Objective To investigate the clinical manifestations,molecular genetics and gonadal pathol-ogy characteristics of patients with disorders of sex development(DSD),and to summarize the clinical experi-ence of identifying rare diseases from common symptoms.Methods The clinical data of 416 patients with DSD diagnosed and treated in the multidisciplinary center of DSD of Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Cen-ter from May 2018 to August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,summarized and discussed.Results Accord-ing to chromosome karyotype,416 cases of DSD were classified into three types:92 cases(22.1％)of abnormal sex chromosome karyotype,285 cases(68.5％)of 46,XY karyotype and 39 cases(9.4％)of 46,XX karyotype.Among the 92 patients with abnormal sex chromosome karyotype,59 cases were raised as males,18 cases(30.5％)complained of short penis with hypospadias and cryptorchidism.The most common karyotype was 45,X/46,XY(58 cases,63.0％).Among the 285 patients with 46,XY karyotype,238 cases were raised as males,and 63 cases(26.5％)complained of short penis and hypospadias;47 cases were raised as females,and 13 ca-ses(27.7％)complained of inguinal mass.A total of 216 patients with 46,XY karyotype were subjected to whole exome gene detection,and 155 cases(71.8％)were found to have molecular pathogenesis with the clinical phe-notype.Among the 39 patients with 46,XX karyotype,19 cases were raised as males,and 8 cases(42.1％)com-plained of short penis and hypospadias.In the 18 cases of gonad biopsy,17 cases showed testicular tissue in go-nads.Whole exome sequencing was performed in 14 cases.NR5A1 gene heterozygous mutation,SRY gene muta-tion and SOX3 gene mutation were found in 2 cases,respectively(14.3％).Twenty cases were raised as females,and 14 cases(70.0％)complained of clitoral hypertrophy.Gonad biopsy was performed in 8 cases,with 7 cases of ovotestis(87.5％)and 1 case of NR5A1 gene heterozygous mutation(14.3％).Conclusions The etiologies of DSD are complex and diverse,and the clinical manifestations are various,which can be manifested as hypospa-dias,micropenis,cryptorchidism and other common symptoms of the urinary system.Different etiologies have dif-ferent treatment options.Therefore,chromosome karyotype,molecular genetic testing and gonadal pathology can be used to clarify the cause of disease,especially for rare diseases,improve the detection rate,reduce the rate of missed diagnosis,and ensure reasonable treatment,especially sex selection.

Objective To compare the performances of 3D MERGE sequence and 3D SPACE STIR sequence in detecting lumbar disc herniation(LDH).Methods The clinical data and MRI data of 135 LDH patients admitted between January 2020 and November 2022 were analyzed retrospectively.All patients were examined using conventional MRI,3D MERGE sequence and 3D SPACE STIR sequence.The consistency of 3D MERGE sequence and 3D SPACE STIR sequence in measuring the diameter of nerve root was analyzed,and the image quality parameters[signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)]and image definition score of the two sequences were evaluated.Results There were no statistically significant differences in L3-S1 nerve root diameters measured by 3D MERGE sequence and 3D SPACE STIR sequence(P＞0.05),and the diameters of L3,L4,L5 and S1 measured by the two sequences showed high correlations(r=0.957,0.986,0.975,0.972,P＜0.05).Compared with 3D SPACE STIR sequence,3D MERGE sequence had higher SNR and CNR,scored better on image definition,and displayed nerve root more clearly(P＜0.05).Conclusion 3D MERGE sequence and 3D SPACE STIR sequence have high consistency in the measurement of LDH nerve root diameter.3D MERGE sequence can display the anatomical morphology of nerve root more clearly as compared with 3D SPACE STIR sequence,and the former one has higher image quality.

Objective:To explore the value of adenosine loaded 99Tc m-MIBI single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) in evaluating the therapeutic effect of nicorandil on coronary microvascular angina (CMVA). Methods:Sixty eight patients diagnosed with CMVA in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2021 to March 2022 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and a nicorandil group, with 34 patients in each group, using a random number table method. The control group received isosorbide mononitrate in addition to conventional treatment, while the nicorandil group received nicorandil in addition to conventional treatment. Both groups were treated continuously for 3 months. All patients underwent adenosine loading 99Tc m-MIBI SPECT before and after treatment to measure the degree of myocardial perfusion defect (SDS), myocardial perfusion defect area (SRS), and degree of improvement of myocardial perfusion defect (SIS). Clinical symptoms, electrocardiogram changes, myocardial enzyme indicators [cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)], hemodynamic parameters [systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO), peripheral resistance (TPR), left ventricular work index (LVWI), and myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO 2)] were evaluated. Results:After treatment, the SDS and SRS of the nicorandil group were significantly lower than those of the control group ( P<0.01), and the SIS was significantly higher than that of the control group (all P<0.01); The improvement of abnormal myocardial perfusion imaging was significantly better than that of the control group (χ 2=4.976, P<0.05); the frequency, duration, and severity of angina attacks, Canadian Heart Association (CCS) grading, and incidence of ischemic changes on electrocardiogram were all lower than those of the control group ( P<0.01); The levels of serum cTnI, CK-MB, and LDH were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.01); SBP, DBP, HR, LVWI, and MVO 2 were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.01), while SV and CO were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.01). Conclusions:Adenosine loaded 99Tc m-MIBI SPECT can effectively evaluate the therapeutic effect of nicorandil on CMVA, and nicorandil can improve myocardial perfusion defects and clinical manifestations in CMVA patients.
