Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and prevalent features of an influenza erupting prevalence.Methods All of 653 patients with an erupting influenza were enrolled in the study from May 29,2003 to July 3,2003. The data included clinic manifestations and etiology. The retrospective study was used to evaluate the clinical and prevalent features. Results All patients consisted of 392 boys and 261 girls aged 5~17 years(mean 11.5 years),who were all students in middle school or primary school. Most of the patients had no typical symptoms including chill(2.45%),headache(30.00%),tiredness(10.87%)and the aching in whole body(4.44%),whereas fever,faucial inflammation and lymphatic follicular hyperplasia of the faucial posterior wall were the most common among these patients,accounting for 100%,60.03%,64.78% respectively. There were 98 patients whose peripheral leukocyte amounts were increased,most happening on the 6 ~7 th day from the onset(75.51%)following the fever on the 5~6 th day(80.6%). Detection of serum double virus-antigen indicated that influenza virus antibody increased more than 4-fold,as well as parainfluenza virus and adenovirus. Even in minority patients,there were several kinds of virus antibody raised 4-fold at the same time. We applied antivirus allopathy associated with the Chinese traditional medicine such as injection of shuanghuanglian or yuxingcao,plus the effectual antibiotics when necessary . All of the patients were cured and no sequelae. Conclusion Sometimes the influenza is prevalent only in some special crowds and has no typical symptoms such as chill,headache,tiredness and the aching in whole body.The antibiotics should be used in time after the synthetic treatment has no effect,when the patient has the onset for more than 5 days and has the fever for more than 4 days.
