BACKGROUND
The objective of this study was to explore the role of laboratory parameters as early indicators of severity and as effective predictors of prognosis in patients with hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS).
METHODS
A total of 356 patients were enrolled in this study and were divided into mild, moderate, severe and critical types according to the clinical classification of HFRS. The levels of 12 routinely tested laboratory parameters during the acute stage among the four types were compared. The predictive values of the laboratory parameters for prognosis were analyzed, and a risk model for prognosis based upon the parameters was constructed.
RESULTS
The levels of white blood counts (WBC), platelets (PLT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), albumin (ALB), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Scr), prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) demonstrated significant differences among the four types (p<0.001); WBC, AST, PT and fibrinogen (Fib) were major independent risk factors for death; WBC, AST, PT and Fib used in combination were better for predicting prognosis than single parameters used alone (p<0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Some routinely tested laboratory parameters can be beneficial as early indicators of severity of HFRS. Using a combination of WBC, AST, PT and Fib to predict the outcome in patients with HFRS exhibited acceptable diagnostic capability.
