摘要

Objective

To evaluate the clinical efficacy and immunomodulatory effects of bacterial lysate (OM-85) in children with allergic rhinitis (AR).

Method

A total of 40 children aged 5 to 14 years with AR were selected and divided into two groups: the control group (treated with mometasone furoate nasal spray and cetirizine) and the observation group (treated with the same regimen as the control group, plus OM-85). The changes in Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ) scores, lymphocyte subsets, and serum immunoglobulin levels were compared before and after treatment between the two groups.

Results

After treatment, both groups showed a significant reduction in the frequency of allergic rhinitis episodes (P < 0.05). The RQLQ scores indicated that the observation group showed more significant improvements in daily activities, rhinitis-related behaviors, nasal symptoms, emotional responses, and overall score (P < 0.05), while the control group showed improvements in only some of the indicators (P < 0.05). In the observation group, NK cell levels (6.28% [3.46; 8.55] vs. 7.80% [5.90; 13.87], P = 0.025), Treg cell levels (0.83 ± 0.50% vs. 1.20 ± 0.47%, P = 0.016), serum IgA (0.97 ± 0.34 vs. 1.49 ± 0.58 g/L, P = 0.001), and IgG levels (9.32 ± 2.85 vs. 11.11 ± 2.09 g/L, P = 0.019) were significantly increased, while CD8 + T cell levels decreased (28.84 ± 5.24% vs. 25.62 ± 5.85%, P = 0.037). No significant changes in immune parameters were observed in the control group (P > 0.05).

Conclusion

OM-85 adjunctive therapy can enhance immune function, improve clinical symptoms, and enhance quality of life in children with allergic rhinitis.
