不明病因儿童急性重症肝炎：数据及认识更新

近期不明原因儿童急性重症肝炎病例在全球多发，自苏格兰首次病例报道至今，已有33个国家通报了至少650例散发病例，相互间缺乏流行病学联系。患儿主要表现为急性肝炎。结合流行病学分析及临床表现初步推论，该疾患可能由感染所致。所有病例均排除甲、乙、丙、丁和戊型肝炎，实验室检测发现半数以上患儿人腺病毒(human adenovirus，HAdV)阳性，部分鉴定为HAdV-41型，提示腺病毒与此疾患发病存在关联性。主流病因推测并提出腺病毒基因重组、辅助因素诱导病毒嗜性改变假说，尤其是超抗原假说引发了广泛热议，即HAdV-41感染诱发严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2，SARS-CoV-2)超抗原介导中毒性休克及肝细胞凋亡的发生。最终病因至今尚未明确。本文从流行病学调查、病因分析、病理表现、实验室检查、病原学检测、诊疗规范、现行病例隔离管理及预防消毒措施等方面对本疾患相关信息进行更新，以期总结对本病发病机制及诊疗的最新认识。

中国和伊朗新型冠状病毒肺炎流行现状及比较分析

新型冠状病毒肺炎(Coronavirus disease 2019,COVID-19)已造成全球大流行,比较不同国家流行特征是了解该病流行规律的重要内容。为了推进我国提出的"一带一路"倡议,防止传染病跨境传播,并探讨COVID-19流行规律和不同国家传染病研究方法,本研究对中国和伊朗COVID-19流行特征和影响因素进行比较分析。根据世界卫生组织、国家卫生健康委员会及新闻媒体等提供的数据和信息,采用描述流行病学方法和Pearson相关进行分析,结果显示,截至2020年7月31日24时,中国累计报告确诊病例88122例,占全球报告0.50%,位居28位;同期伊朗确诊304204例,占全球1.73%,位居全球第9位。2020年4月22日伊朗报告累计确诊病例数首次超过中国,中国宁夏回族自治区、北京市、上海市、甘肃省、广东省分别报告有伊朗输入病例。COVID-19流行水平和严重程度伊朗高于中国:伊朗的发病率为371/10万、中国6.29/10万;伊朗的死亡率为20/10万、中国0.33/10万;伊朗的治愈率为86.63%、中国为92.18%;病死率两国水平接近;伊朗平均每日新增确诊病例数1395例,中国404例。中国疫情出现拐点的时间较伊朗早,每日新增确诊病例首次出现下降用时25d(伊朗42d)、每日新增治愈超过新增确诊用时31d(伊朗49d)。伊朗疫情在5月后出现持续反弹,2020年6月4日确诊病例数达反弹峰值(3574例),超过前期的3186例,且在多数时间新增治愈人数低于新增确诊人数。中国和伊朗每日新增确诊、新增治愈病例数趋势形态不同,中国新增治愈病例数趋势图整体延后新增确诊病例,而伊朗新增治愈与新增确诊病例数几乎同步。相关分析显示武汉每日新增确诊病例数在划分的两个阶段与预防控制措施得分均呈正相关(相关系数分别为0.44、0.53),而与当时武汉的气象因素平均气压(百帕)、平均2min风速(米/秒)、平均气温(℃)、平均相对湿度(百分率)、日照时数(时)无相关性;伊朗在疫情的第一阶段呈正相关,第二阶段为负相关。COVID-19在中国和伊朗的流行存在差异,对不同国家流行情况进行比较研究,有助于加深对COVID-19全球大流行的认识。     

2014-2016年南充市儿童手足口病重症流行病学调查及危险因素分析

摘要 目的：了解南充市儿童重症手足口病流行病学特征及其相关危险因素,为降低儿童重症手足口病发病率提供依据。方法：对中国"疾病监测信息报告管理系统"中确诊的南充市（顺庆区、高坪区、嘉陵区、阆中市）2014-2016年儿童手足口病的病例信息进行研究,分析该市儿童手足口病疫情、时间分布、地区分布和人群分布特征,并应用单因素和多因素Logistic回归分析儿童重症手足口病危险因素。结果：2014-2016年顺庆区、高坪区、嘉陵区、阆中市共报告儿童手足口病8068例,其中重症病例426例,占5.28%。全年均有手足口病发生,4~7月为手足口病发病高峰期,2014年峰值明显高于2015年、2016年,重症手足口病时间分布和发病高峰期与以上相同。顺庆区、高坪区、嘉陵区、阆中市均有手足口病发生,阆中市重症病例比例均高于其他辖区,差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）。男性患儿重症病例构成比较高,不同性别患儿重症病例构成比比较差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）;重症病例主要集中在1~3岁儿童,不同年龄段重症病例构成比比较差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）,重症病例主要分布在散居儿童和农村儿童,不同生活方式、不同家庭住址重症病例构成比比较差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）;重症病例主要分布在3~6天时间间隔的就诊患儿,不同就诊时间间隔重症病例构成比比较差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）。多因素Logistic分析显示：年龄为1-3岁、散居、家庭住址为农村是重症手足口病的危险因素（P<0.05）。结论：年龄为1-3岁、散居、家庭住址为农村是重症手足口病的危险因素,应在流动人口集中、生活条件较差的地区开展手足口病的宣传教育,提高人们对手足口病防治的认知,对于1-3岁儿童应作为疾病重点防控对象,提高家长疾病防控意识,以降低重症手足口病的发病率。     

Clinical and epidemiologic characteristics of hepatitis C in a gastroenterology/hepatology practice in Ottawa.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the clinical and epidemiologic features of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in a gastroenterology/hepatology practice in Ottawa. DESIGN: Retrospective chart review. PATIENTS: Sixty-three consecutive patients found to be anti-HCV positive. Their charts were analysed with respect to risk factors, history of hepatitis, serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels and the presence of hepatitis B markers. The long-term sexual partners of 29 patients agreed to undergo HCV antibody testing. RESULTS: Of the patients 48 (76%) had been exposed to HCV parenterally: 27 used intravenous drugs, and 21 had received blood or blood products. Eleven patients did not have any known risk factor (sporadic infection), but eight of them had lived in countries where hepatitis C may be more prevalent; the other three had locally acquired infection. The mean serum AST level at the first visit was 140 (normally less than 40) IU/L. At least one hepatitis B marker was identified in 33% of the patients. None of the sexual partners who were tested were anti-HCV positive. CONCLUSION: Most cases of hepatitis C in Ottawa are acquired through parenteral exposure; sexual transmission is rare. Sporadic infection in the Ottawa region is rare but may be more common in people from countries with a higher prevalence rate of hepatitis C. Most cases of hepatitis C are asymptomatic.     

Thyroid disease and other maternal factors in mongolism

One hundred women, who at the age of 35 years or more had had a child with mongolism, were investigated to discover any relation between thyroid disease and autoimmunity and mongolism and to search for other possible etiological factors. They were compared with 100 matched controls. The mothers of mongoloid children had a higher incidence of thyroid disease, either hypo- or hyperactivity (11 compared with three in the control group). The proportion with thyroglobulin antibodies was the same (18.8%) in both groups and mean serum protein-bound iodine levels were similar. There was no difference in reproductive history, diseases other than of the thyroid, frequency of previous pelvic and abdominal x-rays or incidence of infectious hepatitis during the year prior to conception.     

Serum leucine aminopeptidase for monitoring viral infections with plasmacytoid reaction

Analysis of data on 9 cases with active cytomegalovirus infection in patients with kidney grafts showed a positive association of serum leucine aminopeptidase activity concentration with the appearance of plasmacytoid lymphocytes in blood. Additional studies indicate that like the liver, the lymphocytes contain leucine aminopeptidase in relatively large quantities and that this enzyme is increased about 3-fold in plasmacytoid lymphocytes when compared with the activity in normal lymphocytes. In contrast, the 'hepatic' enzyme alanine aminotransferase is practically absent in both lymphocytes and plasmacytoid cells. Therefore, the difference in serum between the relative increases of leucine aminopeptidase and alanine aminotransferase may be attributed to proliferating plasmacytoid lymphocytes. Earlier observations on a large number of cases of acute viral hepatitis A or B lend credence to this assumption. However, in this disease, the serum enzyme changes reflect the much greater involvement of the liver and the relatively slight, but significant, proliferation of plasmacytoid lymphocytes. Our hypothesis is confirmed by the recent observation of 3 cases of acute EBV infection (infectious mononucleosis) in otherwise healthy individuals showing greatly elevated leucine aminopeptidase in contrast to normal or slightly raised alanine aminotransferase in serum.     

Unexplained hepatitis following halothane.

Full clinical and laboratory details of 203 patients with postoperative jaundice were submitted to a panel of hepatologists. All patients whose jaundice may have had an identifiable cause were excluded, which left 76 patients with unexplained hepatitis following halothane anaesthesia (UHFH). Hepatitis in 95% of these cases followed multiple exposure to halothane, with repeated exposure within four weeks in 55% of cases. Twenty-nine patients were obese, 52 were aged 41-70, and 53 were women. Thirteen patients died in acute hepatic failure. Rapid onset of jaundice after anaesthesia, male sex, and obesity in either sex were poor prognostic signs. Of the clinical stigmata of hypersensitivity, only eosinophilia was impressive. The UHFH group had a much greater incidence of liver kidney microsomal (LKM) and thyroid antibodies and autoimmune complement fixation than those patients whose jaundice related to identifiable factors. Thirteen of the 19 patients with LKM antibodies also had thyroid antibodies. In six patients retested two to three years later LKM antibodies had disappeared, although thyroid antibodies persisted. Rapidly repeated exposure to halothane may cause hepatitis, but such a complication is probably rare. Possibly obese women with a tendency to organ-specific autoimmunity may be more at risk. Nevertheless, the comparative risks of rapidly repeated halothane or non-halothane anaesthesia cannot be determined from the present data. If alternative satisfactory agents are available halothane should be avoided in patients with unexplained hepatitis after previous exposure, although in three to five patients with UHFH who were re-exposed to halothane jaundice did not recur.     

Study of cardiac arrhythmias and other forms of conduction abnormality in newborn infants.

In an unselected population of 2030 newborn infants studied by electrocardiography (ECG) between April 1975 and April 1977, 35 were found to have arrhythmias or other cardiac conduction abnormalities. Further investigation by means of 24-hour ECG monitoring showed that apparently serious tachyarrhythmias, such as ventricular tachycardia and slow heart rates associated with sinoatrial block, may be present without clinical disturbance in some newborn babies. Six infants had both bradycardia and tachycardia in the 24-hour recording, although the screening ECG had shown only one of these abnormalities. The alarming ECG appearance of some of the arrhythmias suggested a possible aetiological link with some unexplained sudden infant deaths: a multicentre study could determine this more readily and is therefore recommended.     

EBV与HCMV传染性单核细胞增多症患儿的实验室指标比较

目的观察EB病毒（EBV）与人类巨细胞病毒（HCMV）感染所致的传染性单核细胞增多症（IM）患儿超敏C-反应蛋白（hs-CRP）、白细胞（WBC）计数、嗜中性粒细胞比值（N）、异常淋巴细胞（异淋）、嗜异性抗体和血清酶的变化。方法选择70例确诊有EBV病毒感染且具备传染性单核细胞增多症临床特点的患儿（A组）进行实验室检测指标分析及总结;并与37例HCMV相关传染性单核细胞增多症患儿（B组）进行比较。结果与EB组（A组）比较,HCMV组（B组）感染患儿hs-CRP水平、肌酸激酶同功酶（CK-MB）、丙氨酸氨基转移酶（ALT）、外周血WBC计数、异型淋巴细胞增高程度较低（P〈0.05）,嗜异性抗体常为阴性,两组N值差异无统计学意义（P〉0.05）。结论 EBV与HCMV感染所致的传染性单核细胞增多症患儿的实验室指标变化不同,应重视IM患儿的实验室检查以辅助诊断。     

Hepatitis-associated antigen in sporadic cases of acute viral hepatitis

Serum specimens collected during the period from September 1970 to April 1971 from hospitalized patients and apparently healthy staff members at risk were tested for the presence of hepatitis-associated antigen (HAA) by the parallel use of three techniques: the complement fixation test, crossover-electrophoresis and immuno-electronmicroscopy.Out of a total of 204 persons investigated 63 (30.9%) were found to harbour the antigen. The HAA-positive sera originated almost exclusively from sporadic cases of acute viral hepatitis (clinically diagnosed as “infectious hepatitis” or “serum hepatitis”). The great majority of the hepatitis cases studied had a history of drug addiction.     

A study of sister-chromatid exchange in peripheral lymphocytes of hepatitis B patients with HBsAg positive and their children

Previous studies of sister-chromatid exchange (SCE) in patients with hepatitis B have been reported. But as far as we know, no such work has been done in children born to parents with hepatitis B, either one or both of whom are infected. In the present study, frequencies of SCE in the peripheral lymphocytes of 30 hepatitis B parents with hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) positive and 40 of their children were observed. SCE frequencies of 20 normal adults and 3 normal children were analysed for comparison with the patients and their children. The results obtained from all of the samples were as follows: The hepatitis B patients with HBsAg positive had a significantly higher SCE frequency than the normal adults (P less than 0.01); the children born after their parents contracted hepatitis B had a significantly higher SCE frequency than normal children (P less than 0.01); there was no significant difference in SCE (P greater than 0.05) between children born after their parents contracted hepatitis B, children born after their mothers acquired it and children born after their fathers acquired it. The above results indicate that hepatitis B patients with HBsAg positive and their children born after they contracted hepatitis B had significantly higher frequencies of SCE; these data might throw new light on the study of genetic factors acting on the mechanism of hepatitis B.     

77例不明原因肝功能异常患者的临床与病理特点

目的探讨不明原因肝功能异常患者的临床与病理特点。方法75例不明原因肝功能异常患者行1秒钟肝穿刺,2例外科手术肝活检,标本均送免疫组化双标记及HE染色、Masson染色、网状纤维染色、罗丹宁铜染色、普鲁士蓝染色,进一步分析其临床及病理特点。结果77例病因不明肝功能异常患者除6例无诊断学异常及3例非特异性炎症外,其余68例（88．31％）经肝组织病理检查分别诊断为急慢性肝炎12例、自身免疫性肝病27例、代谢性肝病4例、脂肪性肝病11例、药物性肝损伤10例、先天性肝纤维化及肝小静脉闭塞病各1例。结论肝组织病理检查在不明原因肝功能异常患者诊断价值较高,但由于病理检查存在一定的局限性,如果重视临床资料收集,通过临床及病理特点相结合的方法可进一步提高临床确诊率。     

Prevalence of moderate and severe depression among Croatian patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus

The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of depression among Croatian patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and to make a comparison with patients with other acute and chronic infectious diseases. We assessed the depressive disorder using the Beck Depression Inventory questionnaire (BDI), without clinical confirmation. The BDI scores were examined in 80 HIV-infected persons and compared to 80 persons with chronic viral hepatitis and 78 with acute infectious diarrhea. All examinees were treated as outpatients at the University Hospital for Infectious Diseases in Zagreb in March and April of 2003. Prevalence of moderate and severe depression among HIV-infected was 16/80 (20%) with a 95% confidence interval 11% to 29%. Male patients with HIV or chronic viral hepatitis had a significantly higher BDI scores than males with acute infectious diarrhea (p = 0.017, Kruskall-Wallis, d.f. 2). Female patients with HIV infection tended to have a lower BDI score than females with chronic viral hepatitis or acute infectious diarrhea (p = 0.087, Kruskall-Wallis, d.f. 2). Prevalence of moderate and severe depression among Croatian HIV-positive patients is higher than the upper estimate for general population. Croatian males with chronic infectious disease have higher rate of depression than those with acute infectious disease.
