Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the immunological characteristics of the patients with aplastic anemia (AA) and elevated hemogram parameters treated with Yiqi Yangxue prescription combined with Western medicine and the predictive effects of immunological indexes on elevated hemogram parameters, thus providing a reference for the prediction of the treatment efficacy and the adjustment of the treatment regimen. MethodA retrospective study was conducted, involving 77 AA patients treated with Yiqi Yangxue prescription combined with Western medicine for 6 months in 19 medical institutions including Xiyuan Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences from September 2018 to March 2021. The patients were assigned into two groups according to the elevations in hemogram parameters [including hemoglobin (HGB), white blood cell count (WBC), platelet (PLT), and absolute neutrophil count (ANC)] after 6 months of treatment. One group had the elevation <50%, and the other group had the elevation ≥50% compared with the baseline. The clinical and immunological characteristics were compared between the two groups. Result① Compared with the group with HGB elevation<50%, the group with HGB elevation≥50% showed elevated level of CD3+ human leukocyte antigen-DR (HLA-DR)+ and increased proportion of patients with T-helper cell type 2 (Th2)<5%, CD8+≥50%, and CD3+HLA-DR+≥9% before treatment (P<0.05, P<0.01). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CD8+≥50% before treatment was the independent influencing factor for HGB elevation ≥50% [odds ratio (OR)=12.000, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.218, 64.928, P<0.01]. ② Compared with the group with WBC elevation<50%, the group with WBC elevation≥50% showed increased proportion of patients with CD3+HLA-DR+<6% and T-box transcription factor (T-bet)≥200% before treatment (P<0.05). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CD3+HLA-DR+<6% (OR=2.998, 95%CI 1.036, 8.680, P<0.05) and T-bet≥200% (OR=3.634, 95%CI 1.076, 12.273, P<0.05) before treatment were independent influencing factors for WBC elevation≥50%. ③ Compared with the group with PLT elevation<50%, the group with PLT elevation≥50% presented lowered Th1 and CD3+HLA-DR+ levels and increased proportion of patients with Th1<12%, CD4+≥6%, and CD3+HLA-DR+<5% before treatment (P<0.05, P<0.01). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that CD3+HLA-DR+<5% before treatment was the independent influencing factor for PLT elevation≥50% (OR=16.190, 95%CI of 3.430 to 76.434, P<0.01). ④ Compared with the group with ANC elevation<50%, the group with ANC elevation≥50% showed no significant changes in the hemogram parameters before treatment. ConclusionAs for the AA patients with rapid elevation in HGB, Yiqi Yangxue prescription combined with Western medicine demonstrate significant effects in the patients with Th2<5% and CD3+HLA-DR+≥9%, especially those with CD8+≥50%. As for the AA patients with rapid elevation in WBC, the therapy was particularly effective in the patients with CD3+HLA-DR+<6% and T-bet≥200%. As for the AA patients with rapid growth in PLT, the therapy was particularly effective in the patients with Th1<12% and CD4+≥6%, especially those with CD3+HLA-DR+<5%.
