Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of adult patients with autoimmune disease-associated hemophagocytic syndrome (AID-HPS) and enhance clinical recognition of this condition.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 85 adult AID-HPS patients admitted to the department of rheumatology and immunology at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2012 to December 2020. Clinical data included demographics, predisposing factors, manifestations, laboratory/imaging findings, treatments, and outcomes. Patients were stratified into three groups based on underlying AIDs: adult-onset Still′s disease with HPS (AOSD-HPS) group, systemic lupus erythematosus with HPS (SLE-HPS) group, and other AID with HPS (other AID-HPS) group. Comparative analyses were conducted to identify intergroup differences. Continuous variables were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, Welch′s test, or Kruskal-Wallis′s test based on data distribution and homogeneity of variance. Categorical variables (rates and proportions) were compared with the chi-square test or Fisher-Freeman-Halton exact test according to expected cell frequencies.Results:Among 85 patients, 67 were female. Underlying AIDs included AOSD (32 cases, 37.6%), SLE (32 cases, 37.6%), and other AIDs (21 cases, 24.7%). Infections (≥1 type) were identified in 54 patients (63.5%), predominantly viral (48 cases, 56.5%), including cytomegalovirus (CMV) (40 cases), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) (11 cases), and 6 cases were coinfected with both CMV and EBV. All patients presented with fever; hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, and lymphadenopathy were observed in 39 (45.9%), 59 (69.4%), and 70 (82.4%) cases, respectively. Additional manifestations included arthralgia (63 cases, 74.1%) and rash (65 cases, 76.5%). Pancytopenia in 31 cases (36.5%) and bicytopenia in 29 cases (34.1%). Liver dysfunction was noted in 79 cases (92.9%). Elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (83 cases, 97.6%), elevated triglyceride (TG) (76 cases, 89.4%), decreased fibrinogen (Fbg) (55 cases, 64.7%), and elevated serum ferritin (SF) (84 cases, 98.8%) were common. Elevated soluble CD25(sCD25) (53cases) and reduced NK cell activity (49 cases) were observed. Bone marrow examination revealed hemophagocytosis in 49 cases. There were statistically significant differences in age( F=3.763, P=0.031), lymphadenopathy( χ2=7.098, P=0.029), rash( χ2=12.816, P=0.002), reductions in WBC( H=22.284, P<0.001)、NEU( H=18.882, P<0.001)、PLT( H=15.127, P=0.001), and elevations in LDH( H=7.842; P=0.020)、TG( H=6.177, P=0.046)、CRP( H=6.915, P=0.032)、SF( H=9.661, P=0.008)、sCD25( χ2=5.154, P=0.035) among the three groups: (1) The SLE-HPS group was significantly younger [(28.1 ± 10.4) years) than the other AID-HPS group [(39.5 ± 17.3) years, P=0.028]. (2) The AOSD-HPS group had higher incidence rates of lymphadenopathy (93.8%) and rash (93.8%) than the SLE-HPS group (68.8% and 56.3%, respectively), (lymphadenopathy: χ2=7.098, P=0.029; rash: χ2=12.816, P=0.002). (3) ① WBC in the SLE-HPS group [1.62 (1.18, 2.92) ×10 9/L] were significantly lower than those in the AOSD-HPS group [5.66 (2.75, 11.57)×10 9/L] and the other AID-HPS group [6.05 (2.49, 14.55)×10 9/L] ( Z=-4.032, P<0.001; Z=3.993, P<0.001). ② NEU in the SLE-HPS group [1.10 (0.60, 1.93)×10 9/L] were markedly reduced compared to the AOSD-HPS group [3.73 (1.54, 9.04)×10 9/L] and the other AID-HPS group [2.23 (1.43, 11.57)×10 9/L] ( Z=-3.859, P<0.001; Z=3.506, P=0.001). ③ PLT in the SLE-HPS group [59.50 (28.50, 81.00)×10 9/L] were significantly lower than those in the AOSD-HPS group [109.00 (65.75, 232.00)×10 9/L] and the other AID-HPS group [150.00 (55.00, 221.00)×10 9/L] ( Z=-3.421, P=0.002; Z=3.179, P=0.004). (4) LDH levels in the AOSD-HPS group [1 178 (645, 1 875) U/L] were significantly higher than those in the other AID-HPS group [598 (410, 771) U/L] ( Z=2.795, P=0.016). (5) TG levels in the SLE-HPS group [3.61 (2.46, 6.09) mmol/L] were significantly higher than those in the other AID-HPS group [2.68 (1.71, 3.30)mmol/L] ( Z=2.402, P=0.049). (6) CRP and SF levels in the AOSD-HPS group [79.20 (28.02, 179.53)mg/L and 30 225 (13 494, 53 598)μg/L, respectively] were significantly higher than those in the SLE-HPS group [26.05 (9.41, 83.31)mg/L and 9 862 (4 467, 22 315) μg/L, respectively] ( Z=2.547, P=0.033; Z=3.069, P=0.006 ). (7) The incidence rates with elevated sCD25 in the AOSD-HPS group (100.0%) was significantly higher than that in the other AID-HPS group (76.9%), ( χ2=5.154, P=0.035). After treatment, 83 patients improved, while 2 deaths occurred in the other AID-HPS group. Conclusion:Adult AID-HPS predominantly affects young to middle-aged females, with SLE and AOSD being the most common underlying AIDs. The condition manifests with severe clinical features, frequently triggered by viral infections (particularly CMV and EBV). Distinct differences in clinical and laboratory profiles exist among AID-HPS subtypes. Early recognition and aggressive treatment are critical for improving prognosis.

Objective To investigate the renal function recovery and perioperative risk factors for chronic kidney disease in patients after acute Stanford type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) repair. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on patients who underwent ATAAD repair at the Xiamen Cardiovascular Hospital, Xiamen University from 2020 to 2021, and their clinical data were analyzed. Results A total of 255 patients were included, with 200 males and 55 females, and an average age of (52.80±12.46) years. The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) after ATAAD repair was 43.9%. Dissection involving the renal artery [OR=2.144, 95%CI (1.234, 3.765), P=0.007], intraoperative urine output [OR=0.761, 95%CI (0.625, 0.911), P=0.004], and intraoperative red blood cell transfusion [OR=1.288, 95%CI (1.088, 1.543), P=0.004] were significantly associated with early AKI after ATAAD repair. Long-term renal function follow-up data were available for 232 patients, among whom 40 (17.2%) patients developed chronic kidney disease (CKD). Independent predictors for CKD included lower body mass index [OR=0.827, 95%CI (0.723, 0.931), P=0.003], preoperative cardiac tamponade [OR=5.344, 95%CI (1.65, 17.958), P=0.005], preoperative renal hypoperfusion syndrome [OR=12.629, 95%CI (5.003, 35.373), P<0.001], postoperative peak serum creatinine time>3 d [OR=7.566, 95%CI (2.799, 22.731), P<0.001], and AKI grade [grade 1: OR=4.418, 95%CI (1.339, 15.361), P=0.016; grade 2: OR=8.345, 95%CI (1.762, 40.499), P=0.007; grade 3: OR=9.463, 95%CI (2.602, 37.693), P<0.001]. Conclusion AKI related to ATAAD repair can recover in the early postoperative period, but both the duration and severity of AKI will affect long-term renal function. In addition, patients' nutritional status, preoperative cardiac tamponade, and renal hypoperfusion syndrome are also independent risk factors for long-term renal dysfunction.

This article summarizes the experience of providing remote nursing care for a pediatric patient with severe burns using augmented reality(AR)technology.Key nursing points include:to establish a remote management team to enhance multidisciplinary collaboration;to conduct remote nursing ward rounds to provide real-time guidance for clinical nursing practice;to remotely guide PICC(Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter)insertions and conduct precise fluid management;to remotely assess ward environments and provide guidance on disinfection and isolation measures;to alleviate pediatric pain through comprehensive management measures.After meticulous care and treatment,the patient's condition stabilized after 23 days,and the patient was transferred to a specialized hospital for continued treatment requiring skin grafting.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of spinocerebellar ataxia 12(SCA12).Methods The clinical data of a family with SC A1 2 diagnosed by gene detection were retrospectively analyzed,and the literature was reviewed.Results Three patients in this family were diagnosed as SCA12.Among them,2 patients with clinical symptoms were＞45 years old,the clinical symptoms were head tremor,upper limb tremor,voice tremor,dystonia and ataxia.Another one case was 31 years old,did not have relevant clinical manifestations yet.Cranial MRI showed that cerebral cortex atrophy was more serious than cerebellar atrophy in 2 patients.Conclusion SCA12 typically presents with upper limb tremor,with head tremor being less common,as the disease progresses,symptoms such as ataxia,dystonia,Parkinsonism,and cognitive impairment may develop,due to its highly heterogeneous clinical features,genetic testing can be helpful for diagnosis.

Objective:To explore the impact of a comprehensive intervention program that integrates transitional care with personalized discharge preparation services on discharge preparedness on the growth, development, and motor development in premature infants, providing guidance and reference for clinical practice.Methods:The 90 pairs of premature infants and their main caregivers who were treated in the neonatal department, Children ′s Hospital, Quanzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital were studied from February 2023 to February 2024 by randomized control method. Used the table of random numbers, they were divided into the control group and the observation group, with 45 pairs in each group. The control group routinely administered care, while the observation group was implemented a transitional care combined with personalized discharge preparation services. The discharge preparedness, growth and motor development, and the disease uncertainty of caregivers were observed between the 2 groups. Results:There were 27 males and 18 females of the 45 preterm infants,with gestational age of 30.86 (29.36, 31.50) weeks in the control group, 24 males and 21 females with gestational age of 30.29(29.00, 31.07) weeks in the observation group. The main caregiver identities 43 were mothers and 2 were other identities in the control group, 42 were mothers and 3 were other identities in the observation group, with them being 31.00(28.00, 35.00) years old. There were 97.78% (44 /45) caregivers who thought the child was ready to go home in the observation group, while the control group were 84.44% (38 /45), these differences were statistically significant ( χ2=4.88, P<0.05). The total score of discharge readiness in the observation group were 240.00(237.00, 242.50) points, higher than in the control group 226.00(219.00, 229.50) points, these differences were statistically significant ( Z=-6.23, P<0.05). The head circumference and body weight of the observation group were (34.82 ± 1.14) cm and (3.60 ± 0.55) kg, while the control group were (34.25 ± 1.22) cm and (3.35 ± 0.53) kg, there were statistically significant between the two groups ( t=-2.29, -2.22, all P<0.05). The Test of Infant Motor Performance score in the observation group was 50.00(46.00, 52.00) points, while the control group was 45.00(42.00, 48.00) points, there were statistically significant between the two groups ( Z=-3.65, P<0.05). The total score of disease uncertainty in the observation was 52.00(45.50, 60.00) points, while the control group was 61.00(58.50, 65.00) points, there was statistically significant between the two groups ( Z=-4.62, P<0.05). Conclusions:The discharge preparedness of the caregivers of preterm infants was improved because of the use of transitional care combined with personalized discharge preparation services, and the growth and motor development of preterm infants were promoted, and the uncertainty of the family caregivers of preterm infants about the disease was reduced.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of adult patients with autoimmune disease-associated hemophagocytic syndrome (AID-HPS) and enhance clinical recognition of this condition.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 85 adult AID-HPS patients admitted to the department of rheumatology and immunology at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2012 to December 2020. Clinical data included demographics, predisposing factors, manifestations, laboratory/imaging findings, treatments, and outcomes. Patients were stratified into three groups based on underlying AIDs: adult-onset Still′s disease with HPS (AOSD-HPS) group, systemic lupus erythematosus with HPS (SLE-HPS) group, and other AID with HPS (other AID-HPS) group. Comparative analyses were conducted to identify intergroup differences. Continuous variables were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, Welch′s test, or Kruskal-Wallis′s test based on data distribution and homogeneity of variance. Categorical variables (rates and proportions) were compared with the chi-square test or Fisher-Freeman-Halton exact test according to expected cell frequencies.Results:Among 85 patients, 67 were female. Underlying AIDs included AOSD (32 cases, 37.6%), SLE (32 cases, 37.6%), and other AIDs (21 cases, 24.7%). Infections (≥1 type) were identified in 54 patients (63.5%), predominantly viral (48 cases, 56.5%), including cytomegalovirus (CMV) (40 cases), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) (11 cases), and 6 cases were coinfected with both CMV and EBV. All patients presented with fever; hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, and lymphadenopathy were observed in 39 (45.9%), 59 (69.4%), and 70 (82.4%) cases, respectively. Additional manifestations included arthralgia (63 cases, 74.1%) and rash (65 cases, 76.5%). Pancytopenia in 31 cases (36.5%) and bicytopenia in 29 cases (34.1%). Liver dysfunction was noted in 79 cases (92.9%). Elevated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (83 cases, 97.6%), elevated triglyceride (TG) (76 cases, 89.4%), decreased fibrinogen (Fbg) (55 cases, 64.7%), and elevated serum ferritin (SF) (84 cases, 98.8%) were common. Elevated soluble CD25(sCD25) (53cases) and reduced NK cell activity (49 cases) were observed. Bone marrow examination revealed hemophagocytosis in 49 cases. There were statistically significant differences in age( F=3.763, P=0.031), lymphadenopathy( χ2=7.098, P=0.029), rash( χ2=12.816, P=0.002), reductions in WBC( H=22.284, P<0.001)、NEU( H=18.882, P<0.001)、PLT( H=15.127, P=0.001), and elevations in LDH( H=7.842; P=0.020)、TG( H=6.177, P=0.046)、CRP( H=6.915, P=0.032)、SF( H=9.661, P=0.008)、sCD25( χ2=5.154, P=0.035) among the three groups: (1) The SLE-HPS group was significantly younger [(28.1 ± 10.4) years) than the other AID-HPS group [(39.5 ± 17.3) years, P=0.028]. (2) The AOSD-HPS group had higher incidence rates of lymphadenopathy (93.8%) and rash (93.8%) than the SLE-HPS group (68.8% and 56.3%, respectively), (lymphadenopathy: χ2=7.098, P=0.029; rash: χ2=12.816, P=0.002). (3) ① WBC in the SLE-HPS group [1.62 (1.18, 2.92) ×10 9/L] were significantly lower than those in the AOSD-HPS group [5.66 (2.75, 11.57)×10 9/L] and the other AID-HPS group [6.05 (2.49, 14.55)×10 9/L] ( Z=-4.032, P<0.001; Z=3.993, P<0.001). ② NEU in the SLE-HPS group [1.10 (0.60, 1.93)×10 9/L] were markedly reduced compared to the AOSD-HPS group [3.73 (1.54, 9.04)×10 9/L] and the other AID-HPS group [2.23 (1.43, 11.57)×10 9/L] ( Z=-3.859, P<0.001; Z=3.506, P=0.001). ③ PLT in the SLE-HPS group [59.50 (28.50, 81.00)×10 9/L] were significantly lower than those in the AOSD-HPS group [109.00 (65.75, 232.00)×10 9/L] and the other AID-HPS group [150.00 (55.00, 221.00)×10 9/L] ( Z=-3.421, P=0.002; Z=3.179, P=0.004). (4) LDH levels in the AOSD-HPS group [1 178 (645, 1 875) U/L] were significantly higher than those in the other AID-HPS group [598 (410, 771) U/L] ( Z=2.795, P=0.016). (5) TG levels in the SLE-HPS group [3.61 (2.46, 6.09) mmol/L] were significantly higher than those in the other AID-HPS group [2.68 (1.71, 3.30)mmol/L] ( Z=2.402, P=0.049). (6) CRP and SF levels in the AOSD-HPS group [79.20 (28.02, 179.53)mg/L and 30 225 (13 494, 53 598)μg/L, respectively] were significantly higher than those in the SLE-HPS group [26.05 (9.41, 83.31)mg/L and 9 862 (4 467, 22 315) μg/L, respectively] ( Z=2.547, P=0.033; Z=3.069, P=0.006 ). (7) The incidence rates with elevated sCD25 in the AOSD-HPS group (100.0%) was significantly higher than that in the other AID-HPS group (76.9%), ( χ2=5.154, P=0.035). After treatment, 83 patients improved, while 2 deaths occurred in the other AID-HPS group. Conclusion:Adult AID-HPS predominantly affects young to middle-aged females, with SLE and AOSD being the most common underlying AIDs. The condition manifests with severe clinical features, frequently triggered by viral infections (particularly CMV and EBV). Distinct differences in clinical and laboratory profiles exist among AID-HPS subtypes. Early recognition and aggressive treatment are critical for improving prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the therapeutic effect and safety of simultaneous integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy for lung cancer brain metastases.Methods:A total of 300 patients with lung cancer brain metastases admitted to the Department of Oncology, Qingdao Municipal Hospital from March 2021 to March 2023 were selected as the study objects. The patients were divided into control group ( n=150) and study group ( n=150) by random number table method. The control group received sequential three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy, while the study group received simultaneous integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy. The short-term and medium-term efficacy, target dose, and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results:The short-term and medium-term total effective rates of the study group were 73.33% (110/150) and 88.67% (133/150), respectively, which were higher than those of the control group [51.33% (77/150) and 71.33% (107/150) ] ( χ2=15.46, P<0.001; χ2=14.08, P<0.001). The D min in gross tumor planning target volume and whole brain clinical planning target volume of the study group were (23.78±1.11) and (58.46±0.55) Gy, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group [ (16.67±1.08) and (53.44±0.74) Gy], with statistically significant differences ( t=56.22, P<0.001; t=66.68, P<0.001). The D mean in gross tumor planning target volume and whole brain clinical planning target volume of the study group were (44.12±0.87) and (62.19±0.57) Gy, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group [ (37.55±0.89) and (57.78±0.82) Gy], with statistically significant differences ( t=64.65, P<0.001; t=54.08, P<0.001). The total incidence of adverse reactions was 30.67% (46/150) in the study group and 36.67% (55/150) in the control group, with no significantly significant difference ( χ2=1.20, P=0.271) . Conclusion:Compared with sequential three-dimensional conformal radiotherapy, simultaneous integrated boost intensity-modulated radiotherapy has better short-term and medium-term efficacy in patients with lung cancer brain metastases. Target dose can be increased without increasing adverse reactions.
