ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the effect of montelukast combined with budesonide in the treatment of children with intermittent asthma, and the impact on airway remodeling and T helper type 1 (Th1)/T helper type 2 (Th1/Th2) related cytokines.Methods:A prospective study was conducted among 120 children with intermittent asthma admitted to Huanghua Municipal People′s Hospital from December 2021 to February 2023. The children were randomly divided into the control group (60 children treated with budesonide atomizationinhalation) and the observation group (60 children treated with montelukast on the basis of the treatment of control group). Clinical efficacy, airway remodeling indicators [total area of airway (Ao), outer diameter of airway (D) and wall area to total airway cross-sectional area (WA%)], pulmonary function [peak expiratory flow (PEF), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV 1)/forced vital capacity (FVC) and the maximum expiratory flow at 25% of vital capacity (MEF25%)], Th1/Th2 related cytokines, inflammatory factors [tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ)], recurrence, and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results:The total effective rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group: 90.00% (54/60) vs. 75.00% (45/60) ( P<0.05). After treatment, Ao, D and WA% in the observation group were lower than those in the control group: (17.58 ± 1.89) mm 2 vs. (19.22 ± 1.94) mm 2, (4.25 ± 0.48) mm vs. (4.48 ± 0.49) mm, (63.75 ± 6.49)% vs. (69.22 ± 7.14)% ( P<0.05). PEF, FEV 1/FVC and MEF25% in the observation group were higher than those in the control group: (3.13 ± 0.34) L/s vs. (2.86 ± 0.35) L/s, (87.45 ± 8.86) % vs. (83.59 ± 8.42) %, (87.63 ± 8.86)% vs. (82.15 ± 8.43)% ( P<0.05). The levels of Th1 and Th1/Th2 in the observation group were higher than those in the control group: (14.13 ± 1.46) % vs. (10.27 ± 1.25) %, 3.46 ± 0.39 vs. 1.88 ± 0.25, and the level of Th2 was lower than that in the control group: (3.96 ± 0.45)% vs. (5.48 ± 0.56)% ( P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of TNF-α and IFN-γ in the observation group were higher than those in the control group: (76.15 ± 7.78) ng/L vs. (66.38 ± 6.47) ng/L, (7.15 ± 0.74) ng/L vs. (6.14 ± 0.66) ng/L. The levels of IL-4 and IL-6 were lower than those in the control group: (77.85 ± 7.96) ng/L vs. (86.42 ± 8.74) ng/L, (37.25 ± 3.89) mg/L vs. (44.23 ± 4.57) mg/L ( P<0.05). The recurrence rate in the observation group was lower than that in the control group: 3.33% (2/60) vs. 15.00% (9/60) ( P<0.05). The incidence rates of adverse reactions in the two groups were without statistically significant difference between the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Montelukast combined with budesonide can reduce airway remodeling in children with intermittent asthma, improve their pulmonary function, Th1/Th2 related cytokines and inflammatory response indicators, and reduce recurrence rate, with good safety.
