ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effects of recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) on the serum levels of cytokines in severely burned patients.Methods Thirty-six burn patients were en-rolled in the study and were randomly divided into 3 groups according to the rhGH dosage used,i.e. small(0.3IU?kg -1 ?d -1 ,A),large(0.6IU?kg -1 ?d -1 ,B) dose groups and control group(C,with normalsaline).The rhGH was administered beginning from 3 postburn days(PBDs) and lasted for 20 days.The dynamic changes in the serum levels of TNF-?,IL-6,IL-8 and LPS at different time points were observed.Results When compared with these in C group,the serum levels of TNF-?,IL-6 in A,B groups were decreased,especially in B group with earlier decrease and bigger range(P0.05).Conclusions rhGH might decrease the production of postburn inflammatory mediators.The clinical application of rhGH might be a supplementary measure in preventing and ameliorating postburn SIRS and MODS in severely burned patients.
