Abstract:
Objective To study the clinical risk factors and the characteristics of cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of hypoxic-ischemia encephalopathy (HIE) in full-term infants in high-altitude area.Method From January 2014 to December,2016 full-term Tibetan infants with HIE and healthy full-term Tibetan infants admitted to our hospital were enrolled in the study.General conditions and perinatal status were retrospectively analyzed.Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were used to determine the risk factors of the HIE.MRI characteristics,location of the brain injuries and the correlation between HIE clinical grading and MRI grading were analyzed.Result During the study period,5 172 full-term Tibetan neonates were born in our hospital,198 of them were diagnosed of HIE and the incidence was 3.8％.According to HIE clinical grading,31 were mild,110 were moderate and 57 were severe.MRI grading included 34 mild,131 moderate and 33 severe.The main manifestations of MRI included white matter injury,especially subcortical white matter injury of frontal,parietal and occipital lobes,gray matter injury and diffuse cerebral edema.Mild HIE had a certain correlation with MRI grading,however,severe HIE had poor correlation with MRI grading.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that abnormal birth weight (＜2 500 g or＞4 000 g) and intrauterine distress were independent risk factors of HIE in full-term Tibetan neonates[OR (95％ CI):3.663 (1.961～6.843) and 5.419 (2.487～11.807)].Conclusion Macrosomia at birth,low birth weight and intrauterine distress are independent risk factors of HIE in Tibetan full-term neonates in Lhasa.White matter injury is the main MRI manifestation of HIE.Clinical grading of Mild HIE has good consistency with the MRI grading,but MRI grading is milder than the clinical grading for those with moderate and severe HIE.
