Abstract:
Objective To explore the the role of fraction exhaled nitric oxide(FeNO) in airway inflammation of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP).Methods Inpatients with low respiratory tract infection were enrolled from August to November in 2012,69 patients had MPP and 33 had no MPP(non-MPP).Patients with MPP were further grouped into a bronchopneumonia group and the lobar pneumonia group.Fifty-four inguinal hernia patients without respiratory tract infection during the last 2 weeks were enrolled as a control group.FeNO was measured by nitric oxide analyzer.Eosinophile level was detected by blood cells analysator.Results The level of FeNO in patients with MPP [(6.28 ±3.00) ppb] was lower than that of patients of non-MPP [(10.85 ± 2.86) ppb] and the control group [(9.74 ± 3.10) ppb] (t =7.30,6.26,respectively,all P < 0.000 1) ; the level of FeNO between the bronchopneumonia group [(5.78 ± 3.06) ppb] and the lobar pneumonia group [(6.48 ± 2.98) ppb] with infection of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) had no statistical significance(t =0.88,P >0.05).The proportion of blood eosinophile in patients with MPP [(0.60 ±0.51) %] was lower than that of non-MPP group [(1.15 ± 0.76) %] (t =4.14,P < 0.000 1) ; the proportion of blood eosinophile between bronchopneumonia group [(0.61 ± 0.57) %] and lobar pneumonia group [(0.60 ± 0.55) %] with infection of MP had no discrepance (t =-0.05,P >0.05).Conclusions MP infection decreases production of FeNO.The possible mechanism for this phenomenon is that the cilia loss and hyperimmune response to MP may affect the production of FeNO.The airway inflammation of mycoplasma pneumonia is associated with cilia loss and hyperimmune response.
