Abstract:Objective To investigate the predictive value of serum monocyte chemoattractant protein-1-induced protein-1 (MCPIP1) levels, mean platelet volume to platelet count ratio (MPV/PLT), prothrombin time (PT), and fibrinogen (FIB) levels for the prognosis of patients bitten by Deinagkistrodon acutus (sharp-snouted pit viper).Methods A total of 100 patients with Deinagkistrodon acutus bites admitted to our hospital from September 2019 to September 2025 were selected as the observation group. According to the severity of their condition, they were classified into mild (n = 55), severe (n = 31), and critical (n = 14) groups. Based on the recovery status, they were divided into a recovered group (n = 87) and a non-recovered group (n = 13). Additionally, 50 healthy individuals undergoing physical examinations during the same period were selected as the control group. MCPIP1, MPV/PLT, PT, and FIB levels were compared among the groups. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was constructed to analyze the predictive value of these indicators for the prognosis of the patients.Results The levels of MCPIP1, MPV/PLT, and PT in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group, while FIB levels were significantly lower (P < 0.05). There were statistically significant differences in MCPIP1, MPV/PLT, PT, and FIB levels among patients in the mild, severe, and critical groups (P < 0.05). The levels of MCPIP1, MPV/PLT, and PT in the non-recovered group were significantly higher than those in the recovered group, while the FIB level was significantly lower (P < 0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the combination of MCPIP1, MPV/PLT, PT, and FIB for prediction achieved an AUC of 0.981(95% CI:0.955,1.000), with a sensitivity of 92.3% (95% CI: 0.640, 0.998) and a specificity of 98.9% (95% CI: 0.938, 1.000).Conclusion Serum levels of MCPIP1, MPV/PLT, FIB, and PT demonstrate significant predictive value for the prognosis of patients bitten by Deinagkistrodon acutus.
