Etude du lien entre l’exposition aux polluants organiques persistants et l’endométriose / Relationship between exposure to persistent organic pollutants and endometriosis

Ploteau, Stéphane 07 October 2016 (has links)
L’endométriose est une maladie gynécologique pour laquelle l’exposition à certains contaminants chimiques environnementaux est évoquée parmi les facteurs de risque associés. Les conclusions des études épidémiologiques existantes restent toutefois non convergentes. Leur hétérogénéité en termes de lésions décrites, de méthodologie et d’effectifs contribuent à ce constat, de même que l’étendue limitée des marqueurs d’exposition considérés dans ces études. Nous avons réalisé une étude cas-témoins appariés à partir d’une bio-collection de 113 patientes réunissant68 cas de patientes opérées d’endométriose profonde et 45 patientes témoins. Un ensemble unique de 78 polluants organiques persistants a été recherché, incluant dioxines, polychlorobiphényles, retardateurs de flamme polybromés, et pesticides organochlorés. Les niveaux d’exposition interne des sujets ont été mesurés à la fois dans les tissus adipeux pariétal et épiploïque ainsi que dans le sérum. La distribution de ces différents polluants au sein de ces trois compartiments a tout d’abord été caractérisée. Celle-ci a permis la prise en compte encore très rare de l’équilibre entre compartiments de stockage et compartiment circulant, ce rapport de concentration apparaissant comme un potentiel indicateur additionnel permettant d’affiner d’éventuels liens de causalité entre exposition chronique à des dangers chimiques et pathologie chez l’homme. Certains des contaminants ciblés sont ensuite apparus significativement associés à l’endométriose profonde, la stratification plus fine de notre population de cas indiquant un lien d’autant plus significatif en présence d’endométriome. Les mécanismes sous-jacents de cette association restent toutefois à élucider. / Endometriosis is a gynecological disease for whichexposure to some environmental chemicals is evocatedamong the associated risk factors. Epidemiological studies are however globally non convergent and finally fairly conclusive. Their heterogeneity in terms of lesion localization and sub-phenotype, methodology, size and nature of the populations studied, as well as the limited number of monitored markers of exposure contribute to this situation. We realized a matched case-control study based on a biocollection of 113 patients including 68 patients suffering of deep endometriosis and 45 controls. We characterized the internal exposure levels of an extended range of around 78 persistent organic pollutants (including dioxins, polychlorobiphenyls, brominated flame retardants and organochlorine pesticides). Internal level exposures were measured in three biological compartments (omental fat, subcutaneous fat and serum). First, the distribution of these chemicals was characterized within these compartments. These extended exposure data from deep infiltrating endometriosis patients are the first ones available for France and give a new insight about the equilibrium of chemicals between storage and circulating compartments that should be further considered as a potential indicator permitting to establish a possible association between a chronic exposure to chemical hazards and human pathology. Afterwards, some of the targeted chemicals appeared significantly associated with deep endometriosis. A sub-stratification of our case population indicated a more significant relationship with the presence of endometrioma. Underlying mechanisms remain to be determined.

Qualidade da imagem nas pacientes com suspeita de Endometriose infiltrada profunda : comparação entre a ultrassonografia transvaginal antes e após a realização do preparo retal / Picture quality in patients with suspected deep endometriosis infiltrating : comparison transvaginal ultrasonography before and after performing the rectal preparation

Comparar a qualidade da imagem entre a ultrassonografia transvaginal sem preparo intestinal e após preparo intestinal nas pacientes com suspeita de endometriose infiltrativa profunda do compartimento posterior e avaliar do grau de desconforto das pacientes em relação ao preparo intestinal. Estudo transversal com dados coletados prospectivamente, incluindo 39 pacientes com suspeita clínica de endometriose do compartimento posterior do ambulatório de Endometriose do Hospital Universitário Pedro Ernesto (HUPE) da Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ), no Rio de Janeiro. As pacientes foram submetidas à ultrassonografia transvaginal (USTVG) sem preparo intestinal prévio, seguido de nova USTVG uma hora após realização do enema retal. Os vídeos dos exames gravados foram editados, com ênfase na avaliação do compartimento posterior, com interesse na identificação do nódulo retrocervical e do retossigmóide. Foram graduados conforme a qualidade da imagem pelo examinador e por um radiologista (ambos mascarados), que marcaram uma nota de 0 a 10, usando a escala analógica visual. Restaram apenas 26 pacientes. Em relação ao desconforto devido a realização do enema retal, todas pacientes (100%) relataram apenas um desconforto discreto. Conforme a opção escolhida pelos avaliadores em relação ao melhor método, eles concordaram em 13 (50%) pacientes que a ultrassonografia transvaginal com preparo retal é melhor. Foi usado o teste não-paramétrico de Wilcoxon para amostras dependentes. O p-valor obtido foi de 0.042, considerado significativo (abaixo de 0.05). Isto significa que a realização do enema retal antes da realização da ultrassonografia transvaginal proporcionou uma qualidade melhor na avaliação dos nódulos. A diferença entre as avaliações com e sem preparo retal é maior nos nódulos menores que 2cm, porque encontramos a diferença de 1,1 entre os valores das medianas dos dois tipos de exames. Nos nódulos maiores que 2cm, a diferença encontrada foi de apenas 0,65. A realização do enema retal previamente à realização da ultrassonografia transvaginal no diagnóstico do nódulo endometriótico mostra uma melhora discretamente significativa na qualidade da imagem, comparativamente a não realização de preparo intestinal prévio. Somente nos casos onde o nódulo era menor que 2 cm, foram encontrados valores estatisticamente significativos com o preparo retal. O enema retal causa discreto desconforto, porém isto não parece ser um fator limitante na realização da ultrassonografia com preparo intestinal. / To compare image quality between the transvaginal ultrasound without bowel preparation and after bowel preparation in patients with suspected deep infiltrating endometriosis of the posterior compartment and evaluate the degree of discomfort of patients in relation to bowel preparation. Cross sectional data collected prospectively, including 39 patients with clinical suspicion of endometriosis of the posterior compartment of the endometriosis clinic of the Hospital Universitário Pedro Ernesto (HUPE) State University of Rio de Janeiro (UERJ), in Rio de Janeiro . The patients underwent transvaginal sonography (USTVG) without prior bowel preparation, followed by new USTVG one hour after completion of the rectal enema. The recorded videos of the tests were published, with emphasis on evaluation of the posterior compartment, with interest in the identification of the nodule retrocervical and rectosigmoid. Were graded according to the quality of the image by the examiner and by a radiologist (both masked), which marked a score from 0 to 10, using the visual analog scale. That left only 26 patients. Regarding the realization of discomfort due to rectal enema, all patients (100%) reported only mild discomfort. Depending on the option chosen by the evaluators regarding the best method, they agreed in 13 (50%) patients with transvaginal ultrasound rectal preparation is better. We used the nonparametric Wilcoxon test for dependent samples. The p-value obtained was 0042 and considered significant (less than 0.05). This means that the completion of rectal enema prior to the transvaginal ultrasound provided a better quality in the evaluation of nodules. The difference between evaluations with and without rectal preparation is higher in nodules smaller than 2 cm, because we found a difference of 1.1 between the median values of the two types of tests. In nodules larger than 2cm, the difference was only 0.65. The performance of the rectal enema prior to the performance of transvaginal sonography in the diagnosis of endometriotic nodule shows a slightly significant improvement in image quality, compared to non-completion of bowel preparation prior. Only in cases where the lump was less than 2 cm were found statistically significant values with rectal preparation. The rectal enema cause mild discomfort, but this does not seem to be a limiting factor in the performance of ultrasound with bowel preparation
