ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the clinical and laboratory results and epidemiological characteristics of brucellosis.Methods The clinical and laboratory characteristics brucellosis cases (confirmed by Brucellosis Guidelines 2012) at the Department of Infectious Disease of the First Hospital of Jilin University between 2000 and 2016,were retrospectively evaluated.The patients were divided into two groups according to acute and chronic stages.According to the range of lesions,the lesions were divided into two groups,and comparative analysis of data between groups was done.Results The ages of the 607 patients (489 males,118 females) were ranged from 2 to 80 years.Among the 607 patients,570 (93.9%) were diagnosed with acute brucellosis,37 (6.1%) with chronic brucellosis.Focal involvement was found in 418 (68.9%) patients.Among them,382 patients were in acute stage,and the other in chronic phase (36).Acute patients' alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) were higher than those of chronic brucellosis (U/L47.2 vs 26.7,44.5 vs 24.0,Z =-3.684,-3.754,all P < 0.05).Although the white blood cell count,platelet values,C-reactive protein,and blood sedimentation were higher in patients with focal involvement (x 103/mm37.3 vs 5.4,211 vs 176;mg/L56.0 vs 30.5;mm/h37 vs 28,Z =-4.407,-2.709,-2.334,-2.137,all P < 0.05),patients without focal involvement had higher ALT and AST (U/L33.3 vs 53.9,30.2 vs 48.1,Z =-4.102,-3.730,all P < 0.05).Peripheral arthritis was the most common type of osteoarticular involvement in 317 patients with focal involvement,and peripheral arthritis was found to be the most frequently identified in the knee joint,112 patients (35.3%).Totally 80 patients were followed up,the relapse rate was 20.0% (16/80),2 patients treatment failure,only 1 patient died after 1 month of treatment who was diagnosed neuropathic brucellosis.Conclusions Focal involvement should be investigated in the presence of leucocytosis,and pain of a certain part.
