Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of montmorillonite and vitamin AD combined with zinc preparation in children with diarrheal disease and its effect on inflammatory factors. METHODS: A total of 156 children with diarrheal diseases admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to January 2020 were enrolled and divided into two groups (n=78 for each) using random number table. The control group (CG) was treated with montmorillonite, and the observation group (OG) was additionally treated with vitamin AD and zinc. Both groups completed 7 d of treatment and 3 months of follow-up to compare the efficacy rate, time to onset of symptom relief, inflammatory factor levels, T-lymphocyte levels, adverse drug reactions, and relapse rate. RESULTS: The efficacy rate of 7 d treatment in the OG was 94.87%, higher than that of 56.41% in the CG (P < 0.05). After intervention, the OG had normal frequency of defecation, shorter time for stool to return to normal appearance, shorter duration of antiemetic, antipyretic, antidiarrheal treatment and shorter hospital stay than those of the CG (P < 0.05). The OG exhibited lower levels of CRP, TNF-α, NO, and PCT and higher levels of SOD than the CG (P < 0.05). The OG had lower levels CD3+ and CD4+ at 7 d after treatment, lower CD8+ levels and higher CD4+/CD8+ levels than the CG (P < 0.05). The relapse rate at 6 months after treatment in the OG was lower than that in the CG (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The combination of montmorillonite, vitamin AD and zinc preparation can achieve higher short-time efficacy, shorten the time of disappearance of symptoms, reduce the level of inflammatory factors, and improve the level of T-lymphocytes, without increasing the incidence of adverse drug reactions.
