Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of eosinophilic lung diseases(ELD) in children to enhance pediatricians′ understanding of ELD.Methods:In this retrospective cross-sectional study, a total of 149 children with ELD were recruited from Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University between April 1, 2007 and March 31, 2022.Chi-square test, Fisher′s exact test, Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to analyze data and conclude clinical characteristics.Spearman correlation was used to analyze the correlation between eosinophils in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.Chi-square test and Kappa consistency test were used to compare the differences and consistency in diagnostic results between bronchoalveolar lavage fluid or lung biopsy and eosinophil elevation with chest imaging abnormalities. Results:(1)The isolated lung involvement was mostly caused by allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis(9 patients), and other system involvement by idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome(89 patients).(2)The main respiratory manifestations included coughing(90 cases, 60.4%) and expectoration(41 cases, 27.5%), while 23.5%(35 cases) of patients had no respiratory symptoms; 50.3% had digestive system involvement, and 40.9% had skin involvement.These were the two most commonly affected organs.(3)Spearman correlation was performed between eosinophils in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid( r=0.3, P<0.05).Chi-square test was performed to compare ELD diagnosed by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid or lung biopsy with peripheral blood eosinophilia accompanied by abnormal chest imaging( P<0.05).Kappa consistency test(Kappa<0.2) showed poor consistency between the two diagnostic methods. Conclusions:ELD are present in children, and multiple etiologies may be pathogenic.Among children with ELD, the isolated lung involvement is mainly caused by allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis.The digestive system and skin are the most commonly affected organs, except for lungs.The correlation between eosinophil levels in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is poor.

Being a hereditary bleeding disorder, hemophilia is characterized by spontaneous bleeding, especially joint bleeding. The treatment outcome is a comprehensive evaluation system of the following three aspects: bleeding, musculoskeletal structure (imaging), and function-activity participation. Multidisciplinary testing and corresponding scales are needed in the assessment. Among them, the quality of life assessment of hemophilia patients is particularly important, through general questionnaires and hemophilia-specific questionnaires. Canadian hemophilia outcomes-Kids' life assessment tool(CHO-KLAT), a special quality of life assessment tool for children with hemophilia, is the most widely used. This paper briefly describes the development and application of comprehensive evaluation system of the children with the disease.
8.The Progress in Research in Hereditary Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura in Children
JOURNAL OF RARE DISEASES 2022;1(4):400-406
Hereditary thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (hTTP) in children is a rare but severe and fatal thrombotic microangiopathy. The etiology of the disease is the persistent severe deficiency of the enzyme ADAMTS13 gene mutation, resulting in microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, neuropsychiatric symptoms, fever, and renal involvement. Different from adults, children with hTTP present earlier onset of the disease and are more likely to develop long-term complications in brain and kidney, so that the need for preventive replacement therapy is more urgent. This article reviews the research progress of hTTP in children.

A 6-year-old girl presented with recurrent skin rash at the initial stage, recent joint pain, and neutrophilia was found during a routine blood test. After a multidisciplinary case discussion, she was diagnosed with chronic neutrophil leukemia, and the symptoms were relieved after hydroxyurea and luxolitinib treatment. She received the allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation subsequently. At present, she is in stable condition and under follow-up. Chronic neutrophil leukemia is a rare disease, which rarely occurs in children. It is more difficult to diagnose in patients with skin rash as the first manifestation. The diagnosis and treatment of this case reflects the important role of multidisciplinary cooperation in the diagnosis and treatment of difficult and rare diseases.
