Abstract:
Objective:To observe the incidence of early blood eosinophils (Eos) elevation in patients with peritoneal dialysis (PD), analyze its related factors, and its relationship with early-onset peritonitis in PD patients.Methods:This study was a retrospective observational cohort study. Patients who underwent PD catheterization in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2012 to December 2022 were included. After surgery, PD treatment was started immediately and followed up regularly ≥12 months. The general information and laboratory indexes collected 1 week before catheterization, and at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after catheterization were recorded. The occurrence of elevated blood Eos (≥0.5×10 9/L) during the early stage of PD, the related factors of Eos elevation (≥0.5×10 9/L) and the relationship with early-onset peritonitis (within 12 months after PD initiation) were analyzed. Results:(1) A total of 235 patients were enrolled, with an age of (57.9.±13.9) years, including 136 males (57.9%). The primary diseases were predominantly chronic glomerulonephritis (111/235, 42.7%) and diabetic nephropathy (83/235, 35.3%). During the 12-month follow-up period, 73 patients had elevated blood Eos (31.1%), of which 37 cases (50.7%) occurred within 1 month after PD catheterization, 21 cases (28.7%) occurred 2-3 months after PD catheterization, 12 cases (16.4%) occurred 4-6 months after PD catheterization, and 3 cases (4.1%) occurred 7-12 months after PD catheterization. In 73 patients with elevated Eos, 69 cases (94.5%) were mildly elevated, 4 cases (5.5%) were moderately elevated. As for the duration of elevated blood Eos, 28 cases (38.4%) lasted less than 1 month, 27 cases (37.0%) lasted 1-3 months, and 18 cases (24.7%) lasted more than 3 months. (2) In patients with elevated blood Eos, the proportion of male patients (71.4% vs. 52.1%, χ 2=7.515, P=0.006), the proportion of diabetes mellitus (55.7% vs. 41.2%, χ 2=4.168, P=0.046), and the proportion of combined vascular disease (32.9% vs. 18.2%, χ 2=6.060, P=0.017) were significantly higher than those patients in normal blood Eos group. (3) Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that male was an independent related factor for elevated blood Eos (≥0.5×10 9/L) in the early stages of PD ( OR=2.044, 95% CI 1.101- 3.794, P=0.023). (4) Diabetes mellitus ( OR=3.363, 95% CI 1.087-10.405, P=0.035), lower baseline hemoglobin level ( OR=0.941, 95% CI 0.903-0.980, P=0.004) and elevated blood Eos (with serum Eos<0.5×10 9/L as reference, OR=2.917, 95% CI 1.022-8.326, P=0.045) were the independent related factors of early-onset peritonitis. Conclusion:Blood Eos elevations are common in early stage of PD patients , mainly occuring within 6 months after PD catheterization, and most of them are slightly increased and last less than 3 months. Male sex is an independent related factor for the elevation of blood Eos in the early stage of PD. Elevated blood Eos is an independent related factor for early-onset peritonitis.
