The laboratory data were selected at the time of admission. To identify the potential independent risk factors for severe fever associated with thrombocytopenia syndrome, multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the prediction accuracy of PAR in identifying patients exhibiting severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome.Results: Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that PAR could potentially serve as an independent risk factor for the death in patients with SFTS (OR = 4.023, 95% CI 1.204– 13.436, P=0.024). The prediction of the risk of death in patients with SFTS was assessed using the AUC. The AUC for the PAR was 0.729 (95% CI, 0.637– 0.82, P < 0.001), whereas the optimal cut-off value of PAR was found to be 1.43, with 54.9% sensitivity and 86.1% specificity.Conclusion: Our study demonstrated for the first time that PAR could act as an independent predictor for mortality in adult patients with SFTS.Keywords: severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome, risk factors, platelet-to-albumin ratio |
