热性惊厥患儿血清褪黑素水平和细胞免疫功能的变化及其临床意义

Objective To investigate the changes of melatonin and cellular immunological function in children with febrile seizures and its clinical significance. Methods 50 children, including 23 cases with complex febrile seizure (CFS) and 27 cases with simple febrile seizure (SFS) , and 25 cases with upper respiratory infections children selected as control group were enrolled in this study. Serum melato- nin was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and cellular immunological function was measured by flow eytomcter. Results The levels of serum melatonin in the 3 groups of CFS, SFS, control were(14. 91±2. 61) ng/L, (20. 72±2. 54) ng/L, (23.93± 2. Ol) ng/L, respectively. The melatonin levels in CFS children were significantly decreased than that in control group and SFS children (P <0. O1). CD3 + ,CD4 +, the ratio of CD4 + /CD8 + and CD8 + in CFS group were significantly decreased than that in control group and SFS group (P <0.01). The ratio of CD4 +/CD8 + in SFS group was significantly decreased than that in control group (P <0.05), but CD3 + ,CD4 + and CD8 + had no statistics significance among these groups(P >0. 05). The serum rnelatonin level were positive related withdecreaseddegreeofCD3+,CD4+ andtberatioofCD4+ /CDS+ (r≥0. 472, P <0.05). Conclusion The disorder cfcellular immunological function was possible related with the loss of serum melatonin, and the loss of serum melatonin maybe one of the reasons for febrile seizures relapse and brain injured.
