Abstract:
Objective To analyze the clinical features of severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS) in order to look for premonitory signs of deterioration of patients suffering from SARS. Methods Three hundred and thirty patients with SARS referred to the Chinese Disease Center(CDC) in Beijing were studied retrospectively by SPASS and SDAS software. The data reviewed included clinical manifestations, laboratory findings, and X-ray pictures. Results The prognosis of mild SARS was good with a cure ratio of 100%. Chest radiography revealed opacity or small subtle opacity in lung periphery in 53.1%, there were no signs of acute lung injury in 67.2%, and the opacity disappeared rapidly. In patients with severe SARS, the disease course was longer(41.3?5.6day), the duration of high fever was longer (8.66?3.22day), with the highest temperature reaching 39.04?0.71℃. The duration of respiratory insufficiency was also longer(8.80?4.56day), and 71.8% of them manifested acute lung injury, involving a large area of the lung, with central lesions in 21.8% or mixed in 50%. The opacity was denser, and it took a longer period to resolve. The levels of LDH, HBDH, ESR and CK-MB were high, with HBDH/LDH ratio ranged from 0.8 to 1.0. The mortality was high(14.54%). Logistic regression analysis showed that the premonitory mode of deterioration of the disease was P y=1=? s /(1+? s)(S=-10.598+0.102A+0.592B+0.077C+0.494D), with sensitivity of 86.67%, and specificity 80%, and it was correlated with age, duration of respiratory insufficiency, ESR, and duration of high temperature. Conclusions The premonitory mode of deterioration of SARS is a new, simple, low-cost, biomathematically and pathophysiogically based index. It allows the prediction of deterioration and severity of SARS.
