Progressive hemorrhagic injury (PHI) greatly affects prognosis of traumatic brain injury (TBI). D-dimer/fibrinogen ratio (D/F ratio) may be a potential predictor for venous thromboembolism. This study sought to describe and evaluate any relationship between D/F ratio and PHI after TBI.
This retrospective study included a cohort of 192 TBI patients. Plasma D-dimer and fibrinogen were measured, and subsequently D/F ratio was calculated. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to identify predictors of PHI. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was conFig.d to analyze predictive capability for PHI.
A total of 43 patients (22.4%) experienced PHI. Both Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score (odds ratio [OR], 0.565; 95% CI, 0.464-0.689) and D/F ratio (OR, 4.026; 95% CI, 2.219-7.305) were the two independent predictor for PHI. Area under ROC curve (AUC) of D/F ratio was similar to that of GCS score (AUC, 0.816; 95% CI, 0.754-0.868 vs. AUC, 0.834; 95% CI, 0.773-0.883; P = 0.699). Moreover, D/F ratio significantly improved AUC of GCS score to 0.928 (95% CI, 0.881-0.960; P < 0.001).
D/F ratio was strongly predictive of PHI in the studied cohort and, thereby should be considered in the clinical management of TBI patients.
进行性出血性损伤(PHI)极大地影响创伤性脑损伤(TBI)的预后。D-二聚体/纤维蛋白原比值(D/F 比值)可能是静脉血栓栓塞的潜在预测指标。本研究旨在描述和评估 TBI 后 D/F 比值与 PHI 之间的关系。
本回顾性研究纳入了 192 例 TBI 患者。测量血浆 D-二聚体和纤维蛋白原,并计算 D/F 比值。采用多变量逻辑回归分析识别 PHI 的预测因素。绘制接收者操作特征(ROC)曲线以分析对 PHI 的预测能力。
共有 43 例患者(22.4%)发生 PHI。格拉斯哥昏迷评分(GCS)评分(比值比 [OR],0.565;95%置信区间 [CI],0.464-0.689)和 D/F 比值(OR,4.026;95%CI,2.219-7.305)均为 PHI 的独立预测因素。D/F 比值的 ROC 曲线下面积(AUC)与 GCS 评分相似(AUC,0.816;95%CI,0.754-0.868 与 AUC,0.834;95%CI,0.773-0.883;P=0.699)。此外,D/F 比值可显著提高 GCS 评分的 AUC 至 0.928(95%CI,0.881-0.960;P<0.001)。
D/F 比值可强烈预测研究队列中的 PHI,因此应考虑用于 TBI 患者的临床管理。
