Objective To understand the underlying mechanism of mites-induced pediatric asthma by bioinformatic analysis on speciifc microRNA (miRNA) array and target gene screening. Methods This is a case control study of 62 pairs of dust mites-induced asthma children with age and gender matched healthy controls. Twelve pairs were randomly selected for miRNA array. The abnormal expression of miRNAs was compared between asthma and control children. The results were validated by RT-qPCR and bioinformatic analysis in remaining pairs of children. Results Six miRNAs (miRNA-151a-5p, 625-5p, 126-3p, 513a-5p, 27b-3p, 22-3p) were signiifcantly down-regulated more than two folds in dust mites-induced asthma children than those in controls. The enriched bioinformatics analysis showed that these miRNAs and their target genes CBL, PPARGC1B, ESR1, ONECUT2, EGFR, SYK, and STAT1 were related to inlfammatory cytokine signaling pathway. Conclusion It is suggested that miR-22-3p, 513a-5p, 625-5p, 27b-3p, and miRNA-target genes form a network through co-regulation to target genes to participate dust mites-induced asthma in children.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy of a new type of "firebreak" drainage with skin preservation in the treatment of Fournier's gangrene.Methods:This technique is suitable for patients with perianal necrotizing fasciitis who can tolerate surgery without large area of skin blackness and necrosis. Procedure and key points: (1) The dividing line between inflammatory tissue and normal tissue was determined according to imaging examination and intraoperative exploration; (2) The abscess cavity was cut along the most obvious part of the abscess fluctuation, with a long diameter of 3~4 cm and a short diameter of 1~2 cm; (3) Necrotic tissue was discreetly separated and removed from the main incision to the outer edge of the infection. A fusiform incision was made every 3 to 5 cm, with a long diameter of 2 to 3 cm and a short diameter of 1 cm, and discreetly separated until the normal tissue, and a hose was hung between the adjacent incisions for drainage. (4) Each adjacent edge cut between the stealth separation and hanging hose drainage, forming a "firebreak"; (5) Rinse the wound repeatedly; (6) If the infection invades the rectum, colostomy is performed as required. The case data of 11 patients with perianal necrotizing fasciitis admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from July 2019 to February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with emergency surgical debridement by "firebreak" drainage with skin preservation.Results:All 11 cases were cured with 100%. One case underwent multiple operations. The hospitalization time was 11-46 days, with an average of 22 days. The wound healing time was 28-75 days, with an average of 43 days. Except for 1 patient with trauma, all the other patients had no significant anal function injury after surgery. All the 11 patients recovered and were discharged from hospital with a median follow-up of 136 (115-413) days.Conclusions:The "firebreak" drainage based on skin preservation has the advantages of less trauma and faster recovery, and do not cause obvious anal function damage.
