Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the clinical feature of adult patients with infection-associated hemophagocytic syndrome (IAHS), and to improve the ability of clinicians to diagnose and treat IAHS.Methods:A retrospectively study was performed. The clinical data of 32 adult patients with IAHS admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from July 2014 to November 2019 were analyzed. The general data, clinical manifestations, laboratory results, imaging findings, pathogen and clinical outcomes were collected, and the patients were divided into survival group and death group according to the 28-day prognosis. The clinical data between the two groups were compared, and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the variables with statistical significance in univariate analysis. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of variables with statistical significance in univariate analysis for 28-day prognosis of adult patients with IAHS.Results:Among 32 adult patients with IAHS, there were 17 males (53.1%) and 15 females (46.9%). Eighteen patients were bacterial infection, most of which were Acinetobacter baumannii and Escherichia coli; 14 patients were viral infection, mainly EB virus; and the overall 28-day mortality was 62.5% (20/32). ① Compared with the survival group ( n = 12), the levels of white blood cell (WBC), neutrocyte (NEU), lymphocyte (LYM), platelet (PLT) and oxygenation index (OI) in the death group ( n = 20) were lower, while the levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), K +, serum ferritin (SF) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) were higher [WBC (×10 9/L): 3.90±3.36 vs. 9.57±6.48, NEU (×10 9/L): 2.69±2.09 vs. 7.01±6.34, LYM (×10 9/L): 0.36 (0.23, 0.84) vs. 1.24 (0.61, 2.36), PLT (×10 9/L): 51.15±27.60 vs. 108.42±80.26, OI (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 134.0 (77.5, 192.0) vs. 292.0 (187.0, 329.0), AST (U/L): 254.00 (67.80, 452.50) vs. 85.50 (38.38, 111.25), K + (mmol/L): 4.06 (3.65, 4.51) vs. 3.52 (3.26, 3.76), SF (μg/L): 6 290.0 (1 851.0, 13 904.8) vs. 1 777.1 (1 228.5, 3 486.3), LDH (μmol·s -1·L -1): 19.3 (11.9, 27.0) vs. 9.8 (6.9, 11.1), all P < 0.05]. In death group, duration of having a fever after admission was prolonged [days: 13.5 (9.0, 17.2) vs. 6.0 (2.5, 8.0), P < 0.05] and the incidence of cyanosis was higher (40.0% vs. 0%, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in other indicators between the two groups. ② Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that low OI combined with high LDH were risk factors for 28-day mortality of adult patients with IAHS [odds ratio ( OR) was 0.967 and 1.007, respectively, both P < 0.05].③ It was shown by ROC curve analysis that WBC, NEU, AST, SF, LDH and OI had predictive value for 28-day prognosis of adult patients with IAHS (both P < 0.05), and the area under ROC curve (AUC) of OI and LDH was higher, that was both 0.847. When the best cut-off of OI was 145.5 mmHg, the sensitivity was 63.2%, and the specificity was 100%. When the best cut-off of LDH was 13.4 μmol·s -1·L -1, the sensitivity was 72.2%, and the specificity was 91.7%. Conclusion:OI < 145.5 mmHg, and LDH > 13.4 μmol·s -1·L -1 were significant predictors for poor 28-day prognosis of adult patients with IAHS.
