How to Build CHD@ZJU

CHD related Articles were retrieved from Pubmed, by entering keywords "coronary heart disease" and constrict the publish date from 2000/1/1 to now (2013/1/23). As a result, totally 115898 articles were found and their abstracts were downloaded for text mining. Since some articles didn't contain abstracts, only 88396 abstracts remained.
The text-mining process to get CHD related genes could be divided in to 5 following steps:

  • 1) Extracting all keywords from abstracts and ignoring those keywords start with numbers. 101402 keywords were extracted.

    •
  • 2) Input these keywords into Gene library in ArrayTrack and find possible related genes. 4674 genes were then found.

  • 3) Put these 4674 genes again into pubmed abstracts to find related aticles. Only genes which offical name or there keyword description (such as prolactin for gene PRL) could be found in the abstract would be remained. As a result, 1247 genes were remained.

    •
  • 4) Manually examined on the 1247 genes to validate it was acutally related to CHD. Some genes would be filtered if it represents other meanings (such as gene CAD, Entrez ID:790, carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase 2, is mostly meant coronary arterial disease in articles). 681 genes were then validated with at least one reference.

  • 5) All genes was compared with 1078 CHD genes in RGD database, and 370 genes were overlapped. These 370 genes were labels as "RGD_Supported" and the other 293 genes were labels as "REFERED". All 663 genes had supported references in CHD@ZJU which were examined by step 4.

  • Abstract:"BACKGROUND: While many studies confirmed the importance of fractional flow reserve (FFR) in guiding complex percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), data regarding the significance of FFR for bifurcation lesions are still lacking. METHODS: Between October 2008 and October 2009, 51 patients with true bifurcation lesions were consecutively enrolled and randomized into double kissing (DK) crush (n = 25), and provisional 1-stent (n = 26) groups. FFR measurements at baseline and hyperemia were measured at pre-PCI, post-PCI, and at 8-month follow-up. RESULTS: Clinical follow-ups were available in 100% of patients while only 33% of patients underwent angiographic follow-up. Baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics were matched between the 2 groups. Pre-PCI FFR of the main branch (MB) in the DK group was 0.76 +/- 0.15, which was significantly lower than in the provisional 1-stent group (0.83 +/- 0.10, P = 0.029). This difference disappeared after the PCI procedure (0.92 +/- 0.04 vs. 0.92 +/- 0.05, P = 0.58). There were no significant differences in terms of baseline, angiographic, procedural indexes, and FFR of side branch (SB) between the 2 treatment arms. However, immediately after PCI, the patient with DK crush had higher FFR in the SB as compared to the provisional 1-stent group (0.94 +/- 0.03 vs. 0.90 +/- 0.08, P = 0.028, respectively) and also they had lower diameter stenosis (8.59 +/- 6.41% vs. 15.62 +/- 11.69%, P = 0.015, respectively). CONCLUSION: In the acute phase, immediately after PCI for bifurcation lesion, DK crush stenting was associated with higher FFR and lower residual diameter stenosis in the SB, as compared with the provisional 1-stent group."
