Abstract: Malaria is one of the deadliest vector-borne infectious diseases in Africa, seriously endangering human life and health. Among them, cerebral malaria (CM) has a higher morbidity and mortality rate in children, with clinical manifestations primarily involving neurological symptoms, and comprehensive treatment mainly using artemisinin derivatives. When children with cerebral malaria are complicated by congenital heart disease and induce acute hypoxic attacks, the diagnosis and treatment face great difficulties in the absence of effective examination and monitoring treatments. Similar cases have rarely been reported at home and abroad. The paper summarizes and reports a case of a child with cerebral malaria combined with cyanotic congenital heart disease, treated during an aid mission to Africa, who was improved and discharged from the hospital after receiving multidisciplinary anti-malarial, intracranial pressure lowering, neurotrophic and symptomatic supportive treatment. This paper also discusses the diagnosis and treatment process of this child under difficult conditions, combined with current literature reports, in hopes of providing a reference for clinical treatment.

Objective To report the combined Aspergillus and Mucor infections in surgical site after orthotopic liver transplantation. Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of two liver transplantation recipients suffering from postoperative combined Aspergillus and Mucor infections and evaluate the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment. Results In the first patient the graft arteries suddenly ruptured on the 8th day postop caused by Aspergillus and Mucor infection failing an emergency surgical rescue. The patient eventually died of multiple organ failure. In the second recipient deep surgical site infection was diagnosed on the 10th day postop. Combination infection of Aspergillus and Mucor was identified by pathology. Despite of aggressive anti-fungal treatment and support, the general condition continued to deteriorate and the patient eventually died of systemic severe infection and respiratory failure. Conclusion Combined Aspergillus and Mucor infections in operative location is a rare complication of liver transplantation, which was usually occult in onset, and the prognosis is poor.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of 35 cases of Kennedy's disease and the correlation be?tween clinical features and CAG repeat size to strengthen the understanding of KD and to avoid misdiagnosis and delayed diagnosis.Methods Clinical data, including clinical signs and symptoms ,serum lipid, serum sex hormone level, electro?myography, the number of CAGs and (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis muscular atrophy,ALS) rating scale were collected from 35 patients genetically diagnosed of Kennedy disease and proceed system analysis. Results Patients with KD were adult onset with the average age of (40.77 ± 8.57) years and the average confirmed course were (8.32 ± 4.17) years. Forty-two point nine percent of the patients had family history. Clinical features included medulla oblongata and spinal muscular atrophy and weakness, limbs tremor, perioral muscles twitch and endocrine function and metabolic disorders in some cases. Creatine kinase, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein, follicle estrogen and prolactin were significantly in?creased compared to healthy adults (P:0.000,0.018,0.000,0.000,0.003). The number of CAG repeat was negatively correlated with the onset age (r=-0.549, P=0.001) but not associated with the illness severity (ALS rating scale) (r=0.001, P=0.998). ALS score was negatively correlated with course of disease(r=-0.540, P=0.001).Conclusions Chinese KD pa? tients share similar clinical phenotypes with those of other races but exhibit slightly different clinical characteristics. The length of the CAG repeat influences age at onset but not the severity of disease. Severity of disease is related to the course of disease.

Objective To describe the clinical features, differential diagnosis and therapeutic method of Madras motor neuron disease (MMND) to improve the understanding of MMND. Methods We retrospectively summarized the clinical data of 3 MMND patients. and conducted the related literature review to compare the similarities and differences on clinical features between our cases and foreign MMND patients. Results Patients in the present study were adult-on?set without definite family history. The main manifestations were multiple lower cranial nerve palsies along with weakness and wasting of proximal limbs. Bifacial palsy and dysarthria were most presented in patients, while definite hearing im?pairment was rarely seen. Two patients had fasciculation and atrophy in tongue and one presented with dysphagia. Weak?ness and atrophy were more frequently presented in upper extremities than in lower limbs. All patients had signs of upper motor neuron damage. The level of creatine kinase (CK) moderately increased in one case. Electromyography (EMG) de?tected a widespread neuronal damage in all patients. MMND should be differentiated from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Kennedy Disease and Brown–Vialetto–van Laere Syndrome. Intravenous immunoglobulin therapy showed effective in some cases to some extent. Compare to foreign MMND patients, bifacial weakness at onset was more frequently presented in our patients, but hearing impairment was absent. Conclusion The clinical features of MMND include weakness and at?rophy of limbs, involvement of facial and bulbar muscles, pyramidal dysfunction and hearing impairment. Some clinical manifestations of our patients are different from foreign MMND patient.
