Abstract:
Objective To predict the severity of acute pancreatitis by detecting the changes of microRNA in the serum,and whether paracentesis catheter drainage (PCD) should be applied to the patients.Methods The peripheral blood of 120 patients with acute pancreatitis who were admitted to the General Hospital of Chengdu Military Command from October 2013 to March 2014 were collected.Thirty-five patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) or moderately severe acute pancreatitis (MSAP) were in the group A,and 85 patients with mild acute pancreatitis (MAP) were in the group B.The scores of the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ),RANSON and bedside index for severity in acute pancreatitis (BISAP) were assessed.The expressions of the miR-146a,miR-10b,miR-21 and miR-26a in the serum were detected by the real-time quantitative PCR.The differences in the expressions of the 4 kinds of microRNAs in the 2 groups were compared,and the correlation between the 3 exaluation system was analyzed.Factors influencing the timing of the PCD for the PCD patients were analyzed.The measurement data were analyzed using the t test,and the relationship between the variables was analyzed using the linear correlation analysis or the rank correlation analysis.Univariate or multivariate analysis was done by the Logistic regression analysis.Results (1) The scores of the APACHE Ⅱ,RANSON and BISAP were 8.28 ±0.61,3.42 ±0.54 and 1.71 ±0.32 in the group A,and 3.18 ±0.52,1.43 ±0.25 and 0.37 ±0.06 in the group B,with significant differences between the 2 groups (t =4.266,7.809,4.113,P ＜ 0.05).(2) The expressions of the miR-146a,miR-10b,miR-21 and miR-26a were 1.41 ± 0.21,2.94 ± 0.49,1.62 ± 0.25,1.21 ± 0.20 in the group A,and 6.29 ± 0.91,0.52 ± 0.09,2.82 ± 0.33 and 3.57 ± 0.64 in the group B.There were significant differences in the expression of the miR-146a and miR-10b between the 2 groups (t＝-2.156,2.110,P ＜0.05),while no significant difference in the miR-21,miR-26a was detected between the 2 groups (t =-1.114,-1.571,P ＞ 0.05).(3) There was correlation between the expressions of the miR-146a,miR-10b and the APACHE Ⅱ,RANSON,BISAP in the group A (r =-0.826,0.837,-0.874,0.866,-0.833,0.899,P ＜ 0.05),while no correlation was detected between the expressions of the miR-21,miR-26a and the 3 exaluation systems in the group A (r =0.642,0.321,0.701,0.750,0.716,0.716,P ＞ 0.05).There was no significant difference between the miR-146a,miR-10b,miR-21,miR-26a and the APACHE Ⅱ (r =0.067,0.347,0.133,0.111,P＞0.05),RANSON (r=0.178,0.078,0.092,0.142,P ＞0.05) and BISAP (r =0.103,0.260,0.216,0.285,P ＞ 0.05) in the group B.(4) The results of univariate analysis showed that miR-10b,RANSON and BISAP were the factors influencing the timing of PCD (OR =4.170,5.612,2.500,95 ％ confidence interval:1.092-15.932,1.232-21.622,1.190-5.254,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that miR-10b was the factor influencing the timing of PCD (OR =2.374,95％ confidence interval:1.115-5.056,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions miR-10b and miR-146a might be the predictors of severity of severe acute pancreatitis; miR-10b might be the indicator in judging whether PCD should be applied.
