Abstract
Abstract: Background : This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to detecting performance of muscular ultrasound for intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired weakness (ICUAW). Methods : We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane library, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang databases for articles published before July 2024. A random-effects model was utilized to derive the summary estimates of sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Additionally, the sources of heterogeneity were explored by subgroup analysis and meta-regression. Results : This meta-analysis comprised 10 prospective studies involving 561 participants, of whom 241 (42.96%) were diagnosed as ICUAW. Overall, muscular ultrasound exhibited good performance for detecting ICUAW, with the area of summary receiver operating characteristic (SROC) curve of 0.85 (95%CI 0.82-0.88), sensitivity of 0.76 (95%CI 0.70-0.81), specificity of 0.80 (95%CI 0.74-0.84), and DOR of 12.43 (95%CI 7.98-19.38). Upon predefined subgroup analysis, the rectus femoris exhibited significantly superior discriminatory ability in identifying ICUAW than the non-rectus femoris, with higher SROC (0.88 [95%CI 0.85-0.91] vs. 0.76 [95%CI 0.72-0.79], P < 0.01). Moreover, cross-sectional area was more effective than thickness, with higher specificity (0.86 [95%CI 0.80-0.91] vs. 0.74 [95%CI 0.68-0.79], P = 0.02) and SROC (0.89 [95%CI 0.86-0.92] vs. 0.76 [95%CI 0.72-0.80], P < 0.01). Furthermore, integrated analysis of these two indicators revealed that the cross-sectional area of rectus femoris was statistically superior to the thickness of rectus femoris, with higher sensitivity (0.82 [95%CI 0.74-0.87] vs. 0.75 [95%CI 0.65-0.83], P < 0.05) and AUC (0.91 [95%CI 0.88-0.93] vs. 0.80 [95%CI 0.76-0.83], P < 0.01). Conclusions : Muscular ultrasound could be a reliable tool for ICUAW detection. Compared with alternative indices, the cross-sectional area of the rectus femoris exhibits superior detection efficacy and may be considered as a valuable parameter for clinical application.
期刊介绍:
SHOCK®: Injury, Inflammation, and Sepsis: Laboratory and Clinical Approaches includes studies of novel therapeutic approaches, such as immunomodulation, gene therapy, nutrition, and others. The mission of the Journal is to foster and promote multidisciplinary studies, both experimental and clinical in nature, that critically examine the etiology, mechanisms and novel therapeutics of shock-related pathophysiological conditions. Its purpose is to excel as a vehicle for timely publication in the areas of basic and clinical studies of shock, trauma, sepsis, inflammation, ischemia, and related pathobiological states, with particular emphasis on the biologic mechanisms that determine the response to such injury. Making such information available will ultimately facilitate improved care of the traumatized or septic individual.
