Abstract:Objective To explore the effect of Montelukast Sodium combined with interferon aerosol inhalation on immune function and levels of inflammatory factors in school-age children with pneumonia.Methods A total of 80 school-age children with pneumonia admitted to the Fifth Hospital of Xiamen from June 2022 to June 2023 were selected as the study objects,and they were divided into control group (40 cases) and observation group (40 cases) according to the random number table method.The children in the control group were treated with Montelukast Sodium,and the children in observation group were given Montelukast Sodium combined with interferon aerosol inhalation.The changes in immune function cluster of differentiation (CD3+、CD4+、CD8+),serum inflammatory factors (hypersensitive C-reactive protein[hs-CRP],procalcitonin [PCT],interleukin-6 [IL-6],interleukin-2 [IL-2])and oxidative stress (superoxide dismutase[SOD],total antioxidant capacity [T-AOC],advanced oxidative protein products [AOPPs],lipid hydroperoxide [LHP]) were observed and compared between both groups before treatment and after 2 weeks of treatment.The difference in disease condition (pneumonia severity index [PSI])was compared between the two groups after 2 weeks of treatment.Results The levels of CD3+and CD4+after 2 weeks of treatment in observation group were higher than those of the control group,while the level of CD8+was lower than that of the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).After 2 weeks of treatment,the level of IL-2 in observation group was higher than that of the control group,while the levels of hs-CRP,PCT and IL-6 of the observation group were lower than those of the control group,with statistical differences (P<0.05).After 2 weeks of treatment,the levels of SOD and T-AOC in the observation group were higher than those of the control group,while AOPPs and LHP of the observation group were lower than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences (P<0.05).After 2 weeks of treatment,the PSI grading in the observation group was lower than that in control group,with a statistical significance (P<0.05).Conclusion Montelukast Sodium combined with interferon aerosol inhalation can help to enhance the immune function and antioxidant capacity,and improve the disease condition,inflammatory status and tissue oxidative damage in school-age children with pneumonia.
