Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression level and clinical significance of microRNA(miR)-181c and microRNA(miR)-578 in the serum of patients with sepsis complicated by acute kidney injury(AKI).Methods Eighty patients with sepsis complicated by AKI(AKI group)and 80 patients with simple sepsis(non AKI group)who were hospitalized in Sinopharm Gezhouba Central Hospital from January 2022 to December 2022 were collected as research subjects.The serum levels of miR-181c and miR-578 in two groups were detected and compared.Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of sepsis patients complicated by AKI.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum miR-181c and miR-578 levels for patients with sepsis complicated by AKI.Results The proportion of pulmonary infection,the level of arterial blood lactic acid,creatinine,urea nitrogen and APACHEⅡ score in AKI group were higher than those in non-AKI group,and the oxygenation index was lower,the differences were statistically significant(χ2=7.364,t=14.298,26.691,17.925,7.104,12.676,all P<0.05).The serum miR-181c level in the AKI group(1.47±0.36)was higher than that in the non AKI group(1.03±0.28),the serum miR-578 level(0.76±0.19)was lower than that in the non AKI group(1.05±0.31),and the differences were statistically significant(t=8.629,7.134,all P=0.000).Logistic regression analysis showed that miR-181c[OR(95%CI):2.984(1.628~5.468)],pulmonary infection[OR(95%CI):1.946(1.250~3.031)],arterial blood lactic acid[OR(95%CI):1.457(1.073~1.978)],and APACHE Ⅱ score[OR(95%CI):2.283(1.393~3.741)]were risk factors for AKI in sepsis patients(all P<0.05);miR-578[OR(95%CI):0.742(0.631~0.873)]and oxygenation index[OR(95%CI):0.342(0.130~0.904)]were protective factors(all P<0.05).The combined prediction of serum miR-181c and miR-578 for AKI in sepsis patients had an AUC of 0.915,a sensitivity and a specificity of 83.65%,88.75%,respectively,which was superior to their individual predictions(Z=3.118,3.460,P=0.002,0.001).Conclusion The serum miR-181c expression is obviously up-regulated and miR-578 expression is obviously down-regulated in patients with sepsis complicated by AKI.The combination of the two has good reference value for predicting sepsis complicated by AKI.
