Abstract
Kawasaki disease (KD) has shown a marked increase in trend over the globe, especially within the last two decades. Kawasaki disease is often seen in the paediatric population below five years old, while it is rare for those who are beyond that age. Up to this date, no exact causes has been identified although KD was found more than half a century ago. The underlying pathogenesis of the disease is still unelucidated, and researchers are trying to unlock the mystery of KD. To further complicate the diagnosis and the prompt management, a specific biomarker for the diagnosis of KD is yet to be discovered, making it hard to differentiate between KD and other diseases with a similar presentation. Nonetheless, since its discovery, clinicians and scientists alike had known more about the different clinical aspects of typical KD. Thus, this article intends to revisit and review the various clinical manifestations and laboratory characteristics of KD in order to guide the diagnosis of KD.

Immunotherapy of multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) following COVID-19 through mesenchymal stem cells. Int Immunopharmacol 2021; 101:108217.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a new type of coronavirus causing coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) that was first observed in Wuhan, China, in Dec. 2019. An inflammatory immune response targeting children appeared during the pandemic, which was associated with COVID-19 named multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C). Characteristics of MIS-C include the classic inflammation findings, multi-organ dysfunction, and fever as the cardinal feature. Up to now, no specific therapy has been identified for MIS-C. Currently, considerable progress has been obtained in the MIS-C treatment by cell therapy, specially Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Unique properties have been reported for MSCs, such as various resources for purification of cell, high proliferation, self-renewal, non-invasive procedure, tissue regenerator, multidirectional differentiation, and immunosuppression. As indicated by a recent clinical research, MSCs have the ability of reducing disease inflammation and severity in children with MIS-C. In the present review study, the benefits and characteristics of MSCs and exosomes are discussed for treating patients with MIS-C.

Liu X, Shao S, Wang L, Zhang N, Wu M, Liu L, Zhao L, Hua Y, Zhou K, Luo C, Deng Y, Wang C. Predictive Value of the Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index for Intravenous Immunoglobulin Resistance and Cardiovascular Complications in Kawasaki Disease. Front Cardiovasc Med 2021; 8:711007. [PMID: 34504878 PMCID: PMC8421732 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.711007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 07/26/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The prediction of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) resistance and cardiovascular complications are critically clinical issues in Kawasaki disease (KD). This prospective study firstly aimed to determine the predictive ability of the systemic immune inflammation index (SII) for IVIG resistance and cardiovascular complications and compare the prognostic accuracy of SII with that of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR). Methods: Patients with KD were divided into different groups according to the presence of IVIG resistance or cardiovascular complications (coronary artery lesions, valve regurgitation, myocarditis, pericardial effusion, and Kawasaki disease shock syndrome [KDSS]). The clinical and laboratory parameters were compared. Further analysis stratified by platelet level was performed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify predictors for IVIG resistance and cardiovascular complications. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was applied to assess and compare the ability of SII, NLR, and PLR for predicting IVIG resistance and cardiovascular complications. Results: SII was significantly higher in KD patients with IVIG-resistance, myocarditis, valve regurgitation, and KDSS. It was identified as an independent risk factor for IVIG resistance, myocarditis, and valve regurgitation. For KD patients with thrombocytopenia, there were no significant differences in SII between KD patients with IVIG resistance/cardiovascular complications and those without. The best cutoff values of SII for IVIG resistance, myocarditis, valve regurgitation, and KDSS prediction in the whole cohort were 1331.4 × 109, 1368.6 × 109, 1002.4 × 109, and 1485.4 × 109, with a corresponding sensitivity of 0.525, 0.614, 0.754, and 0.670, a specificity of 0.711, 0.723, 0.584, and 0.730, respectively. The predictive value of SII for both IVIG resistance and cardiovascular complications were not superior to that of NLR. Conclusion: Although the parameter of SII may predict IVIG resistance, myocarditis, valve regurgitation, and KDSS in KD as a single parameter, its predictive ability was not good enough and not superior to NLR. SII might not be applicable in patients with KD having thrombocytopenia.
