Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To explore the changes of serum inflammatory factors and immune function indexes in the children with asthma induced by Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection so as to make a new breakthrough in diagnosis and treatment of the children with M.pneumoniae infection-induced asthma.METHODS A total of 118 children with M.pneumoniae infection who were treated in pediatrics department of The Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical College from Jan.2020 to May 2023 were enrolled in the study and were divided into the asthma group with 26 cases and the no asthma group with 92 cases according to the status of induction of asthma.The levels of peripheral blood interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-18,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and immune function indexes(CD3+,CD4+,CD8+and CD4+/CD8+)were observed and compared between the two groups.The values of the above indexes in diagnosis of the M.pneumoniae infection-induced asthma were analyzed by means of receiver op-erating characteristic(ROC)curves.RESULTS There were significant differences in the levels of inflammatory factors and immune function indexes between the asthma group and the no asthma group(P＜0.05).The levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-18 and CD8+of the asthma group were(46.33±5.30)pg/ml,(50.60±6.33)pg/ml,(40.26±4.89)pg/ml and(40.11±6.85)％,respectively,higher than those of the no asthma group;the levels of CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+of the asthma group were(43.33±5.89)％,(15.62±3.61)％and(0.35±0.12),re-spectively,lower than those of the no asthma group.In the asthma group,the levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-18 and CD8+of the MP-Immunoglobulin M(IgM)-positive children were higher than those of the MP-IgM-negative chil-dren(P＜0.05),while the levels of CD3+,CD4+and CD4+/CD8+of the MP-IgM-positive children were lower than those of the MP-IgM-negative children(P＜0.05).The areas under the ROC curves(AUCs)of the serum TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-18,CD3+,CD4+,CD8+and CD4+/CD8+were 0.812,0.805,0.795,0.814,0.768,0.805 and 0.841,respectively,in diagnosis of the M.pneumoniae infection-induced asthma.CONCLUSION The serum TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-18,CD3+,CD4+,CD8+and CD4+/CD8+of the children with M.pneumoniae infection can be used for prediction of the asthma.
