Abstract:
Objective To investigate the characteristics of gut microbiota dysbosis in septic and non-septic patients in ICU.Methods A prospective observational research was conducted.Ten septic patients(septic group),ten patients without sepsis(non-septic group) were admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine of General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from February 2017 to June 2017 were enrolled.And ten healthy persons was enrolled as control group.Stool samples were collected from septic and non-septic patients within two days following admission to the intensive care unit (ICU);healthy persons' was random.High throughput 16S rRNA gene sequencing technology was used to detect fecal bacterium of three groups.Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score,Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score of patients were recorded on the first day after admission to ICU.Results Compared with the control group,the α diversity of gut microbiota in non-septic and septic groups showed a downward trend,the [3 diversity showed that the structure of gut microbiota in non-septic and the septic groups was significant different,and the individual differences were more obvious.At the level of phylum,compared with the control group,the proportion of Firmicutes+Bacteroidetes in non-septic and septic groups decreased significantly(P=0.013,0.028),and the proportion of Proteobacteria increased(P=0.017,0.026),while the proportion of Fusobacteria just increased in the non-septic group(P < 0.01).At the level of genus,compared with the control group,the proportion of beneficial symbiotic genus in non-septic and septic groups can be seen decreased,such as Ruminococcus(P=0.045,0.026),Pseudobutyrivibrio(P=0.009,< 0.01),Anaerostipes(P=0.011,0.003),Coprococcus(P=0.045,0.011),Phascolarctobacterium(P=0.008,0.022),Subdoligranulum(P=0.006,0.026).The proportion of Lactobacillus,Dorea,Faecalibacterium,Roseburia and Blautia showed downward trend in non-septic and septic groups,but only the decline of Lactobacillus in non-septic group had statistical difference(P=0.005),and the decline of Dorea,Faecalibacterium,Roseburia and Blautia in septic group had statistical differences(P=0.037,0.038,0.002 and 0.017,respectively).The proportion of conditional pathogenic Fusobacterium,Actinomyces,Peptstreptococcus,Streptococcus increased in non-septic group(P=0.001,0.019,0.011 and 0.014,respectively),the proportion of pathogenic Staphylococcus(P=0.035,0.006),Enterococcus(P=0.001,0.001),Anaerococcus(P=0.006,0.006) and Bacillus(both P < 0.01) increased in non-septic and septic groups.Conclusions Gut microbiota dysbiosis occured in septic and non-septic patients in the ICU,and showed that diversity decreased,structure of intestinal flora changed,obligate anaerobic bacteria decreased,facultative anaerobic bacteria increased,benefical symbiotic bacteria decreased,pathogenic bacteria increased and can be the dominate genus.
