Pituitary stalk interruption syndrome(PSIS) typically manifests initially as short stature due to growth hormone deficiency(GHD). Untreated chronic GHD may induce metabolic disturbances, leading to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease with rapid progression to liver cirrhosis. Liver cirrhosis can subsequently cause hepatopulmonary syndrome, resulting in hypoxemia and dyspnea. This article reports a case of a young male presenting with short stature, dyspnea, liver cirrhosis, and hepatopulmonary syndrome, ultimately diagnosed with PSIS. Following recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) and other hormonal replacement therapies, the patient exhibited improvement in hepatic steatosis and fibrosis, with alleviation of dyspnea. Through analysis of this case, we provide clinical insights for diagnosing and managing cirrhosis and hepatopulmonary syndrome in such patients, highlighting that early diagnosis and timely initiation of rhGH replacement therapy can improve prognosis and quality of life.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of fuzuloparib for the treatment of ovarian epithelial cancer patients in the real world setting.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the baseline data of 4 620 ovarian cancer patients who had received fuzuloparib monotherapy or combination therapy. Another 224 ovarian cancer patients who were willing to receive fuzuloparib monotherapy or combination therapy were prospectively enrolled, and their baseline characteristics, drug effectiveness, and safety data were analyzed.Results:(1) Among the 4 620 patients in the retrospective cohort, the median age of patients was 60 years; tumor types: 89.8% (4 149/4 620) had ovarian cancer. Among patients with clearly documented information, the vast majority had a histological type of serous carcinoma (82.9%, 3 770/4 546) and International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging of Ⅲ-Ⅳ (90.9%, 1 537/1 691). (2) Among the 224 patients in the prospective cohort, the median age of patients was 57 years; tumor types: 83.9% (188/224) had ovarian cancer. Among patients with clearly documented records, the predominant pathologic type was serous carcinoma (91.9%, 193/210), and FIGO stage was Ⅲ-Ⅳ in 79.9% (139/174). (3) Among the 224 prospective patients: 84 patients received first-line fluzoparib maintenance therapy, 92 patients received fluzoparib maintenance therapy after platinum-sensitive recurrence, 23 patients received direct fluzoparib treatment after platinum-sensitive recurrence, 19 patients received direct fluzoparib treatment after platinum-resistant recurrence. The median follow-up durations were 8.5, 8.7, 7.9, and 6.7 months, respectively. The median durations of fluzoparib treatment were 6.7, 4.8, 3.1, and 1.9 months, respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) times were not reached during follow-up, 12.6 months, not reached during follow-up, and 4.8 months, respectively. The 1-year PFS rates were 84.1%, 55.0%, 69.8%, and 45.5%, respectively. The remaining 6 patients received other fluzoparib regimens. (4) Among the 224 patients in the prospective dataset, 205 had safety data recorded. Of these, 127 patients (62.0%, 127/205) experienced treatment-related adverse events, with common events including anemia (24.4%, 50/205), thrombocytopenia (21.0%, 43/205), and leukopenia (19.5%, 40/205). Among the 205 patients, 43 (21.0%, 43/205) experienced grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events, with common events including anemia (8.3%, 17/205) and thrombocytopenia (8.3%, 17/205).Conclusions:The effectiveness of fuzuloparib in clinical application is generally consistent with other drugs in the same class, with good safety.

BackgroundIn Sichuan Province, most healthcare institutions providing mental health services have adopted self-developed evaluation indicators for the quality of nursing care in psychiatric closed wards, lacking unified standards. This results in insufficient authority and homogeneity, which is unfavorable for the standardized assessment and continuous improvement of nursing quality. ObjectiveTo construct a standardized evaluation indicator system for nursing quality of psychiatric closed wards in Sichuan Province, so as to provide references for nursing quality management and assessment. MethodsBased on bio-psycho-social medical model and guided by "Structure-Process-Outcome" quality evaluation framework, preliminary evaluation indicators for nursing quality in psychiatric closed wards were developed through literature analysis, research team discussions and clinical experience. Through two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, the indicators were revised and finalized. ResultsThe response rates for two rounds of Delphi expert consultation questionnaire were 100%. The expert authority coefficients were 0.845 and 0.864, respectively, and the Kendall's coordination coefficients ranged from 0.119 to 0.210 (P<0.01). Ultimately, a nursing quality evaluation index system for psychiatric closed wards was established, comprising 3 first-level indicators, 9 second-level indicators and 46 third-level indicators. ConclusionThe nursing quality evaluation indicators for psychiatric closed wards constructed based on the Delphi method can provide references for nursing quality management and evaluation in such wards.

Objective To investigate the removal of metal artifacts caused by different metal implants in different parts of the human body using dual-energy CT and to select the best method for metal artifacts reduction.Methods Forty-three patients with metal implants underwent dual-energy CT scans.Reconstructed images were obtained to produce eight sets of imaging data:conventional image(CI),120 keV,140 keV,160 keV,180 keV,200 keV,Orthopedic metal artifact reduction algorithm(O-MAR),200 keV+O-MAR.The optimal spectral monoenergetic images was selected based on the trend of changes in artifact index(AI)values with different keV monoenergetic images and subjective evaluation.One-way ANOVA was used to analyze and compare objective image evaluation indi-cators and subjective evaluations of image quality among different groups.The intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC)was used to evaluate the consistency and reliability of subjective evaluations of image quality among different observers.Results The AI values of differ-ent keV monoenergetic images showed a decreasing trend with increasing keV,and the virtual monoenergetic images at the 200 keV level had the smallest AI value.There were statistically significant differences in objective indicators for the removal of high-density artifacts and low-density artifacts among the groups(P<0.05).Pairwise comparison showed statistical differences between CI and O-MAR,CI and O-MAR+200 keV,200 keV and O-MAR,200 keV and O-MAR+200 keV(P<0.05),with O-MAR+200 keV demon-strating the best objective indicators.The ICC for subjective evaluation among different observers was 0.97%,and the ICC within observers was 0.91%.There were statistically significant differences in subjective image scores among the groups(P<0.05),with the CI had the lowest score[(1.04±0.24)points]and the O-MAR+200 keV combination had the highest score[(4.57±0.78)points].Conclusion Dual-energy CT virtual monoenergetic 200 keV spectroscopy combined with O-MAR technique can be used as the best technique for removing metal implant artifacts and achieving better contrast in the surrounding soft tissue of prostheses.

Objective To investigate the effects of a disintegrin and metalloprotease domain 10(ADAM10)inhibitor on synaptic structure and blood-brain barrier(BBB)permeability in rats with autism-like behavior.Methods A total of 50 male offspring rats with prenatal exposure to valproic acid(VPA)to induce autism-like behavior were randomly divided into VPA group and ADAM 10 inhibitor,TAT-Pro-ADAM10(709-729)group(TAT-Pro group),with 25 rats in each group.And another 25 offspring male rats induced by normal saline during pregnancy served as control group(CON group).The TAT-Pro group was given intraperitoneal injection on postnatal day 20 with 3 nmol/g TAT-Pro-ADAM10(709-729),and equal volumes of normal saline were given to the CON and VPA groups.The changes of body mass and tail length of offspring rats were measured and recorded during modeling.Western blotting was performed to detect the protein levels of ADAM10,vascular endothelial cadherin(VE-Cad),Occludin,zonula occludens-1(ZO-1),post-synaptic density protein-95(PSD95),and synaptophysin(SYN)in the hippocampal tissue of the offspring rats in 24 h after administration.The expression of ZO-1 protein was further verified by immunofluorescence assay.Behavioral tests were conducted from postnatal day 24,including open field,grooming,three-chamber social interaction,and water maze tests.The density of dendritic spines in hippocampal tissue in the offspring rats on postnatal day 28 was detected by Golgi staining.Results Compared with the VPA group,the TAT-Pro group showed no significant changes in body weight and tail length,but significantly improved repetitive stereotyped behaviors,social skills and learning memory ability(P<0.05),reduced protein levels of ADAM10 and PSD95 in hippocampal tissues(P<0.05),and elevated levels of VE-cad and Occludin(P<0.05).The density of dendritic spines was significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the number of immature dendritic spines also decreased in the TAT-Pro group than the VPA group.Conclusion Inhibition of ADAM10 overexpression during the critical period of synaptic development can alleviate learning and memory dysfunctions in VPA-induced rats with autism-like behavior,and has a certain restorative effect on abnormal synaptic structures and blood-brain barrier permeability.
