Abstract
Objective
To explore the relationship between vitamins levels and disease-related indicators in children with acute leukemia (AL).
Methods
A total of 107 hospitalized children with AL were enrolled in this study and assigned to one group in each of the following categories: infected group (n = 52) and noninfected group (n = 55); treatment remission group (n = 56) and nonremission group (n = 51); high-risk (HR) group (n = 44), intermediate risk (IR) group (n = 53), and slight risk (SR) group (n = 8); cyclophosphamide + cytosine arabinoside+6-mercaptopurine + pegaspargase group (CAML, n = 15); methotrexate group (MTX, n = 9); and vindesine + daunomycin + L-asparaginasum + prednisone (VALP, n = 38). Hematological and serological parameters, hepatic and renal function, and changes in vitamins A, B1, B2, B6, B9, B12, C, D, and E serum content in children with AL were analyzed to investigate their relationship with AL disease-related factors.
Results
The vitamin D level was significantly higher in the noninfected group than in the infected group (P < 0.05). Compared with the nonremission group, the level of vitamin B1 in the treatment remission group was significantly higher, while the levels of vitamin B6 and B12 were notably lower (P < 0.05). The levels of vitamins B6 and B12 were notably different among the treatment groups. Multivariate analysis showed that hemoglobin (Hb) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were predisposing factors of AL in children. The disease type (acute lymphoblastic leukemia/acute myelogenous leukemia) was the factor affecting remission in AL children. Abnormal kidney function and the occurrence of icterus were the influencing factors for the risk degree in AL children. Platelet (PLT) count, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), neutrophils (N), and immunophenotype were shown to affect the choice of therapeutic regimens.
Conclusion
There are notable vitamins imbalances in children with AL. The imbalances influence disease-related factors and therefore provide some references for the prognosis and treatment of AL.
