It is caused by inadequate production of antidiuretic hormone, in response to hypothalamic osmoreceptor-stimulation, from the pituitary gland (central DI) or resistance to its action at terminal distal convoluted tubules and collecting ducts (nephrogenic DI). Most cases of nephrogenic DI are caused by drugs, especially chronic lithium use. The Case: A 46-year-old man manifested such a disorder 8 months following d-Penicillamine (d-P) therapy for cystinuria. The drug was discontinued and the patient was managed conservatively with high fluid intake, diet low in protein and salt as well as alkalization of urine with Urolyte U to a pH > 7.5. Six weeks later, such side effect disappeared. Our patient had developed such phenomenon: a) without significant liver or renal disease to account for cumulative toxicity, and b) with a conventional dosage range of d-P. Such isolated toxicity indicates inherited a predisposition to this side effect. Conclusion: DI is a potential side effect of d-P therapy that is nephrogenic in site, transient in prognosis and an isolated phenomenon likely to reflect genetic predisposition.展开更多
目的:对比三维多回波恢复梯度回波(3D MERGE)、三维可变反转角快速自旋回波(3D SPACE STIR)序列在腰椎间盘突出症(LDH)检查中的应用效果。方法:选择2020年1月~2022年11月收治的135例LDH患者,回顾性分析患者临床和磁共振成像(MRI)资料,...目的:对比三维多回波恢复梯度回波(3D MERGE)、三维可变反转角快速自旋回波(3D SPACE STIR)序列在腰椎间盘突出症(LDH)检查中的应用效果。方法:选择2020年1月~2022年11月收治的135例LDH患者,回顾性分析患者临床和磁共振成像(MRI)资料,所有患者均接受常规MRI扫描及3D MERGE、3D SPACE STIR序列扫描,对比3D MERGE、3D SPACE STIR序列测量神经根直径的一致性,评价两种序列的图像质量参数[信噪比(SNR)、对比噪声比(CNR)]、图像清晰度评分。结果:3D MERGE和3D SPACE STIR序列测量的L3~S1神经根直径比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),且两组序列测量的L3、L4、L5和S1直径均显示出较高相关性(r=0.957,0.986,0.975,0.972,P<0.05);3D MERGE序列的SNR及CNR均高于3D SPACE STIR序列,神经根显示分级、图像清晰度评分优于3D SPACE STIR序列,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:3D MERGE、3D SPACE STIR序列在LDH神经根直径测量中具有极高一致性,3D MERGE序列较3D SPACE STIR序列能够更清晰显示神经跟的解剖形态,图像质量更好。展开更多

文摘目的探讨原发性干燥综合征(primary Sj gren syndrome,pSS)患者唾液胱抑素D水平与唾液腺损伤的相关性。方法纳入2022年9月1日至2023年6月30日就诊于西安交通大学第一附属医院风湿免疫科pSS组患者51例及年龄、性别匹配的来院健康体检对照组人员51例。检测唾液中胱抑素D水平,采用独立样本t检验评估两组胱抑素D水平的差异,采用Pearson相关性检验评估pSS组胱抑素D与临床指标的关系。结果pSS组唾液中胱抑素D水平明显低于对照组(206.55±108.11 vs 374.32±172.24 pg/mL,P<0.01)。pSS患者胱抑素D水平与其静态唾液流率(r=0.433,P=0.002)及动态唾液流率(r=0.363,P=0.009)呈正相关。高唾液腺超声检查评分的pSS患者唾液胱抑素D水平明显低于低评分患者(腮腺:160.75±85.56 vs 290.53±95.17 pg/mL,P<0.01;颌下腺:157.76±87.59 vs 276.25±97.06 pg/mL,P<0.01)。pSS患者胱抑素D水平与外周血IL-6水平(r=-0.453,P=0.001)及CD4+T细胞计数(r=-0.396,P=0.005)呈负相关。结论pSS患者唾液胱抑素D水平可作为反映唾液腺损伤的指标。
