摘要:
目的 探索中重度克罗恩病(CD)的CT小肠造影特征,构建预测中重度期CD的列线图。 方法 收集2019年1月~2022年6月期间扬州大学附属医院收治的180例CD患者,随机分为训练组(n=120)和验证组(n=60)。依据克罗恩病简化内镜评分评估CD的活动性,分为缓解、轻度期(n=94)、中重度期(n=86)。比较分析训练组和验证组不同分期CT小肠造影征象差异,并使用Rstudio4.1.2软件R包构建模型,绘制ROC曲线、校准曲线及临床决策曲线。 结果 二项Logistic回归分析CT小肠造影征象显示:肠壁厚度(OR=1.746,95% CI:1.085~2.811)、ΔV-P(ΔV-P =静脉期肠壁CT值-平扫肠壁CT值)(OR=1.148,95% CI:1.062~ 1.241)、肠壁分层强化(OR=14.183,95% CI:3.737~53.824)、肠系膜脂肪密度高(OR=5.332,95% CI:1.278~22.246)4个参数是诊断中重度度CD独立参数。模型在训练组和验证组ROC曲线下面积分别为0.952(95% CI:0.925~0.979,P < 0.05)、0.955(95% CI:0.911~0.997,P < 0.05),模型校准曲线与理想曲线贴合良好,决策曲线显示在一定阈值范围内患者净收益较大。 结论 肠壁厚度、ΔV-P、肠壁分层强化及肠系膜脂肪密度增高是诊断中重度期CD的独立因素,以此构建的列线图能够预测中重度期CD活动性。 -

Abstract:Objective To explore the CT enterography characteristics of moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD) and structure a nomogram to predict moderate to severe CD. Methods A total of 180 patients with CD admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University from January 2019 to June 2022 were randomly divided into modeling group (n=120) and validation group (n=60). The activity of CD was assessed on the basis of the Simplified Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease and subsequently divided into two groups: remission to mild (n=94) and moderate to severe (n=86). The CT enterography signs of the diseased intestinal segment of the two groups were compared and analyzed. The model was constructed using R package of Rstudio4.1.2 software. ROC curve, calibration curve and clinical decision-making curve were drawn. Results Binomial Logistic regression analysis showed mural thickness (OR=1.746, 95% CI: 1.085-2.811), ΔV-P (difference in CT value of intestinal wall in venous phase and plain scan) (OR=1.148, 95% CI: 1.062-1.241), mural stratification and hyperenhancement (OR=14.183, 95%CI: 3.737-53.824) and increased mesenteric fat density (OR=5.332, 95% CI: 1.278-22.246) were independent parameters for the diagnosis of moderate to severe CD. The areas under the ROC curve of the model in the modeling group and the validation group was 0.952 (95% CI: 0.925-0.979, P < 0.05) and 0.955 (95% CI: 0.911-0.997, P < 0.05). The calibration curve of the model fitted well with the ideal curve, and the clinical decision-making curve has indicated large net benefit within a certain threshold range. Conclusion Mural thickness, ΔV-P, Mural stratification and hyperenhancement and Increased mesenteric fat density are independent parameters for determining moderate to severe stage of the disease and the correspondingly constructed nomogram can predict disease activity in moderate-to-severe CD. -
