Abstract:
Objective To explore the correlation between the expression level of secreted curl associated protein 5(SFRP5)and the condition and prognosis of patients with severe pneumonia.Methods A total of 168 patients with pneumonia admitted to the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of this hospital from June 2022 to June 2024 were selected as the research subjects,and 78 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations in this hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.According to the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score,the patients were di-vided into the common pneumonia group(APACHE Ⅱ score<15,n=82)and the severe pneumonia group(APACHE Ⅱ score≥ 15,n=86).Peripheral venous blood was collected from the three groups after fasting for 8 to 12 hours and peripheral blood mononuclear cells were extracted by centrifuging.Real-time fluores-cence quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression level of SFRP5 mRNA in peripheral blood mononu-clear cells,which was Used to determine the expression level of SFRP5.Pearson analysis was used to analyze the correlations between the expression level of SFRP5 and the levels of inflammatory factors,pulmonary function indices and the condition in patients with severe pneumonia.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency of the expression level of SFRP5 for the prognosis of patients with severe pneumonia.Results There were also significant differences in the levels of WBC,C re-active protein(CRP),procalcitonin(PCT),interleukin(IL)-6,and IL-8 among the three groups(P<0.05),with the highest levels observed in the severe pneumonia group and the lowest in the control group.There were significant differences in the levels of forced expiratory volume in the first second(FEV1),forced vital capacity(FVC),and FEV1/FVC among the three groups(P<0.05),with the highest levels observed in the severe pneumonia group and the lowest in the control group.The expression level of SFRP5 in the severe pneumonia group was the lowest(0.46±0.13),followed by the common pneumonia group(0.78±0.15),and the control group was the highest level(1.23±0.22),with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the expression level of SFRP5 in patients with severe pneu-monia was negatively correlated with the levels of WBC,CRP,PCT,IL-6,IL-8,and the APACHE Ⅱ score(P<0.05),and positively correlated with the levels of FEV1,FVC,and FEV1/FVC(P<0.05).The area un-der the curve(AUC)of the expression level of SFRP5 for predicting poor prognosis in patients with severe pneumonia was 0.843(95%CI:0.748-0.912),with a sensitivity of 68.18%and a specificity of 89.06%.Conclusion The expression level of SFRP5 is related to the condition of patients with severe pneumonia,and SFRP5 can predict the prognosis of patients with severe pneumonia.
