Abstract: Objective To compare and analyze the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of different subtypes of severe influenza in neonates to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal severe influenza. Methods A cohort of 40 neonates with severe influenza who were hospitalized in the neonatology ward of Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University between January 2019 to December 2023 were selected and divided into two groups based on the virus subtype: influenza A (n=23) and influenza B (n=17). A retrospective analysis was conducted to compare general information, clinical manifestations, auxiliary examinations, complications, and treatment outcomes of neonates with severe influenza A and B infection. Results The number of days of hospitalization was longer in cases of influenza A than that of influenza B. The proportion of neonates with severe influenza A who exhibited fever was higher than that for influenza B, and a higher percentage of those with fever had peak temperatures ranging from 38.1 ℃ to 39 ℃. Gastrointestinal symptoms, including vomiting and diarrhea leading to dehydration, were more evident in severe influenza B cases. The proportion of influenza A cases with abnormal creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme levels (>25 U/L) was higher than that of influenza B, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two types of influenza in other clinical manifestations, the incidence of pneumonia/respiratory failure complications, peripheral blood leukocyte count and classifications, the proportion of abnormal aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (>40 U/L), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) (>40 U/L), and creatine kinase (CK) (>200 U/L), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) values (all P>0.05). In terms of treatment, neonates treated with Oseltamivir within 48 hours of onset mainly suffered from influenza A. Among those treated with Oseltamivir, the proportion of influenza A cases whose body temperature returned to normal within 24 hours was relatively higher, whereas, for those whose temperature returned to normal within 24-72 hours, the proportion was relatively higher in influenza B cases. These differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions Severe neonatal influenza usually occurs in winter and spring. After severe infection, fever is more obvious in neonates with influenza A, which is more likely to cause myocardial cell damage. Neonates with influenza A can be treated with Oseltamivir earlier and return to normal body temperature faster than those with influenza B after Oseltamivir treatment. Gastrointestinal symptoms are more common in neonates with severe influenza B.

Objective To investigate the clinical data of pediatric community-acquired necrotizing pneumonia (NP) in 2023, summarizing its clinical characteristics and pathogen profile distribution. Methods The clinical data of hospitalized children with NP in 2023 at Henan Children's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Comparisons were made with those in the non-NP group to summarize the clinical symptoms, pathogenetic features, laboratory indices and imaging changes, treatment, and prognosis. Results Among the 133 NP cases, there were 64 males and 69 females, with a median age of 7 years. In the non-NP group, there were 61 cases, including 38 males and 23 females, with a median age of 6. The NP group showed significantly higher proportions of chest pain, dyspnea, poor mental response, refusal of food/dehydration signs, and extrapulmonary complications compared to the non-NP group (P<0.05). The hospitalization duration of NP children was 18 days, with a fever duration of 12 days. They had a peripheral blood leukocyte count of 11.44×109/L, C-reactive protein of 37.44 mg/L, procalcitonin of 0.207 ng/mL, blood sedimentation of 40 mm/h, D-dimer of 1.99 μg/mL, lactate dehydrogenase of 455 U/L, and serum ferritin of 233.8 μg/L, all significantly higher compared to the non-NP group (P<0.05). Enhanced chest CT in the NP group revealed necrotic foci on the (17.47±6.56) day of the disease, with some cases complicated by pleural effusion, pleural thickening, bronchial stenosis or dilatation, pulmonary atelectasis, pulmonary embolism, etc., accompanied by different degrees of impaired lung function. Bronchoscopy revealed mucosal congestion and edema, with some showing mucosal erosion and necrosis, phlegm thrombus obstruction, and rice soup-like secretions. Pathogens were detected in 129 (97.0%) children in the NP group, with the top five infectious agents being Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Streptococcus pneumoniae, adenovirus, rhinovirus, and influenza B virus. There were 76 cases (57.1%) of single pathogen infection, and 53 cases (39.8%) of mixed infection. The mixed infection group had higher peripheral blood leukocyte counts, poor mental response, refusal of food/dehydration signs, extrapulmonary complications, and application of gamma globulin compared to the non-mixed infection group (P<0.05). The prognosis was generally good after anti-infective and symptomatic supportive treatment, with some cases having residual respiratory sequelae. Conclusions Children with NP have a long course of disease, high inflammatory indexes, and are prone to intrapulmonary and extrapulmonary complications and lung function impairment. Chest CT enhancement scanning and bronchoscopy are helpful for early recognition of NP. The pathogen of NP infections in 2023 is dominated by drug-resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae, with some children experiencing multi-pathogen mixed infections. The prognosis is generally good with aggressive treatment.

Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia is an important component of community-acquired pneumonia, which can cause severe extrapulmonary complications of digestive, cardiovascular, blood, urinary and other systems.Accurate and effective biomarkers are significant for the diagnosis and treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.Recent studies have shown that new biomarkers such as IL-35, IL-17, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR) and S100 protein are involved in the development of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.In order to provide reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia, this paper reviews the progress of new biomarkers in Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.

OBJECTIVE: To provide reference for reasonable selection of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients with BCR-ABL35INS mutation. METHODS: Using “BCR-ABL insertional mutation” “ABL1 35ins mutation” “BCR-ABL c.1423_1424ins35” “ABL1 p.C475Tyrfs*11” as keywords, retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang database, Medline and COSMIC database, BCR-ABL35INS mutation CML patients were summarized and analyzed in respects of general information and treatment (treatment plan, patient compliance and drug withdrawal), therapeutic effect (molecular biological mitigation and disease progress) and safety data (ADR) during 2007-2018. RESULTS: Totally 9 related literatures were included, involving 70 patients with BCR-ABL35INS mutation, all of them were foreign cases. Among them, 39 cases were male and 31 cases were female, with a median age of 49.2 years. The median time from the diagnosis of CML to the detection of BCR-ABL35INS mutation was 19 months. After detecting gene mutation, 39 cases were treated with imatinib (initial dose of 400 mg, po, once a day), and molecular biological remission was achieved in 5 patients (12.9%); 15 cases (38.5%) had molecular biological response but had disease progression; 8 patients (20.5%) had no response. Seventeen patients were treated with dasatinib (100 mg, po, once a day or 2 divided dose), and 8 cases (47.1%) achieved molecular biological response. Twenty-one patients were treated with nilotinib (400 mg, po, 2 divided dose), and 3 patients (14.3%) achieved molecular biological response; 2 patients achieved molecular biological response, but the disease progressed. Seven, three and seven of these patients stopped taking drugs due to adverse reactions, accounting for 17.9%, 17.6% and 33.3% respectively. All the ADRs were classified as grade 3-4 of the National Cancer Institute’s Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, and most of them were hematological toxicity. CONCLUSIONS: CML patients with BCR-ABL35INS mutation are less likely to achieve molecular response on imatinib therapy but are more sensitive to dashatinib. In the course of treatment, we should strengthen the monitoring of blood system and other related indicators to ensure the safety and effectiveness of drug use.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the effect of CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism on lansoprazole pharmacoki-netics,and provide evidence-based reference for clinical individualized medication of lansoprazole. METHODS:Retrieved from PubMed,EMBase,Web of science,Cochrane Library and CJFD,retrospective studies about the effect of CYP2C19 genetic poly-morphism on lansoprazole pharmacokinetics were collected,Meta-analysis was performed by Rev Man 5.2 software after data ex-tract and quality evaluation. RESULTS:Totally 11 retrospective studies were included,involving 200 patients. The gene type in-cluded homozygote express metabolizers (EM),heterozygous express metabolizers (HEM) and slow metabolizers (PM). Results of Meta-analysis showed CYP2C19 polymorphism significantly affected cmax,AUC,t1/2,tmax and CL/F. The cmax and AUC in group PM were higher than group HEM and group EM;CL/F in group EM was higher than group HEM and group PM;t1/2 in group PM was higher than group HEM and group EM,while there was no significant difference in the t1/2 between group HEM and group EM;tmax in HEM and group PM were higher than group EM,while there was no significant difference in the tmax between group PM and group HEM. CONCLUSIONS:CYP2C19 genetic polymorphism shows obvious effect on lansoprazole pharmacokinetics, which is the key factor for causing efficacy of lansoprazole and individual differences among adverse reactions,and clinic should take into account individualized dose regimen of lansoprazole.
