Abstract:
Objective To investigate the alterations of peripheral blood T lymphocyte subsets in patients with sepsis and septic acute kidney injury, and explore the clinical significance.Methods Fifty-five patients with sepsis and forty-three patients with septic acute kidney injury were enrolled in this study. At the same period, thirty healthy subjects were enrolled as the control group.T lymphocyte subsets inclu-ding CD3 +T, CD4 +T, CD8 +T cells, and CD4 +T/CD8 +T in peripheral blood were detected by flow cy-tometry, and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ( APACHE Ⅱ) were graded within twenty-four hours after admission.Then, correlation of the APACHEⅡscores and T lymphocyte subsets was ana-lyzed.Results In the septic acute kidney injury group, peripheral blood CD3 +T, CD4 +T cell percenta-ges, and CD4 +T/CD8 +T ratio were significantly lower than those in the control group and the sepsis group (all P <0.05).In the septic acute kidney injury group with stage 3, CD3+T, CD4 +T cell percentages, and CD4 +T/CD8 +T ratio in the patients were significantly lower than those in stage 1 and stage 2 ( all P <0.05).In the septic acute kidney injury group,CD3 +T, CD4 +T cell percentages, and CD4 +T/CD8 +T ra-tio were significantly lower in dead group than those in survival group (all P <0.05).APACHEⅡscores in patients with sepsis were significantly negatively correlated with peripheral blood CD4 +T cell percentages and CD4 +T/CD8 +T ratio ( r =-0.645,-0.492, allP <0.05).Conclusions There are varying de-grees of cellular immune imbalance in patients with sepsis and septic acute kidney injury, characterized by decline of circulating CD3 +T, CD4 +T cell percentages, and CD4 +T/CD8 +T ratio.CD4 +T cell percenta-ges and CD4 +T/CD8 +T ratio are closely related to the severity and prognosis of septic acute kidney injury.
