Abstract:
Objective:To measure the predictive value of miR-424 on the risk of sepsis complicated with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS), and to explore its correlation with the prognosis of ARDS children.Methods:A prospective study was conducted.The data of children with sepsis (some complicated with ARDS), who were treated in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital (People′s Hospital, Zhengzhou University) were collected from February 2020 to February 2021.The incidence of ARDS and the fatality rate of ARDS children were recorded.Children were divided into survival group and death group according to whether death or not.The expression of miR-424 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells was detected by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Pearson correlation analysis was made to investigate the relationship between the expression level of miR-424 and Pediatric Critical Illness Score(PCIS), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(SOFA) score, oxygenation index(P/F ratio), C-reactive protein(CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and interleukin 8 (IL-8). The factors affecting the prognosis of ARDS children were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.Receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was used to assess the accuracy of miR-424 in early diagnosis of sepsis complicated with ARDS, and to measure the predicative value of miR-424 on the risk of death in sepsis patients with ARDS. Results:A total of 121 sepsis patients were included in this study, and 36 cases of them were complicated with ARDS.The expression level of miR-424(0.56±0.17)in the blood of sepsis patients complicated with ARDS was significantly lower than that of sepsis patients without ARDS (0.98±0.26)( t=8.776, P<0.001). The expression of miR-424 was negatively co-rrelated with IL-6( r=-0.627, P<0.01), IL-8 ( r=-0.651, P<0.01) and CRP( r=-0.472, P<0.05)in sepsis patients with ARDS.The expression of miR-424 was positively correlated with PCIS score( r=0.330, P<0.05), P/F ratio ( r=0.592, P<0.001) and albumin ( r=0.496, P<0.05) in sepsis patients with ARDS.The ROC showed that miR-424 [area under curve(AUC)=0.908, 95% CI: 0.856-0.960] could differentiate sepsis patients with ARDS from those without ARDS.Compared with that of the survival group(0.63±0.15), miR-424 of the death group decreased significantly(0.42±0.14)( t=3.890, P<0.05). The decreased miR-424 (AUC=0.845, 95% CI: 0.696-0.995)indicated an increased risk of death in children with ARDS.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that miR-424( OR=0.001, P=0.033)and albumin ( OR=0.553, P=0.040) were independent risk factors for death in ARDS children. Conclusions:miR-424 can help with early diagnosis of sepsis complicated with ARDS, and can be used as a predictor of the prognosis of sepsis children complicated with ARDS.
