Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis(PAP)is a rare progressive respiratory dysfunction disease of the lung characterized by insidious onset and non-specific clinical manifestations,often leading to misdiagnosed and mistreated.Herein,we reported a case of PAP patient admitted to Jiading District Central Hospital with an atypical appearance of alveolar lavage fluid and whose condition improved significantly after treatment with subcutaneous injection of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor(GM-CSF).Additionally,we have reviewed and summarized the relevant literature to enhance the understanding of the diagnosis and treatment of this disease.

Objective To analyze the monitoring of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in the intensive care unit(ICU)over the past 12 years based on Joinpoint regression model,and evaluate the trend changes and relevant fac-tors of HAI incidence.Methods ICU patients in a tertiary first-class hospital from January 2012 to December 2023 were selected and performed prospective monitoring.Trend changes of HAI incidence and the correlation with con-sumption of hand hygiene products as well as HAI management measures were analyzed.Results From 2012 to 2023,6 929 ICU patients were included in the monitoring,543 patients had 655 episodes of HAI,with incidence and case incidence of HAI being 7.84％ and 9.45％,respectively.The average severity of the disease was 3.62,and the adjusted HAI incidence was 2.17％.The daily incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP),cathe-ter-associated urinary tract infection(CAUTI),and central line-associated bloodstream infection(CLABSI)were 6.19‰,3.45‰,and 1.23‰,respectively.The consumption of hand hygiene products was 122.98 mL/bed-day.The compliance rate and correct rate of hand hygiene were 90.63％and 90.46％,respectively.From 2012 to 2023,incidence of HAI(51.29％vs 4.39％),case incidence of HAI(72.41％vs 4.94％),the adjusted incidence of HAI(15.98％vs 1.04％),daily incidence of VAP(22.50‰ vs 4.33‰),daily incidence of CAUTI(14.23‰ vs 1.64‰),and daily incidence of CLABSI(10.60‰ vs 0.20‰)all decreased significantly(all P＜0.05).Both con-sumption of hand hygiene products(75.16 mL/bed-day vs 147.35 mL/bed-day)and correct rate of hand hygiene(85.00％vs 90.28％)increased significantly(both P＜0.05).A total of 1 946 pathogens were detected,with an increase in the proportion of Staphylococcus aureus(1.30％ vs 9.57％)and a decrease in the proportion of fungi(11.04％vs 1.74％).The daily consumption of hand hygiene products negatively correlated with the incidence of HAI,the case incidence of HAI,as well as the daily incidence of CAUTI and CLABSI(all P＜0.05).Incorpora-ting HAI real-time monitoring system and HAI management into performance assessment could decrease HAI-rela-ted incidence(P＜0.05).Conclusion HAI-related incidence presents a downward trend.Scientific and comprehen-sive HAI prevention and control management measures such as healthcare workers'hand hygiene management,on-line HAI real-time monitoring system,and incorporating HAI management into performance assessment can de-crease HAI-related incidence and promote the improvement of medical quality.

Objective To translate the Context Assessment for Community Health(COACH)scale into Chinese,thereby providing a standardized measurement tool for context assessment in clinical evidence-based practice.Methods The scale was translated following the Brislin translation model,ultimately forming the Chinese version of the COACH scale.Using convenience sampling,584 healthcare professionals were recruited from 3 tertiary hospitals in Jiangxi,Henan,and Liaoning provinces and 2 community hospitals in Liaoning province from May to September 2024 to evaluate the reliability and validity of the scale.In October 2024,the Chinese version of COACH was applied to 44 healthcare professionals in a hypertension specialist ward of a provincial tertiary hospital.Results Of the 584 distributed questionnaires,519 valid questionnaires were collected(the effective response rate of 88.87％).The Chinese version consists of 7 dimensions with 42 items.The overall Cronbach's α coefficient was 0.975;the McDonald's omega coefficient was 0.979;split-half reliability was 0.808,and the test-retest reliability was 0.917.The scale-content validity index/average was 0.950,and the scale-content validity index/universal agreement was 0.980,with item-content validity index ranging from 0.775 to 1.000.Exploratory factor analysis extracted 7 factors,accounting for 79.260％of the cumulative variance,with factor loadings ranging from 0.569 to 0.954.Confirmatory factor analysis showed good model fit.The preliminary application results showed that the total score of the scale was 185.18±17.82.The correlation coefficients between dimensions and total score ranged from 0.116 to 0.905.Conclusion The Chinese version of the COACH scale demonstrates good reliability and validity,making it suitable as a context measurement tool for implementation research at different stages in clinical and public health settings.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the common critical illnesses characterized by a higher incidence, poor prognosis and limited effective therapeutics in clinical practice. Early diagnosis, etiologic differentiation and prognostic evaluation are crucial for improving outcomes and key components of integrated AKI management. However, the lack of ideal markers and intervention targets poses significant challenges in these aspects. Klotho, a protein predominantly synthesizes and secretes by renal tubular epithelial cells, has been shown to exert various protective effects on the kidney. Recent evidence suggests that abnormal Klotho levels are implicated in the pathogenesis and development of AKI, and hold promise for application in early diagnosis, etiologic recognition, and prognostic evaluation of AKI. Additionally, administration of exogenous Klotho protein or upregulation of endogenous Klotho expression has demonstrated preventive and therapeutic efficacy against AKI caused by a variety of etiologies. This paper reviewed the alterations in Klotho levels during AKI and evaluated its potential role in enhancing the integrated diagnosis and treatment of AKI.

TAFRO syndrome is an idiopathic systemic inflammatory disease that overlaps with idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD). The clinical features of TAFRO syndrome include thrombocytopenia (T), anasarca (A), fever (F), reticulin fibrosis/renal insufficiency (R) and organomegaly (O). The paper reports a special clinical subtype of iMCD—TAFRO syndrome in a patient, manifested as multiple-system involvement including serous effusion (ascites), fever, thrombocytopenia, anemia, multiple lymphadenopathies, pancreatitis and renal insufficiency. Bone marrow biopsy pathology showed active bone marrow hyperplasia. Renal biopsy revealed renal thrombotic microangiopathy, acute renal tubular interstitial injury combined with chronic lesions. Lymph node biopsy demonstrated lymphoproliferative lesions consistent with Castleman disease (hyaline vascular type). Following diagnosis, glucocorticoids, tacrolimus, rituximab and lenalidomide were administered, resulting in significant symptomatic improvement: ascites disappeared, and urinary findings, erythrocyte counts, renal function and hematological indexes normalized. The paper describes the patient's clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment process, and prognosis, and reviews relevant literature, to improve clinicians' understanding of this rare disease.
