Wilson's disease (WD) is a rare hepatic and neurological disorder, which can dramatically worsen by traumatic injuries, surgeries, and infections. No studies have reported safety data of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccination in WD patients. We aimed to investigate the SARS-CoV-2 vaccination status and post-vaccination adverse events in WD patients.
This is a multicenter, retrospective, observational study. We investigated the vaccination rates, the type of vaccine, subjective reasons for non-vaccination, and the adverse events following vaccination. Logistic regression analysis was used to assess the correlation between vaccination status and increased Unified Wilson's Disease Rating Scale (UWDRS) scores.
A total of 554 WD patients with a mean (SD) age of 25.3 (10.85) years were included in this study, of whom 336 (60.6%) were males and 218 (39.4%) were females. 368 (66.4%) patients received at least one dose of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine.186 (33.6%) patients were unvaccinated. Logistic regression analysis showed that vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 was not significantly associated with increased UWDRS scores. The safety analysis demonstrated that 21.2% had post-vaccination adverse events.
In this study, vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 was safe in WD patients, providing evidence for the safety of vaccination in WD patients.
Wilson 病（WD）是一种罕见的肝脏和神经系统疾病，在创伤、手术和感染后可能会急剧恶化。目前尚无研究报告 WD 患者接种严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2（SARS-CoV-2）疫苗的安全性数据。我们旨在调查 WD 患者的 SARS-CoV-2 疫苗接种状况和接种后不良事件。
这是一项多中心、回顾性、观察性研究。我们调查了疫苗接种率、疫苗类型、未接种疫苗的主观原因以及接种后不良事件。采用逻辑回归分析评估接种状况与统一 Wilson 病评定量表（UWDRS）评分增加之间的相关性。
本研究共纳入 554 例 WD 患者，平均（SD）年龄为 25.3（10.85）岁，其中 336 例（60.6%）为男性，218 例（39.4%）为女性。368 例（66.4%）患者至少接种了 1 剂 SARS-CoV-2 疫苗。186 例（33.6%）患者未接种疫苗。逻辑回归分析表明，接种 SARS-CoV-2 疫苗与 UWDRS 评分增加无显著相关性。安全性分析显示，21.2%的患者出现接种后不良事件。
在本研究中，WD 患者接种 SARS-CoV-2 疫苗是安全的，为 WD 患者接种疫苗的安全性提供了证据。
