Objective To preliminarily investigate the safety and efficacy of donor pancreas needle biopsy in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 7 cases undergoing donor pancreas biopsy were collected retrospectively. All cases underwent donor pancreas biopsy before or during simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation. Frozen section or paraffin sectioning techniques were used for tissue preparation, and hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining were performed to histologically evaluate the donor pancreas. The quality of donor pancreas was comprehensively assessed by combining histological findings with the donor's clinical data. Postoperative follow-up data of 5 simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant recipients were collected to summarize the safety of donor pancreas biopsy and the prognosis of transplant recipients. Results The 7 pancreas donors were aged 28 to 62 years, with a body mass index ranging from 20.76 to 27.68 kg/m2. Liver ultrasound indicated fatty liver in 3 cases, while pancreatic ultrasound did not reveal any significant abnormalities. Among them, biopsy was performed on 2 donors after completion of pancreatic procurement and processing, and the frozen section histology showed moderate acute pancreatitis changes (edema of acinar cells, necrosis and inflammatory cell infiltration). Combined with a serum amylase level elevated more than 3 times the upper limit of normal value, these two donor pancreases were finally discarded. The remaining 5 cases underwent biopsy immediately after pancreatic vascular anastomosis during simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation, and histological evaluation was performed on paraffin-embedded sections. No biopsy-related complications (such as bleeding, pancreatic fistula, etc.) occurred after transplantation. One recipient died of severe infection 2 months after transplantation, while the other 4 recipients were followed up for more than 5 years, with well-functioning transplant kidneys and pancreases. Conclusions Donor pancreas biopsy is relatively safe, and the risk of biopsy-related complications after transplantation is controllable. Comprehensive assessment of donor pancreas quality by combining histological evaluation with the donor's clinical indicators is conducive to improving the accuracy of donor pancreas selection and organ utilization.

Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion to systolic pulmonary artery pressure ratio(TAPSE/sPAP) in identifying precapillary pulmonary hypertension(pcPH) patients requiring repeat balloon pulmonary angioplasty(BPA) within 3 months after initial intervention, and to determine independent risk factors associated with postoperative reintervention.Methods:We retrospectively collected clinical data from 215 consecutive patients with pcPH undergoing BPA. After applying exclusion criteria, 200 patients were ultimately included in the analysis. The predictive value of the TAPSE/sPAP for short-term BPA reintervention was assessed using receiver operating characteristic( ROC) curve analysis and multivariable logistic regression. Internal validation was performed through bootstrap resampling with 1 000 iterations to evaluate model stability. Results:A risk model for echocardiography was constructed using multiple logistic regression, and the results showed that systolic pulmonary artery pressure(sPAP), peak tricuspid regurgitation velocity(TRV), tricuspid regurgitation pressure gradient(PGTR), and TAPSE/sPAP ratio were predictive factors for BPA surgery in patients with pulmonary hypertension within 3 months. Multivariate regression analysis suggests that the TAPSE/sPAP ratio is an independent influencing factor for BPA after 3 months( OR=0.023, P<0.05). The predicted area under the ROC curve( AUC) for BPA after 3 months is 0.62(95% CI: 0.530-0.648), P<0.01, which is better than other cardiac ultrasound indicators. At the same time, internal bootstrap method was used for internal self-validation, and the AUC of the internal self-validation set was 0.67. Conclusion:The TAPSE/sPAP ratio serves as an independent predictor for requiring repeat BPA within 3 months postoperatively in patients with pcPH.

OBJECTIVE:
To elucidate the clinical and genetic characteristics of familial cases with Glucose transporter type 1 deficiency syndrome (Glut1DS).
METHODS:
A survey of family history was conducted on children (proband) with Glut1DS who had visited Peking University First Hospital between November 2008 and April 2024 by focusing on the clinical manifestations of family members. Peripheral venous blood (2 mL) was collected from the pediatric patients and their parents. Genomic DNA was extracted and sequenced subsequently. Sanger sequencing was performed to validate the identified variant sites of the SLC2A1 gene in the probands and their family members. The pathogenicity of suspected variants was analyzed according to the 2015 American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) Standards and Guidelines for the Interpretation of Sequence Variants. The clinical features, auxiliary examinations, and mutational characteristics of family members with SLC2A1 variants were analyzed. This study has been approved by the Clinical Research Ethics Committee of Peking University First Hospital (Ethics No. 2021 Research 332).
RESULTS:
Among 87 cases with Glut1DS, 10 families with autosomal dominate inherited cases were identified, accounting for 11.0% of the cases. Of the 11 children, 8 were boys and 3 were girls. The onset of the disease had ranged from 3 months to 120 months (median 6 months), with 4 cases of early-onset classic type, 2 cases of late-onset classic type, and 5 cases of non-classic type. Six children had seizures, and 7 exhibited movement disorders. Seven children underwent developmental assessment, of which 3 had mild developmental delay, 2 were borderline, and 2 were normal. Nine children underwent lumbar puncture. The cerebrospinal fluid glucose levels ranged from 1.45 to 2.25 mmol/L (median 1.86 mmol/L), and the cerebrospinal fluid to blood glucose ratios ranged from 0.29 to 0.44 (median 0.35). Among the 8 fathers with SLC2A1 gene variants, 4 were asymptomatic, 2 developed paroxysmal exercise-induced movement disorders (PED) in childhood and adulthood, respectively. 1 had poor memory since childhood, 1 developed migraines during adolescence, and his sister was an asymptomatic carrier. The father with childhood-onset PED had a cerebrospinal fluid test with CSF glucose of 1.85 mmol/L. Of the 3 mothers with SLC2A1 gene mutations, 1 was an asymptomatic carrier; 2 developed PED in childhood and after the age of 20, respectively. The mother who developed PED in childhood also had psychomotor developmental delay. Genetic testing results revealed that among 10 families, 8 carried missense variants, 1 carried a nonsense variant, and 1 carried a small fragment insertion leading to a frameshift variant. Among the 11 cases, SLC2A1 gene variants in 8 children were inherited from their fathers, while in 3 cases, the variants were inherited from their mothers. The pathogenicity of the genetic variants was evaluated according to the Standards and Guidelines for the Interpretation of Sequence Variants published by the ACMG. Among the 8 variants identified in the 10 families, 4 were classified as pathogenic variants, 1 as likely pathogenic, and 3 as variants of uncertain significance (VUS). Four variant sites, including c.204_205insTCTC (p.V69fs), c.412G>C (p.G138R), c.431T>G (p.V144G), and c.875A>G (p.Y292C), were not previously reported in the literature. Among these, the latter three were categorized as VUS.
CONCLUSION
Familial Glut1DS account for 11.0% of the cases in China, with the majority of SLC2A1 gene variants inherited from the fathers, predominantly missense mutations, and with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. Probands tend to have earlier onset and more severe symptoms than their parents, who often present with mild or no symptoms.

Objective:
To understand the current situation and related factors of screening myopia among students in special education schools, so as to provide evidence for promoting the health level of this population.
Methods:
From November 2021 to December 2023, a total of 281 students from 6 special education schools in 5 districts of Tianjin were selected by cluster random sampling method for computer optometry visual acuity examination for non ciliary paralysis and questionnaire survey. Multiple Logistic regression was performed to analyze the influencing factors of screening myopia among special education students.
Results:
The screening myopia detection rate among these special education students in Tianjin was 27.0%, and the screening myopia detection rates of students with autism, developmental delays, and intellectual disabilities were 22.4%, 12.5%, and 33.0%, respectively. The degree of myopia increased with age ( χ 2 trend =22.65, P <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age(10-13 years old: OR =5.40, 14-17 years old: OR =8.40, 18-23 years old: OR =6.02), accommodation(non resident: OR =0.29), daily mobile phone usage ≥2 hours ( OR =2.37), and daily computer/tablet usage ≥2 hours ( OR =2.70) were the risk factors for screening myopia among special education students ( P <0.05).
Conclusions
The detection rate and degree of screening myopia increase with age in special education students. Prolonged screen time exposure is a primary risk factor for screening myopia in special education students. Effective myopia prevention and control strategies should be designed according to the characteristics of special education students.
