Objective To explore the related risk factors of severe mycoplasma pneumonia in children.Methods 86 children with mycoplasma pneumonia were selected as the observation group.At the same time,30 normal children were selected as the control group.The observation group included 33 cases of mild mycoplasma pneumo nia(A group) and 53 cases of severe mycoplasma pneumonia(B group).The clinical data of the three groups were ret rospectively analyzed,and the related risk factors of severe mycoplasma pneumonia in children were analyzed.Results The risk factors of severe mycoplasma pneumonia in children were age ＞ 5 years (x2 =28.776,P ＜ 0.05),immunoglobulin IgG(x2 =3.004,P ＜ 0.05),immunoglobulin IgM (x2 =2.147,P ＜ 0.05),immunoglobulin IgA (x2 =2.036,P ＜ 0.05),WBC (x2 =6.119,P ＜ 0.05),neutrophil percentage (x2 =8.374,P ＜ 0.05),the positive rate of CD8(x2 =11.665,P＜0.05),the positive rate of CD4(x2 =12.901,P＜0.05).Conclusion For children with risk factors of severe mycoplasma pneumonia should be early diagnosed,prevented and treated,thereby reducing the burden on patients.

Objective To study the prognosis of infants with bronchiolitis by testing urine leukotriene E4 (LTE4) level and investigating atopy's influences. Methods Urine LTE4 was tested in 38 eases with mild bronchiolitis (47 in acute stage, 17 in convalescent stage), 9 severe bronchiolitis cases, 15 atopic cases, 25 control cases. Peripheral blood was used to determine eosinophils count (EC) in acute bronchiolitis cases. Results (1) The level of urine LTE4 is obviously higher in cases of acute group (62.11 ± 12.23 pmol/L) than that of control group (22.19±1.50 pmol/L) , and the convalescent group (34.86 ±5.75 pmol/L) (F = 132.42, P < 0.01) ;Urine LTE4 level of convalescent group is higher than that of the control group (P < 0.01). (2) Urine LTE4 level is significantly higher in severe group (98.04 ± 8.04 pmol/L) than that of mild group (59.16 ± 12.25 pmol/L) (t = 9.92, P < 0.01). (3) Urine LTE4 level of atopy positive (88.75 ± 10.45 pmol/L) infants with bronchiolitis is significantly higher than atopy negative infants (55.28 ± 11.44 pmol/L)(t = 8.63, P < 0.01). (4) There is no significant correlation between the levels of urine LTE4 and EC for acute bronchiolitis. Condusions The level of urine LTE4 in acute bronehiolitis patients increases and remains high in convalescent stage;Higher urine LTE4 level in severe bronchiolitis cases indicates that urine LTE4 level is related to the severity of the disease;cysteinylleukotrenes is an important mediator of inflammation that may influence the prognosis of atopy positive infants with bronchiolitis;EC is not a good index to present the airway inflammation of infants with bronehiolitis.

Objective To investigate the effects of virus coinfection on the severity of respiratory syncytial virus(RSV)bronchiolitis through the clinical analysis of 286 cases.Methods Various virus antibody were measured by using ELISA in 286 cases of RSV bronchiolitis.The frequency of respiratory virus coinfection on the severity of RSV bronchiolitis was observed.Results RSV bronchiolitis complicated with virus coinfection ratio reached 29.37%,especially with the double infection.Compared to patients with RSV infection,the severe cases increased sig-nificantly in patients with virus coinfection(χ2 =128.7,P<0.01).Conclusion Other respiratory viruses coinfection are not uncommon in infants with RSV bronchiolitis and may increase the severity of RSV bronchiolitis.
