Abstract

Dengue is a prevalent viral infection with diverse clinical manifestations. This study aims to examine the impact of low vitamin B12 levels in dengue patients, to explore the prevalence of serum vitamin B12 deficiency in dengue patients and its correlation with clinical manifestations, severity of thrombocytopenia, hospital stay, units of platelets transfused, and patient outcomes. This was conducted as a prospective cross-sectional study at MLNMC, Prayagraj, on 250 dengue patients. Among them, 189 tested positive for dengue serology. After excluding 5 patients, our detailed study focused on 184 subjects with serum vitamin B12 levels ranging from < 83 to > 2000 ng/ml. The prevalence of vitamin B12 deficiency among dengue cases was 37.0%. Notably, cases with vitamin B12 levels < 200 ng/ml were more likely to exhibit melena (20.6% vs. 6.9%) and epistaxis (10.3% vs. 0.9%) and conversely lesser incidence of joint pains (69.1% vs. 87.9%). MCV levels were significantly higher in cases with B12 levels < 200 ng/ml (96.78 ± 9.76 vs. 84.13 ± 7.14 femtolitres/cell). Platelet counts at presentation were significantly higher in cases with vitamin B12 ≥ 200 ng/ml (0.74 ± 0.43 vs. 0.56 ± 0.32 lacs/µl). Furthermore, cases with vitamin B12 < 200 ng/ml experienced higher rates of indoor admissions (92.6% vs. 75.0%) and longer hospital stays (4.38 ± 2.23 vs. 3.52 ± 2.60 days) and required more platelet transfusion units (4.63 ± 2.60 vs. 3.11 ± 1.99 days). Vitamin B12 levels play a crucial role in the clinical manifestations of dengue and are associated with increased severity of thrombocytopenia, prolonged hospital stays, and heightened requirements for platelet transfusion.

维生素 B12 水平与登革热患者临床表现、血小板减少症、住院时间和血小板恢复的相关性
登革热是一种流行性病毒感染,临床表现多种多样。本研究旨在检查维生素 B12 水平低对登革热患者的影响,探讨登革热患者血清维生素 B12 缺乏症的患病率及其与临床表现、血小板减少症严重程度、住院时间、输注血小板单位和患者预后的相关性。这项前瞻性横断面研究在 Prayagraj 的 MLNMC 对 250 名登革热患者进行。其中 189 人的登革热血清检测呈阳性。在排除了 5 名患者后,我们的详细研究集中于 184 名血清维生素 B12 水平在 < 83 至 > 2000 ng/ml 之间的受试者。在登革热病例中,维生素 B12 缺乏症的发病率为 37.0%。值得注意的是,维生素 B12 含量为 < 200 ng/ml 的病例更容易出现血尿(20.6% 对 6.9%)和鼻衄(10.3% 对 0.9%),相反,关节痛的发生率较低(69.1% 对 87.9%)。B12水平大于等于200纳克/毫升的病例MCV水平明显更高(96.78 ± 9.76 vs. 84.13 ± 7.14飞摩尔/细胞)。维生素 B12 含量≥ 200 ng/ml 的病例发病时的血小板计数明显更高(0.74 ± 0.43 vs. 0.56 ± 0.32 拉克/微升)。此外,维生素 B12 ≥ 200 ng/ml 的病例入院率更高(92.6% vs. 75.0%),住院时间更长(4.38 ± 2.23 vs. 3.52 ± 2.60 天),需要的血小板输注单位更多(4.63 ± 2.60 vs. 3.11 ± 1.99 天)。维生素 B12 水平在登革热的临床表现中起着至关重要的作用,与血小板减少的严重程度增加、住院时间延长和血小板输注需求增加有关。
