Effects of Huaiqihuang granules on immune function in children with severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia
Objective To observe the effects of Huaiqihuang granules on the immune function in children with severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia. Methods Pediatric inpatients with severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia were randomly divided into Huaiqihuang granule treatment group (n=51) and conventional treatment group (n=47). The Huaiqihuang granule treatment group was orally administered Huaiqihuang granules in addition to the conventional treatment, while the conventional treatment group received conventional treatment only. Levels of serum IgA, IgG, and IgM, percentages of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocyte subsets, and CD4+/CD8+ ratio were examined in the two groups. The incidence rate of respiratory tract re-infection within three months following treatment was compared between the two groups. Results The levels of serum IgA, IgG, and IgM, the percentage of CD4+ T lymphocytes, and the CD4+/CD8+ ratio were significantly higher in the Huaiqihuang granule treatment group than in the conventional treatment group three months after treatment (P < 0.05). In contrast, the percentage of CD8+ T lymphocytes was signifcantly lower in the Huaiqihuang granule treatment group than in the conventional treatment group (P < 0.05). In addition, the incidence rate of respiratory tract re-infection within three months following treatment was signifcantly lower in the Huaiqihuang granule treatment group than in the conventional treatment group (P < 0.05). Conclusions Huaiqihuang granules can regulate immune functions and reduce the incidence of short-term respiratory tract re-infection in children with severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia.
