| 1 | Combined value of apparent diffusion coefficient-standardized uptake value max in evaluation of post-treated locally advanced rectal cancer显示文摘AIM:To assess the clinical diagnostic value of functional imaging,combining quantitative parameters of apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC) and standardized uptake value(SUV)max,before and after chemo-radiation therapy,in prediction of tumor response of patients with rectal cancer,related to tumor regression grade at histology.METHODS:A total of 31 patients with biopsy proven diagnosis of rectal carcinoma were enrolled in our study.All patients underwent a whole body ^(18)FDG positron emission tomography(PET)/computed tomography(CT) scan and a pelvic magnetic resonance(MR)examination including diffusion weighted(DW) imaging for staging(PET1,RM1) and after completion(6.6 wk)of neoadjuvant treatment(PET2,RM2).Subsequently all patients underwent total mesorectal excision and the histological results were compared with imaging findings.The MR scanning,performed on 1.5 T magnet(Philips,Achieva),included T2-weighted multiplanar imaging and in addition DW images with b-value of 0 and 1000 mm^2/s.On PET/CT the SUVmax of the rectal lesion were calculated in PET1 and PET2.The percentage decrease of SUVmax(△SUV) and ADC(△ADC) values from baseline to presurgical scan were assessed and correlated with pathologic response classified as tumor regression grade(Mandard's criteria;TRG1 = complete regression,TRG5 = no regression).RESULTS:After completion of therapy,all the patients were submitted to surgery.According to the Mandard's criteria,22 tumors showed complete(TRG1) or subtotal regression(TRG2) and were classified as responders;9tumors were classified as non responders(TRG3,4 and5).Considering all patients the mean values of SUVmax in PET 1 was higher than the mean value of SUVmax in PET 2(P < 0.001),whereas the mean ADC values was lower in RM1 than RM2(P < 0.001),with a △SUV and △ADC respectively of 60.2%and 66.8%.The best predictors for TRG response were SUV2(threshold of4.4) and ADC2(1.29 × 10^(-3) mm^2/s) with high sensitivity and specificity.Combining in a single analysis both the obtained median value,the positive predictive value,in predicting the different group category response in related to TRG system,presented R^2 of 0.95.CONCLUSION:The functional imaging combining ADC and SUVmax in a single analysis permits to detect changes in cellular tissue structures useful for the assessment of tumour response after the neoadjuvant therapy in rectal cancer,increasing the sensitivity in correct depiction of treatment response than either method alone. | Davide Ippolito Davide Fior Chiara Trattenero Elena De Ponti Silvia Drago Luca Guerra Cammillo Talei Franzesi Sandro Sironi | 2015 | World Journal of Radiology2015,7,12: | 5 |

| 6 | Viral infections in orthopedics: A systematic review and classification proposal显示文摘BACKGROUND Although the impact of microbial infections on orthopedic clinical outcomes is well recognized,the influence of viral infections on the musculoskeletal system might have been underestimated.AIM To systematically review the available evidence on risk factors and musculoskeletal manifestations following viral infections and to propose a pertinent classification scheme.METHODS We searched MEDLINE,Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials(CENTRAL),the Reference Citation Analysis(RCA),and Scopus for completed studies published before January 30,2021,to evaluate risk factors and bone and joint manifestations of viral infection in animal models and patient registries.Quality assessment was performed using SYRCLE's risk of bias tool for animal studies,Moga score for case series,Wylde score for registry studies,and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for case-control studies.RESULTS Six human and four animal studies were eligible for inclusion in the qualitative synthesis.Hepatitis C virus was implicated in several peri-and post-operative complications in patients without cirrhosis after major orthopedic surgery.Herpes virus may affect the integrity of lumbar discs,whereas Ross River and Chikungunya viruses provoke viral arthritis and bone loss.CONCLUSION Evidence of moderate strength suggested that viruses can cause moderate to severe arthritis and osteitis.Risk factors such as pre-existing rheumatologic disease contributed to higher disease severity and duration of symptoms.Therefore,based on our literature search,the proposed clinical and pathogenetic classification scheme is as follows:(1)Viral infections of bone or joint;(2)Active bone and joint inflammatory diseases secondary to viral infections in other organs or tissues;and(3)Viral infection as a risk factor for post-surgical bacterial infection. | Konstantinos Sidiropoulos Savvas Ilias Christofilos Konstantinos Tsikopoulos Dimitrios Kitridis Lorenzo Drago Gabriele Meroni Carlo Luca Romanò Venu Kavarthapu | 2022 | World Journal of Orthopedics2022,13,11: | 0 |
