This paper was aimed to explore the application of the block matching pyramid (BMP) algorithm in echocardiographic spot tracking in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and angina pectoris, as well as the effect of Shexiang Baoxin pills (a kind of drug containing musk, which is good for cardiac diseases) on blood lipids, cardiac function, and curative effect. 206 patients with CHD angina pectoris in the hospital from July 2018 to May 2020 were selected as the research subjects and were enrolled into the control (Ctrl) group (conventional treatment, n = 103) and the observation group (the Shexiang Baoxin pill was given on the basis of conventional treatment, n = 103) in random. Then, the patients’ echocardiograms were obtained, and the BMP algorithm was used to track the echocardiograms. At 12 months after treatment, the total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were compared. Besides, the differences between left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD), cardiac index (CI), cardiac output (CO), and LVEF were observed. Finally, the efficacy of angina pectoris and electrocardiogram was calculated. It was found that the BMP algorithm can track the echocardiograms and display the movement and displacement of the patients’ left ventricle. After treatment, in contrast with the Ctrl, the levels of TC, TG, and LDL-C in the observation group were obviously lower ( P < 0.05 ); the LVESV, LVEDV, and LVEF were obviously lower ( P < 0.05 ), the LVESD, LVEDD, CO, and CI were obviously higher ( P < 0.05 ), the total score of angina after treatment was obviously lower ( P < 0.05 ), and the total effective rates of angina pectoris and echocardiogram were obviously higher ( P < 0.05 ). In conclusion, echocardiographic spot tracking can realize the diagnosis of patients with CHD angina pectoris, and Shexiang Baoxin pill can regulate the blood lipid level and improve the echocardiographic indicators and the clinical efficacy is obvious.

Aims Elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease; however, there is uncertainty about the role of total triglycerides and the individual triglyceride-containing lipoprotein sub-fractions. We measured 14 triglyceride-containing lipoprotein sub-fractions using nuclear magnetic resonance and examined associations with coronary heart disease and stroke. Methods Triglyceride-containing sub-fraction measures were available in 11,560 participants from the three UK cohorts free of coronary heart disease and stroke at baseline. Multivariable logistic regression was used to estimate the association of each sub-fraction with coronary heart disease and stroke expressed as the odds ratio per standard deviation increment in the corresponding measure. Results The 14 triglyceride-containing sub-fractions were positively correlated with one another and with total triglycerides, and inversely correlated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Thirteen sub-fractions were positively associated with coronary heart disease (odds ratio in the range 1.12 to 1.22), with the effect estimates for coronary heart disease being comparable in subgroup analysis of participants with and without type 2 diabetes, and were attenuated after adjustment for HDL-C and LDL-C. There was no evidence for a clear association of any triglyceride lipoprotein sub-fraction with stroke. Conclusions Triglyceride sub-fractions are associated with increased risk of coronary heart disease but not stroke, with attenuation of effects on adjustment for HDL-C and LDL-C.
