Abstract:
Objective To explore the efficacy of sodium valproate and haloperidol in the treatment of Tourette's syndrome in children and the effects on serum levels of insulin-like growth factor 1(IGF-1),neuron specific enolase(NSE)and S100β.Methods Children with Tourette's syndrome were divided into treatment group and control group.Control group was given oral administration of haloperidol 2 mg every time,twice or three times a day for 3 months,treatment group was given oral administration of 20 mg·kg-1·d-1 sodium valproate for every 12 hours,totally treatment for 3 months.The clinical efficacy,Yale Global Tourette Severity Scale(YGTSS),levels of serum IGF-1,NSE and S100β,neurotransmitters,cytokines,and occurrence of adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups of patients.Results A total of 150 patients were included in this study,including 5 cases of shedding during the trial,thus 73 cases in treatment group and 72 cases in control group were finally enrolled.The total effective rates of treatment in treatment group and control group were 91.78%(67 cases/73 cases)and 79.17%(57 cases/72 cases),with significant difference(P<0.05).The scores of motor tic of YGTSS in treatment group and control group after treatment were(9.79±1.73)and(11.05±2.18)points;the vocal tic scores were(10.52±2.06)and(11.37±2.24)points;the total scores of YGTSS were(20.31±2.57)and(22.42±2.57)points;serum levels of IGF-1 were(60.37±3.29)and(58.04±3.16)μg·L-1;levels of NSE were(95.26±10.19)and(101.81±10.54)ng·L-1,S100β levels were(83.69±10.33)and(87.05±9.76)ng·L-1;levels of 5-HT were(59.05±5.69)and(61.37±5.52)ng·mL-1;levels of GABA were(2.37±0.32)and(2.04±0.39)ng·mL-1;levels of NE were(32.85±4.63)and(29.24±4.02)ng·mL-1;levels of IL-6 in were(19.05±2.97)and(21.31±4.01)ng·mL-1,all with significant difference(all P<0.05).The recurrence rate in treatment group and control group were 16.44%(12 cases/73 cases)and 23.61%(17 cases/72 cases),with no significant difference(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse drug reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Compared with haloperidol,sodium valproate has higher effective rate in the treatment of children with Tourette's syndrome,and it can better relieve the clinical symptoms,improve the neurological function,and help to reduce the levels of serum IGF-1,NSE,S100βand inflammatory factors.
