Résumé
Objective To comparatively analyze the difference and characteristics of high mobility group box-1 protein(HMGB1) level with the levels in the patients with different severities of acute biliary tract infection (ABTI) to provide reference for its clinical diagnosis and treatment .Methods One hundred cases of ABTI in our hospital were divided into the mild group (48 cases) ,moder-ate group (29 cases) and severe group (23 cases) according to the severity of the disease .The HMGB1 detection results were com-pared among 3 groups and the differences in different disease types ,sex and age were analyzed .Results (1)The HMGB1 level had statistically significant difference among 3 groups (P0 .05) ,but in the severe group ,the HMGB1 level in males was significantly higher than that in females (P 0 .05) ,while in the moderate group and severe group ,the HMGB1 level in the patients aged > 60 years old was significantly higher than that in the patients aged ≤60 years old(P<0 .05);(4) in the above 3 groups ,the HMGB1 level in the patients with acute cholecystitis was signifi-cantly higher than that in the patients with acute cholangitis (P<0 .05) .Conclusion The study results analysis indicates that the severe the ABTI disease condition ,the serum HMGB1 level is also accordingly and relatively increased ,in the patients with different severity degrees of ABTI ,the serum HMGB1 level has significant differences in age ,sex and disease type ,which prompts that the HMGB1 level can be used as the laboratory index for predicting and reflecting the ABTI severity and can be paid attention to .
