Early diagnosis of Severity Mycoplasma Pneumoniae Pneumonia (SMPP) has been a worldwide concern in clinical practice. Two cytokines, soluble Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells (sTREM-1) and Interferon-Inducible Protein-10 (IP-10), were proved to be implicated in bacterial infection diseases. However, the diagnostic value of sTREM-1 and IP-10 in MPP was poorly known. This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of sTREM-1 and IP-10 for SMPP.
In this prospective study, the authors enrolled 44 children with MPP, along with their clinical information. Blood samples were collected, and cytokine levels of sTREM-1 and IP-10 were detected with ELISA assay.
Serum levels of sTREM-1 and IP-10 were positively correlated with the severity of MPP. In addition, sTREM-1 and IP-10 have significant potential in the diagnosis of SMPP with an Area Under Curve (AUC) of 0.8564 (p-value = 0.0001, 95% CI 0.7461 to 0.9668) and 0.8086 (p-value = 0.0002, 95% CI 0.6918 to 0.9254) respectively. Notably, the combined diagnostic value of sTREM-1 and IP-10 is up to 0.911 in children with SMPP (p-value < 0.001, 95% CI 0.830 to 0.993).
Serum cytokine levels of sTREM-1 and IP-10 have a great potential diagnostic value in children with SMPP.
重症支原体肺炎(SMPP)的早期诊断一直是临床实践中全球关注的问题。两种细胞因子,即髓系细胞表面表达的可溶性触发受体(sTREM-1)和干扰素诱导蛋白10(IP-10),已被证明与细菌感染性疾病有关。然而,sTREM-1和IP-10在支原体肺炎(MPP)中的诊断价值鲜为人知。本研究旨在探讨sTREM-1和IP-10对SMPP的诊断价值。
在这项前瞻性研究中,作者纳入了44例MPP患儿及其临床信息。采集血样,采用酶联免疫吸附测定法检测sTREM-1和IP-10的细胞因子水平。
sTREM-1和IP-10的血清水平与MPP的严重程度呈正相关。此外,sTREM-1和IP-10在SMPP诊断中具有显著潜力,曲线下面积(AUC)分别为0.8564(p值 = 0.0001,95%置信区间0.7461至0.9668)和0.8086(p值 = 0.0002,95%置信区间0.6918至0.9254)。值得注意的是,sTREM-1和IP-10联合诊断价值在SMPP患儿中高达0.911(p值 < 0.001,95%置信区间0.830至0.993)。
sTREM-1和IP-10的血清细胞因子水平在SMPP患儿中具有很大的潜在诊断价值。
