摘要
背景:为了证明补充维生素C是否对预防儿童复发性呼吸道感染(RTIs)有有益作用。此外,我们评估了主要的危险因素,易导致这种疾病的发展。方法60名儿童被纳入研究,随机分为两组:对照组(G1 n = 33)和RTIs复发危险组(G2 n = 27)。G2组每天给予含维生素C 70 mg的100%橙汁。结果G2组RTIs发生率显著降低(治疗前182 ~ 6.75次/例,治疗后71 ~ 2.62次/例,P <0.05)。结论在本组复发性呼吸道感染患儿中给予维生素C治疗有良好效果,可减少感染发作次数。
Beneficial therapeutic effects of vitamin C on recurrent respiratory tract infections in children: preliminary data.
BACKGROUND
To demonstrate whether supplementation of vitamin C has a beneficial effect in the prevention of recurrent respiratory tract infections (RTIs) in children. Moreover, we evaluate the main risk factors that predispose to the development of this disease.
METHODS
Sixty children have been enrolled in the study and randomized into two groups: the control group (G1 n = 33) and the group at risk of recurrent RTIs (G2 n = 27). To G2 group was administered every day 100% orange juice with the content of vitamin C 70 mg.
RESULTS
Significant reduction in the incidence rate of RTIs (episodes pre-treatment: 182-6.75 episodes/child, after-treatment: 71-2.62 episodes/child, P <0.05), were observed in G2 group.
CONCLUSIONS
The administration of vitamin C had a beneficial effect in our group of children with recurrent RTIs, reducing the number of infective episodes.
