Efficacy of allylestrenol combined with ritodrine on threatened premature labor and its influence on inflammatory factors in peripheral blood

Efficacy of allylestrenol combined with ritodrine on threatened premature labor (TPTL) and its influence on inflammatory factors in peripheral blood were investigated. A total of 206 cases of TPTL patients from 2014 to 2016 were collected in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, and 106 cases were treated with allylestrenol combined with ritodrine as a research group and 100 cases were treated with allylestrenol combined with magnesium sulfate as a control group. General information of patients was collected, and changes in the expression levels of IL-17, IL-10 and IL-6 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Prolonged pregnancy time, success rate of fetal protection and average delivery time of patients were recorded. The adverse pregnancy conditions were compared, including the Apgar score of newborns, birth weight and adverse conditions, and postpartum hemorrhage volume and postpartum hospital stays in the two groups were recorded. Prolonged pregnancy time, success rate of fetal protection and average delivery time in the research group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of IL-17, IL-10 and IL-6 in serum of the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment (P<0.05), and were significantly lower in the research group than in the control group (P<0.05). The average neonatal weight and Apgar score in the research group were significantly better than those in the control group (P<0.05). Postpartum hemorrhage, postpartum hospital stays and incidence rate of toxic side effects, neonatal death, malformation and asphyxia in the research group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). Allylestrenol combined with ritodrine can significantly reduce the expression levels of IL-17, IL-10 and IL-6 in TPTL, reduce adverse pregnancy conditions, prolong gestational weeks, and has higher safety and better application value.
