Abstract:
Objective To explore the correlation between the test panel of serum CC chemokine ligand 3(CCL3),soluble podoplanin(sPDPN),fatty acid-binding protein 5(FABP5)and the severity of lung injury and clinical outcomes in children with severe pneumonia.Methods A total of 168 children with severe pneumonia who visited our hospital from January 2022 to January 2023 were included in this study as severe group.The patients were assigned to good outcome group(137 cases)or poor outcome group(31 cases)based on their prognosis.Additional 80 children with mild or moderate pneumonia were treated as non-severe group.In addition,80 children who underwent health checkup were included as control group.Baseline data such as body mass index and duration of disease were observed and recorded for all children.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect the expression levels of C-reactive protein(CRP),procalcitonin(PCT),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),CCL3,sPDPN,and FABP5 in the serum of all children.The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score and Lung Injury Prediction(LIPS)score were rated to evaluate the degree of lung injury.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of various factors on the poor outcome of children with severe pneumonia.Spearman correlation was applied to analyze the correlation between the expression levels of CCL3,sPDPN,FABP5 and poor outcome,the severity of lung injury,APACHE Ⅱ score,and LIPS score in children with severe pneumoniae.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the diagnostic value of CCL3,sPDPN,and FABP5 expression levels for poor outcome in children with severe pneumonia.Z-test was used to compare the differences in area under the curve(AUC).Results The baseline data such as duration of disease,body mass index,age,and sex did not show significant differences among the control group,non-severe group,and severe group(P＞0.05).The levels of serum CRP,PCT,IL-6,TNF-α,CCL3,sPDPN increased,while the level of FABP5 decreased gradually from the control group to non-severe group,and severe group(P＜0.05).The patients with poor outcomes showed higher serum levels of CRP,PCT,IL-6,TNF-α,CCL3,sPDPN,APACHE Ⅱ score,and LIPS score but lower FABP5 level compared to the patients with good outcomes(P＜0.05).TNF-α,CCL3,sPDPN,APACHE Ⅱ,and LIPS scores were independent risk factors for poor outcomes in children with severe pneumonia,while FABP5 level was independent protective factor for poor outcomes in children with severe pneumonia(P＜0.05).The levels of CCL3 and sPDPN were positively correlated with APACHE Ⅱ score and LIPS score,while FABP5 was negatively correlated with APACHE Ⅱ score and LIPS score(P＜0.05).The AUC of CCL3,sPDPN,and FABP5 alone was 0.802,0.864,and 0.859 respectively for predicting poor prognosis in children with severe pneumonia.The test panel of CCL3+sPDPN+FABP5 was superior to CCL3,sPDPN,or FABP5 alone(Zcombination-CCL3=3.842,Zcombination-sPDPN=2.585,Zcombination-FABP5=2.957,P＜0.05).Conclusions The serum levels of CCL3 and sPDPN are positively correlated with the severity of lung injury,while FABP5 is negatively correlated with the severity of lung injury in children with severe pneumonia.The test panel of CCL3+sPDPN+FABP5 is valuable for predicting poor outcomes in children with severe pneumonia.
