ABSTRACT

Streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (STSS) is a Group A Streptococcus (GAS) induced invasive infectious disease, which is characterized by abrupt onset and rapid progression with a high mortality rate.With the wide application of antimicrobial agents, the incidence of GAS infections has been substantially reduced.Nevertheless, STSS usually causes shock and multiple organ failure at the early stage of its clinical process, and the clinical symptoms are non-specific.Therefore, early identification, timely anti-infection and symptomatic treatment are particularly critical.Clinicians should pay high attention to the disease.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors of postinfectious bronchiolitis obliterans(PIBO)after severe adenovirus pneumonia(SAP).Methods:We retrospectivly analyzed 78 children who were hospitalized for SAP at Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from April 2015 to April 2020.The cases were divided into PIBO group( n=26) and non-PIBO group( n=52) based on the diagnosis results.The general conditions, clinical characteristics, and laboratory data from two groups were analyzed, and the risk factors for PIBO were explored. Results:A total of 78 children were included in this study.There were 18 (69.2%) males and eight (30.8%) females in PIBO group; the average age of onset in PIBO group was younger than that in non-PIBO group[(11.77±3.24)months vs.(15.08±6.48)months, P=0.027]. The cough duration[(11.35±7.35)days vs.(7.15±5.67)days, P=0.010], and heat duration[(13.12±6.78)days vs.(8.62±4.76)days, P=0.007] were longer in PIBO group than those in non-PIBO group.The white blood cell count[(12.46±7.23)×10 9/L vs.(9.17±3.66)×10 9/L), P<0.05], platelet count[(390.12±209.03)×10 9/L vs.(284.69±83.33)10 9/L, P<0.05], C-reactive protein[(37.04±32.16)mg/L vs.(18.14±18.33)mg/L, P<0.05], procalcitonin[(3.51±3.33)μg/L vs.(1.09±1.37)μg/L, P<0.05], lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)[(1 155.88±842.94)IU/L vs.(414.00±218.94)IU/L, P<0.01] were all higher in PIBO group than those in non-PIBO group; The roportion of patients with mycoplasma pneumoniae infection[5(19.2%) cases vs.4(7.7%) cases, P<0.05], admitted to PICU[18(69.2%) cases vs.8(15.4%) cases, P<0.01] , using invasive mechanical ventilation[10(38.5%) cases vs.5(9.6%) cases, P<0.01], using hormones[23(88.5%) cases vs.21(40.4%) cases, P<0.01], and using human immunoglobulin[20 (76.9%) cases vs.10(19.2%) cases, P<0.01] were higher in PIBO group than those in non-PIBO group.The multivariate Logistic regression using stepwise method showed that older age ( OR=0.942, 95% CI 0.890-0.997) was a protective factor for PIBO, while higher LDH levels ( OR=1.005, 95% CI 1.002-1.008), using intravenous corticosteroids ( OR=6.622, 95% CI 0.924-47.436), and using human immunoglobulin ( OR=9.681, 95% CI 1.742-53.802) were the risk factors for PIBO in SAP ( P<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic curve was constructed through the combination of age of onset, LDH level, using intravenous hormone, and using human immunoglobulin.The area under the curve reached 0.954.The overall best cut-off value of the prediction model was 0.272, the sensitivity was 92.3%, and the specificity was 86.5%.When LDH=462 IU/L, the area under the curve reached the maximum value of 0.882, the sensitivity was 100.0%, and the specificity was 61.5%. Conclusion:SAP children with characteristics such as younger age, long cough and fever duration, high inflammatory index, LDH level higher than 462 IU/L, admitted to PICU, mechanical ventilation and need hormones and human immunoglobulin, should be alert to the risk of PIBO.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the effect of HOXD3 expression on the stem cell-like characteristics of breast cancer cells and the relationship between HOXD3 expression and multi-drug resistance in breast cancer cells. Methods: From January 2006 to December 2008, 87 specimens of breast cancer patients from the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Harbin Medical University were collected. The ex-pression of HOXD3 in breast cancer cells and tissues was detected by immunohistochemical staining method. The expression levels of HOXD3 in CDDP or DOX-resistant cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-435 were detected by RT-PCR, Western blot and immunofluo-rescence staining. The effect of HOXD3 overexpression on the expression levels of stem cell biomarkers in breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-435 was analyzed. MTT assay and colony formation assay were used to demonstrate the role of HOXD3 in che-motherapy resistance of breast cancer cells. Results: The relative expression of HOXD3 mRNA in breast cancer was 4.16, which was sig-nificantly higher than 2.05 in normal tissues adjacent to cancer; the relative expression levels of HOXD3 mRNA in breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231, MDA-MBB-435 and MCF-7 were 3.25, 2.84 and 2.23, which were all higher than 1.00 in normal breast epithelial cell line MCF-10A ( all P<0.05 ). The IC50s of MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-435 cell lines resistant to CDDP or DOX were (20.82±0.05) μmol/L, (19.69±0.47) μmol/L, (32.26±0.23) mmol/L and (26.08±0.55) mmol/L, respectively. Both were higher than the corresponding original cell lines (all P<0.05), and the drug resistance times were 2.47 and 3.10 or 1.86 and 2.08, respectively. The number of tumor spheres and stem cell biomarker expression levels of MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-435 with HOXD3 overexpression were significantly in-creased (all P<0.05). Conclusions: The expression of HOXD3 plays an important role in the maintenance of stem cell-like properties and drug resistance of breast cancer cells. The results of this study will help us better understand the complexity of breast cancer and pro-vide a theoretical basis for the development of targeted molecular therapy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the clinical features of nephrotic syndrome combined with H1N1 influenza. Methods The clinical manifestations, laboratory and image examinations, treatment, and prognosis of nephrotic syndrome combined H1N1 influenza were retrospectively analyzed in 15 children with. Results All of 15 children with nephrotic syndrome met the diagnostic criteria of H1N1 influenza. The median age of all children was 4-year-8-month old (2-year-2-month to 6-year-9-month). All children were treated with hormone alone or combined with other immunosuppressive drugs. Three cases were severe and another 5 cases were critically ill. Four cases were complicated with recurrence of nephrotic syndrome, 2 of which suffered from acute renal insufficiency. All children were given oseltamivir as antiviral treatment at admission. Four cases took oseltamivir within 48 hours of onset and showed mild symptoms. Fourteen children with H1N1I influenza were cured, their urinary proteins were significantly decreased or converted to negative, and the median hospital stay was 8 days (1 to 25 days). One child died of acute necrotizing encephalopathy and brain herniation. Conclusions Children with nephrotic syndrome are susceptible to severe or critical H1N1 influenza infections. During the epidemic of H1N1 influenza, the clinical preventive measures should be taken in children with nephrotic syndrome.

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the expression level of serum procalcitonin( PCT) and clinical val-ue in acute viral diarrhea patients. Methods A total of 186 patients with acute viral diarrhea treated in our hospital from September 2013 to September 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. One hundred and seven were male and 79 were female,of which 171 cases were infected by rotavirus and 15 cases infected by norovirus. The average age was ( 1. 29 ± 0. 89 ) years old. All patients′ blood and stool cultures were negative. The patients were divided into three groups according to the degree of dehydration and whether complicated with multiple organ dysfunction or not:severe group( complicated with severe dehydration,shock or multiple organ dysfunction,n=33),mild-moderate dehydration group(n=68) and no dehydration group(n=85). Thirty-five healthy children with the same age were enrolled as the control group. Serum PCT levels,high sensitivity CRP(hs CRP) and blood routine were detected. Results The serum PCT levels increased in 73 patients with acute viral diarrhea,8 cases>100 ng/ml,21 cases 5 to 100 ng/ml and 44 cases 0. 5 to 5. 0 ng/ml. PCT( ng/ml)[0. 36(0. 14,1. 67),hsCRP(mg/L)[3. 50(0. 70,14. 83)] and WBC( × 109/L)[9. 06(6. 79,12. 50)] levels increased in the diarrhea patients compared with those in the healthy group[0. 09(0. 05,0. 13);1. 00 (0.40,2.50);6.90(5.90,8.20)](all P 0. 05 ) . Conclusion PCT can increase in pediatric patients with acute viral diarrhea,especially in those with severe dehydration,shock and organ dysfunction. Continued high levels of PCT indicates critical condition and has poor prognosis. PCT can be used as a good indicator to evaluate the severity of disease and the prognosis.
