Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of combined lienal polypeptide injection therapy in the treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)in children aged 3 to 14 years old in multiple clinical centers.Methods:A randomized,controlled,multi-center clinical study design was adopted.A total of 240 hospitalized children aged 3 to 14 years old with MPP from 7 hospitals from September 1,2023 to January 31,2024 were included.According to the severity of pneumonia,they were divided into the mild MPP group with 80 cases and the severe MPP/refractory MPP(SMPP/RMPP)group with 160 cases,and then randomly divided into the control group and the experimental group at a ratio of 1 ∶1,using the random number table method.After screening,subjects entered a treatment period of 5 to 7 days.The control group was treated with azithromycin,while the experimental group was treated with azithromycin plus lienal polypeptide injection .The recovery of lung CT,length of hospital stay,duration of fever,cough score,whether mild cases developed into severe or refractory cases,duration of hormone use,use of intravenous immunoglobulin(IVIG),bronchoscopy treatment,and immune function were observed between the two groups to evaluate the efficacy of lienal polypeptide injection.Adverse events after medication,vital signs,blood routine,urine routine,liver function,myocardial enzymes,renal function,and electrocardiogram were observed to evaluate the safety. Results:A total of 231 subjects have completed the trial in the 7 hospitals,including 118 cases in the experimental group and 113 cases in the control group.Main observation index:the rate of lung CT aggravation in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group(2.6% vs 15.3%, P<0.01),and the difference was statistically significant.Secondary indexes:there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay,duration of fever,cough score,duration of hormone use,whether IVIG treatment was used,the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases,and immunoglobulin between the two groups(all P>0.05).However,the rate of cases of plastic bronchitis(PB)found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group(0 vs 18.8%, P=0.03),and the difference was statistically significant.Among the mild MPP(72 cases),there were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay,duration of fever,cough score,duration of hormone use,whether IVIG treatment was used,the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases,and the improvement rate of lung CT between the two groups(all P>0.05).However,compared with the control group,the rate of cases developing into SMPP/RMPP in the experimental group was less(24.3% vs 48.6%, P=0.03),and the difference in IgG before and after treatment was small[0.53(-0.04,1.18)g/L vs 1.33(0.48,2.25)g/L, P=0.01].Among the SMPP/RMPP cases(159 cases),the rate of cases of PB found under bronchoscopy in the experimental group was less than that in the control group(0 vs 20%, P=0.04),and the rate of cases with aggravated lung CT in the experimental group was less than that in the control group(1.3% vs 19.5%, P<0.01),and the improvement rate of lung CT in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group(88.8% vs 75.3%, P=0.03),with statistically significant differences.There were no statistically significant differences in the length of hospital stay,duration of fever,cough score,duration of hormone use,whether IVIG treatment was used,the number of bronchoscopy treatment cases,and immunoglobulin between the two groups(all P>0.05).Two cases in the experimental group developed rashes,which improved after the drug was discontinued.There were no serious adverse reactions such as abnormal vital signs like dyspnea and cyanosis due to the use of lienal polypeptide injection.There were no obvious changes in blood routine,liver function,myocardial enzymes,renal function,electrocardiogram,and urine routine values before and after medication compared with the baseline. Conclusion:The combined use of lienal polypeptide injection in the treatment of MPP in children can reduce the probability of the transformation from mild cases to SMPP/RMPP,reduce the rate of aggravation of the image findings,promote the absorption of lung inflammation,reduce the rate of PB found under bronchoscopy,and has good safety.

Background and purpose:Thyroid dysfunction can frequently be discovered in breast cancer patients during long-term follow-up after receiving post-operative radiation therapy(PORT).This study aimed to compare serum levels of thyroid transcription factors(TTFs)TTF-1 and paired box 8(PAX-8)before and after PORT in breast cancer patients,combined with the results of serological thyroid indicators tests,and to analyze the relationship between the changes in serum levels of these two kinds of TTFs and thyroid dysfunction after breast cancer PORT.Methods:Female breast cancer patients without thyroid disease records who received PORT in Department of Radiation Oncology,Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital Huangpu Branch,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from Jan.2022 to Jun.2022 were prospectively selected,and were divided into two groups according to being with or without supraclavicular radiation field.All the patients had given informed consent before joining the study.The study design was approved by the ethic committee of our hospital(Ethic Approval No.2021-KY-2).Serum levels of TTF-1 and PAX-8,serological thyroid indicators[triiodothyronine(T3),tetraiodothyronine(T4),free triiodothyronine(FT3),free tetraiodothyronine(FT4),thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH)and thyroid peroxidase antibody(TPO-Ab)]were recorded before PORT,at the end of PORT,6,12 and 24 months after the end of PORT,respectively.The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology(STROBE)checklist was followed for this study.Results:Eighty patients were enrolled in this study(40 in each group).A total of 19 patients who had hypothyroidism were divided in two groups,15 in supraclavicular field group(SC group)and 4 in non-supraclavicular field group(NSC group),respectively(P=0.004).Levels of TTF-1[5.70(5.11,7.13)vs 6.68(5.15,7.57),P=0.296]and PAX-8(5.26±1.01 vs 5.66±1.37,P=0.149)did not show statistically significant deference between two groups before PORT.In SC group,levels of TTF-1 and PAX-8 gradually rose in 12 months after the end of PORT.In NCS group,levels of TTF-1 and PAX-8 did not change significantly during 24 months after the end of PORT.Test results of serum TTF-1 between two groups were statistically different at 6 months[6.99(4.73,13.94)vs 5.79(5.01,6.28),P=0.049],12 months[7.65(5.02,17.85)vs 5.43(4.52,6.22),P=0.005]after the end of PORT,while test results of serum PAX-8 between two groups were statistically different at 12 months[6.79(4.86,14.30)vs 5.81(4.70,7.25),P=0.042]after the end of PORT.The median values of TTF-1 and PAX-8 test results at 12 months after the end of PORT in SC group which were both significantly higher compared with NSC group were selected as the referent thresholds.Patients in SC group whose test results were higher than referent thresholds were defined as TTF-1/PAX-8 elevating subgroups,and patients whose test results under the threshold defined as TTF-1/PAX-8 normal subgroups.The incidences of hypothyroidism were higher in elevation subgroups than in normal subgroups(65.0%vs 10.0%,60.0%vs 15.0%,respectively,P=0.001,P=0.008,respectively).Positive correlations were observed between the elevation of TTF-1/PAX-8 at 12 months after the end of PORT and hypothyroidism after breast cancer supraclavicular field radiation(OR=9.702,3.930,and P=0.020,0.046,respectively)according to multivariate analysis.Conclusion:Thyroid dysfunction after breast cancer PORT was mainly manifested with hypothyroidism;supraclavicular field radiation may significantly increase the incidence of hypothyroidism;serum levels of TTF-1 and PAX-8 elevated obviously in breast cancer PORT patients who had hypothyroidism after receiving supraclavicular field radiation.
