Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of intelligent medical treatment, in particular to a method, device, program product and computer readable storage medium for identifying intestinal rare diseases. BACKGROUND

[0002] Autoimmune enteropathy (AIE) is extremely rare, with a global incidence of less than 1 / 100,000, and adult cases are even rarer, with only more than 200 cases reported. Common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) is a primary immunodeficiency disease, and patients with CVID gastrointestinal involvement are also rare. Both misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis will lead to delayed treatment of patients, serious complications, and affect the quality of life and even endanger life. In addition to both having diarrhea, malabsorption and other digestive symptoms, AIE and CVID can also have systemic manifestations such as fever and electrolyte imbalance, and can also involve other systems, such as repeated infections and autoimmune diseases in CVID, and AIE can also have autoimmune-related involvement of other organs, which is difficult to distinguish from clinical features. Although there are intestinal epithelial cell autoantibodies and other indicators in the diagnosis of AIE, the absence of antibodies cannot rule out the disease. CVID is mainly based on the decrease of serum immunoglobulin level, but other diseases may also have similar conditions. There is currently a lack of specific diagnostic indicators and diagnostic processes for AIE patients and CVID patients with gastrointestinal involvement. SUMMARY

[0047] Figure 1A schematic diagram of the method for identifying rare intestinal diseases provided in this embodiment of the invention specifically includes:

[0048] S101: Obtain pathological data of the subject; the pathological data includes goblet cells, Paneth cells, neutrophils, and plasma cells;

[0049] The pathological data consisted of four duodenal indicators, taking into account abnormalities in epithelial cell subsets and immune cell subsets.

[0050] In one specific embodiment, a retrospective study was conducted on patients diagnosed with acute arterial disease (AIE) and patients with CVID gastrointestinal involvement who were hospitalized and treated at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between June 2012 and May 2024. The latter group presented with gastrointestinal symptoms and evidence of gastrointestinal involvement confirmed by gastrointestinal endoscopy. Demographic characteristics, symptoms, medical history, auxiliary examinations, endoscopic and histopathological features, and long-term prognostic information were collected from both groups. Chi-square test, Fisher's exact test, and Student's test were used to evaluate the prognostic and long-term outcomes of the patients. t Differences between the two patient groups were compared using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test. The sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing AIE and CVID based on four pathological indicators were calculated. Cut-off values ​​and areas under the curve (AUC) for the diagnostic indicators (immunoglobulin levels and duration of diarrhea) were calculated based on ROC curves. Finally, Kaplan-Meier survival curves for disease recurrence were plotted for both groups, and the log-rank test was performed.

[0079] In one embodiment, 26 AIE patients and 29 CVID patients with gastrointestinal involvement were enrolled. Compared with CVID patients with gastrointestinal involvement, AIE patients were older at diagnosis, had shorter duration of chronic diarrhea, more severe diarrhea, and more obvious weight loss, hypoalbuminemia and electrolyte disturbance. In addition, CVID patients with gastrointestinal involvement had a history of repeated respiratory tract infections, significantly decreased blood IgG, IgM and IgA levels, and significantly reduced B cell number in peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets, decreased CD4+T number and increased CD8+T number, and significantly inverted CD4+ / CD8. The cut-off value of blood IgG level for differentiating the two diseases was 5.265 g / L (the normal population reference range was 7-17), and the AUC was 0.989. Under endoscopy, most patients had small intestinal villus atrophy, and AIE patients were more likely to have duodenal erosion, hyperemia and other endoscopic active inflammatory manifestations. Further analysis of the histopathological features of 23 AIE and 24 CVID patients found that both had obvious shortening of small intestinal villi; compared with CVID, AIE patients had significant reduction or disappearance of goblet cells and Paneth cells, more obvious neutrophil infiltration, and more common apoptotic bodies; CVID patients had significant plasmacyte disappearance or reduction in the lamina propria and deep crypt of intestinal biopsy, and prominent lymphocyte infiltration in the deep crypt. In addition, most CVID patients had lymphoid follicles. In AIE and CVID patients with gastrointestinal involvement, the sensitivity of duodenal four pathological indicators for differentiating AIE was 96%, and the specificity was 100%. Long-term follow-up showed that patients of both diseases were prone to repeated episodes of diarrhea, and the median recurrence-free survival of CVID patients was slightly longer than that of AIE. AIE and CVID patients with gastrointestinal involvement both had small intestinal villus atrophy. Detailed history collection, targeted auxiliary examination, high-quality endoscopy and histopathological feature description provide a strong basis for the differential diagnosis of the two diseases.

[0080] In one embodiment, the present application statistically analyzes the clinical features, endoscopic features and pathological features of AIE and CVID, which are shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3, respectively.

Autoimmune enteropathy or common variant immunodeficiency disease is diagnosed based on the pathological data and second enteroendoscopic data. When goblet cells are less than a preset threshold, Paneth cells are less than a preset threshold, neutrophil infiltration is present, and duodenal erosion and / or congestion are present, it is diagnosed as autoimmune enteropathy. When the pathological data shows plasma cells less than a preset threshold and the duodenum is normal, it is diagnosed as common variant immunodeficiency disease.

39. The computer-readable storage medium according to claim 27, characterized in that, The determination of autoimmune enteropathy or common variant immunodeficiency disease also includes second clinical data. Autoimmune enteropathy or common variant immunodeficiency disease is determined by the pathological data and the second clinical data. When goblet cells are less than a preset threshold, Paneth cells are less than a preset threshold, neutrophil infiltration is present, and the duration of chronic diarrhea is less than a preset threshold, it is determined to be autoimmune enteropathy. When the pathological data shows that plasma cells are less than a preset threshold and the duration of chronic diarrhea is greater than a preset threshold, it is determined to be common variant immunodeficiency disease.
