Age- and gender-matched controls (n = 40) were also recruited. LV structure and function were evaluated using conventional echocardiography and three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (3DSTE). Global longitudinal strain (GLS), global circumferential strain (GCS), global area strain (GAS), and global radial strain (GRS) were all measured using 3DSTE.Results: Compared with the controls with absolute advantage of LV normal geometry, LVR was more frequently present in the two T2DM groups, with the largest proportion in those with T2DM and MRD (P < 0.001). Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and MRD were both significant risk factors for LVR in T2DM patients. The detection rates of LV diastolic dysfunction and subclinical systolic dysfunction were significantly higher in the T2DM groups than in the controls (P = 0.000). Moreover, the two case groups also showed significantly lower strain values in multiple directions than the controls (all P < 0.05). FPG was significantly associated with LV diastolic dysfunction, whereas FPG and MRD were both significantly associated with subclinical LV systolic dysfunction in T2DM patients.Conclusions: The combined use of conventional echocardiography and 3DSTE allowed the timely detection of early cardiac damage in T2DM patients with or without MRD.","PeriodicalId":50130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasonics","volume":" ","pages":"447-455"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140877821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this study was to assess the use of US in evaluating ramp lesions preoperatively and intraoperatively.Methods: Eighty-two knees that underwent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction between January 2022 and June 2023 were included to assess the ramp lesion complication rate and instability using arthroscopic findings. The detection rate of ramp lesions using US at the initial visit and preoperatively was also investigated. The test-retest reliability was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient and analyzed using two-way random effects and absolute agreement. The patients were divided into two groups based on the presence or absence of ramp lesions, and these data were compared using Student's t-test. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05.Results: On ultrasound examination, 90.0% of the cases had a ramp lesion at the initial examination, of which 22.2% were poorly delineated on the day of surgery. In the cases where the ramp lesion was unstable at the time of surgery, it could be delineated using US. In the cases where the ramp lesion was stable, it was difficult to delineate the lesion using US.Conclusions: Unstable ramp lesions complicating ACL injuries could be detected using US.","PeriodicalId":50130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasonics","volume":" ","pages":"483-489"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141263146","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its management and evaluation to avoid fetal risks have not been elucidated. The aim of this study was to develop a novel method to evaluate fetal risks, including FGR and fetal dysfunction via frequent ultrasound examinations.Methods: A 28-year-old pregnant woman was diagnosed with FIUVV via ultrasound at 26 weeks of gestation and admitted to our hospital. Ultrasound examinations were performed two to three times weekly to evaluate size and shape of the FIUVV and umbilical vein blood flow at the inflow and outflow sites of the FIUVV.Results: The outflow site of the FIUVV was constricted and collapsed, and the blood flow velocity at the inflow site of the FIUVV was decreased. At 32 weeks of gestation, spontaneous echo contrast (SEC), which indicates increased echogenicity, appeared. At 35 weeks of gestation, the patient noticed decreased fetal movement, and CTG showed non-reassuring fetal status. SEC in the FIUVV was remarkable. Fetal movement could not be confirmed at ultrasound. Cesarean section was performed and a 1,854-g healthy infant was delivered with an umbilical cord arterial pH of 7.266.Conclusion: The echographic changes, such as decreased umbilical vein blood flow and SEC, in FIUVV observed in this case could indicate thrombus formation, which can lead to fetal dysfunction. Frequent ultrasound examinations can help determine the timing of delivery and improve the neonatal prognosis.","PeriodicalId":50130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasonics","volume":" ","pages":"477-481"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140295122","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
