METHODS: The genotypes for the C/T-13910 variant associated with lactase non-persistence/ persistence were determined using PCR-minisequencing in a group of 172 children with a mean age of 8.6 years (SE = 0.02, 93 boys) participating in a follow-up study for cow's milk allergy. The parents were asked to assess their children's milk consumption and abdominal symptoms. RESULTS: The presence of allergy to cow's milk was not associated with the C/C-13910 genotype related with a decline of lactase enzyme activity during childhood (lactase non-persistence). The frequency of the C/C-13910 genotype (16%) was similar to published figures for the prevalence of adult-type hypolactasia in Finland. The majority of the children (90%) in this series consumed milk but 26% of their families suspected that their children had milk-related symptoms. Forty-eight percent of the children with the C/C-13910 genotype did not drink milk at all or consumed a low lactose containing diet prior to the genotyping (P〈 0.004 when compared to the other genotypes). CONCLUSION: Analysis of the C/T-13910 polymorphism is an easy and reliable method for excluding adult-type hypolactasia in children with milk-related symptoms. Genotyping for this variant can be used to advise diets for children with a previous history of cow's milk allergy.展开更多

文摘目的:初步探讨孕期因素与婴儿牛奶蛋白过敏的关系。方法:数据来自一项“中国儿童对牛奶蛋白过敏的遗传易感性研究”的子队列,包括2020年3月1日至12月31日在北京大学人民医院出生的婴儿,根据随访至1岁时有无牛奶蛋白过敏(cow’s milk protein allergy,CMPA),分为病例组(CMPA组)和对照组。回顾性收集婴儿及其母亲孕前和孕期的临床资料,分析孕期多因素与婴儿牛奶蛋白过敏的相关性。结果:共纳入278例婴儿,CMPA患儿52例,对照组226例;男性婴儿143例,女性婴儿135例,其中男性婴儿在CMPA组比例(69.2%)高于对照组(47.3%),差异有统计学意义(P=0.004);CMPA患儿和对照组在出生体质量、出生胎龄、低出生体重儿、早产、脐带绕颈、新生儿窒息分布上差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。母亲孕期合并免疫性疾病、贫血者以及孕期存在抗生素暴露者在CMPA组比例均高于对照组,两组之间差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);其他妊娠期合并症,如子痫/子痫前期、慢性高血压/妊娠期高血压、糖尿病/妊娠期糖尿病、甲状腺疾病等在两组分布差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。CMPA组与对照组孕期多项血常规指标总体分布差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。多因素Logistic回归分析发现男性婴儿、母亲妊娠合并免疫性疾病、妊娠合并贫血以及孕期抗生素暴露是CMPA发生的独立危险因素。结论:男性婴儿、母亲妊娠合并免疫性疾病、妊娠合并贫血以及孕期抗生素暴露是CMPA发生的独立危险因素。
