Objective:To detect the levels of PA,FN,RBP,CRP,Iron,Zinc,VitD in peripheral blood of children with HFMD and to explore the relationship between them and the disease .Methods:The levels of PA,FN,RBP and CRP were detected by immune turbidimetric assay;and the levels of Iron and Zinc were detected by flame atomic absorption spectrometry ;while the levels of VitD were detected by electro chemilumin escence .Results:The levels of PA,FN,RBP,Iron,Zinc and VitD in the severe group were lower than those in other groups ,while the levels of CRP were higher than those in other groups ( P<0.05 );and the levels of PA ,FN and RBP in the general group were lower than that in the control group , while the levels of CRP were higher than that in the control group ( P<0.05 ) .And no significance were found of the levels of Iron ,Zinc and VitD in the general group and the control group ( P>0.05 ) .The levels of PA,FN,RBP,Fe,Zn and VitD in the convalescence were higher than those in the acute phase of the severe cases (P<0.01), and lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05 );And no statistical significance were found of the levels of CRP between the convalescent phase of severe cases and the control group (P>0.05).There were negative correlation between the levels of PA ,FN,RBP and the state of HFMD(P<0.05),while there were positive correlation between the levels of CRP and the state of HFMD (P<0.05). And there were low negative correlation between the levels of Iron , Zinc, VitD and the state of HFMD ( P <0.05 ), respectively.Conclusion:There were nutritional deficiency in severe cases of HFMD ,and the nutritional status should be assessed dy-namically,then proper amount of nutrition should be supplement .

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of T2 *mapping T2 *value combined with DWI ADC value in quantitative assessment of the activity of sacroiliitis.Methods 30 patients diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis (AS)were divided into 2 groups as acute group (n=17)and chronic group (n=13)according to the BASDAI scores of the clinical severity of disease.And 20 healthy adults were recruited as control group.All groups were examined by MR with traditional sequence,T2 *mapping and DWI in the sacroiliac joint.The T2 *value and ADC value of the bone marrow edema region and normal region were measured.Furthermore,the imaging data and the clinical scores were statistical analysis and compared among three groups.Results T2 *values and ADC values in acute group of AS patients were higher than chronic group (P<0.05),as well as compared with healthy volunteers (P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the chronic group of AS patients and control group (P>0.05).Positive correlation between ADC value and BASDAI was observed in patients group.Conclusion T2 *mapping combined with DWI imaging in AS is beneficial for early diagnosis and quantitative analysis of the activity of sacroiliitis.
