    BACKGROUND & AIMS: Nucleotides have diverse effects on water and electrolyte reabsorption within the distal tubule of the nephron. As the distal tubule is important in control of renal Mg(2+) balance, we determined the effects of ATP on cellular Mg(2+) uptake in this segment. The effects of ATP on immortalized mouse distal convoluted tubule (MDCT) cells were studied by measuring Mg(2+) uptake with fluorescence techniques. The mean basal Mg(2+) uptake rate was 165 +/- 6 nM/s. ATP inhibited basal Mg(2+) uptake and hormone-stimulated Mg(2+) entry by 40%. Both P2X (P2X1-P2X5 subtypes) and P2Y2 receptor subtypes were identified in MDCT cells using differential RT-PCR. Activation of both receptor subtypes with selective agonists increased intracellular Ca(2+) concentration, P2X purinoceptors by ionotropic-gated channels, and P2Y receptors via G protein-mediated intracellular Ca(2+) release. The more relatively selective P2X agonists [beta,gamma-methylene ATP (beta,gamma-Me-ATP) and 2'- and -3'-O-(4-benzoyl-benzoyl)-ATP] inhibited arginine vasopressin (AVP)- and parathyroid hormone (PTH)-mediated Mg(2+) uptake whereas agonists more selective for P2Y purinoceptors (UTP, ADP, and 2-methylthio-ATP) were without effect. Removal of extracellular Ca(2+) diminished beta,gamma-Me-ATP-mediated increase in intracellular Ca(2+) and inhibition of AVP-stimulated Mg(2+) entry. We conclude from this information that ATP inhibited Mg(2+) uptake in MDCT cells through P2X purinoceptors expressed in this distal convoluted tubule cell line.

    背景与目标: 核苷酸对肾单位远端小管内的水和电解质重吸收有多种影响。由于远端小管在控制肾脏Mg(2) 平衡方面很重要,因此我们确定了ATP对该节段中细胞Mg(2) 摄取的影响。通过荧光技术测量Mg(2) 的摄取,研究了ATP对永生化小鼠远曲小管 (MDCT) 细胞的影响。平均基础Mg(2 +) 摄取速率为165 +/- 6 nM/s。ATP通过40% 抑制基础Mg(2 +) 摄取和激素刺激的Mg(2 +) 进入。使用差异rt-pcr在MDCT细胞中鉴定出P2X (P2X1-P2X5亚型) 和P2Y2受体亚型。选择性激动剂激活两种受体亚型均增加了细胞内Ca(2) 的浓度,离子型门控通道的P2X嘌呤受体以及通过g蛋白介导的细胞内Ca(2) 释放的P2Y受体。比较选择性的P2X激动剂 [β,γ-亚甲基ATP (β,Γ-Me-ATP) 和2 '-和-3'-O-(4-苯甲酰基)-ATP] 抑制精氨酸加压素 (AVP)-和甲状旁腺激素 (PTH) 介导的Mg(2) 摄取,而激动剂对P2Y嘌呤受体更具选择性 (UTP,ADP,和2-甲硫基-atp) 没有作用。去除细胞外Ca(2) 可减少 β,γ-Me-ATP介导的细胞内Ca(2) 的增加,并抑制AVP刺激的Mg(2) 进入。我们从该信息得出结论,ATP通过在该远端曲小管细胞系中表达的P2X嘌呤受体抑制了MDCT细胞中Mg(2) 的摄取。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: UNLABELLED:Six hundred sixty-one participants who had at least one cardiac risk factor but were without known coronary heart disease underwent low-dose multidetector computed tomography coronary angiography (MDCT-CA) and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. The association between presence of subclinical coronary calcified plaque and low bone mineral density for the middle-aged individual was not significant after multivariate adjustment. INTRODUCTION:Results of previous clinical studies assessing the relationship between osteoporosis and coronary calcification are inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between subclinical coronary calcification and osteoporosis in middle-aged men, premenopausal women, and postmenopausal women by using low-dose MDCT-CA and bone mineral density (BMD). METHODS:This study enrolled 661 participants with at least one cardiac risk factor but without known coronary artery disease (CAD). All subjects underwent low-dose MDCT-CA and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry on the same day. RESULTS:The mean age was 52.2 years for men, 44.8 years for premenopausal women, and 59.1 years for postmenopausal women. The prevalence of calcified plaques between men with normal BMD and low BMD at lumbar spine were significantly different (P=0.042). The prevalence of mixed plaque and calcified plaque between pre- and postmenopausal women with normal BMD and low BMD at lumbar spine and femoral neck were not significantly different (P>0.05). Possible association between lumbar spine, femoral neck, and total proximal femur BMD and the presence of CAP was evaluated for men, premenopausal women, and postmenopausal women using multivariate logistic regression analysis: results were not significant (P>0.05). CONCLUSION:Our study demonstrates that the association between the presence of subclinical coronary calcification and low BMD among middle-aged men and women was not significant after controlling for age and other risk factors for CAD and osteoporosis.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: BACKGROUND:To evaluate feasibility and reproducibility of quantification of perinephric hematoma volume on multidetector-row CT (MDCT). METHODS:Perinephric hematomas in 63 patients (42 males, 21 females, median age: 49 years) imaged with contrast-enhanced MDCT of the abdomen were evaluated. A semi-automated segmentation software was applied to quantify hematoma volume. Reproducibility for quantification of hematoma volume was evaluated by repeated measurements in 20 patients. Statistical analyses were performed by using Student's t test. Interobserver and intraobserver variability was evaluated by Bland-Altman plots. P < 0.05 denoted statistical significance RESULTS:Quantification of hematoma volume was feasible in all cases. One step, direct quantification of volume was possible in 21 patients (33.33%) with small hematomas that did not reach upper and lower renal poles (range: 3.12-183.98 mL; mean: 39.92 mL). Quantification of hematoma size was performed indirectly in 42 patients (66.67%) with larger hematomas that extended beyond the renal poles by subtracting the ipsilateral renal volume from the combined kidney and hematoma volumes (range: 27.08-2431.3 mL; mean: 435.31 mL). Mean quantification time was 45 and 71 s for small and large hematomas, respectively (P < 0.05). Mean intraobserver and interobserver variability for determination of hematoma volume was 0.14% (95% CI, -1.57% to 1.85%) and 2.04% (95% CI, -1.77% to 5.85%), respectively. There was no significant difference in renal volume between ipsilateral and contralateral kidneys (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION:Quantification of perinephric hematoma was feasible from MDCT data in all patients and was reproducible.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :Calcinosis is a typical feature of systemic sclerosis (SSc) and can be found in many different tissues including the superficial soft tissues, periarticular structures, muscles, and tendons. It can also provoke erosive changes on bones. Investigation is conducted most often with plain radiographs. However, when a more detailed assessment is necessary, multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) is helpful owing to its multiplanar reformat (MPR) ability. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the various appearances of calcinosis in SSc patients as visualized at MDCT.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: OBJECTIVE:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of MRI and a combination of MDCT arthrography and MR arthrography in the diagnosis of tears and cartilage abnormalities of the wrist ligaments. SUBJECTS AND METHODS:The feasibility of combining MDCT arthrography and MR arthrography and performing them with an optimized contrast solution was evaluated in vitro and in vivo. Forty-five consecutively enrolled subjects with suspected wrist ligament tears underwent MRI and a combined MDCT and MR arthrographic procedure. Two observers reviewed the images for evidence of tears and cartilage abnormalities of the scapholunate and lunotriquetral ligaments and triangular fibrocartilaginous complex. Interobserver agreement was determined with kappa statistics, and the diagnostic accuracy of each technique was calculated. RESULTS:A 1:1 solution of 2.5 mmol/L tetraazacyclododecanetetraacetic acid (DOTA)-gadolinium and 300 mg I/mL iopamidol provided adequate contrast enhancement for both in vitro and in vivo MDCT arthrographic and MR arthrographic images. Interobserver agreement was substantial for MRI (kappa = 0.61) and MR arthrography (kappa = 0.71) and almost perfect for MDCT arthrography (kappa = 0.93). The sensitivity and specificity of MRI, MDCT arthrography, and MR arthrography for tears of the scapholunate ligament were 59% and 70%, 95% and 96%, and 68% and 87% for the first observer and 77% and 83%, 95% and 100%, and 77% and 87% for the second observer. For tears of the lunotriquetral ligament, these values were 30% and 94%, 100% and 94%, and 60% and 97% for the first observer and 50% and 97%, 90% and 100%, and 50% and 94% for the second observer. The three techniques appeared equivalent for complete tears of the scapholunate and lunotriquetral ligaments, but partial tears were significantly better visualized with MDCT arthrography. The sensitivity and specificity of MRI, MDCT arthrography, and MR arthrography for triangular fibrocartilaginous complex tears were 27% and 100%, 100% and 100%, and 82% and 100% for the first observer and 45% and 100%, 100% and 100%, and 82% and 100% for the second observer. For cartilage abnormalities, these values were 30% and 100%, 100% and 100%, and 30% and 100% for the first observer and 10% and 100%, 100% and 100%, and 40% and 100% for the second observer. CONCLUSION:MDCT arthrography appears more accurate than MRI and MR arthrography, particularly for discerning partial tears of the scapholunate and lunotriquetral ligaments that do not necessitate surgical therapy.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:The aim of the study was to compare the influence of different reconstruction algorithms on quantitative emphysema analysis in patients with severe emphysema. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Twenty-five patients suffering from severe emphysema were included in the study. All patients underwent inspiratory MDCT (Aquilion-16, slice thickness 1/0.8mm). The raw data were reconstructed using six different algorithms: bone kernel with beam hardening correction (BHC), soft tissue kernel with BHC; standard soft tissue kernel, smooth soft tissue kernel (internal reference standard), standard lung kernel, and high-convolution kernel. The only difference between image data sets was the algorithm employed to reconstruct the raw data, no additional radiation was required. CT data were analysed using self-written emphysema detection and quantification software providing lung volume, emphysema volume (EV), emphysema index (EI) and mean lung density (MLD). RESULTS:The use of kernels with BHC led to a significant decrease in MLD (5%) and EI (61-79%) in comparison with kernels without BHC. The absolute difference (from smooth soft tissue kernel) in MLD ranged from -0.6 to -6.1 HU and were significant different for all kernels. The EV showed absolute differences between -0.05 and -0.4 L and was significantly different for all kernels. The EI showed absolute differences between -0.8 and -5.1 and was significantly different for all kernels. CONCLUSION:The use of kernels with BHC led to a significant decrease in MLD and EI. The absolute differences between different kernels without BHC were small but they were larger than the known interscan variation in patients. Thus, for follow-up examinations the same reconstruction algorithm has to be used and use of BHC has to be avoided.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: CONCLUSION:Three-dimensional multi-detector computed tomography (3D MDCT) analysis of the upper airway suggested that the lengthening of the upper airway in the absence of volumetric change may independently contribute to the severity of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) in adults. OBJECTIVES:We sought to investigate the relationships among the length and volume of the upper airway to the severity of OSAS. METHODS:A total of 73 subjects underwent 3D MDCT scanning and standard polysomnography. We measured the upper airway length (UAL), which was defined as the vertical distance from the hard palate to the hyoid in the mid-sagittal plane. We also used the height-adjusted UAL for analyses. Upper airway volume was measured using a 3D reconstruction of the cross-sectional area from the hard palate to the hyoid. RESULTS:The adjusted UAL showed a significant positive correlation with the apnea hypopnea index (AHI, r = 0.523, p < 0.000) and was a significant variable for predicting the AHI of OSAS patients in multiple stepwise regression analysis. Although the severe OSAS group had a greater adjusted UAL compared with that of other groups (p = 0.001), the volume of the upper airway did not show differences among groups.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: OBJECTIVE:Determination of left ventricular (LV) volumes and global function parameters from MDCT data sets is usually based on short-axis reformations from primarily reconstructed axial images, which prolong postprocessing time. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of LV volumetry and global LV function assessment from axial images in comparison with short-axis image reformations. SUBJECTS AND METHODS:This study consisted of 20 patients with either coronary artery disease or dilated cardiomyopathy. We evaluated MDCT results using cine MRI as the reference technique. RESULTS:LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) and end-systolic volume (LVESV) were significantly overestimated by the axial MDCT approach in comparison with volume measurements from short-axis CT image reformations. The mean LV ejection fraction (LVEF) was not significantly different (41.2% vs 42.7%). Short-axis and axial MDCT determination of LVEF revealed a systematic underestimation by a mean +/- SD of -2.1% +/- 3.6% versus -3.6% +/- 8.2%, respectively, when compared with LVEF values based on cine MRI. The interobserver variability for volume and function measurements from axial images (LVEDV = 8.5%, LVESV = 10.8%, LVEF = 9.6%) was slightly higher than those measurements from short-axis reformations (LVEDV = 7.2%, LVESV = 9.5%, LVEF = 8.7%). The mean total evaluation time was significantly shorter using axial images (14.1 +/- 3.9 min) compared with short-axis reformations (16.9 +/- 5.2 min) (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION:Determination of LV volumes and assessment of global LV function from axial MDCT image reformations is feasible and time efficient. This approach might be a clinically useful alternative to established short-axis-based measurements in patients with normal or near-normal LV function. A progressive underestimation of LVEF with increasing LV volumes may limit the clinical applicability of the axial approach in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: OBJECTIVE:The purposes of this study were to determine the reproducibility of quantitative colorectal cancer perfusion measurements using dynamic contrast-enhanced MDCT, and to compare this with measurements from skeletal muscle. SUBJECTS AND METHODS:Ten patients (mean age, 67 years; six men, four women) with histologically proven colorectal cancer were examined prospectively using 4-MDCT. Perfusion studies (cine mode; 4 x 5 mm collimation; 1 acquisition/s; 65 seconds total) were performed through the tumor epicenter after IV bolus contrast administration (iopamidol 340, 100 mL; 5 mL/s) and repeated within 48 hours. Quantitative values for blood volume, blood flow, mean transit time, and permeability were determined using commercial software. Two regions of interest were studied on the axial image: one within the tumor and another within the left gluteal muscle. Measurement reproducibility was assessed using Bland-Altman statistics. RESULTS:For the tumor, the mean difference (95% limits of agreement) was -0.04 mL/100 g tissue (-2.50, 2.42); 8.80 (-50.5, 68.0) mL/100 g tissue/min; -0.99 (-8.19, 6.20) seconds; and 1.20 (-5.42, 7.83) mL/100 g tissue/min for blood volume, blood flow, mean transit time, and permeability, respectively. For muscle, the mean difference (95% limits of agreement) was 0.02 (-1.40, 1.43), 6.60 (-11.2, 24.3), -3.76 (-16.87, 9.35), and 1.30 (-4.68, 7.28), respectively. CONCLUSION:Quantitative perfusion measurements are reproducible. Measurements from tumor are less variable than from skeletal muscle.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: OBJECTIVE:High reproducibility on coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring is a key requirement in monitoring the progression of coronary atherosclerosis. Retrospective ECG-gated helical CT has been shown to be superior to prospective gating helical CT in the reproducibility of CAC measurements. However, it brings with it a high level of radiation exposure. The purpose of this study was to compare low- and standard-dose protocols in the variability of CAC scores and in image quality, thereby assessing the feasibility of low-dose retrospective ECG-gated helical CT in CAC measurements. SUBJECTS AND METHODS:Eighty-six patients with CAC were scanned using a tube current setting of 100 mA once and then a tube current setting equivalent to the patient's body weight twice. CAC scores (Agatston and volume) and interscan variability were evaluated. The mean and SD of the CT attenuation values in regions of interest in the aorta were measured, and the value (mean + 2 x SD) was obtained. RESULTS:A high correlation of log(10) (Agatston score + 1) was observed between sequential helical CT scans (r = 0.998). The variability in CAC measurements ranged from 11% to 12% for both the Agatston and volume scores. With the tube current equivalent to body weight, the value (mean + 2 x SD) did not exceed a CT attenuation value of 130 H. CONCLUSION:Low-dose retrospective ECG-gated helical CT-yielding low variability and achieving the level of image quality needed to measure CAC-can be used to monitor patients with coronary atherosclerosis.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :Scimitar syndrome with bilateral abnormal venous drainage and horseshoe lung is extremely rare. These rare complex anomalies were diagnosed in a 5-year-old boy by 64-slice multidetector CT (MDCT). This technique provides high-quality visualization of vascular, bronchial and parenchymal structures in a single session, such that no further invasive techniques are required. One obvious disadvantage of MDCT is the radiation exposure, especially in paediatric patients. The use of a single phase of contrast material administration reduces radiation exposure. The workstation platforms of MDCT systems allow multiplanar 2-D and 3-D postprocessing. As a result, various complex pathologies, such as that discussed here, can be diagnosed following a single imaging session with a certain precision.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :The double contrast barium enema of the colon continues to be a diffused conventional radiological technique and allows for the diagnosis of neoplastic and inflammatory pathology. After the '70s, a massive initiative is undertaken to simplify, perfect and encode the method of the double contrast barium enema: Altaras from Germany, Miller from USA and Cittadini from Italy are responsible for the perfection of this technique in the last 30 years. The tailored patient preparation, a perfect technique of execution and a precise radiological documentation are essentials steps to obtain a reliable examination. The main limit of double contrast enema is that it considers the pathology only from the mucosal surface. In neoplastic pathology evaluation the main limit is the "T" parameter staging, but more limited are the "N" and "M" parameters evaluation. Today the double contrast technique continues to be a refined, sensitive and specific diagnostic method, moreover, diagnostic results cannot compete with the new CT multislice techniques (CT-enteroclysis and virtual colonoscopy) which can examine both the lumen and the wall of the colon. The double contrast is a cheap and simple examination but in the next future is predictably a progressive substitution of conventional radiology from new multislice techniques, because the cross sectional imaging is more frequently able to detect causes of the symptoms whether resulting both from colonic or non colonic origin.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :To determine the CT findings and assess their diagnostic performance in differentiating early perforated appendicitis from nonperforated appendicitis, and to compare therapeutic approaches and clinical outcomes between two types of appendicitis. Our retrospective study was approved by our institutional review board and informed consent was waived. From July 2012 to July 2013, 339 patients [mean age 40.8 years; age range 19-80 years; 183 male (mean age 40.5 years; age range 19-79 years) and 156 female (mean age 41.2 years; age range 19-80 years)] who underwent appendectomy with preoperative CT examination for suspected acute appendicitis were included, with exclusion of 37 patients with specific CT findings for advanced perforated appendicitis. And they were categorized into nonperforated and early perforated appendicitis groups according to surgical and pathologic reports. The following CT findings were evaluated by two radiologists blinded to pathologic and surgical findings: transverse diameter of the appendix, thickness of the appendiceal wall, the depth of intraluminal appendiceal fluid, appendiceal wall enhancement, presence or absence of focal defect in the appendiceal wall, intraluminal appendiceal air, appendicolith/fecalith, periappendiceal changes, cecal wall thickening, and free fluid. The type of surgical procedures, performance of surgical drainage, and the length of hospital stay were recorded. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to determine the CT findings for differentiating early perforated appendicitis from nonperforated appendicitis, a total of 75 (22%) of the 339 patients was diagnosed with early perforated appendicitis. Focal wall defect [adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 23.40; p < 0.001], circumferential periappendiceal changes (aOR, 5.63; p < 0.001), appendicoliths/fecaliths (aOR, 2.47; p = 0.015), and transverse diameter of the appendix (aOR, 1.22; p = 0.003) were independently differentiating variables for early perforated appendicitis. The transverse diameter of the appendix (≥11 mm) had the highest sensitivity (62.7%) and focal wall defect in the appendiceal wall showed the highest specificity (98.8%). The prevalence of surgical drainage was higher (p = 0.001) and the mean hospital stay was approximately one day longer (p < 0.001) in the early perforated group than nonperforated group. CT can be helpful in differentiating early perforated appendicitis from nonperforated appendicitis, although the sensitivity of the evaluated findings was somewhat limited.
    背景与目标: : 确定CT表现并评估其在区分早期穿孔性阑尾炎和非穿孔性阑尾炎方面的诊断性能,并比较两种类型阑尾炎的治疗方法和临床结果。我们的回顾性研究获得了我们的机构审查委员会的批准,并且放弃了知情同意。从2012年7月到2013年7月,339名患者 [平均年龄40.8岁; 年龄范围19-80岁; 183名男性 (平均年龄40.5岁; 年龄范围19-79岁) 和156名女性 (平均年龄41.2岁; 年龄范围19-80岁)] 包括因疑似急性阑尾炎接受阑尾切除术并进行术前ct检查的患者,其中排除了37例具有特定CT表现的晚期穿孔阑尾炎患者。根据手术和病理报告,将其分为未穿孔和早期穿孔阑尾炎组。由两名对病理和手术结果视而不见的放射科医生评估了以下CT表现: 阑尾的横向直径,阑尾壁的厚度,腔内阑尾液的深度,阑尾壁的增强,阑尾壁中是否存在局灶性缺损,腔内阑尾空气,阑尾/粪便,阑尾周围改变,盲肠壁增厚,游离液体。记录手术类型,手术引流性能和住院时间。采用单因素和多因素logistic回归分析来确定CT表现,以区分早期穿孔性阑尾炎和非穿孔性阑尾炎,总共339例患者中有75例 (22% 例) 被诊断为早期穿孔性阑尾炎。局灶性壁缺损 [调整比值比 (aOR),23.40; p <0.001],周缘阑尾周围变化 (aOR,5.63; p <0.001),阑尾石料/粪便 (aOR,2.47; p = 0.015) 和阑尾横径 (aOR,1.22; p = 0.003) 是早期穿孔性阑尾炎的独立差异变量。阑尾的横向直径 (≥ 11毫米) 具有最高的敏感性 (62.7%),阑尾壁的局部壁缺损显示出最高的特异性 (98.8%)。与未穿孔组相比,早期穿孔组手术引流的发生率更高 (p = 0.001),平均住院时间长约一天 (p <0.001)。尽管评估结果的敏感性有些有限,但CT有助于区分早期穿孔性阑尾炎和非穿孔性阑尾炎。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: OBJECTIVE:Imaging of the vast array of pathologic processes occurring in the small bowel has been facilitated by recent advances, including the use of MDCT scanners that acquire isotropic data and neutral oral contrast agents that improve small-bowel distention. CONCLUSION:This review shows how a systematic pattern approach can be used to narrow the differential diagnosis when an abnormal small-bowel loop is detected on MDCT.
