RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the clinical features of children with infectious mononucleosis (IM), to compare the difference of therapeutic effects between general treatment to antiviral therapy for IM.@*Methods@#This prospective study analyzed the clinical data and laboratory test results of 201 cases with IM in our hospital from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016. The follow-up period was 6-12 months. The patients were divided into two groups according to the order of admission. The clinical symptoms and laboratory test results of the two groups were observed after hospitalization.@*Results@#Of the total of 201 patients, male to female is 1.72∶1; Age: 8 months to 13 years 6 months (average 4.8±2.8 years), The disease frequently occurred in summer and autumn, accounted for 64.18%.The major clinical manifestations was fever (97.51%), angina (79.10%), enlarged of lymph node(68.66%), eyelid swelling (67.16%), hepatomegaly (53.73%) and splenomegaly (46.77%). There was no statistical difference in duration of fever, improved angina time, lymph nodes(liver, spleen) enlargement recovery time, heterotypic lymphocytes normalization time, lymphocyte function normalization time.There was significant difference in reducing the serum/plasma or total blood EBV-DNA in the short term between antiviral group and general treatment group (P<0.01), but for the long-term reduction of EBV-DNA, there was no significant difference (P>0.05). The low affinity EBV-CA-IgG was converted to high affinity EBV-CA-IgG in 89.41% of patients after 3 months and in 98.68% of patients after 6 months. With the recovery of the disease, the positive rate of EBV-CA-IgM and EBV-EA-IgG decreased. But the positive rate of EBV-NA-IgG increased. Serum/plasma EBV-DNA was completely overcast after 3 months, but after 12 months, the patient’s total blood EBV-DNA positive rate was still 71.11%.@*Conclusions@#In general IM patients, there was no significant difference between antiviral therapy and general treatment, so antiviral therapy is not generally recommended. EBV DNA in the whole blood of patients with IM will continue to be positive more than 6-12 months, indicating that to observe changes of IM should not use whole blood samples for EBV DNA testing.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To explore the changes of mTOR signal pathway in HeLa cells under different nutritional conditions infected with Coxsackie virus B3 (CVB3).@*METHODS@#The HeLa cells were cultured with two methods: the conventional culture method cultured HeLa cells with medium with 10% fetal bovine serum for 24 h and changed the medium next day, and then infected with CVB3; the serum starvation method cultured HeLa cells with medium without fetal bovine serum for 24 h, and then infected with CVB3. The expression of the coat protein of CVB3, mTOR, p70S6K mRNA was detected with RT-PCR at different time points.@*RESULTS@#The virus group showed the expressions of mTOR and p70S6K mRNA were significantly higher than those in the control group at 12 h and 24 h (P0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#CVB3 can down-regulate the expressions of mTOR and p70S6K mRNA. The mTOR expression in the starvation serum is higher than that in the conventional culture.
