OBJECTIVE:To investigate efficacy of standardized treatment for post-infectious bronchiolitis obliterans (PIBO) in infants and young children by evaluating changes in pulmonary function, and high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) before and after treatment. METHODS:Thirty infants diagnosed with PIBO were treated with a two-phase protocol consisting of an intensive phase and a maintenance phase, including budesonide, azithromycin, montelukast, fluticasone propionate, and terbutaline sulfate. Pulmonary function was evaluated using TPTEF/TE, VPEF/VE, and impulse oscillometry (IOS). Imaging evaluation was performed using HRCT. RESULTS:Daytime respiratory symptoms significantly improved after 3 months of treatment (P < 0.05). Nocturnal symptoms and exercise-related limitations showed significant improvement after 6 months (P < 0.05) and 9 months (P < 0.05), respectively. The frequency of respiratory tract infections was significantly reduced after 12 months of continuous treatment (P < 0.05). Pulmonary function indices demonstrated significant improvement by the 9th month (P < 0.05). HRCT scores improved significantly, decreasing from 6 ± 1.08 at baseline to 4.5 ± 1.98 after 12 months of treatment (P < 0.05). Mosaic perfusion significantly improved at 6 months (P < 0.05), while emphysematous changes required 9 months of treatment to show significant improvement (P < 0.05). Structural abnormalities such as bronchiectasis, bronchial wall thickening, atelectasis, and peribronchial vascular bundle changes showed partial improvement after 12 months, but these differences did not reach statistical significance (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION:Standardized treatment for PIBO should be maintained for at least 9-12 months to achieve significant improvements in clinical symptoms, pulmonary function, and HRCT findings.
OBJECTIVES:To investigate the influencing factors for asthma management and asthma control level in children. METHODS:A total of 202 children with a confirmed diagnosis of asthma were enrolled. The questionnaire of asthma control level and family management was used to investigate the influencing factors for asthma control level and the indicators of family management. The awareness of childhood asthma and its management was analyzed among the parents, as well as the influence on asthma control level in children, and the association between them was analyzed. RESULTS:Compared with the non-complete control group, the complete control group had significantly longer course of asthma and treatment time (P<0.05). The proportions of asthma attacks ≥3 times and aerosol treatment for asthma attacks >3 times in one year in the complete control group were significantly lower than those in the non-complete control group (P<0.05). The complete control group had a significantly lower proportion of children with frequent respiratory infection, wheezing during respiratory infection, or a family history of allergic diseases (P<0.05). The parents in the complete control group had significantly stronger awareness of short-term escalation to asthma medication after respiratory infection and significantly enhanced management of maintenance medication (P<0.05). Compared with the complete control group, the non-complete control group had a significantly higher proportion of children with abnormal pulmonary function at the initial stage (P<0.05). The level of asthma control in children was associated with short-term escalation to asthma medication during respiratory infection and initial lung function (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The level of asthma control in children is closely associated with the severity of asthma and the comprehensive management of childhood asthma. Early treatment and family management, especially escalation to asthma medication during the early stage of respiratory infection, are of great importance in asthma control.

Background: The prevalence of pediatric asthma in China is approximately 3%, and asthma remains poorly controlled in many of these patients. This study assessed the rate of adherence to home nebulizer treatment in paediatric patients in China. Methods: The CARE study was a 12-week, multicentre, prospective, observational study across 12 tertiary hospitals in China. Patients were aged 0–14 years, clinically diagnosed with asthma and prescribed home nebulizer inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) therapy for ⩾3 months. The primary endpoint was electronically monitored treatment adherence. Patients attended onsite visits at 0, 4, 8 and 12 weeks to assess asthma control, severity and treatment adherence (recorded by electronic monitoring devices and caregivers). Results: The full analysis set included 510 patients. Median treatment adherence reported by electronic monitoring devices was 69.9%, and median caregiver-reported adherence was 77.9%. The proportion of patients with well-controlled asthma increased from 12.0% at baseline to 77.5% at visit 4. Increased time between asthma diagnosis and study enrolment was a significant predictor for better adherence [coefficient: 0.01, p = 0.0138; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.00, 0.01] and asthma control (odds ratio = 1.001, p = 0.0498; 95% CI: 1.000, 1.002). Negative attitude to treatment by the caregiver was associated with poorer asthma control. Conclusions: Adherence to home nebulization, a widely used treatment for asthma, was high among Chinese pediatric patients. Asthma control improved with increasing treatment duration. These results suggest that home nebulization of ICS is an effective and recommendable long-term treatment for paediatric patients with asthma.

OBJECTIVE:To study the significance of the level of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score, and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score in evaluating the conditions and prognosis of children with severe pneumonia. METHODS:A total of 76 children with severe pneumonia who were admitted from August 2017 to October 2019 were enrolled as the severe pneumonia group. According to the treatment outcome, they were divided into a non-response group with 34 children and a response group with 42 children. Ninety-four children with common pneumonia who were admitted during the same period of time were enrolled as the common pneumonia group. One hundred healthy children who underwent physical examination in the outpatient service during the same period of time were enrolled as the control group. The serum level of sTREM-1, APACHE II score, and SOFA score were measured for each group, and the level of sTREM-1 in BALF was measured for children with severe pneumonia. The correlation of the above indices with the severity and prognosis of severe pneumonia in children was analyzed. RESULTS:The severe pneumonia group had significantly higher serum sTREM-1 level, APACHEII score, and SOFA score than the common pneumonia group and the control group (P<0.05). For the children with severe pneumonia, the non-response group had significant increases in the levels of sTREM-1 in serum and BALF and SOFA score on day 7 after admission, while the response group had significant reductions in these indices, and there were significant differences between the two groups (P<0.05). Positive correlation was found between any two of serum sTREM-1, BALF sTREM-1, and SOFA score (P<0.05). APACHE II score was not correlated with serum sTREM-1, BALF sTREM-1, and SOFA score (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The level of sTREM-1 in serum and BALF and SOFA score can be used to evaluate the severity and prognosis of severe pneumonia in children.
Objectives. To identify risk factors associated with the prognosis of pertussis-like coughing. Methods. A retrospective study on children hospitalized with pertussis-like coughing from 2018 to 2019. We collected all the case data from medical records including age, gender, vaccination, clinical symptoms, complication, pathogens, white blood cell (WBC) count, lymphocyte ratio, application of macrolide antibiotics, usage of sulfamethoxazole, and usage of inhaled glucocorticoids. Logistic regression was used in this study. Results. A total of 213 hospitalized children with pertussis-like coughing were included in this study. About 70 children were cured within 2 weeks. One120 children were cured from 2 weeks to 3 months, including cases of initial attack and relapse. Symptoms lasting longer than 3 months accounts for 10.8%. Bordetella pertussis, WBC count >20 × 109/L and lymphocyte ratio >60% were associated with poor prognosis (P < .05). Conclusions. Bordetella pertussis, WBC count, and lymphocyte ratio are independent risk factors for poor prognosis.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pharyngeal spraying recombinant human interfe-ron alpha 2b (rhIFNα2b) in the treatment of herpangina in children.Method:s A prospective, multicenter, rando-mized, opened and controlled study was carried out in 11 hospitals in Anhui province from August 2018 to March 2019.According to the time of admission, 180 patients diagnosed as herpangina were prospectively and randomly divided into rhIFNα2b treatment group and Ribavirin control group.On the basis of giving both groups the heat-clearing, detoxifying and anti-infection treatment, the patients in treatment group received pharyngeal spraying rhIFNα2b 9 g/L saline solution[1 million IU/mL, 0.1 million IU/(0.1 mL·press)], and the patients in control group were treated by pharyngeal spraying Ribavirin (0.5 mg RBV/press, 150 press), 3 presses per time, 4 times per day, continuous administration for 5 days for both groups.Those who recovered in advance were no longer given medication.All patients were observed to fully recover.The clinical efficacy and the disappearing time of symptoms and signs between two groups were compared, and the safety of pharyngeal spraying rhIFNα2b for patients was evaluated.Result:s All of the 180 patients completed the study, including 90 cases in the treatment group and 90 cases in the control group.There was no statistically significant difference in terms of gender, age, weight and course of illness before treatment between the two groups (all P>0.05), which had clinical comparability.The apparent efficiency of the treatment group [63.3% (57/90 cases)] was significantly higher than that in the control group [38.9% (35/90 cases)] and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=10.934, P=0.004); no significant difference in the total efficiency between the treatment group [96.7% (87/90 cases)]and the control group [92.2% (83/90 cases)]was observed ( χ2=2.924, P=0.169). The duration of fever[(32.59±20.73) h vs.(45.72±26.96) h], hyperemia[(76.48±23.12) h vs.(92.44±24.31) h], herpes[(72.99±25.77) h vs.(85.09± 26.62) h], salivation[(45.44±24.96) h vs.(54.42±31.20) h] and anorexia[(62.70±23.99) h vs.(78.71±30.54) h] in the treatment group were significantly shorter than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Before treatment, the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α) [(13.02±4.41) ng/L vs.(13.57±9.27) ng/L], interleukin-6(IL-6) [(26.48±11.31) ng/L vs.(30.15±15.55) ng/L] and C-reactive protein(CRP)[(19.34±14.11) mg/L vs.(19.83±14.57) mg/L]were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). After treatment, the serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were(7.26±1.99) ng/L and (2.42±0.73) ng/L in the treatment group, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(12.09±6.39) ng/L and (7.32±11.51) ng/L](all P<0.05), but no significant difference in serum levels of CRP between the two groups was observed ( P>0.05). The comparison on positive rate of virus in pharyngeal swab between the treatment group [65.3% (32/49 cases) and 40.6% (13/32 cases) respectively] and the control group[66.7%(36/54 cases) and 41.0% (16/39 cases), respectively]before and after therapy showed no significant difference (all P>0.05). During the treatment, no serious adverse reactions were observed in the two groups.The incidence of adverse reactions was 1.1% (1/90 cases) in the treatment group and 5.6% (5/90 cases) in the control group.In addition, the serum hemoglobin level of children in the control group after treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment and that in the treatment group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with pharyngeal spraying ribavirin, pharyngeal spraying rhIFNα2b can greatly improve the clinical efficiency, accelerate the disappearance of clinical symptoms and signs, and shorten the total course of disease, and is more safe and worthy of clinical application.
OBJECTIVE:To study the characteristics of pulmonary function in children with pertussis-like coughing caused by different pathogen infections. METHODS:The data on etiology and tidal breathing pulmonary function were collected from 95 hospitalized infants and young children with pertussis-like coughing. The tidal breathing pulmonary function was compared between these children and 67 healthy children. According to the type of pathogen, the children with pertussis-like coughing were classified to 6 groups: pertussis (n=17), viral infection (n=23), tuberculosis infection (n=6), Mycoplasma infection (n=9), other bacterial infection (n=8), and unknown pathogen (n=32). RESULTS:Among the 95 children with pertussis-like coughing, 15 (16%) had mild obstructive ventilatory dysfunction, 30 (32%) had moderate obstructive ventilatory dysfunction, and 22 (23%) had severe obstructive ventilatory dysfunction. Compared with the normal control group, the children with pertussis-like coughing had significant reductions in inspiratory-to-expiratory time ratio, ratio of time to peak tidal expiratory flow to total expiratory time (tPF%tE), and ratio of volume to peak tidal expiratory flow to total expiratory volume (vPF%vE) (P<0.05). The tuberculosis infection and Mycoplasma infection groups had a significantly lower tidal volume than the normal control group (P<0.05). All pathogen infection groups except the tuberculosis infection group had significantly lower tPF%tE and vPF%vE than the normal control group (P<0.05). The pertussis group had significantly lower tPF%tE and vPF%vE than the other infection groups (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Most of children with pertussis-like coughing have abnormal pulmonary functions. The children with Bordetella pertussis infection have the most severe pulmonary function impairment. Tidal breathing pulmonary function test may provide a reference for pathogen analysis of children with pertussis-like coughing.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the intervention measures to maintain clinical control in children with asthma in the remission stage when concomitant with acute upper respiratory infection (AURI). METHODS:A total of 100 asthmatic children who had achieved clinical control were randomly divided into observation group and control group. The two groups were both treated with a combination of inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting β2 receptor agonist (ICS/LABA) at the lowest dose every night. Conventional therapies were used for the two groups when suffering from AURI. In addition to conventional therapies, the observation group was given early short-term upgrade therapy, i.e., on the basis of maintenance therapy, the same amount of ICS/LABA complex preparation was inhaled every morning, which lasted for 7-10 days. Both groups were treated following asthma guidelines according to the severity of the disease at the time of acute attacks. The control rate of asthma, severity of acute attacks, changes in pulmonary function indices, and occurrence of adverse events were evaluated after 3, 6, 9, and 12 months of treatment. RESULTS:At each time point of follow-up, the rate of asthma control in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (90% vs 80%; P<0.05). The severity of acute attacks in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group at all follow-up time points (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the observation group had significantly improved pulmonary function indices of large and small airways (P<0.05) and significantly reduced mean amount of inhaled glucocorticoids and impact on family life (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Early short-term upgrade therapy for children with asthma in the remission stage when concomitant with AURI can prevent acute attacks of asthma, raise the rate of asthma control and improve pulmonary function.
目的 了解先天性中性粒细胞减少症(CN)相关新突变基因及突变位点并阐述诊疗过程及病儿转归.方法 收集1例CN病儿疾病的发展、治疗、转归及血液系统异常相关单基因遗传病总筛查结果加并以分析总结.结果 病儿3月龄时因反复不明原因中性粒细胞减少行基因遗传病筛查,确诊先天性中性粒细胞减少症,后病儿因反复感染住院接受抗感染及升白等治疗,治疗过程中病儿临床症状可部分缓解,但白细胞及中性粒细胞较前无明显上升.现病儿密切随访中,病情暂且稳定,建议转入血液科进一步行造血干细胞移植治疗.结论 血液系统异常相关单基因遗传病总筛查提示病儿系ELANE基因突变,核酸突变c.197T>G(外显子2),氨基酸突变DM66R,查阅文献显示该突变位点目前暂无报道.
