Cao, David Waight, more

The American Journal of Cardiology > 2002 > 90 > 8 > 865-869

To evaluate the feasibility of transcatheter closure of secundum atrial septal defects (ASDs) associated with deficient rims (<5 mm) using the Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO), 23 patients (median age 10.7 years) underwent an attempted transcatheter closure. The patients had a deficient anterior rim of 0 to 4 mm (n = 20), an inferior rim of 2 mm (n = 2), or a posterior rim of 4 mm (n = 1) as assessed...

Journal of the American College of Cardiology > 2002 > 39 > 11 > 1836-1844

This study sought to compare the safety, efficacy and clinical utility of the Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) for closure of secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) with surgical closure.The clinical utility of a device such as the ASO can only be judged against the results of contemporaneous surgery.A multicenter, nonrandomized concurrent study was performed in 29 pediatric cardiology centers from March...

Immediate and six-month results of the profile of the Amplatzer septal occluder as assessed by transesophageal echocardiography

Qi-Ling Cao, Zhong-Dong Du, Annette Joseph, Peter Koenig, more

The American Journal of Cardiology > 2001 > 88 > 7 > 754-759

Catheter closure of secundum atrial septal defect (ASD) using the Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) is a potential alternative for open surgical repair. However, the large profile of the device obtained immediately after closure continues to raise some concerns regarding its long-term safety. To evaluate the changes in the profile of the device after being deployed, transesophageal echocardiography...

Pulmonary hypertension in patients with thalassemia major

Zhong-Dong Du, Nathan Roguin, Elliot Milgram, Kamal Saab, more

American Heart Journal > 1997 > 134 > 3 > 532-537

To evaluate the pulmonary artery pressure in patients with thalassemia major, Doppler echocardiography was performed in 33 patients with thalassemia major (aged 2 to 24 years) and 33 normal controls. Pulmonary artery pressure was estimated by (1) measuring the systolic transtricuspid gradient from tricuspid regurgitation and adding it to the right atrial pressure, estimated by the response of the...

High prevalence of muscular ventricular septal defect in preterm neonates

Zhong-Dong Du, Nathan Roguin, Mila Barak, Sandra Glusman Bihari, more

The American Journal of Cardiology > 1996 > 78 > 10 > 1183-1185

There is a high prevalence (56.61,000 live births) of isolated muscular VSD in preterm neonates. The patients appear clinically healthy, and in 87.5% of cases the VSD spontaneously closed within 6 to 11 months. Thus, the prevalence and rate of spontaneous closure are similar to those in full-term neonates.

High prevalence of muscular ventricular septal defect in neonates

Journal of the American College of Cardiology > 1995 > 26 > 6 > 1545-1548

This study sought to use echocardiography to evaluate the prevalence of muscular ventricular septal defect in neonates.Ventricular septal defect is usually asymptomatic and closes spontaneously. An increase in its prevalence has been noted recently. One reason is the improved detection of small defects, especially with the increased use of echocardiography. Therefore, one would expect a higher prevalence...
