摘要
目的:探讨超声弹性成像的组织定量弥散分析在早期慢性肾脏病(CKD)诊断中的价值:方法:观察组包括54名在福州第七医院接受治疗的早期慢性肾脏病患者,对照组包括40名在同一家医院接受体检的健康人。采用超声造影、彩色多普勒超声造影和超声弹性成像组织定量弥散分析对参试者的肾实质进行检查。分析并比较了两组患者的肾脏尺寸(直径、厚度和肾实质厚度)、叶间动脉血流参数和 11 个弹性特征值。采用 ROC 曲线分析法计算受体操作特征曲线下面积、临界值、灵敏度和特异性:结果:两组间叶间动脉血流参数和肾经尺寸无明显差异。与对照组相比,观察组的平均值(MEAN)下降,而蓝面积比和偏度上升(P 0.7)。值得注意的是,MEAN 的最佳临界值为 106,表明 MEAN 值小于 106 代表早期 CKD。此外,该临界值的敏感性为 80%,特异性为 81%:结论:超声弹性成像的组织定量弥散分析可利用定量弥散参数对早期 CKD 的肾实质损伤进行定量评估,其中 MEAN 参数的临界值为 106,效果尤为显著。该参数和临界值为早期检测和诊断慢性肾功能衰竭提供了一个宝贵的工具,通过早期干预可能改善患者的预后:临床试验编号:不适用。
The value of tissue quantitative diffusion analysis of ultrasound elastography in the diagnosis of early-stage chronic kidney disease.
Purpose: To explore the value of tissue quantitative diffusion analysis of ultrasound elastography in the diagnosis of early-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Methods: The observation group comprised 54 patients with early-stage CKD treated at Fuzhou No 7 Hospital, and the control group consisted of 40 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations at the same hospital. The renal parenchyma of the participants were examined using ultrasonography, color Doppler ultrasonography, and tissue quantitative diffusion analysis of ultrasound elastography. Renal dimensions (diameter, thickness, and renal parenchyma thickness), interlobar artery blood flow parameters, and 11 elastic characteristic values were analyzed and compared between the two groups. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve, cut-off values, sensitivity, and specificity were calculated using the ROC curve analysis.
Results: There were no significant differences in the blood flow parameters of the interlobar artery and the dimensions of renal meridians between the two groups. In the observation group, the mean (MEAN) decreased, while the blue area ratio and skewness, increased, compared to the control group (p < 0.05). In addition, the ROC curve revealed that the blue area ratio, MEAN, and skewness had significant diagnostic value (the area under the curve > 0.7). Notably, the best cut-off value of the MEAN was found to be 106, indicating that a MEAN value less than 106 represented early-stage CKD. Also, this cutoff value had a sensitivity of 80% and a specificity of 81%.
Conclusion: Tissue quantitative diffusion analysis of ultrasound elastography can quantitatively evaluate renal parenchymal damage in early-stage CKD using quantitative diffusion parameters, with the MEAN parameter, having a cutoff of 106, being particularly effective. This parameter and cutoff value offer a valuable tool for the early detection and diagnosis of CKD, potentially improving patient outcomes through earlier intervention.
