ABSTRACT
Objective:
To explore the risk factors for hemophagocytic syndrome (HPS) in childhood Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated infectious mononucleosis (IM).Methods:
From January 2013 to December 2017, the medical charts of all children who were diagnosed with EBV-associated IM and HPS in Children′s Hospital of Soochow University were analyzed retrospectively. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 22.0.Results:
A total of 316 IM and 59 HPS were enrolled. The age was (4.26 ± 2.95) years old with a male-to-female ratio of 1.2∶1. In addition to the diagnostic criteria of HPS, there were significantly lower rates of fever >10 d, hepatomegaly, jaundice, alanine aminotransferase >500 U/L, aspartate aminotransferase >500 U/L, LDH >1 000 U/L, C-reactive protein >50 mg/L and hypoalbuminemia in children with EBV-associated IM compared to those with HPS, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that fever >10 d, eyelid edema, lymphadenopathy and purulent tonsils were independent predictors of HPS in children with EBV-associated IM ( P<0.05). Hepatomegaly and fever >10 d were risk factors ( OR = 16.079 and 12.138, 95% CI 2.788 to 92.744 and 2.878 to 51.180). Eyelid edema, lymphadenopathy and purulent tonsils were protective factors ( OR = 0.087, 0.006 and 0.031; 95% CI 0.010 to 0.723, 0.001 to 0.058 and 0.007 to 0.146).Conclusions:
Hepatomegaly and fever >10 d are the risk factors for hemophagocytic syndrome in childhood EBV-associated infectious mononucleosis.
