Objective Influenza-associated necrotizing encephalopathy (IANE) in children is a serious complication of influenza. At present, there is a lack of indicators for early diagnosis and early warning. In this paper, the role of blood biochemical and cerebrospinal fluid detection in early warning of IANE in children is discussed, so as to provide a predictive reference for early diagnosis of IANE. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on children diagnosed with influenza and with neurological complications who were treated in our hospital from January 2016 to December 2020. Forty children with influenza-associated encephalopathy (IAE) and 32 children with IANE were included. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was used to determine the predictive value of the selected variables. Results Compared with IAE group, the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), creatinine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), cerebrospinal fluid lactate dehydrogenase (CSF LDH) and cerebrospinal fluid protein (CSF PRO) were all increased in IANE group, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). The area under curve (AUC) of LDH, CSF LDH and CSF PRO used to distinguish IAE from IANE were 0.876, 0.853 and 0.831, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of LDH>535 U/L for predicting IANE were 89.7% and 86.5% respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of CSF LDH>67 U/L for predicting IANE were 82.8% and 73.3% respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of CSF PRO＞0.49 g/L in predicting IANE were 73.7% and 76.6%. There were 10 deaths of IANE (43.3%) and 0 death of IAE (P<0.05). Conclusion The levels of LDH, CSF LDH and CSF PRO were significantly increased in IANE group, which could be used as early warning indicators for IANE. For such children, close evaluation, early prediction and intervention should be made to reduce sequelae and fatality rate and to improve prognosis.

目的 对3例儿童Rotor综合征的临床特点及SLCO1B1和SLCO1B3基因突变分析,提高儿科医生对Rotor综合征的认识。方法 收集广州市妇女儿童医疗中心2018年—2019年确诊的3例Rotor综合征患儿的临床资料,对患儿及其家系成员肝脏常见遗传代谢性疾病二代测序筛查并家系验证结果进行分析。结果 患儿主要临床表现为反复或持续巩膜和(或)皮肤轻度黄染,实验室检查提示高直接胆红素血症。二代测序发现3例患儿均为SLCO1B1基因c.1738C＞T纯合突变和SLCO1B3基因5号内含子区域大片段插入纯合突变。SLCO1B1基因和SLCO1B3基因2处纯合突变均进行了家系验证。文献报道的SLCO1B1基因c.1738C＞T突变是无义突变,可以造成蛋白功能缺失;SLCO1B3基因的大片段插入突变虽暂未有文献收录或报道,但大片段的插入突变可引起移码突变而造成编码蛋白功能丧失。结论 由于基因检测技术的不断进步,Rotor综合征不断被儿科医生所认识。SLCO1B1和SLCO1B3双基因纯合或复合杂合突变是3例Rotor综合征患儿的分子遗传基础。

Objective To better understand Rotor syndrome(RS)in children,the clinical features and SLCO1B1 and SLC01B3 gene mutations were analyzed. Methods The clinical data of the 3 pediatric cases diagnosed in Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center between 2018 and 2019 was collected. Genomic DNA was extracted from the children and their family members, and subjected for second-generation sequencing to screen the known genes for liver genetic metabolic diseases. Then the detected mutations were confirmed by Sanger sequencing analysis. Results The main clinical manifestations were recurrent or persistent mild yellowish sclera and/or skin. Laboratory examinations showed hyperbilirubinemia with direct bilirubin elevating. Second generation sequencing showed that all 3 children were c.1738c＞Thomozygous mutations of SLCO1B1 gene and homozygous mutations of large fragment insertion in SLCO1B3 gene intron 5. Two homozygous mutations in SLCO1B1 gene and SLCO1B3 gene were verified in families.SLCO1B1 gene c.1738C＞T mutation,a nonsense mutation reported in references,could lead to protein function loss.A large insertion mutation of SLCO1B3 gene could cause frame-shift mutation which might lead to protein function loss even though it was neither reported in the references nor recorded in SNP database. Conclusion Due to the progress in the clinical application of gene detection technology, RS has been recognized gradually by pediatricians. Homozygous mutations or compound heterozygous mutations simultaneously occurred in SLCO1B1 and SLCO1B3 gene were the molecular genetics base in these cases of RS.

Objective To investigate the immunophenotype features of children with acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL) combined with fusion gene expressing after to analyze the results of the 43 fusion genes. Methods Real-time fluorescent probe PCR assay was used for the detection of fusion genes in 120 cases of children from Shenzhen Children's Hospital with B-ALL newly or recurrently diagnosed from Oct 2016 to Dec 2018. Multi-parameter flow cytometry(FCM) was used for the detection of the immunophenotype in children with B-ALL. Results Of all the 120 cases, the fusion genes were detected at positive rate of 37.5%(45/120), included TEL/AML1 27 cases, E2 A/PBX1 7 cases, BCR/ABL1 6 cases, MLL 4 cases, TLS/ERG 1 cases. The positive rate of leukemia fusion gene had statistically difference among fusion genes positive groups based on age(P<0.01). There was no statistically difference in the gender distribution(P>0.05). The expressing of CD19 was at positive rate of 100% in all of the groups. The rate of the common-B-ALL was the highest B-ALL subtype in the TEL/AML1 positive groups(77.8%). The stem /progenitor associated antigen CD34 was at positive rate of 81.5%. The pre-B-ALL was the main subtype in the E2 A/PBX1 group, which was no expression of the known T-ALL associated antigen MyAg antigen. There was statistically difference in the positive rate of MyAg expression among all of the groups(P<0.01), with the highest rate in the BCR/ABL1 group(100%). Conclusion There were certain distribution features in age composition and immunophenotype of children with B-ALL carrying five kinds of common fusion genes. The characteristic changes of the immunophenotype of B-ALL may be used to predict the expression of fusion genes and improve the accuracy of fusion genes by the supplementary role of immunophenotype analysis.

Objective To explore the effect of acupuncture quantity on muscle tension and gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy. Methods From January 2017 to November 2019, 78 children with cerebral palsy who were treated in our hospital were collected. 78 children with cerebral palsy were randomly divided into two groups. The conventional acupuncture group (39 cases) were treated with general treatment and conventional acupuncture points. And the more-needle acupuncture group (39 cases) were treated with adding another 13 more acupuncture points. Muscle tension and gross motor function were compared between the two groups after three courses of treatment. Results After three courses of treatment, the muscle tension score of the conventional acupuncture group was slightly lower than that of the more-needle acupuncture group, and the gross motor function scale (GMFM-88) score was slightly lower than that of the more-needle acupuncture group, but the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture therapy can effectively assist the treatment of children with cerebral palsy, but increasing acupoints may not improve the muscle tension and gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy.
