Histiocytic necrotic lymphadenitis is known as Kikuchi-Fujimoto disease (KFD).KFD is a systemic disease,which is characterized by fever,necrotizing lymphadenopathy and leukopenia.However,involvement of the central and peripheral nervous system is rare.It can present as aseptic meningitis,encephalomyelitis,peripheral neuropathy,cerebellar ataxia and tremor,which makes it difficult to be differentiated with other nervous system diseases.Our review summarizes the clinical manifestations and differential diagnoses of KFD involving nervous system in order to reduce misdiagnoses and mistreatments.

Objective To analyze the death status of children ≤ 5 years old in Jiaxing City from 2013 to 2017,and to provide scientific and effective measures of decreasing the children mortality and ensuring the health of children.Methods Death surveillance data of children ≤5 years old was obtained from monitoring network covering the whole city of maternal and child health information systems and the relevant maternal and child health statistics.The mortality rate,the sequence and changing trend of main death causes,prenatal health services of children ≤5 years old in Jiaxing City from 2013 to 2017were analyzed.Results From 2013 to 2017,there were 2 788 cases death of children ≤5 years old in Jiaxing City.The neonatal mortality rate (NMR),infant mortality rate (IMR),≤5 years old children mortality rate(U5MR) in Jiaxing City were 2.33‰,3.52‰ and 4.83 ‰,respectively.The mortality rates of all ages showed a declining trend year by year (x2NMR =19.641,P<0.001;x2IMR =31.705,P <0.001;x2U5MR =48.294,P <0.001).There were significant differences in the mortality between the lower local and the migrant children (x22013 =26.16,x22014 =18.45,x22015 =27.72,x22016 =14.49,x22017=24.19;P<0.001).The top two causes of death in children ≤ 5 years old were drowning,premature birth and low birth weight.The top two causes of death in infants and newborns were premature birth,low birth weight and other congenital anomalies.In the recent five years,49.60% of children ≤5 years old died in the hospital.At the same time,the proportion of deaths on the way and at home was 15.64% and 34.76% respectively.Although there was a gap in the level of prenatal health services between local and mobile children,the gap has been declining year by year.Conclusions The key measures to decrease the mortality rate of children under 5 years old in Jiaxing City include strengthening the management of pregnancy care and high-risk pregnancy;paying attention to tertiary prevention and doing a good job in monitoring birth defects such as prenatal screening;enhancing safety education and child supervision for parents of children in 1-4 years old;reinforcing the construction of maternal and child health professional team and the technical training of newborn resuscitation techniques such as neonatal asphyxia recovery technology;intensifying the health-care and management of migrant children and improving the ability of parents to utilize child medical service.
