[Analysis of related factors affecting treatment results in 126 patients with oral and maxillofacial space infection].

This study was aimed to retrospectively investigate the related factors of oral and maxillofacial space infection in 126 patients.The clinical data of 126 patients with oral and maxillofacial space infection were collected from the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University during the period of 2015 to 2017. The clinical features (e.g. body mass index, the number of days from onset to hospital admission, and the number of inflammatory spaces, and etc.) as well as laboratory examination variables (e.g. leucocytic count, the number of neutrophilic granulocyte, interleukin-6, C reactive protein, calcitonin, blood glucose, blood lipids, albumin, and etc.). Pearson correlation method were used to analyze the correlated factors and multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the related factors with SPSS20.0 software package.Correlation analysis showed that there was a significant correlation in the hospitalization days with the ages, white blood cells, neutrophilic granulocyte, neutrophil ratio, C reactive protein, body mass index, triglyceride, high density lipoprotein, the number of inflammatory spaces. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that there were 4 independent variables (P<0.05), which were the number of inflammatory spaces, the number of days from onset to hospital admission, triglyceride and neutrophilic granulocyte.There was a positive correlation between the hospitalization days with the number of inflammatory spaces, triglyceride, inflammatory cells and cytokines in patients with oral and maxillofacial space infection. In addition, the related factors affecting the treatment results of oral and maxillofacial space infection include the number of inflammatory spaces, the number of days from onset to hospital admission, triglycerides and neutrophils.
