文摘BACKGROUND A case of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder(NMOSD)with positive cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)anti-aquaporin-4 antibody(AQP4-IgG)and anti-glial fibrillary acidic protein IgG(GFAP-IgG)at the time of relapse was reported.The exact roles of GFAP-IgG in NMOSD are not fully understood and are the subject of ongoing research.This study revealed the possible connection between GFAPIgG and the occurrence or development of diseases.CASE SUMMARY A 19-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital due to a constellation of symptoms,including dizziness,nausea,and vomiting that commenced 1 year prior,reoccurred 2 mo ago,and were accompanied by visual blurring that also began 2 mo ago.Additionally,she presented with slurred speech and ptosis,both of which emerged 1 mo ago.Notably,her symptoms deteriorated 10 d prior to admission,leading to the onset of arm and leg weakness.During hospitalization,magnetic resonance imaging showed high T2-fluid attenuated inversion recovery signals,and slightly high and equal diffusion-weighted imaging signals.The serum antibody of AQP4-IgG tested positive at a dilution of 1:100.CSF antibody testing showed positive results for GFAP-IgG at a dilution of 1:10 and AQP4-IgG at a dilution of 1:32.Based on these findings,the patient was diagnosed with NMOSD.She received intravenous methylprednisolone at a daily dose of 500 mg for 5 d,followed by a tapering-off period.Afterward,the rate of reduction was gradually slowed down and the timely use of immunosuppressants was implemented.CONCLUSION The CFS was slightly GFAP-IgG-positive during the relapse period,which can aid in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
文摘制播系统IP化发展过程中,SMPTE ST 2110协议规范并定义了制播系统中不同IP实体流的承载、同步和描述的标准,但只是解决了IP系统中传输层互联互通的问题,而NMOS(网络媒体开放规范)为SMPTE ST 2110的传输层规范补充了控制层与管理层,从而将ST 2110本身复杂的操作抽象为提供接口以便于与任何控制系统交互的软件层,将本来复杂的底层操作变为简单的操作。本文主要介绍了制播系统中NMOS(网络媒体开放规范)实现方法,着重分析了IS-04(发现与注册)和IS-05(连接管理)实现细节。
文摘Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder(NMOSD)is a humoral immune-mediated inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system with an unclear pathogenesis,often associated with autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus and dry syndrome.The pathology of the disease shows demyelinating changes and axonal damage,and the lesions mostly involve the optic nerve and spinal cord,and the last region of the medulla oblongata,thalamus,paraventricular,and other sites with high aquaporin-4 expression can also be involved.The clinical manifestations are closely related to the location of the lesion,with common symptoms such as optic neuritis,acute myelitis,and intractable eruption,and most patients have recurrent episodes that can leave sequelae such as visual impairment and urinary and bowel disorders.However,a few patients present with less common symptoms,which can easily be missed or misdiagnosed,delaying the diagnosis and treatment of the disease.In this paper,we report the case of a middle-aged female patient with the first symptoms of optic neuritis who developed seizures after 2 months.After completing relevant tests,cerebrospinal fluid and serum anti-aquaporin-4 antibodies were positive,and NMOSD with symptomatic epilepsy was considered.Seizures did not recur after hormone therapy was given again.The purpose of this report is to improve awareness and diagnosis of NMOSD among clinicians.
