Application of modern information technology to prediction and early response can be helpful for efficient HFMD prevention and control. A seasonal auto-regressive integrated moving average(ARIMA) model for time series analysis was designed in this study. Eighty-four-month(from January 2009 to December 2015) retrospective data obtained from the Chinese Information System for Disease Prevention and Control were subjected to ARIMA modeling. The coefficient of determination(R^2), normalized Bayesian Information Criterion(BIC) and Q-test P value were used to evaluate the goodness-of-fit of constructed models. Subsequently, the best-fitted ARIMA model was applied to predict the expected incidence of HFMD from January 2016 to December 2016. The best-fitted seasonal ARIMA model was identified as(1,0,1)(0,1,1)12, with the largest coefficient of determination(R^2=0.743) and lowest normalized BIC(BIC=3.645) value. The residuals of the model also showed non-significant autocorrelations(P_(Box-Ljung(Q))=0.299). The predictions by the optimum ARIMA model adequately captured the pattern in the data and exhibited two peaks of activity over the forecast interval, including a major peak during April to June, and again a light peak for September to November. The ARIMA model proposed in this study can forecast HFMD incidence trend effectively, which could provide useful support for future HFMD prevention and control in the study area. Besides, further observations should be added continually into the modeling data set, and parameters of the models should be adjusted accordingly.展开更多

In the present prospective study we investigated the clinical characteristics and emergency management of children with severe encephalitis associated with NPE caused by enterovirus 71.METHODS: The study was conducted in 2 pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) over a 2-month period. Clinical records were reviewed of critically ill children with severe encephalitis associated with NPE caused by EV71 who were admitted to PICUs during the period of May to June 2008 in Fuyang.RESULTS: We reviewed the complete records of 36 children, of whom 23 (63.9%) were male and 13 (36.1%) female. Their age ranged from 4 to 48 months, with an average of 15.8 months. All children except one were under 3 years of age. The overall mortality in these children was 19.4%. The average duration of critical life threatening signs and symptoms was 2.1 days (12 hours-5 days). Nervous system diseases included brainstem encephalitis in 27 children (75%), brainstem encephalitis associated with myelitis in 6 children (16.7%), and general encephalitis in 3 chidren (8.3%), respectively. In 12 patients of NPE (33.3%) pink or bloody bubble sputum and asymmetric pulmonary edema or hemorrhage was the primary manifestation but no typical exanthema was observed. Five children died of acute onset of NPE and / or pulmonary hemorrhage with rapid progression of cardiopulmonary failure within hours after admission. Therapeutic management consisted of mechanical ventilation and administration of mannitol, methylprednisolone, intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and vasoactive drugs, associated with the need of fluid volume resuscitation in 9 (25%) of the 36 children.CONCLUSION: In children less than 3 years of age found to be affected by severe EV71 encephalitis associated with NPE, one fifth may die. The major organ systems infected by severe EV71 include the central nervous system, the respiratory system, and the car展开更多

Methods Seventy-five cases were randomized into 3 groups. Of which, in the combined therapy group of moxibustion and medicine (22 cases), the pricking moxibustion and routine western medicine treatment were provided in combination; in the Chinese herbal medicine group (29 cases), oral administration of Chinese herbal medicine and routine western medicine treatment were provided; in the western medicine group (24 cases), routine western medicine treatment was provided. After 7 days treatment, the therapeutic effects of 3 groups were judged by comparisons of skin rush, oral mucosa herpes, constipation (or loose stools), indigestion and anorexia, and sore throat. Results The total effective rate was 95.5% in combined therapy group of moxibustion and medicine, 86.2% in Chinese herbal medicine group, 83.3% in western medicine group. The total effective rate in combined therapy group was superior to that in either Chinese herbal medicine group or western medicine group (both P〈0.05). Comparing the fading durations of skin rush, oral mucosa herpes, constipation (or loose stools), indigestion and anorexia between combined therapy group and other two groups, significant differences were presented statistically (both P〈0. 05). Conclusion In the combined therapy group of moxibustion and medicine, the symptoms of alimentary canal were relieved, the disease courses were shortened and the pains were reduced in hand-foot-mouth disease patients.展开更多

Serum was collected to determine the contents of NSE, S100β and inflammatory response mediators, and peripheral blood was collected to determine the contents of T cell subsets and NK cells.Results: Serum NSE and S100β levels of severe group and mild group were significantly higher than those of control group, and serum NSE and S100β levels of severe group were significantly higher than those of mild group;serum TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17 and PCT levels as well as peripheral blood HLA-DR+CD4+, HLA-DR+CD8+, CD38+CD4+ and CD38+CD8+ levels of severe group and mild group were significantly higher than those of control group while peripheral blood CD3+T cell, CD4+T cell, CD8+T cell and NK cell levels were significantly lower than those of control group;serum TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10, IL-17 and PCT levels as well as peripheral blood HLA-DR+CD4+, HLA-DR+CD8+, CD38+CD4+ and CD38+CD8+ levels of severe group were significantly higher than those of mild group and positively correlated with NSE and S100β levels while peripheral blood CD3+T cell, CD4+T cell, CD8+T cell and NK cell levels were significantly lower than those of mild group and negatively correlated with NSE and S100β levels.Conclusion: The increase of serum NSE and S100β levels in children with HFMD complicated by encephalitis is closely related to inflammatory response activation and immune response disorder.展开更多

Methods: A total of 116 children with hand-foot-mouth disease who were treated in this hospital between September 2016 and February 2018 were selected as the study subjects and divided into the control group (n=58) and the Potassium Sodium Dehydroandrograpolide Succinate group (n=58) by random number table method. Control group received symptomatic + interferon therapy, and Potassium Sodium Dehydroandrograpolide Succinate group received symptomatic + interferon + Potassium Sodium Dehydroandrograpolide Succinate therapy, and they were treated for 1 week. The differences in the serum contents of inflammatory factors, adhesion molecules and humoral immunity indexes were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results:Before treatment, serum levels of inflammatory factors, adhesion molecules and humoral immunity indexes were not significantly different between the two groups. After 1 week of treatment, serum inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-10, PCT and hs-CRP levels of Potassium Sodium Dehydroandrograpolide Succinate group were lower than those of control group;serum adhesion molecules CD44, ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 levels were lower than those of control group;serum humoral immunity indexes IgA, IgG, C3 and C4 levels were lower than those of control group. Conclusion: Interferon + Potassium Sodium Dehydroandrograpolide Succinate therapy can effectively reduce the systemic inflammatory response and improve the humoral immune function in children with hand-foot-mouth disease.展开更多
