摘要
背景:心包脂肪组织(PAT)是儿童心血管疾病的危险因素,但缺乏关于PAT厚度、面积和体积的规范数据。目的:建立中国3-18岁健康儿童MRI PAT参数的百分位数参考值。研究类型:前瞻性。研究对象:218名健康儿童,分为3-10岁(男125例,男62例)和10-18岁(男93例,男53例)。场强/序列:3.0 T平衡稳态自由进动序列。评估:PAT的厚度、面积和体积。统计检验:学生t检验、Mann-Whitney U检验、Pearson相关、位置规模和形状的广义相加模型、类内相关系数(ICC)。结果:PAT体积在总体上(男孩:32.7±16.2 mL,女孩:28.2±10.0 mL, p = 0.179)和儿童期组(男孩:22.9±7.9 vs女孩:22.9±6.6 mL, p = 0.954)无显著性差异,但青春期男孩体积高于女孩(44.1±15.9 vs 36.9±8.4 mL)。在两个年龄组中,男孩右心室游离壁(RVFW)的PAT厚度都更大。PAT体积与年龄(r = 0.672)和BSA (r = 0.741)呈正相关。不同年龄的百分位曲线显示PAT体积呈进行性增加,没有明显的平台,在10 - 14岁之间增长最快。bsa特异性曲线显示PAT参数逐渐增加,男孩的趋势更陡峭。几乎所有PAT参数测量的观察者之间和观察者内部的一致性都达到了极好的水平(95% CI > 0.75)。结论:本研究提出了中国健康儿童心包脂肪组织的性别、年龄和bsa特异性参考值,并显示了发育模式和性别差异,这可能为未来的临床和研究应用提供潜在的信息。证据等级:2。技术功效:第二阶段。
Age-, Body Surface Area-, and Sex-Specific Reference Values for Pericardial Adipose Tissue in Children: An MRI Study.
Background: Pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) is a cardiovascular disease risk factor in children, but normative data for PAT thickness, area, and volume are lacking.
Purpose: To establish the percentile reference values for MRI PAT parameters in healthy Chinese children aged 3-18.
Study type: Prospective.
Subjects: 218 healthy children divided into 3-10 years (n = 125, 62 males) and 10-18 years (n = 93, 53 males).
Field strength/sequence: Balanced steady-state free-precession cine sequence at 3.0 T.
Assessment: PAT thickness, area and volume.
Statistical tests: Student's t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Pearson correlation, the generalized additive model for location scale and shape, and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC). A p value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: PAT volume showed no significant sex difference in the overall (boys: 32.7 ± 16.2 mL, girls: 28.2 ± 10.0 mL, p = 0.179) or childhood group (boys: 22.9 ± 7.9 vs. girls: 22.9 ± 6.6 mL, p = 0.954), but adolescent boys had a higher volume than girls (44.1 ± 15.9 vs. 36.9 ± 8.4 mL). PAT thickness at the right ventricular free wall (RVFW) was greater in boys across both age groups. PAT volume correlated strongly with age (r = 0.672) and BSA (r = 0.741). Age-specific percentile curves showed a progressive PAT volume increase with no clear plateau, with the most rapid growth between ages 10 and 14. BSA-specific curves revealed gradual PAT parameter increases, with steeper trends in boys. Good to excellent inter- and intra-observer agreement was observed for almost all PAT parameter measurements (95% CI > 0.75).
Conclusion: This study proposes sex-, age-, and BSA-specific reference values for pericardial adipose tissue in healthy Chinese children and showed developmental patterns and sex differences that may have potential to inform future clinical and research applications.
