Objective:
To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of relapsed demyeli-nating disease (RDD) associated with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibodies (MOG abs) children in southern China.
Methods:
Children with RDD associated with MOG abs at Department of Neurology in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from January 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.The annualized relapse rates (ARRs) and expand disability status scale (EDSS) were used to assess the recurrence frequency and neurological dysfunction respectively.
Results:
Ten children were included with the age of (6.4±3.6) years old, and male to female ratio was 4∶6.(1)Clinical phenotype: all children had 24 episodes during follow-up, with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM)(7/10 cases) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD)(3/10 cases) on the first episode.Among 14 recurrent episodes, ADEM (9/14 times) was the most common, followed by optic neuritis(ON)(3/14 times)and brainstem encephalitis (2/14 times). By the final follow-up, the final diagnosis was multiphasic disseminated encephalomyelitis(MDEM)(6/10 cases), NMOSD(3/10 cases), ADEM-ON(1/10 case), respectively.(2)Laboratory examination: all the children had positive serum MOG abs in the acute stage.The serum MOG abs titer high group(≥1∶640)(6 cases)on the first episode complicated ON (3 cases) and long segment myelitis (3 cases) more common than those of low group(1∶320)(4 cases). (3)Imaging changes: 25 times of bain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were performed in the acute stage, MRI changes mostly involved the cortex and subcortical white matter.Four cases had abnormal spinal cord MRI.(4)Treatment and prognosis: intravenous methylprednone (IVMP) combined with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) were administrated in acute stage.Rituximab (2/10 cases), mycophenolate mofetil (4/10 cases), IVIG (2/10 cases) monthly and low dose prednisone orally (2/10 cases) were given respectively in maintains stage.ARRs decreased from 1.4 to 0 and EDSS score improved significantly after these treatments above.Seven cases had residual neurological dysfunction with 3 cases of NMOSD, 3 cases of MDEM and 1 case of ADEM-ON, including motor dysfunction, learning disability and inattention, symptomatic epilepsy and visual impairment.
Conclusions
ADEM is the most common form of RDD associated with MOG abs in children.Those with high serum MOG abs titer on the first episode are prone to have ON or long segment myelitis.Immunomodification therapy is effective in the relapsed patients, residual neurological sequelae were related to the type of repeated demyelination.

OBJECTIVE:To establish quantitative e valuation system of the prophylactic use of antibiotics in orthopedic type Ⅰ incision surgery ,and to provide reference for evaluating the rational prevention use of antibiotics in this type surgery scientifically. METHODS:Based on the Guidelines of Clinical Use of Antimicrobial Agents (2015 edition),drug instructions ,related guidelines and references ,experts from relevant departments jointly discussed and formulated the evaluation criteria for the rationality of the use of antibiotics in type Ⅰ incision in orthopedic surgery. AHP method was used to assign the weights for various indexes of evaluation criteria ;TOPSIS method was used to retrospectively analyze and evaluate the rationality of 120 cases of type Ⅰ incision surgery from 3 orthopedic departments in Peking University People ’s Hospital during Sept. 1st-30th,2019. RESULTS :Established evaluation system included 4 primary indicators (medication indication ,usage and dosage ,medication timing ,other factors )and 12 secondary indicators. Among the secondary indicators ,indications,drug selection and timing of preoperative administration were the most important (weights were 0.209,0.140,0.117). Among 120 cases,30.83% of drug use were reasonable ,47.50% were basically reasonable and 21.67% were unreasonable. Evaluation results obtained by AHP-TOPSIS were consistent with the actual situation. CONCLUSIONS :The rationality evaluation method of prophylactic use of antibiotics in type Ⅰ incision surgery based on AHP-TOPSIS method can quantitatively evaluate the rationality of drug use by combining multiple indicators. The method is feasible ,operable,and the evaluation results can be quantified ,which has a wide range of application.
