Abstract:
Objective To study the relationship between different syndromes of AIDS dementia complex (ADC) and different disease severity, age, CD4+ T cell count and infection. Methods Totally 186 patients with ADC were classified into different syndrome types, and the distribution in different degree of disease, different age, different CD4+T cell count and different routes of infection was analyzed. Results There were 48, 51, 15, 37 and 35 cases of deficiency of kidney and marrow, yin deficiency of liver and kidney, deficiency of heart and spleen, syndrome of phlegm obstruction, syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis, respectively. Moderate and severe degrees with yin deficiency of liver and kidney were more common. There was statistical significance in the distribution of different syndromes in different degree of disease (χ2=82.495, P=0.000). Deficiency of kidney and marrow, yin deficiency of liver and kidney were more common in different age groups. The distribution of the syndrome types in different age groups was statistically significant (χ2=72.710, P=0.000), the patients were mainly in two age groups of>50–60 years old and>60 years old. The distribution of the syndrom types in diffenrent CD4+T cell count stratum was statistically significant (χ2=66.778, P=0.000). Blood pathway infection mainly included deficiency of kidney and marrow and syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis, sexual pathogens mainly yin deficiency of liver and kidney. Conclusion CD4+T cells layers, age group, progression of disease and transmission way are the influencing factors of syndrom type.
