Résumé L’échographie est une méthode permettant l’analyse et le dépistage des dysplasies de hanches (DDH). Le propos de cette étude est d’analyser la couverture de la tête fémorale, de déterminer si cette couverture permet de définir différentes catégories de maturité des hanches selon l’angle a de Graf. 1037 enfants (2034 hanches) ont été examinés par échographie dans un programme de dépistage de la luxation de hanche (DDH). Nous avons trouvé que la couverture de la tête fémorale était corrélée avec l’angle a de Graf. Nous avons pu déterminer des valeurs repères hautes et basses de couverture de la tête (51% et 39%), de telle sorte que les hanches qui sont soit dans ses valeurs soit en dehors de ces valeurs, ont un développement mature ou pathologique. La spécificité de ce dépistage est de 100% et la sensitivité de 82,6%. Pour les hanches pathologiques la spécificité est de 100% et la sensitivité de 79,2%.相似文献
Aim
We aimed to assess whether there is a significant relation between periodontal health status and inflammation in uremic patients undergoing continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) and also to reveal the efficiency of periodontal treatment in patients with various degrees of periodontal problems.Patients and methods
Overall, 68 patients undergoing CAPD were included in the study. Clinical indices and measurements were obtained at baseline and panoramic radiographies were used for the diagnosis. According to the baseline values, patients were stratified into four groups according to the severity of periodontal problems as follows: healthy/gingivitis, slight-to-moderate, and severe periodontitis. A control examination was performed 3 months after the periodontal treatment for only 43 patients. Clinical and laboratory parameters before and after treatment were compared.Results
The frequency of periodontal disease was found to be high in uremic patients on CAPD. The frequency and severity of periodontitis was also found to be significantly (p < 0.01) higher in patients with high sensitive C-reactive protein levels and longer duration of peritoneal dialysis (p < 0.01). In addition, the periodontitis rate was found to be higher in patients with cardiovascular disease (p < 0.05) and diabetes mellitus (p < 0.01).Conclusion
A meticulous periodontal examination should be a routine part of management of the uremic patients on CAPD because periodontal disease could be one of the hidden sources of unexplained inflammatory status. 相似文献Methods: This cohort retrospectively included 144 HSP (59 females, 85 males) patients without Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) symptoms and followed for at least 6 months. We utilized the MEFV gene sequencing by using next-generation sequencing platform (MiSeq System, Illumina).
Results: At least one MEFV variant was detected in 73 (50.7%) of 144 HSP patients and 5 (3.5%) patients were homozygote for M694V mutation. Although severe gastrointestinal involvement and nephritis rates were similar, we found that serum IgA, leukocyte, and platelet count at diagnosis were higher and hemoglobin was lower in HSP patients with MEFV gene variants in exon 10 than those without. Additionally, HSP patients with MEFV variants in exon 10 more often present with abdominal pain and intussusception.
Conclusion: MEFV variants in exon 10 may affect clinical presentation of HSP in populations where FMF is common. While HSP may be an initial symptom of FMF, we speculate that physicians should be aware of FMF possibility in children with intussusception and lower hemoglobin, higher serum IgA, leukocyte, and platelet count. 相似文献
