Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the epidemiological and clinical features of patients with hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) from 2017 to 2019.Methods:Seventy-five patients with HFRS from the Department of Infectious Diseases, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University during January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2019 were included. The data of epidemiology, clinical symptoms, blood routine, urine routine, serum creatinine, liver function and other laboratory examination indexes were retrospectively analyzed. The measurement data with skewness distribution were expressed by M( QR) and compared by nonparametric test. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze disease-related risk factors. Results:The 75 patients were mainly located in the western and northern regions of Anhui Province. A total of 37 cases (49.3%) were infected during November, December and January next year. Fifty-four (72.0%) patients were farmers and 10(13.3%) patients had a clear history of rodent contact. Only 19(25.3%) patients had typical clinical manifestations of "three red and three pain" . Fifty-eight (77.3%) patients had elevated white blood cell count, 67(89.3%) patients had decreased platelet count, 55(73.3%) patients had urinary protein + + + , 65(86.7%) patients had abnormal urinary occult blood, and 67(89.3%) patients had elevated serum creatinine. The serum creatinine and potassium levels in 31 severe and critical patients were 495(301) μmol/L and 4.14(0.77) mmol/L, respectively, which were both higher than those in 44 mild and moderate patients (235(289) μmol/L and 3.65(1.02) mmol/L, respectively). The differences were both statistically significant ( Z=-3.187 and -2.796, respectively, both P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum creatinine (odds ratio ( OR)=1.005, 95% confidence interval ( CI)1.002-1.008) and serum potassium ( OR=2.632, 95% CI 1.098-6.313) were independent risk factors for disease severity. All patients received comprehensive medical treatment, and 27 patients received renal replacement therapy. Sixty-eight patients had good prognosis and four patients died. Conclusions:HFRS is still common in the rural area in winter and spring. Patients with atypical clinical manifestations and severe and critical patients should be intensively monitored.
