Risk factors
We observed male sex, advanced age, obesity, hypertension, liver
insufficiency, renal insufficiency, and anemia could be risk factors of
DAMAR occurrence. The incidence was significantly higher in males than
in females. The ratio of male-to-female was 2.22:1. Giorgia M etc.[15] reported a similar gender ratio in
rhabdomyolysis. Advanced age and obesity (BMI>28
kg/m2) were considered as known risk factors[3, 16], Our study also supported these points.
Patients we included was accompanied with basic diseases, which is
consistent with cross-sectional study in SAMS[17]. special populations are more liable to
DAMAR, suggested that clinicians should assess patients’ related risk
factors before drug administration.
