Expression and clinical significance of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1, soluble P-selectin and coagulation function in patients with infective endocarditis / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the expression and significance of T helper cell 17 (Th17), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and coagulation function in patients with infectious endocarditis(IE).Methods:From December 2016 to December 2018, IE patients in Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University who met the inclusion criteria were selected for cardiac surgery to analyze prospectively, 38 IE patients were selected as the observation group, and 30 healthy people were selected as the control group.The concentrations of serum Th17 related factors (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17 and IL-21), sICAM-1 and coagulation index(P selectin(sP-SLT)) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and the difference between the two groups were statistically analyzed.Results:The concentrations of serum IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17 and IL-21((29.88±6.49), (14.89±3.31), (21.89±3.01), (563.26±67.36) ng/L) in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group((16.56±4.11), (7.52±2.34), (12.91±1.01), (423.38±56.49) ng/L)(all P<0.05). The level of serum sICAM-1 and sP-SLT ((1 247.57(581.39, 1 794.66) μg/L, (60.29±6.61) mg/L)in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group((837.28(405.68, 954.47) μg/L, (27.37±5.56) mg/L), and the difference was statistically significant( Z=12.37, t=22.30, all P<0.05). The level of serum IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17 and IL-21 in patients with postoperative infective endocarditis((16.19±4.07), (7.73±2.40), (13.83±0.94), (425.33±52.12) ng/L) were significantly lower than those before operation((29.88±6.49), (14.89±2.31), (21.89±3.01), (563.26±67.36) ng/L), and the differences were statistically significant(t values were 11.02, 13.25, 15.76, 9.98, all P<0.05). The levels of sICAM-1 and sP-SLT1 in patients with postoperative infective endocarditis((901.46(472.15, 1276.58) μg/L, (30.70±5.31) mg/L) were significantly lower than those before operation((1 057.26±463.06) μg/L, (60.29±6.61) mg/L)and the differences were statistically significant( Z=11.16, t=21.51, P<0.05). Conclusion:Th17 related factors, sICAM-1 and sP-SLT were highly expressed in IE patients, and the concentrations of these factors decreased after operation, suggesting that the above factors may be used as related factors for the diagnosis and prognosis of IE patients.
