Objective:To discuss the correlation between the immune instability of Th17/Treg and the pathogenesis of the Henoch-Schonlein purpura(HSP)with Mpcoplasma pneumoniae(MP)infection.Methods:From June 2018 to December 2019, children who had been diagnosed as HSP in the Department of Pediatrics at Qinhuangdao First Hospital and Qinhuangdao Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital, as well as in-patients with MP infection and outpatients, who had health check-up were collected.The subjects were divided into HSP group(41 cases), MP group(25 cases), HSP-MP group(19 cases) and control group(20 cases) according to the diagnosis of HSP and MP infection.The percentage of Th17 and Treg cells in peripheral venous blood of four groups were determined by flow cytometry, and the levels of interleukin(IL)-17, IL-6 and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)in peripheral venous serum of four groups were detected by ELISA.Results:There were no statistically significant differences regarding age and gender distribution among four groups( P>0.05). The percentages of Th17 cells, IL-17 and IL-6 levels in peripheral blood of the HSP-MP group was significantly higher than those in the other three groups( P<0.05), which in HSP group and MP group were higher than that in control group( P<0.05). There was no statistical difference between HSP group and MP group( P>0.05). The percentage of Treg cells in peripheral blood was significantly lower in HSP-MP group than those in the other three groups( P<0.05), which in the HSP group and MP group were lower than those in control group( P<0.05). There was no statistical difference between HSP group and MP group( P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences of TGF-β among the four groups( P>0.05). Conclusion:High levels of IL-17 and IL-6 may be an important factor causing severe Th17/Treg immune disorders in children with HSP combined with MP infection, which may play an important role in the pathogenesis of HSP combined with MP infection.

ObjectiveTo study the relationship between impulsive behavior and alexithymia in pupils in Changsha.Methods 702 pupils were tested with Barratt impulsivity scale (BIS-11) and Toronto alexithymia scale (TAS-20).Results ( 1 ) Male pupils had significantly higher scores of total BIS and non-planning impulsiveness than female (24.47 ± 5.30 vs 23.40 ± 5.59,P ＜ 0.05 ; 62.25 ± 9.46 vs 60.35 ± 9.91,P ＜ 0.05 ).Pupils in elder age group had only significantly higher total score of BIS than pupils in younger age group ( total:62.36 ± 9.69 vs 60.29 ± 9.68,P＜ 0.01 ).(2) Pupils with high impulsivity had significantly higher scores of total and factor scores of alexithymia than pupils with low impulsivity (total:57.43 ± 10.16 vs 46.55 ± 8.77,P ＜0.01 ).The total scores of BIS were positively correlated with total scores of alexithymia ( r =0.40,P ＜ 0.01 ) and factor scores of alexithymia ( r =0.25 ～ 0.33,P ＜ 0.01 ).Stepwise regression analysis revealed that total scores of BIS explained by DIF,DDF and EOT were 18％.ConclusionThere are certain gender and age differences in impulsivity impulsive behavior of 8 to 13 years old pupils.There exist the low to moderate correlations between impulsivity and alexithymia in pupils.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection in preterm infants. Methods Clinical data of 75 preterm infants infected with Klebsiella pneumoniae treated in BaYi Children's Hospital from February 6,2008 to February 10,2010 were retrospectively analyzed.The difference of auxiliary examination between early-onset and late-onset infection group were compared by two independent samples t test.Spearman correlation analysis and non-conditional Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the high risk factors and the prognostic factors of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection in preterm infants. Results The incidence of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection was 2.8％ (75/2721) in preterm infants,and the mortality rate was 9.3％ (7/75). There were 71 cases of Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis and 4 cases of Klebsiella pneumoniae pneumonia.Among 75 cases,63 cases were early-onset infection (onset age≤72 h) and 12 were late-onset infection (onset age＞72 h).All patients presented with poor response,heart rate during quiet sleep ＞ 160/min and low oxygen saturation.The mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration in early-onset Klebsiella pneunoniae infection cases were higher than those in late-onset neonates [(128.87±24.60) fl vs (113.72±13.54) fl,t=-2.07,P＜0.05and (38.11±2.15) pg vs (36.98±1.05) pg,t=-2.76,P＜0.05].Low birth weight and caesarean section were associated with early-onset Klebsiella pneumoniae sepsis (r=0.250 and -0.240,P＜0.05). The prognosis of Klebsiella pneumoniae infection was associated with hospital stay and duration of premature rupture of membranes (r=0.368 and 0.318,P＜0.05). Conclusions There were no specific clinical manifestations for Klebsiella pneumoniae infection in preterm infants.Preterm infants with low birth weight,long duration of premature rupture of membranes,delivered by caesarean section and received invasive operation are likely to develop Klebsiella pneumoniae infection.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of long-term oxygen exposure on the pulmonary microvascular development and the expression of Ephrin-B2 of lungt issue in neonatal mice.MethodsForty-eight 2-day-old Kunming mice were randomly divided into hyperoxia group and air group, with 24 mice in each group. Mice in hyperoxia group were exposed to 70% oxygen to establish a model of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Six mice from each group were sacrificed at 3, 7, 14 and 21 days of age, and lung tissue was collected for further test. The lung sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin for histological evaluation, radial alveolar counts (RAC) and microvessel density (MVD) measurement by CD34 immunohistochemistry. Location and expression of Ephrin-B2 in lung tissue were measured by immunohistochemistry. Ephrin-B2 mRNA and protein levels were detected by fluorescent quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction and Western blot, respectively. Two independent samplest-test was used for statistical analysis. Results(1) Pathological changes: The pathology of lung tissue in hyperoxia group showed typical BPD-like changes with advancing postnatal age, presenting mainly with simplified alveolar development and decreased microvessel number. Compared with the air group, RAC and MVD were significantly decreased in 14-day-old mice (6.067±0.432 vs 6.950±0.243,t=4.365,P<0.05; 4.133±0.476 vs 4.867±0.472,t=2.680,P<0.01) and 21-day-old mice in the hyperoxia group (8.050±0.362 vs 9.817±0.487,t=7.127,P<0.05; 4.333±0.532 vs 6.017±0.937,t=3.828,P<0.01). (2) Location and expression of Ephrin-B2: Ephrin-B2 was mainly expressed in alveolar epithelial cells, and weakly expressed in alveolar septum. Compared with the air group, the average optical density of Ephrin-B2 was significantly decreased in 7-day-old (0.146±0.013 vs 0.153±0.009), 14-day-old (0.140±0.007 vs 0.161±0.006) and 21-day-old mice in the hyperoxia group (0.138±0.008 vs 0.166±0.009)(t=-2.049,-9.442 and-10.087, allP<0.05). (3) Ephrin-B2 mRNA and protein levels: The Ephrin-B2 mRNA levels in 14-day-old (0.65±0.14 vs 1.05±0.16,t=4.609,P<0.01) and 21-day-old mice (0.57±0.09 vs 1.13±0.18,t=6.816,P<0.01) were significantly lower in hyperoxia group than in the air group. The Ephrin-B2 protein levels were also significantly lower in hyperoxia group than in the air group in 21-day-old mice (0.13±0.03 vs 0.29±0.08,t=4.587,P=0.000).ConclusionsOxygen-induced BPD model mice have simplified alveolar development, reduced MVD and decreased expression of Ephrin-B2 in lung tissue, which may play an important role in the pathogenesis of BPD.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) is a kind of extra life support technique that can support cardiac and pulmonary function in a relatively long time.With the application of nitric oxide,pulmonary surfactant and high frequency ventilation,the use of ECMO in neonatal respiratory failure decreased.Although received these treatment,there are some newborn with respiratory failure still required ECMO at last.On this paper,the application of ECMO in neonatal respiratory failure from foreign medical institute was introduced,and compared with the domestic situation,in order to improve the application of ECMO in neonatal respiratory failure.
