- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method In this work, we aimed to assess microparticle profiles, inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokine profiles in pediatric patients with CAP. Also, we aimed to assess the effect of the use of wheat bran retention enema on microparticle profile and inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokine profile in CAP to investigate the role of wheat bran as adjuvant therapy in the management of pediatric patients with CAP.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To the best of our knowledge, there is no current research addressing the role of wheat bran enema as adjuvant therapy in pediatric patients with CAP. In order to investigate the effect of wheat bran enema, we analyzed clinical, imaging and laboratory data regarding inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokine profiles in patients with CAP.
