Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship of serum 25-hydroxy vitaminD and total IgE levels in children with re-current Pneumonia but no underlying diseases. Methods Seventy-six children with recurrent pneumonia but no under-lying diseases and seventy-two children with single pneumonia who visited the hospital were divided into lob servation group. Sixty health examination children in child health clinic as a tontrol group. The levels of 25-hydroxy-vitamin D and total IgE were compared. Results Serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D levels were significantly lower in the re current pneumonia group than those in a single pneumonia group and control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D levels in the a single pneumonia group were lower than those in control group, but the difference were no statistically significant (P>0.05). Serum TIgE levels were significantly higher in the recurrent pneumonia group than those in the single pneumonia group and control group, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Serum TIgE levels in single pneumonia and control, the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion Vitamin D deficiency may be one of the factors for recurrent Pneumonia in children, attention should be paid in clinic to strengthen the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of vitamin D deficiency.
