Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)-related hypophysitis. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients diagnosed with ICI-related hypophysitis and treated at the Department of Endocrinology, The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University, between January 2020 and March 2025. Clinical manifestations and prognosis of patients were analyzed. Results Eleven patients with ICI-related hypophysitis were included. The average age was (62.27±7.63) years, and 9 patients (81.82%) were male. The median time to onset was 9.1 months, and the median number of treatment cycles received was 5. The primary initial symptoms were fatigue and anorexia. Hyponatremia was present in 3 patients (27.27%). Evaluation of anterior pituitary function revealed adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency as the most common manifestation (90.91%, 10/11), followed by hyperprolactinemia (81.82%, 9/11). Posterior pituitary function remained normal in all patients. Pituitary magnetic resonance imaging showed no abnormality in 4 patients (44.44%). Thyroid dysfunction was observed in 6 patients (54.55%), one of whom (9.09%) also exhibited pancreatic endocrine dysfunction. The average follow-up duration was 36.5 months. Eight patients (72.73%) were alive at the last follow-up. None of the patients recovered their pituitary hormone function. Conclusions Endocrine adverse events induced by ICIs can involve multiple glandular systems. Clinicians should be highly vigilant for the possibility of ICI-induced hypophysitis in patients receiving ICIs who present with symptoms such as fatigue, anorexia, and hyponatremia.

Objective:To investigate the drug resistance of newly diagnosed HIV-1 infected patients in Shanghai and to provide reference value for clinical antiretroviral therapy (ART).Methods:The peripheral venous blood plasma of 196 newly diagnosed HIV-1 infected patients screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria at the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center from April to June 2023 was collected, HIV-1 RNA was extracted, the pol region was amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) for sequencing, the mutation sites and ART drug resistance were analyzed.Results:The plasma of 196 newly diagnosed HIV-1 infected patients was amplified successfully in 162 cases (amplification success rate was 82.65%). The subtypes consisted of CRF07_BC(51.23%), CRF01_AE (27.78%), and others (6.79%), CRF55_01B (5.56%), B (3.70%), CRF01_AE/B (3.70%) and CRF08_BC (1.23%). The overall transmitted drug resistance rate was 7.41%, the protease inhibitors (PIs), non-nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), integrase inhibitors (INSTIs) resistance rates were 3.09%, 3.70%, 0.00% and 0.62%, respectively. The proportion of NNRTIs-related mutation sites in B (66.67%) and CRF55_01B (88.89%) was higher than that in CRF07_BC (13.25%); the proportion of NNRTIs-related mutation sites in CRF55_01B (88.89%) was higher than that in CRF01_AE (22.22%) and other subtypes (18.18%), the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the probability of PIs-related mutation sites in CRF01_AE/B was 21.71 times that of CRF07_BC[odds ratio ( OR)=21.71, 95% confidence interval ( CI): 3.36-140.27, P=0.001]. Conclusions:The transmitted drug resistance among newly diagnosed HIV-1 infected patients in Shanghai is at the moderate epidemic level, mainly NNRTIs and PIs-related drug resistance, and the INSTIs resistance rate is low, the use of INSTIs in ART regimens should be considered.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between peripheral blood eosinophil (EOS) level and clinical characteristics of patients with pneumoconiosis complicated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) .Methods:From January 2007 to November 2020, newly diagnosed patients with pneumoconiosis complicated with COPD in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital, were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were stratified into EOS<100 cells/μl group and EOS≥100 cells/μl group, taking 100 cells/μl as the cut-off value. Demographic characteristics, clinical symptoms, lung function and laboratory indexes were compared between the two groups.Results:The median EOS count of patients with pneumoconiosis complicated with COPD was 100 (40, 180) cells/μl. 50.2% (160/319) had blood eosinophil counts ≥100 cells/μl, and 11.0% (35/319) had blood eosinophil counts ≥300 cells/μl. In comparison with EOS<100 cells/μl group, EOS≥100 cells/μl group were older ( P=0.035), had higher body mass index ( P=0.008), and had lower forced respiratory volume in the first second ( P=0.017), had higher the ratio of residual volume to total lung volume ( P=0.010), and had lower diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide ( P=0.008). Arterial partial pressure of oxygen was significantly reduced in EOS≥100 cells/μl group ( P=0.039). The peripheral blood EOS count was negatively correlated with forced vital capacity, forced breathing volume in the first second, carbon monoxide diffusion, peak expiratory flow, and maximum mid expiratory flow as a percentage of expected values ( rs=-0.22, -0.18, -0.19, -0.19, -0.19, P=0.000, 0.001, 0.003, 0.008, 0.002), and positively correlated with the ratio of residual air volume to total lung volume ( rs=0.17, P=0.002) . Conclusion:There was a correlation between blood EOS count and pulmonary function parameters, can proide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of chnoric obstuctive pulmmory disease in clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the clinical charecteristics, imaging features, therapy and prognosis of stroke in children, and provide help for clinical treatment.Methods:The clinical data of 49 children with stroke were collectedand retrospectively analyzed in the Children′s Hospital of Soochow University from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019.Results:A mong the 49 children with stroke, 35 were male and 14 were female, aged 1-178 (65.69 ± 55.22) months; the specific etiologies were cerebrovascular malformation, craniocerebral trauma, tumor, vitamin K deficiencies, infectious diseases, rheumatic immune diseases, hemophilia and congenital heart disease. The first symptoms of stroke were disturbance of consciousness, hemiplegia, convulsions, vomiting and headache. The arterial ischemic stroke (18 cases) were mainly caused by craniocerebral trauma and cerebrovascular malformation. The hemorrhagic stroke (31 cases) were mainly caused by arteriovenous malformation, vitamin K deficiency and tumor. The surgical rate in the arterial stroke group was significantly lower than that in the hemorrhagic stroke group.Conclusions:Traumatic cerebral infarction and intracranial arteriovenous malformation are the main causes of arterial ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke in children. Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the urine of normal healthy left-behind children under 1 year old and left-behind children with zinc deficiency under 1 year old in Zunyi area using hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1HNMR), thus providing a new biomarker for the early diagnosis of zinc deficiency. Methods:From January to August 2018, a total of 40 normal healthy left-behind children under 1 year old in Zunyi area(healthy control group)[22 males and 18 females, average age of (7.78±3.62) months, average height of (65.01±2.67) cm and average body mass of (7.15±1.59) kg] and 40 age-matched left-behind children with zinc deficiency in the same region(zinc deficiency group)[19 males and 21 females, average age of (7.89±3.57) months, average height of (64.25±2.95) cm and average body mass of (7.02±1.68) kg] were included for a cross-sectional study by stratified sampling.The urine 1HNMR spectra of children in the 2 groups were measured, and the age, height, body mass and serum zinc content of children in the 2 groups were compared.The metabolites of the 2 groups were compared by metabono-mics technology combined with multivariate statistical analysis, and the differential metabolites of children with zinc deficiency were screened out. Results:There were no significant differences in age, height and body mass between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). The serum zinc level of healthy control group was significantly higher than that of zinc deficiency group [(54.3±3.06) mmol/L vs.(39.2±3.77) mmol/L, t=22.65, P<0.05]. Urine 1HNMR spectrogram results showed that compared with healthy controls, 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid, phenyl acetyl glycine, and hippuric acid salt water were significantly lower in zinc deficiency group ( r=-0.620, -0.689, and -0.721, respectively, all | r|>0.602, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Zinc deficiency in left-behind children under 1 year old in Zunyi area is mainly manifested by decreased metabolites of 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvic acid, phenylacetyl glycine and horse-urate, suggesting metabolic disorder of intestinal flora.Differentially expressed metabolites have a potential application value in the early diagnosis of zinc deficiency.

Objective:To systematically review the effects of the traditional Chinese medicine compound based on astragalus and angelica on bone marrow suppression after chemotherapy.Methods:Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about the traditional Chinese medicine compound based on astragalus and angelica for bone marrow suppression after chemotherapy for malignant tumors were retrieved from Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, OVID, SinoMed, CNKI, VIP, and Wanfang Databases. The search period was from the establishment of the database to September 2019. The literatures were screened and the data were extracted independently by two researchers and RevMan 5.3 was used for Meta-analysis.Results:Totally 15 RCTs were included, involving 1 019 patients. Meta-analysis results showed that there were statistically significant differences in peripheral blood leukocytes [ SMD=1.32; 95% CI (0.76, 1.89) ; P<0.000 01], platelets [ MD=25.05; 95% CI (8.00, 42.10) ; P=0.004], hemoglobin [ MD=24.14; 95% CI (16.34, 31.94) ; P<0.000 01] and clinical symptoms [ RR=1.38; 95% CI (1.25, 1.52) ; P<0.000 01] between the chemotherapy group, the chemotherapy combined with the western medicine group and the traditional Chinese medicine compound group. Conclusions:The traditional Chinese medicine compound based on astragalus and angelica can improve the level of peripheral blood cells, reduce bone marrow suppression, and improve clinical symptoms and quality of life of patients with cancer after chemotherapy. However, due to the low quality of the included literature and the large heterogeneity of some of the results, more rigorously designed high-quality RCTs are needed for further verification.

Objective:To explore the current status and influencing factors of knowledge, attitude and practice of drug clinical trials among ovarian cancer patients.Methods:From July 2017 to December 2018, we selected 90 families of asthma children in Observation Room of Hangzhou Children's Hospital. All families were divided into observation group ( n=44) and control group ( n=46) with the method of random number table. In control group, pediatric specialist nurses provided regular self-management guidance and health education to children's families. Observation group received the intervention of asthma family empowerment program. Before intervention (when asthma children and their family members entered the Observation Room for treatment) and after intervention (the sixth week after intervention) , we evaluated the outcome indicators with the Parenting Stress Index (PSI) , Family Environment Scale (FES) and the Asthma Severity Scale. Results:The total score of PSI and scores of asthma status of observation group were lower than those of control group, and dimension scores of FES of observation group were better than those of control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Asthma family empowerment program is beneficial to reduce parents' stress index, improve functional status and children's asthma symptoms.
