They were randomly divided into control group, intervention group and asthma group, with 7 mice in each group. A mouse model of asthma was established by sensitization and stimulation of dust mites extract. The changes of airway inflammatory cells were observed by hematoxylin eosin staining; BALF was given cytological analysis; ELISA was used to detect IFN-γ levels in BALF; immunohistochemistry and Western Blot were used to detect IDO protein expression in lung tissue.Results:Asthma group: inflammatory cell infiltration, airway smooth muscle cell proliferation and lumen stenosis were obvious; intervention group: there were a small number of inflammatory cells infiltrating, there was airway smooth muscle cell proliferation, and lumen slightly narrowed; control group: there were no significant changes. The total number of cells, eosinophils and neutrophils in the BALF of asthma group were higher than those in the intervention group and the control group (P<0.05). The serum and BALF IFN-γ levels in asthma group were lower than those in intervention group and control group (P<0.05). The IDO gray value of lung tissue in asthma group was lower than that in control group and intervention group (P<0.05). IFN-γ level in serum was positively correlated with that in BALF(P<0.01), and expression of IDO protein in lung tissue was positively correlated with IFN-γ level in serum and BALF (P<0.01).Conclusion:There is a decrease in IDO protein expression in lung tissue of mice, which leads to deficiency and/or decrease of immune tolerance in vivo and promotes the development of bronchial asthma.

Research progress in the relationship between simple obesity and thyroid function in children WANG Shijia, LIU Qingyang 2021, 13 (2):  108.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1674-3865.2021.02.005 Abstract ( 1115 )   PDF (511KB) ( 754 )   Save To explore the changes of thyroid hormones in children with simple obesity，and to provide theoretical basis for the treatment of simple obesity and improving the quality of life of obese children. Child obesity is closely related to changes in thyroid function. Obese children have higher levels of thyroid-stimulatinghormone(TSH) than ordinary children. The currently accepted hypothesis shows that its mechanism is related to leptin. A mild increase in TSH is more like an adaptive change in body weight， rather than a cause of obesity. Selective thyroid hormone receptor agonist may become a potential drug for the treatment of obesity in the future. It remains to be verified by more clinical studies whether it can be used in the treatment of childhood obesity. Related Articles | Metrics

Professor Liu Xia, one in the sixth group of academic experience instructors of national experts in traditional Chinese medicine, has rich clinical experience in the treatment of Tourette syndrome in children. Based on her many years of clinical experience, she proposed the views that the pathogenesis of Tourette syndrome in children is "rooting in the liver, onset in the lung", establishing her theories from "wind evil and phlegm evil", and adopted the method of regulating lung and calming liver as well as dispelling wind and removing phlegm to treat Tourette syndrome in children. She used Lily magnolia,Periostracum cicadae,Rhizoma phragmitis,Folium isatidis,Rabdosia rubescens,papaya,Pinellia ternate,Common clubmoss herb,Ramulus uncariae cum unicis and scorpion as the basic drugs and according to different characteristics of the symptoms she adjusted the medicines during the treatment of children with Tourette syndrome, and the effect was satisfactory. She believed that the disease's onset was slow and its recovery was not quick. As for the principle of therapeutic methods, the most important thing was to stick to the law and prescription, and to follow the prescription if the effect was good, maintaining the treatment. In addition, life conditioning during the treatment was very important, we should pay attention to daily life, diet and psychological care,and focus on the prevention of respiratory tract infection in order to dispel the causes of the disease.

The observation group was treated with modified Xiaoqinglong decoction combined with fluticasone propionate inhaled aerosol, while the control group was treated with fluticasone propionate inhaled aerosol alone, and the treatment period was 1 month. The scores of TCM symptoms, clinical efficacy and recurrence rate of each group were observed.Results：The total effective rate of the observation group and the control group was 95.0%(38/40) and 75.0%(30/40), respectively, with significant difference between the two groups(P<0.05). After treatment, the scores in wheezing, cough and expectoration of the control group were significantly higher than those of the observation group(P<0.05). After stopping the treatment, the recurrence rate in observation group was 10.0%(4/40), lower than that of control group(27.5%,11/40)(P<0.05).Conclusion：Modified Xiaoqinglong decoction combined with fluticasone propionate inhaled aerosol has significant effect in the treatment of cough variant asthma of external cold and internal fluid type, which can significantly improve the clinical symptoms and reduce the recurrence rate.

Analysis of distribution characteristics of rare diseases in Henan Children's Hospital from 2015 to 2019 ZHANG Yaodong, LUO Shuying, CHEN Yongxing, TAN Lina, WEI Haiyan 2021, 13 (2):  180.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1674-3865.2021.02.024 Abstract ( 1254 )   PDF (649KB) ( 431 )   Save Objective：To analyze the distribution characteristics of inpatients with rare diseases in Henan Children's Hospital, and provide scientific basis for the epidemiological study of rare diseases in children.Methods：The medical records of 1 104 rare disease patients admitted to Henan Children's Hospital from 2015 to 2019 were selected for descriptive epidemiological research and analysis.Results：The average age of patients with rare diseases was 30.87 months, and the average age was in the age range of 28.97 to 32.77 months, and the age distribution showed an increasing trend from 2015 to 2019. The types of common rare diseases in children were different in each period. The main types of rare diseases in infants, early childhood, and preschool children were methylmalonic acidemia and congenital adrenal hyperplasia, while the main rare diseases in school age children were congenital adrenal hyperplasia，and hepatolenticular degeneration. The top three rare disease types were methylmalonic acidemia, congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and hyperammonemia, which accounted for 31.7%(350/1 104), 21.7%(240/1 104) and 7.4%(82/1 104), respectively in rare disease patients. Among different types of rare diseases, the ratio of men to women was quite different. The top five rare diseases with the highest ratio of men to women were in turn as follows: adrenal leukodystrophy, glutaric acidemia, phenylketonuria, Kalman syndrome, and biotin-dependent hydroxylase deficiency. The top five rare diseases with the lowest male to female ratio were in turn as follows: multiple fibrous dysplasia with precocious puberty syndrome, Wadenberg syndrome, congenital hyperinsulinemia, type II glycogen storage disease, and Niemann-Pick's disease.Conclusion：From 2015 to 2019, the age distribution of rare diseases in Henan Children's Hospital showed an increasing trend year by year, and themain types of rare diseases in children were also different in different age groups. The ratio of men to women with different types of rare diseases is quite different. Related Articles | Metrics
