OBJECTIVE: To investigate the distribution of positive allergens in patients with allergic rhinitis in Changzhou. METHOD: A total of 4242 cases with allergic symptoms and signs underwent skin prick test with 16 kinds of standardized allergens. The common allergens were found out. The samples were stratified on seven age groups to analysis the distributive characteristics of allergens responsible for each group. The samples were also stratified on children group and adults group to analysis their response degree to dust mite. RESULT: 2638 cases (62.19%) had the positive reaction, including male 1380 (52.3%) cases, female 1258 (47.7%) cases. Dermatophagoides farinae and dermatophagoides pteronyssinus had the highest positive ratio (85.86%, 83.55%) in inhalation group, followed cockroach (11.49%) and Humulus L. (9.82%), fungus (2.92%) in the lower positive ratio. Shrimp (5.76%) was the most common allergen in food group. The distribution of common allergens in different age groups was variable. There was significantly higher sensitivity to dust mite between children group compared to adults group (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION The study shows that Dust mite was the mostly responsible common allergen in Changzhou district. The distribution of common allergens in children group and adults group was variable.

Objective:To investigate the related risk factors related to patellar dislocation combined with osteochondral fracture (OCF).Methods:A case control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 278 patients with patellar dislocation admitted to Second Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2016 to June 2020, including 98 males and 180 females; aged 12-41 years [(21.1±4.6)years]. The patients were divided into OCF group ( n=112) and non-OCF group ( n=166) according to the surgical records and occurrence of OCF or not under intraoperative arthroscopy. The data of the two groups were recorded, including basic characteristics (ie, sex, age, sides of injury, whether or not the epiphysis is closed), patella height, patellar inclination angle, tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG), femoral trochlear shape, tibial lateral rotation angle and femoral anteversion angle. Univariate analysis was adopted to evaluate the correlation of the data with patellar dislocation combined with OCF. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors of patellar dislocation combined with OCF. Results:Univariate analysis showed that patellar dislocation combined with OCF was related to male, patellar inclination angle and femoral anteversion angle ( P<0.05 or 0.01), while not to age, epiphysis is closed or not, sides of injury, patella height, TT-TG, femoral trochlear shape and tibial lateral rotation angle (all P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that male ( OR=1.75, 95% CI 1.07-2.90, P<0.05) and increased femoral anteversion angle ( OR=3.12, 95% CI 1.89-5.17, P<0.05) were significantly correlated with patellar dislocation combined with OCF. Conclusion:Male and increased femoral anteversion angle are independent risk factors for patellar dislocation combined with OCF.
