Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between the levels of CD4+/CD8+and D-dimer(D-D)in peripheral blood and the outcome of Epstein-Barr virus-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(EBV-HLH).Methods Ninety patients with EBV-HLH who were treated in Beijing Friendship Hospital from September 2021 to August 2023 were included as observation group,and additional 90 patients with infectious mononucleosis(IM)treated in the hospital contemporarily were selected as the control group.The levels of CD4+/CD8+and D-D in peripheral blood were compared between the two groups of patients to examine the correlation between the levels of CD4+/CD8+and D-D in peripheral blood and EBV-DNA load in patients with EBV-HLH,compare the outcome of patients within 3 months in terms of the levels of CD4+/CD8+and D-D in peripheral blood,evaluate the effects of CD4+/CD8+and D-D levels in peripheral blood on the risk of death from EBV-HLH,and analyze the interaction between the levels of CD4+/CD8+and D-D in peripheral blood.Results The patients in observation group showed significantly lower peripheral blood CD4+/CD8+ratio and significantly higher D-D than the patients in control group(P<0.05).The peripheral blood CD4+/CD8+ratio was negatively correlated with EBV-DNA load(P<0.05),and D-D was positively correlated with EBV-DNA load(P<0.05)in EBV-HLH patients.The patients with high peripheral blood CD4+/CD8+ratio were assocaited with lower 3-month mortality rate compared to the patients with low CD4+/CD8+ratio.The patients with high D-D level were associated with higher 3-month mortality rate compared to the patients with low D-D level(P<0.05).In EBV-HLH patients with low levels of peripheral blood CD4+/CD8+,the risk of death was 6.125 times that of the patients with high levels of CD4+/CD8+.High level D-D was associated with 14.348 times risk of death compared to the patients with low level D-D.CD4+/CD8+and D-D had synergistic effect on death of EBV-HLH patients.Conclusions Peripheral blood CD4+/CD8+levels decreased and D-D levels increased in EBV-HLH patients.Peripheral blood CD4+/CD8+levels and D-D levels and their changes may be useful for predicting the outcome of patients.
