Abstract:
Objective:To analyze the clinical data of patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome（SFTS）in Linyi city of Shandong province from 2023 to 2024，analyze the related factors affecting the prognosis，improve the understanding of the disease and reduce its mortality..Methods:The data of 36 SFTS patients diagnosed and admitted to Linyi People's Hospital from May 2023 to August 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the clinical outcomes of the patients，they were divided into a survival group（n=30）and a death group（n=6）. The clinical data and laboratory test results of the two groups were analyzed to evaluate the risk factors related to prognosis.Results:The median age in the death group was 68.33 years old，and that in the survival group was 63.96 years old，with no statistically significant difference. All patients had fever，22 had fatigue and poor appetite，and 21 had muscle aches and other systemic symptoms. some were prone to general symptoms such as fatigue，poor appetite，and muscle soreness. All patients in the death group had neurological symptoms such as headache and consciousness disorders. The levels of serum potassium，CRP，PCT，IL-6，ALT，AST，CK，CK-MB，LDH，α-HBDH，APTT，D-D，and viral load in the death group were higher than those in the survival group，with statistically significant differences（ t=-3.344， P=0.002； Z=-2.195， P=0.028； Z=-3.648， P=0.000； Z=-3.641， P=0.000； Z=-2.241， P=0.025； Z=-2.288， P=0.022； Z=-2.427， P=0.015； Z=-2.007， P=0.045； Z=-3.127， P=0.002； Z=-2.404， P=0.016； Z=-2.755， P=0.006； Z=-3.081， P=0.002； P<0.05）. The platelet count in the death group was lower than that in the survival group，and the difference was statistically significant（ Z=-3.292， P=0.001， P<0.05）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that patients with increased AST，CK，IL-6，APTT，D-dimer and decreased platelet count had an increased risk of death. Fungal infections occurred in 15 cases，including 5 cases of Candida albicans，3 cases of Candida parapsilosis，and 7 cases of Aspergillus. All patients in the death group had fungal infections，all of whom had Aspergillus infections. Conclusion:SFTS patients often have fever，fatigue，and muscle soreness，and critically ill patients are prone to neurological symptoms. Patients with elevated AST，CK，IL-6，APTT，D-D，viral load，and decreased platelet count in the course of the disease often indicate poor prognosis and should be closely monitored. In addition，critically ill patients are prone to fungal infection.
