ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the possible anti-inflammatory mechanism of intensive insulin therapy (IIT) by studying the effect of IIT on the levels of TNF-?,IL-6,C-reactive protein (CRP) and APACHE Ⅱ score in biliary pyemia.Methods Twenty eight patients with biliary pyemia who were admitted by our department and given an operation within 24 h form Jan.2005 to Dec.2008 were randomly divided into two groups by using random number table numbers:one group treated with IIT (IIT group,n=14) and another group treated with routine insulin therapy (RIT group,n=14).The inflammatory factors,such as TNF-?,IL-6 and CRP were detected dynamically and the APACHEⅡ score was calculated.Results The level of CRP and APACHEⅡ score on day 5 and 7 and the levels of TNF-? and IL-6 on day 3,5 and 7 after operation in IIT group were significantly lower than those in RIT group (P
