Objective:To access the clinical value and related risk factors of aortic arch calcification (AoAC) in patients with renal secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) on CT during parathyroid SPECT/CT imaging.Methods:From January 2014 to May 2021, 136 renal SHPT patients (70 males, 66 females, age (50.1±11.4) years) who underwent parathyroid 99Tc m-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) SPECT/CT in Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Nantong University were retrospectively enrolled. AoAC score was estimated with CT(1-5), and patients were divided into none-light AoAC group (AoAC score<3) and moderate-severe AoAC group (AoAC score≥3). Independent-sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare differences of various indicators between two groups. Univariate binary logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of AoAC. Results:Of 136 renal SHPT patients, 111(81.62%) were AoAC detected by CT. There were 84 patients in none-light AoAC group and 52 patients in moderate-severe AoAC group. The age ((46.7±9.8) vs (55.7±11.6) years; t=-4.84, P<0.001), pulse pressure (52(41, 64) vs 60(51, 70) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa); z=-3.27, P=0.001), serum corrected calcium (2.41(2.28, 2.53) vs (2.49±0.22) mmol/L; z=-2.50, P=0.013), serum phosphorus ((1.95±0.39) vs (2.14±0.48) mmol/L; t=-2.54, P=0.012), calcium phosphorus product ((4.68±1.07) vs (5.29±1.10) mmol 2/L 2;t=-3.21, P=0.013) and parathyroid hormone (PTH) level (106.30(90.15, 127.45) vs 109.90(87.93, 157.63) pmol/L; z=-2.09, P=0.036) between non-light AoAC group and moderate-severe AoAC group were significantly different. Logistic regression analysis showed that serum phosphorus (odds ratio ( OR)=7.261, 95% CI: 2.416-21.819, P<0.001), calcium and phosphorus product ( OR=1.598, 95% CI: 1.073-2.380, P=0.021) and PTH level ( OR=1.018, 95% CI: 1.007-1.029, P=0.001) were independent risk factors of AoAC. Conclusions:Hybrid SPECT/CT can be used for an effective method of evaluating AoAC in patients with renal SHPT. High serum phosphorus, high calcium phosphorus product and high PTH level may be independent risk factors of AoAC.

ObjectiveTo investigate the measurement invariance and the score distribution characters of the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), and to test its feasibility in comparing depression among adolescents of different sexes and ages. MethodsFrom September 2018 to May 2019, 12 241 adolescents aged 10 to 19 years old across 22 primary and secondary schools in Hangzhou were included based on cluster sampling method, and they were investigated by PHQ-9. The measurement invariance was tested by multi-group confirmatory factor analysis. Poisson regression analysis and Logistic regression analysis were adopted to explore the score distribution of PHQ-9 by sex and age. ResultsThe configural, metric, scalar and strict invariances (χ2=2 492.527, df=79, P<0.01, RMSEA=0.071, SRMR=0.031, CFI=0.942, TLI=0.947, ΔCFI=0.004, ΔTLI=0.002 compared with the scalar model) of PHQ-9 across sex were all acceptable, and the configural, metric and scalar invariances (χ2=3 311.991, df=414, P<0.01, RMSEA=0.076, SRMR=0.055, CFI=0.928, TLI=0.937, ΔCFI=0.010, ΔTLI=0.002 compared with the metric model) across age were acceptable. The detection rate of mild depressive symptoms in girls was higher than that in boys (52.99% vs. 46.65%, χ2=48.344, P<0.01). The PHQ-9 total scores of girls aged 13 to 17 were higher than those of boys (D=0.092~0.144, P<0.01). There was an interaction between sex and age (χ2=32.800, df=1, P<0.01, OR=0.895). Except low self-evaluation and suicide or self-injury, the detection rate of assessed symptom on each item of girls was higher than that of boys (P<0.05). ConclusionIt is discovered that PHQ-9 has measurement equivalence across sex and age in adolescents, and girls and older adolescents scored higher in PHQ-9.
