ABSTRACT
Background: Recurrent respiratory infections (RRIs) are common in children especially in age 1 to 6 years. Pidotimod, an immunostimulant has been found to lower the recurrences of RRIs and improve the quality of life. The Objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of pidotimod in children with recurrent respiratory infections (RRIs).Methods: In this single-centre, prospective, observational study, children aged 2 to 15 years diagnosed with RRIs were included. RRIs were defined as occurrence of 3 or more episodes of acute respiratory infections (ARIs) or more than 15 days of respiratory symptoms in the past 3 months. These children were treated with pidotimod in addition to standard care treatment. Treatment duration was two months and the follow-up continued for three months. Number of RRIs and severity of RRIs, antibiotic courses and rate of hospitalization before and after treatment were compared.Results: In total 25 children included in the study, mean age was 7.34'3.63 years. Among them, 68% were males. After treatment with pidotimod, there was significant reduction in mean number of ARI episodes (3.84'0.85 at baseline to 0.48'0.51 at follow-up, p<0.0001). Also, there was significant reduction in the duration of acute infectious episodes (p<0.0001), need of antibiotic courses (p<0.0001) and rates of hospitalization (p<0.0001). No safety concerns were identified and pidotimod was well tolerated.Conclusions: Addition of pidotimod to the standard treatment in children with RRIs significantly reduces the recurrence, duration of repeat infectious episodes, need of antibiotic treatments and future rates of hospitalizations. These findings support previous data.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of pidotimod combined with antibacterials on the immunologic functions and clinical curative efficacy for patients undergoing recurrent respiratory tract infections.Methods Patients with recurrent respiratory tract infections (150 cases) were enrolled in Matemal and Child Health Hospital of Guangyuan from August 2013 to January 2016,which divided to two groups randomly,Group A (n =75) accepted traditional antibacterials treatment,and Group B (n =75) adopted pidotimod combined with antibacterials.The clinical symptom and immunologic functions of patients during treatment were tested,and the clinical curative efficacy of patients was evaluated in the follow-up period.Results After treatment,the disappear time of cough,fever,tonsil inflammation and pulmonary wheezing in treatment group was significantly shorter than that of control group (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,the levels of serum immunoglobulin in two groups were higher than those before treatment (P ＜ 0.05),and the treatment group was significantly higher than control group (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,the relative activities of CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,and NK cells in two groups increased significantly (P ＜ 0.05),the relative content of CD4+/CD8+ was also increased (P ＜0.05),and the improvement of above indexes in the treatment group was more obvious than those in control group (P ＜ 0.05).After treatment,total effective rate of treatment group was significantly higher than that of control group (P ＜ 0.05),the recurrence of infection in the treatment group is significantly lower than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05),and the recurrence duration was significantly shorter than control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The clinical curative of pidotimod combined with antibacterials was remarkable for patients of recurrent respiratory tract infections,which deserved popularization not only improving the immunologic functions,but also decreasing the times of recurrence.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical effects of pidotimod in the bronchial asthma complicated with recurrent re-spiratory tract infection,and its effects on immunoglobulin and related indexes. METHODS:A total of 120 bronchial asthma pa-tients with recurrent respiratory tract infection selected from our hospital during Mar. 2011-May 2013 were divided into trial group and control group according to random number table,with 60 cases in each group.
