Objective To investigate the value of cortisol(Co)
triidothyronine(T3)
interleukin-1β(IL-1β)
and insulin-like growth factor-Ⅱ(IGF-Ⅱ)changes in nutritional assessment of children with pneumonia.Methods Forty-five children with pneumonia treated at a Guangzhou hospital from January to December
2015 were compared with another 45 healthy children who received health checkup at the same hospital during the same time period(control group).Blood samples were collected in both groups
and then the Co
T
3
IL-1β
and IGF-Ⅱ levels were measured and compared.Results The pre-treatment level of Co in the pneumonia group was significantly higher than that in the control group(343.85±80.98)ng/mL vs.(266.07±102.49)ng/mL
while the pre-treatment level of T
3
was significantly lower compared with the control group(3.21±1.70)nmol/L vs.(7.43±1.29)nmol/L(both P
<
0.05).In the pneumonia group
the post-treatment level of T
3
was significantly higher than its pre-treatment level(5.77±0.74)nmol/L vs.(3.21±1.70)nmol/L
while the post-treatment level of Co was significantly lower than its pre-treatment level(189.43±109.01)ng/mL vs.(343.85±80.98)ng/mL(both P
<
0.05).The pre-treatment level of IL-1βin the pneumonia group was significantly higher than that in the control group(0.34±0.13)ng/mL vs.(0.20±0.04)ng/mL
whereas the pre-treatment level of IGF-Ⅱ was significantly lower compared with the control group(0.34±0.07)ng/mL vs.(0.62±0.17)ng/mL(both P
<
0.05).In the pneumonia group
the post-treatment level of IL-1βwas significantly lower than its pre-treatment level(0.22±0.03)ng/mL vs.(0.34±0.13)ng/mL
while the post-treatment level of IGF-Ⅱ was significantly higher than its pre-treatment level(0.56±0.16)ng/mL vs.(0.34±0.07)ng/mL(both P
<
0.05).Conclusion Children with pneumonia often have varying degrees of malnutrition
which may be associated with disturbances in hormone synthesis and cytokine secretion.After proper clinical treatment
the hormone and cytokine levels are found to be improved
indicating an improved nutritional status of these children.
