Abstract
Objective
To investigate the effect of montelukast sodium tablets combined with pulmicort aerosol in the treatment of children with asthma, and its influence on eosinophil (EOS), interleukin-4 (IL-4), immunoglobulin E (IgE), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α).
Methods
From March 2018 to March 2019, 142 children with asthma admitted to Hangzhou Dajiangdong Hospita were randomly divided into observation group (71 cases) and control group (71 cases) according to the digital table.The patients in the observation group were treated with montelukast sodium tablets combined with pulmicort aerosol, while patients in the control group were treated with pulmicort aerosol.Both two groups were treated for 2 weeks.The levels of EOS, IL-4, IgE and TNF-α, day and night asthma symptom scores and blood gas analysis indicators before and after treatment were compared between the two groups.
Results
The total effective rate of the observation group (91.55%) was higher than that of the control group (74.65%) (χ2=7.220, P<0.05). After treatment, the scores of asthma symptoms in day[(0.38±0.12)points] and night[(0.42±0.14)points] in the observation group were lower than those in the control group[(0.87±0.19)points and (0.93±0.25)ponts](t=18.373, 14.998, all P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of EOS[(0.38±0.09)×109/L], IL-4[(13.89±3.25)ng/L], IgE[(109.35±16.57)kU/L] and TNF-α[(1.25±0.12)ng/L] in the observation group were lower than those in the control group[(0.73±0.13)×109/L, (18.36±2.70)ng/L, (164.53±23.51)kU/L and (1.49±0.15)ng/L](t=18.652, 8.914, 16.165, 10.528, all P<0.05).
Conclusion
Montelukast sodium tablets combined with pulmicort aerosol is effective in the treatment of children with asthma.It can reduce the levels of EOS, IL-4, IgE and TNF-α, alleviate the symptoms of daytime and night asthma.
