Abstract
Bacteremia frequently occurs in patients with acute cholangitis, which could increase the risk of mortality. This single-center retrospective observational study was conducted from July 2013 to July 2020 to evaluate the predictive value of platelet index for bacteremia at admission for acute cholecystitis. A total of 285 patients with acute cholangitis were divided into bacteremia group and non-bacteremia group. The incidence of bacteremia in acute cholangitis was 48.42%. The bacteremia group had more grade III patients, higher 30d mortality rate [17(12.32%) vs 8(5.44%), p = .040] and higher incidence of thrombocytopenia [76(55.07%) vs 35(23.81%), p < .001]. Platelet counts and plateletcrit were significantly lower in the bacteremia group [84.5(60, 180) vs 162(102,225) ×109/L and 0.10(0.07, 0.21)% vs 0.18(0.12, 0.25) %, both p < .001]. ROC analysis indicated a high predictive value of platelet count and plateletcrit for bacteremia in patients with acute cholangitis and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) were 0.649 and 0.655, respectively. These results support the value of platelet count and plateletcrit in early prediction of bacteremia at admission for acute cholangitis.
期刊介绍:
Platelets is an international, peer-reviewed journal covering all aspects of platelet- and megakaryocyte-related research.
Platelets provides the opportunity for contributors and readers across scientific disciplines to engage with new information about blood platelets. The journal’s Methods section aims to improve standardization between laboratories and to help researchers replicate difficult methods.
Research areas include:
Platelet function
Biochemistry
Signal transduction
Pharmacology and therapeutics
Interaction with other cells in the blood vessel wall
The contribution of platelets and platelet-derived products to health and disease
The journal publishes original articles, fast-track articles, review articles, systematic reviews, methods papers, short communications, case reports, opinion articles, commentaries, gene of the issue, and letters to the editor.
Platelets operates a single-blind peer review policy. Authors can choose to publish gold open access in this journal.
