Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of leukotriene B4(LTB4)and leukotriene E4(LTFA)in early diagnosis of renal involvement in children with Henoch Schonlein purpura(HSPN)and its influence on prognosis.Methods A total of 185 children with HSPN were enrolled in our hospital from January 2014 to October 2016.A total of 50 healthy children were selected as control group at the same period.The serum levels of LTB4 and LTFA in all subjects were detected,and their value in early diagnosis of HSPN and its influence on prognosis were analyzed.Results Compared with the control group,the serum levels of LTB4 and LT-FA in children with HSPN were significantly higher(P<0.05),the contents were 987.6 ng/L and 896.3 ng/L,respectively.The AUC of the combined detection of HSPN was 0.899 and the sensitivity was 0.810,which was better than that of LTB4 and LTB4 alone(P<0.05).The average follow-up was(28.4 ± 10.3)months,with grade A prognosis in 133 cases(71.9%),B grade in 47 ca-ses(25.4%),and C grade in 5 cases(2.7%).The rank sum test showed,the prognosis of children with LTB4<987.6 ng/L was better than that of children with LTB4≥987.6 ng/L,the prognosis of children with LTFA<896.3 ng/L was better than that of children with LTFA≥896.3 ng/L.Spearman analysis showed that the content of LTB4 and LTFA was negatively correlated with prognosis(Rs= -0.693 and -0.637,P<0.05).The higher contents of LTB4 and LTFA,the worse the prognosis.Conclusion Combined detection of LTB4 and LTFA has important clinical significance for early diagnosis and prognosis of HSPN.
