The cohort of patients with chronic prostatitis (CP) is diverse. Metabolic syndrome (MS) has a negative impact on the sexual function of men.
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effectiveness of immunomodulatory therapy in the complex treatment of patients with CP with comorbidity of MS.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
An open, prospective, comparative, randomized, single-center study included 214 men meeting criteria for MS. Patients completed the Russian-language version of the symptom scale on their own CP (NIH-CPSI). CP was diagnosed in 148 (69.2%) men. All underwent a standard clinical and laboratory study, microbiological examination of the secretion of the prostate, performed a spermogram. The diagnosis of MS was established according to international consensus recommendations. Excluded from the study were 23 (15.5%) patients with prostate secretions no pathogenic agent has been identified. Patients with bacterial CP (n=125) were randomized into 2 groups: the main group (MG) - 36 patients and the comparison group (GC) - 89 patients. Basic etiopathogenetic therapy in both groups was identical; patients with MG additionally received intravenous bolus Panavir according to the following scheme: the first three injections after 24 hours, then two more with an interval of 48 hours.
RESULTS
CP was diagnosed in 148 (69.2%) of 214 patients with MS. In 23 (15.5%) pathogenic microflora was not found, and in 125 (84.5%) confirmed the bacterial nature of CP. In patients with MG, the effectiveness of CP treatment is statistically significantly higher. In addition, a pronounced positive dynamics of lipid metabolism indicators was found. Analysis long-term results demonstrated a prolonged effect of Panavir against both CP and MS. In patients with OH, a significant improvement was achieved in almost all parameters of the spermogram.
CONCLUSIONS
The use of Panavir in the complex of etiopathogenetic therapy of patients with chronic bacterial prostatitis in combination with metabolic syndrome statistically significantly improves the results of treatment of chronic prostatitis, indicators of lipid metabolism, increases the fertility of the ejaculate. There were no adverse reactions to the drug. Should include Panavir in the standard of therapy for patients with chronic bacterial prostatitis.
