Analysis of risk factors of postherpetic neuralgia

Objective To evaluate the risk factors for postherpetic neuralgia(PHN)in patients with herpes zoster.Methods A total of 256 inpatients with herpes zoster diagnosed in Department of Dermatology,The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from January 2017 to January 2018 were collected.Questionnaire survey,telephone follow-up and other methods were used to comprehensively evaluate the correlation between age of onset,gender and PHN.Results 197 patients were followed up,among which 73 patients developed PHN(37.05%).The final multivariate Logistic regression analysis results showed that the age was over 50 years old(OR:8.780;95%CI:3.057~25.218;P<0.001),Body side of skin lesion distribution(OR:0.453;95%CI:0.223~0.922,P=0.029);Bacterial infection secondary to skin lesions(OR:2.942;95%CI:1.266~6.835;P=0.012),and Pain rating(OR:4.148;95%CI:2.219~7.756;P<0.001)is an independent risk factor for PHN.About 15%of patients still had post-herpetic itch(PHI)3 months after onset.Spearman rank correlation test suggested that there was no correlation between it and PHN(r=0.097,P=0.177>0.05).Conclusion Age of onset,secondary bacterial infection of primary lesions and pain level in acute stage may be independent risk factors for PHN.No correlation exists between PHI and PHN.
