The mitochondrion is a multifunctional organelle that modulates multiple systems critical for homeostasis during pathophysiological stress. Variation in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number (mtDNAcn), a key mitochondrial change associated with chronic stress, is an emerging biomarker for disease pathology and progression. mtDNAcn can be quantified from whole blood samples using qPCR to determine the ratio of nuclear DNA to mtDNA. However, the collection of blood samples in pediatric populations, particularly in infants and young children, can be technically challenging, yield much smaller volume samples, and can be distressing for the patients and their caregivers. Therefore, we have validated a mtDNAcn assay utilizing DNA from simple buccal swabs (Isohelix SK-2S) and report here its performance in specimens from infants (age = <12 months). Utilizing qPCR to amplify ~200bp regions from two mitochondrial (ND1, ND6) and two nuclear (BECN1, NEB) genes, we demonstrated absolute (100%) concordance with results from low-pass whole genome sequencing (lpWGS). We believe that this method overcomes key obstacles to measuring mtDNAcn in pediatric populations and creates the possibility for development of clinical assays to measure mitochondrial change during pathophysiological stress.
线粒体是一种多功能细胞器,在病理生理应激过程中调节多个对平衡至关重要的系统。线粒体 DNA(mtDNA)拷贝数(mtDNAcn)的变化是与慢性应激相关的一种关键线粒体变化,是疾病病理和进展的一种新兴生物标记。然而,在儿科人群(尤其是婴幼儿)中采集血液样本在技术上具有挑战性,采集的样本量更少,而且会给患者及其护理人员带来困扰。因此,我们利用简单口腔拭子(Isohelix SK-2S)中的 DNA 验证了 mtDNAcn 检测方法,并在此报告其在婴儿(年龄 = 12 个月)标本中的表现。利用 qPCR 扩增两个线粒体基因(ND1、ND6)和两个核基因(BECN1、NEB)的 ~200bp 区域,我们证明了与低通量全基因组测序(lpWGS)结果的绝对一致性(100%)。我们相信,这种方法克服了在儿科人群中测量 mtDNAcn 的主要障碍,并为开发临床检测方法以测量病理生理应激过程中线粒体的变化提供了可能。

Background: Neonatal mortality is a significant challenge that affects babies within the first 28 days of life. The issue is particularly challenging for healthcare systems in developing countries, where interventions are required. Although there has been a decline in neonatal mortality worldwide, comprehensive data on the patterns of neonatal mortality and the contributing factors in rural regions of Ethiopia is lacking.Objective: To determine neonatal mortality trends and mortality in rural Ethiopia using 2011-2019 DHS dataMethods: Ethiopian demographic health survey (EDHS) program conducted a cross-sectional community-based study in rural Ethiopia in 2011, 2016, and 2019. The study included women who gave birth within the specified timeframe and agreed to participate. Sampling was done through a multistage cluster approach, and STATA version 17 was used to analyze the data. Predictor variables were validated through multiple logistic regression analysis. Weighted estimates were used to derive population-level statistics and a p-value less than 0.05 was considered significant.Results: The study analyzed data from 22,755 women who participated in EDHS surveys between 2011 and 2019. Neonatal mortality rates decreased from 7.5% to 6.03%. Regional variations were observed, with Gambela and Tigrai having the lowest rates, and Dire Dawa and the Somali region having higher rates. Factors like mother's age, wealth index, birth order, neonate's sex, and presence of twins, immediate breastfeeding, and baby's size were associated with neonatal mortality.Conclusion and recommendation: Despite significant advancements that have been made to decrease neonatal mortality, there remain challenges that need to be addressed. Therefore, regional health bureaus should strengthen their strategies to enhance antenatal care (ANC) visits and promote birth delivery at health facilities.
背景:新生儿死亡率是影响出生后 28 天内婴儿的一项重大挑战。对于发展中国家的医疗保健系统来说,这一问题尤其具有挑战性,需要采取干预措施。虽然全球新生儿死亡率有所下降,但埃塞俄比亚农村地区却缺乏有关新生儿死亡模式和诱因的全面数据:利用 2011-2019 年人口与健康调查数据确定埃塞俄比亚农村地区的新生儿死亡趋势和死亡率:埃塞俄比亚人口健康调查(EDHS)项目于 2011 年、2016 年和 2019 年在埃塞俄比亚农村地区开展了一项基于社区的横断面研究。研究对象包括在规定时间内分娩并同意参与的妇女。研究采用多阶段聚类法进行抽样,并使用 STATA 17 版进行数据分析。预测变量通过多重逻辑回归分析进行验证。使用加权估计值得出人群层面的统计数据,P 值小于 0.05 即为显著:研究分析了 2011 年至 2019 年期间参加 EDHS 调查的 22 755 名妇女的数据。新生儿死亡率从7.5%降至6.03%。各地区之间存在差异,甘贝拉和提格雷地区的新生儿死亡率最低,而迪雷达瓦和索马里地区的新生儿死亡率较高。母亲年龄、财富指数、出生顺序、新生儿性别、是否双胞胎、是否立即母乳喂养以及婴儿大小等因素与新生儿死亡率有关:尽管在降低新生儿死亡率方面取得了重大进展,但仍有一些挑战需要应对。因此,地区卫生局应加强战略,加强产前保健(ANC)访问,促进在卫生机构分娩。

AbstractBackground: Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is the single most important cause of morbidity and mortality in preterm neonates. Early management of RDS is crucial in determining short- and long-term outcomes and studies have established initial respiratory support (IRS) among other factors as an important determinant. Despite preexisting guidelines and advancements in the management of RDS, IRS failure with noninvasive ventilation is common and is associated with unfavorable outcomes.Objective: This study evaluated the non-invasive initial respiratory support outcomes and associated factors among preterm neonates with respiratory distress syndrome admitted in the newborn unit (NBU) at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital Eldoret (MTRH), KenyaMethods: Using a prospective observational hospital-based study, preterm neonates ≤ 35weeks admitted at the newborn unit with clinical RDS were followed up for 28 days. The primary outcome was IRS success or failure characterized by not stepping up or stepping up the respiratory support respectively within 72 hours of life and associated maternal and neonatal factors. Descriptive statistics was described using mean ± (SD) for continuous variables and frequencies and percentages for categorical variables. Simple and multinomial regression analysis was performed to evaluate relationship between different IRS methods with outcome variables and a p-value of < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: We enrolled 320 neonates, 172(53.8%) were male with a mean (SD) gestation age of 30.9 (2.95) weeks. The mothers mean age was 27 years, ranging (15-43). 70(22.4%) 95%CI:17.95,27.47] had IRS failure and 243(77.6%) had IRS success. On multivariate analysis IRS success was associated with primiparity (AOR=2.81;95%CI: 1.42, 7.99), birthweight > 1300g (AOR= 5.04;95%CI 1.81, 14.6), low modified Downes score (AOR=26.395%CI 3.37, 230) and normal admission temperatures (AOR=0.32;95%CI 0.12, 0.72) (p= <0.001).Conclusion: Noninvasive ventilation had a high initial respiratory support success. Primiparity, birthweight >1300g, normal admission temperatures and low Downes score were associated with IRS success.
摘要背景:呼吸窘迫综合征(RDS)是早产新生儿发病和死亡的最重要原因。对 RDS 的早期管理是决定短期和长期预后的关键,研究已确定初始呼吸支持(IRS)和其他因素是重要的决定因素。尽管在 RDS 的管理方面已有指南并取得了进步,但无创通气的 IRS 失败仍很常见,而且与不良预后有关:本研究评估了肯尼亚埃尔多雷特莫伊教学和转诊医院(MTRH)新生儿科(NBU)收治的患有呼吸窘迫综合征的早产新生儿的无创初始呼吸支持结果及相关因素:通过一项基于医院的前瞻性观察研究,对新生儿科收治的≤35周、患有临床RDS的早产新生儿进行为期28天的随访。主要结果是在出生后 72 小时内分别以未加强或加强呼吸支持为特征的 IRS 成功或失败,以及相关的产妇和新生儿因素。连续变量采用均数 ± (SD) 表示,分类变量采用频率和百分比表示。进行了简单和多项式回归分析,以评估不同 IRS 方法与结果变量之间的关系,P 值在 < 0.05 之间为显著。结果我们共登记了 320 名新生儿,其中 172 名(53.8%)为男性,平均(标清)孕龄为 30.9(2.95)周。母亲的平均年龄为 27 岁(15-43 岁)。70(22.4%)人 IRS 失败,243(77.6%)人 IRS 成功。多变量分析显示,IRS 成功与初产妇(AOR=2.81;95%CI: 1.42, 7.99)、出生体重 1300g (AOR=5.04;95%CI 1.81, 14.6)、低改良唐氏评分(AOR=26.395%CI 3.37, 230)和入院体温正常(AOR=0.32;95%CI 0.12, 0.72)有关(P= 0.001):无创通气的初始呼吸支持成功率较高。结论:无创通气的初始呼吸支持成功率很高。初产妇、出生体重 1300 克、入院体温正常和唐氏评分低与无创通气成功率有关。

BackgroundAdolescents with disrupted rest-activity rhythm (RAR) including shorter sleep duration, later sleep timing and low physical activity levels have higher risk for mental and behavioral problems. However, it remains unclear whether the same associations can be observed for within-subject changes in RAR.MethodsOur longitudinal investigation on RAR used Fitbit data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) Study at the 2-year (FL2: aged 10-13 years) and 4-year follow-up (FL4: aged 13-16 years). 963 youths had good-quality Fitbit data at both time points. In this study we examined changes in RAR from FL2 to FL4, their environmental and demographic contributors as well as brain and behavioral correlates.ResultsFrom FL2 to FL4, adolescents showed decreases in sleep duration and physical activity as well as delayed sleep timing (Cohens d .44-.75). The contributions of environmental and demographic factors to RAR changes were greatest to sleep timing (explained 10% variance) and least to sleep duration (explained 1% variance). Delays in sleep timing had stronger correlations with behavioral problems including greater impulsivity and poor academic performance than reductions in sleep duration or physical activity. Additionally, the various brain measures differed in their sensitivity to RAR changes. Reductions in sleep duration were associated with decreased functional connectivity between subcortical regions and sensorimotor and cingulo-opercular networks and with enhanced functional connectivity between sensorimotor, visual and auditory networks. Delays in sleep timing were mainly associated with grey matter changes in subcortical regions while reduced physical activity level was mostly associated with decreased integrity of white matter fiber tracts.ConclusionsThe current findings corroborate the role of sleep and physical activity in adolescents brain neurodevelopment and behavior problems. RAR might serve as biomarkers or treatment targets for monitoring or treating mental and behavioral problems in adolescents.
背景休息-活动节奏(RAR)紊乱的青少年,包括睡眠时间较短、睡眠时间较晚和体育活动水平较低的青少年,出现精神和行为问题的风险较高。方法我们对 RAR 的纵向调查使用了青少年大脑认知发展(ABCD)研究在 2 年(FL2:10-13 岁)和 4 年随访(FL4:13-16 岁)期间的 Fitbit 数据。963名青少年在两个时间点都拥有高质量的Fitbit数据。在这项研究中,我们研究了从 FL2 到 FL4 期间 RAR 的变化、其环境和人口因素以及大脑和行为相关性。结果从 FL2 到 FL4,青少年的睡眠时间和体力活动减少,睡眠时间延迟(Cohens d .44-.75)。环境和人口因素对 RAR 变化的影响最大的是睡眠时间(可解释 10%的差异),最小的是睡眠时间(可解释 1%的差异)。与睡眠时间缩短或体育锻炼减少相比,睡眠时间延迟与行为问题(包括更容易冲动和学习成绩差)的相关性更大。此外,各种大脑测量指标对 RAR 变化的敏感性也不同。睡眠时间的缩短与皮层下区域、感觉运动网络和丘脑网络之间的功能连接性降低有关,而与感觉运动、视觉和听觉网络之间的功能连接性增强有关。睡眠时间的延迟主要与皮层下区域灰质的变化有关,而体力活动水平的降低则主要与白质纤维束完整性的降低有关。RAR可作为监测或治疗青少年精神和行为问题的生物标志物或治疗目标。

Background: Hypertension in adolescence is associated with subclinical target organ injury (TOI). We aimed to determine whether different blood pressure (BP) thresholds were associated with increasing number of TOI markers in healthy adolescents. Methods: 244 participants (mean age 15.5±1.8 years, 60.1% male) were studied. Participants were divided based on both systolic clinic and ambulatory BP (ABP), into low- (<75th percentile), mid- (75th-90th percentile) and high-risk (>90th percentile) groups. TOI assessments included left ventricular mass, systolic and diastolic function, and vascular stiffness. The number of TOI markers for each participant was calculated. A multivariable general linear model was constructed to evaluate the association of different participant characteristics with higher numbers of TOI markers. Results: 47.5% of participants had at least one TOI marker: 31.2% had one, 11.9% two, 3.7% three, and 0.8% four. The number of TOI markers increased according to the BP risk groups: the percentage of participants with more than one TOI in the low-, mid-, and high groups based on clinic BP was 6.7%, 19.1%, and 21.8% (p=0.02), and based on ABP was 9.6%, 15.8%, and 32.2% (p<0.001). In a multivariable regression analysis, both clinic BP percentile and ambulatory SBP index were independently associated with the number of TOI markers. When both clinic and ABP were included in the model, only the ambulatory SBP index was significantly associated with the number of markers.Conclusion: High SBP, especially when assessed by ABPM, was associated with an increasing number of subclinical cardiovascular injury markers in adolescents.
背景:青春期高血压与亚临床靶器官损伤(TOI)有关。我们旨在确定在健康青少年中,不同的血压(BP)阈值是否与靶器官损伤标记物数量的增加有关。方法:我们对 244 名参与者(平均年龄为 15.5±1.8 岁,60.1% 为男性)进行了研究。根据收缩压和动态血压(ABP)将参与者分为低危(第75百分位数)、中危(第75-90百分位数)和高危(第90百分位数)组。TOI评估包括左心室质量、收缩和舒张功能以及血管僵硬度。计算了每位参与者的 TOI 指标数量。建立了一个多变量一般线性模型,以评估不同参与者特征与较高 TOI 标志物数量之间的关联。结果显示47.5%的参与者至少有一个TOI标记:31.2%有一个,11.9%有两个,3.7%有三个,0.8%有四个。TOI标记物的数量随血压风险组别而增加:根据门诊血压,低、中、高组别中拥有一个以上TOI的参与者比例分别为6.7%、19.1%和21.8%(P=0.02),而根据ABP,则分别为9.6%、15.8%和32.2%(P<0.001)。在多变量回归分析中,门诊血压百分位数和非卧床 SBP 指数均与 TOI 标记的数量独立相关。当将门诊血压和 ABP 均纳入模型时,只有非卧床 SBP 指数与标记物数量有显著相关性:结论:高 SBP(尤其是通过 ABPM 评估时)与青少年亚临床心血管损伤标记物数量的增加有关。

The number of TOI markers increased according to the BP risk groups: the percentage of participants with more than one TOI in the low-, mid-, and high groups based on clinic BP was 6.7%, 19.1%, and 21.8% (p=0.02), and based on ABP was 9.6%, 15.8%, and 32.2% (p&lt;0.001). In a multivariable regression analysis, both clinic BP percentile and ambulatory SBP index were independently associated with the number of TOI markers. When both clinic and ABP were included in the model, only the ambulatory SBP index was significantly associated with the number of markers.\u0000Conclusion: High SBP, especially when assessed by ABPM, was associated with an increasing number of subclinical cardiovascular injury markers in adolescents.","PeriodicalId":501549,"journal":{"name":"medRxiv - Pediatrics","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140165407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ImportanceThe United States Food and Drug Administration noted a potential safety concern for seizure in children aged 2-5 years receiving the ancestral monovalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccines.ObjectiveTo evaluate febrile seizure risk following monovalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccination among children aged 2-5 years. Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThe primary analysis evaluated children who had a febrile seizure outcome in the 0-1 days following COVID-19 vaccination. A self-controlled case series analysis was performed in three commercial insurance databases to compare the risk of seizure in the risk interval (0-1 days) to a control interval (8-63 days).ExposureReceipt of dose 1 and/or dose 2 of monovalent COVID-19 mRNA vaccinations.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome was febrile seizure (0-1 day risk interval). AnalysisA conditional Poisson regression model was used to compare outcome rates in risk and control intervals and estimate incidence rate ratios (IRR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Meta-analyses were used to pool results across databases.ResultsThe primary meta-analysis found a statistically significant increased incidence of febrile seizure, in the 0-1 days following mRNA-1273 vaccination compared to the control interval (IRR: 2.52, 95% CI: 1.35 to 4.69, risk difference (RD)/100,000 doses = 3.22 (95%CI -0.31 to 6.75)). For the BNT162b2 vaccination, the IRR was elevated but not statistically significant (IRR: 1.41, 95%CI: 0.48 to 4.11, RD/100,000 doses = -0.25 (95%CI -2.75 to 2.24). Conclusions and RelevanceAmong children aged 2-5 years, the analysis showed a small elevated incidence rate ratio of febrile seizures in the 0-1 days following the mRNA-1273 vaccination. Based on the current body of scientific evidence, the safety profile of the monovalent mRNA vaccines remains favorable for use in young children.
重要性美国食品和药物管理局指出,接种祖传单价 COVID-19 mRNA 疫苗的 2-5 岁儿童可能存在癫痫发作的安全隐患。目的评估 2-5 岁儿童接种单价 COVID-19 mRNA 疫苗后发热性癫痫发作的风险。主要分析评估接种 COVID-19 疫苗后 0-1 天内出现发热性癫痫发作的儿童。在三个商业保险数据库中进行了自我对照病例系列分析,以比较风险区间(0-1 天)与对照区间(8-63 天)的癫痫发作风险。主要结果和测量主要结果是发热性癫痫发作(0-1 天风险区间)。分析采用条件泊松回归模型比较风险区间和对照区间的结果发生率,并估算发病率比(IRR)和95%置信区间(CIs)。结果主要荟萃分析发现,与对照区间相比,接种 mRNA-1273 疫苗后 0-1 天内发热性癫痫发作的发生率有统计学意义的显著增加(IRR:2.52,95% CI:1.35 至 4.69,风险差异 (RD)/100,000 剂 = 3.22 (95%CI -0.31 至 6.75))。对于 BNT162b2 疫苗接种,IRR 升高但无统计学意义(IRR:1.41,95%CI:0.48 至 4.11,RD/100,000 剂 = -0.25 (95%CI -2.75 至 2.24))。结论和相关性分析表明,在接种 mRNA-1273 疫苗后的 0-1 天内,2-5 岁儿童发热性惊厥的发病率比略有升高。根据目前的科学证据,单价 mRNA 疫苗的安全性仍然适合幼儿使用。

Abstract: Background: Diabetic ketoacidosis is a morbid complication of diabetes mellitus, and its occurrence at diagnosis has rarely been studied in Ethiopia, despite the many cases seen in the pediatric population. Objective: To know the prevalence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) among patients with newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus and identify avoidable risk factors. Method: This institution-based retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted from December 25, 2018 to December 25, 2022. Newly diagnosed type1 diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with age < 15 years were included in the study. DKA was diagnosed based on clinical presentation and blood glucose and urine ketone levels. A data collection form was prepared to collect sociodemographic and clinical data. Descriptive, bivariate, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the risk factors. Result: Among the admitted 61 newly diagnosed T1DM pediatric patients, DKA was the first presentation in 37 patients making 60.7% of newly diagnosed T1DM. Mean age at diagnosis was 8 years and females were affected more. Clinical presentation revealed vomiting accompanied by signs of dehydration (32.4%), with polysymptoms (29.7%) being the most common. Infectious morbidity occurred in 26 patients, 21 of whom were in the DKA group. Inadequate knowledge of signs and symptoms of DM adjusted odds ratio (AOR=0.07(0.019-0.0897), absence of a family history of DM (AOR=0.129 (0.019-0.897), and presence of infection prior to diagnosis of DKA (AOR=11.69(1.34-10.1) were potential predictors for the development of DKA among newly diagnosed T1DM patients. Conclusion: A very high number of children present with DKA at the initial diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM), which is attributed to inadequate knowledge of the signs and symptoms of DM and the masking effect of concomitant infections in these children. Healthcare professionals should endeavor to suspect and screen children. Continuous awareness creation of DM at the health professional and community levels is encouraged to diagnose diabetes mellitus earlier and to decrease the prevalence of DKA as an initial presentation.

摘要:背景:糖尿病酮症酸中毒是糖尿病的一种致病并发症,尽管在埃塞俄比亚有很多儿科病例,但很少有人对其诊断时的发生率进行研究。目的:了解糖尿病酮症酸中毒的发病率:了解新诊断糖尿病患者中糖尿病酮症酸中毒(DKA)的发病率,并确定可避免的风险因素。方法:这项基于机构的回顾性横断面研究于 2018 年 12 月 25 日至 2022 年 12 月 25 日进行。研究纳入了年龄为 15 岁的新诊断 1 型糖尿病(DM)患者。根据临床表现、血糖和尿酮水平诊断 DKA。研究人员准备了一份数据收集表,用于收集社会人口学和临床数据。研究人员进行了描述性、双变量和多变量逻辑回归分析,以确定风险因素。结果在收治的 61 名新确诊的 T1DM 儿科患者中,37 名患者首次出现 DKA,占新确诊 T1DM 患者的 60.7%。确诊时的平均年龄为 8 岁,女性患者较多。临床表现为呕吐并伴有脱水症状(32.4%),最常见的是多种症状(29.7%)。有 26 名患者出现感染性发病,其中 21 人属于 DKA 组。对糖尿病症状和体征了解不足的调整赔率(AOR=0.07(0.019-0.0897))、无糖尿病家族史(AOR=0.129(0.019-0.897))和确诊 DKA 前存在感染(AOR=11.69(1.34-10.1))是新诊断 T1DM 患者发生 DKA 的潜在预测因素。结论很多儿童在初诊糖尿病(DM)时就出现了 DKA,这归因于这些儿童对 DM 的症状和体征了解不足,以及并发感染的掩盖作用。医护人员应努力对儿童进行怀疑和筛查。我们鼓励在医疗专业人员和社区层面不断提高对糖尿病的认识,以便更早地诊断出糖尿病,并降低以 DKA 为首发症状的发病率。关键字儿童、糖尿病酮症酸中毒、Dilla、发病率

Here, using single-cell RNA sequencing, we profile peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from three patients with onset asthma and four age-matched healthy controls to investigate the cellular etiology of childhood asthma. We find that very few differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) are common among three asthma cases, but the common ones are functionally related to S100A gene family. Furthermore, GO analyses show that the heterogeneous DEGs in HSPCs in three asthma cases can be clearly categorized into the biological processes of immunity and immune responses, which indicates that different DEGs converge on a common pathological base. The overall cellular expression profiles demonstrate that pro-inflammatory mediators and immunoglobulin receptors have a high expression level and interferon alpha induced protein has a low expression level in mononuclear macrophages of acute asthma. The cell developmental trajectories in three asthma cases exhibit an abnormal immune cell development pattern compared to the developmental trajectory in health control. T-cell development in acute asthma is especially dysregulated for three cases with three different T-cell branching pattern. We also find that the innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) in three asthma cases have a low expression level in housekeeping genes. Our scRNA-seq analyses for three asthma patients reveal a complex cellular etiology for childhood asthma and provide a new research direction for the comprehensive and systematic study of effector cells and key molecular mechanisms of childhood asthma.
在这里,我们利用单细胞 RNA 测序技术,对三名哮喘发病患者和四名年龄匹配的健康对照者的外周血单核细胞(PBMC)进行了分析,以研究儿童哮喘的细胞病因。我们发现,造血干细胞和祖细胞(HSPCs)中的差异表达基因(DEGs)在三个哮喘病例中非常少,但常见的差异表达基因与 S100A 基因家族功能相关。此外,GO分析表明,三个哮喘病例的造血干祖细胞中的异质性DEGs可明确归类为免疫和免疫反应的生物学过程,这表明不同的DEGs汇聚在一个共同的病理基础上。细胞整体表达谱显示,在急性哮喘的单核巨噬细胞中,促炎介质和免疫球蛋白受体的表达水平较高,而干扰素α诱导蛋白的表达水平较低。与健康对照组的发育轨迹相比,三个哮喘病例的细胞发育轨迹显示出异常的免疫细胞发育模式。在急性哮喘的三个病例中,T细胞的发育尤其失调,有三种不同的T细胞分支模式。我们还发现,三个哮喘病例中的先天淋巴细胞(ILCs)的看家基因表达水平较低。我们对三例哮喘患者的 scRNA-seq 分析揭示了儿童哮喘复杂的细胞病因,为全面系统地研究效应细胞和儿童哮喘的关键分子机制提供了新的研究方向。

Introduction: In remote communities, Australian First Nations children with hearing loss are disproportionately at risk of poor school readiness and performance, compared to those with normal hearing. Our objective was to compare two pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) formulations and mixed schedules (the PREVIX trials) designed to broaden protection and reduce conductive hearing loss to age 36 months. Methods: In two sequential parallel, open-label, randomised controlled trials, eligible infants were first allocated 1:1:1 at age 28-38 days to standard or mixed PCV primary schedules, then at age 12 months to a booster dose (1:1) of PCV13 (13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine, +P) or PHiD-CV10 (10-valent pneumococcal Haemophilus influenzae protein D conjugate vaccine, +S). Here we report secondary hearing outcomes in the +P and +S groups at 6-monthly scheduled assessments from age 12 to 36 months. Findings: From March 2013 to September 2018, 461 hearing assessments were performed. Prevalence of mild- moderate hearing loss declined in both groups from ~75% at age 12 months to ~53% at 36 months. At primary endpoint age 18 months, prevalence of moderate (disabling) hearing loss was 21% and 41% in the +P and +S groups, respectively (difference -19% [95% confidence interval -38, -1], p=0.07) and prevalence of normal hearing was 36% and 16%, respectively (difference 19% [95%CI 2, 37], p=0.05). At subsequent timepoints prevalence of moderate hearing loss remained lower in the +P group at -3% [95% CI -23, 18] at age 24 months, -12% [95%CI -30, 6] at 30 months, and -9% [95%CI -23, 5] at 36 months. Interpretation: This study provides first evidence of the high prevalence and persistence of mild and moderate hearing loss throughout early childhood. A lower prevalence of moderate (disabling) hearing loss in the +P group may have substantial benefits for high-risk children and warrants further investigation.
导言:在偏远社区,与听力正常的儿童相比,患有听力损失的澳大利亚原住民儿童在入学准备和学习成绩方面的风险更大。我们的目标是比较两种肺炎球菌结合疫苗 (PCV) 配方和混合接种方案(PREVIX 试验),以扩大保护范围并减少传导性听力损失,直至 36 个月大。试验方法在两项顺序平行、开放标签、随机对照试验中,符合条件的婴儿在出生 28-38 天时首先按 1:1:1 的比例被分配到标准或混合 PCV 主要接种方案中,然后在 12 个月大时按 1:1 的比例接种 PCV13(13 价肺炎球菌结合疫苗,+P)或 PHiD-CV10(10 价肺炎球菌流感嗜血杆菌蛋白 D 结合疫苗,+S)加强剂量。在此,我们报告了 +P 组和 +S 组在 12 到 36 个月的 6 个月预定评估中的次要听力结果。研究结果从 2013 年 3 月到 2018 年 9 月,共进行了 461 次听力评估。两组的轻度-中度听力损失发生率均从 12 个月大时的约 75% 下降到 36 个月大时的约 53%。在主要终点18个月大时,+P组和+S组的中度(致残)听力损失患病率分别为21%和41%(差异-19%[95%置信区间-38,-1],P=0.07),听力正常患病率分别为36%和16%(差异19%[95%CI 2,37],P=0.05)。在随后的时间点上,+P 组的中度听力损失率仍然较低,24 个月时为 -3% [95%CI -23, 18],30 个月时为 -12% [95%CI -30, 6],36 个月时为 -9% [95%CI -23, 5]。解释:这项研究首次证明了轻度和中度听力损失在整个幼儿期的高患病率和持续性。中度(致残性)听力损失在 +P 组中的发生率较低,这可能会对高危儿童产生巨大的益处,值得进一步研究。

Background: Avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is a feeding and eating disorder, characterized by limited variety and/or quantity of food intake impacting physical health and psychosocial functioning. Children with ARFID often present with a range of psychiatric and somatic symptoms, and therefore consult various pediatric subspecialties; large-scale studies mapping comorbidities are however lacking. To characterize health care needs of people with ARFID, we systematically investigated ARFID-related mental and somatic conditions in 616 children with ARFID and >30,000 children without ARFID.Methods: In a Swedish twin cohort, we identified the ARFID phenotype in 6-12-year-old children based on parent-reports and register data. From >1,000 diagnostic ICD-codes, we specified mental and somatic conditions within/across ICD-chapters, number of distinct per-person diagnoses, and inpatient treatment days between birth and 18th birthday (90 outcomes). Hazard ratios (HR) and incidence rate ratios (IRR) were calculated. Findings: Relative risks of neurodevelopmental, gastrointestinal, endocrine/metabolic, respiratory, neurological, and allergic disorders were substantially increased in ARFID (e.g., autism HR[CI95%]=9.7[7.5-12.5], intellectual disability 10.3[7.6-13.9], gastroesophageal reflux disease 6.7[4.6-9.9], pituitary conditions 5.6[2.7-11.3], chronic lower respiratory diseases 4.9[2.4-10.1], epilepsy 5.8[4.1-8.2]). ARFID was not associated with elevated risks of autoimmune illnesses and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Children with ARFID had a significantly higher number of distinct mental diagnoses (IRR[CI95%]=4.7[4.0-5.4]) and longer duration of hospitalizations (IRR[CI95%]=5.5[1.7-17.6]) compared with children without ARFID. Children with ARFID were diagnosed earlier with a mental condition than children without ARFID. No sex-specific differences emerged. Interpretation: This study yields the broadest and most detailed evidence of co-existing mental and somatic conditions in the largest sample of children with ARFID to date. Findings suggest a complex pattern of health needs in youth with ARFID, underscoring the critical importance of attention to the illness across all pediatric specialties.Funding: Fredrik and Ingrid Thurings Foundation, Mental Health Foundation.
背景:回避性限制性食物摄入障碍(ARFID)是一种进食和饮食障碍,其特点是食物摄入的种类和/或数量有限,影响身体健康和社会心理功能。患有 ARFID 的儿童通常伴有一系列精神和躯体症状,因此需要到儿科各专科就诊;但目前还缺乏对合并症进行调查的大规模研究。为了了解ARFID患者的医疗保健需求,我们对616名ARFID儿童和3万名无ARFID儿童的ARFID相关精神和躯体疾病进行了系统调查:在瑞典的一个双胞胎队列中,我们根据父母的报告和登记数据确定了 6-12 岁儿童的 ARFID 表型。从 1000 个 ICD 诊断代码中,我们确定了 ICD 章内/章间的精神和躯体疾病、每人不同诊断的数量以及出生至 18 岁生日期间的住院治疗天数(90 项结果)。计算了危险比(HR)和发病率比(IRR)。研究结果ARFID患者罹患神经发育、胃肠道、内分泌/代谢、呼吸系统、神经系统和过敏性疾病的相对风险大幅增加(例如:自闭症的HR[CI95%]和过敏性疾病的HR[CI95%])、自闭症 HR[CI95%]=9.7[7.5-12.5], 智力残疾 10.3[7.6-13.9], 胃食管反流病 6.7[4.6-9.9], 垂体疾病 5.6[2.7-11.3], 慢性下呼吸道疾病 4.9[2.4-10.1], 癫痫 5.8[4.1-8.2])。ARFID与自身免疫性疾病和强迫症的风险升高无关。与无ARFID的儿童相比,患有ARFID的儿童被诊断患有不同精神疾病的次数明显较多(IRR[CI95%]=4.7[4.0-5.4]),住院时间也较长(IRR[CI95%]=5.5[1.7-17.6])。与无ARFID儿童相比,ARFID儿童被诊断出患有精神疾病的时间更早。无性别差异。解释:这项研究提供了迄今为止最大的 ARFID 儿童样本中精神和躯体疾病并存的最广泛、最详细的证据。研究结果表明,患有ARFID的青少年的健康需求模式非常复杂,强调了所有儿科专科关注这种疾病的重要性:Fredrik and Ingrid Thurings 基金会、心理健康基金会。
