病毒血清抗體力價反轉與突發性耳聾預後之關係

The Relationship between Viral Seroconversion and the Prognosis of Sudden Deafness

摘要


突發性耳聾是一種原因不明的病症,一般較為人所接受的病因假說為病毒感染造成。自1989年3月至1995年2月共6年間,台大醫院耳鼻喉部收集突發性耳聾之住院病患具完整配對病毒血清抗體力價及病歷紀錄者,計37名。患者於住院時收集第一次血清樣本,而於發病後第2-5週收集第二次樣本。此較此兩次即配對(paired)病毒血清抗體力價,如有上升或下降達四倍或以上者,則認定其具有病毒血清抗體力價反轉(viral seroconversion)。發生病毒血清抗體加價反轉的病毒出現頻率的高低依序為varicella-zoster virus、herpes simplex virus、cytomegalovirus、measles。另外,我們發現在病毒血清抗體力價反轉的病人中血沉值(ESR)升高者並未如預期的多、僅佔23%。將具病毒血清抗體力價反轉與不具此特性者,比較其預後的相關性。結果病毒血清抗體力價反轉之病患共有13名(35.1%),追蹤檢查顯示平均聽力閾值改善大於10 dB者有11名(84.6%);而不具血清抗體力價反轉者共有24名,其聽力改善者有21名(87.5%),兩者之間並無統計學上明顯的差異。再者,將病毒血清抗體力價反轉之13名病患分別經steroid或dextran治療後,此二者間的預後也沒有統計學上明顯的差異。

並列摘要


The relationship between viral serocon-version and the prognosis of sudden deaf-ness was studied. There were 37 paired serum samples from patients with sudden deafness who had complete chart records and audiometries in National Taiwan University Hospital from March 1989 to February 1995. We found an incidence of 35.1% (13/37) of documented significant seroconversions. There was a greater number of patients with seroconversions to varicella-zoster virus, herpes simplex virus, cytomegalovirus, and measles. The methods of treatment included; steroid, dextran, and steroid plus dextran. We didn’t find any significant difference between methods of treatment and hearing recovery in patients with viral seroconversion. There were also no difference in hearing recov-ery between seroconversion and non-sero-conversion patients.
