On the whole， the emotional tendency of the Internet public towards each topic showed a low positive and high negative tendency. CONCLUSIONS The public paid more attention to the price， research and development， supply and demand of rare disease drugs， and was deeply worried about the current medical status of rare diseases in China. To strengthen and improve the medical security for patients with rare diseases， such as actively carrying out public health services for rare diseases， strengthening cooperation in the diagnosis and treatment of rare diseases， and researching rare disease drugs， etc. Chinese medical and health departments can make concerted efforts in medical and health services， drug supply security， medical security and other social security.

Objective:Four cases with NLRP3-related autoinflammatory diseases were reported to summarize the clinical characteristics, genotype, and treatment responses of the disease, and to improve clinical pediatricians' understanding of the disease.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 4 cases with NLRP3-related autoinflammatory diseases diagnosed in Children's Hospital of Anhui Province in 2016—2021, and the clinical features and treatment progress of NLRP3-related autoinflammatory diseases were retrospectively analyzed based on the clinical features, gene reports, and literature review.Results:① All 4 cases were male. Cases 1, 2, and 3 had the disease onset after birth, and case 4 had the disease onset 6 months after birth. All showed periodic fever, repeated urticaria-like rash, protruding forehead, and saddle nose. White blood cells count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and C-reactive protein were increased during the attack period, and those in the interval period were normal, and antibiotic treatment was ineffective. ② The genetic test of all these 4 children showed NLRP3 mutation. Children 1, 2, and 3 were heterozygous mutations, and their parents were wild-type. The mutation was located at chromosome Chr1: 247587658, exon c913 (exon3). G>A, the 305th aspartic acid (Asp) of the protein was changed to asparagine (Asn) in child 1. The mutation was located at the chromosomal Chr1: 247588072, the nucleic acid was changed to c1327(exon3)T>C, and the amino acid was changed to p.Y443H in cases 2 and 3. Somatic heterozygous mutation was found in case 4, and the child's parents were wild-type. In this case, the mutation was located at chromosomal Chr1: 247587658, exon3 G>A, and the 305th Asp of the protein was changed to Asn. ③Children in cases 1, 2, and 3 were treated with glucocorticoids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs at the initial stage, but the effects were limited. After receiving IL-1 antagonist treatment fever, skin rash, joint swelling and pain disappeared, and the inflammatory indexes were returned to normal. The child 4 received non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and methotrexate, but he failed to respond to the treatment. Treatment with tocilizumab was not effective, however, fever, skin rash, or joint pain disappeared after treated with Khanna.Conclusion:①NLRP3-related autoinflammatory diseases can cause periodic fever, urticaria, joint involvement, and severe involvement of the central nervous system and organ amyloidosis. Which are early misdiagnosis is prone to systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. ②The disease was an inflammatory disease mediated by interleukin-1. At present, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, glucocorticoid and chronic anti-rheumatic drugs have limited effects. IL-1 antagonists are effective and safe in the treatment of the disease.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemic characteristics and trend of mosquito vectors related to Japanese encephalitis （JE） in Mengla County， and to provide scientific evidence for JE prevention and control. MethodsThe JE related mosquito vector monitoring data in Mengla County from 2016 to 2020 were collected and subjected to further statistical analysis. ResultsA total of 1 689 mosquitoes were captured at the JE mosquito vector monitoring sites in Mengla County， 36.3% of which were captured in 2020 and 13.3% in 2017. The density of Culex tritaeniorhynchus was the highest （3.04 per lamp per day）， and that of Anopheles sinensis was the lowest （1.03 per lamp per day）. The distribution of mosquito species showed significant difference in the same year. The mosquito density in pig house was 12.93 per lamp∙day， and that in human house was 4.67 per lamp∙day. The mosquito density of different mosquito species in pig house was higher than that in human house. There was no significant difference in the site distribution of Anopheles sinensis， but there were significant differences in the site distribution of Culex tritaeniorhynchus， Culex pipiens quinquefasciatus and other mosquito species. The mosquito density peaked in May （12.78 per lamp per day） and July （10.28 per lamp per day）. The temporal distribution showed that the vector density decreased gradually from May to October， however， the species population structure also varied significantly， and the trends of each mosquito species also varied greatly. In Mengla， Culex tritaeniorhynchus peaked in May. ConclusionThe JE epidemic situation in Mengla County is still severe. It is recommended to strengthen prevention and control in the peak season of mosquito activities， such as actively carrying out patriotic health campaigns， and effective public education. At the same time， we should also strengthen the JE vaccination for school-age children and the training of medical personnel.
