OCT及OCTA在阿尔茨海默病诊断中的研究进展

阿尔茨海默病是一种进行性且不可逆转的神经系统疾病,由于视网膜和中枢神经系统有相似的胚胎起源和生理特征,眼科检查可提供简单无创的诊断方法。光学相干断层扫描技术(OCT)能够精确地测量视网膜各个组织层面的厚度,以评估视网膜的退行性改变,光学相干断层扫描血管成像(OCTA)可以提供高分辨率三维成像,从而更直观地检测视网膜血管的变化,间接地反映脑神经元和血管的病理特征。就OCT测量视网膜厚度及OCTA测量视网膜血流变化在阿尔茨海默病诊断中的研究进展进行综述。     

Role of optical coherence tomography angiography in the characterization of vascular network patterns of ocular surface squamous neoplasia

PurposeTo visualize and quantify vascular networks in individuals with ocular surface squamous neoplasia (OSSN) through optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA).MethodCross-sectional study of OSSN patients. Vascular networks were measured by OCTA in the epithelium and sub-epithelial space in the tumors, adjacent tissue, and in the contralateral eye. Vessel area density (VAD, percent of blood vessels within 2.14 mm²), was calculated for each location. Total tumor density (TTD, percent of blood vessels within the entire tumor) was calculated. VAD was assessed separately for corneal and conjunctival locations and compared.ResultsFifteen patients with OSSN were included. The mean age was 61 ± 12 years and the majority were male (80%). The mean tumor area, volume, depth, and TTD were 28.0 ± 9.0 mm² (range, 10.9–39.7), 9.1 ± 4.1 mm³ (range, 3.4–18.8), 334 ± 125 μm (range, 177–571), and 33.2% ± 11.0% (range, 18.7–58.8), respectively. The VAD was highest within the tumor (28.9% ± 8.7%) followed by the adjacent sub-epithelial tissue and the tissue underneath the conjunctival component of tumor. These densities were higher than the VAD in the tissues of the non-involved eye (all P < 0.05). The VAD within conjunctival component of tumor was significantly higher than those with corneal component (29.8% ± 9.5% vs. 21.1% ± 5.5%, p = 0.006). The VAD under conjunctival tumor was also significantly higher than under corneal component (24.1% ± 7.8% vs. 17.0% ± 6.1%, p = 0.024).ConclusionsOCTA imaging allowed for visualization and quantification of vessel structure and density within, under, and surrounding OSSN.

目的探讨中、高流量血管搭桥方法对颅内巨大颅内动脉瘤的治疗。方法8例巨大和颅底复杂动脉瘤患者,主要表现头痛发病者5例,视力减退者2例,面部麻木者1例。未破裂动脉瘤6例,2例患者发生动脉瘤破裂,Hunt-Hess分级分别为Ⅰ级和Ⅱ级。血管造影证实：动脉瘤体位于颈内动脉海绵窦段（C4段）4例、床突上段（C1段）2例、大脑中动脉M2～M1段者2例动脉瘤大小为2．5～6．0cm,平均直径3．7cm。其中6例动脉瘤为梭形,2例为宽颈动脉瘤。8例患者均采用额颞开颅,骨瓣要尽可能低到颅底,以缩短搭桥移植血管在颅外走行长度。通常用7-0显微缝线吻合移植血管与颈外动脉,用8-0缝线吻合移植血管与颅内段颈内动脉和大脑中动脉。4例患者利用大隐静脉移植搭桥,4例患者利用桡动脉移植搭桥。颅内、外搭桥完毕后将动脉瘤近心端和远端的供血动脉结扎和夹闭,阻断动脉瘤的全部血供。对3例有压迫脑神经或颅内占位引起颅压高的患者,将动脉瘤切除。结果5例术后头痛消失,1例视力减退者明显改善,1例动眼神经麻痹恢复。5例术后行脑血管造影检查,3例行CT血管造影检查,7例搭桥吻合血管全部畅通,动脉瘤消失。2例术后出现暂时性一侧肢体力弱,肌力在Ⅱ～Ⅲ级之间,术后1个月完全恢复。结论中、高流量颅内外血管搭桥可作为治疗颅内巨大动脉瘤的有效方法。     

Modification of Blood Vessel Diameter Following Perivascular Application of Botulinum Toxin-A

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that perivascularly applied botulinum toxin-A (BTX) increases the diameter of treated blood vessels in a rat femoral vessel exposure model. Six adult Sprague–Dawley rats were used and bilateral femoral artery and vein exposures were performed. Five units of BTX were applied to the experimental side and an equal volume of sterile saline was applied to the control side. Digital images of the vessels were obtained at the following time points: pretreatment, immediately posttreatment, and postoperative days (POD) 1, 14, and 28. Vessel diameters were equivalent at baseline and immediately following application of BTX and saline. The BTX artery was significantly larger than the control artery on POD 1 and 14. The BTX treated artery was significantly larger than all other vessels on POD 14 (p < 0.05) as well as all prior time points (p < 0.01). Direct perivascular application of BTX increases the diameter of rat femoral vessels as early as POD 1. The affect is most robust on POD 14 where the artery was significantly larger than all other vessels at all time points. It is likely that the increased diameter of blood vessels results in an increased blood flow across the area of dilation. Such an increase in flow may serve to improve end-organ perfusion in microvascular procedures.     

肾下型腹主动脉瘤的外科治疗

目的总结26例肾下型腹主动脉瘤的手术治疗经验。方法回顾性分析近5年多来手术治疗26例肾下型腹主动脉瘤的临床资料，全组26例，术前均经影像检查证实诊断。行择期手术21例，破裂型腹主动脉瘤急诊手术5例。26例均行腹主动脉瘤切除，人工血管重建术。结果围手术期死亡2例，均为急症手术患者，总病死率7．7％，急诊手术病死率40．0％。随访时间1-5年。术后1，3，5年生存率分别为96％，88％，75％。死亡原因均与腹主动脉瘤和手术无关。结论CTA检查是诊断腹主动脉瘤的可靠方法。手术治疗仍是治疗腹主动脉瘤的重要方法。瘤体直径不是决定手术的唯一指征。影响手术的危险因素主要是高龄、严重的心肺疾病和肾功能不全。     

Evaluation of portal MR angiography using superparamagnetic iron oxide

The purpose of our research was to determine the effects of superparamagnetic iron oxide on MR imaging of the portal venous system. Eight piglets were examined in deep anaesthesia and respiratory arrest using a time-of-flight magnetic resonance fast low angle shot, two-dimensional angiography sequence at 1.5T. MR angiograms were acquired precontrast and after intravenous administration of a cumulative dose of 10, 20 and 40 μmol/kg SHU 555A, a superparamagnetic iron oxide contrast agent for MR imaging with a particle size of 60 nm. For each dose, two subsequent sets of scans were obtained and reconstructed by a maximum-intensity-projection algorithm. Hepatic parenchymal and portal venous signal intensities were measured, and portal vein contrast calculated for each set of scans. All examinations were visually rated as to portal vein contrast and homogeneity by two blinded observers. Receiver operating characteristics of both observers were analyzed. The contrast agent reduced hepatic parenchymal signal in a dose-dependent way. After a cumulative dose of 10 μmol iron oxide, hepatic parenchymal signal intensity decreased to 63 ± 6% (average of measurements at 4 and 14 minutes, mean ± standard error of the mean), after 20 μmol to 24 ± 3%, and after 40 μmol to 12 ± 1% of control. Intra-vascular signal in the left main portal vein branch increased to 117 ± 6%, 127 ± 10%, and 133 ± 9% of control, respectively. The contrast-to-noise ratio of the portal vein improved (521 ± 90%, 891 ± 178%, and 995 ± 201% of control in the left portal vein main branch). Intravascular signal intensities increased slightly. The combined effect improved contrast of the portal vein stem and its branches. Receiver operating characteristics analysis documented dose-dependency of contrast medium effects on portal venous contrast and intravascular homogeneity. Visual rating also indicated a positive effect on portal venous contrast. The superparamagnetic iron oxide agent improved portal venous contrast with surrounding hepatic parenchyma in this normal animal model, and could potentially result in more accurate diagnosis of portal venous pathology.

带真皮下血管网超薄皮瓣血运重建的实验研究（二）超薄皮瓣血管密度变化的体视学观察

以猪作为动物模型，通过分层抽样，制作各向同性切片，在图像分析仪下对超薄皮瓣的血管密度进行了观察。结果表明：超薄皮瓣血管密度于术后第５天开始出现显著性变化。这种变化首先出现在超薄皮瓣存活部分的远端，之后渐至近端。这种变化在超薄皮瓣血运重建过程中起主要作用。     

End-to-side anastomosis of rat carotid artery: comparison of different types of section and shape of the terminal end

Summary In 50 rats, different types of end-to-side carotid artery anastomoses were compared. In one technique, a longitudinal split in the long axis of the vessel was performed to enhance the diameter of the anastomosis. This theoretical advantage was not confirmed in this series. The clamping time, anastomoses time, and tamponade time were increased significantly when compared with a simple, slightly oblique end-to-side anastomosis. This study highlighted that the most simple type of end-to-side anastomosis gave less bleeding, achieved a quicker water-tight anastomosis and decreased the risk of late problems.
