Insuficiencia respiratoria progresiva secundaria a fibrosis pulmonar en una escolar: Caso clínico

Abstract: Interstitial lung diseases are uncommon in children, and can be idiopathic or secondary to known causes, sharing common pathological findings. We report a girl with progressive respiratory insufficiency secondary to interstitial pneumonia and pulmonary fibrosis, with risk factors such as bronchopulmonary dysplasia and respiratory infections (respiratory syncytial virus and suspected Mycoplasma pneumoniae), that may have had an additive effect. Nasal bi-level Positive Airway Pressure was used in the last period… Show more

“…This is further demonstrated by the alleviation of respiratory symptoms and improvement in pulmonary function after the use of macrolides to treat MP infection . The symptoms of pneumonia caused by MP are correlated with the upregulated expression of proinflammatory cytokines and induction of pulmonary fibrosis . In this study, the expression levels of the inflammation factors IL‐6, IL‐1β, TNF‐α, and MCP‐1 were increased in mouse serum after MP infection, while PD treatment suppressed these trends, suggesting that PD has conveyed anti‐inflammation effects, as reported in previous studies .…”

“…25 The symptoms of pneumonia caused by MP are correlated with the upregulated expression of proinflammatory cytokines 26 and induction of pulmonary fibrosis. 10,27 In this study, the expression levels of the inflammation factors IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and MCP-1 were increased in mouse serum after MP infection, while PD treatment suppressed these trends, suggesting that PD has conveyed anti-inflammation effects, as reported in previous studies. 28,29 Meanwhile, PD treatment also suppressed pulmonary injury by suppressing MPP-induced apoptosis and pulmonary fibrosis.…”
