Abstract:
Objective To investigate the influence of IVIG on immunologic function and cytokines levels in children with EV71 infection associated high-risk pulmonary hemorrhage. Methods According to the inclu-sion criteria , 64 children were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups: 39 cases in the IVIG treatment group and 25 cases in the general treatment group. The alternations of blood and immune cytokine markers before and after treatment were detected in the patients. Results (1) Before treatment, the peripheral blood T cells, TH and B cells in the IVIG group were higher than those in the general group , but the peripheral blood IgA was lower than that in the general group(P < 0.05); (2) In the IVIG group, the NK cells and IgG increased and T cells, TH cell and B cells significantly decreased after receiving IVIG therapy (P < 0.05); (3)No significant difference was observed in the levels of IL-6 and IL-10 in the two treatment groups before treatment. However , after IVIG treatment, IL-6 and IFN-γ levels reduced, IL-10 level increased (P < 0.05). After the general treat-ment, no significant difference was found in levels of IL-6,IL-10 and IFN-γ in peripheral blood (P > 0.05). Conclusion Disorders of cellular immunity and humoral immunity appeared in children with EV71 infection-re-lated high-risk pulmonary hemorrhage. It has clinical value to use IVIG timely to regulate the immune disorder.
