Objective:To investigate the effect of enteral nutrition on hematological complications in children with malignant solid tumors during chemotherapy.Methods:A total of 103 children with malignant solid tumor admitted to our hospital from March 2020 to December 2020 were enrolled in the study. The children were randomly divided into enteral nutrition group ( n=51) and control group ( n=52). Children in enteral nutrition group were given enteral nutrition support on the basis of routine diet, while children in control group were only given routine diet. The levels of leukocytes, neutrophils, hemoglobin and platelets in peripheral blood of children during chemotherapy were analyzed. The incidence of infection and the transfusion of red blood cells and platelets after chemotherapy were documented and compared between two groups. Results:The levels of white blood cells, neutrophils, hemoglobin and platelets before chemotherapy were significantly higher than those after chemotherapy both in enteral nutrition group ( Z=-5.91, -5.59, -5.54, -5.66, all P<0.05) and in control group ( Z=-6.14, -5.84, -5.75, -4.75, all P<0.05). The overall hemoglobin levels in enteral nutrition group before and after chemotherapy was significantly higher than those in control group ( t=5.68, 5.62, P<0.05), and there were no significant differences in the levels of white blood cells, neutrophils and platelets between the two groups before chemotherapy ( Z=-0.71, -0.12, -1.29, all P>0.05) and after chemotherapy ( Z=-0.39, -0.86, -0.94, all P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the degree of anemia during chemotherapy was significantly improved in enteral nutrition group (χ2=10.45,6.12, all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the reduction degree of white blood cells, neutrophils and platelets between the two groups (before chemotherapy: χ2=1.17, 0.10, 0.49; after chemotherapy: χ2=0.18, 1.10, 0.97, all P>0.05). The number of children receiving red blood cell transfusion in enteral nutrition group was significantly lower than that in control group (χ2=14.06, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the number of children with infection and platelet transfusion between the two groups (χ2=1.20, 0.29, all P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the duration of neutrophil deficiency between enteral nutrition group and control group ( t=-1.75, P>0.05). Conclusion:Enteral nutrition support can significantly improve the hemoglobin level in children during chemotherapy, effectively alleviate the severity of anemia, and reduce the incidence of red blood cell transfusion after chemotherapy, which has high clinical application value.

BACKGROUND:Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disease.Early diagnosis is crucial for preventing disease progression and for effective treatment.Therefore,it is of significance to investigate the diagnostic characteristics and immune cell infiltration of rheumatoid arthritis. OBJECTIVE:Based on the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database,to screen potential diagnostic markers of rheumatoid arthritis using machine learning algorithms and to investigate the relationship between the diagnostic characteristics of rheumatoid arthritis and immune cell infiltration in this pathology. METHODS:The gene expression datasets of synovial tissues related to rheumatoid arthritis were obtained from the GEO database.The data sets were merged using a batch effect removal method.Differential expression analysis and functional correlation analysis of genes were performed using R software.Bioinformatics analysis and three machine learning algorithms were used for the extraction of disease signature genes,and key genes related to rheumatoid arthritis were screened.Furthermore,we analyzed immune cell infiltration on all differentially expressed genes to examine the inflammatory state of rheumatoid arthritis and investigate the correlation between their diagnostic characteristics and infiltrating immune cells. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In both rheumatoid arthritis and normal synovial tissues,we identified 179 differentially expressed genes,with 124 genes up-regulated and 55 genes down-regulated.Enrichment analysis revealed a significant correlation between rheumatoid arthritis and immune response.Three machine learning algorithms identified LRRC15 and MICB as potential biomarkers of rheumatoid arthritis.LRRC15(area under the curve=0.964,95%confidence interval:0.924-0.992)and MICB(area under the curve=0.961,95%confidence interval:0.923-0.990)demonstrated strong diagnostic performance on the validation dataset.The infiltration of 13 types of immune cells was altered,with macrophages being the most affected.In rheumatoid arthritis,the majority of proinflammatory pathways in immune cell function were activated.Immunocorrelation analysis revealed that LRRC15 and MICB had the strongest correlation with M1 macrophages.To conclude,this study identified LRRC15 and MICB as potential diagnostic markers for rheumatoid arthritis,with strong diagnostic performance and significant correlation with immune cell infiltration.Machine learning and bioinformatics analysis deepened the understanding of immune infiltration in rheumatoid arthritis and provided new ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
