2015年,国际临床密度测定学会(ISCD)关于外周定量计算机断层扫描(pQCT)的立场声明不建议常规使用pQCT。在临床环境中,直到达到图像采集和分析协议的一致性,进行的规范性研究,和确定的治疗阈值。迄今为止,缺乏关于pQCT实施的共识性建议仍然是pQCT技术实施的障碍.因此,根据现有证据的描述和文献综述,这篇综述为临床护理和研究目的推荐了最合适的pQCT采集和分析方案,并建议诊断骨质疏松症的具体措施,分配断裂风险,监测骨质疏松症的治疗效果,在神经功能缺损患者中。MEDLINE的系统文献检索,EMBASE©,CINAHL,和PubMed从开始到8月8日进行了评估骨骼健康的pQCT研究,2017.搜索仅限于患有神经功能缺损(脊髓损伤,中风,和多发性硬化症),因为这些组骨质量的区域下降迅速而严重。在923份参考文献中,我们确定了69例符合审查纳入标准.大多数研究(n=60)使用了StrategcXCT2000/3000pQCT扫描仪,这反映在我们对采集和分析协议的评估中。与ISCD官方职位的总体一致性很差。只有11%(n=6)的研究符合图像采集的质量报告标准,32%(n=19)的研究以适合复制的格式报告了其数据分析。因此,根据目前的文献综述,ISCD立场陈述标准和作者的专业知识,我们提出了半径的采集和分析协议,胫骨,和股骨部位使用StrategcXCT2000/3000pQCT扫描仪对患有临床和研究目的的神经功能缺损患者进行扫描,以推动实践改变,开发规范数据集并完成未来的荟萃分析,以告知骨折风险和治疗效果评估。
In 2015, the International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) position statement regarding peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) did not recommend routine use of pQCT, in clinical settings until consistency in image acquisition and analysis protocols are reached, normative studies conducted, and treatment thresholds identified. To date, the lack of consensus-derived recommendations regarding pQCT implementation remains a barrier to implementation of pQCT technology. Thus, based on description of available evidence and literature synthesis, this
review recommends the most appropriate pQCT acquisition and analysis protocols for clinical care and research purposes, and recommends specific measures for diagnosis of osteoporosis, assigning fracture risk, and monitoring osteoporosis treatment effectiveness, among patients with neurological impairment. A systematic literature search of MEDLINE, EMBASE©, CINAHL, and PubMed for available pQCT studies assessing bone health was carried out from inception to August 8th, 2017. The search was limited to individuals with neurological impairment (spinal cord injury, stroke, and multiple sclerosis) as these groups have rapid and severe regional declines in bone mass. Of 923 references, we identified 69 that met
review inclusion criteria. The majority of studies (n = 60) used the Stratec XCT 2000/3000 pQCT scanners as reflected in our evaluation of acquisition and analysis protocols. Overall congruence with the ISCD Official Positions was poor. Only 11% (n = 6) studies met quality reporting criteria for image acquisition and 32% (n = 19) reported their data analysis in a format suitable for reproduction. Therefore, based on current literature synthesis, ISCD position statement standards and the authors\' expertise, we propose acquisition and analysis protocols at the radius, tibia, and femur sites using Stratec XCT 2000/3000 pQCT scanners among patients with neurological impairment for clinical and research purposes in order to drive practice change, develop normative datasets and complete future meta-analysis to inform fracture risk and treatment efficacy evaluation.
