Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of children with anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (anti-HMGCR) antibody-mediated necrotizing myopathy, and to explore early identification and management strategies to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and treatment outcomes of 10 pediatric patients with anti-HMGCR antibody-mediated necrotizing myopathy admitted to the Department of Rheumatology, Children′s Hospital of Fudan University from December 2020 to December 2024. Statistical description was performed using SPSS 22.0.Results:Among the 10 patients, the male-to-female ratio was 1:4, the age of onset was (7.2±4.0) years, and the disease duration at diagnosis was (22.2±19.6) months. None had a history of statin exposure. Six patients presented with muscle weakness, and4 were diagnosed due to asymptomatic elevation of creatine kinase (CK); 4 had dermatomyositis-like rashes. All patients showed significantly elevated CK levels [median 3 291(1 969, 8 776)U/L] and underwent muscle biopsy. Histopathological findings revealed myofiber degeneration, necrosis, and regeneration in all cases, with inflammatory infiltration in 9 cases, MHC-Ⅰ positivity in all, and C5b-9 positivity in 9 cases. The median follow-up duration was (15.7±6.3) months. At the last follow-up, muscle strength was normal or nearly normal, and the CK median value had decreased to 977.5 (211.0, 3 536.0) U/L.Conclusion:For patients with suspected idiopathic inflammatory myopathy and significantly elevated CK, muscle-specific antibody testing-including anti-HMGCR-and muscle biopsy should be performed promptly regardless of the presence of skin rash, to ensure accurate diagnosis and guide treatment, thereby avoiding misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and independent risk factors of severe disease in patients with anti-nuclear matrix protein (NXP) 2 antibody-positive juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted, including 219 anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM patients admitted to 23 children′s hospitals across China from July 2011 to July 2023. Patients were classified into severe and non-severe groups based on classification criteria for severe dermatomyositis. Demographic characteristics, clinical manifestations, and laboratory parameters were compared between the 2 groups using independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, or χ2 test. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for severe disease. The receiver operating characteristic curve was employed to calculate optimal cut-off values. Results:Among the 219 patients, 108 were male and 111 were female, with an age at onset of 6.3 (3.5, 9.4) years. The severe group comprised 69 patients, and the non-severe group 150 patients. The severe group had significantly higher rates of fever, heliotrope rash, subcutaneous edema, periorbital edema, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity, as well as elevated levels of ferritin-to-albumin ratio (FAR), creatine kinase (CK), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis identified anti-Ro52 antibody positivity ( OR=13.26, 95% CI 1.37-128.29) and elevated FAR ( OR=1.90, 95% CI 1.09-2.31) as independent risk factors for severe anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM (both P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that a FAR cutoff value of 6.82 predicted severe disease with an area under the curve of 0.87 (95% CI 0.81-0.94, P<0.001), sensitivity of 0.85, and specificity of 0.70. All patients received glucocorticoid therapy, and the severe group received higher proportions of steroid pulse therapy, cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, intravenous immunoglobulin, biologics, and adjuvant treatments compared to the non-severe group (all P<0.05). In terms of outcomes, 2 patients (2.9%) in the severe group died (due to neurological involvement and intestinal perforation, respectively), while the remaining patients achieved complete clinical response or remission. All patients in the non-severe group achieved remission. Conclusions:The primary clinical features of anti-NXP2 antibody-positive JDM included fever, heliotrope rash, subcutaneous edema, periorbital edema, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity, and elevated levels of CK, AST, LDH, and FAR. Furthermore, anti-Ro52 antibody positivity and a FAR>6.82 were identified as independent risk factors.

Objectives:To investigate the predictive factors of stroke associated-pneumonia (SAP) in patients with acute stroke, develop nomogram and neural network prediction models and verify their predictive performance.Methods:Patients with acute stroke admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University and Zhenxiong County People's Hospital were included retrospectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent predictive factors of SAP, and develop nomogram and neural network prediction models. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) curves were used to validate and compare the predictive performances. Results:A total of 450 patients with acute stroke were enrolled, including 286 males (63.6%), aged 64.28±13.24 years; 344 patientss (76.4%) had ischemic stroke and 106 (23.6%) had hemorrhagic stroke; 128 patients (28.4%) experienced SAP. According to the random number method, they were divided into a modeling cohort ( n=300) and a validation cohort ( n=150). Multivariate logistic regression analysis in the modeling cohort showed that a higher baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, gastric tube placement, use of proton pump inhibitors, heart failure, and higher neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were the independent predictive factors of SAP. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve of the nomogram model for predicting SAP in the modeling cohort and validation cohort was 0.841 (95% confidence interval [ CI] 0.795-0.880) and 0.863 (95% CI 0.798-0.914), respectively. The sensitivity for predicting SAP were 75.00% and 70.45%, respectively, and the specificity was 81.94% and 92.45%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve of the neural network model for predicting SAP in the modeling cohort and validation cohort was 0.847 (95% CI 0.802-0.866) and 0.862 (95% CI 0.796-0.913), respectively. The sensitivity for predicting SAP were 76.19% and 72.73%, and the specificity was 79.17% and 89.62%, respectively. Conclusions:Higher NIHSS score, gastric tube placement, use of proton pump inhibitors, heart failure, and higher NLR are the independent risk factors for SAP in patients with acute stroke. The nomogram and neural network prediction model developed using the above risk factors have higher predictive value for SAP.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) at admission for stroke associated pneumonia (SAP) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:Patients with AIS admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2019 to June 2020 were retrospectively included. The demographic information, vascular risk factors, severity of stroke at admission, and NLR data of the patients were collected. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the independent correlation between NLR and SAP. The NLR was divided into quartile groups to further analyze the trend relationship between NLR and SAP. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of NLR for SAP. Results:A total of 316 patients with AIS were enrolled, including 200 males (63.29%) with an age of 63.86±13.78 years. The median baseline Nationanl Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 4 (interquartile range, 2-9), and the median NLR was 4.42 (interquartile range, 3.17-6.70). Ninety-three patients (29.43%) experienced SAP. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that NLR was an independent risk factor for SAP in patients with AIS (odds ratio 1.189, 95% confidence interval 1.077-1.313; P<0.001). Moreover, SAP risk increases with the increase of NLR ( Ptrend<0.001). Compared to the first quartile, the risk of SAP increased 9.991 times in the fourth quartile (95% confidence interval 2.912-34.279; P<0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of NLR for SAP prediction was 0.793 (95% confidence interval 0.737-0.850), with an optimal cutoff value of 5.475. The sensitivity and specificity for predicting SAP were 66.67% and 79.82%, respectively. Conclusion:NLR at admission is an independent risk factor for SAP in patients with AIS and has certain predictive value for SAP.
