| 1 | Estimating steatosis and fibrosis: Comparison of acoustic structure quantification with established techniques显示文摘AIM:To compare ultrasound-based acoustic structure quantification(ASQ) with established non-invasive techniques for grading and staging fatty liver disease.METHODS:Type 2 diabetic patients at risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(n = 50) and healthy volunteers(n = 20) were evaluated using laboratory analysis and anthropometric measurements, transient elastography(TE), controlled attenuation parameter(CAP), proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1H-MRS; only available for the diabetic cohort), and ASQ.ASQ parameters mode, average and focal disturbance(FD) ratio were compared with:(1) the extent of liver fibrosis estimated from TE and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD) fibrosis scores; and(2) the amount of steatosis, which was classified according to CAP values.RESULTS:Forty-seven diabetic patients(age 67.0±8.6 years;body mass index 29.4±4.5 kg/m2)with reliable CAP measurements and all controls(age 26.5±3.2 years;body mass index 22.0±2.7 kg/m2)were included in the analysis.All ASQ parameters showed differences between healthy controls and diabetic patients(P<0.001,respectively).The ASQ FD ratio(logarithmic)correlated with the CAP(r=-0.81,P<0.001)and 1H-MRS(r=-0.43,P=0.004)results.The FD ratio[CAP<250 d B/m:107(102-109),CAP between 250 and 300 d B/m:106(102-114);CAP between 300 and 350 d B/m:105(100-112),CAP≥350 d B/m:102(99-108)]as well as mode and average parameters,were reduced in cases with advanced steatosis(ANOVA P<0.05).However,none of the ASQ parameters showed a significant difference in patients with advanced fibrosis,as determined by TE and the NAFLD fibrosis score(P>0.08,respectively).CONCLUSION:ASQ parameters correlate with steatosis,but not with fibrosis in fatty liver disease.Steatosis estimation with ASQ should be further evaluated in biopsy-controlled studies. | Thomas Karlas Joachim Berger Nikita Garnov Franziska Lindner Harald Busse Nicolas Linder Alexander Schaudinn Bettina Relke Rima Chakaroun Michael Trltzsch Johannes Wiegand Volker Keim | 2015 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2015，21，16： | 9 |
