ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical manifestations, basic diseases, imaging features, drug sensitivity results and recovery of Mycobacterium Kansasii pulmonary disease patients to enhance understanding of the disease. Methods The clinical data of 116 patients with Mycobacterium Kansas pulmonary disease diagnosed in Guangzhou chest hospital from January 2019 to September 2024 were analyzed retrospectively. Results The 116 patients with Mycobacterium kansasensei lung disease were 67 males and 49 females, aged 27 to 92 years, with clinical manifestations of cough and sputum (102 cases) and hemoptysis (48 cases) as the predominant symptoms. There were 98 cases with history of bronchiectasis, 8 cases with cancer,18 cases with cardiovascular disease, 22 cases with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, 10 cases with diabetes mellitus, 9 cases with rheumatoid immune system disease, 5 cases with pulmonary aspergillus infection, 2 cases with asthma, and 10 cases without underlying disease. All of them had lung shadows on imaging, including 30 cases with simple bronchodilatation manifestation, 48 cases with bronchodilatation combined with cavitation, 10 cases with patchy streak shadow, 18 cases with patchy streak shadow combined with cavitation, and 10 cases with nodules combined with cavitation. The results of drug sensitivity showed that the resistance rate of more than 50% was isoniazid (89.66%), streptomycin (75.87%), amikacin (72.41%), and isoniazid para-aminosalicylate (Likely Lung Disease) (56.90%); while the sensitivity rate of more than 50% was rifabutin (100%), moxifloxacin (94.83%), rifampicin (93.10%), prothioisonicotinamide ( 91.38%), levofloxacin (89.66%), ethambutol (84.48%), and linezolid (79.31%). 76 of the remaining 98 of 116 patients had negative sputum cultures within 1 year, with the exception of 12 who were left untreated and 6 who did not complete treatment. The 116 patients with Mycobacterium kansasensei lung disease presented with chronic cough, sputum, and hemoptysis, and most of them were combined with structural lung diseases such as bronchiectasis, or with underlying diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and diabetes mellitus. Imaging features show pulmonary shadows. Moreover, Mycobacterium kansasii shows high sensitivity to most conventional antituberculosis drugs, which may result in a higher cure rate compared with other types of nontuberculous mycobacterial lung disease. Therefore, timely and well-conducted strain identification and drug sensitivity testing are essential for the development of a targeted treatment program that can significantly improve patient outcomes. Conclusions Clinical manifestations of 116 patients with Mycobacterium kansasense lung disease were characterized by chronic cough, sputum and hemoptysis, which were mostly combined with structural lung diseases such as bronchiectasis. The imaging features show pulmonary shadows. Mycobacterium kansasii exhibits a higher sensitivity rate to most conventional anti-tuberculosis drugs, which may result in a higher cure rate in treatment compared to other types of nontuberculous mycobacterial lung diseases. Therefore, timely and comprehensive species identification and drug susceptibility testing are crucial for formulating targeted treatment regimens, which can significantly improve patients' treatment outcomes.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of incision closure device in laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy. MethodsThe clinical data of 130 patients underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy from Oct. 2014 to Feb. 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the methods of gallbladder suture, 130 cases were divided into two groups, 72 cases underwent traditional manual suture (MS group), and 58 cases underwent incision closure device (ICD group). The operative time, postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery time, bleeding volume, postoperative hospitalization time, hospitalization expenses, complications, and postoperative 6-12 months follow-up of patients in 2 groups were observed.Results One hundred and thirty cases were performed laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy successfully. The operative time and postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery time of ICD group were significantly shorter than those of MS group, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The hospitalization expenses of the patients in ICD group were significantly higher than those in the MD group (P < 0.05). There were no significant difference between the two groups in the bleeding volume and postoperative hospital stay (P > 0.05). The patients were followed up for 6-12 months, with an average of 8 months, and no complications occurred and stone recurrence. ConclusionIncision closure device can shorten the time of laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy and postoperative recovery of gastrointestinal function, but the cost is higher. Next development, still need decrease the expend and strengthen clinical promotion.

Methods From January, 1999 to January, 2010, 42 inpatients with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis were collected and their clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. Results Out of these 42 patients, 11 (26.19% ) were within 5 to 14 years, 20 (47.62%) ithin 15 to 40 years; 23 (54.76%) had definite infection, and 15 (35. 71%)had no any causes; 23 (23/34, 67.65%) had abnormal cerebrospinal fluid; 27 (27/32, 84.38%) had abnormal electro-encephalograph; 26 (26/40, 65.00%) were CT positive, 25 (25/28, 89.29%) MRI positive; corticosteroids and gamma globulin were effective in the treatment of disseminated encephalomyelitis.

Objective To reinforce the recognization of deltoid contracture inchildren and probe its causes, pathomechanism,diagnosis and treatments. Methods The Clinical data were summarized and analysed, including etiological factors, clinical situations, examinations and treatments from 9 child patients with deltoid contracture from 1992 to2004. The 9 child patients were followed up to evaluate therapeutic efficacy. Results Nine child patients with deltoid contractureincluded 4 boys and 5 girls, who aged from 5 to 14 years. The main clinical features were presented as abductive deformity,limitation of adduction of the shoulder, winging of the scapula, and dimpling of the skin with a palpable fibrous hard band in deltoid muscle. Four cases had a history of intramuscular injections in deltoid and 1 case was accompanied with bilateral gluteul contracture.Among the 9 patients, 8 cases were misdiagnosed before correct diagnosis and treatment. The misdiagnosis rate was up to 90%. All the cases received the operative treatments to release fibrous bands and were followed up for 8 months to 12 years. Abductive deformity disappeared and functions of the shoulders recovered inall patients, except 1 patient who had a lightly winged scapula. Conclusion Deltoid contracture may be caused by multiple factors,but its clinical features are conductive to correct diagnosis and excellent therapautic efficacy can be acquired by operation early.
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical features of myasthenia gravis (MG) harboring both acetylcholine receptor antibody (AChRAb) and muscle-specific tyrosine kinase antibody (MuSKAb) positivity.MethodsWe searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases (from inception to November 2016), to collect the case reports of MG with both AChRAb and MuSKAb positivity. Along with one case discovered in Department of Neurology, West China Hospital, the clinical data of the cases were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsA total of 13 double-seropositive MG patients were enrolled in this study, demonstrating a marked female predominance (including 1 male and 12 females) and a younger age at onset [(31.07±24.77) years]. During the disease course, 10 of the included patients presented severe bulbar involvement, dyspnea and neck weakness, with myasthenic crisis in 6 individuals. Among the 11 patients with detailed records, abnormal thymus glands comprised 4 thymus hyperplasia and one thymoma. While the response to oral pyridostigmine was unsatisfactory in 11 double-seropositive MG patients, ranging from mild benefit to overt intolerance; the patients treated with plasma exchange (3/3), rituximab (1/1) or corticosteroid (7/12) improved dramatically, with other immumosuppressants and intravenous immunoglobulin partially responsive. Moreover, 5 patients undergoing thymectomy improved markedly or partially.ConclusionsCompared with MG patients with MuSKAb positivity merely, the condition of the double-seropositive MG patients seem to be more severe and further inclined to myasthenic crisis. The incidence of abnormal thymus, such as thymus hyperplasia, is higher. Thymectomy may be an effective treatment for such patients.
