The patient was a 72-year-old female. She developed swelling and pain of the right elbow in 2002, and underwent surgical treatment. Postoperative histopathology confirmed PVNS. In 2007, she developed swelling and pain in the left elbow and underwent synovectomy, and synovectomy again yielded pathology consistent with PVNS. From 2021 onwards, she experienced recurrent bilateral knee pain and swelling. In June 2023, laboratory tests revealed markedly elevated inflammatory markers: C-reactive protein (CRP) 175.3 mg/L, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) 116 mm/h, hemoglobin 83 g/L, and platelet count 537×10<sup>9</sup>/L. Rheumatoid factor, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptideantibody, anti-keratin antibody, and anti-perinuclear factor were all negative. Right knee magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed severe degenerative changes, suprapatellar bursitis with large effusion, and ligamentous injuries. Given her prior PVNS history and knee MRI findings, right knee replacement was performed; however, intraoperatively no nodular or mass-like synovial proliferation was observed. Postoperative synovial pathology demonstrated massive chronic inflammatory cell infiltration, small vessel proliferation, and fibrinoid necrosis-findings typical of rheumatoid arthritis rather than PVNS. After surgery, the left knee continued to experience recurring pain and swelling. In April 2024, she developed swelling and pain in both wrists and right ankle joints. Ultrasound examinations showed synovial proliferation in the wrists, knees, ankles, and metatarsophalangeal joints, with abundant blood flow signals and bone erosion. The patient was diagnosed as SNRA combined with PVNS. Treatment with tocilizumab 400 mg intravenously monthly plus methotrexate 10 mg weekly was initiated. After three months, CRP decreased to 0.73 mg/L, ESR to 6 mm/h. A literature review using Wanfang, CNKI, and PubMed databases with keywords \"rheumatoid arthritis\" and \"pigmented villonodular synovitis\" identified only four previously reported cases of RA combined with PVNS. Including the present case, there were 5 cases (4 females, 1 male), the median age of PVNS onset was 45 (32.5-58.0) years. The knee was the most commonly affected joint (4/5 cases), followed by the elbow. PVNS preceded RA in two cases (by 3 and 12 years), rheumatoid arthritis (RA) preceded PVNS in two cases (by 3 and 15 years), and one case had simultaneous onset. Four of the five patients were seropositive for rheunatoid factor/anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody (RF/anti-CCP); only the index case was seronegative.

LV is a rare condition predominantly affecting young women, with an incidence rate of approximately 1/100 000. Clinically, it manifests as recurrent reticular green spots and painful ulcers on the distal lower extremities, which subsequently heal, leaving behind white and atrophic scars, termed \"white atrophy\". The skin manifestations of the disease are prominent, often seen in dermatology. Recently, the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology of Honghui Hospital, Xi ' an Jiaotong University, admitted a patient with LV. This young female patient presented with recurrent lower limb skin purpura and ulcers, which had occurred spontaneously during the summer for the past three years. Following a skin biopsy conducted at another hospital, she was diagnosed with LV and subsequently treated with phototherapy, anticoagulation therapy, and topical corticosteroids, yet there was no improvement in her condition. In April of this year, she sought further treatment at our hospital and was admitted for comprehensive care. After completing a thorough battery of relevant examinations, we excluded other potential vascular disorders, abnormal coagulation profiles, and autoimmune diseases, such as cutaneous polyarteritis nodosa (cPAN), leukocyte-cracking vasculitis (LCV), and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). The patient remained definitively diagnosed with LV. Under our department's care, she received oral glucocorticoids, tacrolimus for immune modulation, and colchicine for anti-inflammatory effects. Subsequently, her symptoms improved, and she was discharged from the hospital. Four months post-discharge, a follow-up examination revealed significant improvement in her symptoms.

We report a case of SSc combined with AAV complicated with alveolar hemorrhage, gastrointestinal hemorrhage, and cerebral hemorrhage. The patient was a 56-year-old woman with a 20-year history of Raynaud phenomenon, skin sclerosis on the fingertip and face. She developed dry cough for 1 year and shortness of breath after activity for 1month.

Immunological examination showed that anti-topoisomerase Ⅰ (anti-SCL-70) antibody was positive. Lung CT showed interstitial fibrosis in both lower lungs. Systemic sclerosis and chronic renal injury were diagnosed and she was treated with low-dose prednisone and nifedipine. During the treatment, the patient developed rapidly progressive renal insufficiency, immunological indicator showed positive anti-myeloperoxidase antibody (MPO), and renal pathology suggested crescentic glomerulonephritis. The renal damage was considered to be caused by vasculitis, and the diagnosis was modified as systemic sclerosis complicated with AAV, with crescentic nephritis and interstitial lung disease.

During anti-infection treatment, the patient developed gastrointestinal hemorrhage again, accompanied by cerebral hemorrhage, and finally died. This case shows that the incidence of SSc combined with AAV is dangerous, mainly with kidney involvement, manifested as crescents glomerulonephritis. When combined with alveolar hemorrhage, cerebral hemorrhage, the mortality rate is high. Clinicians should pay attention to it, early diagnosis and active treatment should be taken seriously.</p>","PeriodicalId":8790,"journal":{"name":"北京大学学报(医学版)","volume":"58 5","pages":"1084-1089"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13672121/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149191133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"[Design and implementation of a clinical trial image medical record desensitization system based on artificial intelligence technology].","authors":"Zhili Zhang, Zhiying Fu, Min Jiang, Weiwei Liu, Fanxiu Heng","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Objective: </strong>To designe a clinical trial image medical record desensitization system based on artificial intelligence technology and to conduct preliminary applications, achieving the protection of patient privacy and promoting the safe use of clinical image data in clinical trial projects.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>The clinical trial image record desensitization system based on artificial intelligence technology was first performed to preprocess operations, such as cropping and compression on medical images to initialize the image records. Then, it utilized advanced image recognition, natural language processing, and convolutional neural network technologies to automatically classify (labeled, feature extraction, and text recognition) according to the content of medical documents. It automatically identified sensitive information in the image records of clinical trial patients, including personal identity information such as patient name, identification number, medical record number, phone number, and birthplace. Pixel-level masking or blurring was performed on the identified sensitive information points, and an artificial online desensitization system based on canvas technology was assisted to ensure the security and confidentiality of privacy data.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The designed clinical trial image record desensitization system exhibited high performance and efficiency in both desensitization effect and processing speed. After desensitizing 100 000 pieces of image record data in this system, a total of 9 000 medical record image samples were randomly selected from the processed medical document types for automated desensitization effect verification. The average accuracy rate of medical document desensitization reached 88.48%, with an accuracy rate of up to 99.40% for serious adverse event medical documents.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The clinical trial image record desensitization system based on artificial intelligence technology improves accuracy and efficiency in medical data privacy protection. Combined with the artificial online desensitization auxiliary system, it can be applied in production environments, providing reliable technical support for the safe sharing and effective utilization of clinical trial image records.</p>","PeriodicalId":8790,"journal":{"name":"北京大学学报(医学版)","volume":"58 5","pages":"1065-1070"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13672182/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149191037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
