Abstract

To investigate the effects of treatment with immunoglobulin on clinical outcomes and immune function in children with oculomotor myasthenia gravis. The clinical data of 100 pediatric patients with oculomotor myasthenia gravis treated in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were selected as the subjects of this retrospective study and divided into a comparison group and a treatment group according to the different treatment methods. The comparison group was treated with glucocorticoids, and the treatment group was treated with immunoglobulin on the basis of the comparison group. The differences in the serum indexes, the effects of immune function, and the clinical efficacy of the two groups were observed and compared. It was found the comparison of immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin A (IgA), and immunoglobulin M (IgM) after treatment was significantly different and lower in the treatment group than in the comparison group; the comparison of CD4+, CD3+, CD4+/CD8+, and NK cells after treatment was significantly different and higher in the treatment group than in the comparison group. The effective rate of 98.00% in the treatment group was significantly higher than that of 76.00% in the comparison group, and the difference was statistically significant. The clinical efficacy of the two groups showed that the fever, cough, sputum, myasthenia gravis crisis, and gastrointestinal reactions in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the comparison group. The study indicates that comparative study of children with oculomotor myasthenia gravis treated with immunoglobulin combined with glucocorticoids is more effective, effectively improving the immune level of patients and reducing adverse reactions.
