Expression changes and clinical significance of IRAK1 and TRAF6 in patients with septic shock / 国际检验医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the expression changes and clinical significance of interleukin-1 recep-tor-associated kinase 1(IRAK1)and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6(TRAF6)in patients with septic shock.Methods A total of 142 patients with septic shock admitted from November 2020 to No-vember 2022(septic shock group)were selected as the study subjects,and those who came to the hospital for physical examination during the same period were selected as the control group.Patients with septic shock were divided into survival group(100 cases)and death group(42 cases)according to their survival status after 28 days of hospitalization observation and treatment.The expression changes of IRAK1 and TRAF6 in pa-tients with septic shock were monitored at admission and after 2,4 and 6 days of treatment.The dynamic changes of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score and sequential organ failure assessment(SOFA)score were recorded.Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between IRAK1,TRAF6 and APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score in septic shock patients.The correlation be-tween IRAK1 and TRAF6 was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Logistic regression was used to ana-lyze the factors influencing survival status of patients with septic shock.The diagnostic value of IRAK1 and TRAF6 in survival of patients with septic shock was analyzed by the receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The relative expression levels of IRAK1 and TRAF6 in septic shock group were significantly lower than those in control group,and APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score were significantly higher than those in control group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Compared with admission,the relative expression levels of IRAK1 and TRAF6 in 2,4 and 6 days after treatment were significantly increased,while APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score were significantly decreased,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Compared with the death group,the relative expression levels of IRAK1 and TRAF6 in the survival group were higher at each corre-sponding time point,and the APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score were lower,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Correlation analysis showed that IRAK1 and TRAF6 were negatively correlated with APACHE Ⅱscores and SOFA scores in septic shock patients,while IRAK1 and TRAF6 were positively correlated(r=0.688,P＜0.05).IRAK1,TRAF6 and APACHE Ⅱ scores were independent risk factors for survival of septic shock patients(P＜0.05).The AUC of the combined diagnosis of IRAK1 and TRAF6 was significantly larger than that of IRAK1 alone(Z=2.044,P=0.041)and that of TRAF6 alone(Z=2.442,P=0.015).Conclusion The expression of IRAK1 and TRAF6 can evaluate the survival and prognosis of patients with septic shock.
