Abstract
This study aims to explore the clinical significance of C-reactive protein, leukocyte and immunoglobulin in the diagnosis and treatment of infantile pneumonia at acute stage. From January to December 2018, a total of 124 children with pneumonia and healthy children admitted to our hospital were selected as study objects. Among them, 62 children diagnosed with bacterial pneumonia were categorized as the study group, and 62 healthy children who came for physical examination were classified as the control group. The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cell (WBC) and immunoglobulin (IgA, IgM and IgG) were observed and compared in the two groups. In this study, higher levels of CRP, IgM, IgG and WBC, along with lower level of IgA were observed in the study group as compared with that in the control group. In the study group, the levels of CRP, IgM, IgG and WBC were lower, but the IgA level was higher in children with mild pneumonia than those with severe pneumonia. After treatment, the levels of CRP, IgM, IgG and WBC were decreased but IgA level was increased after treatment compared with before treatment. In particular, the levels of CRP, WBC, IgA, IgM and IgG in the study group after treatment were restored to comparable levels compared with the control group. Therefore, C-reactive protein, leukocyte and immunoglobulin can be used to determine the diagnosis, condition and outcome of children with pneumonia in the acute stage. This study can provide guidance for clinical diagnosis and treatment of infantile pneumonia based

Signa Vitae is a completely open-access,peer-reviewed journal dedicate to deliver the leading edge research in anaesthesia, intensive care and emergency medicine to publics. The journal’s intention is to be practice-oriented, so we focus on the clinical practice and fundamental understanding of adult, pediatric and neonatal intensive care, as well as anesthesia and emergency medicine.
Although Signa Vitae is primarily a clinical journal, we welcome submissions of basic science papers if the authors can demonstrate their clinical relevance. The Signa Vitae journal encourages scientists and academicians all around the world to share their original writings in the form of original research, review, mini-review, systematic review, short communication, case report, letter to the editor, commentary, rapid report, news and views, as well as meeting report.
