BackgroundChildhood obesity is a global public health issue, and the status of clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) as instruction manuals for the management of childhood obesity remains unclear. This study aims to identify and apprise the methodological and reporting quality of CPGs focused on childhood obesity and provide an overview of key recommendations.MethodsDatabases and websites reporting guidelines were searched from January, 2018 to September, 2023. The methodological quality was graded using the AGREE II, and RIGHT was used to assess the reporting completeness.ResultsAmong the six included CPGs, two were rated as high quality and considered "Recommended" and three were reported no less than 80%. CPGs included 184 recommendations cover diagnosis, assessment and management of complications, interventions and prevention. The diagnostic criteria for children with obesity over 2 years of age are based on normative BMI percentiles, depending on sex and age. CPGs recommended the delivery of multi-component behavior-changed interventions included controlling diet and increasing physical activity. Pharmacological interventions and bariatric surgery are considered as complementary therapies.ConclusionCPGs for childhood obesity should emphasize the impact of psychological factors and consider the provision of interventions from multiple settings, and could consider the role of complementary alternative therapies.ImpactSix guidelines have been published in the past 5 years focusing children obesity.Recommendations covered diagnosis, multiple intervention and prevention.Guidelines should focus on the role of complementary alternative therapies.Guidelines should emphasize the impact of psychological factors.Guidelines should consider the provision of interventions from multiple settings.
The objective was this study to investigate the effect of spleen aminopeptide combined with xinxibao on erythrocyte immunity and Toll-like receptors (TLRs) signaling pathways in adjuvant treatment of children with recurrent respiratory tract infections (RRTI). A total of 138 children with RRTI admitted to our hospital from May 2017 to May 2019 were selected as the study subjects and randomly divided into 3 groups with 46 cases in each group. The 3 groups were given conventional treatment. On this basis, control group A was given spleen aminopeptide adjuvant treatment, the control group B was given xinxibao adjuvant treatment, while the observation group was given xinxibao combined with spleen aminopeptide adjuvant treatment. Statistical comparison was made on the clinical efficacy, clinical symptom improvement time and trace element calcium (Ca), zinc (Zn) content, peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets (CD4+, CD8+), erythrocyte immunity indicators [Cooperative Tumor Erythrocyte Rosette (ATER), Erythrocyte Immune Adherence Enhancing Factor (FEER), Erythrocyte Immune Adherence Inhibiting Factor (FEIR)], Toll -like Receptor 2 (TLR2), Toll-like Receptor 4 (TLR4) level related to the TLRs signaling pathway before treatment, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after treatment. The observation group had higher total effective rate of clinical treatment than the control groups A and B, faster disappearance of high fever, cough, and pulmonary rales than the control groups A and B, showing statistically significant difference (P<0.05); after 2, 4 weeks of treatment, the observation group had higher contents of trace elements Ca and Zn than the control groups A and B, lower TLR2 and TLR4 levels than the control groups A and B, showing statistically significant difference (P<0.05); after 2, 4 weeks of treatment, the observation group had higher ATER, FEER, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+ levels, lower FEIR and CD8+ than the control groups A and B, showing statistically significant difference (P<0.05). It is concluded that the combination of spleen aminopeptide and xinxibao in adjuvant treatment of RRTI can alleviate children's symptoms, enhance peripheral T lymphocyte subsets, erythrocyte immunity, supplement trace element content, regulate TLRs signaling pathway, and further improve the therapeutic effect.

儿童哮喘患病率逐年上升,除遗传因素外,室外环境因素也扮演着重要角色.儿童人群肺部尚未完全发育,日益复杂多变的室外空气污染物可通过各种特定机制增加患儿哮喘症状、门急诊次数,引发免疫学紊乱,降低治疗的敏感度.因此,本文对室外空气污染对儿童哮喘的影响及其机制的研究进展进行综述,并对儿童哮喘管理措施进行了总结.
Antibiotic exposure in early life significantly increases the risk of childhood asthma, which is closely related to the dysbiosis and decreased diversity of intestinal and airway microbial flora caused by antibiotics. During birth and early life, the normal microbiota in the body plays an important role in the regulation of immune homeostasis and tolerance in children. Early antibiotic exposure can severely damage the gut and lung microbiota, resulting in dysbiosis and reduced microbial diversity, causing respiratory hyperresponsiveness, leading to high incidence of asthma in children. In recent years, the irrational use of antibiotics has become prominent. This article reviews the effect of early life antibiotics on the development of asthma in children, hoping that pediatricians will apply antibiotics more carefully and rationally to avoid the risk of developing asthma in children due to early exposure.
Background Paediatric pleural tuberculosis (TB) is a paucibacillary disease, which increases the difficulty of examination. We aimed to assess the performance of pleural fluid adenosine deaminase (ADA) in the detection of paediatric pleural TB.Methods PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection, Embase and Cochrane Library databases were searched up to 20 December 2021. We used the bivariate and hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic models to compute pooled estimates for the overall diagnostic accuracy parameters of ADA for diagnosing paediatric pleural TB.Results Eight studies, including 290 pleural fluid samples, met the inclusion criteria. The pooled sensitivity of ADA was 0.85 (95% CI: 0.78–0.90, I2: 55.63% < 75%) for detecting patients with paediatric pleural TB. A total of 262 pleural fluid samples from four studies were included to differentiate patients with paediatric pleural TB from controls. At a unified cut-off value of 40 U/L, the pooled sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio, diagnostic odds ratio and area under the summary receiver operating characteristic curve of ADA were 0.89, 0.58, 2.09, 0.20, 10.48 and 0.89, respectively.Conclusions At a cut-off value of 40 U/L, the overall performance of ADA was good for detecting paediatric pleural TB, with relatively high sensitivity and low specificity. Key messageAccurate identification of paediatric pleural TB will help eliminate TB in children. At a cut-off value of 40 U/L, the overall performance of ADA was good for detecting paediatric pleural TB, with relatively high sensitivity and low specificity.

Human asthma is caused by interactions between a range of genetic and environmental factors. However, the specific pathogenesis of asthma remains controversial. This study explored the contribution of DNA methylation to asthma using computer learning methods. Relevant datasets and information related to patients with asthma were collected from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. A multivariate linear regression model was established. Differentially expressed genes and DNA methylation sites were identified. The results showed that the expression of 169 genes was significantly different between the two groups. Through differential analysis of methylation and differential analysis of gene expression, 44 differentially expressed genes that may be affected by DNA methylation modification were identified. The results of the multiple linear regression model showed that DNA methylation could explain 9.81% of the variation in gene expression. Gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analyses showed that the differentially expressed genes, HLA-DMB, IL4, HLA-DPB1, and CD40LG, were related to the occurrence of asthma, and HLA-DMB expression was significantly reduced in allergic asthma. There was a positive correlation between cg04933135 and HLA-DMB expression, and cg04933135 was a differential site for DNA methylation. Using blood samples from asthma patients, we confirmed that HLA-DMB expression is down-regulated, which may be affected by abnormal DNA methylation. DNA methylation plays an important role in the development of asthma, and HLA-DMB which modified by abnormal DNA methylation can be regarded as a new biomarker of asthma.

Background : Asthma can increase the risk of anxiety and abnormal behavior among children but the correlation between anxiety and behavioral abnormalities in children with asthma was unclear. Methods: The Self-Rating Anxiety Scale and the Rutter Children’s Behavior Questionnaire were used to conduct surveys with 337 children aged 6 to 14 years who were diagnosed in the asthma clinic of Gansu Provincial Maternity and Child Care Hospital in Lanzhou, China from January to December 2019. SPSS 22.0 software was used to perform multivariate logistic regression and factor analysis on the items of the anxiety scale to extract different anxiety manifestations. Results : The abnormal behavior rate was 37.1% among the 337 investigated children with asthma. A total of 3 factors were extracted by factor analysis on the 20 items of the anxiety scale, namely mental, sensory, and hand-and-foot manifestations. The 3 factors were divided into 3 groups using tertiles (Q1~Q3). After controlling for sex, age, wheezing history, marital status of parents, caregiver awareness, and caregiver’s home care situation, compared with Q1, the multivariate logistic regression model showed that Q3 had a statistically significant relationship with abnormal behavior, regardless of mental or hand-and-foot manifestation. No connection between Q2 and behavior abnormalities was found. For sensory manifestations, neither Q3 nor Q2 was significantly related to abnormal behavior. Conclusions : Abnormal behavior was related to only severe anxiety among children with asthma. Therefore, psychological intervention should be carried out as early as possible in the treatment of children with asthma to prevent and correct abnormal behavior.
