Abstract:
Objective To evaluate and compare the value of interleukin(IL)-6,IL-8,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,and soluble form of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (sTREM)-1 in neonatal infection and detect the relationship between them.Methods Eighty-five full-term newborns who were admitted to the neonatal ward of Shanghai Children's Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University were enrolled,according to the locations and severity of infection,the patients were divided into three groups:systemic infection group (n =27),local infection group(n =28),and non-infection group (n =30).The level of plasma sTREM-1 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and the levels of IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α were measured using cytometric bead array.Results (1) The levels of sTREM-1,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α were significantly higher in infants with systemic infection group than local infection group and non-infection group(P ＜0.05).(2) There were 17 survivors and 10 deaths in systemic infection group,and the level of sTREM-1 in the non-survivor [(121.64 ±49.31) pg/ml] was higher than the survivor[(73.13 ± 34.92) pg/ml,P =0.006].But the levels of IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α were not statistically significant in the survivor and the death (P ＞ 0.05).(3) Based on the receiver operating characteristic analysis,cutoff values were identified for each variable that maximized both the sensitivity and specificity.These markers were considered positive if sTREM-1 ≥43.75 pg/ml,IL-6 ≥ 89.80 pg/ml,IL-8 ≥569.55 pg/ml and TNF-α ≥ 24.80 pg/ml.Among these indexes,the sensitivities were 85.5％,89.1％,70.1％ and 69.5％ respectively; the specificity were 80.0％,100％,100％ and 93.3％ respectively.Compared the area under curve(AUC) of them,IL-6(AUC =0.981)＞ sTREM-1 (AUC =0.868) ＞ TNF-α (AUC =0.864) ＞ IL-8 (AUC =0.852).sTREM-1 was correlated with IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α(Spearman coefficient of rank r =0.532,P ＜0.01 ;r =0.420,P ＜0.01 ;r =0.531,P ＜0.01).Conclusion (1) The levels of plasma sTREM-1,IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α were higher in neonatal infections;(2) sTREM-1 was associated with prognosis; (3) sTREM-1 was correlated with IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α.
