Abstract:
ObjectiveThe difference of Cys-C ( serum cysteine proteinase inhibitor C) among sepsis group,systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) group,and non -SIRS group were explored in this study.The significance of mortality and the relationship between Cys-C and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE)Ⅱ score were under discussed. Methods After excluding the individual whose survival less than 24 hours,two hundred and fifty patients sought medical care in the emergency department of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital of the Capital Medical University were selected as samples from October 2008 to October 2009.They were classified into three groups:SIRS group ( n =121 ),non-SIRS group (n =74) and sepsis group ( n =55 ).The serum Cys-C level and APACHE Ⅱ score were determined for each patient.The positive detection rate of Cys-C ( > 830 ng/ml) was calculated and then a 28-day mortality was recorded according to this study result.The positive detection rate and 28-day mortality were also compared with chi-square test.The prognostic values of Cys-C,APACHE Ⅱ score for the 28-daymortality were evaluated by logistic regression analysis.Results There was significant change observed between sepsis group and non-SIRS group (41.38% vs. 13.57%,P =0.007 ) for the positive detection rate of Cys-C,as well as that between SIRS group and non-SIRS group ( 32.79% vs. 13.57%,P =0.005).However,a contrary result was obtained when compared sepsis group with SIRS group (41.38% vs.32.79%,P =0.346) ).Significant difference was noticed in the 28-day mortality of the patients from sepsis group and SIRS group in comparison to those of non-SIRS group (41.6% vs. 17.2%,P < 0.01 ;36.91% vs. 17.2%,P < 0.05).Cys-C level in patient with sepsis indicated a positive correlation to APACHE Ⅱ score ( P <0.0001 ).ConclusionsThe positive rate of Cys-C in SIRS group and septic group were significantly higher than that of non-SIRS patients,and this is an index for poor prognosis in sepsis patients.
