The role of Immunomodulation on immune function and prognosis in sepsis / 中国普通外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effect of immunomodulation on improvement of immune function and prognosis in sepsis in rats,and its mechanism.Methods Experimental part: cecal ligation-perforation(CLP) models were divided into three groups including sham group(n=20),control group(n=20) and experimental group(n=20).Control group only used antibiotic and experimental group used antibiotic plus immunomodulation.Blood collections were made after CLP model at 3,12,48 and 72hr.Lymphocyte counting,CD4+,CD8+ T lymphocyte and CD4/CD8 ratio were checked.The apoptosis of lymphocyte in thymus and spleen and survival rate were checked.Clinical part: Prospective analysis of seventy patients who conformed to the sepsis standard.They were divided into two groups randomly.One was control group with regular therapy,and the therapy group with ulinastatin plus thymosin-?1 for 7days.The immune index before and after therapy at 0,1d,3d,and 7d was observed,including the clinical changes and survival data.Results Experimental part: Lymphocytes,CD4+ T lymphocytes and CD4/CD8 ratio in experimental group increased more significantly than in control group(P
