摘要: 目的 探讨深圳儿童血清微量元素钴水平与手足口病感染的关系。方法 于2013-2015年间在深圳市儿童医院采集手足口病重症病例(202例)、轻症(220例)和在该院体检的健康儿童(208例)的咽拭/肛拭样本及血样。采用实时荧光定量聚合酶链式反应(polymerase chain reaction,PCR)检测病原体类型。用水浴酸消化-电感耦合等离子体质谱法测定血清中钴含量,并进行统计学分析。结果 对照组、轻症组与重症组儿童血清微量元素钴含量分别为0.36 μg/kg、0.40 μg/kg和0.31 μg/kg。重症组钴含量低于轻症组和对照组(均有P<0.05),轻症组与对照组间钴含量差异无统计学意义(Z=-0.821,P=0.412)。钴与手足口病病情呈中度负相关(r=-0.298,P<0.001)。血清钴水平在性别间、年龄间差异均无统计学意义(均有P>0.05)。不同病毒感染类型(EV71型、CA16型、其他)间血清钴含量均有差异,其中轻症组中EV71型患儿血清钴水平高于CA16型,差异有统计学意义(Z=4.397,P<0.001)。重症组中EV71型与CA16型患儿血清钴水平差异无统计学意义(Z=-1.821,P=0.069)。同时Logistic回归分析结果显示随着一定范围内血清钴浓度的升高,患手足口病风险降低。结论 儿童血清微量元素钴含量可能对儿童感染手足口病有一定作用。Abstract: Objective To investigate the relationship between serum levels of cobalt (Co) in children with hand foot and mouth disease (HFMD) and the severity of the symptoms manifested. Methods The children with HFMD were recruited in Shenzhen Children's Hospital from 2013 to 2015, and they were divided into severe group (202 cases)、mild group (220 cases), and control group(208 cases)according to their severity of symptom.For each child,a rectabl swab, a saliva swab, and a blood sample were collected. The types of pathogens infected was analyzed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR), and the levels of serum Co were detected by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Results The average concentrations of serum Co in the severe, mild and control groups were 0.36 μg/kg, 0.40 μg/kg and 0.31 μg/kg, respectively. The serum Co levels in the severe group were significantly lower than other groups(all P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in levels of serum Co between the mild group and the control group (Z=-0.821,P=0.412). There were moderate negative correlation between the levels of Co and the severity of HFMD (r=-0.298,P<0.001). No significant differences of serum Co levels were observed among different genders and different age groups(all P>0.05), while significant differences were observed among different enterovirus tenterovirus types.The level of serum Coin children infected by EV71 were significantly higher than those infected by CA16 in the mild group(Z=4.397,P<0.001), while this difference was not observed in the severe group (Z=-1.821,P=0.069). And the results of Logistic regression analysis showed that with a certain range increase,of serum cobalt concentration, the risk of infected by HFMD decreased. Conclusions The level of cobalt (Co) in serum of children may have an effect on children's hand foot and mouth disease.
