Autoimmune Diseases Research Center, Kashan University of Medical Sciences, Kashan, Iran.
Background: Nephrotic syndrome is an immune-mediated renal disorder characterized by T-cell and B-cell dysfunctions with changes in immunoglobulin (Ig) levels and the IgG:IgM ratio. Therefore, this study aimed to determine whether the serum level of Igs can be considered as an index to predict the response to treatment and the prognosis of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS) in children in the remission phase.
Methods: The study population consisted of 38 children with INS in the remission phase and 38 age- and sex-matched healthy children.

This study was a retrospective analysis in which 110 children with chronic cough caused by MP infection were divided into two groups based on different treatment methods: 58 cases in the control group treated with azithromycin dry suspension and 52 cases in the intervention group treated with azithromycin dry suspension and fluticasone propionate inhalation aerosol. Lung function, inflammatory factors, immune indicators, laboratory-related indicators, adverse reactions, and therapeutic effects were compared between the two groups.
