Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of initial absolute lymphocyte counts (ALC) in predicting the prognosis of children with primary immune thrombocytopenia(ITP).Methods The initial clinical data of 214 children with incipient ITP were retrospectively analyzed and followed up for more than one year.Statistical analysis was made to find out the influence factors for the prognosis of patients with ITP in children to evaluate the predictive value of ALC on assessing the prognosis of ITP in children,and to analyze the association between ALC and outcomes and the clinical value of prognostic stratification.Results The remission rate of children with ITP was 71.5％ in 12 months.Multivariate unconditioned Logistic analysis showed that disease duration,the infection history,response to treatment and ALC were independent risk factors for chronic ITP(all P ＜ 0.05).Cutoff value of initial ALC was 3.005 × 109/L,sensitivity and specificity of value were 71.9％,83.6％.Three months and 12 months no remission rate of ITP in children between ALC ＞ 3.005 × 109/L and ≤ 3.005 × 109/L had statistical significant difference (24.2％ vs 64.9％,8.3％ vs 54.2％,x2 =42.13,P ＜0.001).There was no statistical difference in therapy efficacy between 2 groups(x2 =5.098,P ＞ 0.05).Remission rate between the ≤5 years old group and ＞ 5 years old group was statistical difference based on age stratification(x2 =22.371,22.177,all P ＜ 0.01).ITP in children were stratified into low risk group,intermediate risk group,high risk group based on the initial ALC and infection history,with remission rates in 3 month respectively 75.8％,54.1％,22.8％,respectively,and 91.6％,68.4％,31.6％ in 12 months,respectively;there were statistically significant differences (x2 =44.867,68.802,all P ＜ 0.001).Conclusions Initial ALC is an independent effecting factor in the prognosis of children with ITP.Initial ALC could be used for stratifying patients with the infection history before 6 weeks and supposed to be a predictive index for the prognosis of ITP in children.
