Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical prognosis value of the positivity rate of oligoclonal bands(OCB)and immunoglobulin G(IgG)level of cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)in severe encephalitis.Methods A total of 699 cases of encephalitis patients admitted to the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University,and Xijing 986 Hospital from January 2016 to October 2020 were enrolled.According to the severity of their diseases,these patients were divided into a mild(n=360)group and a severe(n=339)group.CSF and serum samples were collected from the patient at the time of admission,and the differences in cerebrocyte count,glucose contem,glucose content,chlorine content,IgG of CSF and OCB of CSF and serum were compared.According to the GOS score of patients with severe encephalitis at discharge,the patients were divided into good prognosis group(n=259)and poor prognosis group(n=80),and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze factors that affected the prognosis of severe encephalitis patients,and the correlation between the OCB and IgG of CSF and prognosis of patients with severe encephalitis.The predictive value of CSF IgG for the prognosis of patients with severe encephalitis was tested,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted.Results Compared to patients with mild encephalitis,patients with severe encephalitis had a higher proportion of fever,pulmonary infection,status epilepticus,and mechanical ventilation,and were more likely to be complicated by stroke and hydrocephalus,and the differences were statistically significant(χ2=5.319～245.179,all P<0.05).There were significant differences in the positive rate of cerebrocyte count,chlorine content,IgG content and OCB in cerebrospinal fluid between the two groups(Z=-3.623,-4.875,-3.518,χ2=6.581,all P<0.05).CSF OCB and CSF IgG were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with severe encephalitis(Wald χ2=7.295,0.001,all P<0.05).A restrictive cubic spline plot showed a linear relationship between CSF IgG and poor prognosis.The AUC(95%CI)of CSF IgG was 0.754(0.632～0.876).Conclusion The CSF IgG content and positive rate of CSF OCB in patients with severe encephalitis with poor prognosis are higher than those in patients with good prognosis,and detecting these two indicators has certain reference value for the prognosis prediction of patients with severe encephalitis.
