Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral erythromycin in the prevention and treatment of feeding intolerance in preterm infants. Methods The Cochrane Library,PubMed,EMBASE,CBMdise,VIP,WartFang and CNKl were searched up to the year of 2008.Randomized controlled trials (RCT) of erythmmycin for feeding intolerance in preterm infants were included.According to the dosage (low-dose,3-15 mg/kg and high dose,>15 mg/kg)and gestational age(≤32 weeks vs>32 weeks),all infants were divided into several subgroups.Meta-analysis was performed with the Cochrane Collaboration's software RevMan. Results Nine RCrs involving 542 premature infants were included.(1)In preventive studies,low-dose erythromycin could significantly decrease the duration of total parenteral nutrition compared with the high-dose erythmmycin (WMD=-2.99,95%CI:-3.99--1.98).(2)Intreatment studies,highdose erythromycin could significantly decrease the duration of total parenteral nutrition (WMD=-7.06.95%CI:-7.91--6.20,P<0.01)and hospital stay (WMD=-8.10,95%CI:-14.02--2.18,P=0.007)compared with the placebo when gestational age≤32 weeks. Erythromydn could decrease the incidence of iaundice(RR=0.36,95%CI:0.21-0.63,P=0.0003)which might be the effect of bigh-dose erytromycin. Conclusions Compared with placebo,oral erythromycin of different dosage might help to achieve full enteral feeding,shorten the duration of parenteral nutrition and hospital stay,and reduce the associated cholestasis jaundice of preterm infants with different gestational age respectively.

Objective To explore the clinical manifestations, electroencephalographic characteristics and therapeutic effect of drugs in children with Jeavons syndrome. Methods The clinical and electroencephalographic characteristics and thera-peutic effect of drugs were analyzed in 4 children with Jeavons syndrome. Results Among the four children there were 3 female and 1 male. The age at the onset of the disease was from 1 to 6 years. The typical clinical manifestations of this disease were brief, fast and repeated eyelid myoclonia (EM) with or without absence seizure. The typical electroencephalography (EEG) in two patients showed 3-6 Hz generalized spike and waves and polyspikes burst, and the eye closure and intermittent photic stimu-lation helped to induce discharges and clinical events. The typictal EEG in the other two patients showed 3.0-3.5 Hz generalizedδslow wave rhythm burst. The drugs of choice for treatment was sodium valproate monotherapy in two cases, levetiracetam in one case, sodium valproate combined with levetiracetam in one case. During the follow-up, seizures were controlled in one case, decreased in frequency in two cases and were still frequent in one case. Conclusions Jeavons syndrome is one of the idiopathic and generalized epileptic syndromes and characterized by EM with or without absence seizure. Video EEG monitoring plays an important role in the diagnosis of this disease. Sodium valproate and levetiracetam were effective for this disease.

8. Pathogen infection and pathogenesis of Kawasaki disease
International Journal of Pediatrics 2020;47(1):18-21
Kawasaki disease, also known as mucous skin lymph node syndrome, is a systemic vascular inflammatory disease mainly occurring in children under the age of 5 years, which has become the main cause of the acquired heart disease in children.The etiology and pathogenesis of Kawasaki disease have not been clearly defined since the initial report of Kawasaki disease in 1967.In recent years, the epidemiology of Kawasaki disease has highly suggested that the pathogenesis of Kawasaki disease is related to infection.It is reported that there are dozens of pathogens known to be associated with Kawasaki disease, including bacteria, viruses, mycoplasma pneumoniae, chlamydia, etc.This article reviews the pathogens related to Kawasaki disease reported in recent years, aiming to introduce the pathogens that cause the Kawasaki disease and its association with coronary artery lesions(CALs), the main complication of Kawasaki disease, so as to provide clinical guidance for the research of Kawasaki disease pathogenesis.

Background:
and Purpose The relationships among interleukin (IL)-10 levels, anxiety, and cognitive status after stroke remain controversial. We aimed to determine the associations of serum IL-10 levels with poststroke anxiety (PSA) and poststroke cognitive impairment (PSCI).
Methods:
We recruited 350 patients with stroke, of whom only 151 completed a 1-month follow-up assessment. The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) were used to assess the cognitive status and anxiety, respectively. Serum IL-10 levels were measured within 24 hours of admission.
Results:
IL-10 levels were significantly lower in the PSA group than in the non-PSA group, and they were negatively associated with HAMA scores (r=-0.371, p<0.001). After adjusting for all potential confounders, IL-10 levels remained an independent predictor of PSA (odds ratio=0.471, 95% confidence interval=0.237–0.936, p=0.032). IL-10 levels were strongly correlated with behavior during interviews, psychic anxiety, and somatic anxiety. Patients without PSCI had higher IL-10 levels were higher in non-PSCI patients than in PSCI patients, and they were positively associated with MMSE scores in the bivariate correlation analysis (r=0.169, p=0.038), and also with memory capacity, naming ability, and copying capacity.However, IL-10 did not predict PSCI in the univariable or multivariable logistic regression.
Conclusions
Low IL-10 levels were associated with increased risks of PSA and PSCI at a 1-month follow-up after stroke. Serum IL-10 levels may therefore be helpful in predicting PSA.
