Risk factors of EV progression were evaluated by multivariate Cox regression model, and the predictive value of EUS for EV progression was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000The cumulative incidence of EV progression was 2.3% (7/299), 14.8% (44/297), 33.7% (96/285) and 40.0% (120/273) at 6 months, 12 months, 18 months and 24 months of follow-up, respectively. The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the diameter of peri-ECV (P=0.011 2, HR=1.323 2, 95%CI: 1.065 6-1.642 9), the number of peri-ECV (P=0.000 1, HR=1.366 6, 95%CI: 1.163 4-1.605 2) and para-ECV diameter (P=0.000 2, HR=1.364 1, 95%CI: 1.155 8-1.610 0) were risk factors for EV progression. The use of nucleoside analogues treating HBV (P=0.002 0, HR=0.496 9, 95%CI: 0.318 6-0.775 1) and non-selective β-blockers descending portal venous pressure (P=0.076 5, HR=0.573 2, 95%CI: 0.309 7-1.061 1)were the protective factors for EV progression. The results of ROC curve analysis showed that the diameter of peri-ECV[P<0.001, area under the curve (AUC)=0.850, 95%CI: 0.804-0.895], the number of peri-ECV (P<0.001, AUC=0.831, 95%CI: 0.784-0.878), the diameter of para-ECV (P<0.001, AUC=0.924, 95%CI: 0.895-0.954), and the number of para-ECV (P<0.001, AUC=0.761, 95%CI: 0.704-0.817) had higher predictive value for EV progression; and the optimum cut-off values of each index were 1.85 mm, 3.5, 3.35 mm, and 4.5, respectively. The accuracies of prediction for EV progression were 76.60%, 75.19%, 84.48% and 70.29%, respectively. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000EUS can be used to predict EV progression in HBV-related hepatocirrhosis patients. Peri-ECV diameter>1.85 mm, number>3.5, and para-ECV diameter>3.35 mm, number>4.5 suggest a high risk of EV progression. For patients with HBV-related hepatocirrhosis complicated with mild EV, nucleoside analogues to anti-HBV and non-selective β-blockers to reduce portal hypertension can prevent EV progression. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Key words: \u0000Endoscopy, digestive system; Liver cirrhosis; Esophageal varices; Endoscopic ultrasonography; Predict","PeriodicalId":10072,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Digestive Endoscopy","volume":"36 1","pages":"198-203"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45738933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The image clarity, microsurface pattern, microvascular pattern, demarcation line, and mucosal whitening time were observed, and value of the 3 methods in diagnosis of early gastric cancer and precancerous lesions was analyzed. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Results \u0000Image clarity of micro glandular in combination group was significantly better than that in NBI group and acetic acid spray group (χ2=8.766, P=0.003; χ2=5.273, P=0.022), and image clarity of microvascular in combination group was significantly better than that in NBI group (χ2=7.457, P=0.006). The overall diagnostic coincidence rate with pathology of combination group, NBI group, and acetic acid spray group was 91.9% (125/136), 85.3% (116/136), and 89.7% (122/136), respectively. The diagnostic sensitivity of irregular or missing microsurface, irregular or missing microvascular, obvious demarcation line, mucosal whitening time <30 s for carcinoma (including high grade intraepithelial neoplasia, early carcinoma and infiltrating carcinoma) were 92.3%, 91.3%, 92.3% and 90.4%, respectively, in the combination group, and the diagnostic specificity of above indicators were 93.8%, 93.8%, 96.9% and 90.6%, respectively, accuracy were 92.6%, 91.9%, 93.4% and 90.4%, respectively. For observation of microsurface, the combination group was superior to the NBI group (χ2=7.378, P=0.007), but there was no significant difference compared with the acetic acid spray group (χ2=0.427, P=0.513); the acetic acid spray group was superior to the NBI group (χ2=4.405, P=0.036). For observation of microvascular, the combination group was not significantly better than the NBI group (χ2=2.398, P=0.122). For observation of demarcation line, the combination group was not significantly better than the NBI group (χ2=2.722, P=0.099) and the acetic acid spray group (χ2=0.216, P=0.642). There was no difference between the acetic acid spray group and the NBI group (χ2=1.433, P=0.231) in observation of demarcation line. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Conclusion \u0000Acetic acid spray combined with NBI has a good consistency with pathological results with high diagnostic sensitivity and specificity, and can clearly show microsurface of early gastric cancers and precancerous lesions compared to single NBI. \u0000 \u0000 \u0000Key words: \u0000Diagnosis; Acetic acid, staining; Narrow-band imaging; Early gastric cancer; Precancerous lesions","PeriodicalId":10072,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Journal of Digestive Endoscopy","volume":"36 1","pages":"91-97"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43765910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
