儿童重症化脓性脑膜炎CD3＋ CD8＋ T细胞与炎症指标、体液免疫的变化

目的：通过观察儿童重症化脓性脑膜炎早期血CD3＋CD8＋T细胞的变化,以及与炎症指标、体液免疫指标之间的关系,探讨其在儿童重症化脓性脑膜炎发生发展中的临床意义。方法回顾性分析中国医科大学附属盛京医院PICU 2014年8月1日至2015年12月31日收治的39例1个月~14岁的重症化脓性脑膜炎患儿,血CD3＋CD8＋T细胞计数正常或升高(≥190个/mm3)为A组( n＝22),降低(<190个/mm3)为B组(n＝17),分析患儿的一般资料、血液炎症指标、体液免疫、脑脊液改变在两组患儿中的分布和差异。结果17例(43.6％)患儿CD3＋CD8＋T细胞明显下降；所有4例死亡均为B组患儿；虽然没有统计学差异,但 B 组 Glasgow 昏迷评分<8分者比例(58.8％)高于 A 组(31.8％)。B组C-反应蛋白、降钙素原中位数(最小值-最大值)分别为251.0(26.2-417.0)mg/L、32.7(0.9-100.0)ng/L,远远高于A组的106.5(12.0-458.0)mg/L、4.5(0.1-200.0)ng/L,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)；B组中6例(35.3％)外周血WBC<4×109/L,而 A组为1例(4.6％),中性粒细胞>80％的比例A组为7例(31.8％),而B组为12例(70.6％),两组比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。 B组14例(82.3％)患儿脑脊液中糖含量<2.0 mmol/L,高于A组11例(50.0％)],两组比较差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论儿童重症化脓性脑膜炎CD3＋CD8＋T细胞可能受到抑制,其与患儿脑功能损伤程度、炎症反应以及预后相关。可能对指导临床免疫制剂的应用有一定帮助。

Changes of CD3 +CD8 +T cells and its relationships with markers of inflammation and humoral immu-nity in children with severe bacterial meningitis

Objective To explore the role of CD3 +CD8 +T cells in children with severe bacterial meningitis at early stage by studying the changes of CD3 +CD8 +T cells and its relationships with markers of inflammation and humoral immunity. Methods Thirty-nine cases aged ≤14 years old were enrolled in this retrospective study,who were admitted in our PICU from Aug 1. 2014 to Dec 31. 2015 with diagnosis of se-vere bacterial meningitis. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the changes of CD3 +CD8 + T cells:group A:normal or elevated(≥190/mm3,n=22),group B:decreased( <190/mm3,n=17). Distribu-tion and differences of biomarkers of inflammation,humoral immunity and changes in cerebrospinal fluid be-tween the two groups were analyzed. Results The ratio of CD3 + CD8 + T cells were decreased in 17 (43. 6%)cases. Though there was no statisticly significant difference,the percentile of patients in group B (58. 8%) with Glasgow coma score lower than 8 was higher than that in group A(31. 8%). All the four death were in group B. The mean values of C-reactive protein and procalcitonin were 251. 0(26. 2,417. 0) mg/L,32. 7(0. 9,100. 0) ng/L in group B,which were higher than those in group A106. 5(12. 0,458. 0) mg/L,4. 5(0. 1,200. 0)ng/L],respectively(P<0. 05). Six cases(35. 3%) in group B with WBC<4 × 109/L was more than 1 case(4. 6%) in group A,and 12 cases(70. 6%) in group B with ratio of neutrophils>80% was more than 7 cases(31. 8%) in group A,there were significant differences(P<0. 05). Fourteen cases(82. 3%) with glucose concentration lower than 2. 0 mmol/L in group B was more than 11 cases (50. 0%) in group A,the difference was significant(P<0. 05). Conclusion CD3 +CD8 +T cells might be suppressed in children with severe bacterial meningitis at early stage,and might associate to the damaging de-gree of brain,inflammation reaction and prognosis in those patients,which should be helpful in using of im-mune regulators for children with severe bacterial meningitis.
