Abstract:Objective: To explore the effects of long-term prophylactic dose of Staphylococcus and Neisseria Tablets on immune function and life quality in patients with moderately severe COPD patients. Methods: Sixty patients with moderately severe COPD admitted to People’s Hospital of Quzhou between January 2016 to January 2017 were randomly divided into treatment group (n=30) and basic group (n=30). The treatment group was prescribed with Staphylococcus and Neisseria Tablets (two tablets twice daily, oral) for 3 months on the basis of routine treatment, while the basic group was given routine treatment only. After 3 months of treatment, analysis was made to compare the immune function and the life quality of these groups. The number of exacerbations was counted before and after treatment for 1 year. Meanwhile, 30 healthy people who came to our hospital for physical checkup in the same period were selected as healthy controls. Results: Compared with the control group, both the treatment group and the basic group had decreased levels of COPD CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, NK cells, B cells, IgG, lgA, lgM, and increased levels of CD8+, HAD (P<0.05). The immune indices of the treatment group and the basic group did not show any significant difference (P>0.05). Patients in the treatment group did not report any obvious discomfort during the course of treatment. After the treatment, CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, NK cells, B cells, IgG, lgA, FEV1 had increased, while CD8+, CAT, mMRC, HAD and the number of exacerbationshad decreased significantly (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the level of IgM before and after treatment (P>0.05). Compared with the basic group, the frequency of upper respiratory tract infection and duration of the symptoms were significantly less in the treatment group (P<0.05). No obvious changes had been found in the indices of the basic group before and after treatment (P>0.05). Conclusion: The body’s immune function had declined in patients with moderately severe COPD. Long-term prophylactic dose of Staphylococcus and Neisseria Tablets was safe and effective, which can enhance the body’s immune function, reduce respiratory symptoms and improve life quality of the patients with moderately severe COPD.
