Abstract:
Objective To study the expression of miR-146a in the serum of sepsis and the diagnostic value.Methods Serum miR-146a expression was detected in 98 patients diagnosed with sepsis,69 patients with severe sepsis and 30 healthy controls.ROC plots were used to evaluate the diagnostic value.Results The expression of miR-146a was decreased successively in healthy group,general sepsis group and severe sepsis group.In the diagnosis of sepsis,at the optimal expression cutoff miR-146a value of 0.805,the sensitivity was 0.967 and specificity 0.940,with an AUC of 0.983.In the diagnosis of sepsis severity degree,at the optimal expression cutoff miR-146a value of 0.530,the sensitivity was 0.796 and specificity 0.986,with an AUC of 0.943.Conclusion miR-146a can be a potential marker in diagnosis of sepsis and severity degree .
