Abstract:
Obgective To investigate the clinical effect of Adenine arabinoside monophosphate (Ara-A) on the treatment of infant cytomegalovirus hepatitis.Methods One hundred cases of infants with cytomegalovirus hepatitis in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2012 to October 2013 were included and divided into 2 groups:Am-A group treated with Ara-A [a course of treatment lasting for 2 months included 10 mg/(kg · d) for first 2 weeks followed by 2 weeks' interval,and then resumed],and then control group was given ganciclovir [10 mg/(kg · d) for 14 days and 5 mg/(kg · d) for 1 week after 1 week's interval,for a total treatment period of 1.5 to 2.0 months].Both groups were given conventional therapy.Both before and after treatment,liver function,time of jaundice and transaminase back to normal,quantification of viral DNA returns to negative,side effects,hospitalization time and cost were also compared.Results After 2 weeks,alanine aminotramferase(ALT) in Ara-A group was significantly lower than that of the control group,and there was significant difference (P ＜0.05).After 2 months,ALT,aspartate transaminase in Ara-A group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P ＜ 0.05).Time of transaminase back to normal [(38.5 ± 16.7) d] was significantly reduced compared with the control group [(44.3 ±22.9) d] (F =3.845,P ＜ 0.05).Time of jaundice back to normal [(27.1 ± 10.5) d],quantification of viral DNA back to negative [(39.5 ±24.0) d],hospitalization time [(22.6 ±5.8) d] and costs [(10 521.9 ±2 662.3) yuan] in Ara-A group had no significant difference compared with those of the control group (F =1.111,2.837,0.840,2.223,all P ＞ 0.05).The negative rate of viral DNA quantification in Ara-A group (80.9％) was higher than that of the control group (62.1％),and the liver injury rate (7.1％) was lower than that of the control group (15.5％),and the difference was statistically significant (x2 =9.137,11.514,all P ＜ 0.05).Condusion Ara-A is safe and effective for infant cytomegalovirus hepatitis and it is suitable for the clinical practice.
