Abstract:
Objective To study the correlation between hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in lung-spleen damp-heat syndrome, syndrome of stagnation and steaming due to damp-heat, and syndrome of stirring wind due to toxic-heat with IL-6, PCT, CRP, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and NK cells.Methods Ninety patients with HFMD were randomly selected, dividing into lung-spleen damp-heat syndrome, syndrome of stagnation and steaming due to damp-heat, and syndrome of stirring wind due to toxic-heat, 30 cases for each syndrome. IL-6, PCT, CRP, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and NK cells were detected, and the distribution of above indicators in the three syndromes were analyzed.Results Levels of IL-6, PCT and CRP in syndrome of stirring wind due to toxic-heat were significantly higher than those in lung-spleen damp-heat syndrome and syndrome of stagnation and steaming due to damp-heat, with statistical significance (P<0.01); There was statistical significance in absolute value counting of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and NK cells among the three syndromes (P<0.01); There was statistical significance in the percentage of CD3+ cells in syndrome of stirring wind due to toxic-heat and lung-spleen damp-heat syndrome (P<0.01) and syndrome of stagnation and steaming due to damp-heat (P<0.05); There was statistical significance in the percentage of CD4+ cells syndrome of stirring wind due to toxic-heat and lung-spleen damp-heat syndrome (P<0.05) and syndrome of stagnation and steaming due to damp-heat (P<0.01); There was statistical significance in the percentages of CD8+ and NK cells in the three syndromes (P<0.01).Conclusion Proinflammatory cytokines, proinflammatory markers, and T cell sub-group related to HFMD in lung-spleen damp-heat syndrome, syndrome of stagnation and steaming due to damp-heat, syndrome of stirring wind due to toxic-heat are not only correlative with morbidity, but also with the severity of diseases and prognosis, which can relatively effectively evaluate the state of diseases and judge prognosis.
