Objective:We try to screen out predictive indicators with higher value by analyzing the differences in clinical and laboratory indicators between severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) group and non-ICU group.Methods:The clinical and laboratory index data of 69 SFTS patients diagnosed in the laboratory in a hospital from June to December 2019 were retrospectively collected. According to the clinical outcome of the patients, they were divided into ICU and non-ICU groups. The differences in clinical manifestations and laboratory indicators between the two groups were analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to screen the more valuable predictive indicators.Results:Compared with the non-ICU group, ICU group SFTS patients had significantly higher procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), leucine aminopeptidase (LAP), glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), adenosine deaminase (ADA), cystatin C (Cys C), α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (α-HBDH), creatine kinase (CK), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels ( W=530.0, P=0.003; W=496.5, P=0.015; W=496.0, P=0.015; W=535.5, P=0.002; W=545.5, P=0.001; W=498.5, P=0.013; W=537.0, P=0.002; W=523.0, P=0.004; W=512.0, P=0.007; W=502.0, P=0.012; W=486.0, P=0.023; W=509.0, P=0.008; W=541.0, P=0.002) and significantly lower platelet count (PLT), indirect bilirubin (IBIL), albumin/globulin ratio(A/G) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels ( W=199.0, P=0.024; W=175.5.5, P=0.009; t=-2.9, P=0.004; W=209.5, P=0.036; t=-3.0, P=0.004). ROC result showed that ALP [area under the curve (AUC)=0.804, 95% confidence interval ( CI) (0.679~0.929)] and LDH [AUC=0.805, 95% CI (0.680~ 0.930)] have a higher value for predicting the risk of severe illness. Conclusions:Abnormal liver function, heart function, and renal function indicators in SFTS patients indicate that patients are at risk of exacerbation. Among them, ALP and LDH levels have higher predictive value for risk of severe disease, suggesting that the monitoring of patients with the above symptoms should be strengthened in the clinical nursing process.
