OBJECTIVE:To probe into the efficacy of phlegm-heat concentrated decoction combined with azithromycin in the treatment of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MMP)and its effect on airway inflammation in children.METHODS:Totally 86 children with MPP admitted into Nanjing Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital from Apr.2018 to Mar.2019 were selected and divided into observation group and control group via random number table
with 43 cases in each group.The control group was treated with azithromycin
while the observation group was given phlegm-heat concentrated decoction based on the control group
both groups were treated for 14 days.The clinical efficacy
blood routine index[changes of absolute value of eosinophils(EOS)in peripheral blood]
concentration of exhaled nitric oxide(FeNO)
serum eosinophils cationic protein(ECP)and leukotrienes B

)levels of before and after treatment were observed.RESULTS:The total effective rate of observation group was 95.3%(41/43)
which was significantly higher than that of the control group(81.4%
35/43)
with statistically significant difference(P
<
0.05).The remission times of fever
cough
lung rales and X-ray of observation group were significantly shorter than those of the control group
with statistically significant differences(P
<
0.05).After treatment
the RR values of both group were significantly lower than those of before treatment
while the V

with statistically significant differences(P

the improvements of RR

with statistically significant differences(P

levels of both groups had been significantly decreased;after treatment
the EOS absolute value in peripheral blood

levels of observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group
with statistically significant differences(P
<
0.05).No severe adverse drug reactions occurred in both groups.CONCLUSIONS:The general efficacy of phlegm-heat concentrated decoction combined with azithromycin in the treatment of MPP in children is significant
which can rapidly promote the remission of main clinical manifestation and improve pulmonary function
and may be related to the significant relief of the airway inflammation.
