To determine the impact of adjuvant corticosteroids administered to patients hospitalized with influenza A (H7N9) viral pneumonia.
The effects of adjuvant corticosteroids on mortality were assessed using multivariate Cox regression and a propensity score-matched case-control study. Nosocomial infections and viral shedding were also compared.
Hospitals with influenza A (H7N9) viral pneumonia patient admission in 84 cities and 16 provinces of Mainland China.
Adolescent and Adult patients aged >14 yr with severe laboratory-confirmed influenza A (H7N9) virus infections were screened from April 2013 to March 2015.
None.
The study population comprised 288 cases who were hospitalized with influenza A (H7N9) viral pneumonia. The median age of the study population was 58 years, 69.8% of the cohort comprised male patients, and 51.4% had at least one type of underlying diseases. The in-hospital mortality was 31.9%. Two hundred and four patients (70.8%) received adjuvant corticosteroids; among them, 193 had hypoxemia and lung infiltrates, 11 had chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and 11 had pneumonia only. Corticosteroids were initiated within 7 days (interquartile range, 5.0-9.4 d) of the onset of illness and the maximum dose administered was equivalent to 80-mg methylprednisolone (interquartile range, 40-120 mg). The patients were treated with corticosteroids for a median duration of 7 days (interquartile range, 4.0-11.3 d). Cox regression analysis showed that compared with the patients who did not receive corticosteroid, those who received corticosteroid had a significantly higher 60-day mortality (adjusted hazards ratio, 1.98; 95% CI, 1.03-3.79; p = 0.04). Subgroup analysis showed that high-dose corticosteroid therapy (> 150 mg/d methylprednisolone or equivalent) significantly increased both 30-day and 60-day mortality, whereas no significant impact was observed for low-to-moderate doses of corticosteroids (25-150 mg/d methylprednisolone or equivalent). The propensity score-matched case-control analysis showed that the median viral shedding time was much longer in the group that received high-dose corticosteroids (15 d), compared with patients who did not receive corticosteroids (13 d; p = 0.039).
High-dose corticosteroids were associated with increased mortality and longer viral shedding in patients with influenza A (H7N9) viral pneumonia.
确定给予甲型H7N9流感病毒性肺炎住院患者辅助性皮质类固醇激素的影响。
使用多变量Cox回归和倾向评分匹配病例对照研究评估辅助性皮质类固醇激素对死亡率的影响。还比较了医院感染和病毒脱落情况。
中国大陆16个省份84个城市收治甲型H7N9流感病毒性肺炎患者的医院。
2013年4月至2015年3月期间,对年龄>14岁、实验室确诊为重症甲型H7N9病毒感染的青少年及成年患者进行筛查。
无。
研究人群包括288例甲型H7N9流感病毒性肺炎住院患者。研究人群的中位年龄为58岁,队列中69.8%为男性患者,51.4%至少有一种基础疾病。住院死亡率为31.9%。204例患者(70.8%)接受了辅助性皮质类固醇激素治疗;其中,193例有低氧血症和肺部浸润,11例有慢性阻塞性肺疾病,11例仅有肺炎。皮质类固醇激素在发病7天内(四分位间距,5.0 - 9.4天)开始使用,最大剂量相当于80mg甲泼尼龙(四分位间距,40 - 120mg)。患者接受皮质类固醇激素治疗的中位持续时间为7天(四分位间距,4.0 - 11.3天)。Cox回归分析显示,与未接受皮质类固醇激素治疗的患者相比,接受皮质类固醇激素治疗的患者60天死亡率显著更高(调整后风险比,1.98;95%置信区间,1.03 - 3.79;p = 0.04)。亚组分析显示,高剂量皮质类固醇激素治疗(>150mg/d甲泼尼龙或等效剂量)显著增加30天和60天死亡率,而低至中等剂量的皮质类固醇激素(25 - 150mg/d甲泼尼龙或等效剂量)未观察到显著影响。倾向评分匹配病例对照分析显示,接受高剂量皮质类固醇激素治疗的组(15天)病毒脱落中位时间比未接受皮质类固醇激素治疗的患者(13天)长得多(p = 0.039)。
高剂量皮质类固醇激素与甲型H7N9流感病毒性肺炎患者死亡率增加和病毒脱落时间延长相关。
