Rhodamine B staining and bias fitting were used to verify the availability of the models.

Slices were taken at 2, 4, 6, and 8 mm from the root apex in the direction perpendicular to the long axis of the root and observed under a stereomicroscope to calculate the percentage of filling area (PAV), percentage of gutta-percha-filled area (PGFA), percentage of sealer filled area (PSFA).

{"title":"[Abnormal elevation of growth hormone in patients with pituitary adenoma combined with cirrhosis: A case report].","authors":"Yanlei Wang, Min Duan, Jianzhong Xiao, Wenhui Zhao","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The oral glucose growth hormone suppression test is commonly used in the clinical diagnosis of acromegaly, but its results can be influenced by a variety of factors. This case report discusses a patient with a pituitary tumor and concurrent liver cirrhosis, highlighting the complexities in interpreting test results under such conditions. The patient, a 54-year-old male, presented with blurred vision as his primary complaint. Notably, the physical examination revealed no changes in facial features, no enlargement of hands or feet, and no other symptoms typically associated with acromegaly, which might otherwise suggest excessive growth hormone activity. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of the pituitary gland indicated that the gland was within normal size parameters, but a small low-intensity lesion mea-suring approximately 3 mm×2 mm identified. This finding was consistent with a pituitary microadenoma. The patient's fasting growth hormone levels were significantly elevated at 8.470 μg/L, compared with the normal range of less than 2.47 μg/L. Conversely, fasting insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels were notably low, recorded at 41 and 52 μg/L, whereas the normal range for a person of his age was between 87 and 234 μg/L. Other pituitary hormones, including those regulating the thyroid, adrenal cortex, and sex hormones, were found to be within normal ranges. Despite this, during the glucose growth hormone suppression test, an abnormal elevation of growth hormone was observed. To investigate further, the patient was administered branched-chain amino acids, and the suppression test was repeated. However, the abnormal elevation of growth hormone persisted, indicating a failure to normalize the response. Given the patient's lack of clinical signs typically associated with elevated growth hormone secretion, the history of liver cirrhosis became a significant consideration. The disparity between elevated growth hormone levels and reduced IGF-1 levels suggested that the pituitary lesion was a non-functional adenoma rather than a source of excess hormone production. Consequently, it was concluded that the abnormal response of growth hormone to the glucose suppression test was likely related to the patient's liver cirrhosis. In addition to chronic liver disease, various other conditions could influence the results of the oral glucose tolerance growth hormone suppression test. According to the literature, factors such as puberty, diabetes, anorexia nervosa, and protein malnutrition could also affect test outcomes. These conditions could cause similar abnormalities in growth hormone dynamics, complicating the diagnosis. Therefore, clinicians must be vigilant and consider these potential influences when interpreting test results.For an accurate diagnosis of acromegaly, it is essential to combine clinical symptoms, detailed medical history, and imaging studies. The presence of conditions like liver cirrhosis should prompt careful interpretation of t","PeriodicalId":8790,"journal":{"name":"北京大学学报（医学版）","volume":"57 2","pages":"400-402"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11992449/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143961184","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}

The pathogenesis is not clear yet. Recently, multiple studies have found the association between Sweet syndrome and infections, autoimmune diseases, malignant tumors and the application of multiple drugs. According to different causes, Sweet syndrome can be divided into three types: classical (or idiopathic) Sweet syndrome, malignancy-associated Sweet syndrome and drug-induced Sweet syndrome. Classical Sweet syndrome usually presents in women between the age of 30 to 50 years and may be related to infection, inflammatory bowel disease, or pregnancy. The clinical symptoms typically respond promptly after corticosteroid therapy. The major diagnostic criteria of classical Sweet syndrome include sudden painful erythematous skin lesions, histopathologic evidence of a dense neutrophilic infiltrate without evidence of leukocytoclastic vasculitis; minor criteria include pyrexia over 38 ℃, association with hematologic or visceral malignancies, inflammatory diseases, pregnancy or preceded by infection, prompt response to systemic glucocorticoid or potassium iodide treatment, abnormal laboratory values (three of four: erythrocyte sedimentation rate &gt;20 mm/h, positive C-reactive protein, &gt;8.0×10&lt;sup&gt;9&lt;/sup&gt;/L leukocytes, &gt;70% neutrophils). The presence of both major criteria and two of the four minor criteria are required to diagnose classical Sweet syndrome. As for the malignancy-associated Sweet syndrome, skin lesions can be found precede, follow, or at the same time with the diagnosis of hematologic malignancy or a solid tumor. At present, &lt;sup&gt;18&lt;/sup&gt;F-fluorodeoxyglucose (&lt;sup&gt;18&lt;/sup&gt;F-FDG) is commonly used as a positron emission tomography computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging agent for diagnosing and screening malignant tumors.

With the prolongation of oxygen exposure, the number of alveoli decreased, the volume increased, the structure simplified, the alveolar cavity enlarged obviously and the alveolar septum thickened in the hyperoxia group. On the 7th, 14th and 21st days after birth, the RAC in the hyperoxia group was significantly lower than that in the air group (<i>P</i> all < 0.05). Compared with the air group, MAD and AST increased significantly on the 7th, 14th and 21st days after birth in the hyperoxia group, and the difference was statistically significant (<i>P</i> all < 0.05). The expression level of miR-34a in lung tissue of hyperoxia group was significantly higher than that of air group on the 7th, 14th and 21st days after birth, and the difference was statistically significant (<i>P</i> all < 0.05). Compared with the air group at the same time point, the expression levels of Ang-1 and Tie-2 mRNA and protein in the hyperoxia group were lower than those in the air group on the 14th and 21st days after birth (<i>P</i> all < 0.05).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The new BPD model of newborn SD rats can be successfully established by continuous exposure to 60% hyperoxia. The expression of miR-34a was up-regulated in the lung tissue of the new BPD model of neonatal rats. MiR-34a may play an important role in the occurrence and development of BPD by regulating Ang-1/Tie-2 signal pathway.</p>","PeriodicalId":8790,"journal":{"name":"北京大学学报（医学版）","volume":"57 2","pages":"237-244"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11992441/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143960034","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}

The patients were divided into CMD group and normal group according to the coronary microcirculation status detected by MCE. Clinical data and MCE data of the two groups were collected and analyzed. The acute heart failure event during hospitalization was described. A multivariate Logistic regression model was built to analyze the risk of acute heart failure in patients with CMD.

Acute left heart failure happened in 13.8% of the CMD patients, which were significant higher than that in the patients with normal coronary microcirculation perfusion (1.7%, <i>P</i>=0.013).
