Objective:To observe the long-term effects of conventional disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (cDMARDs) in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and drug-related adverse reactions, and provide reference to clinical treatment and assessment.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed for AS patients with more than 10 years follow-up records in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Peking University Shenzhen Hospital. The AS patients enrolled were treated with cDMARDs, non-steroid anti-inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), and glucocorticoidsonl only. The treatment group was treated continuously for at least 3 years, and the control group was untreated or treated for less than 3 months. Clinical symptoms, inflammatory indicators, imaging results and drug-related adverse reactions of all patients were collected for statistical analysis. The counting data were tested by χ2 test, the measurement data in normal distribution was tested by t test, and the measurement data that not normally distributed was tested by mann-whitney U test. Paired test was used for statistical processing before and after treatment. Results:A total of 166 eligible patients were included, including 111 in the treatment group and 55 in the control group. There were no statistical significant differences between the treatment group and the control group at baseline including the mean follow-up time, symptomatic disease course, age, sex ratio, human lymphocyte antigen (HLA)-B27 positive rate, duration of morning stiffness, pain at night, peripheral arthritis, ESR, CRP and imaging data. After 10 years, the treat-ment group had shorter morning stiffness[(8±18) vs (22±34), U=2 228, P=0.008], less nocturnal pain [(2/1.9%) vs (19/36.5%), χ2=37.037, P<0.01], lower ESR level [(14±13) vs (20±19), t=2.249, P=0.026], lower CRP level [(6±6) vs (10±11), t=2.154, P=0.033], lower incidence of peripheral arthritis [(23/20.7%) vs(25/45.5%), χ2=10.946, P=0.001] and lower sacroiliac arthritis progression rate [(28/25.2% ) vs (46/83.6%), χ2=50.922, P<0.01], and lower spinal progression rate [(8/7.2%) vs (51/92.7%), χ2=117.407, P<0.01] compared with the control group. The differences between the two groups was statistically significant. The main medications and drug proportions in the treatment group were as follows: sulfasalazine (100%), methotrexate (86.5%), NSAIDs (98.2%), glucocorticoid (78.4%) and thalidomide (62.2%). The main drug-related adverse reactions that occurred during the treatment included dizziness, abnormal menstruation, and reversible liver dysfunction. Conclusion:The combination of cDMARDs can effectively control the clinical symptoms of most AS patients, reduce inflammation indicators, delay the progression of sacroiliac joint and spinal damage, and have no serious drug-related adverse reactions. Almost all of the untreated AS patients have radiographic progression of the sacroiliac joint and spine.

Objective To observe the clinical characteristics of ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients with hyperuricemia (HUA), and to understand the correlation between AS and HUA, so as to improve the understanding of AS patients with HUA. Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out in patients with the diagnosis with AS from November 2012 to August 2016. Patients were divided into two groups based on complicated with and without HUA. The clinical manifestations, inflammatory indicators, imaging manifest-ations, treatment and outcomes of the two groups were statistically analyzed, and the follow-up results of some patients with HUA were analyzed. The chi-square test was used for the counting data. The measurement data in line with the normal distribution were tested by t test, and the measurement data in non-normal distribution were tested by Mann-Whitney U test. Results Three hundred and sixty-two patients with AS were collected, consisting of 288 males (79.6％) and 74 females (20.4％), aged from 14 to 72 years, a course of disease was 3 months to 40 years. There were 87 cases (24.0％) with hyperuricemia, 77 cases were male (88.5％, 21.3％of all AS patients), and 10 were female (11.5％, 2.8％ of all AS patients). Shorter morning stiffness time [(13 ±31) min and (22 ±48) min, Z=-2.231, P=0.026], lower IgM level [(1.4 ±1.3) g/L and (3.0 ±4.3) g/L, Z=-2.040, P=0.041], and lower erythrocyte sedimentation rate [(25±17) mm/1 h and (33±22) mm/1 h, t=-2.617, P=0.007] in the HUA group when compared with patients without HUA. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant. Four cases (4.6％) had gout arthritis in the group with HUA, all were male, blood uric acid level all>420 μmol/L. There were 7 cases (8.0％) of urolithiasis in the group with HUA, and 24 cases (8.7％) of urolithiasis in the group without HUA, but there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of urolithiasis between the two groups. None developed hypertensive disease, heart disease, nephropathy, or diabetis. Conclusion The incidence of hyperuricemia is high in AS, and with lower disease activity, and fewer complications.

BACKGROUNDA free running asthma screening test is usually used for screening exercise-induced bronchoconstriction. The total serum allergen IgE level can reveal the patient's atopy characteristics. Our study is to evaluate the diagnostic values of the combination of the two tests in asthmatic children and compare this new diagnostic method with the International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISSAC) questionnaires and the bronchial provocation test, which are popular diagnostic tool for pediatric asthma.

METHODSA total of 773 school children were recruited in this study. The children's asthma was diagnosed by means of a combination of the free running asthma screening test and total serum allergen IgE level. The new diagnostic method value was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and compared with other diagnostic tools such as ISSAC questionnaires and the bronchial provocation test.

RESULTSThe AUC of this new diagnostic method was higher than 0.9. When the cut-off value of total serum allergen IgE level was ≥ 47 KU/L, the sensitivity and the specificity were 71.4% and 85.1%, respectively, which were better than those of either the ISSAC questionnaires or bronchial provocation test.

CONCLUSIONThe combination of the free running asthma screening test and total serum allergen IgE level may be an effective diagnostic tool for children's asthma.

Objective: To investigate the effect of hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy (HDCP) on the mortality and early complications of premature infants. Methods: The general clinical data of preterm infants with gestational age 24-36^{+ 6} weeks were collected from the cooperative units in the task group from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2014.According to the severity of HDCP, the infants were divided into 4 groups: HDCP group, preeclampsia group, eclampsia group and non HDCP group, the mortality and major complications of preterm infants were compared, and the influencing factors were analyzed. Results: The mortality rate of preterm in the HDCP group was significantly higher than that of non HDCP group, and there was statistical significance (χ²=9.970, P=0.019). Eclampsia had a highest fatality rate (4.8%) in the early stage, compared with non HDCP group (2.2%), and the difference was statistically significant.Comparison of HDCP group (1.8%) and eclampsia group (3.2%) suggested that there was no statistically significant difference.The incidence of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in preterm in HDCP group was significantly higher than that of non HDCP group, and there was statistical significance (χ²=13.241, P=0.004). Eclampsia group showed the highest incidence (35.4%), compared with non HDCP group (16.2%), the difference was statistically significant, but compared with HDCP group (19.9%), preeclampsia group (17.1%), there was no significant diffe-rence.The incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm in HDCP group was significantly higher than that of non HDCP group (χ²=9.592, P=0.022), the highest incidence showed up in eclampsia group (9.7%), compared with non HDCP group (2.0%) and HDCP group (1.7%), the difference was statistically significant.But there was no statistically significant difference, compared with preeclampsia group.As the degree of HDCP aggravated, the incidence of BPD gradually rose.There was no significant impact on necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and sepsis of HDCP (χ²=7.054, 7.214, 0.358, 3.852; P=0.070, 0.065, 0.949, 0.278). Considering the overall outcome of the child, that was, whether the child died or survived, he had at least one complication, and HDCP had an effect on it (χ²=15.697, P=0.001), so the incidence increased while the degree of HDCP rose gradually.After adjusting gestational age, birth weight, sex, way of delivery, placental abruption and front placenta, prenatal hormonal, gestational diabetes, neonatal asphyxia and other factors, the results displayed that HDCP was the factor leading to the death of premature baby (OR=2.159, 95%CI: 1.093-4.266), and comparison between preeclampsia and eclampsia showed no statistical difference (P=0.714, 0.389); HDCP had no significant influence on RDS, BDP, ICH, NEC, ROP and sepsis. Conclusions HDCP leads to increased risk of premature death, but also leads to the increased incidence of RDS and BPD, but it had no obvious effect on NEC, ROP, IVH, sepsis and other complications.
