Brief Summary

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare, poorly recognized and underdiagnosed syndrome of excessive immune activation, which is rapidly fatal. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a common trigger of HLH, particularly in Asian individuals. We aim to analyze metabolomics and cytokine profiles of patients before and after treatment to explore the metabolomic characteristics of EBV-HLH, and search for pathogenic mechanisms and therapeutic targets.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Difference in metabonomics pattern between subgroups

    Compare metabonomics pattern of the survival group with that of the death group, identify potential predictors of outcomes, and establish a survival prediction model in patients with EBV-HLH. Measure metabolite levels.

    2 months

  • Difference in cytokine pattern between subgroups

    Compare metabonomics and cytokine pattern of the survival group with that of the death group, identify potential predictors of outcomes, and establish a survival prediction model in patients with EBV-HLH. Measure cytokine levels.

    2 months
