RESUMO
To investigate how effectively systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and Monocyte-to-HDL-cholesterol ratio (MHR) predict the development of early cardio-cerebral complications in elderly patients who have experienced acute severe carbon monoxide poisoning (ASCMP). A retrospective analysis was conducted on 77 elderly patients with ASCMP admitted to the emergency department of Harrison International Peace Hospital from November 2020 to March 2022. The prevalence of early-onset complications among the 77 individuals was 38.96%. Binary Logistics regression analysis showed that SII and MHR were independent influencing factors of early cardio-cerebral complications in elderly patients with ASCMP. The complication group had a longer length of stay, a greater mortality rate, and a higher incidence of delayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning (p < .05) than the non-complication group. The area under the curve (AUC) of SII and MHR in predicting early cardio-cerebral complications in elderly patients with ASCMP were 0.724 and 0.796, respectively, with 80.0% and 63.3% sensitivity, and 61.7% and 87.2% specificity. The incidence of early cardio-cerebral complications in elderly patients who had ASCMP is high and the prognosis is poor. SII and MHR can be utilized as independent predictors of early cardio-cerebral complications in elderly patients with ASCMP, allowing doctors to diagnose and treat cardio-cerebral complications earlier and improve prognosis.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To study the relationship between lactate clearance rate (LCR) and prognosis after acute carbon monoxide poisoning in patients with delayed encephalopathy (DEACMP). METHODS: Data from 354 patients with acute severe carbon monoxide poisoning (ASCOP) were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into hyperlactacidemia group (arterial lactic acid > 2 mmol/L, n=263) and low lactic acidosis group (arterial lactate ≤2 mmol/L, n=91) according to the blood lactic acid level at admission. Arterial blood (1 mL) was collected from all patients before and 6, 24, 72 hours after treatment at ambient air, and arterial blood lactic acid was determined, and LCR was calculated. The initial level of blood lactic acid and LCR at 6, 24, 72 hours were compared between two groups. At the same time, the patients with hyperlactacidemia were divided into high LCR group (LCR more than 10%, n=101) and low LCR group (LCR less than or equal to 10%, n=162) according to 6-hour LCR, and the incidence of DEACMP was compared between two groups. The relationship between LCR and the incidence of DEACMP was analyzed with Spearman linear correlation analysis. The risk factors associated with DEACMP were analyzed with logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: The initial level of blood lactic acid (2.73±0.57 mmol/L vs. 1.69±0.20 mmol/L, t=5.327, P=0.001) and LCR at 6, 24, 72 hours [6 hours: (9.0±2.4)% vs. (1.2±0.6)%, t=9.468, P=0.001; 24 hours: (8.6±3.7)% vs. (1.2±0.4)%, t=4.889, P=0.001; 72 hours: (14.0±3.9)% vs. (1.7±1.0)%, t=5.211, P=0.001] in hyperlactacidemia group were significantly higher than those in low lactic acidosis group. The initial level of blood lactic acid in high LCR group was significantly lower than that in low LCR group (2.41±0.23 mmol/L vs. 2.92±0.63 mmol/L, t=2.429, P=0.023), and LCR at 6 hours and 24 hours were significantly higher than those in low LCR group [6 hours: (11.0±1.2)% vs. (8.0±2.1)%, t=4.487, P=0.001; 24 hours: (12.2±3.0)% vs. (6.3±1.8)%, t=6.264, P=0.001]. But there was no difference in 72-hour LCR between high LCR group and low LCR group [(14.1±3.6)% vs. (13.9±4.1)%, t=0.182, P=0.857]. The incidence of DEACMP in high LCR group was significantly lower than that in low LCR group [15.8% (16/101) vs. 61.1% (99/162), χ(2)=51.814, P=0.001]. The blood LCR at early period (6, 24, 72 hours) in ASCOP patients with hyperlactacidemia was negatively correlated with the incidence of DEACMP (r1=-0.493, P1=0.011; r2=-0.408, P2=0.038; r3=-0.428, P3=0.029). Logistic regression analysis showed that LRC at 6 hours and 24 hours [odds ratio (OR) was 2.701, 1.070, P value was 0.035, 0.001], long-time coma (OR=1.537, P=0.068), contact carbon monoxide (CO) long time (OR=2.686, P=0.014), age (OR=1.464, P=0.017), acute carbon monoxide complications (OR=1.363, P=0.072) patients with ASCOP had an increased risk of DEACMP. CONCLUSIONS: LCR is helpful for the assess of DEACMP patients severity, for the treatment guide and for prognosis judgement.
