Objective To investigate the relationship between risk factors and recurrent respiratory tract infections( RRTI) in children. Methods A case-control study was carried out in 204 children with RRTI,com-pared with 400 children without RRTI in control group. Results Second-hand smoking,breastfeeding,malnutri-tion,zinc deficiency,pet at home,home decoration and use of glucocorticoid were associated with RRTI in chil-dren. But the association between breastfeeding and RRTI was only found in children less than 5 years old. The second hand smoking was associated with RRTI only among boys,rather than girls. Home decoration,zinc defi-ciency,malnutrition and breastfeeding were associated with RRTI only among girls,but not among boys. Conclu-sion Recurrent respiratory tract infections are associated with multiple factors. Different risk factors have differ-ent affections on RRTI on gender.

Objective To investigate whether maternal antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs)in infants may interfere with the antibody response to hepatitis B vaccine. Methods Infants from singleton pregnant mothers,who delivered at full term at the Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from October 2006 to January 2007,were divided into two groups based on their mothers'status of anti-HBs(43 positive and 29 negative).All infants were vaccinated with hepatitis B vaccine at birth and one month thereafter.Serum anti-HBs were quantitatively determined for the mothers before delivery and for infants in cord blood at delivery and in serum at the age of 1 and 3.5 months. Results Anti-HBs of all 43 newborns in the positive group were positive in cord blood with the coefficiency of 0.98 to the maternal serum anti-HBs level(t=39.05,P<0.01).Forty-two out of the 43 infants remained anti-HBs positive at the age of 1 month.Anti-HBs was negative both at birth and 1 month old in infants of the negative group.However,all infants in both groups were anti-HBs positive at 3.5 months of age,while the average concentration of anti-HBs in infants of the negative group was significantly higher than that of the positive group [(466.9±86.7)mIU/ml vs(151.2±23.1)mIU/ml,t=2.72,P=0.011].Among the 5 infants whose maternal anti-HBs level>1000 mIU/ml,3 did not produce active antibodies against two doses of hepatitis B vaccination. Conclusions Passively acquired maternal anti-HBs in infants can inhibit the active antibody response to hepatitis B vaccine,and the extent of this effect is associated with maternal anti-HBs level.

Objective: This study aimed to compare and analyze the functional differences between peripheral blood mono-cyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) of Helicobacter pylori-positive and H. pylori-negative patients with gastric cancer. Methods:H. py-lori infection was detected in 84 patients with gastric cancer in our hospital from January 2011 to October 2012 by the 14C-urea breath test. DCs were generated from monocytes isolated by an adherent method from the two groups of patients and cultured in the presence of rhIL-4, rhGM-CSF, and rhTNF-α. Furthermore, the expression of surface marker molecules was determined by fluorescence-activat-ed cell sorting analysis. The cytotoxicity of DCs pulsed T cells against gastric carcinoma cell was assessed by the lactate dehydroge-nase-releasing assay. The secretion of IL-12 and IFN-γin the supernatant was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Re-sults:No difference was observed in the morphological change of the maturation process. The mean expression of CD1a, CD80, CD83, CD86, and HLA-DR molecules in DCs of H. pylori-infected patients was higher than that in DCs of H. pylori-negative group, and the differences were statistically significant except for CD1a and HLA-DR. The cytotoxicity activities, IL-12 release, and IFN-γrelease in the H. pylori-positive group were significantly higher than those in the H. pylori-negative group (P<0.05). Conclusion:H. pylori infec-tion has no effect on the morphological change of the maturation process of monocyte-derived DCs. These data clearly demonstrate that monocyte-derived DCs of H. pylori-infected patients with gastric cancer can induce stronger maturation and activation than those of H. pylori-negative patients.

ObjectiveBy using bibliometrics and scientific knowledge mapping technology, this study systematically combs and visually analyzes the research hotspots, frontiers and trends of infectious disease prevention and control in China in the past 30 years, summarizes the research direction in this field, combs the knowledge structure, and provides guidance and reference for subsequent research. MethodsThe databases of CNKI and Wanfang were searched by ("infectious diseases" or " communicable diseases") and "prevention and control" not "chronic diseases", The bibliometric software VOSviewer 1.68 and CiteSpace 5.8.3 were used to analyze the co-occurrence network of scientific knowledge maps from the keywords, emerging words, research authors, institutions and other aspects, and summarized the research hotspots, frontiers and trends in the field of infectious disease prevention and control in China. ResultsA total of 10 777 literatures were retrieved, and 7 676 literatures were included after screening. From the perspective of research trend, the number of published literatures in the field of infectious disease prevention and control in China showed an overall upward trend, and the number of studies was closely related to the outbreak of infectious diseases. The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention has played a leading role in the research. In terms of researchers' cooperation, Hao Mo, Li Chengyue, Wang Ying and others from Fudan University were the main researchers' cooperation teams. Tu Wenxiao, Meng Ling and Xiang Nijuan from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention were the main researchers. Wang Quanyi, Li Xinyu, Wang Xiaoli from the Beijing Center for Disease Control and Prevention were the main researchers' research teams. Yang Zhicong, Li Meixia, Luo Lei and other research teams from Guangzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention have formed a relatively obvious cooperation network. Analysis of the keyword cluster atlas showed that the articles related to the prevention and control of infectious diseases mainly were focused on the epidemiology of new coronavirus infection (new infectious diseases), school infectious diseases, common infectious diseases, and the related research of vector infectious diseases. The analysis of salient words indicated the research focus and trend change in different time periods. At present, the research focus and frontier in the field of infectious diseases are mainly concentrated in the field of prevention and control of new infectious diseases, such as the monitoring, early warning, reporting, emergency management, laws and regulations of the new coronavirus infection. ConclusionOur country attaches great importance to the prevention and control of infectious diseases, with extensive and in-depth research hotspots. In particular, research on emerging infectious diseases has developed rapidly and achieved remarkable results. With the application of molecular biology, big data, AI and other technologies in the field of infectious disease prevention and control, China's infectious disease prevention and control capabilities will be greatly improved. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the linkage between universities, disease control institutions, and medical institutions, and establish and improve a long-term normal prevention and control mechanism.

Objective:
To understand the pollution characteristics and assess the pollution health risks of heavy metals in atmospheric PM2.5 in Lanzhou.
Methods:
According to the regional characteristics of air pollution and industrial distribution characteristics in Lanzhou, atmospheric PM2.5 was sampled monthly in Chengguan and Xigu Districts from January, 2015 to December, 2016. Detected the concentration of PM2.5 and 12 kinds of elements (Sb, Al, As, Be, Cd, Cr, Hg, Pb, Mn, Ni, Se and Tl) by weighing method and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Enrichment factor and geo-accumulation index were used to describe the pollution characteristics, while health risk assessment was conducted using the recommended United States Environmental Protection Agency (USA EPA) model. The health risks of non-carcinogens were evaluated by non-cancer hazard quotient (HQ), the non-carcinogenic risk was considered to be negligible when HQ<1, HQ>1 meant a health risk. With a single contaminant cancer Risk value to evaluate the health risks of carcinogens, when the Risk value between 10-6 to10-4 as an acceptable level.
Results:
The daily average concentrations of PM2.5 was 83.0 μg/m3, 77.0 μg/m3 in Chengguan and Xigu Districts, respectively, during the sampling periods, and the concentration of PM2.5 in winter/spring was higher than summer/fall in both districts. The concentration of Al in PM2.5 was the highest and other elements in descending order: Pb, Mn, As, Sb/Cd, Tl in both districts. Enrichment factor results showed that Al and Mn were mainly affected by natural factors, the rest of five elements were all typical man-made pollution elements and according to geo-accumulation index pollution level of Cd was the strongest in the winter. The results of health risk assessment showed that Mn had the highest non-cancer risks (HQ>1) and affected the health of the children seriously. HQ reached up to 2.44 and 1.79 in Chengguan and Xigu Districts, respectively. Pb, As, Sb, Cd had slight health impact (HQ<1), could be negligible. The cancer risks range of As, Cr were 6.33×10-6 to 6.46×10-5 between the acceptable level of risk (10-6 to 10-4), which indicated that As and Cd had potential cancer-risks.
Conclusions
The pollution level of atmospheric PM2.5 and the heavy metals in it was still grim;the non-cancer risks caused by multiple metals on children deserved attention. Although the cancer risks of As and Cd were between the acceptable level of risk, the potential cancer risk still shall not be ignored.
