RESUMO
ObjectiveTo investigate the pathogenic spectrum and molecular characteristics of infectious diarrhea among children in Putuo District of Shanghai from 2018 to 2023， and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of infectious diarrhea in children. MethodsFecal samples from the cases visited sentinel hospitals for children’s diarrheal disease in Putuo District， Shanghai， were collected from January 2018 to December 2023. A total of 11 species of bacteria were isolated and cultured， and 5 species of viruses were detected by real-time fluorescent polymerase chain reaction （PCR）. The molecular typing of some positive strains was analyzed by the standard pulsed-field gel electrophoresis （PFGE） method. The polymerase-capsid protein linkage region of some norovirus-positive samples was amplified by reverse transcription PCR， and was sequenced and analyzed by bioinformatics software. The Chi-square test and Fisher’s exact probability test were used to compare the pathogen-positive rates in 2018‒2019 and 2020‒2023. ResultsOf the 707 cases of children with infectious diarrhea， the total positive rate was 47.67%， with a single bacterial positivity rate of 16.27%， a single viral positivity rate of 22.63%， and a mixed positivity rate of 8.77%， respectively. The dominant pathogens were rotavirus （10.75%）， norovirus （10.33%）， enteropathogenic Escherichia coli （8.06%）， Salmonella （6.36%）， enteroaggregative Escherichia coli （5.52%）， and Campylobacter （5.23%）. Bacterial infections were predominant in summer and fall， and viral infections were predominant in winter and spring. The total positive rate decreased in 2020‒2023 compared with that of 2018‒2019 （χ2=5.753，P<0.05）. Thirty-seven strains of Salmonella， 81 strains of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli， and 19 strains of Campylobacter were completed for the molecular typing analysis by PFGE， which were classified into 28， 80 and 18 banding types， respectively， with a wide range of banding similarity. Nineteen copies of norovirus GⅡ group gene sequences were analyzed and classified into 5 genotypes， which were mainly GⅡ.Pe-GⅡ.4 and GⅡ.P16-GⅡ.2 types. ConclusionRotavirus， norovirus， diarrheagenic Escherichia coli， Salmonella， and Campylobacter are the dominant pathogens of infectious diarrhea in children in Putuo District of Shanghai. The pathogen spectrum shows a trend of seasonal epidemic characteristics， with a diversity of molecular characteristics of some pathogens. Surveillance and monitoring on molecular characteristics of the pathogens of infectious diarrhea in children should be strengthened in different seasons， so as to provide a laboratory basis for the prevention and control of infectious diarrhea.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the effects of Banxia Xiexin Decoction on intestinal microbes and 5-HT in ulcerative colitis(UC)model mice induced by drinking sodium dextran sulfate(DSS),and to analyze the mechanism of Banxia Xiexin Decoction in treating UC from the perspective of brain-gut axis.Methods 40 male C57BL6/J mice were randomly divided into control group,model group,positive drug(mesalazine)group and Banxia Xiexin decoction group.All mice except control group were induced by 2.5%DSS solution for 7 days to establish UC model.From the 8th day,mice in the above groups were given intragastric administration of sterilized water,mesalazine aqueous solution and Banxia Xiexin decoction aqueous solution.HE staining was used to observe histopathological changes of colon,ELISA to detect 5-HT content in serum,colon and brain tissues,and 16S rRNA sequencing to further detect the changes of fecal flora in model mice.Results Compared with model group,DAI index of experimental mice model group was significantly decreased after Banxia Xiexin Decoction intervention(P<0.05);IL-2,IL-4 and IFN-γ were significantly recovered(P<0.05).The histopathological score of proximal and distal colon was significantly decreased(P<0.01).Moreover,the peripheral 5-HT level was significantly decreased(P<0.05),but the central had an increasing trend.Results of intestinal flora showed that the relative abundance of Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1,unclassified_p__Firmicutes increased(P<0.05),while Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group,Lachnoclostridium,norank_f__Oscillospiraceae and Eubacterium_xylanophilum_group decreased(P<0.05).It was also found that there were significant correlations between intestinal microflora and peripheral and central 5-HT levels.Conclusion Banxia Xiexin Decoction could play a role in treating ulcerative colitis by improving the intestinal microbial composition structure of UC mice to reduce peripheral 5-HT levels and increase central 5-HT levels,thereby improving intestinal inflammatory response and relieving anxiety.
