Résumé: | A study was conducted to evaluate effectiveness of vitamin D and interferon α-2b preparations on cytokine profile in pregnant women with vaginal infections. It was shown that pregnant women with vs. without bacterial vaginosis were featured with low vitamin D level in 53.8–60.5% cases. Administration of vitamin D and interferon α-2b preparations in combination with antibacterial therapy in pregnant women with bacterial vaginosis conferred anti-inflammatory effect resulting in normalized IL-8 level corresponding to that one in healthy subjects. Use of vitamin D altered interferon status and augmented antimicrobial activity in pregnant women confirmed by reduced rate of ARI episodes. |
