Abstract:
Objective To investigate the number of eosinophils in peripheral blood and total serum immunoglobulin E levels from children during infection of mycoplasma pneumoniae,which may elucidate what mycoplasma pneumoniae plays a role in persistent cough and asthma onset.Methods The number of eosinophils in peripheral blood was counted under microscope and total serum immunoglobulin E levels were determined by ELISA in 20 children with mycoplasmal infection ,30 patients with asthma and 25 control subjects.Results The number of eosinophils and total serum immunoglobulin E levels during mycoplasmal infection were significantly higher than in control group,and lower than in asthma.Conclusion The high eosinophil counts and total serum immunoglobulin E induced by mycoplasma pnemoniae play a key role in persistent cough and asthma attack.
