Enterocolitis

Enterocolitis is a zoonotic infection caused by Yersinia. This bacterium is the pathogen of acute gastroenteritis food poisoning that attracted attention in the 1930s, and is transmitted primarily through the digestive tract through contaminated drinking water and food. Enterocolitis is common in infants, whose symptoms are more serious and have a high mortality rate, a serious threat to the health and life of newborns. It is characterized by necrosis of the mucosa and even the deep intestine, most often in the terminal ileum. At present, the pathogenesis of enterocolitis is still unclear, and its diagnosis and treatment have been a key issue that researchers have been paying attention to for a long time. Correct diagnosis is an important guarantee for scientific treatment and improving the prognosis of children.

Diagnosis of Enterocolitis

There are several methods to diagnose enterocolitis:

• Blood routine. Patients with enterocolitis may experience changes such as an increase in white blood cell counts or a decrease in platelet counts. If the level of cells and platelets decreases progressively, it may be considered as a deterioration of the condition. A significant increase in C-reactive protein is also one of the manifestations of enterocolitis.
• Serological examination. Convalescent serum agglutination test showed a more than four-fold increase in titer or the titer of more than 1:160 than in the acute phase, which has diagnostic significance. Serum anti-Yersinia outer membrane protein IgA, IgG detection method can also be used, with higher specificity.
• Imaging test. Ultrasound and abdominal X-ray films are mainly used as imaging examination methods for clinical diagnosis.
