BACKGROUND:Vertebroplasty (VP), kyphoplasty (KP), SpineJack system (SJ), radiofrequency kyphoplasty (RFK), Kiva system (Kiva), Sky kyphoplasty system (SK), and conservative treatment are widely used in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs). However, it is still unknown which is the best intervention. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of VP, KP, SJ, RFK, Kiva, SK, and CT in the treatment of OVCFs. METHODS:Randomized controlled trials and cohort studies comparing VP, KP, SJ, RFK, Kiva, SK, or CT for the treatment of OVCFs were identified on the basis of databases including PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Springer Link. A network meta-analysis was performed using STATA 15.1. RESULTS:A total of 56 studies with 6974 patients and 7 interventions were included in this study. The results of the surface under the cumulative probability demonstrated that SK was the best intervention in decreasing VAS scores and recovering middle vertebral height, RFK was the best intervention in improving ODI scores and decreasing incidence of new fractures, SJ was the best intervention to restore kyphosis angle, and Kiva was the best intervention to reduce incidence of bone cement leakage. Cluster analysis showed that SK was the preferable intervention on the basis of the outcomes of VAS, ODI, middle vertebral height, and kyphotic angle, and RFK was the preferable treatment in decreasing the incidence of adverse events. In our network meta-analysis, node-splitting analysis and loop inconsistency analysis showed no significant inconsistencies. CONCLUSIONS:SK may be the most effective treatment in relieving pain, improving the quality of life, and recovering vertebral body height and kyphotic angle, while RFK may be the safest intervention for OVCFs. However, considering the limitations of this study, more high-quality trials are needed in the future to confirm the current conclusion.
Objective: To research the effects of time of flight (TOF) technique and point spread function (PSF) algorithms on the image quality of PET in the image reconstruction of integrated PET-MR. Methods: The NU 2-2007 protocol of NEMA was followed. The image quality phantom following IEC Standard 61675-1 was adopted in the research. All scan and image reconstruction were performed on PET/MR and matched AW4.6 workstation of GE SIGNA. Different algorithms (TOF+PSF, TOF+non-PSF, non-TOF+PSF, and non-TOF+non-PSF) were applied in image reconstruction of PET. The obtained PET images were quantitatively evaluated and analyzed by following parameters: contrast recovery of hot and cold spheres (QHand QC), background variability (Nj) and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of hot spheres. Results: For quantitative image quality evaluation, results of (non-TOF+non-PSF) were used as reference. The average QHof (non-TOF+PSF), (TOF+non-PSF) and (TOF+PSF) were increased 7.61%, 20.94% and 40.17%, respectively. The average QCof TOF alone and (TOF+PSF) were increased 11.29% and 12.32%, respectively. The average Nmeanof PSF alone, TOF alone and (TOF+PSF) were decreased 2.28%, 21.44% and 30.03%, respectively. And the SNR of PSF alone, TOF alone and (TOF+PSF) were increased 11.52%, 44.28% and 92.70%, respectively. Conclusion: Both TOF and PSF can improve the overall image quality of PET, and it is more obvious when they are used in combination.
