Purpose: Persistent hypercalcemia after parathyroidectomy (PTx) remains a significant concern in patients with tertiary hyperparathyroidism (THPT) following kidney transplant (KT). Complete resection of hyperfunctioning glands is challenging due to ectopic or intrathyroidal glands. This study evaluated whether intraoperative parathyroid hormone (ioPTH) monitoring during PTx in KT patients with THPT reduces the surgical failure rate. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 111 patients with THPT who underwent PTx at a single tertiary center. Patients were divided into 2 groups: those without ioPTH monitoring (n=98) and those with ioPTH monitoring (n=13). Surgical procedures included less than subtotal, subtotal, or total PTx with autotransplantation. Surgical failure was defined as persistent hypercalcemia (serum calcium ≥10.3 mg/dL and intact parathyroid hormone [PTH] >65 pg/mL) on postoperative day 1 (POD1) or at ≥6 months postoperatively. Results: The ioPTH group demonstrated a significantly lower mean PTH level on POD1 (21±15.3 pg/mL vs. 39±39 pg/mL; P=0.006). Although not statistically significant, the ioPTH group showed a higher biochemical cure rate at 3 months (53.8% vs. 30.6%) and no cases of persistent hyperparathyroidism, compared to 15.3% in the non-ioPTH group.Despite adequate intraoperative PTH reduction, some patients in both groups exhibited isolated PTH elevation without hypercalcemia. Conclusion Although ioPTH monitoring did not significantly reduce the surgical failure rate in PTx for THPT, the use of ioPTH may meaningfully improve surgical completeness and reduce the risk of persistent or recurrent hyperparathyroidism, suggesting its substantial potential value as an intraoperative.

ObjectiveMigraine is a leading neurological disorder and the fourth most common cause of years lived with disability worldwide, affecting nearly 116 million individuals. Although pharmacological treatments are available, their efficacy is often limited by side effects and variable response rates. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) offers a safe, non-invasive alternative for migraine management. However, the neurophysiological mechanisms, particularly how rTMS modulates local cortical excitability and distributed pain-related circuits, remain poorly understood. Elucidating these mechanisms is essential for optimizing treatment protocols and improving clinical outcomes. MethodsThis study employed concurrent transcranial magnetic stimulation and electroencephalography (TMS-EEG) to investigate neuroplastic and neurocircuitry mechanisms of DLPFC-rTMS in migraine. Study 1 compared 30 migraineurs and 28 healthy controls to identify abnormalities in TMS-evoked potentials (TEPs) and significant current density (SCD) within sensory-discriminative regions including the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) and posterior insula (pINS), cognitive-affective regions including the anterior insula (aINS) and midcingulate cortex (MCC), and a descending modulatory region, the periaqueductal gray (PAG). Study 2 used a single-blind, crossover, sham-controlled design in 34 healthy participants. Each participant received both active (10 Hz, 80% RMT, 1 500 pulses) and sham DLPFC-rTMS in counterbalanced order. TMS-EEG and cold pain tolerance were assessed before and after each session. ResultsIn Study 1, migraineurs showed a significantly less negative N120 amplitude compared to healthy controls (P=0.027, Cohen’s d=0.60), indicating local intracortical disinhibition. No group differences were observed for N40, P60, or P180 components. At the source level, migraineurs exhibited significantly higher SCD in the S1, pINS, aINS, and MCC (allQ<0.05), but not in the ventroposterior thalamus (vpTHAL), mediodorsal thalamus (mdTHAL), or PAG. In Study 2, active rTMS significantly reduced SCD from pre- to post-stimulation in the S1, aINS, and MCC (all Q<0.05). Sham stimulation also reduced SCD in the S1 (Q<0.05) but not in the aINS or MCC. Although no significant group-level analgesic effect was observed between active and sham conditions (P=0.107), correlation analyses revealed that greater SCD reductions in the S1 and MCC were significantly associated with higher post-rTMS pain tolerance (R=-0.487 and -0.495, both Q<0.01) and larger improvements in pain tolerance(R=-0.487 and -0.451, both Q<0.05). No such correlations were found following sham stimulation, suggesting that the behavioural relevance of neural changes is specific to active rTMS. ConclusionThis study provides novel evidence that migraineurs exhibit both local neuroplastic abnormalities (reduced N120 amplitude) and hyperactivity in key pain-processing regions (S1, pINS, aINS, MCC). A single session of DLPFC-rTMS reduced hyperactivity in the aINS, MCC, and S1. Notably, greater reductions in the S1 and MCC were associated with improved pain tolerance. These findings identify distinct cortical circuitries, particularly within the cognitive-affective pain network, that may serve as potential biomarkers for optimizing rTMS treatment in migraine and other chronic pain conditions. Future studies should validate these results in patient populations experiencing spontaneous migraine attacks and explore multi-session or accelerated rTMS protocols.

Objective To summarize the perioperative nursing experience for patients undergoing high-risk complex percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with the support of the percutaneous transvalvular left-ventricular assist system(SynFlow 3.0),and to explore the role of nursing interventions in improving procedural success and promoting patient recovery.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 26 patients who underwent SynFlow 3.0-assisted high-risk complex PCI in Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University between Aug 2022 and Jul 2024.Stage-specific comprehensive nursing interventions were implemented throughout the perioperative period:Preoperatively,personalized nutritional support and cardiac function optimization were provided for patients with nutritional risk(NRS≥3),hypoalbuminemia(Alb<30 g/L),or an early warning score≥4.Intraoperatively,the SynFlow 3.0 operational procedures were standardized,with reinforcement of aseptic techniques and hemodynamic monitoring.Postoperatively,patients were transferred to the ICU for continuous monitoring of circulatory parameters(blood pressure,central venous pressure,urine output,etc.)and hemolysis-related indicators,alongside active prevention of vascular complications,vagal reflex,and thrombotic events.Results The procedural success rate was 100%in all 26 patients,with no severe complications occurring.Nursing interventions effectively maintained an intraoperative mean arterial pressure≥60 mmHg.Postoperative circulatory parameters remained stable(systolic blood pressure 90-130 mmHg,urine output>50 mL/h),and no thrombotic or hemolytic events were reported.The left ventricular ejection fraction significantly increased from 32.44%±4.46%preoperatively to 38.55%±5.42%at 30 days postoperatively,and the difference was statistically significant(t=16.065,P<0.001).Conclusion The implementation of a full-process comprehensive nursing strategy for patients undergoing SynFlow 3.0-assisted high-risk complex PCI effectively stabilizes perioperative hemodynamics,reduces the risk of complications,ensures procedural safety,and promotes cardiac function recovery.

Objective To analyze the association between lifestyle and the risk of type 2 diabetes(T2D)among adult residents.Methods The data was sourced from the Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank.A total of 42 096 adult residents who had not developed T2D were recruited from four districts of Shanghai(Songjiang,Jiading,Minhang,and Xuhui)between 2016 and 2019.The follow-up ended on Feb 28,2023.A structured questionnaire was used to collect information on six lifestyle-related items,including smoking,alcohol consumption,BMI,waist circumference(WC),physical activity,and diet.The unhealthy lifestyle scores(UHLS)were calculated by counting the number of all the unhealthy lifestyle items,with a range of 0-6.New-onset T2D events diagnosed by physicians were obtained through the medical information system.Cox proportional hazards regression model and restricted cubic spline model were utilized to evaluate the association between unhealthy lifestyles and the risk of T2D incidence.Results About 28.1%of the participants led 4-6 unhealthy lifestyles.A total of 1 752 new T2D cases were identified during 218 513.4 person-years of follow-up.Analysis of single unhealthy lifestyle showed that abnormal WC(HR=1.5,95%CI:1.4-1.7)and abnormal BMI(HR=1.3,95%CI:1.2-1.5)were associated with an increased risk of T2D.Compared with individuals with a UHLS of 0-1,those with a UHLS of 3 and 4-6 had 30%(95%CI:1.1-1.6)and 50%(95%CI:1.2-1.8)higher risks of T2D,respectively.Each additional unhealthy lifestyle was associated with a 10%increase in T2D incidence risk(HR=1.1,95%CI:1.1-1.2).Conclusion The risk of T2D in adult residents increases with the cumulative number of unhealthy lifestyles.Adult residents with abnormal WC or BMI,or have three or more unhealthy lifestyles accumulated,will increase the risk of new-onset T2D.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of total bilirubin to albumin ratio(B/A ratio)combined with alpha-fetoprotein(AFP)and abnormal prothrombin induced by vitamin K absence-Ⅱ(PIVKA-Ⅱ)for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods:35 HCC patients(HCC group),35 cirrhosis patients(cirrhosis group),35 HCC patients post-transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)(TACE postoperative group),and 35 healthy volunteers(healthy control group)were selected in our hospital from October 2023 to October 2024.The serum B/A ratio,AFP,and PIVKA-Ⅱ levles were measured and compared across the groups.The correlations between serum B/A ratio,AFP,and PIVKA-Ⅱ in the HCC group were analyzed.The B/A ratio,AFP,PIVKA-Ⅱ were compared across different clinical and pathological features in HCC patients.The serum B/A ratio,AFP,and PIVKA-Ⅱ levels were compared pre and post operation in the HCC group.The diagnostic value of B/A ratio,AFP,PIVKA-Ⅱ alone and in combination for HCC were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves.Results:The serum B/A ratio,AFP,and PIVKA-Ⅱ levels in HCC group and TACE postoperative group were significantly higher than those in the cirrhosis group and healthy control group,and the HCC group was higher than that in the TACE postoperative group(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis results showed that,B/A ratio in the HCC group was positively correlated with AFP(r=0.352,P=0.001),B/A ratio was positively correlated with PIVKA-Ⅱ(r=0.327,P=0.003),and AFP was positively correlated with PIVKA-Ⅱ(r=0.285,P=0.008).Higher TNM stage,larger tumor diameter,presence of vascular invasion,and lower differentiation degree of HCC patients,who had higher B/A ratio,AFP,and PIVKA-Ⅱ levels(P＜0.05).Serum B/A ratio,AFP,and PIVKA-Ⅱ levels in the HCC group post operation were significantly lower than those in pre operation(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis results showed that,when B/A ratio,AFP,and PIVKA-Ⅱ were detected separately,the area under the curve(AUC)was 0.785,0.756,and 0.802,respectively.The AUC for joint detection was 0.925.The AUC in combination was greater than that of individual detection of each indicator.Conclusion:The combination of B/A ratio,AFP,and PIVKA-Ⅱ testing significantly improves the diagnostic efficiency for HCC,which is worthy of clinical application.
