| Sumario: | This research was to explore the adoption value of computed tomography (CT) images based on adaptive statistical iterative reconstruction (ASIR) algorithm in the evaluation of probiotics combined with ursodeoxycholic acid in the treatment of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP). A total of 82 patients with ICP were selected as the research subjects and they were randomly rolled into experimental group (380 mg probiotics enteric-soluble capsule twice a day, combined with 90 mg ursodeoxycholic acid soft capsule three times a day) and control group (90 mg ursodeoxycholic acid soft capsule three times a day), with 41 cases in each. The treatment course was four months. The ASIR algorithm was constructed and applied to the CT image analysis and diagnosis of ICP patients. The effects of filtering back projection (FBP) reconstruction and ASIR algorithm on CT image quality, denoising degree, and artifacts of ICP patients were compared. Moreover, blood indicator levels of ICP patients before and after treatment were assessed. The results showed that the SD values of liver and gallbladder (20.77 Hu and 27.58 Hu) in the reconstructed image of the ASIR algorithm were significantly lower than those of the FBP algorithm (40.58 Hu and 45.63 Hu) (P<0.05). The SNR values of the liver and gallbladder (3.68 and 2.05) of the reconstructed image were significantly higher than those of the FBP algorithm (1.91 and 1.19) (P<0.05). The overall image quality after ASIR reconstruction (3.92 points) was significantly better than that of the FBP algorithm (2.36 points), and the image noise score (3.21 points) reconstructed by the FBP algorithm was higher than that by the ASIR algorithm (1.83 points). The artifact score of FBP reconstructed image (4.47 points) was greatly higher than that of ASIR algorithm (2.26 points) (P<0.05). Before treatment, there was no remarkable difference in the indexes between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). After treatment, the γ-glutamyltransferase (γ-GT) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels (327.55 U/L and 778.15 μmol/L) of the experimental group of ICP patients were higher than those of the control group (248.63 U/L and 668.43 μmol/L), with substantial difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The blood ammonia (BA) level (151.09 μmol/L) of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group (178.46 μmol/L), and the difference between the two groups was remarkable (P<0.05). To sum up, the CT image denoising degree based on ASIR algorithm was high, with few artifacts and good overall quality. Probiotics combined with ursodeoxycholic acid in the treatment of ICP can effectively improve the liver function and intestinal flora of patients, which was of great significance in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of the disease. |
