目的 探讨绝经后妇女骨髓脂肪含量与内脏脂肪(VAT)、皮下脂肪组织(SAT)及其比值的相关性。方法绝经后健康女性受试者37例(年龄50~68岁)行L3椎体单体素磁共振波谱扫描获得椎体骨髓脂肪分数(FF),腹部(以L4为水平)横断位T1WI成像以定量VAT及SAT,并计算VAT/SAT。评价MRI两次重复扫描可重复性及不同观察者测量值的一致性,多元回归分析FF值的独立相关因素。结果 L3椎体FF值测量可重复性变异系数(CV)为2.86%,而SAT及VAT CV分别为1.45%、2.29%。不同观察者间测量SAT及VAT组内相关系数分别为0.962、0.935(P均〈0.001)。FF值与VAT(r=0.598)、SAT(r=-309)、VAT/SAT比值(r=492)、年龄(r=0.327)、绝经年数(r=0.401)、BMI(r=-0.332)存在一定相关性(P均〈0.05)。多元线性回归分析显示VAT(Sβ=0.417,P〈0.001)及VAT/SAT(Sβ=0.398,P=0.009)是FF值的独立负性相关因素。结论 绝经后女性骨髓脂肪含量与内脏脂肪组织有关。
Objective To explore the relationships of marrow fat content with visceral adipose tissue (VAT), subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) and VAT/SAT in postmenopausal women. Methods Healthy postmenopausal women ( n = 37, 50 - 68 years) underwent single voxel MR spectroscopy for quantifying marrow fat fraction (FF) and T1WI at the L4 vertebral level to ob- tain VAT, SAT and their ratio. Ten participants were scanned twice to assess the reproducibility of FF measurements. The relia- bility of FF measurements was evaluated with the intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC). Results The mean coefficients of variation of FF, SAT and VAT were 2.86% , 1.45% and 2.29% , respectively. According to the ICC, the measurements were reliable ( ICC =0. 962 for SAT and ICC = 0. 935 for VAT, all P 〈 0. 001 ). FF was significantly correlated with VAT ( r = 0. 598), SAT( r =-309), VAT/SAT ratio ( r =492), age ( r =0. 327), years since menopause ( r =0.401 ) and BMI ( r = - 0.332) ( all P 〈 0. 05 ). Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that VAT and VAT/SAT ratio were independent correla- tion factors of FF( S/3 =0. 417, P 〈0. 001 andSfl =0. 398, P =0. 009). Conclusion Marrow fat content was related to viscer- al adipose tissue in postmenopausal women.
