Evaluation of treatment of biliary tract dysfunction in children by the activity of the cytokine system

The study presents data on the examination of 100 children aged 7 to 14 years with a disturbance of the motor-evacuation function of the bile excreting system in the hypomotor type (57 children - I clinical group) and hypermotor type (43 children - II clinical group). As a control group, 20 somatically healthy children were examined. It was shown that with hypomotor dyskinesia of the gallbladder, the activity of the cytokine (interleukin) system in the blood plasma was significantly superior to activity in hypermotor dyskinesia. Combined therapy in children’s second clinical group leads to normalization of blood levels of interleukins, whereas the children of the first clinical group stored in elevated blood concentrations of interleukin closure during treatment.
