Abstract:
Objective To study the application of serum microRNA(miR)-338-3p and miR-495-3p levels in the diagnosis and disease evaluation of severe adenovirus pneumonia in children.Methods A total of 130 chil-dren with adenovirus pneumonia who were treated in Cangzhou Central Hospital from November 2020 to No-vember 2022 were enrolled as an observation group.According to the severity of the disease,the children were divided into a mild pneumonia group with 90 children and a severe pneumonia group with 40 children.A total of 130 healthy children who were examined in Cangzhou Central Hospital during the same period were en-rolled as the control group.The observation and control groups and the children with different disease severity were compared in terms of the serum levels of miR-338-3p and miR-495-3p.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of serum miR-338-3p and miR-495-3p for severe adeno-virus pneumonia.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of severe adeno-virus pneumonia.Results The observation group had a significantly lower serum level of miR-338-3p and a significantly higher serum level of miR-495-3p than the control group(P<0.05).There were significant differences in electrolyte disturbance,circulatory system complications incidence,miR-338-3p level,miR-495-3p level,sequential organ failure score and Murray lung injury score between the mild pneumonia group and the severe pneumonia group(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of serum miR-338-3p and miR-495-3p in the auxiliary diagnosis of severe adenovirus pneumonia were 0.745(95%CI 0.662-0.828)and 0.774(95%CI 0.685-0.863),respectively.And the AUC of the combination of the two was 0.884(95%CI 0.821-0.946),which was better than that of each index alone(Z=2.593,1.963,P<0.05).Conclusion The level of serum miR-338-3p is decreased and the level of serum miR-495-3p is increased in children with severe adenovirus pneumonia.The combined detection of miR-338-3p and miR-495-3p has a certain value in the diagnosis of severe adenovirus pneumonia and can be used as a serum indica-tor to evaluate the severity of severe adenovirus pneumonia.
