The study on the inflammatory factors of the G6PD-deficiency children with bacterial infection / 中华急诊医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of inflammatory factors in bacterial infection children with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in PICU.Methods:A prospective cohort study was carried out from June 2014 to December 2017. 77 bacterial infection children with pediatric critical illness score less than 80 who were admitted to the PICU, were recruit in the study.The patient diagnosed as other basic diseases,with history of high-dose glucocorticoid use, discharged or died within 24 hours were excluded.The recruited patients were divided into G6PD deficiency group (observation group with 36 cases) and non-G6PD deficiency group (control group with 41 cases) according to the presence or absence of G6PD deficiency.Blood samples were taken at admission, 12 hand 24 h after hospitalization to detect the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 10 (IL-10) andC-reactive protein (CRP). T test, χ2 test and Fisher exact test were used to analyze the changes of the above inflammatory factors, complications, prognosis, PICU stay time and hospitalization costs. Results:The levels of inflammatory factors in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group at admission, 12 and 24 hours after hospitalization, the differences were statistically significant (all P< 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in thechangerate of inflammatory factors between the two groups during treatment; The PICU stay time of observation group was longer [(7.98 ± 6.55) vs (5.01 ± 6.21)] and the hospitalization cost (yuan) was higher [(36 634.09 ± 11 876.67) vs (31 571.42 ± 10 245.80)], P<0.05; Compared to the control group, the incidence ofsevere sepsis, septic shock, MODS increased significantly, and the curative rate decreasedsignificantly in observation group( P<0.05). Conclusions:G6PD-deficient children with bacterial infections had serious inflammatory reactions with poor prognosis and higher hospitalization costs and were susceptible to the occurrence of severe sepsis, septic shock and MODS.
