Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is a disease that severely affects the physical health of children. Thus, we aimed to identify biomarkers associated with AML prognosis in children. Using transcriptomics on an mRNA dataset from 27 children with non-M3 AML, we selected genes from among those with the top 5000 median absolute deviation (MAD) values for subsequent analysis which showed that two modules were associated with AML risk groups.

Objective: To study the effect of the leukotriene receptor agonist montelukast combined with methylprednisolone on inflammatory response and peripheral blood lymphocyte subset content in children with mycoplasma pneumonia.

Methods: Seventy-four children were enrolled and randomly divided into a standard treatment group and a montelukast plus methylprednisolone group. Serum levels of inflammatory cytokines and corresponding cytokines of T lymphocyte subsets were measured, and peripheral blood was collected to determine the T cell subset content.

Objective: To investigate the molecule epidemic for 7 genes interrelated penicillin, erythromycin, tetracycline, vancomycin resistance of isolated Streptococcus pneumoniae (SP) in children at Suzhou area.

Methods: (1) Thirty-one pneumococcal isolates were collected from respiratory tract secretions of children with respiratory diseases from Nov 2002 to Apr 2003 at the Children's Hospital of Suzhou University (reference strain ATCC49619). (2) Penicillin susceptibility was determined by E-test, while erythromycin, tetracycline, vancomycin were determined by K-B disk.

Objective: To investigate the beta-lactamase TEM gene of isolated Streptococcus pneumoniae (Sp) in Suzhou area.

Methods: Twenty-three strains of Sp were collected from respiratory tract secretions of children with respiratory diseases in Nov 2002 to Apr 2003 at Children's Hospital of Suzhou University (reference strain ATCC49619) to build TEM polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system (reference strain E. coli.
