Eosinophilic duodenitis misdiagnosed as acute pancreatitis in a child: a case report.

Background: Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders beyond Eosinophilic Esophagitis (non-EoE EGIDs) are chronic rare inflammatory disorders characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.

Case Presentation: We report the first pediatric case of eosinophilic duodenitis (one type of the non-EoE EGIDs) with concomitant pancreatic reaction that was misdiagnosed as acute pancreatitis (AP). A 13-year-old girl was admitted to our hospital for a week of abdominal distension, vomiting, and epigastric pain that worsened recently.

A nomogram for predicting coronary artery lesions in patients with Kawasaki disease.

As an acute systemic vasculitis, Kawasaki disease (KD) could develop coronary artery lesions (CAL) sometimes. However, its etiology was still unidentified. This study was to construct a predictive model based on clinical features and laboratory parameters, and then perform a rapid risk assessment of CAL.

Parental Inflammatory Bowel Disease with Child Autism: A Comprehensive Review and Meta-Analysis.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has been shown to be connected to a greater possibility of neurologically developed problems, such as autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). However, the proof linking parental IBD with ASD in offspring is inconclusive. Thus, we carried out a meta-analysis and comprehensive review to elucidate such linking.

Experimental Study of the Influence of Moisture Content on the Pore Structure and Permeability of Anthracite Treated by Liquid Nitrogen Freeze-Thaw.

The liquid nitrogen freeze-thaw (LN-FT) method has been widely used to improve the coal permeability in the coalbed methane (CBM) production. However, the influence of moisture content on the permeability of coal treated by LN-FT remains unclear, limiting the broad application of this technique. A novel seepage system was proposed to analyze the permeability evolution of anthracite coal samples treated by LN-FT.

[A study on the chemical constituents from Polyporus ellissi].

Objective: To study the chemical constituents of Polyporus ellissi.

Method: Silica gel column chromatography was applied for the isolation and purification of the constituents. The structures were established by means of spectroscopic and chemical data.
