Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the complicated virus infection of infants with pertussis and its effect on the disease.Methods:From January 2019 to March 2020, a total of 100 hospitalized infants with pertussis were admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Medical College of Shantou University, nasopharyngeal swabs were collected for detection of ten pathogens including pertussis, namely respiratory syncytial virus(RSV), parainfluenza virus(PIV), bordetella pertussis (BP), human rhinovirus(HRV), human bocavirus(HBoV), human metapneumovirus(hMPV), influenza B virus (INF-B), adenovirus, influenza A virus and cytomegalovirus(CMV). According to the results of pathogen detection, all infants were divided into single detection group of BP(single detection group) and co-detection group of BP combined with viruses(co-detection group). The clinical data of the two groups were retrospectively analyzed and compared to explore the differences of clinical characteristics and its impact on the course of disease.Results:Among 100 cases, there were 54(54.0%) boys and 46(46.0%)girls.The age ranged from 28 days to 2 years and 5 months, with a median age of 3.5 months.Fifty-six cases were classified as single detection group, while 44 cases were included into co-detection group.Among infants in co-detection group, fourteen cases were co-infected with CMV(31.8%, 14/44), seven cases with HRV(15.9%, 7/44), seven cases with PIV(15.9%, 7/44), four cases with RSV(9.1%, 4/44), one case with hMPV(2.2%, 1/44), eight cases with CMV+ HRV(18.2%, 8/44), one case with HRV+ HBoV (2.2%, 1/44), one case with CMV+ PIV(2.2%, 1/44)and one case with CMV+ PIV+ INF-B(2.2%, 1/44). The number of infants in the single detection group who had cyanosis before treatment, requiring repiratory support, PICU admission, severe pneumonia or abnormal myocardial enzymes were higher than those in the co-detection group( P<0.05), while the months of age were lower than that in the co-detection group( P<0.05). When comparing the clinical characteristics of infants over three months of age, only the number of cases of combined cyanosis before treatment and the number of days in hospital were higher in the single detection group than those in the co-detection group ( P<0.05), no statistically significant differences were found in the other clinical characteristics between the two groups( P>0.05). Conclusion:The cases of infants requiring repiratory support, complicated with severe pneumonia or abnormal myocardial enzymes in the single detection group are higher than those in the co-detection group, which may be attributed to the small age of months.
