Abstract:Abstract: Objective To investigate the triamcinolone acetonide acetate and econazole nitrate cream plus lupatadine Fumarate in the treatment of moderate acute hand eczema (HE). Methods A total of 110 patients with moderate acute HE were randomly treated with triamcinolone acetonide acetate and econazole nitrate cream (control group) or triamcinolone acetonide acetate and econazole nitrate cream plus lupatadine fumarate (observation group) for 14 days. Curative effect, degree of itching, and quality of life were determined by Eczema area and severity index, Visual Analogue Score (VAS), dermatology life quality index (DLQI) scoring table. The levels of Th1 cells (IL-2, TNF-α) and Th2 cells (IL-4, IL-5) in two groups were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. Results Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significantly higher concentrations of IL-2 and TNF-α after 14 days of treatment, while the concentrations of IL-4 and IL-5 were significantly lower (P<0.01 or 0.05). The VAS score and DLQI score of the observation group after 14 days of treatment were significantly lower than those of the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion The treatment of moderate acute HE with triamcinolone acetonide acetate and econazole nitrate cream plus lupatadine fumarate can correct the imbalance of Th1/ Th2 cell subpopulation differentiation, reduce itching severity, and improve patient quality of life.
