Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is an autoimmune-mediated hemorrhagic disease. Anti-glycoprotein autoantibodies play a key role in the pathophysiology of ITP, but the relationship between platelet-specific antibodies and bleeding severity is unclear. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between anti-glycoprotein autoantibodies and bleeding severity in children with newly diagnosed ITP and platelet count less than 10 × 10 /L.
This was a single-center prospective observational study that analyzed children with newly diagnosed ITP and platelet count less than 10 × 10 /L between June 2018 and September 2021 at our hospital. The children were classified into the mild and severe groups based on the bleeding scores. The type and titer of anti-glycoprotein autoantibodies were detected using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit (PAKAUTO). We analyzed the relationship between bleeding severity and anti-glycoprotein autoantibodies.
A total of 86 cases were enrolled, including 42 in the mild group and 44 in the severe group. Patients with anti-GPIIb/IIIa or anti-GPIb/IX antibodies suffered more severe bleeding than patients without them (χ = 7.303, p = .007; χ = 3.875, p = .049), but there was no significant difference between patients with or without anti-GPIa/IIa antibodies (χ = 0.745, p = .388). When antibodies were analyzed together, patients with three antibodies suffered more severe bleeding than those without three antibodies (χ = 5.053, p = .025). Patients with higher antibody titer in the eluent, but not in the plasma, suffered more severe bleeding in all three antibodies (Z = -2.389, p = .017; Z = -2.108, p = .035; Z = -2.557, p = .011).
Anti-glycoprotein autoantibodies led to more severe bleeding in children under 18 years of age without drug treatment with newly diagnosed ITP and platelet count less than 10 × 10 /L.
免疫性血小板减少症(ITP)是一种自身免疫介导的出血性疾病。抗糖蛋白自身抗体在 ITP 的病理生理学中起着关键作用,但血小板特异性抗体与出血严重程度之间的关系尚不清楚。本研究旨在分析初诊血小板计数<10×10/L 的儿童 ITP 患者中抗糖蛋白自身抗体与出血严重程度的关系。
这是一项单中心前瞻性观察研究,分析了 2018 年 6 月至 2021 年 9 月我院收治的初诊 ITP 且血小板计数<10×10/L 的儿童。根据出血评分将患儿分为轻度组和重度组。采用酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)试剂盒(PAKAUTO)检测抗糖蛋白自身抗体的类型和滴度。分析出血严重程度与抗糖蛋白自身抗体的关系。
共纳入 86 例患儿,其中轻度组 42 例,重度组 44 例。与无抗-GPIIb/IIIa 或抗-GPIb/IX 抗体的患儿相比,抗-GPIIb/IIIa 或抗-GPIb/IX 抗体的患儿出血更为严重(χ=7.303,p=0.007;χ=3.875,p=0.049),而无抗-GPIa/IIa 抗体的患儿之间无显著差异(χ=0.745,p=0.388)。当联合分析抗体时,三种抗体均阳性的患儿出血更为严重(χ=5.053,p=0.025)。在洗脱液而非血浆中抗体滴度较高的患儿,所有三种抗体的出血均更为严重(Z=-2.389,p=0.017;Z=-2.108,p=0.035;Z=-2.557,p=0.011)。
在未接受药物治疗的初诊血小板计数<10×10/L 的 18 岁以下儿童 ITP 患者中,抗糖蛋白自身抗体导致出血更为严重。
