Objective:To observe the effects of pidotimod combined with ribavirin on inflammatory factors, T lymphocyte subsets, immunoglobulin, lactate, D-dimer and procalcitonin in children with hand-foot-mouth disease.Methods: A total of 108 children with foot-hand-and-mouth epidemic in our hospital from Jan. 2013-Dec. 2016 were divide into the observation group and the control group, each groups has 54 cases. Two groups of children were treated with isolation, the observation group was given pidotimod combined with ribavirin, and the control group was treated with ribavirin. 5 mL venous blood of two group patients were collected at admission and after 6 d treatment, respectively, to compare inflammatory factor, T lymphocyte subsets, immunoglobulin, lactate, D-dimer and procalcitonin in two groups.Results: Before treatment, the levels of inflammatory factor, T lymphocyte subsets, immunoglobulin, lactate, D-dimer and procalcitonin of two groups were not statistically significant. Compared with groups after treatment, the levels of CRP, IL-6, TNF-α were lower than that before treatment, CRP (2.23±0.37) mg/L, IL-6 (21.24±9.81) pg/mL and TNF-α (56.97±50.36) pg/mL levels in observation group after treatment were significantly lower than those in control group, the difference was statistically significant. After treatment, the levels of CD3, CD4, CD4/CD8, IgG, IgA and IgM in control group were significantly higher than that before treatment, the difference was statistically significant; After treatment, the levels of CD3 (51.26±10.27)%, CD4 (36.36±4.09)% and CD4/CD8 (1.60±0.47), IgG (10.24±1.82) mg/L, IgA (1.30±0.31) mg/L and IgM (1.48±0.30) mg/L in observation group were significantly higher than in control group, the difference was statistically significant. After treatment, the levels of lactate, D-dimer and procalcitonin in two groups were significantly lower than that before treatment, the difference was statistically significant; After treatment, the levels of lactate (1.19±0.20) mmol/L, D-dimer (150.23±27.21) ng/mL, and procalcitonin (0.08±0.02) ng/mL in observation group were significantly higher than in control group, the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion: Pidotimod combined with ribavirin has a pronounced effect on children with hand-foot-mouth disease, which can effectively reduce the body's inflammatory response, enhance immune function, improve clinical biochemical indicators, and should be widely recommended for clinical use.
