Abstract

Trend and correlation of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in serum of children with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) were investigated. A total of 75 NRDS children born in the Xiangyang Central Hospital from July 2015 to August 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 45 NRDS premature infants who received pulmonary surfactant (PS) within 12 h after birth were treated as PS group, 30 who did not receive PS treatment as non-PS group, and 32 premature infants without NRDS in the same period were selected as control group. Serum levels of TGF-β1 and IL-6 were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at various time points after birth and their correlation was analyzed. The expression level of TGF-β1 in serum of children in PS group was significantly higher than that in control group on days 1 and 3 after birth (P<0.05). The expression level of TGF-β1 in non-PS group increased continuously with the increase of number of days and was significantly higher than that in control group on days 1, 3 and 7 after birth (P<0.05), and significantly higher than that in PS group on days 3 and 7 after birth (P<0.05). The analysis of the correlation between the severity of the disease and the expression levels of TGF-β1 and IL-6 showed that the expression levels were elevated with the increase of the disease severity. The expression levels of TGF-β1 and IL-6 were positively correlated with severity of the disease (r=0.7509, P<0.05; r=0.8056, P<0.05). The expression levels of TGF-β1 and IL-6 in PS and non-PS groups were positively correlated (r=0.9042, P<0.05; r=0.8905, P<0.05). The results showed that serum TGF-β1 and IL-6 were elevated in NRDS children, and there was a positive correlation between them.
