The purpose of this study is to investigate the prognostic values of the serum levels of lipids in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) that required intensive care unit (ICU) admission.
Patients who had severe CAP that required ICU admission were included. Serum lipid level was collected on the days 1 and 7 of ICU stay. Clinical outcome, including length of ICU stay, hospital stay, and death, were monitored prospectively.
A total of 40 patients were enrolled in this study. Lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) were found in nonsurvival group on ICU admission day 7 (survivors vs nonsurvivors; mean HDL, 41.8 vs 13.0 mg/dL, P = .002; LDL, 62.3 vs 30.3 mg/dL, P = 0.006, respectively). High-density lipoprotein cholesterol level of less than or equal to 17 mg/dL on day 7 (odds ratio, 1.23) and LDL cholesterol level of less than or equal to 21 mg/dL on day 7 (odds ratio, 1.10) could be a predictor of hospital mortality. The mean change in levels of HDL cholesterol in nonsurvivors decreased significantly than those in survivors from days 1 to 7 (8.5 vs -17.4 mg/dL, P = .04) but not LDL cholesterol.
Decreased serum HDL cholesterol level from days 1 to 7 may be of prognostic value.
本研究旨在探讨需要入住重症监护病房(ICU)的重症社区获得性肺炎(CAP)患者血清脂质水平的预后价值。
纳入需要入住ICU的重症CAP患者。在入住ICU的第1天和第7天采集血清脂质水平。前瞻性监测临床结局,包括ICU住院时间、住院时间和死亡情况。
本研究共纳入40例患者。在入住ICU第7天时,非存活组的高密度脂蛋白(HDL)和低密度脂蛋白(LDL)水平较低(存活者与非存活者;平均HDL,41.8 vs 13.0 mg/dL,P = 0.002;LDL,62.3 vs 30.3 mg/dL,P = 0.006)。第7天高密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平小于或等于17 mg/dL(比值比,1.23)和第7天低密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平小于或等于21 mg/dL(比值比,1.10)可能是医院死亡率的预测指标。从第1天到第7天,非存活者的HDL胆固醇水平平均变化显著低于存活者(8.5 vs -17.4 mg/dL,P = 0.04),但LDL胆固醇水平没有显著差异。
第1天到第7天血清HDL胆固醇水平降低可能具有预后价值。
