Objective To identify the risk factors for severe acute lower respiratory infections (ALRI) in children and to provide scientific basis for prevention and treatment of ALRI. Methods Several databases including Pubmed, Databases-Medline (Ovid), Embase, CINAHL and Global Health Library, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang Date were searched (1990.1-2014.12) for references. All selected studies were about risk factors of ALRI in children. The screening and quality evalua? tion of the literature data was conducted independently by two reviewers according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Stata 11.0 software was used for Meta-analysis. Results Meta-analysis of 27 included literature showed that seven risk fac?tors were significantly associated with severe ALRI:low birth weight, lack of exclusive breastfeeding, crowded household, ex?posure to indoor air pollution, malnutrition, living in a house with smokers or smoking in pregnant and HIV-exposed unin?fected condition. Conclusion The above seven risk factors play the important role in the development of ALRI in children. Furthermore, it emphasizes the need for further studies investigating other potential risk factors to decrease the possibility of childhood ALRI.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the effects of BARF1 down-regulation on EBV-positive gastric carcinoma cell apoptosis, and the molecular mechanisms by BARF1 silencing-mediated apoptosis.METHODS: After NUGC3 and SNU719 cells were transfected with NCsiRNA and siRNA, respectively, the protein levels of BARF1, Bcl-2, Bax, cyto-chrome C, caspase 3 and capase 9 were detected by Western blot, and the mRNA expression of BARF1, Bcl-2 and Bax was determined by RT-PCR.The cell viability was measured by the method of Trypan blue exclusion and the cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry analysis with Annexin V-FITC/PI staining.The expression of the apoptosis-related proteins in the cells transfected with siRNA and NCsiRNA was examined by human apoptosis antibody arrays.Mitochondrial mem-brane potential was determined by flow cytometry.The interaction between Apaf-1 and caspase 9 was confirmed by immuno-precipitation.RESULTS: Compared with untreated and NCsiRNA groups, BARF1 gene silencing significantly inhibited the cell viability, induced apoptosis, and reduced the mitochondrial membrane potential in the NUGC3 and SNU719 cells transfected with siRNA.BARF1 gene silencing up-regulated the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins and down-regulated the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins, and the Bcl-2/Bax ratio was significantly decreased.In BARF1 gene silencing cells, the caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fmk inhibited BARF1 silencing-mediated apoptosis, and significantly increased the levels of cleaved caspase 3 and caspase 9.The concentration of cytochrome C significantly increased as compared with NCsiRNA group, and Apaf-1 interacted with caspase 9 in the cytoplasm.CONCLUSION:BARF1 silencing induces apoptosis via the mitochondrial pathway through regulating the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins in a caspase-dependent manner in the NUGC3 and SNU719 cells.

Objective:This paper aims to bioinformatically analyze the target genes of miR-29b and to provide clues for cancer research targeting miR-29b. Methods:The differential expression levels of miRNAs in CD133+and CD133-A549 cells were detected using the miRNA PCR chip. Real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed to verify the partially differential expression of miR-NAs. Target genes of miR-29b were predicted by miRecords and analyzed by gene ontology and signal transduction pathway enrich-ment analysis. Results: The miR-29b expression was significantly decreased in the CD133+A549 cells compared with that in the CD133-cells. The number of miR-29b target genes was 106. The functions of these target genes were enriched in binding and extracel-lular matrix structural constituent (P<0.01). The JAK-STAT and TGF-βsignal transduction pathways were significantly enriched (P<0.05). Conclusion:The abnormal expression of miR-29b may be related to metastasis. Some of the predicted target genes of miR-29b were significantly enriched in the signaling pathways in relation to the tumors.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of year-round respiratory viral infection in children with lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), and the relationship between respiratory viral infection and allergen sensitization in exacerbating asthma. Methods A total of 231 hospitalized children with acute LRTI were investigated from May 2013 to April 2014. The 5 most common respiratory viruses were isolated from nasopharyngeal aspirate using multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, including respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus (AV), parainfluenza virus (PIV), influenza virus (IFV) and rhinovirus (RV). Atopic sensitization was defined if more than 1 serum specific immunoglobulin E level measured using immunofluorescence experiment was over 0.35 IU/mL. Results RSV was the most common pathogen of bronchiolitis in hospitalized children through the year. RV or IFV infections were more prevalent in asthma exacerbations compared to other LRTIs. AV was more likely to cause pneumonia. RV and IFV were associated with asthma exacerbations in children with atopic sensitization, but not in nonatopic children. Conclusion RV and IFV are associated with hospitalization for asthma exacerbation in children with atopic sensitization.
