Abstract:
Objective To explore relationship between clinical features and peripheral blood test indicators and curative effect in adult patients with acquired hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS). Methods A total of 61 adult patients with acquired HPS who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University and the Affiliated Jiangning Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2014 to March 2017 were enrolled, including 38 males and 23 females, with a median age of 48 years (17-86 years). The retrospective analyses of their clinical data and laboratory examination results were made in this study. Results There was no significant difference in the therapeutic effective rate of 61 HPS patients caused by different inducements after treatment (P =0.184). The prothrombin time (PT) before treatment was higher than that after treatment [(12.90±1.97) s vs. (12.35±1.78) s, P= 0.046]; the level of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) before treatment was higher than that after treatment (median: 476 U/L vs. 231 U/L, P = 0.000); the level of D-dimer (D-D) before treatment was higher than that after treatment (median: 1.46 mg/L vs. 0.51 mg/L, P = 0.007); the level of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) before treatment was higher than that after treatment (median: 54.9 U/L vs. 26.0 U/L, P= 0.000); the level of serum calcium before treatment was lower than that after treatment [(2.07±0.20) mmol/L vs. (2.18±0.23) mmol/L, P = 0.043]. The peripheral blood platelet counts (Plt) in the effective group (32 cases) before treatment was higher than that in the ineffective group (29 cases) (median: 104.0×109/L vs. 63.5×109/L, P =0.007), the level of albumin (ALB) in the effective group was higher than that in the ineffective group [(35.50 ±6.17) mmol/L vs. (31.93 ±6.54) mmol/L, P = 0.033], the level of serum calcium in the effective group was higher than those in the ineffective group [(2.18±0.18) mmol/L vs. (2.08±0.20) mmol/L, P = 0.047], the level of prothrombin time (PT) in the effective group was lower than that in the ineffective group [(12.40±1.76) s vs. (13.43±2.06) s, P = 0.041], and the level of LDH in the effective group was lower than that in the ineffective group (median: 415.0 U/L vs. 593.5 U/L, P= 0.032). Conclusion The lower expressions of Plt, ALB and serum calcium, and the higher expressions of PT and LDH may indicate the poor prognosis of adult acquired HPS, and there fore these patients need to be paid attention.
