SERUM LEVEL OF SOME CYTOKINES IN CHILDREN 6-10 YEARS OLD WITH HIGH FREQUENCY OF ACUTE RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS
Abstract
Objective: improved diagnosis of immune disorders in children aged 6-10 years old, who are often ill od upper respiratory tract infections (URTI), on the basis of these data, further investigation of serum equalities of cytokines, a way of diagnosing with indications in healthy children. Materials and methods. There were 60 children of 6 to 10 years of age, from which 2 groups were formed: 1). children who are often ill with URTI (n=30); 2). children, who do not get sick often URTI (n=30). Results. among children of 6-10 years of age, as often ill with URTI, the frequency of registration of high indications in place of interleukin-6 blood serum (by 53.3%, p<0.05), TNF (by 63.3%, p <0.05) and low indications for interleukin-10 (by 33.3%, p<0.05), it was established that there was a high probability (odds ratio) of an increase serum interleukin-6, TNF and a decrease in interleukin-10 as a reference value, it is associated with the presence of an increased incidence of URTI in children. Conclusion. in children aged 6-10 years, as they often fall ill with URTI, may tend to intensify pro-inflammation of the immune reactions, which still does not ensure a decrease in serious illness on URTI and unsafe side of the development of opportunistic diseases.
