Objective:To assess the safety and efficacy of thiotepa, busulfan, and etoposide (TBE) conditioning followed by autologous hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (TBE auto-HSCT) in primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) patients.Methods:Clinical data from 27 PCNSL patients who received TBE auto-HSCT at the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital between November 1, 2021, and April 30, 2024, were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Twenty-seven patients [16 males, 11 females; median age 57 (23–72) years] were included, with 12 (44.4%, 12/27) over 60. Twenty-five had newly diagnosed PCNSL and 2 were relapsed. Median time from diagnosis to transplantation was 6.9 (5.0–10.0) months. TBE auto-HSCT increased complete remission (CR) rate from 63.0 to 96.3% ( P= 0.005), and 9 of 10 patients in partial remission achieving CR post-transplant. Median follow-up was 24.5 months (range 2.0–36.0). Two-year progress-free and OS rates were (87.2±6.9) % and (88.6±6.2) %, respectively. Common grade 3 nonhematologic adverse events were diarrhea (18.5%, 5/27) and bacterial infections (14.8%, 4/27). One patient (64 years old) died from carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae infection within 2 months post-transplant, yielding a 100-day treatment-related mortality of 3.7% (1/27) . Conclusion:TBE-conditioned high-dose chemotherapy with auto-HSCT is effective, safe, and well-tolerated in PCNSL patients, including the elderly.

Objective:To survey the relationship among parents'rearing style,family conformity and obsess-ive-compulsive symptoms in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD).Methods:Totally 216 patients di-agnosed with OCD were recruited(59 cases of mild obsessive-compulsive symptoms,121 cases of moderate obsess-ive-compulsive symptoms,36 cases of severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms).They were assessed with the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Scale(Y-BOCS),Egma Minnen av Bardndosna Uppforstran(EMBU),and Family Accommodation Scale for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder-Patient Version(FAS-PV).Results:The severe obsessive-compulsive symptom group had the lowest positive parenting style scores.Conversely,they had the high-est negative parental rearing scores and total FAS-PV scores(Ps＜0.01).The ordered logistic regression results showed that male patients had less severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms(OR=0.22).Patients with lower years of education(OR=0.87)and positive parental rearing scores(OR=0.98,0.97)had more severe obsessive-com-pulsive symptoms.Conversely,higher negative paternal rearing scores(OR=1.02)and total FAS-PV scores(OR=1.04)were associated with more severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms.Conclusion:This study suggests that the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms is related to parental rearing style and family accommodation.Patients with severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms are more likely to feel negative paternal rearing style and higher level of family compliance,and less likely to feel positive parental rearing style.

We report a 30-year-old woman who presented with intermittent gross hematuria and left flank pain，and CT revealed a left staghorn stones. The initial percutaneous nephrolithotomy（PCNL）left a 6 mm fragment，and both stone and urine cultures yielded extended-spectrum β-lactamase（ESBL）-producing Escherichia coli. Seven months later，the stone increased to 6 cm and urine culture revealed Proteus mirabilis. Endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery（ECIRS）achieved complete clearance. At 6-month follow-up，the patient remained asymptomatic，culture-negative，and stone-free. This case highlights that small residual fragments after PCNL may rapidly enlarge with secondary urease-producing infection，underscoring the need for early re-intervention and standard follow-up.

Objective:To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of a child with autosomal recessive primary microcephaly (MCPH).Methods:A case study has been carried out on a boy who had presented at the Inner Mongolia Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital for microcephaly and mental deficiency in September 2022. Prenatal ultrasound images were retrospectively analyzed, and whole exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing were carried out for his family. A literature review was also carried out using keywords such as " ASPM gene", "microcephaly", "prenatal diagnosis", "primary microcephaly", " ASPM", "MCPH5", "MCPH", "autosomal recessive microcephaly", and "prenatal diagnosis on ultrasonography" on the PubMed database, Wanfang Data and China National Knowledge until September 2023. This study was approved by Medical Ethics Committee of the Inner Mongolia Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital (Ethics No. 2021-093-1). Results:The proband had shown progressive reduction in biparietal diameter (BPD) and head circumference (HC) during the fetal period. He was found to harbor compound heterozygous variants of the ASPM gene, which included a paternally derived c. 8044C>T (p.R2682X) and a maternally derived c.8652dup (p.A2885Sfs*35). Both variants were classified as pathogenic (PVS1+ PM2_Supporting+ PP4; PVS1+ PM2_Supporting+ PM3) based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). For other fetuses in his family, prenatal ultrasound and genetic testing were all normal. Literature research has identified 11 relevant articles, which included 14 MCPH cases. All of the MCPH5 cases had shown various degrees of reduced BPD/HC on fetal imaging (100%, 15/15). Developmental delay, intellectual disability, and attention deficits were noted in all survived cases, with one case having seizures (12.5%, 1/8). Their genotypes had included homozygotes (46.2%, 6/13) and compound heterozygotes (53.8%, 7/13) for nonsense variants (45%, 9/20) and frameshifting variants (55%, 11/20). Conclusion:The compound heterozygous variants c. 8044C>T (p.R2682X) and c. 8652dup (p.A2885Sfs*35) of the ASPM gene probably underlay the reduced BPD and HC in this proband with MCPH.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of CT plain scanning for isolated superior mesenteric artery dissection(ISMAD).Methods This study retrospectively investigated CT plain images of the superior mesenteric artery(SMA)in 45 patients with ISM AD and 45 patients without ISMAD.The imaging manifestations of ISMAD were analyzed,and the sensitivity and specificity of these manifestations were analyzed using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results There were statistically significant differences in both the trunk diameter and standardized trunk diameter of the SMA between the two groups(P＜0.001,P=0.001).Additionally,the area under the curve(AUC)for the SMA trunk diameter in diagnosing ISMAD was determined to be 0.988,with a statistically significant P-value of less than 0.001.Furthermore,when the diameter of the SMA trunk reached 8.20 mm,the diagnostic sensitivity was 97.8％and the specificity was 93.3％.The AUC for the standardized diameter of the SMA trunk was determined to be 0.976.Additionally,when the standardized diameter of the SMA trunk reached 70.33％,the diagnostic sensitivity was 95.6％and the specificity was 82.2％.There was no statistically significant difference observed in the luminal CT value and standardized CT value of the SMA between the two groups(P＞0.05).Additionally,the presence of the"crescent sign"and peritubular fat blurring in the SMA demonstrated some level of diagnostic significance.Conclusion CT scanning has the capability to identify the enlarged diameter of the SMA trunk,as well as plain the"crescent sign"and related manifestations.This finding holds significant value in diagnosing ISMAD.Furthermore,it provides the basis for the necessity of subsequent computed tomography angiography(CTA)examinations.

Objective:This study investigated the efficacy and safety of denosumab (DENOS) versus zoledronic acid (ZOL) in the bone disease treatment of newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.Methods:The clinical data of 80 patients with myeloma bone disease (MBD) at the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital between March 1, 2021 and June 30, 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. Eighteen patients with severe renal impairment (SRI, endogenous creatinine clearance rate<30 ml/min) were treated with DENOS, and 62 non-SRI patients were divided into DENOS (30 patients) and ZOL group (32 patients) .Results:Hypocalcemia was observed in 26 (33%) patients, and 22 patients developed hypocalcemia during the first treatment course. The incidence of hypocalcemia in the non-SRI patients of DENOS group was higher than that in the ZOL group [20% (6/30) vs 13% (4/32), P=0.028]. The incidence of hypocalcemia in SRI was 89% (16/18). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that endogenous creatinine clearance rate<30 ml/min was significantly associated with hypocalcemia after DENOS administration ( P<0.001). After 1 month of antiresorptive (AR) drug application, the decrease in the serum β-C-terminal cross-linked carboxy-telopeptide of collagen type I concentrations of SRI and non-SRI patients in the DENOS group were significantly higher than that in the ZOL group (68% vs 59% vs 27%, P<0.001). The increase in serum procollagen type Ⅰ N-terminal propeptide concentrations of patients with or without SRI in the DENOS group were significantly higher than that in the ZOL group (34% vs 20% vs 11%, P<0.05). The level of intact parathyroid hormone in each group increased after AR drug treatment. None of the patients developed osteonecrosis of the jaw and renal adverse events, and no statistically significant differences in the overall response rate, complete remission and stringent complete remission rates were found among the groups ( P>0.05), and the median PFS and OS time were not reached ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:In the treatment of MBD, DENOS minimizes nephrotoxicity and has strong AR effect. Hypocalcemia is a common adverse event but is usually mild or moderate and manageable.

Objective:To investigate the effect of local anesthesia in patients with a PI-RADS score of 5 and ECOG score ≥2 for prostate puncture.Methods:Retrospective analysis of case data of 33 patients admitted to the Subei People's Hospital for prostate puncture from April 2020 to April 2022. Age (82.5±3.6) years. There were 18 cases with hypertensive disease, 8 cases with diabetes mellitus, and 6 cases with both diabetes mellitus and hypertensive disease. Body mass index (25.2±3.5) kg/m 2. prostate-specific antigen (PSA)(131.5±69.7) ng/ml. prostate volume (38.5±21.4) ml. all patients had a PI-RADS score of 5 on multiparametric magnetic resonance (mpMRI) and an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score ≥2. All 33 cases in this group underwent trans-perineal targeted prostate puncture using local anesthesia at the tip of the prostate. The visual analog score (VAS) and visual numeric score (VNS) were applied by the same surgeon to assess the patient's pain level and satisfaction at the time of puncture (VAS-1 and VNS-1) and 30 min after puncture (VAS-2 and VNS-2), and to record the duration of the procedure and the occurrence of postoperative complications. Results:In this group of 33 cases, the VAS-1 score was (1.9±0.3) and the VAS-2 score was (0.1±0.2); the VNS-1 score was (2.9±0.2) and the VNS-2 score was (3.9±0.1). Postoperative pathological results indicated that one of the 33 patients had a negative puncture result (pathology report indicating interstitial inflammation), while the rest of the patients had a positive puncture pathology report (puncture pathology report indicating prostate cancer), with a positive rate of 97%. One case of postoperative carnal haematuria occurred, which gradually improved after the patient was advised to drink water and take alpha-blockers. No perineal hematoma occurred, and all patients did not suffer complications such as urinary tract infection, urinary retention, azoospermia, vagal reaction, and infectious shock.Conclusion:In patients with a PI-RADS score of 5 and ECOG score ≥2, the use of single-hole local anesthesia for performing trans-perineal targeted puncture biopsy has the advantages of good paroxysmal pain and high safety.
