ObjectiveTo observe the dynamics of antibodies and protection against Schistosoma japonicum infections in buffaloes after immunized with recombinant 26 kDa glutathione S transferase (reSjc26GST). Methods Buffaloes in 2 villages endemic for schistosomiasis japonica were selected as test and control groups, respectively.In test group initially 96 buffaloes were vaccinated with reSjc26GST, and 90 buffaloes in the control group did not experience vaccination. The indicators included levels of antibodies to reSjc26GST in buffaloes before and after infection with S japonicum and changes in infection rate. Results Specific antibodies, which showed a trend of trapezoid increase, were induced in buffaloes after immunized with reSjc26GST. Twenty months after immunization, the infection rate of the test group was decreased by 62 2% when compared with that before vaccination,and by 67 7% when compared with that of the control in the corresponding period.Conclusion Specific antibodies and a certain extent of protection were induced in buffaloes after immunized with reSjc26GST, which played an significant role in ameliorating morbidity.

Objective:To explore the relationship of Vitamin A and Vitamin D with the incidence and severity of hand, foot and mouth disease(HFMD) as well as with the anti-viral immune index interferon-α(INF-α), and to investigate the role of Vitamin A and Vitamin D in HFMD.Methods:A total of 305 children with Coxsackie virus A6(CA6) HFMD admitted at Xi′an Children′s Hospital from January 2017 to December 2018 were enrolled in the study.One hundred healthy children whose gender and age matched with those of children in the case group were selected as the healthy control group.Serum Vitamin A levels were detected by high performance liquid chromatography.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the levels of Vitamin D and IFN-α, and the correlation of the levels of Vitamin A and Vitamin D with the severity of HFMD was analyzed.Results:The levels of serum Vitamin A[(0.96±0.39) mg/mol] and Vitamin D [(42.14±15.13) μg/L] in patients with CA6 HFMD were lower than those of the healthy control group[(1.26±0.29) mg/mol, (49.63±8.86) μg/L], and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that WBC>15×10 9/L, blood sugar>8.3 mmol/L, the deficiency of Vitamin A level and Vitamin D level were all risk factors for severe CA6 HFMD in children( OR=2.303, 4.622, 7.346, 5.211; all P<0.05). According to the receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, the Youden index was the largest at a Vitamin A level of 0.725 mg/mol, and the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 82.0% and 64.8%, respectively.When Vitamin D level was 32.88 μg/L, the Youden index was the highest, and the sensitivity and specificity were 84.5% and 61.9%, respectively.The serum IFN-α concentration of patients with CA6 HFMD [(84.44±26.28) ng/L] was higher than that of the healthy control group [(36.58±14.39) ng/L], and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). In addition, the serum IFN-α concentration in severe HFMD children [(71.48±18.34) ng/L] was significantly lower than that in the common HFMD children [(91.25±27.27) ng/L], and the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05). The results of correlation analysis showed that serum IFN-α concentration is positively correlated with Vitamin A and Vitamin D levels ( r=0.783, 0.239; all P<0.001). Conclusions:The levels of serum Vitamin A and Vitamin D decreased in children with HFMD.WBC>15×10 9/L, blood sugar>8.3 mmol/L, the deficiency of Vitamin A level and Vitamin D level are related to severe HFMD.The se-rum IFN-α concentration is positively correlated with the levels of Vitamin A and Vitamin D. The deficiency of Vitamin A and Vitamin D is one of the early warning factors of severe HFMD.

Objective:To explore the effect of specialized games combined with bi-cardiac nursing on postoperative complications and caregivers′ emotions in children with hypospadias.Methods:A total of 100 children with hypospadias treated in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2018 were randomly divided into control group and experimental group, 50 cases in each group. The control group was given routine treatment and nursing. The experimental group was given specialized games combined with bi-cardiac nursing intervention. The incidence of complications after operation was compared between the two groups. Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) were used to test the main caregivers of the two groups before and after the intervention for 3 months respectively. At the same time, their satisfaction was compared after the intervention.Results:The incidence of complications was 10.00% (5/50) in the study group and 28.00% (14/50) in the control group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 5.263, P=0.022); after intervention, the scores of SAS and SDS of the caregivers in the study group were 23.35 ± 7.33, 37.06 ± 8.22 respectively, and those in the control group were 32.22 ± 6.70, 40.94 ± 8.95, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t values were 6.316, 2.258, all P<0.05); after the intervention, the satisfaction of the study group was 96.00%(48/50), and that of the control group was 84.00%(42/50). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 4.000, P=0.046). Conclusions:Specialized games combined with bi-centric nursing can reduce the incidence of complications after urethroplasty in children with hypospadias, alleviate the bad mood of the main caregivers and improve nursing satisfaction.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics, causes of misdiagnosis and preventive measures of infectious mononucleosis (IM) in children, and to improve the ability of clinicians in early diagnosis of IM in children.Methods:The clinical data of 468 children with IM in Xi′an Children′s Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including general situation, disease onset, diagnosis and misdiagnosis.Results:Among the 468 children, 33 cases were clinically diagnosed and 435 cases were a definitely diagnosed; 281 males (60.04%) and 187 females (39.96%); the incidence rate was highest in preschool children (43.80%, 205/468) and in autumn (33.12%, 155/468). The first symptoms were fever (52.99%, 248/468), eyelid edema (15.38%,72/468) and neck mass (14.96%, 70/468). The fever rate was 90.38% (423/468), and the median time of first fever appearance was on the first (first, second) day of disease course, and the median duration of fever was 6 (4, 8) d. The median time of first visit was on the third (first, fifth) day of disease course, and the time of diagnosis was on the seventh (fifth, ninth) day of disease course. Blood routine examination showed that the proportion of white blood cell count increased was 51.92% (243/468), the proportion of lymphocytes increased was 61.75% (289/468), and the proportion of abnormal lymphocytes increased (≥10%) in peripheral blood was 58.97% (276/468). The lymphocyte subsets of 364 children were detected, the rate of helper T lymphocytes (Th cells) decreased was 80.22% (292/364), the rate of suppressor T lymphocytes (Ts cells) increased was 99.45% (362/364), the value and decreased rate of Th cells/Ts cells were 0.24 (0.16, 0.40) and 100.00% (364/364), rate of B lymphocytes decreased was 93.96% (342/364), rates of natural killer cells decreased and increased were 35.16% (128/364) and 0.55% (2/364). The misdiagnosis rate was 55.13% (258/468), and the misdiagnosis time was on the fifth (fourth, seventh) day of disease course. Among the 258 misdiagnosed children, 105 cases (40.70%) were misdiagnosed as upper respiratory tract infection, 65 cases (25.19%) as acute suppurative tonsillitis, 27 cases (10.47%) as acute cervical lymphadenitis or neck mass.Conclusions:Due to the complex and diverse clinical manifestations of IM in children, it is easy to be misdiagnosed in the early stage of the disease. So, it is necessary for clinicians to master the clinical characteristics of IM in children, constantly improve the level of diagnosis and treatment, and reduce the misdiagnosis rate.

Objective:To investigate the changes of intestinal microecology in the early stage of sepsis rat model by 16S rDNA sequencing.Methods:Sixty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) group and sham operation group (Sham group), with 30 rats in each group. In the CLP group, sepsis rat model was reproduced by CLP method; the rats in the Sham group only underwent laparotomy without CLP. At 24 hours after the operation, the intestinal feces and serum samples of 8 rats in each group were collected. The survival rate of the rest rats was observed until the 7th day. The level of serum tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Intestinal feces were sequenced by 16S rDNA sequencing technology. The operational taxonomic unit (OTU) data obtained after sequence comparison and clustering was used for α diversity and β diversity analysis, principal coordinate analysis and linear discriminant analysis effect size analysis (LEfSe) to observe the changes of intestinal microecology in early sepsis rats and excavate the marker flora.Results:At 24 hours after the reproduction of the model, the rats in the CLP group showed shortness of breath, scattered hair and other manifestations, and the level of serum TNF-α increased significantly as compared with that in the Sham group (ng/L: 43.95±9.05 vs. 11.08±3.27, P < 0.01). On the 7th day after modeling, the cumulative survival rate of the Sham group was 100%, while that of the CLP group was 31.82%. Diversity analysis showed that there was no significant difference in α diversity parameter between the Sham group and the CLP group (number of species: 520.00±52.15 vs. 492.25±86.61, Chao1 richness estimator: 707.25±65.69 vs. 668.93±96.50, Shannon index: 5.74±0.42 vs. 5.79±0.91, Simpson index: 0.93±0.03 vs. 0.94±0.05, all P > 0.05). However, the β diversity analysis showed that the difference between groups was greater than that within groups whether weighted according to OTU or not (abundance weighted matrix: R = 0.23, P = 0.04; abundance unweighted matrix: R = 0.32, P = 0.01). At the phylum level, the abundance of Proteobacteria and Candidatus_sacchari in the CLP group increased significantly as compared with the Sham group [18.100% (15.271%, 26.665%) vs. 6.974% (2.854%, 9.764%), 0.125% (0.027%, 0.159%)% vs. 0.018% (0.008%, 0.021%), both P < 0.05]. At the genus level, the abundance of opportunistic pathogen including Helicobacter, Ruthenium, Streptococcus, Clostridium ⅩⅧ in the CLP group was significantly higher than that in the Sham group [5.090% (1.812%, 6.598%) vs. 0.083% (0.034%, 0.198%), 0.244% (0.116%, 0.330%) vs. 0.016% (0.008%, 0.029%), 0.006% (0.003%, 0.010%) vs. 0.001% (0%, 0.003%), 0.094% (0.035%, 0.430%) vs. 0.007% (0.003%, 0.030%), all P < 0.05], and the abundance of probiotics such as Alloprevotella and Romboustia was significantly lower than that in the Sham group [7.345% (3.662%, 11.546%) vs. 22.504% (14.403%, 26.928%), 0.113% (0.047%, 0.196%) vs. 1.229% (0.809%, 2.29%), both P < 0.01]. LEfSe analysis showed that the probiotics belonging to Firmicutes were significantly enriched in the Sham group, and Romboustia was the most significantly enriched species. Opportunistic pathogens such as Helicobacter, Streptococcus and Clostridium ⅩⅧ were significantly enriched in the CLP group, Helicobacter_NGSU_ 2015 was the most significantly enriched species. Conclusion:In the early stage of sepsis, the intestinal microbiota structure of rats is significantly changed, which mainly shows that the abundance of Alloprevotella and other probiotics is significantly reduced, while that of Helicobacter and other opportunistic pathogens is significantly increased.

Objective: To investigate the clinical value of plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in predicting the severity of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in children with coxsackie virus A6 (CV-A6) infection. Methods: A total of 305 children with CV-A6 type HFMD admitted to Xi′an Children′s Hospital from January 2017 to December 2018 were divided into general group (200 cases) and severe group (105 cases) according to the severity of the disease.The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to calculate the value of plasma BNP levels to predict the severe CV-A6 HFMD.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the related factors and the severity of CV-A6 HFMD. Results: Compared with the normal group, children in the severe group had statistically significant differences in WBC level, BNP level, neurological symptoms, circulatory disorders, and blood glucose levels(all P<0.05). The optimal cut-off value of the receiver operating characteristic curve for BNP level to predict severe HFMD was 294.85 ng/L.Multivariate logistic regression analysis found that WBC>15×10⁹/L, blood glucose> 8.3 mmol/L, and BNP>294.85 ng/L were related to the severity of CV-A6 HFMD(OR=2.275, P=0.013; OR=6.057, P=0.028; OR=1.008, P<0.001). Conclusion BNP>294.85 ng/L is closely related to the severity of CV-A6 HFMD and has predictive value.It is an early warning factor for the severity of CV-A6 HFMD.
