Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2006;0(16):-
Objective To approach the clinical characteristics of extrapulmonary complication induced by mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP) infection and infectious mononucleosis syndrome. Methods The MP-IgM(+), EBV- IgM(+) were determined by enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay.There were 18 cases infected with MP and infectous mononucleosis syndrome with abnormal fever,cervix lyphadenectasis,pharyngitis,liver and spleen intumescence,lung infection, and so on.They were analyzed by reviewing.Results There were 8 cases(44.4%) with extrapulmonary complication, among them 3 cases(16.6%) with liver injury,1 case (5.56%) with heart injury,2 cases(11.1%) with both heart and liver injuries,1 case(5.56%) with urinary system injury (nephritis), 1 case (5.56%) with nervous system injury (encephalitis).The complication usually arised 1 week after primary affection, but had no typical clinical symptoms.There was only 1 case with encephalitis who expressed the symptom of nervous system symptom firstly, and was clinically dia- gnosed by assistant examinations. All the cases recovered after 3 weeks′ treatment with macrolides, 5-7 days with ganciclovir, and also with regular complication and support treatments.Conclusions The incidence of extrapulmonary complication induced by MP infection and infectous mononucleosis syndrome is higher than that by the single infection, and its clinical symptom isn′t obvious and is easy to be covered by original illness. And a few showing the extrapulmonary as the first symptom is easily mistakenly diagnosed .As a result, the prognosis is favorable if we make subsidiary inspection and diagnosis as soon as possible and give it with regular treatment.

Objective To evaluate the value of prenatal ultrasound in the interrupted aortic arch (IAA), and analyze the reasons of misdiagnosis and improve diagnostic ratio of this kind of defects. Methods Ultrasonic characteristics were analyzed in 16 fetuses with aortic arch anomalies, which were compared with ultrasound image and autopsy results of the normal fetus. The relativity of fetal IAA and abnormal chromosome was also analyzed. Results Among the 16 cases, 15 cases were confirmed by anatomy and the accuracy of ultrasound diagnosis was 94% (15/16), of which one case was serious constriction of aortic arch, one case was error type, three cases were obtained explicit type due to unsatisfactory results of prenatal ultrasound. The coincidence rate of ultrasonic type was 73% (11/15). All of the corrected diagnosed cases were detected with ventricular septal, of which 5 cases were detected with complete endocardial cushion defect, 9 cases were found extra cardiac malformations. Among the 7 karyotype check cases, 3 cases were diagnosed with Trisomy 18, 1 case Trisomy 13, while the rest 3 cases normal. The incidence rate of Trisomy 18 was 43 % (3/7). Conclusions Prenatal ultrasound shows a high accuracy in diagnosing fetal interrupted aortic arch (IAA ), but there’s a need to be improved in explicit typing. It is difficult to identify fetal interrupted aortic arch (IAA) and serious constriction of aortic arch (COA). The incidence rate of Trisomy 18 in the abnormal chromosome of fetal IAA is high.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of acupuncture plus ginger-partitioned moxibustion in treating diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (D-IBS). Method Ninety D-IBS patients were randomized into an acupuncture-moxibustion group (acupuncture plus ginger-partitioned moxibustion), an acupuncture group, and a Western medication group (Pinaverium bromide), 30 patients in each group. The clinical effect, symptom score, and quality of life in the 3 groups were observed. Result The general clinical effect of the acupuncture-moxibustion group was significantly higher than that of the acupuncture group and Western-medication group (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in comparing the total effective rate between the acupuncture group and acupuncture-moxibustion group (P>0.05). After treatment, the Western medication group showed marked decreases in abdominal pain, abdominal distension and discomfort, defecation property, and defecation frequency (P<0.01);the acupuncture group showed significant decreases in abdominal pain, abdominal distension and discomfort, mucous stool, and appetite (P<0.05, P<0.01); the acupuncture-moxibustion group had significant decreases in abdominal pain, abdominal distension and discomfort, defecation property, defecation frequency, mucous stool, and appetite (P<0.01). The quality of life score changed significantly in all groups after treatment (P<0.05, P<0.01);the changes of quality of life score in the acupuncture group and acupuncture-moxibustion group were both significantly higher than that in the Western-medication group (P<0.01);the change of quality of life score in the acupuncture-moxibustion group was significantly higher than that in the acupuncture group (P<0.01). Conclusion Acupuncture plus ginger-partitioned moxibustion and acupuncture alone both can produce a higher therapeutic efficacy than Pinaverium bromide in treating D-IBS; acupuncture plus ginger-partitioned moxibustion is superior to acupuncture alone.

Objective To observe the effects of low frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (LF-TMS) on the electroencephalogram (EEG),expression of NPY in hippocampus in pilocarpine (PLO)-induced epileptic rats. Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats (240-260 g) were used to establish a model of epilepsy by in- tradominal injection of pilocarpine,and then randomized into 2 groups:a control group and an intervention group. The control group was treated by sham LF-TMS,while the intervention group was treated by LF-TMS once daily for 7 days.Ⅰgroup simply celiac inject pilocarpine.Ⅱgroup celiac inject PLO after LF-TMS.The EEG was recorded in both groups and the checked pathology.Pathological item include HE staining,NPY immunohisto chemical staining. Results The latency for seizure attack was significantly lengthened,while the frequency of seizure attack and times of major seizure attack were significantly decreased in the intervention group.The HE staining revealed significant de- generation and necrosis of neurons in the hippocampus,especially in the CA3 region,in rats in the control group. The pathologic changes were significantly less severe in the intervention,Immunohistochemical staining showed a sig- nificantly higher expression of NPY in the hippocampus as compared with the intervention group. Conclusion U- sing the PLO-induced epilepsy model,LF-TMS could not only postpone the generation of kindling but also inhibit the progress of epilepsy.The increased NPY expression in the hippocampusin the intervention group implied a close rela- tionship between NPY and epilepsy attack.

Objective To evaluate the role of protein kinase C (PKC) in reduction of hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) injury by hypoxic preconditioning or norepinephrine preconditioning in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Methods Primary cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were randomly divided into 6 groups (n = 25 each): control group (group Ⅰ), H/R group (group Ⅱ), hypoxia preconditioning group (group Ⅲ), norepinephrine preconditioning group (group Ⅳ), H7 + hypoxia preconditioning group (group Ⅴ) and H7 + norepinephrine preconditioning group (group Ⅵ). In group Ⅱ , the cardiomyocytes were exposed to 3 h of hypoxia followed by 1 h of reoxygenation. In group Ⅲ, the cells were subjected to 20 min of hypoxia followed by 20 min of reoxygenation before H/R. Norepinephrine was added to the culture medium with a final concentration of 10- 7 mol/L,and then the cells were cultured for 30 min before H/R in group Ⅳ. H7 was added to the culture medium with a final concentration of 5 × 10-5 mol/L, the cells were then cultured for 10 min, and the following procedures before H/R were the same as thase described in group Ⅴ . H7 was added to the culture medium with a final concentration of 5 × 10-5 mol/L, the cells were then cultured for 10 min, and the following procedures were the same as those described in group Ⅵ. The cell survival rate, the activities of LDH and CK in the supernatant, and the content of MDA and activity of SOD in cardiomyocytes were determined. Results The cell survival rate and activity of SOD were significantly lower, while the LDH and CK activities and MDA content higher in group Ⅱ than in group Ⅰ ,in group Ⅴ than in group Ⅲ, and in group Ⅵ than in group Ⅳ (P < 0.01). The cell survival rate and activity of SOD were significantly increased, while the LDH and CK activities and MDA content decreased in group Ⅲ and Ⅳ compared with group Ⅱ (P<0.01).Conclusion The activiation of PKC is involved in the reduction of H/R injury by hypoxic preconditioning or norepinephrine preconditioning in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes.
