Objective To investigate the relationship between COX-2 and Ki-67 proliferation index, bax, microvascular density(MVD)and CD44v6 respectively. Methods The expression of COX-2,Ki-67, bax, MVD (labelled by CD34) and CD44v6 were examined by immunohistochemistry PV method and tissue chip method in 101 cases of cervical carcinomas epithelium. Results The expression of COX-2 in cervical carcinomas has positive correlation with Ki-67, MVD and CD44v6, but has no correlation with bax. Conclusion The probable mechanisms are related with neovascularization, cell proliferation and cell adherence, but not related with the expression of bax.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics of children with Streptococcus pneumoniae cellulitis. Methods:The bacterial culture information management system in 18 children′s hospitals from January 2012 to December 2017 were reviewed.Among 1 138 children diagnosed with invasive pneumococcal disease(IPD), 7 cases were hospitalized with cellulitis.Clinical information was collected and analyzed.Results:Seven cases of Streptococcus pneumoniae cellulitis accounted for 0.6%(7/1 138 cases) of 1 138 IPD cases in 18 hospitals.There were 5 males and 2 females.The onset age was from 1 month to 6 years old, and the median age was 2 years old.There were 4 cases in rural areas and 3 cases in urban areas.Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) was found in 1 case.Clinical manifestations: fever, local swelling and pain with infection.The focus of cellulitis: orbital cellulitis in 2 cases, buccal infection in 2 cases, upper extremity, head and buttock infection in 1 case, respectively.At the beginning of the disease: 2 cases of orbital cellulitis were accompanied by nasosinusitis and suppurative otitis media, 1 case was treated with acute periapical inflammation, 1 case was 10 months after chemotherapy.Type of infection: 6 cases were complicated with bloodstream infection, 2 cases with bacterial meningitis and 1 case with pneumonia.Other culture results: 6 cases of Streptococcus pneumoniae were cultured in peripheral blood, 2 cases were positive in local pus culture.Drug sensitivity test: 6 cases were sensitive to Penicillin and Cephalosporin (Cefotaxime/Ceftriaxone), 1 case was resistant.Treatment: 3 patients were treated with Cephalosporins alone, 2 cases with Cephalosporins and Penicillins, 2 cases with Vancomycin and Meropenem for meningitis, 3 cases with local abscess by incision and drainage, 2 cases with meningitis in Intensive Care Unit, and 1 case with endotracheal intubation and ventilator assisted ventilation.The average length of stay was 14.3 days(5-41 days). Discharge outcome: 6 cases improved and 1 case died. Conclusions:Cellulitis is a rare type of infection in children with IPD.It is mainly found in the head, face and around the orbit.It may be accompanied by bloodstream infection or bacterial meningitis.Most of them have a good prognosis.

Objective: To explore the clinical features, the serotype distribution and drug resistance of the isolates in patient with invasive pneumococcal disease (IPD). Methods: By retrieving the laboratory information system in 18 children′s hospitals from 2012 to 2017, the children with IPD were enrolled. Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) must be isolated from the sterile sites (blood, cerebrospinal fluid, hydrothorax and joint effusion etc.). The clinical characteristics, serotype, drug resistance, treatment and prognosis were reviewed and analyzed. According to the telephone follow up results, the patients were divided into death group and recovered group. The index as an independent risk factor of mortality was demonstrated by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: There were 1 138 children with IPD, including 684 male and 454 female. The proportion of male to female was 1.5∶1. The age ranged from one day to 16 years. The median age was 1 year 3 month. The majority was under 5 years of age (89.3%, n= 1 016), especially under 2 years of age (61.9%, n=704). In all cases, 88.2% (n=1 004) were community acquired infection. The infections included meningitis (n=446, 39.2%), pneumonia with bacteremia (n=339, 29.8%), and bacteremia without focus (n=232, 20.4%). Underlying diseases were found in 242 cases (21.3%). Co-infections were determined in 62 cases (5.4%) with mycoplasma, 27 cases (2.4%) with adenovirus and 34 cases with influenza virus (3.0%). The penicillin insensitivity (PNSP) rates in meningitis and non-meningitis isolates were 69.5% (276/397) and 35.9% (221/615), respectively. There were 81 strains serotyped, in which 93.8% (76/81) were covered by 13-valent protein-polysaccharide conjugate vaccine (PCV13). In the 965 patients who were followed up by phone call, 156 cases (16.2%) were confirmed dead. The independent risk factors for the death were under 2 years of age (OR=2.143, 95%CI 1.284-3.577, P=0.004), meningitis (OR=3.066, 95%CI 1.852-5.074, P<0.01), underlying disease (OR=4.801, 95%CI 2.953-7.804, P<0.01), septic shock(OR=3.542, 95%CI 1.829-6.859, P<0.01), disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) (OR=4.150, 95%CI 1.468-11.733, P=0.007), multiple organ failure (OR=12.693, 95%CI 6.623-24.325, P<0.01) and complications of central nervous system (OR=1.975, 95%CI 1.144-3.410, P=0.015). Conclusions Most children with IPD were under 5 years of age, having underlying diseases and acquired the infection in community. The independent risk factors for death were under two years old, meningitis, underlying diseases and multiple organ failure. The problem of drug resistance was severe. The universal immunization of PCV13 would be effective to prevent IPD in Chinese children.
