Performance of First-Trimester Fetal Echocardiography in Diagnosing Fetal Heart Defects: Meta-analysis and Systematic Review.
JOURNAL OF ULTRASOUND IN MEDICINE(2020)
摘要
Objectives Early fetal echocardiography is becoming increasing common during the nuchal translucency scan period. The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the accuracy of first-trimester fetal echocardiography in diagnosing congenital heart defects (CHDs). Methods The databases of PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, and the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature were systematically searched for the candidate articles, and the references of included studies were also examined. We recorded the characteristics of the included studies and assessed the quality of each study by the Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies tool. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio (PLR), negative likelihood ratio (NLR), diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), and area under the curve (AUC) were calculated with Meta-Disc version 1.4 software (Ramon y Cajal Hospital, Madrid, Spain). We also evaluated the publication bias by using Stata version 12.0 software (StataCorp, College Station, TX). Results This meta-analysis included 18 studies with 26,201 fetal hearts. The overall pooled sensitivity, specificity, PLR, and NLR were 0.750, 0.999, 392.95, and 0.277, respectively. The DOR and AUC were 1736.0 and 0.9331. The pooled sensitivity, specificity, PLR, NLR, DOR, and AUC for major CHDs were 0.838, 1.000, 725.69, 0.203, 5084.8, and 0.9617. Conclusions First-trimester fetal echocardiography had high value in diagnosing CHDs, especially major CHDs.
