Objective To estimate the degree of oxidative stress and atherosclerosis praecox in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and emphasize on exploring AOPPs' clinical significance in premature atherosclerosis in SLE. Methods The levels of AOPPs, Hey, MDA, SOD, baPMV and CIMT were detected by ELISA and spectropholometry in 44 non-menopausal female SLE patients and 31 healthy middle-aged women respectively, and baPWV. The results were compared with AOPPs of the two groups. Then each group was stratified based on disease duration (≥5 years or <5 years) and the disease activity(active and inactive) in SLE patients. The patients' TC, TG, LDL were analyzed. T test, t' test and Pearson correla-tion were selected. Results The levels of AOPPs, Hcy, MDA in SLE patients were significantly higher than those of the healthy controls (P<0.05). The activities of SOD were lower than controls (P<0.05). The levels of AOPPs, Hcy, MDA, SOD had statistical significance between SLE patients disease duration ≥5 years or <5 years, active or inactive groups. There were two cases with CAP in patients with SLE (more than 5 years disease duration),while there wasnone in healthy controls. The levels of baPWV and CIMT in patients with SLE were higher than healthy controls (P<0.05), and had statistical significance in SLE patients disease duration more than or less than 5 years (P<0.05). The oxidative stress targets (AOPPs, Hey, MDA, SOD) had significant correlation with the level of baPWV and CIMT (P<0.01). The level of serum AOPPs had significant positive correlation with the levels of Hcy, TC, TG and LDL (P<0.01~0.05). Conclusion SLE patients have increased oxidative stress , and significantly higher prevalence of atherosclerosis than healthy controls. The disease duration and oxidative stress play important roles in the duration of atherosclerosis. AOPPs probably involves in the accelerated atherosclerosis of SLE patients. It may be a predictor for SLE complicated with atherosclerosis praecox.

Objective To compare the clinical effect of different doses of methylprednisolone in the treatment of children with severe hand foot mouth disease research and analysis. Methods 100 patients in our hospital from January 2014 to August 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group, with 50 patients in each group. The control group were treated with small doses of methylprednisolone, 2 mg/ (kg?d), intravenous injection. The experimental group was treated with large dose of methylprednisolone, 10~15 mg/(kg?d) intravenous infusion. The therapeutic effects of the experimental group and the control group were compared and analyzed. Results after the corresponding treatment, the number of adverse reactions in the experimental group was 31, the adverse reaction rate was 62.0%, and the adverse reaction rate in the control group was 60.0%. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups. The upper respiratory rate and critical illness in the experimental group were 26.0% and 32.0%, significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). The average remission time of the patients in the experimental group was (2.19±1.01) days. The symptomatic remission time in the control group was (4.19±1.89) days. The remission time of the control group was significantly longer than that of the experimental group, with statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion The short term large dose of methylprednisolone in treatment of children with severe HFMD clinical effect is ideal, can be reduced to critical illness rate, less symptom remission time, with the further promotion of the clinical significance.
