Primary hyperparathyroidism is a disease with a large potential population. Some cases of primary hyperparathyroidism are non-primary, preventable and curable at early stage, requiring long-term follow-up after surgery. Therefore, all-round and full-cycle management are necessary for primary hyperparathyroidism, which involves an enhancing focus on etiological prevention, early detection, prompt diagnosis, timely intervention, multi-disciplinary standardized diagnosis and treatment, and postoperative scientific management. Meanwhile, implementing a "12+5+1" multidisciplinary joint diagnosis and treatment model, along with a two-way referral model, to achieve the transition from a disease-oriented diagnostic and treatment model to a patient-oriented, all-round and full-cycle interdisciplinary management model. This management can reduce the incidence and recurrence rate of primary hyperparathyroidism, and related osteoporosis or osteopenia, fractures, nephrolithiasis, metastatic vascular calcification, and systemic abnormal migratory calcium deposits, improve the overall quality of life and prognosis of patients.

The incidence of parathyroid hyperfunction is high and its clinical manifestations are diverse. Some patients develop chest tightness and palpitations as the main discomfort, which may be caused by the hypocalcemia and hypercalcemia related to negative calcium balance and parathyroid hyperfunction. We report a case of 53 years old male with parathyroid hyperfunction who was diagnosed with osteoporosis before and received conventional regular supplementation of vitamin D and calcium supplements. However, his condition worsened and he developed chest tightness and palpitation. After 1 month of sufficient supplementation of calcium, the symptoms of chest tightness and palpitation disappeared completely. Then we continued to provide the patients enough vitamin D and calcium supplementation actively. After 1 year of follow-up, the patient's condition was stable. His discomfort of chest tightness and palpitation never recurred, and all the bone metabolism indicators returned to normal.

Depression is a common mental illness in adolescents, and some patients do not respond well after medication, which may be partly related to vitamin D deficiency and insufficient calcium intake. This paper reports a 15-year-old patient with depression, whose condition was still unstable and the effect was not good despite routine use of antidepressant drugs and psychological intervention. After adequate supplementation of vitamin D and calcium, the patient's depression improved significantly, and the follow-up for 4 months, the condition was stable and did not recur.

Objective:To evaluate the significance of copy number variation (CNV) and metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the diagnosis of meningeal carcinomatosis (MC).Methods:Ten patients with MC diagnosed in the Department of Neurology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from March 2022 to June 2022 were consecutively enrolled in this study. The patients were diagnosed according to the criteria of the Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis of MC by the Chinese Society of Infectious Diseases and Cerebrospinal Fluid Cytology, and the diagnosis of MC was confirmed by CSF cytology. The control group included 10 patients who were diagnosed as autoimmune encephalitis or viral encephalitis. CSF mNGS and CNV analysis were performed simultaneously in all the patients.Results:Of the 10 patients with MC, 6 had lung adenocarcinoma, 4 had breast cancer. CSF mNGS and CNV analysis detected large CNV in 8 of 10 patients with MC, including 4 patients with breast cancer and 4 patients with lung cancer. The results of pathogenic microorganism analysis of CSF mNGS in all the patients were negative. Meanwhile, large CNV was not detected in the control group.Conclusions:CSF CNV can serve as a diagnostic marker for MC. The combination of mNGS and CNV analysis has demonstrated a high positive rate in the diagnosis of MC. The dual-omics analysis of pathogenic microorganisms and CNV has been proposed as a potential strategy to further expand the clinical utility of CSF mNGS in the realm of auxiliary diagnosis.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between the body composition and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) decline in physical examination population of different genders.Methods:Clinical data of the cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) and body composition analysis of 439 people who received physical examination in the Medical Examination Center of Peking University Third Hospital from May 2021 to September 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The general data, physical examination, biochemical parameters, body composition and CPET results were collected. The subjects were divided into normal group and decline group according to the percentage of peak oxygen uptake (VO 2peak) levels ≥ 85% or<85%. Multivariate logistic regression was applied to investigate the influencing factors of CRF decline in subjects of different genders. Results:Among men, total cholesterol and triglyceride in the decline group were significantly higher than those in the normal group [(5.097±0.890) vs (4.865±0.856) mmol/L, (1.778±1.200) vs (1.485±0.709) mmol/L], and the blood homocysteine (Hcy) and skeletal muscle index were significantly lower than those in the normal group [13.00 (11.30, 15.90) vs 13.80 (12.05, 17.10) μmol/L, (7.89±0.65) vs (8.08±0.64) kg/m 2] (all P<0.05). Among women, skeletal muscle index in the decline group was significantly lower than that in the normal group [(6.21±0.52) vs (6.53±0.56)kg/m 2], and percent body fat was significantly higher than that in the normal group [(32.83±4.92)% vs (31.21±4.55)%] (all P<0.05). The elevation of triglyceride level ( OR=1.487, 95% CI: 1.042-2.121) and visceral fat area ( OR=1.032, 95% CI: 1.014-1.051) were positively correlated with the decline of CRF in man, the decrease of skeletal muscle index ( OR=0.215, 95% CI: 0.106-0.435) and the increase of percent body fat ( OR=1.149, 95% CI: 1.060-1.245) were positively correlated with the decrease of CRF in women (all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is a correlation between body composition and CRF decline in physical examination population of different genders. Men should control visceral fat more effectively, and women should pay attention to increase muscle mass while reducing body fat, in order to improve CRF.
