| 1 | Osteopontin: A non-invasive parameter of portal hypertension and prognostic marker of cirrhosis显示文摘AIM: To investigate the relationship between osteopontin plasma concentrations and the severity of portal hypertension and to assess osteopontin prognostic value.METHODS: A cohort of 154 patients with confirmed liver cirrhosis(112 ethylic, 108 men, age 34-72 years)were enrolled in the study. Hepatic venous pressure gradient(HVPG) measurement and laboratory and ultrasound examinations were carried out for all patients. HVPG was measured using a standard catheterization method with the balloon wedge technique. Osteopontin was measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) method in plasma. Patients were followed up with a specific focus on mortality. The control group consisted of 137 healthy age- and sex- matched individuals.RESULTS: The mean value of HVPG was 16.18 ± 5.6 mm Hg. Compared to controls, the plasma levels of osteopontin in cirrhotic patients were significantly higher(P < 0.001). The plasma levels of osteopontin were positively related to HVPG(P = 0.0022, r = 0.25) and differed among the individual Child-Pugh groups of patients. The cut-off value of 80 ng/m L osteopontin distinguished patients with significant portal hypertension(HVPG above 10 mm Hg) at 75% sensitivity and 63% specificity. The mean follow-up of patients was 3.7 ± 2.6 years. The probability of cumulative survival was 39% for patients with HVPG > 10 mm Hg and 65% for those with HVPG ≤ 10 mm Hg(P = 0.0086, odds ratio(OR), 2.92, 95% confidence interval(CI): 1.09-7.76). Osteopontin showed a similar prognostic value to HVPG. Patients with osteopontin values above 80 ng/m L had significantly lower cumulative survival compared to those with osteopontin ≤ 80 ng/m L(37% vs 56%, P = 0.00035; OR = 2.23, 95%CI: 1.06-4.68).CONCLUSION: Osteopontin is a non-invasive parameter of portal hypertension that distinguishes patients with clinically significant portal hypertension. It is a strong prognostic factor for survival. | Radan Bruha Marie Jachymova Jaromir Petrtyl Karel Dvorak Martin Lenicek Petr Urbanek Tomislav Svestka Libor Vitek | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016,22,12: | 20 |
| 2 | Ultrasound-assessed non-culprit and culprit coronary vessels differ by age and gender显示文摘AIM: To investigate age-and gender-related differences in non-culprit versus culprit coronary vessels assessed with virtual histology intravascular ultrasound (VH-IVUS). METHODS: In 390 patients referred for coronary angiography to a single center (Luzerner Kantonsspital, Switzerland) between May 2007 and January 2011, 691 proximal vessel segments in left anterior descending, circumflex and/or right coronary arteries were imaged by VH-IVUS. Plaque burden and plaque composition(fibrous, fibro-fatty, necrotic core and dense calcium volumes) were analyzed in 3 age tertiles, according to gender and separated for vessels containing non-culprit or culprit lesions. To classify as vessel containing a culprit lesion, the patient had to present with an acute coronary syndrome, and the VH-IVUS had to be performed in a vessel segment containing the culprit lesion according to conventional coronary angiography. RESULTS: In non-culprit vessels the plaque burden increased significantly with aging (in men from 37% ± 12% in the lowest to 46% ± 10% in the highest age tertile, P < 0.001; in women from 30% ± 9% to 40% ± 11%, P < 0.001); men had higher plaque burden than women at any age (P < 0.001 for each of the 3 age tertiles). In culprit vessels of the lowest age tertile, plaque burden was significantly higher than that in non- culprit vessels (in men 48% ± 6%, P < 0.001 as compared to non-culprit vessels; in women 44% ± 18%, P = 0.004 as compared to non-culprit vessels). Plaque burden of culprit vessels did not significantly change during aging (plaque burden in men of the highest age tertile 51% ± 9%, P = 0.523 as compared to lowest age tertile; in women of the highest age tertile 49% ± 8%, P = 0.449 as compared to lowest age tertile). In men, plaque morphology of culprit vessels became increasingly rupture-prone during aging (increasing percentages of necrotic core and dense calcium), whereas plaque morphology in non-culprit vessels was less rupture-prone and remained constant during aging. In women, necrotic core in non-culprit vessels was very low at young age, but increased during aging resulting in a plaque morphology that was very similar to men. Plaque morphology in culprit vessels of young women and men was similar. CONCLUSION: This study provides evidence that age-and gender-related differences in plaque burden and plaque composition significantly depend on whether the vessel contained a non-culprit or culprit lesion. | Andreas W Schoenenberger Nadja Urbanek Stefan Toggweiler Andreas E Stuck Thérèse J Resink Paul Erne | 2013 | World Journal of Cardiology2013,5,3: | 7 |
