To study approaches to the quantitative assessment of breast arterial calcification (BAC) – a new surrogate marker of high cardiovascular risk in women, to determine the most detailed way to quantify BAC and to assess the reproducibility of these parameters.</p></sec><sec><title>Material and methods</title><p>Material and methods. Mammograms of 1,078 women were analyzed for the presence of BAC. The intraoperator reproducibility of the assessment of the severity of BAC using a 12-point scale (Margolies L et al., 2016) was studied by analyzing 20 mammograms by the same operator twice with an interval of at least 2 weeks. Inter-operator reproducibility was studied by analyzing 99 mammograms by two independent operators.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. When assessing the intraoperative reproducibility of the total score for each mammary gland, the exact coincidence of the results was noted in 70% (95% confidence interval [CI] 53.5-83.4), in cases of difference of no more than 1 point – in 27.5% (95%CI 14.6-43.9), only in 1 case the difference in assessments was 2 points. No systematic error was found between the two measurements (p=1.0), the correlation coefficient was rs=0.973. The assessment of inter-operator reproducibility showed that the exact coincidence of indicators was present in 48.5% (95%CI 41.3-55.7), in 91.4% (95% CI 86.6-94.9) cases, the total score for each the mammary gland differed by no more than 1 point. There was no systematic error between the measurements of the two experts (p=0.438), the correlation coefficient was rs=0.942.</p></sec><sec><title>Conclusion</title><p>Conclusion. A good intraoperator and interoperator reproducibility of indicators of the severity of BAC on a 12-point scale has been shown, which makes it possible to recommend it for use in science and practice.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><sec><title>Цель</title><p>Цель. Изучить известные на сегодня подходы к количественной оценке кальциноза артерий молочной железы (КАМЖ) – нового суррогатного маркера высокого сердечно-сосудистого риска у женщин, определить наиболее детализированный способ количественной оценки КАМЖ и оценить воспроизводимость измеряемых параметров.</p></sec><sec><title>Материал и методы</title><p>Материал и методы. На предмет наличия КАМЖ были проанализированы маммограммы 1078 женщин. Внутриоператорская воспроизводимость оценки степени тяжести КАМЖ с помощью 12-балльной шкалы исследована при двукратном анализе 20 маммограмм одним и тем же оператором с интервалом не менее 2 нед. Межоператорская воспроизводимость изучена при анализе 99 маммограмм двумя независимыми операторами, не знакомыми с клиническими данными пациенток.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. При оценке внутриоператорской воспроизводимости показателя суммарного балла по каждой молочной железе точное совпадение результатов отмечено в 70% (95% доверительный интервал [ДИ] 53,5-83,4), случаев, различия не более 1 балла – в 27,5% (95%ДИ 14,6-43,9), лишь в 1 случае различие оценок составило 2 балла. Систематической ошибки между двумя измерениями не обнаружено (p=1,0), коэффициент корреляции rs=0,973. Оценка межоператорской воспроизводимости показала, что точное совпадение показателей имелось в 48,5% (95%ДИ 41,3-55,7), в 91,4% (95%ДИ 86,6-94,9) случаев показатель суммарного балла по каждой молочной железе различался не более чем на 1 балл. Систематической ошибки между измерениями двух экспертов не обнаружено (p=0,438), коэффициент корреляции rs=0,942.</p></sec><sec><title>Заключение</title><p>Заключение. Показана хорошая внутриоператорская и межоператорская воспроизводимость показателей степени тяжести КАМЖ по 12-балльной шкале, что позволяет рекомендовать ее для использования в научной и практической работе.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>кальциноз артерий молочной железы</kwd><kwd>маммограммы</kwd><kwd>воспроизводимость</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>breast arterial calcification</kwd><kwd>mammograms</kwd><kwd>reproducibility</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Исследование проведено при поддержке Национального медицинского исследовательского центра терапии и профилактической медицины</funding-statement><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The study was performed with the support of the National Medical Research Center for Therapy and Preventive Medicine</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Roth GA, Abate D, Abate KH, et al.
