Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of children with atopic dermatitis (AD) and the changes in serum levels of apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1), 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and eosinophil derived neurotoxin (EDN).Methods:200 children with AD treated in Zhuzhou Central Hospital from January 2016 to December 2019 were selected retrospectively as AD group and 100 healthy children as control group. The clinical characteristics of children with AD were analyzed, and the differences in serum Apo A1, 25 (OH)D and EDN levels between two groups were compared. The relationships between serum Apo A1, 25(OH)D, EDN levels and severity of AD were explored.Results:The male to female composition ratio of 200 AD patients was 1.41∶1, and the age of onset <3 months was the highest (64.50%). Inhalation allergens were detected in 118 cases (59.00%) and ingestion allergens in 82 cases (41.00%). The levels of Apo A1 and EDN in AD group were significantly higher than those in control group, while the level of 25(OH)D was significantly lower than that in control group ( P<0.05). With the aggravation of the disease, the serum Apo A1 and EDN levels in AD children increased gradually, while the serum 25(OH)D level decreased significantly (all P<0.05). Severity Scoring of Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) was positively correlated with Apo A1 and EDN levels ( P<0.05), and was negatively correlated with 25(OH)D level (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Apo A1, 25 (OH)D and EDN are involved in the pathogenesis of AD in children, and their serum levels are closely related to the severity of AD.
