Kounis syndrome is an acute coronary syndrome triggered by an allergic reaction, which is clinically rare and frequently subject to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis. This article presents a case report of a 70-year-old male patient who developed a rash, pruritus, and chest pain following colon polyp resection. Coronary angiography revealed occlusion of the left anterior descending artery, and blood flow was restored after stent implantation. However, the patient experienced recurrent symptoms accompanied by loss of consciousness. Drug skin tests confirmed positive reactions to chlorhexidine and fondaparinux sodium, leading to a diagnosis of type Ⅱ Kounis syndrome. By avoiding allergenic drugs and combining antihistamines with symptomatic treatment to correct myocardial ischemia, the patient′s clinical symptoms significantly improved, and he eventually recovered and was discharged from the hospital. This case underscores the importance of maintaining vigilance for this syndrome in patients with allergies accompanied by chest pain and promptly identifying and avoiding allergens.

Objective:To evaluate the value of noninvasive assessment of the 13C-methacetin breath test (13C-MBT) based on infrared isotope spectrometry for liver function reserve in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Methods:A total of 120 NAFLD patients met the diagnostic criteria,who admitted to Department of Liver Diseases of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2023 to January 2024,were prospectively selected. Patients were divided into three groups based on liver stiffness measurement (LSM) of FibroTouch:mild fibrosis group (LSM<7.0 kPa,n=40),moderate fibrosis group (7.0≤LSM<9.5 kPa) and severe fibrosis group (LSM≥9.5 kPa,n=40). Meanwhile,40 healthy subjects were selected as a healthy control group. All subjects underwent 13C-MBT and conventional liver function tests. The differences of 13C-MBT parameters and liver function indicators among various groups were compared,and the correlations between 13C-MBT parameters and the degree of liver fibrosis,and between liver function indexes and the degree of liver fibrosis were analyzed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the judgment ability of 13C-MBT parameters to the degree of liver fibrosis. Results:The 13C-MBT parameters in NAFLD patients were lower than those in healthy control group,and the differences were statistically significant (F=27.413,28.635,29.851,P<0.05). With the aggravation of liver fibrosis,13C-MBT parameters in NAFLD patients gradually decreased. The 13C-MBT parameters of severe fibrosis group were significantly lower than those in the mild and moderate fibrosis groups,with statistically significant differences (t=12.331,13.020,14.232,22.033,21.032,29.332,P<0.05),respectively. The 13C-MBT parameters were positively correlated with liver function indicators,and were negatively correlated with LSM,and the absolute values of the correlation coefficients were>0.5,all of them showed statistically significant differences (r=0.375,-0.875,P<0.05). The 13C-MBT parameters had higher sensitivity and specificity in judging the degree of liver fibrosis. Taking MVmax40 as an example,when the limit value was 9.5 kPa,the sensitivity was 86.3%,and the specificity was 83.8%,and the accuracy was 85.0%,and the area under curve (AUC) was 0.913. Conclusion:13C-MBT based on infrared isotope spectrometry is a non-invasive,safe,rapid and accurate detection method,which can reflect the liver function reserve and liver fibrosis degree of NAFLD patients,and has important clinical value for the diagnosis and treatment of NAFLD.

Objective To analyze the efficacy of autologous tissue repair for rectocele through the perineal approach in treating constipation and fecal incontinence in patients.Methods From January 2021 to November 2022,23 female patients with symptomatic rectal protrusion were treated with perineal autologous tissue repair.Preoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively,the Cleveland Clinic Constipation Score(CCCS),Cleveland Clinic Incontinence Score(CCIS),and Patient Assessment of Constipation Quality of Life(PAC-QOL)questionnaires were used to assess postoperative outcomes and quality of life.Results Among the 23 patients,with a median follow-up time of 12.6 months,CCCS decreased from 17.09±1.68 to 3.96±2.08(P<0.05);CCIS decreased from 1.52±4.15 to 0.52±1.41(P>0.05);PAC-QOL:physical discomfort decreased from 13.00±1.51 to 4.74±1.98;psychological discomfort decreased from 20.96±3.27 to 5.74±2.67;concern and anxiety decreased from 26.13±4.37 to 8.78±3.14;satisfaction decreased from 15.39±2.35 to 4.60±1.59(P<0.05).All patients showed significant improvement in constipation and incontinence symptoms postoperatively,with no serious postoperative complications and a marked improvement in postoperative quality of life.Conclusion Rectocele repair with perineal approach using autologous tissue is an effective and safe method,avoiding potential potential complications associated with grafts.
