Objective To investigate image quality and clinical value of dual-source dual energy virtual non-contrast (VNC) CT of the head. MethodsSixty-two patients suspected of cerebrovascular diseases underwent conventional non-contrast (CNC) CT and dual energy CTA examination of the head with dual-source CT. Virtual non-contrast images were reconstructed using dual energy software. The CT values of gray matter, white matter, cerebrospinal fluid, hyperdense hemorrhagic lesion and hypodense ischemic lesion were compared between CNC and VNC images. A four-score scale was used to assess image quality subjectively. Image noise, radiation dosage and detection rate were compared between CNC and VNC images. Paired t test, Wilcoxon signed ranks test and Chi-square test (McNemar test and Kappa test) were used. Results The CT value on CNC and VNC images, were (43. 3 ± 1.5) and (33. 2 ± 1.3) HU for gray matter (t = 46.98, P < 0. 01), (32. 9 ± 1.3) and (28.8 ± 1.6) HU for white matter(t = 16. 28, P <0.01), (9.0 ± 1.4) and (5.3 ± 1.9) HU for cerebrospinal fluid (t=12.41, P<0.01),(62.8 ±10.0) and (51.3 ± 11.5) HU for hyperdense lesion (Z = -4.37, P < 0.01), (20.7 ±4.7) and (18.0 ±6. 9) HU for hypodense lesion (t = 3. 84, P < 0. 01), respectively. VNC images[(1.63 ±0.34) HU]had more noise than CNC images[(0.99±0.18) HU](Z= -6.41, P<0.01). VNC [(0. 53 ± 0. 08) mSv]had less effective dose than CNC[(1.37 ± 0. 23) mSy](Z= - 6. 45, P < 0. 01).In subjective assessment, VNC images had more noise (2. 7 ± 0. 5 for VNC and 3.9 ± 0. 3 for CNC,Z = -6. 84, P < 0. 01) and skull base-related artifacts (2. 4 ± 0. 9 for VNC and 3.7 ± 0. 5 for CNC,Z = -6. 15, P <0. 01) than CNC images. The gray/white matter contrast (1.3 ± 0. 5 for VNC and 3.3 ±0. 6 for CNC, Z = - 7. 01, P < 0. 01), hyperdense lesion display (3.0 ± 0. 4 for VNC and 4. 0 ± 0. 0 for CNC,Z = -4. 52, P < 0. 01) and hypodense lesion display (3.2 ± 0. 8 for VNC and 3.9 ± 0. 3 for CNC,Z= -3. 12, P <0. 01) on VNC images were lower than those on CNC images. In per-patient analysis,29 cases of hyperdense lesion (hemorrhage) were found on VNC images without misdiagnosis. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were all 100. 0% (29/29,33/33, 29/29, 33/33). VNC images had the same detection rate of hyperdense lesions as CNC images (P >0. 05, Kappa = 1. 000) at per-patient level. Twenty-two patients with hypodense ischemic lesions were found on VNC images with one false positive case and two false negative cases. The sensitivity,specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 91.3% (21/23), 97.4%(38/39), 95.5% (21/22) and 95.0% (38/40) respectively. No statistical difference was found in detecting hypodense lesions between VNC and CNC images (χ2 = 0. 00, P > 0. 05, Kappa = 0. 895). In per-lesion analysis, 53 hemorrhage lesions were found on VNC images with false negative results of four lesions and no false positive result. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 93.0% (53/57), 100. 0% (38/38), 100. 0% (53/53) and 90. 5% (38/42)respectively. There was no significant difference in detection rate of hyperdense lesion between VNC and CNC images (χ2 =2. 25, P >0. 05, Kappa =0. 914). Thirty-eight hypodense lesions were found on VNC images with 2 false positive lesions and 13 false negative lesions. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 73.5% (36/49), 96.4% (53/55), 94. 7% (36/38)and 80. 3% (53/66) respectively. The detection rate of hypodense lesion on VNC images was lower than that on CNC images (χ2 = 6. 67 ,P < 0.01, Kappa = 0. 707). Conclusion Compared with CNC images,head VNC images have reduced image quality and radiation dosage. VNC images can replace CNC images potentially in detecting intracranial hemorrhage and provide information for ischemic cerebrovascular diseases to some extent.

Objective:To compare the expression level of exosomal miR-503 in peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE) from patients of different peritoneal transport characteristics, predict the target genes of miR-503 and provide bioinformatic data for researches of peritoneal transport characteristics.Methods:Twenty-four stable peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients were selected and divided into high transport group (H group, n=12) and low transport group (L group, n=12) according to the results of peritoneal equilibration tests (PET). The 500 ml PDE that was left on the patient's abdomen overnight was collected and concentrated using ultrafiltration cell. Exosomes in PDE were resuspended in phosphate buffered saline (PBS) after ultracentrifugation and the characteristics of PDE exosomes were identified by transmission electron microscope (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), Western blotting and fluorescent staining. MicroRNAs were extracted from PDE exosomes. The expression levels of PDE exosomal miR-503 in the two groups were detected by quantitative real-time PCR. Then the relations between the relative quantity of PDE exosomal miR-503 and PET values or 24 h ultrafiltration volume (UF) were analyzed. Targetscan and miRDB databases were used to predict the target genes of miR-503. Gene ontology (GO) functional enrichment and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) signaling pathway analysis were relied on DAVID (https://david.ncifcrf.gov/). Results:The exosomes in PDE showed a round and cup-shaped morphology under TEM, and the diameters were approximately 100 nm measured by NTA. The specific biomarkers of exosomes, CD63, CD81 and heat shock protein -70 (HSP-70) were all detected by Western blotting. The internalization and uptake of the exosomes was observed after fluorescent staining. The relative expression level of PDE exosomal miR-503 in H group was found to be significantly higher than that in L group ( P=0.002), and the relative quantity of PDE exosomal miR-503 was significantly positively correlated with PET values ( r=0.547, P=0.006), but not 24 h UF ( r=-0.297, P=0.159). There were 156 target genes of miR-503 in total that could be predicted by two different databases at the same time. GO analysis of these 156 target genes was mainly focused on kinase binding, regulation of protein modification and catabolic process as well as regulation of epithelial cell proliferation. KEGG enriched many tumor associated or classical signaling pathways, including transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling pathway and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathway. The prediction showed that vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) was a direct target gene of miR-503 and it was also related to many proteins involved in fibrosis mechanism. Conclusions:The expression level of PDE exosomal miR-503 is significantly higher in H group, and positively correlates with PET values, which may regulate the angiogenesis of peritoneal vessels by targeting VEGFA.
