    Abstract

    Objective:To investigate the application value of Doppler uterine artery imaging and pelvic ultrasound combined with morning urine gonadotropin in the preliminary diagnosis of central precocious puberty(CPP)in girls. Methods:A total of 96 precocious girls admitted to the Department of Pediatrics,Huai’an Clinical College,Xuzhou Medical University from April 2022 to May 2023 were recruited as the study objects. General data were collected,serum basic luteinizing hormone(LH),follicle stimulating hormone(FSH),and estradiol levels were examined,morning urine LH and FSH were determined,and bone age was detected. At the same time,pelvic Doppler ultrasonography was performed to evaluate the uterine artery pulse index(PI),long diameter,transverse diameter and anteroposterior diameter of uterine,uterine volume,and ovarian volume. The girls were divided into the non-CPP group and the CPP group according to the results of GnRH stimulation test. Statistical software was used to analyze and integrate relevant data. Results:①The level of the uterine artery PI in the CPP group was significantly lower than that in the non -CPP group,while uterine long diameter as well as the level of morning urine LH in the CPP group were significantly higher than those in the non-CPP group(P < 0.05). ②Correlation analysis showed that uterine artery PI was negatively correlated with morning urine LH,morning urine FSH,long diameter,transverse diameter,anteroposterior diameter of uterine,uterine volume,ovarian volume,and serum LH peak value (P < 0.05),but had no significant correlation with serum FSH peak value(P > 0.05). Uterine long diameter was positively correlated with morning urine LH,morning urine FSH,uterine transverse diameter,anteroposterior diameter,uterine volume,ovarian volume,and serum LH peak value(P < 0.05),but had no significant correlation with serum FSH peak value(P > 0.05). Morning urine LH level was positively correlated with morning urine FSH,uterine long diameter,transverse diameter,anteroposterior diameter,uterine volume, ovarian volume,serum LH peak and FSH peak(P < 0.05). ③The area under curve(AUC),sensitivity and specificity of ROC curve when uterine artery PI,uterine long diameter,and morning urine LH were used for diagnosing CPP in girls were 0.915,76%,90%; 0.945,95% ,88% ;0.925,91% ,84% ,respectively. When uterine artery PI,uterine long diameter,and morning urine LH were combined in the diagnosis of CPP in girls,the AUC,sensitivity and specificity were 0.974,98% and 90%,respectively,which was better than used alone. Conclusion:The combined determination of uterine artery PI,uterine long diameter and morning urine LH display the highest efficacy in the diagnosis of CPP in girls,and has the advantages of safety,non -invasive and convenient,which is suitable for clinical application.

  • 女童性早熟是指7.5岁前出现第二性征的发育[1]。根据下丘脑⁃垂体⁃性腺轴(hypothalamic⁃pituitary⁃ gonadal axis,HPGA)功能是否提前启动,可分为中枢性性早熟(central precocious puberty,CPP)、外周性性早熟和不完全性性早熟[2]。性早熟患儿体内性激素含量异常增高,第二性征过早呈现,骨骼生长发育异常加快而引起骨骺过早闭合,从而影响患儿成年终身高,成为危害儿童身心健康的最常见内分泌疾病之一。国内外研究显示,由于社会经济发展、生活水平的提高,各地性早熟的发病率呈上升趋势[3-4],女孩性早熟发病率较男童上升更为显著[5]。促性腺激素释放激素(gonadotropin⁃releasing hormone, GnRH)激发试验是诊断CPP的“金标准”[2],但需短时间内多次采血,增加患儿痛苦,且收费较高,故患儿及家长依从性差。因此寻找可替代的诊断方法成为性早熟研究的热点。盆腔彩超检查具有无创、方便、耗时短、可重复性强等优点,已成为诊断CPP 的重要方法[6]。多项研究显示子宫动脉搏动指数 (pulsation index,PI)可用于鉴别性早熟[7]。此外,近来研究发现尿促性腺激素(gonadotropin,Gn)水平与血Gn水平之间存在相关性,且尿液标本留取方便、无创,有望成为诊断 CPP 的替代方法,但尚缺乏统一标准[8]。本研究拟通过多普勒子宫动脉成像和盆腔彩超联合晨尿Gn检查,来探讨其在女童CPP诊断中的应用价值,以探寻更加无创、便捷的诊断方法。

  • 1 对象和方法

  • 1.1 对象

  • 选取2022年4月—2023年5月就诊于徐州医科大学淮安临床学院儿科的96例性早熟女童为研究对象。性早熟女童纳入标准:女童8岁前出现乳房发育。排除标准:①继发性性早熟,如由中枢神经系统疾病、肾上腺、性腺疾病或肿瘤等导致的性早熟;②既往服用过影响 HPGA 轴的药物;③依从性差,或因其他原因无法遵医嘱完成治疗者。本研究通过徐州医科大学淮安临床学院伦理委员会批准 (伦理号 KY⁃2022⁃047⁃01)。所有患儿及家长对调查方案知情同意。

  • 1.2 方法

  • 1.2.1 临床资料及分组

  • 由专业的儿科医师对患儿进行详细的病史询问及体格检查。收集患儿一般资料:年龄、体重、身高、Tanner分期等,检测基础血黄体生成素(luteiniz⁃ ing hormone,LH)、卵泡刺激素(follicle ⁃ stimulating hormone,FSH)、雌二醇水平。摄左腕骨龄片, Greulich⁃Pyle法评估骨龄。同时进行盆腔彩超检查评估子宫动脉 PI、子宫体长径、横径、前后径、子宫容积、卵巢容积等。依据 CPP 诊断与治疗专家共识,对可疑CPP患儿进行促性腺激素释放激素类似物(gonadotropin ⁃ releasing hormone agonist,GnRHa) 激发试验:即晨8点空腹皮下注射达必佳(曲普瑞林注射液 2.5 μg/kg,最大不超过 100 μg,规格 0.1 mg 水针剂,辉凌制药公司,德国),分别于注射后 0、15、 30、60、90 min 采血,免疫化学发光法测定血 LH 和 FSH 的水平,根据激发试验结果(LH 峰值≥5.0 U/L 的患儿纳入 CPP 组)结合患儿临床特征,将性早熟患儿分为CPP组和非CPP组。

  • 1.2.2 盆腔超声和多普勒子宫动脉成像

  • 由经验丰富的超声医师进行经腹部盆腔超声评估。测量子宫体及两个卵巢的长径、前后径和横径,记录卵泡大小及数目。椭球公式计算子宫和卵巢容积:体积(cm3)=长径(cm)×横径(cm)×前后径 (cm)×0.523 3。通过将体素采样放置在左右子宫动脉的上行分支上,定位准确后进行光谱多普勒评估,获取连续 3 个稳定的、形态一致的子宫动脉血流频谱。检测左右两侧子宫动脉PI取均值。

  • 1.2.3 晨尿LH、FSH测定

  • 嘱受试患儿晨尿留取前夜避免服药、过度饮水,于睡前排空膀胱,在GnRHa激发试验前留取次日晨尿约5 mL于干燥、洁净的一次性尿管,立即放入4℃标本冰箱中。3 000 r/min下离心10 min,收集上清液存于-80℃冰箱中。免疫化学发光法检测尿LH、FSH水平。

  • 1.3 统计学方法

  • 采用SPSS 26.0软件进行统计分析。定性资料用例数百分率[n(%)]表示,比较采用χ2 检验。对于定量资料,先进行正态分布检验,符合正态分布的数据以均数±标准差(x-±s)表示,相关分析采用Pearson 相关分析,两组样本间比较用t检验;对非正态分布的数据以中位数(四分位数)[MP25P75)]表示,相关分析采用Spearman相关分析,两组样本间比较采用 Mann⁃Whitney检验。绘制受试者操作特征(receiver operating characteristic,ROC)曲线,应用 bootstrap 计算曲线下面积(area under curve,AUC)的 95%置信区间。Logistic 二元回归探讨单一指标与联合指标在诊断女童CPP中的意义。P <0.05为差异有统计学意义。

  • 2.2 两组性早熟女童子宫动脉 PI 及晨尿 Gn 水平比较

  • 两组性早熟女童子宫动脉 PI、晨尿 LH、晨尿 FSH 水平均存在显著差异(P <0.05)。CPP 组子宫动脉 PI 明显低于非 CPP 组;CPP 组的晨尿 LH、FSH 水平明显高于非CPP组(表2)。

  • 2.4 单一指标对女童CPP诊断价值的比较

  • ROC 曲线分析比较子宫动脉 PI、子宫长径、横径、前后径、子宫容积、卵巢容积、晨尿LH、晨尿FSH 在诊断女童 CPP 的价值,结果显示子宫动脉 PI、子宫长径及晨尿 LH 均具有较高的 AUC,对 CPP 的诊断价值较高。其中,子宫动脉 PI 具有较高的特异度,子宫长径具有较高的灵敏度(表3)。

  • 2.5 子宫动脉PI、子宫长径及晨尿LH的联合检测在女童CPP筛查中的效能分析

  • 以 GnRHa 激发试验结果诊断是否为 CPP 为因变量,以子宫动脉PI、子宫长径、晨尿LH为自变量,进行多因素 Logistic 二元回归分析(表4)。根据回归模型生成子宫动脉PI、子宫长径、尿LH三项指标的回归方程:Y=-0.874×子宫动脉PI+0.308×子宫长径+0.575×晨尿 LH-5.074,以该回归方程作为诊断 CPP的联合指标,并以联合指标Y进行ROC曲线分析(图2),其 AUC、灵敏度、特异度分别为 0.974、 98%、90%,优于单一指标。应用 k 折交叉验证 (k=10)对该模型进行评估,得到的AUC、精准率、召回率和F1分数分别为0.85、0.78、0.82和0.81,模型性能相对良好。综上,子宫动脉PI、子宫长径、晨尿LH 3项指标联合诊断CPP效能最高且性能相对良好。

  • 3 讨论

  • 流行病学显示,近年来CPP发病率呈明显上升趋势,且以女童居多[49],可能与久坐、电子设备使用增加、肥胖、环境污染等有关[10-12]。性早熟可导致女孩第二性征提前发育、月经初潮早,骨骺早闭影响终身高,引发一系列心理行为问题[8],因而逐渐成为全社会关注的热点问题。

  • 目前儿童CPP诊断的“金标准”仍是GnRH激发试验[2],然而它是一项昂贵、耗时且有创的检测方法,不易被患儿及家长接受。此外,小剂量GnRH本身即具有促性腺发育的作用,因而存在一定风险。故研究人员致力于寻求更加便捷、无创的诊断方法。

  • 盆腔彩超检查无需住院,而且是非侵入性及可重复性高的操作,患儿及家长依从性高,在女童性早熟诊断方面具有广泛的应用价值[6]。近来研究发现,青春期发育期间,子宫动脉的血液流动模式随着子宫的生长而改变。随着青春期的开始,血管阻力下降,表现为子宫动脉 PI 显著降低[13]。一项 2023 年的系统回顾分析共纳入 10 项研究,对 1 385 名女童进行了盆腔彩超检测并获取子宫动脉 PI,结果显示鉴别性早熟的子宫动脉PI临界值为 2.5~4.6,灵敏度为77%~94%,特异度为85%~100%,准确率为79%~98%[7]。与此相符,本研究发现CPP 组女童子宫动脉 PI 显著低于非 CPP 组。进一步相关分析显示子宫动脉PI与晨尿LH、晨尿FSH、子宫长径、横径、前后径、子宫容积、卵巢容积、血 LH 峰值呈负相关,与血FSH峰值无显著相关。子宫动脉 PI 用于诊断女童 CPP 的 AUC 为 0.915,其最佳临界值为4.15,灵敏度及特异度分别76%和96%,具有较高的诊断价值。表明子宫动脉 PI 测定为 CPP 诊断提供了一种新的思路,且更快捷、无创、有效。然而不同研究得出的子宫动脉PI诊断性早熟的临界值不同,这可能与以下因素有关:研究对象来源的人群不同,CPP诊断标准不同,研究对象的膀胱充盈程度及肠道条件不同,超声设备及超声医师的技能水平不同等[713]

  • CPP 诊断与治疗共识指出,女童盆腔彩超:子宫长度 3.4~4.0 cm,卵巢容积 1~3 mL,提示青春期发育,可作为CPP与正常女童鉴别诊断的辅助检查之一[2]。2021年对13项研究的系统回顾和Meta分析发现,患有 CPP 的女童子宫和卵巢容积明显增大,子宫长度大于3.20 cm是区分CPP和非CPP的可靠标志,诊断优势比为19.62,AUC为0.820[14]。本研究结果显示,与非CPP组相比,CPP组子宫长径、横径、前后径、子宫和卵巢容积均显著增加。通过绘制ROC曲线发现,相较于子宫横径、前后径、子宫容积、卵巢容积,子宫长径具有更好的AUC、灵敏度及特异度。

  • 既往研究表明,性成熟伴随着更多的 LH、FSH 在尿液中排泄[15]。由于夜间Gn的幅度和频率显著增加,晨醒后第一次尿液中的Gn浓度可能反映夜间分泌情况,可作为评估青春期发育的潜在替代方法之一[16]。近年来研究发现晨尿Gn水平与血Gn水平具有显著相关性[17-18]。随着Tanner分期的进展,尿液LH明显升高,且尿液LH水平与GnRH激发试验后血LH峰值呈正相关[18]。尿液Gn评估青春期体征有助于区分慢进展型和快进展型性早熟[19]。提示晨尿Gn测定可能成为CPP初诊的新方法。本研究发现,CPP 组女童晨尿 Gn 水平明显高于非 CPP 女童。通过绘制 ROC 曲线发现,晨尿 LH 诊断女童 CPP 的 AUC 为 0.925,最佳临界值为 1.30 U/L,其灵敏度为91%,特异度84%,优于晨尿FSH,后者诊断女童 CPP 的 AUC、灵敏度、特异度分别为 0.763、 72%、74%。进一步相关分析显示,晨尿 LH 水平与血 GnRHa 激发试验 LH 峰值存在显著正相关 (r=0.667,P <0.05)。这些研究结果与既往研究结果相一致[1820]。Lee等[21] 测定随机尿LH水平,最佳临界值为 0.71 U/L,诊断 CPP 的灵敏度和特异度分别为65.4%和63.6%,因此晨尿LH检测用于评估女童 CPP 比随机尿 LH 检测效果更优。此外,不同研究得出的晨尿 LH 最佳临界值存在差异,考虑与不同实验室检测 LH 所用试剂盒不同、尿液标本存放时间不同等因素有关[22]

  • 本课题组先前研究发现,晨尿促性腺激素联合血清促性腺激素及盆腔彩超在初诊性早熟方面具有应用价值[8],然而其中血清促性腺激素检测仍是有创检查。查阅文献资料,发现子宫动脉PI在鉴别性早熟方面有潜在应用价值。然而对于子宫动脉PI在性早熟方面的研究仍处于初步阶段,相关文献资料较少,且未见文献报道子宫动脉PI联合其他指标在诊断女童性早熟方面的运用,因此,本研究将晨尿促性腺激素、子宫动脉PI、盆腔超声这3个无创指标相结合,其联合诊断性早熟的AUC、灵敏度、特异度分别为 0.974、98%、90%,均优于单一指标,也优于之前研究的灵敏度(92.3%),提高了诊断女童 CPP的灵敏度及初步诊断效能。

  • 综上所述,子宫动脉 PI、子宫长径、晨尿 LH 单一指标在诊断女童CPP上均具有一定应用价值,三者联合时可显著提高诊断女童 CPP 的灵敏度及初步诊断效能,降低误诊及漏诊率,有良好的应用前景。盆腔彩超检查和尿液Gn检测均是方便、可重复性高且无创的检查方法,患儿无畏惧心理,还可减轻家长的经济负担。但本研究尚存在不足之处:首先,病例数较少;其次,未监测CPP治疗随访过程中各参数水平变化;最后,本研究使用多因素Logistic 回归后直接进行ROC曲线分析,这可能导致过度拟合进而高估模型的性能。后续研究将扩大病例数,并展开多中心研究,对GnRHa治疗病例进行随访,以进一步验证其在女童 CPP 诊断、治疗、随访中的临床应用价值。
