1Caspase-3 activation as a bifurcation point between plasticity and cell death显示文摘Death-mediating proteases such as caspases and caspase-3 in particular,have been implicated in neurodegenerative processes,aging and Alzheimer's disease.However,emerging evidence suggests that in addition to their classical role in cell death,caspases play a key role in modulating synaptic function.It is remarkable that active caspases-3,which can trigger widespread damage and degeneration,aggregates in structures as delicate as synapses and persists in neurons without causing acute cell death.Here,we evaluate this dichotomy,and discuss the hypothesis that caspase-3 may be a bifurcation point in cellular signaling,able to orient the neuronal response to stress down either pathological/apoptotic pathways or towards physiological cellular remodeling.We propose that temporal,spatial and other regulators of caspase activity are key determinants of the ultimate effect of caspase-3 activation in neurons.This concept has implications for differential roles of caspase-3 activation across the lifespan.Specifically,we propose that limited caspase-3 activation is critical for synaptic function in the healthy adult brain while chronic activation is involved in degenerative processes in the aging brain.Shikha Snigdha Erica D Smith G Aleph Prieto Carl W Cotman 2012Neuroscience Bulletin2012,28,1:91
2Gastric cancer: Current status of lymph node dissection显示文摘D2 procedure has been accepted in Far East as the standard treatment for both early(EGC) and advanced gastric cancer(AGC) for many decades. Recently EGC has been successfully treated with endoscopy by endoscopic mucosal resection or endoscopic submucosal dissection, when restricted or extended Gotoda's criteria can be applied and D1+ surgery is offered only to patients not fitted for less invasive treatment. Furthermore, two randomised controlled trials(RCTs) have been demonstrating the non inferiority of minimally invasive technique as compared to standard open surgery for the treatment of early cases and recently the feasibility of adequate D1+ dissection has been demonstrated also for the robot assisted technique. In case of AGC the debate on the extent of nodal dissection has been open for many decades. While D2 gastrectomy was performed as the standard procedure in eastern countries, mostly based on observational and retrospective studies, in the west the Medical Research Council(MRC), Dutch and Italian RCTs have been conducted to show a survival benefit of D2 over D1 with evidence based medicine. Unfortunately both the MRC and the Dutch trials failed to show a survival benefit after the D2 procedure, mostly due to the significant increase of postoperative morbidity and mortality, which was referred to splenopancreatectomy. Only 15 years after the conclusion of its accrual, the Dutch trial could report a significant decrease of recur-rence after D2 procedure. Recently the long term survival analysis of the Italian RCT could demonstrate a benefit for patients with positive nodes treated with D2 gastrectomy without splenopancreatectomy. As nowadays also in western countries D2 procedure can be done safely with pancreas preserving technique and without preventive splenectomy, it has been suggested in several national guidelines as the recommended procedure for patients with AGC.Maurizio Degiuli Giovanni De Manzoni Alberto Di Leo Domenico D'Ugo Erica Galasso Daniele Marrelli Roberto Petrioli Karol Polom Franco Roviello Francesco Santullo Mario Morino 2016World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,10:29
3Hypoxia,angiogenesis and liver fibrogenesis in the progression of chronic liver diseases显示文摘Angiogenesis is a dynamic,hypoxia-stimulated and growth factor-dependent process,and is currently referred to as the formation of new vessels from preexisting blood vessels.Experimental and clinical studies have unequivocally reported that hepatic angiogenesis,irrespective of aetiology,occurs in conditions of chronic liver diseases(CLDs) characterized by perpetuation of cell injury and death,inflammatory response and progressive fibrogenesis.Angiogenesis and related changes in liver vascular architecture,that in turn concur to increase vascular resistance and portal hypertension and to decrease parenchymal perfusion,have been proposed to favour fibrogenic progression of the disease towards the end-point of cirrhosis.Moreover,hepatic angiogenesis has also been proposed to modulate the genesis of portal-systemic shunts and increase splanchnic blood flow,thus potentially affecting complications of cirrhosis.Hepatic angiogenesis is also crucial for the growth and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma.Recent literature has identified a number of cellular and molecular mechanisms governing the cross-talk between angiogenesis and fibrogenesis,with a specifi c emphasis on the crucial role of hypoxic conditions and hepatic stellate cells,particularly when activated to the myofibroblast-like pro-fibrogenic.Experimental anti-angiogenic therapy has been proven to be effective in limiting the progression of CLDs in animal models.From a clinical point of view,anti-angiogenic therapy is currently emerging as a new pharmacologic intervention in patients with advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis.Claudia Paternostro Ezio David Erica Novo Maurizio Parola 2010World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,3:23
4人HCN4通道的滞后现象:影响窦房结起搏的潜在决定因素(英文)显示文摘超极化活化环核苷酸门控(hyperpolarization-activated cyclic-nucleotide-gated,HCN)通道参与调制心脏跳动的节律和速率。与HCN1和HCN2有所不同,慢通道HCN4可能不存在电压依赖的滞后现象。本研究采用单细胞膜片钳方法,在稳定转染hHCN4的HEK293细胞上进行电生理记录,观察hHCN4通道是否存在滞后现象,以及cAMP对其的调制作用;同时采用实时定量RT-PCR方法检测窦房结和心房组织中HCNs的表达。电压钳实验结果显示hHCN4电流(Ih)激活随着保持电位超极化的变化而向去极化方向移动。三角电位变化钳(triangular ramp)和动作电位钳的结果也显示了hHCN4的滞后现象。cAMP增加Ih电流幅度,且使电流激活向去极化方向移动,从而改变内源性hHCN4滞后行为。RT-PCR结果显示,人窦房结组织主要表达HCN4,占75%,HCN1占21%,HCN2占3%,HCN3占0.7%。以上结果提示,人窦房结组织主要表达HCN4亚型,hHCN4的Ih存在电压依赖性的滞后现象,且受cAMP调制。由此推断,hHCN4通道的滞后现象可能在窦房结起搏活动中起到了关键作用。萧永福 Natalie Chandler Halina Dobrzynski Eric S.Richardson Erica M.TenBroek Joshua J.Wilhelm Vinod Sharma Anthony Varghese Mark R.Boyett Paul A.Iaizzo Daniel C.Sigg 2010生理学报2010,62,1:10
5铁路用塑料轨枕与合成材料轨枕设计方法分析显示文摘轨枕是有砟轨道结构中重要的部件,目前轨枕材料主要是木材、钢材和混凝土。近年来,由于耐久性好、不易腐蚀、便于运输铺设等特性,塑料轨枕与合成材料轨枕在世界铁路领域逐渐得到发展和应用。目前尚无塑料轨枕与合成材料轨枕的设计规范,仅依据工程经验及相关技术指南来设计。本文总结梳理了不同材质轨枕的使用和设计情况,对比了不同材质轨枕的材料特性、伤损类型及伤损主要影响因素,重点分析了目前常用的容许应力法和极限状态法2种结构设计方法的特点。对比分析结果表明,极限状态设计法具有更大优势。建议利用该方法对塑料轨枕与合成材料轨枕开展标准设计和产品优化工作。尤瑞林 Erica Andrade Silva Sakdirat Kaewunruen 2017铁道建筑2017,57,8:9
6Thiazolidinedione treatment inhibits bile duct proliferation and fibrosis in a rat model of chronic cholestasis显示文摘AIM: To investigate the effects of troglitazone (TGZ), an anti-diabetic drug which activates peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ), for liver tissue repair, and the development of ductular reaction, following common bile duct ligation (BDL) in rats.METHODS: Rats were supplemented with TGZ (0.2% w/w in the pelleted food) for 1 wk before BDL or sham operation.Animals were killed at 1, 2, or 4 wk after surgery.RESULTS: The development of liver fibrosis was reduced in rats receiving TGZ, as indicated by significant decreases of procollagen type Ⅰ gene expression and liver hydroxyproline levels. Accumulation of α-smooth-muscle actin (SMA)-expressing cells surrounding newly formed bile ducts following BDL, as well as total hepatic levels of SMA were partially inhibited by TGZ treatment, indicating the presence of a reduced number and/or activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC) and myofibroblasts. Development of the ductular reaction was inhibited by TGZ, as indicated by histochemical evaluation and hepatic activity of γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT).CONCLUSION: Treatment with thiazolidinedione reduces ductular proliferation and fibrosis in a model of chronic cholestasis, and suggests that limiting cholangiocyte proliferation may contribute to the lower development of scarring in this system.Fabio Marra Raffaella DeFranco Gaia Robino Erica Novo Eva Efsen Sabrina Pastacaldi Elena Zamara Alessandro Vercelli Benedetta Lottini Carlo Spirli Mario Strazzabosco Massimo Pinzani Maurizio Parola 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,32:9

8Interventions to improve sarcopenia in cirrhosis: A systematic review显示文摘BACKGROUND Sarcopenia, i.e., muscle loss is now a well-recognized complication of cirrhosis and in cases of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease can contribute to accelerate liver fibrosis leading to cirrhosis. Hence, it is imperative to study interventions which targets to improve sarcopenia in cirrhosis.AIM To examine the relationship between interventions such nutritional supplementation, exercise, combined life style intervention, testosterone replacement and trans jugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(TIPS) to improve muscle mass in cirrhosis.METHODS We search PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane between June-August 2018, without a limiting period and the types of articles(RCTs, clinical trial, comparative study)in adult patients with sarcopenia and cirrhosis. The primary outcome of interest was improvement in muscle mass, strength and physical function interventions mentioned above. In the screening process, 154 full text articles were included in the review and 129 studies were excluded.RESULTS We identified 24 studies that met review inclusion criteria. The studies were diverse in terms of the design, setting, interventions, and outcome measurements.We performed only qualitative synthesis of evidence due to heterogeneity amongst studies. Risk of bias was medium in most of the included studies and low quality of evidence showed improvement in the muscle mass, strength and physical function following aerobic exercise. 60% of the included studies on the nutritional intervention, 100% of the studies on testosterone replacement in hypogonadal men and trans-jugular portosystemic shunt were proved to be effective in improving sarcopenia in cirrhosis.CONCLUSION Although the quality of evidence is low, the findings of our systematic review suggest improvement in the sarcopenia in cirrhosis with exercise, nutritional interventions, hormonal and TIPS interventions. High quality randomized controlled trials needed to further strengthen these findings.Maliha Naseer Erica P Turse Ali Syed Francis E Dailey Mallak Zatreh Veysel Tahan 2019World Journal of Clinical Cases2019,7,2:8
9Screening pre-bariatric surgery patients for esophageal disease with esophageal capsule endoscopy显示文摘AIM:To determine if esophageal capsule endoscopy(ECE)is an adequate diagnostic alternative to esophagogastroduodenoscopy(EGD)in pre-bariatric surgery patients.METHODS:We conducted a prospective pilot study to assess the diagnostic accuracy of ECE(PillCam ESO2,Given Imaging)vs conventional EGD in pre-bariatric surgery patients.Patients who were scheduled for bariatric surgery and referred for pre-operative EGD were prospectively enrolled.All patients underwent ECE followed by standard EGD.Two experienced gastroenterologists blinded to the patient’s history and the findings of the EGD reviewed the ECE and documented their findings.The gold standard was the findings on EGD.RESULTS:Ten patients with an average body mass index of 50 kg/m2were enrolled and completed the study.ECE identified 11 of 14(79%)positive esophageal/gastroesophageal junction(GEJ)findings and 14of 17(82%)combined esophageal and gastric findings identified on EGD.Fisher’s exact test was used to compare the findings and no significant difference was found between ECE and EGD(P=0.64 for esophageal/GEJ and P=0.66 for combined esophageal and gastric findings respectively).Of the positive esophageal/GEJ findings,ECE failed to identify the following:hiatal hernia in two patients,mild esophagitis in two patients,and mild Schatzki ring in two patients.ECE was able to identify the entire esophagus in 100%,gastric cardia in0%,gastric body in 100%,gastric antrum in 70%,pylorus in 60%,and duodenum in 0%.CONCLUSION:There were no significant differences in the likelihood of identifying a positive finding using ECE compared with EGD in preoperative evaluation of bariatric patients.Ashish Shah Erica Boettcher Marianne Fahmy Thomas Savides Santiago Horgan Garth R Jacobsen Bryan J Sandler Michael Sedrak Denise Kalmaz 2013World Journal of Gastroenterology2013,19,37:7
10Clinically relevant factors associated with quantitative optical coherence tomography angiography metrics in deep capillary plexus in patients with diabetes显示文摘Background:To test clinically relevant factors associated with quantitative artifact-free deep capillary plexus(DCP)metrics in patients with diabetes mellitus(DM).Methods:563 eligible eyes(221 with no diabetic retinopathy[DR],135 with mild DR,130 with moderate DR,and 77 with severe DR)from 334 subjects underwent optical coherence tomography-angiography(OCT-A)with a swept-source OCT(Triton DRI-OCT,Topcon,Inc.,Tokyo,Japan).Strict criteria were applied to exclude from analysis those DCP images with artifacts and of poor quality,including projection artifacts,motion artifacts,blurriness,signal loss,B-scan segmentation error,or low-quality score.A customized MATLAB program was then used to quantify DCP morphology from the artifact-free DCP images by calculating three metrics:foveal avascular zone(FAZ),vessel density(VD),and fractal dimension(FD).Results:166(29.5%)eyes were excluded after quality control,leaving in the analysis 397 eyes(170 with no DR,101 with mild DR,90 with moderate DR,36 with severe DR)from 250 subjects.In the multiple regression models,larger FAZ area was associated with more severe DR(β=0.687;p=0.037),shorter axial length(AL)(β=−0.171;p=0.003),thinner subfoveal choroid thickness(β=−0.122;p=0.031),and lower body mass index(BMI)(β=−0.090;p=0.047).Lower VD was associated with more severe DR(β=−0.842;p=0.001),shorter AL(β=0.107;p=0.039),and poorer visual acuity(VA)(β=−0.133;p=0.021).Lower FD was associated with more severe DR(β=−0.891;p<0.001)and with older age(β=−0.142;p=0.004).Conclusions:Quantitative artifact-free DCP metrics are associated with VA,DR severity,AL,subfoveal choroidal thickness,age,and BMI in diabetic patients.The effects of ocular and systemic factors should be considered for meaningful interpretations of DCP changes in DM patients.Fang Yao Tang Erica O.Chan Zihan Sun Raymond Wong Jerry Lok Simon Szeto Jason C.Chan Alexander Lam Clement C.Tham Danny S.Ng Carol Y.Cheung 2020Eye and Vision2020,7,1:7
11Ethanol injection is highly effective for hepatocellular carcinoma smaller than 2cm显示文摘AIM:To analyze the long-term prognosis in a cohort of western cirrhotic patients with single hepatocellular carcinoma treated with ethanol injection.METHODS:One-hundred forty-eight patients with solitary hepatocellular carcinoma were enrolled.The tumor diameter was lower than 2 cm in 47 patients but larger in the remaining 101 patients.The impact of some pretreatment clinical and laboratory parameters and of tumor recurrence on patients' survival was assessed.RESULTS:Among the pre-treatment parameters,only a tumor diameter of less than 2 cm was an independent prognostic factor of survival.The occurrence of new nodules in other liver segments and the neoplastic portal invasion were linked to a poorer prognosis at univariate analysis.Patients with a single hepatocellular carcinoma smaller than 2 cm showed a better 5-year cumulativesurvival(73.0% vs 47.9%)(P = 0.009),3-year local recurrence rate(29.1% vs 51.5%)(P = 0.011),and 5-year distant intrahepatic recurrence rate(52.9% vs 62.8%)(P = 0.054) compared to patients with a larger tumor.CONCLUSION:The 5-year survival rate of patients with single hepatocellular carcinoma < 2 cm undergoing ethanol injection is excellent and comparable to that achieved using radiofrequency ablation.Maurizio Pompili Erica Nicolardi Valeria Abbate Luca Miele Laura Riccardi Marcello Covino Nicoletta De Matthaeis Antonio Grieco Raffaele Landolfi Gian Ludovico Rapaccini 2011World Journal of Gastroenterology2011,17,26:6

14Key Factors Involved in Lamb Quality from Farm to Fork in Europe显示文摘World lamb consumption is approximately 2 kg per capita with large variations between continents,e.g.,17 kg in Oceania vs.0.7 kg in North America.With less than one million tonnes,the international trade of sheep meat contributes to a small percentage of the total meat exchanged between countries.On the other hand,lamb represents the highest rate of species trading in relation to the total sheep meat produced.It is therefore likely to find a wide variability of different lamb products in the same market,and that the conservation procedures(such as refrigeration,packaging or freezing),chemical composition,especially the fat due to its implication in human health,flavour development and juiciness perception(affected,i.e.,by the feeding or the age or slaughter weight of the animal) and acceptability(based on culinary background) could be considered important indicators of this advantageous situation.In this paper some studies related to the aforementioned indicators are discussed.Carlos Saudo Erica Muela María del Mar Campo 2013Journal of Integrative Agriculture2013,12,11:5
15西藏雅鲁藏布缝合带甲查拉组:晚白垩世新特提斯洋海沟沉积?显示文摘雅鲁藏布缝合带记录了印度与亚洲板块汇聚、碰撞及碰撞后造山的信息.甲查拉组位于雅鲁藏布缝合带南侧,自建组以来一直被认为是印度-亚洲大陆碰撞后前陆盆地的深水沉积,物源来自其北侧亚洲大陆南缘的冈底斯弧.然而,一个长期令人不解的问题是:甲查拉组砂岩最年轻的碎屑锆石年龄为88Ma,考虑冈底斯弧晚白垩世-古近纪持续的岩浆活动,如果地层时代是前人基于孢粉、沟鞭藻化石提出的古新世-早始新世(65~50Ma),为何砂岩中缺乏白垩纪晚期-始新世早期(88~50Ma)的碎屑锆石?针对这个问题,本次研究对江孜-萨迦地区的甲查拉组开展了孢粉、沟鞭藻化石分析、岩石地层学、沉积学与物源分析等工作.两个不同实验室的分析处理都未获得保存良好的孢粉、沟鞭藻化石;甲查拉组与宗卓组呈断层接触,岩石组合与沉积结构、构造指示海底扇沉积环境;碎屑组分、碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄和Hf同位素指示甲查拉组的物源来自冈底斯弧和中拉萨地体,最年轻的碎屑锆石年龄为84Ma.综合考虑沉积环境、物源与大地构造位置,在区域对比研究基础上,本文认为甲查拉组的时代很可能是晚白垩世(88~84Ma),代表了新特提斯洋向北俯冲阶段亚洲南缘的海沟沉积.傅焓埔 胡修棉 Erica M.CROUCH 安慰 王建刚 Eduardo GARZANTI 2018中国科学:地球科学2018,48,10:5
16以手机短信为平台的肥胖干预研究的依从性分析显示文摘目的 分析超重和肥胖成人参加以手机短信(SMS)为平台的肥胖干预研究的依从性.方法 63名受试者接受为期24周的SMS肥胖干预,计算机系统每日自动发出短信,受试者回复目标完成情况并获得评价短信,参加3次小组讨论课和进行教练电话访谈.根据干预组的受试者短信回复频率、目标完成情况进行依从性分组,运用Logistic回归方法分析SMS干预依从性的影响因素.结果 共55人完成干预,失访率为12.7%,依从性较好者占56.4%,依从性一般和较差者分别占36.3%和7.3%.依从性与体质指数(BMI)变化百分数相关(r=-0.241,P=0.026),与腰围变化百分数相关(r=-0.303,P=0.005).较好组的BMI和腰围分别下降2.26%和3.80%,明显优于一般组和较差组,差异有统计学意义(BMI:F=3.659,P=0.033;腰围:F=4.699,P=0.013).Logistic回归显示年龄大(OR=1.108,95% CI:0.997 ~1.231)、肥胖体型(OR=12.974,95% CI:1.245~135.195)、自报目标合适个数多(OR=1.451,95% CI:0.974 ~2.162)、早期体重减少(OR=10.982,95% CI:1.608 ~75.007)、早晨回复短信(OR=6.725,95% CI:1.098 ~ 41.201)是依从性的有利因素,减重期望过高(OR=0.055,95% CI:0.005 ~0.626)是不利因素.结论 以SMS为平台的肥胖干预依从性良好,SMS有助于实现超重和肥胖者对行为进行自我监测,依从性与减重效果显著相关,依从性好能够提高减重效果.林深婷 王燕芳 LIN Pao-hwa Gary Bennett Erica Levine 常翠青 王海俊 2013中华健康管理学杂志2013,7,3:5
17Membrane-bound mucins and mucin terminal glycans expression in idiopathic or Helicobacter pylori, NSAID associated peptic ulcers显示文摘AIM:To determine the expression of membrane-bound mucins and glycan side chain sialic acids in Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori)-associated,non-steroidal inflammatory drug(NSAID)-associated and idiopathic-gastric ulcers.METHODS:We studied a cohort of randomly selected patients with H.pylori(group 1,n=30),NSAID(group 2,n=18),combined H.pylori and NSAID associated gastric ulcers(group 3,n=24),and patients with idiopathic gastric ulcers(group 4,n=20).Immunohistochemistry for MUC1,MUC4,MUC17,and staining for Erythrina cristagalli agglutinin and Sambucus nigra agglutinin(SNA)lectins was performed on sections from the ulcer margins.RESULTS:Staining intensity of MUC17 was higher in H.pylori ulcers(group 1)than in idiopathic ulcers(group4),11.05±3.67 vs 6.93±4.00 for foveola cells,and10.29±4.67 vs 8.00±3.48 for gland cells,respectively(P<0.0001).In contrast,MUC1 expression was higher in group 4 compared group 1,9.89±4.17 vs 2.93±5.13 in foveola cells and 7.63±4.60 vs 2.57±4.50 for glands,respectively(P<0.0001).SNA lectin staining was increased in group 4,in parallel to elevated MUC1expression,indicating more abundantα2-6 sialylation in that group.CONCLUSION:Cytoplasmic MUC17 staining was sig-nificantly decreased in the cases with idiopathic ulcer.The opposite was observed for both MUC1 and SNA lectin.This observation may reflect important pathogenic mechanisms,since different mucins with altered sialylation patterns may differ in their protection efficiency against acid and pepsin.Yaron Niv Doron Boltin Marisa Halpern Miriam Cohen Zohar Levi Alex Vilkin Sara Morgenstern Vahig Manugian Erica St Lawrence Pascal Gagneux Sukhwinder Kaur Poonam Sharma Surinder K Batra Samuel B Ho 2014World Journal of Gastroenterology2014,20,40:5
18Renal function and physical fitness after 12-mo supervised training in kidney transplant recipients显示文摘AIM To evaluate the effect of a 12-mo supervised aerobic and resistance training, on renal function and exercise capacity compared to usual care recommendations.METHODS Ninety-nine kidney transplant recipients(KTRs) were assigned to interventional exercise(Group A; n = 52) and a usual care cohort(Group B; n = 47). Blood and urine chemistry, exercise capacity, muscular strength, anthropometric measures and health-related quality of life(HRQo L) were assessed at baseline, and after 6 and 12 mo. Group A underwent a supervised training three times per week for 12 mo. Group B received only general recommendations about home-based physical activities.RESULTS Eighty-five KTRs completed the study(Group A, n = 44; Group B, n = 41). After 12 mo, renal function remained stable in both groups. Group A significantly increased maximum workload(+13 W, P = 0.0003), V'O2 peak(+3.1 mL/kg per minute, P = 0.0099), muscular strength in plantar flexor(+12 kg, P = 0.0368), height in the countermovement jump(+1.9 cm, P = 0.0293) and decreased in Body Mass Index(-0.5 kg/m^2, P = 0.0013). HRQo L significantly improved in physical function(P = 0.0019), physical-role limitations(P = 0.0321) and social functioning scales(P = 0.0346). Noimprovements were found in Group B.CONCLUSION Twelve-month of supervised aerobic and resistance training improves the physiological variables related to physical fitness and cardiovascular risks without consequences on renal function. Recommendations alone are not sufficient to induce changes in exercise capacity of KTRs. Our study is an example of collaborative working between transplant centres, sports medicine and exercise facilities.Giulio Sergio Roi Giovanni Mosconi Valentina Totti Maria Laura Angelini Erica Brugin Patrizio Sarto Laura Merlo Sergio Sgarzi Michele Stancari Paola Todeschini Gaetano La Manna Andrea Ermolao Ferdinando Tripi Lucia Andreoli Gianluigi Sella Alberto Anedda Laura Stefani Giorgio Galanti Rocco Di Michele Franco Merni Manuela Trerotola Daniela Storani Alessandro Nanni Costa 2018World Journal of Transplantation2018,8,1:4

20Coronary artery calcium score on low-dose computed tomography for lung cancer screening显示文摘AIM: To evaluate the feasibility of coronary artery calcium score(CACS) on low-dose non-gated chest CT(ngCCT).METHODS: Sixty consecutive individuals(30 males; 73 ± 7 years) scheduled for risk stratification by means of unenhanced ECG-triggered cardiac computed to-mography(gCCT) underwent additional unenhanced ngCCT. All CT scans were performed on a 64-slice CT scanner(Somatom Sensation 64 Cardiac, Siemens, Germany). CACS was calculated using conventional methods/scores(Volume, Mass, Agatston) as previ-ously described in literature. The CACS value obtained were compared. The Mayo Clinic classification was used to stratify cardiovascular risk based on Agatston CACS. Differences and correlations between the two methods were compared. A P-value < 0.05 was considered sig-nificant.RESULTS: Mean CACS values were significantly higher for gCCT as compared to ngCCT(Volume: 418 ± 747 vs 332 ± 597; Mass: 89 ± 151 vs 78 ± 141; Agatston: 481 ± 854 vs 428 ± 776; P < 0.05). The correlation between the two values was always very high(Volume: r = 0.95; Mass: r = 0.97; Agatston: r = 0.98). Of the 6 patients with 0 Agatston score on gCCT, 2(33%) showed an Agatston score > 0 in the ngCCT. Of the 3 patients with 1-10 Agatston score on gCCT, 1(33%) showed an Agatston score of 0 in the ngCCT. Overall, 23(38%) patients were reclassified in a different car-diovascular risk category, mostly(18/23; 78%) shifting to a lower risk in the ngCCT. The estimated radiation dose was significantly higher for gCCT(DLP 115.8 ± 50.7 vs 83.8 ± 16.3; Effective dose 1.6 ± 0.7 mSv vs 1.2 ± 0.2 mSv; P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: CACS assessment is feasible on ngCCT; the variability of CACS values and the associated re-stratification of patients in cardiovascular risk groups should be taken into account.Teresa Arcadi Erica Maffei Nicola Sverzellati Cesare Mantini Andrea I Guaricci Carlo Tedeschi Chiara Martini Ludovico La Grutta Filippo Cademartiri 2014World Journal of Radiology2014,6,6:4
