Objective:To analyze the effect of lung protective ventilation on lung ventilation function and serum Clara cell protein 16 (CC16) level in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 80 gynecological patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery in Yancheng City Jianhu County People′s Hospital from October 2018 to December 2020 were randomly divided into group A and group B by random number table, each group with 40 cases. The patients in group A were treated with intermittent positive-pressure ventilation, and the patients in group B were ventilated with whole course ventilation mode. The pulmonary ventilation function, CC16 level and postoperative pulmonary complications were observed before anesthesia, 10 min of pneumoperitoneum, 30 min of pneumoperitoneum, 5 min of pneumoperitoneum stop and 2 h after operation. The patients were divided into groups according to whether with pulmonary complications, and their pulmonary ventilation function and serum CC16 level were compared. The predictive value of the above indexes for pulmonary complications was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:Repeated measurement analysis of variance showed that alveolar arterial oxygen differential pressure (PA-aDO 2) were significant differences in time point factors, time point interaction factors and group factors ( P<0.05); CC16 index were significant differences in time point factor and group factor ( P<0.05). According to the observation from postoperative to discharge, 4 patients (10.0%) in group A had pulmonary complications, 15 cases (37.5%) had pulmonary complications in group B, the levels of PA-aDO 2 and CC16 in patients with complications were significantly higher than those in patients without complications: group A:(332.9 ± 2.0) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) vs. (290.4 ± 13.2) mmHg, (53.5 ± 1.5) μg/L vs. (39.5 ± 6.5) μg/L; group B: (339.1 ± 8.8) mmHg vs. (305.7 ± 17.9) mmHg, (41.5 ± 4.2) μg/L vs. (39.7 ± 5.8) μg/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC) of PA-aDO 2 and CC16 in predicting pulmonary complications in group A were 0.882 and 0.833, in group B was 0.885 and 0.731. Conclusions:Lung protective ventilation has little effect on lung ventilation function and serum CC16 in patients with gynecological laparoscopic surgery, and the probability of pulmonary complications is lower. The pulmonary ventilation function and CC16 have certain value in predicting postoperative pulmonary complications.

Progress in diagnosis and treatment of CC16 in children pulmonary disease / 国际儿科学杂志

Clara cell secretory protein 16(CC16)is one of the most important secreted proteins of Clara cells in respiratory epithelium, which mainly exists in the lining fluid of lung epithelial cells.When the bronchoalveolus-capillary membrane barrier is damaged, a large amount of CC16 will enter the blood.It′s eventually excreted in the urine.In recent years, more and more studies have found that CC16 not only has anti-inflammatory, immune-modulating, anti-oxidation and anti-fibrosis effects, but also is a sensitive indicator of the integrity of the airway epithelium, which can predict the occurrence and development of many children′s pulmonary diseases.This article mainly summarizes the biological characteristics and functions of CC16, and summarizes the research progress of CC16 in the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric pulmonary diseases.

The relationship between the expression of serum IL-18 mRNA, CC16, and sTREM-1 and the severity and prognosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia in elderly patients.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to explore the relationship between the severity and prognosis of elderly patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and the expression of serum interleukin-18 mRNA (IL-18 mRNA), Clara cell secretory protein 16 (CC16) and the soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1). METHODS: The patients were divided into a VAP group (n=75) and a non-VAP group (n=110). According to the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHEII) score, the patients with VAP were divided into a low-risk group, an intermediate-risk group and a high-risk group. According to the 28-day outcome, the patients were divided into a survival group and a death group. Serum levels of IL-18, CC16 and sTREM-1 were detected, and their value in the prediction and prognosis of VAP was analyzed using a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. RESULTS: Serum levels of IL-18 and sTREM-1 in the VAP group were higher than those in the non-VAP group, while CC16 levels were lower in the VAP group than those in the non-VAP group (P<0.05). Serum levels of IL-18 and sTREM-1 decreased in order from the high-risk group to the intermediate-risk group to the low-risk group, while CC16 levels increased in order (P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the Youden index and AUC of combined diagnosis of VAP with serum IL-18 mRNA, CC16 and sTREM-1 were 0.710 and 0.930, which were higher than those of single diagnosis (P<0.05). Serum levels of IL-18 mRNA and sTREM-1 in the survival group were lower than those in the death group, and the CC16 level was higher than that in the death group (P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the Youden index and AUC of combined diagnosis with serum IL-18 mRNA, CC16 and sTREM-1 were 0.506 and 0.731, which were higher than those of single diagnosis (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The combination of these 3 factors is of high value in predicting the severity and prognosis of VAP and can provide reference for clinical treatment.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of changes of serum Clara cell secretory protein(CC16) and pulmonary surfactant protein A(SP-A) in neonates with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods:The data of 30 neonates with ARDS who needed mechanical ventilation in neonatal intensive care unit of Xi′an Children′s Hospital from January 2016 to November 2018 were collected as observation group, including 12 cases in mild group, 10 cases in moderate group and 8 cases in severe group.The data of healthy newborns during the same period were taken as control group.The serum levels of CC16 and SP-A were detected by ELISA.The serum levels of CC16 and SP-A among different groups were compared.Results:The levels of serum CC16 and SP-A in ARDS group were (59.35±3.67)mg/L and(75.38±6.27)mg/L respectively, (11.26±1.32)mg/L and(18.15±2.69)mg/L in healthy group.The difference was significant( P<0.05). And the differences of serum CC16 and SP-A levels among different degree ARDS groups were significant( P<0.05). The levels of serum CC16 in mild, moderate and severe subgroup were(38.27±16.01)mg/L, (51.25±15.63)mg/L, (84.76±13.12)mg/L and SP-A were(47.02±7.18)mg/L, (73.12±7.98)mg/L, (96.45±12.50)mg/L, which increased with disease severity. Conclusion:Serum CC16 and SP-A are increased and correlated with the severity of neonatal ARDS, which may be used as the index for evaluating the severity of neonatal ARDS in the future.

Reduced Serum Concentration of CC16 Is Associated with Severity of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Contributes to the Diagnosis and Assessment of the Disease.

Background: The aim of this study was to reveal the correlations between serum concentration of Clara cell secretory protein (CC16) and clinical parameters of stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Patients and Methods: Serum concentration of CC16 was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The correlations between serum concentration of CC16 and clinical parameters was performed by linear correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. The sensitivity and specificity of serum CC16 for differential diagnosis of COPD were determined by receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC). Results: The serum concentration of CC16 was down-regulated in stable COPD patients compared with healthy control group (p < 0.05). The decreased serum CC16 was negatively related to smoking (p < 0.05), GOLD grading (p < 0.005), mMRC score (p < 0.05) and medical history (p < 0.05) of patients, but positively correlated with pulmonary function (p < 0.05). The smoking, FEV1/FVC values, COPD grading and mMRC scores all affected the concentration of CC16 (p < 0.05). The decreased CC16 was an independent risk factor in the process of deterioration of lung function. The sensitivity and specificity of serum CC16 for identifying COPD reached to 65.3% and 75%. Conclusion: Decreased serum concentration of CC16 correlated with the disease progression of COPD, suggesting that it can be used as an indicator contributing to the diagnosis and assessment of COPD.

Determination of Clara cell secretory protein 16 and pulmonary surfactant protein D in children with severe pneumonia and its clinical significance / 临床儿科杂志

Objective To explore the changes of serum Clara cell secretory protein 16 (CC16), pulmonary surfactant protein D (SP-D) in children with pneumonia and its clinical significance. Methods A total of 81 pediatric patients with community-acquired pneumonia were selected, including severe pneumonia with mechanical ventilation group (n=21), severe pneumonia with non-mechanical ventilation group (n=30), mild pneumonia group (n=30), and the control group (n=20) was selected in the physical examination of healthy children over the same period. We detected the concentration of serum CC16, TNF-α, IL-6 and SP-D for the 4 groups by ELISA, and evaluated the clinical values of serum CC16, TNF-α, IL-6 and SP-D for severe pneumonia by using ROC curve.We recorded pulmonary dynamic compliance(Cdyn),airway resistance(Raw),peak inspiratory pressure (PIP), work of breathing (WOB) and other respiratory mechanical parameters, and analyzed the correlations between CC16 and TNF-α, IL-6, SP-D and respiratory mechanical parameters. Results The concentrations of serum CC16 in pneumonia group were all significantly lower than that in the control group, and those in severe pneumonia groups were lower than that in mild pneumonia group, and mechanical ventilation group was lower than that in non-mechanical ventilation; the concentration of serum TNF-α, IL-6 and SP-D in pneumonia groups were all obviously higher than that in the control group, and severe pneumonia group were higher than that in mild pneumonia group, and those in mechanical ventilation group were also higher than that in non-mechanical ventilation group (P<0.05). Compared to that before removing the ventilator, concentration of serum CC16 in severe pneumonia with mechanical ventilation group decreased significantly at 1 hour and lowered down at 72 hours; but the concentration of serum TNF-α, IL-6 and SP-D in severe pneumonia with mechanical ventilation increased significantly at 1 hour and went higher at 72 hours, the differences were all statistically significant (all of P<0.05); compared to that before weaning from the ventilator, the value of Cdyn decreased obviously in severe pneumonia with mechanical ventilation at 72 hours and lowered down at 1 hour; but the values of Raw, PIP, WOB in severe pneumonia with mechanical ventilation increased obviously at 72 hours and more higher at 1 hour, the differences were all statistically significant (all of P<0.05). The concentration of serum CC16 showed all negative correlations with TNF-α, IL-6 and SP-D, but it showed positive correlation with Cdyn(all of P<0.01).In the ROC curve,the area under the ROC curve of CC16,TNF-α,IL-6 and SP-D in serum was 0.905, 0.704, 0.832, 0.825, respectively (for all of which P<0.01). Conclusion The concentrations of serum CC16 and SP-D were associated with the severity of community acquired-pneumonia in children. The level of serum CC16 was positive associated with Cdyn in children with mechanical ventilation. CC16 has better prediction and evaluation effect on the change of severe pneumonia.

Environmental tobacco smoke exposure, urine CC-16 levels, and asthma outcomes among Chinese children.

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown the relationship between club cell secretory protein (Clara) (CC-16) and respiratory diseases. However, few studies have explored the associations between urine CC-16 levels and environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure in children. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether ETS exposure is associated with CC-16 when stratified by asthma status. METHODS: In our study, CC-16 was measured on 537 children aged 9-15 from northeast China in 2011-2012 using the Human Clara Cell Protein ELISA kits. Doctor-diagnosed asthma was defined as having ever been diagnosed with asthma by a physician. The relationship between ETS exposure and urine CC-16 level was assessed using linear regression. RESULTS: When stratified by asthma status, a negative association between ETS exposure and urine CC-16 was observed after adjusting for the effects of the related covariates, with an adjusted ß coefficient [P value] = -0.31 [0.006] in the first 2 years of life and with an adjusted ß coefficient [P value] = -0.68 [0.004] in the first 2 years of life and current. CONCLUSIONS: Our study shows long-term exposure to ETS was associated with urinary CC-16 among children without asthma.
