Abstract:Objective To analyze the efficacy of Jinhua Qinggan Granules combined with budesonide, salbutamol, and ipratropium bromide triple nebulization inhalation therapy in children with Mycoplasma pneumonia (MPP).Methods A prospective study was conducted on 114 children with MPP admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Changshu City from February 2022 to February 2023. They were divided into a control group and a study group, with 57 cases in each group, according to a random number table. The control group received budesonide, salbutamol, and ipratropium bromide triple nebulization inhalation therapy, while the study group received Jinhua Qinggan Granules in addition to the treatment received by the control group. The treatment lasted for 10 days, and the effects were evaluated. The improvement of symptoms, lung function, clinical efficacy, airway remodeling indicators, inflammatory factors, T lymphocyte subsets, and occurrence of adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups.Results The study group had shorter fever subsidence time, cough disappearance time, and disappearance time of lung rales compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The differences in peak time ratio, peak volume ratio, and respiratory rate between before and after treatment were higher in the study group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The total effective rate in the study group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences in airway wall thickness/outer diameter ratio, airway area/total cross-sectional area ratio before and after treatment were higher in the study group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences in high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha before and after treatment were higher in the study group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The differences in CD4+, CD8+, and CD4+/CD8+ before and after treatment were higher in the study group than in the control group (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of total adverse reactions between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Jinhua Qinggan Granules combined with budesonide, salbutamol, and ipratropium bromide triple nebulization inhalation therapy has significant efficacy in treating children with MPP, improving lung function, resisting airway remodeling, suppressing inflammatory reactions, improving T lymphocyte subsets, and exhibiting good safety.
