Objective Atherosclerosis is widely accepted as a chronic inflammatory disease. Serum biomarkers for vulnerable plaques not only serve as diagnostic tools for the identification of patients with acute coro-nary syndrome, but also assist the identification of high-risk patients. However, the existing data are limited and conflicting. In the present study, we determined whether the plasma levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) are correlated with adverse cardiac outcomes in patients with ST-evaluate acute myocardial infarction (STEAMI) undergoing pri-mary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Effect of the plasma intedeukin-1β level on prognosis of patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction. Method This prospective single-center study included 96 patients with SIEAMI with onset < 12 h who underwent primary PCI, 271 patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP) and 148 control subjects without coronary artery disease who were consecutively admitted to hospital be-tween Mar, 2006 and Mar, 2008. Plasma IL-1β levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in all subjects. The patients with STEAMI were then followed prospectively for the occurrence of major adverse car-diac events (MACE) (including cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, heart failure, and cardio-genie shock) during hospitalization. We determined the association between IL-1β levels with the risk of MACE using multivariate logistic regression. Results Compared with the SAP patients and control subjects, patients with STEAMI had higher levels of IL-1β (P < 0.05). During hospitalization, 32 patients (33.3%) experienced MACE [23 males, 9 females; age: (75.44±13.45) years]. In the STEAMI patients, IL-1β was elevated in patients with MACE compared with patients without MACE (median [range]: 26.52 [12.010 to 155.244] pg/mL vs 2.157 [0.433 to 83.021] pg/mL; P < 0.01) by non-parameter analysis. Significant and positive correlations be-tween IL-1β and cardiac troponin-I (cTnI) (r = 0.353, P =0.004) were observed by Spearman's correlations analysis. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that IL-1β levels ≥20 pg/mL were significantly and in-dependently associated with MACE during hospitalization (odds ratio: 32.05; 95% confidence interval: 4.28 to 240.151; P =0.001). Conclusions The present study revealed that patients with STEAMI had elevated IL-1β levels on admission. The plasma IL- 1β level is an independent inflammatory predictor for in-hospital MACE in pa-tients with STEAMI undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of intensive care unit acquired weakness (ICUAW) in patients with sepsis, and to evaluate the predictive value of each risk factor for ICUAW.Methods:A case control study was conducted, 60 septic patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from October 20, 2020 to February 20, 2021 were enrolled. The patients were divided into two groups: sepsis ICUAW group and sepsis non-ICUAW group. The data of gender, age, body mass index (BMI), acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ) score, complications, mechanical ventilation, duration of ICUAW, length of stay in ICU, fasting blood glucose, blood lactic acid (Lac), procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, outcome, antimicrobial agent, glucocorticoid, sedatives and analgesics drugs and vasoactive drugs were collected. Risk factors were screened by univariate Logistic regression analysis, and odds ratio ( OR) was adjusted by multivariate binary logistic regression, P < 0.05 was considered as independent risk factors. Finally, the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to analyze the predictive value of independent risk factors. Results:The APACHEⅡ score of the sepsis ICUAW group was significantly higher than that of the sepsis non-ICUAW group (23.05±8.17 vs. 15.33±4.89, P < 0.05), the total length of stay in the ICU was significantly longer than that of the sepsis non-ICUAW group (days: 15.1±9.2 vs. 8.5±3.4, P < 0.05), the improvement rate of patients was significantly lower than that of the sepsis non-ICUAW group [45.0% (9/20) vs. 95.0% (38/40), P < 0.05]. After univariate Logistic regression and multicollinearity test analysis, 7 factors including APACHEⅡ score, average SOFA score, blood lactic acid, proportion of mechanical ventilation, sedatives and analgesics drugs, type of antibiotics and type of vasoactive drugs were included in the binary Logistic regression model [ OR: 1.21, 2.05, 2.26, 0.21, 1.54, 2.07, 1.38, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 1.09-1.35, 1.42-2.94, 1.12-4.57, 0.05-0.66, 1.03-2.29, 1.27-3.37, 0.96-2.00, all P < 0.05]. Hosmer-Lemchaw test P = 0.901, and the correct percentage of prediction was 85%, indicating good model fit. Multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis showed that APACHEⅡ score and average SOFA score were independent risk factors for the occurrence of ICUAW in septic patients (APACHEⅡscore: OR = 1.17, 95% CI was 1.004-1.376, P = 0.044; average SOFA score: OR = 1.86, 95% CI was 1.157-2.981, P = 0.01). ROC curve analysis showed that the mean value of APACHEⅡ score, average SOFA score and their combined detection had a certain predictive value for the occurrence of ICUAW in sepsis patients, areas under ROC curve (AUC) were 0.787, 0.881, 0.905, 95% CI was 0.646-0.928, 0.791-0.972, 0.828-0.982, all P < 0.05. When the cut-off value was 19.500, 6.225, 0.375, the sensitivity was 75%, 90%, 90%, and the specificity were 80%, 80%, 85%, respectively. Conclusion:APACHEⅡ score and average SOFA score can be used as independent risk factors for the occurrence of ICUAW in sepsis, and their combined predictive value is better than that of individual index.
