Objective To explore the clinical application value of the detection of sIgE and sIgG4 in children with allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis .Methods The levels of sIgE and sIgG4 of allergic asthma group (n=85) ,allergic rhinitis group (n=72) and control group (n=60) were respectively detected by ELISA .The diagnostic efficiency of sIgE and sIgG4 were analyzed by using ROC curve .Results Before treatment ,the serum levels of sIgE and sIgG4 of allergic asthma group and allergic rhinitis group were remarkably higher than those of control group (P< 0 .01) .After 6 -month treatment ,the serum sIgE levels of allergic asthma group and allergic rhinitis group significantly decreased ,and the serum sIgG4 levels significantly increased (P< 0 .01) .For the combined detection of sIgE and sIgG4 ,the diagnostic sensitivities of allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis were 90 .6% (77/85) and 84 .7% (61/72) respectively ,and the diagnostic specificities of allergic asthma and allergic rhinitis were 81 .2% (69/85) and 76 .4%(55/72) respectively .Conclusion The serum sIgE and sIgG4 are good indicators for the diagnosis of allergic diseases .

Objective To explore the role of chemokine CCL18 in the occurrence and development of children allergic diseases. Methods The serum levels of CCL18 in 87 children cases of allergic asthma,64 cases of allergic rhinitis,46 cases of allergic con-junctivitis and contemporaneous 50 health students with physical examination as the control group were measured by ELISA and re-measured after 6-month treatment.The detection results were statistically analyzed with combining the clinical related detection data by adopting SPSS18.0 statistical software and t-test.Results The serum levels of CCL18 in the children allergic asthma,allergic rhinitis and allergic conjunctivitis groups were remarkably higher than those in the control group with statistical differences(P <0.05);the levels of CCL18 in the severe groups were remarkably higher than those in the mild and moderate groups with statistical difference(P <0.05);the levels of CCL18 after 6-month treatment in 3 groups were significantly decreased compared with before treatment with statistical difference(P <0.05).Conclusion The serum level of CCL18 is significantly associated with the severity of illness and significantly decreased after treatment,which indicating that the CCL18 detection has the important value in the diag-nosis,severity evaluation and treatment effect monitoring of children allergic diseases.

Objective To explore the relationship between hemoglobin (Hb) level during the first trimester of pregnancy and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods A total of 1 276 participants, who underwent scheduled prenatal examination and normal singleton delivery at the Fifth People′s Hospital of Shanghai and Hospital of Intergrated Chinese and Western Medicine in Minhang District, from January 2016 to May 2018 were included. There were 99 cases of GDM (GDM group) and 1 177 cases of normal (control group) pregnant women.Based on the serum Hb level during the first trimester of pregnancy, participants were divided into three groups, 236 cases of low Hb level group (Hb<110 g/L), 868 cases of normal Hb level group (110 g/L≤Hb<130 g/L), and 172 cases of high Hb level group (Hb≥130 g/L). Maternal clinical data were collected, including Hb level during the first trimester of pregnancy, three-point blood glucose (BG) of oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and fasting insulin during the second trimester of pregnancy. Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and homeostasis model assessment of pancreatic β cell function index (HOMA-β) were used to evaluate insulin resistance and pancreatic β cell function. Results (1) Hb level during the first trimester of pregnancy in GDM group was significantly higher than that in control group [(123±10),(119±11) g/L, P<0.05]. There were no significant difference in gravidity, parity, index of liver and renal function (all P>0.05). (2) Pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), 1-hour BG and 2-hour BG of OGTT were significantly increased in the high Hb level group during the first trimester of pregnancy, which were (23±4) kg/m2, (7.3±2.0) mmol/L, and (6.5±1.4) mmol/L (P<0.05), respectively. The pre-pregnancy BMI, 1-hour BG and 2-hour BG of the normal or low Hb level group were (22±3) kg/m2, (6.7±1.6) mmol/L, (6.1± 1.2) mmol/L; (22±3) kg/m2, (6.5±1.5) mmol/L, (5.9±1.1) mmol/L, respectively. There were no statistically significant difference in levels of fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, HOMA-IR and HOMA-β within 3 groups (all P>0.05). (3) In the high Hb level group, prevalence of pregnancy overweight or obesity and GDM were the highest, which were 37.2%(64/172) and 15.1%(26/172), respectively; the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). (4) The serum Hb level in the first trimester was positively related with pre-pregnancy BMI (r=0.130, P<0.05), 1-hour BG (r=0.129, P<0.05), 2-hour BG (r=0.134, P<0.05), fasting insulin (r=0.096, P<0.05), and HOMA-IR (r=0.101, P<0.05).Logistic regression indicated that Hb≥130 g/L during the first trimester of pregnancy was an independent risk factor for GDM ( OR=2.799, 95% CI :1.186-6.604; P<0.05). Conclusion The high level of Hb (Hb≥130 g/L) during the first trimester of pregnancy is associated with GDM.
