概括
在COVID-19患者中,皮下脂肪组织高放射密度 (SATR) 与死亡率增加和严重并发症有关. 这一发现突出了SATR作为预测COVID-19严重程度的潜在生物标志物.
科学领域:
- 医学成像医学成像
- 脂肪组织生物学 脂肪组织生物学
- 传染病研究传染病研究.
背景情况:
- 脂肪组织的特征,如放射密度和代谢活性,可能会影响COVID-19患者的结果.
- 以前的研究表明,身体组成和传染病严重程度之间存在联系.
研究的目的:
- 研究脂肪组织辐射密度和代谢活动与住院COVID-19患者的临床结果之间的关联.
- 为了确定脂肪组织特征是否可以作为COVID-19的预后生物标志物.
主要方法:
- 两组COVID-19患者队伍的回顾性分析.
- 计算机断层扫描 (CT) 用于评估皮下脂肪组织放射密度 (SATR) 和内脏脂肪组织放射密度.
- 用于测量脂肪组织代谢活动的FDG-PET/CT.
- 回归分析检查了与死亡率,住院时间,通风需求和并发症的关联.
主要成果:
- 较高的SATR独立地与增加的死亡风险相关 (OR:2.70;P = 0.033).
- 升高的SATR与更长的住院时间相关 (P < 0.001),增加机械通风的需要 (P = 0.007),并发症的发生率更高,包括急性损伤,二次感染,休克和肺栓塞.
- SATR显示了皮下脂肪组织葡萄糖吸收的正相关性 (ρ = 0.52) 和丁水平的负相关性 (ρ = -0.48).
结论:
- 在COVID-19诊断时SATR升高是疾病严重程度和不良结果的重要预测因素.
- SATR成为一种潜在的预后生物标志物,用于包括COVID-19在内的急性和慢性炎症疾病.

Hypodermis
4.2K
The hypodermis (the subcutaneous layer or superficial fascia) is present directly below the dermis. It connects the skin to the underlying fascia (fibrous tissue) of the bones and muscles. It is not strictly a part of the skin, although the border between the hypodermis and dermis can be difficult to distinguish. The hypodermis consists of well-vascularized, loose, areolar connective tissue and adipose tissue, which functions as a mode of fat storage and provides insulation and cushioning for...

Cholesterol: Significance and Regulation
519
Although not a source of energy, cholesterol plays a significant role as a foundational structure for bile salts, steroid hormones, and vitamin D, as well as being a crucial component of plasma membranes. Approximately 15% of blood cholesterol is derived from our diet, with the remainder synthesized from acetyl CoA by the liver and intestines. Cholesterol is eliminated from the body through its conversion into bile salts, which are eventually discarded in the feces.
