This study examined the effects of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and associated preparative regimens on vascular structure and function. Measures of carotid artery stiffness and brachial artery endothelial-dependent dilation were obtained in patients who had survived ≥ 2 years after HCT for hematologic malignancy and were diagnosed at ≤21 years. HCT survivors (n = 108) were examined: 66 received total body irradiation (TBI) alone or with a low-dose cranial radiation boost (TBI±LD-CRT), 19 received TBI plus high-dose cranial radiation (TBI+HD-CRT), and 23 received a chemotherapy-only preparative regimen (CHEMO). Siblings (n = 83) were invited to participate as control subjects. Although endothelial-dependent dilation did not differ between siblings and HCT survivors, carotid cross-sectional compliance, cross-sectional distensibility, diameter compliance, and diameter distensibility were greater in siblings than HCT survivors. Comparing the HCT preparative regimens, carotid cross-sectional compliance, cross-sectional distensibility, diameter compliance, diameter distensibility, and incremental elastic modulus were significantly lower in the TBI+HD-CRT group compared with siblings or with TBI±LD-CRT and CHEMO treatment groups. Cross-sectional distensibility and diameter compliance were significantly lower in the TBI±LD-CRT group compared with siblings. TBI±LD-CRT and CHEMO groups did not differ from each other in these vascular measures. HCT preparative regimens containing TBI+HD-CRT resulted in greater arterial decrements, indicating increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
本研究旨在探讨造血细胞移植(HCT)及其相关预处理方案对血管结构和功能的影响。在血液恶性肿瘤患者接受 HCT 治疗后≥2 年且≤21 岁时,对其进行颈动脉僵硬度和肱动脉内皮依赖性扩张的测量。共纳入 108 例 HCT 幸存者进行检查:66 例接受单纯全身照射(TBI)或低剂量颅脑照射(TBI±LD-CRT),19 例接受 TBI 联合高剂量颅脑照射(TBI+HD-CRT),23 例接受单纯化疗预处理方案(CHEMO)。同时邀请 83 名同胞作为对照参与研究。尽管内皮依赖性扩张在同胞和 HCT 幸存者之间没有差异,但同胞的颈动脉横截面积顺应性、横截面积可扩张性、直径顺应性和直径可扩张性均大于 HCT 幸存者。比较 HCT 预处理方案,TBI+HD-CRT 组的颈动脉横截面积顺应性、横截面积可扩张性、直径顺应性、直径可扩张性和弹性模量增量均显著低于同胞或 TBI±LD-CRT 和 CHEMO 治疗组。与同胞相比,TBI±LD-CRT 组的横截面积可扩张性和直径顺应性显著降低。TBI±LD-CRT 和 CHEMO 组在这些血管指标上无差异。含有 TBI+HD-CRT 的 HCT 预处理方案导致动脉功能下降更大,表明心血管疾病风险增加。
