Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression levels of serum integrin αMβ2(ITG αMβ2)and gasdermin D(GSDMD)in patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)complicated with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)and the severity of the disease and its value in predicting prognosis.Methods A total of 147 patients with SAP complicated with ARDS(ARDS group)admitted to the Department of Intensive Care Medicine of the Southwest Jiaotong University Affiliated Hospital(Chengdu Third People's Hospital)from August 2021 to October 2023 were selected.According to the oxygenation index(OI),they were divided into mild group(n=35),moderate group(n=46)and severe group(n=66).According to the 28-day prognosis,they were divided into death group(n=77)and survival group(n=70).Another 147 SAP patients without ARDS at the same time period were selected(non-ARDS group).The expression levels of serum ITG αMβ2 and GSDMD were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between serum ITG αMβ2,GSDMD expression levels and OI in patients with SAP complicated with ARDS.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the factors of death in patients with SAP complicated with ARDS.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the value of serum ITG αMβ2,GSDMD expression levels in evaluating the death of patients with SAP complicated with ARDS.Results Compared with the non-ARDS group,the expression levels of serum ITG αMβ2(31.95±8.17 ng/L vs 53.33±12.22 ng/L)and GSDMD(2.25±0.55 ng/ml vs 4.39±1.18 ng/ml)in the ARDS group were increased,and the differences were statistically significant(t=17.637,19.899,all P<0.05).The expression levels of serum ITG αMβ2 and GSDMD in mild group,moderate group and severe group increased in turn,and the differences were statistically significant(F=163.069,194.028,all P<0.05).The expression levels of serum ITG αMβ2 and GSDMD were negatively correlated with OI in patients with SAP complicated with ARDS(r=-0.787,-0.778,all P<0.05).The 28-day mortality rate of 147 SAP patients with ARDS was 52.38%(77/147).Compared with the survival group,the expression levels of serum ITG αMβ2(46.96±10.28 ng/L vs 59.11±10.94 ng/L)and GSDMD(3.74±0.98 ng/ml vs 4.98±1.04 ng/ml)in the death group were increased,and the differences were statistically significant(t=6.920,7.415,all P<0.05).The number of extrapulmonary organ failure≥2,prolonged mechanical ventilation time,increased acute physiological and chronic health assessment II score,and increased ITG αMβ2.and GSDMD were independent risk factors for death in SAP patients complicated with ARDS(Wald χ2=4.297～13.536,all P<0.05),and increased OI was an independent protective factor(Wald χ2=8.346,P<0.05).The combined evaluation AUC of serum ITG αMβ2 and GSDMD expression levels results in a larger area under the curve(AUC)for mortality in SAP patients with ARDS compared to the individual evaluation of SAP complicated with ARDS,which was greater than serum ITG αMβ2 and GSDMD expression levels alone,and the differenes were statistically significant(Z=3.517,3.430,all P<0.05).Conclusion The increase of serum ITG αMβ2 and GSDMD expression levels is related to the progression and poor prognosis of patients with SAP complicated with ARDS.The combined monitoring of serum ITG αMβ2 and GSDMD expression levels has a high evaluation value for the risk of death in patients with SAP complicated with ARDS.
