Purpose: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a global health concern linked to various complications, including cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, long-term follow-up studies on the risk of DM and CVD using different blood glucose assessment methods in the general Korean population are lacking. This study aimed to assess the predictive abilities of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-h oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) for new-onset DM and high CVD risk in a middle-aged and older Korean population.

Methods: This study used data from the Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study, a population-based prospective cohort. Blood sugar measures (FPG, OGTT, and HbA1c) were examined. The primary endpoint was the development of new-onset DM, and CVD risk was evaluated using the Framingham risk score. The predictive abilities for new-onset DM based on glycemic values were evaluated using Harrell's Concordance index and 95% confidence intervals.

Results: Among the 10,030 participants, data of 6813 participants without DM at baseline were analyzed. The study revealed that OGTT outperformed FPG and HbA1c in predicting new-onset DM. The combination of FPG and HbA1c did not significantly enhance predictions for DM compared with OGTT alone. OGTT also outperformed FPG and HbA1c in predicting high CVD risk, and this difference remained significant even after adjusting for additional confounders.

Conclusion: OGTT has superior predictive capabilities in identifying new-onset DM and high CVD risk in the Korean population. This suggests that relying solely on individual blood sugar measures may be insufficient for assessing DM and CVD risks.

目的:糖尿病(DM)是一个全球关注的健康问题,与包括心血管疾病(CVD)在内的各种并发症有关。然而,在韩国普通人群中使用不同的血糖评估方法对糖尿病和心血管疾病风险进行的长期跟踪研究尚属空白。本研究旨在评估空腹血浆葡萄糖(FPG)、2 小时口服葡萄糖耐量试验(OGTT)和糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)对韩国中老年人群中新发 DM 和高 CVD 风险的预测能力:本研究使用的数据来自韩国基因组与流行病学研究(Korean Genome and Epidemiology Study),这是一项基于人群的前瞻性队列研究。对血糖指标(FPG、OGTT 和 HbA1c)进行了检测。主要终点是新发糖尿病的发病情况,并使用弗雷明汉风险评分评估心血管疾病风险。使用哈雷尔一致性指数和 95% 置信区间评估了基于血糖值的新发糖尿病的预测能力:在 10,030 名参与者中,分析了 6813 名基线时未患有糖尿病的参与者的数据。研究显示,在预测新发糖尿病方面,OGTT 的效果优于 FPG 和 HbA1c。与单独进行OGTT相比,结合使用FPG和HbA1c并不能显著提高对DM的预测。在预测心血管疾病高风险方面,OGTT也优于FPG和HbA1c,即使在调整了其他混杂因素后,这一差异仍然显著:结论:在韩国人群中,OGTT 在识别新发糖尿病和心血管疾病高风险方面具有更强的预测能力。结论:在韩国人群中,OGTT 在识别新发糖尿病和心血管疾病高风险方面具有更强的预测能力,这表明仅依靠单个血糖指标可能不足以评估糖尿病和心血管疾病风险。

Purpose: To perform a molecular profiling of the metastases from papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs) and poorly differentiated thyroid carcinomas (PDTCs).

Methods: We retrieved and analyzed the molecular and clinical features of 136 metastases from PTCs and 35 metastases from PDTCs subjected to targeted DNA sequencing, from cBioPortal. The clinicopathological data included the number and location of the metastases, and genomic data included mutations, translocations, copy number alterations and fraction of the genome altered (FGA).

Results: Bone metastases from PTCs had a lower frequency of BRAF mutations than the lymph node metastases (LNMs) (43% vs 88%, p < 0.01), and a higher frequency of RBM10 and NRAS mutations than the LNMs (21% vs 3% for both, p < 0.05). The FGA of the bone metastases was higher than the FGA of the lung metastases (5.6% vs 1.3%, p < 0.05). The frequency of RET translocations was higher in the lung metastases from PTCs than the LNMs (15% vs 3%, p < 0.05). The LNMs from PTC patients harboring 4 or more distant metastases (DMs) had a higher frequency of TERT promoter mutations than the LNMs from patients harboring less than 4 DMs (96% vs 65%, p < 0.001). SDHA gene amplifications were enriched in the bone metastases from PDTCs and absent in the LNMs (38% vs 0%, p < 0.05).

Conclusion: Metastases from PTCs and PDTCs harbor clinically relevant alterations affecting distinct body locations, such as NRAS and RBM10 mutations, RET translocations and SDHA amplifications that may be explored therapeutically.

Clinical and functional characterization of a novel KCNJ11 (c.101G > A, p.R34H) mutation associated with maturity-onset diabetes mellitus of the young type 13. 一种新型 KCNJ11(c.101G > A, p.R34H)突变的临床和功能特征与成熟期发病的 13 型青年糖尿病有关。

Purpose: This study aimed to describe the clinical features, diagnostic and therapeutic course of a patient with MODY13 caused by KCNJ11 (c.101G > A, p.R34H) and how it contributes to the pathogenesis of MODY13, and to explore new therapeutic targets.

Methods: Whole-exome sequencing was used to screen prediagnosed individuals and family members with clinically suspected KCNJ11 mutations. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, western blotting, thallium flux of potassium channels, glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS), and immunofluorescence assays were used to analyze the regulation of insulin secretion by the KCNJ11 mutant in MIN6 cells. Daily blood glucose levels were continuously monitored for 14 days in the proband using the ambulatory blood glucose meter (SIBIONICS).

Results: Mutation screening of the entire exon of the gene identified a heterozygous KCNJ11 (c.101G > A, p.R34H) mutation in the proband and his mother. Cell-based GSIS assays after transfection of MIN6 using wild-type and mutant plasmids revealed that this mutation impaired insulin secretory function. Furthermore, we found that this impaired secretory function is associated with reduced functional activity of the mutant KCNJ11 protein and reduced expression of the insulin secretion-associated exocytosis proteins STXBP1 and SNAP25.

Conclusion: For the first time, we revealed the pathogenic mechanism of KCNJ11 (c.101G > A, p.R34H) associated with MODY13. This mutant can cause alterations in KATP channel activity, reduce sensitivity to glucose stimulation, and impair pancreatic β-cell secretory function by downregulating insulin secretion-associated exocytosis proteins. Therefore, oral sulfonylurea drugs can lower blood glucose levels through pro-insulinotropic effects and are more favorable for patients with this mutation.

目的:本研究旨在描述一名由KCNJ11(c.101G > A, p.R34H)导致的MODY13患者的临床特征、诊断和治疗过程,以及它如何导致MODY13的发病机制,并探索新的治疗靶点:方法:采用全外显子组测序筛选临床疑似 KCNJ11 基因突变的诊断前个体和家庭成员。采用实时荧光定量 PCR、Western 印迹、钾通道铊通量、葡萄糖刺激胰岛素分泌(GSIS)和免疫荧光检测等方法分析 KCNJ11 突变体对 MIN6 细胞胰岛素分泌的调控。使用动态血糖仪(SIBIONICS)连续监测原发性糖尿病患者14天的每日血糖水平:结果:通过对整个基因外显子的突变筛查,在该患者及其母亲体内发现了 KCNJ11(c.101G > A, p.R34H)杂合子突变。使用野生型和突变型质粒转染 MIN6 后进行的基于细胞的 GSIS 检测显示,该突变损害了胰岛素分泌功能。此外,我们还发现这种分泌功能受损与突变体 KCNJ11 蛋白的功能活性降低以及胰岛素分泌相关外泌蛋白 STXBP1 和 SNAP25 的表达减少有关:我们首次揭示了KCNJ11(c.101G > A, p.R34H)与MODY13相关的致病机制。该突变体可导致 KATP 通道活性改变,降低对葡萄糖刺激的敏感性,并通过下调胰岛素分泌相关的外泌蛋白而损害胰岛β细胞的分泌功能。因此,口服磺脲类药物可通过促胰岛素作用降低血糖水平,对这种突变的患者更有利。

Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate the association of four surrogate indexes of IR with NASH in patients with obesity.

Methods: A total of 270 patients who underwent bariatric surgery, were included in this cross-sectional study. NASH was diagnosed based on liver biopsies. Binary logistics regression analyses were performed to assess the associations of four surrogate indexes of IR (HOMA-IR, Matsuda index, TyG, and TG/HDL-C) with NASH in patients with obesity. The restricted cubic spline was used to assess the dose-response associations of surrogate indexes of IR with NASH after adjusting for confounding factors.

Results: NASH was diagnosed in 136 patients, with a prevalence of 50.37%. Compared with tertile 1, the fully adjusted ORs (95% CIs) of NASH for tertile 3 were 2.711(1.113-6.608) and 0.297 (0.152-0.579) for TyG and Matsuda index. Consistently, per SD increment of TyG were still significantly associated with 64% increased risks of NASH, and per SD increment of Matsuda index were still significantly associated with 38% decreased risks of NASH. In contrast, no significant associations were found between HOMA-IR and TG/HDL-C and the risk of NASH in patients with obesity (all P > 0.05). After adjusting covariates in restricted cubic splines, the risk of NASH decreased with the increment of Matsuda Index levels (P-nonlinear = 0.442, P-overall = 0.007) and with the decrement of TyG levels (P-nonlinear = 0.004, P-overall = 0.001).

Conclusions: In patients with obesity, TyG and Matsuda index were independently related to the risk of NASH after adjustment for traditional risk factors. In addition, compared with HOMA-IR and TG/HDL-C, the Matsuda index and TyG may be more suitable for NASH prediction in patients with obesity.

研究目的本研究旨在评估肥胖症患者 IR 的四项代用指标与 NASH 的相关性:这项横断面研究共纳入了 270 名接受减肥手术的患者。NASH是根据肝脏活检结果确诊的。通过二元物流回归分析,评估肥胖症患者体内四项IR代用指标(HOMA-IR、松田指数、TyG和TG/HDL-C)与NASH的相关性。在调整混杂因素后,使用限制性立方样条曲线评估IR代用指标与NASH的剂量-反应关系:结果:136 名患者确诊为 NASH,发病率为 50.37%。与三分层 1 相比,三分层 3 NASH 的完全调整 ORs(95% CI)为 2.711(1.113-6.608),TyG 和松田指数为 0.297(0.152-0.579)。一致的是,TyG 每标准差增加仍与 NASH 风险增加 64% 显著相关,而松田指数每标准差增加仍与 NASH 风险降低 38% 显著相关。相比之下,HOMA-IR和TG/HDL-C与肥胖患者罹患NASH的风险无明显相关性(P均>0.05)。在限制性三次样板中调整协变量后,NASH风险随松田指数水平的增加而降低(P-非线性=0.442,P-总体=0.007),随TyG水平的降低而降低(P-非线性=0.004,P-总体=0.001):结论:在对传统风险因素进行调整后,肥胖症患者的TyG和松田指数与NASH风险独立相关。此外,与HOMA-IR和TG/HDL-C相比,松田指数和TyG可能更适合预测肥胖症患者的NASH。

Introduction: Diabetes and neuronal loss in the hippocampus have been observed to be correlated in several studies; however, the exact causality of this association remains uncertain. This study aims to explore the potential causal relationship between diabetes and the hippocampal nervous system.

Methods: We utilized the two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate the potential causal connection between diabetes and the hippocampal nervous system. The summary statistics of Genome-wide association study (GWAS) for diabetes and hippocampus neuroimaging measurement were acquired from published GWASs, all of which were based on European ancestry. Several two-sample MR analyses were conducted in this study, utilizing inverse-variance weighted (IVW), MR Egger, and Weight-median methods. To ensure the reliability of the results and identify any horizontal pleiotropy, sensitivity analyses were undertaken using Cochran's Q test and the MR-PRESSO global test.

Results: Causal associations were found between diabetes and the nervous system in the hippocampus. Type 1 and type 2 diabetes were both identified as having adverse causal connections with the right hippocampal nervous system. This was supported by specific ranges of IVW-OR values (P < 0.05). The consistency of the sensitivity analyses further reinforced the main findings, revealing no significant heterogeneity or presence of horizontal pleiotropy.

Conclusions: This study delved into the causal associations between diabetes and the hippocampal nervous system, revealing that both type 1 and type 2 diabetes have detrimental effects on the right hippocampal nervous system. Our findings have significant clinical implications as they indicate that diabetes may play a role in the decline of neurons in the right hippocampus among European populations, often resulting in cognitive decline.

引言多项研究发现,糖尿病与海马神经元的缺失存在相关性;然而,这种相关性的确切因果关系仍不确定。本研究旨在探讨糖尿病与海马神经系统之间的潜在因果关系:我们利用双样本孟德尔随机分析法(MR)研究糖尿病与海马神经系统之间的潜在因果关系。我们从已发表的全基因组关联研究(GWAS)中获取了糖尿病和海马神经影像测量的汇总统计数据,这些数据均基于欧洲血统。本研究采用反方差加权法(IVW)、MR Egger 法和权重中值法进行了多项双样本 MR 分析。为确保结果的可靠性并确定是否存在横向多效性,使用科克伦 Q 检验和 MR-PRESSO 全局检验进行了敏感性分析:结果:糖尿病与海马神经系统之间存在因果关系。1型和2型糖尿病均被认定与右侧海马神经系统有不利的因果关系。IVW-OR值的特定范围(P 结论)证实了这一点:本研究深入探讨了糖尿病与海马神经系统之间的因果关系,发现 1 型和 2 型糖尿病都会对右侧海马神经系统产生不利影响。我们的研究结果具有重要的临床意义,因为它们表明,在欧洲人群中,糖尿病可能是导致右侧海马神经元衰退的原因之一,而这种衰退往往会导致认知能力下降。

Purpose: To explore the relationship between glucose management indicator (GMI) and HbA1c and find the affecting factors in adult T2D patients with good glycemic control.

Methods: Adult T2D patients with both HbA1c < 7% and time in range (TIR) > 70% were retrospectively analyzed. A significant difference between GMI and HbA1c was defined as an absolute value of hemoglobin glycation index (|HGI|, HbA1c minus GMI) ≥ 0.5%. Factors associated with high |HGI| were determined by logistic regression analysis. The performance of possible factors in predicting high |HGI| was verified by ROC curve analysis. And the linear relationship between GMI and HbA1c was also investigated.

Results: Of all the 94 patients (median HbA1c 6.18%, mean GMI 6.34%) included, 28.72% had an |HGI | ≥ 0.5% and only 15.96% had an |HGI | < 0.1%. Standard deviation of blood glucose (SDBG), a glycemic variability index, affected |HGI| (OR = 3.980, P = 0.001), and showed the best performance in predicting high |HGI| (AUC = 0.712, cutoff value = 1.63 mmol/L, P = 0.001). HbA1c was linearly correlated with GMI (β = 0.295, P = 0.004). Their correlation weakened after further adjusting for SDBG (β = 0.232, P = 0.012). Linear correlation between them was closer in patients with smaller SDBG ( < 1.63 mmol/L) than those with larger SDBG (P = 0.004).

Conclusions: Even in adult T2D patients with good glycemic control, the discrepancy between GMI and HbA1c existed. Their relationship was affected by glycemic variability. SDBG mainly accounted for this consequence.

目的:探讨血糖管理指标(GMI)与 HbA1c 的关系,并找出血糖控制良好的成年 T2D 患者的影响因素:对 HbA1c 均为 70% 的成年 T2D 患者进行回顾性分析。血红蛋白糖化指数(|HGI|,HbA1c 减去血红蛋白糖化指数)的绝对值≥ 0.5%即为血红蛋白糖化指数与 HbA1c 之间存在明显差异。通过逻辑回归分析确定了与高|HGI|相关的因素。通过 ROC 曲线分析验证了可能的因素在预测高 HGI 方面的性能。此外,还研究了 GMI 与 HbA1c 之间的线性关系:结果:在纳入的所有 94 名患者(中位数 HbA1c 6.18%,平均 GMI 6.34%)中,28.72% 的患者 HGI ≥ 0.5%,只有 15.96% 的患者 HGI ≥ 0.5%:即使在血糖控制良好的成年 T2D 患者中,GMI 和 HbA1c 之间也存在差异。它们之间的关系受到血糖变化的影响。SDBG是造成这一结果的主要原因:中国临床试验注册中心 ( www.chictr.org.cn ), ChiCTR2000034884, 2020-07-23.

Purpose: An improvement in iodine status in the Veneto region (Italy) in the last decade has been documented. Our aim was to estimate the incidence of autoimmune thyroiditis (AT) in this region over the period 2012-2022.

Methods: A retrospective population-based study conducted in Veneto using the population registry and administrative health databases. We documented incident hyperthyroidism from 2013 to 2022 to exclude prevalent cases and calculated standardised incidence rates (IR) per 10,000 person-years by age and sex.

Results: We identified 65,379 incident cases (IR: 13.38), 5.44-fold higher in females than in males. IR decreased from 15.86 (95% CI: 15.50, 16.21) in 2013 to 12.35 (95% CI: 12.04, 12.67) in 2022. The decline was evident only in females, with a documented reduction in IR from 27.26 (95% CI: 26.61, 27.91) in 2013 to 20.49 (95% CI: 19.92, 21.07) in 2022 (P = 0.002). The decrease was sharper in females aged 15-54 years (IR from 37.86 (95%CI: 36.79, 38.94) in 2013 to 27.40 (95% CI: 26.44, 28.36) in 2022; P < 0.001) than in those aged ≥55 years (IR from 20.06 (95% CI: 19.13, 20.99) in 2013 to 16.56 (95% CI: 15.78, 17.35) in 2022; P = 0.034). In 2020, an out-of-trend decrease in AT incidence was documented, corresponding with the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, with a realignment to the trend in the subsequent years.

Conclusions: A decline in AT was documented in the Veneto region in the last decade, paralleling improvement in the iodine status. The reduction was significant only among females, particularly in reproductive age.

目的:过去十年中,威尼托大区(意大利)的碘状况有所改善。我们的目的是估算2012-2022年间该地区自身免疫性甲状腺炎(AT)的发病率:在威尼托进行的一项基于人口的回顾性研究使用了人口登记和行政健康数据库。我们记录了2013年至2022年期间发生的甲状腺机能亢进症,排除了流行病例,并按年龄和性别计算了每万人年的标准化发病率(IR):我们发现了65379例发病病例(IR:13.38),女性发病率是男性的5.44倍。IR从2013年的15.86(95% CI:15.50,16.21)下降到2022年的12.35(95% CI:12.04,12.67)。只有女性的 IR 下降明显,从 2013 年的 27.26(95% CI:26.61, 27.91)下降到 2022 年的 20.49(95% CI:19.92, 21.07)(P = 0.002)。15-54 岁女性的下降幅度更大(IR 从 2013 年的 37.86(95%CI:36.79, 38.94)下降到 2022 年的 27.40(95%CI:26.44, 28.36);P 结论:过去十年中,威尼托大区的甲状腺肿大有所下降,同时碘状况也有所改善。只有女性,尤其是育龄女性的碘摄入量明显下降。

Objective: This study aims to investigate the role of TRAb in the angiogenesis associated with Graves' disease (GD) and to elucidate its underlying mechanisms.

Methods: Human thyroid follicular epithelial cells (Nthy-ori 3-1) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with the monoclonal thyroid-stimulating antibody M22 and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) at various concentrations. Cell viability, migration, and tube formation were evaluated using CCK-8, wound healing, and tube formation assays, respectively. Protein expressions of TSHR receptor (TSHR) and phosphorylated AKT (p-AKT) in M22-induced HUVECs were quantified via Western blotting. Proteomic analysis was employed to identify changes in protein expression profiles and relevant signaling pathways in GD specimens. Immunofluorescence assays were conducted to detect and localize the expressions of CD34 and PROX1 in GD specimens and normal thyroid tissues.

Results: M22 stimulated the proliferation of Nthy-ori 3-1 cells and HUVECs in a dose-dependent manner, while TSH exhibited an inverted U-shaped dose-response effect. M22 also dose-dependently promoted angiogenesis, and more effectively induced tube formation in HUVECs compared to TSH, although the difference was not statistically significant. A total of 16 proteins were significantly upregulated and 24 were downregulated in M22-induced HUVECs. Notably, PROX1, the most significantly upregulated protein, is closely associated with angiogenesis. Immunofluorescence confirmed that PROX1 was significantly more expressed in thyroid tissues from GD patients compared to normal tissues adjacent to papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), and it co-localized with CD34.

Conclusion: TRAb enhances angiogenesis and upregulates PROX1 expression in HUVECs, suggesting a novel possible mechanism for goiter formation in GD.

研究目的方法:用不同浓度的单克隆促甲状腺抗体M22和促甲状腺激素(TSH)处理人甲状腺滤泡上皮细胞(Nthy-ori 3-1)和人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVECs)。分别使用 CCK-8、伤口愈合和管形成试验评估细胞活力、迁移和管形成。通过 Western 印迹对 M22 诱导的 HUVEC 中 TSHR 受体(TSHR)和磷酸化 AKT(p-AKT)的蛋白表达进行量化。蛋白质组分析用于确定广东样本中蛋白质表达谱的变化和相关信号通路。免疫荧光试验检测了CD34和PROX1在GD标本和正常甲状腺组织中的表达:结果:M22以剂量依赖的方式刺激Nthy-ori 3-1细胞和HUVEC的增殖,而TSH表现出倒U形的剂量反应效应。M22 对血管生成也有剂量依赖性的促进作用,与 TSH 相比,M22 能更有效地诱导 HUVECs 中血管管的形成,但差异无统计学意义。在 M22 诱导的 HUVECs 中,共有 16 种蛋白质被显著上调,24 种被下调。值得注意的是,上调最明显的蛋白 PROX1 与血管生成密切相关。免疫荧光证实,与邻近甲状腺乳头状癌(PTC)的正常组织相比,PROX1在GD患者甲状腺组织中的表达明显增加,并且与CD34共定位:结论:TRAb可促进血管生成并上调HUVECs中PROX1的表达,这可能是GD患者甲状腺肿形成的一种新机制。

Hypothyroidism is typically treated with levothyroxine monotherapy. However, despite normalized serum thyroid-stimulating hormone levels, 5-10% of patients continue to experience persistent symptoms, raising concerns about the adequacy of thyroxine monotherapy. Combination therapy with levothyroxine and liothyronine has been proposed as an alternative, but it presents practical challenges, including dosing complexity, the short half-life of triiodothyronine, increased monitoring requirements, and potential adverse effects. Moreover, there is no clear consensus within the medical community regarding the superiority of combination therapy over levothyroxine monotherapy, although some studies indicate potential benefits in specific patient populations. Genetic factors, such as polymorphisms in the DIO2 gene, may influence individual responses to therapy, further complicating treatment. To address the limitations of combination therapy, we propose a novel approach: TTCombo. This digital health technology delivers personalized doses of levothyroxine and liothyronine, improving treatment adherence and optimizing outcomes. By providing individualized, physiologically tailored hormone replacement, TTCombo has the potential to revolutionize hypothyroidism management and enhance patient quality of life.

甲状腺功能减退症通常采用左甲状腺素单药治疗。然而,尽管血清促甲状腺激素水平已恢复正常,但仍有5%-10%的患者症状持续存在,这不禁让人担心甲状腺素单一疗法是否足够。有人提出用左甲状腺素和利奥甲状腺原氨酸联合治疗作为替代方案,但这一方案面临着实际挑战,包括用药复杂、三碘甲状腺原氨酸半衰期短、监测要求增加以及潜在的不良反应。此外,虽然一些研究表明联合疗法对特定患者群体有潜在益处,但对于联合疗法是否优于左甲状腺素单药疗法,医学界尚未达成明确共识。遗传因素(如 DIO2 基因的多态性)可能会影响个体对治疗的反应,从而使治疗更加复杂。为了解决联合疗法的局限性,我们提出了一种新方法:TTCombo。这种数字健康技术可提供个性化剂量的左甲状腺素和甲状腺原氨酸,从而提高治疗依从性并优化治疗效果。TTCombo 可提供个性化、符合生理特点的激素替代品,有望彻底改变甲状腺功能减退症的治疗方法,提高患者的生活质量。

Background: The types of growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenomas are diverse, we have found that there are significant differences in clinical features and prognosis between PIT-1 single-cell spectrum growth hormone adenomas and growth hormone phenotypic polyhormonal adenomas.

Methods: This study examined a cohort of 193 patients with growth hormone-secreting pituitary adenoma (GHPA), stratifying them into two groups: PIT-1 single transcription factor positive growth hormone adenoma (STF-GHPA) and Multiple transcription factor-positive growth hormone-secreting adenomas (MTF-GHPA). The objective was to compare these two groups' clinical characteristics. Within the MTF-GHPA group, we further subtyped them based on transcription factors to evaluate potential variations in clinical manifestations. Logistic regression analyses were employed to develop a risk factor model for investigating factors influencing hormone remission.

Results: There were no statistically significant differences in terms of age, gender, serum GH, and IGF-1 levels between patients diagnosed with MTF-GHPA and STF-GHPA. However, patients with MTF-GHPA exhibited a higher proportion of hypopituitarism compared to those with STF-GHPA. Furthermore, MTF-GHPA were characterized by smaller tumor size and less invasiveness, as indicated by lower Knosp classes. However, patients with MTF-GHPA have a lower rate of hormonal remission (30.8%) and more postoperative complications (31.0%), which means that STF-GHPA (hormonal remission:71.6%; postoperative complications:13.4%) has a better endocrine outcome than MTF-GHPA patients. Between the PIT-1 + SF-1+ and PIT-1 + TPIT+ subtypes within MTF-GHPA, significant differences were also observed in tumor size, endocrine outcomes, and postoperative complications. Risk factors influencing hormonal remission for GHPA included preoperative GH level, primary/recurrent, extent of resection, and transcription factor expression.

Conclusion: Co-expression of multiple transcription factors is an important factor associated with clinical behavior and endocrine outcomes in patients with GHPA.

背景:分泌生长激素的垂体腺瘤类型多种多样,我们发现PIT-1单细胞谱生长激素腺瘤与生长激素表型多激素腺瘤在临床特征和预后方面存在显著差异:本研究对193例生长激素分泌型垂体腺瘤(GHPA)患者进行了研究,将其分为两组:PIT-1单转录因子阳性生长激素腺瘤(STF-GHPA)和多转录因子阳性生长激素分泌腺瘤(MTF-GHPA)。目的是比较这两组肿瘤的临床特征。在 MTF-GHPA 组中,我们根据转录因子对其进行了进一步细分,以评估临床表现的潜在差异。我们采用逻辑回归分析建立了一个风险因素模型,用于研究影响激素缓解的因素:结果:被诊断为MTF-GHPA和STF-GHPA的患者在年龄、性别、血清GH和IGF-1水平方面均无统计学差异。然而,与 STF-GHPA 患者相比,MTF-GHPA 患者垂体功能减退的比例更高。此外,MTF-GHPA 的特点是肿瘤体积较小,侵袭性较低,Knosp 分级也较低。然而,MTF-GHPA 患者的激素缓解率较低(30.8%),术后并发症较多(31.0%),这意味着 STF-GHPA (激素缓解率:71.6%;术后并发症:13.4%)的内分泌疗效优于 MTF-GHPA 患者。在MTF-GHPA中的PIT-1 + SF-1+亚型和PIT-1 + TPIT+亚型之间,肿瘤大小、内分泌疗效和术后并发症也存在显著差异。影响GHPA激素缓解的风险因素包括术前GH水平、原发性/复发性、切除范围和转录因子表达:结论:多种转录因子的共同表达是与GHPA患者临床表现和内分泌结果相关的重要因素。

Furthermore, MTF-GHPA were characterized by smaller tumor size and less invasiveness, as indicated by lower Knosp classes. However, patients with MTF-GHPA have a lower rate of hormonal remission (30.8%) and more postoperative complications (31.0%), which means that STF-GHPA (hormonal remission:71.6%; postoperative complications:13.4%) has a better endocrine outcome than MTF-GHPA patients.
