Shear Wave Elastography Characteristics of the Gastrocnemius Muscle in Postural Instability Gait Disorder Vs Tremor Dominant Parkinson’s Disease Patients
Acta Neurologica Belgica(2024)
摘要
This study explored the characteristics of muscle stiffness of lower gastrocnemius in resting and exercise states in patients with postural instability gait difficulty (PIGD) and tremor dominant (TD) Parkinson’s disease patients using shear wave elastography (SWE). 75 PD patients from the Department of Parkinson’s Disease Center in the Hospital from September 2021 to December 2022 were prospectively included, including 44 patients with PIGD and 31 with TD. In the same period, 40 healthy subjects matching gender and age were included as the control group. SWE was used to detect Young’s modulus of both sides (right and left, R- and L-) of the lateral head of the gastrocnemius in resting (YM1) and exerciser states (YM2) in all participants and the absolute difference Young’s modulus between resting and exercise state (ΔYM) was calculated. R-YM2 and R-ΔYM were the highest in the normal controls, followed by the TD group, and lowest in the PIGD group. There were no differences in L-YM2 and L-ΔYM between the PIGD group and the TD group (all p > 0.05), but they were lower than those in the normal control group (all p < 0.05). In addition, R-YM2 and R-ΔYM were negatively correlated with disease duration and UPDRS III scores in the PIGD group (all p < 0.05). R-ΔYM has the highest value in the differential diagnosis of PIGD and TD patients. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) curve is 0.812 (95
