Objective ·To detect the serum levels of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) in patients with multiple injuries at different time points, and to analyze their correlation with disease severity, complications and prognosis. Methods ·Ninety-two patients with multiple injuries admitted to the Department of Emergency Medicine of the Suzhou Ninth People′s Hospital from December 2020 to December 2022 were selected. According to the injury severity scores of the patients at admission, the patients were divided into light injury group (n=24), grave injury group (n=58) and severe injury group (n=10). According to whether there was multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) after admission, the patients were divided into MODS group (n=20) and non-MODS group (n=72). According to the outcome within 28 d after trauma, the patients were divided into death group (n=13) and survival group (n=79). Inflammatory factor indicators in venous blood of patients after admission were detected. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the serum HMGB1 and sTREM-1 levels at 24 h, 72 h and 7 d after trauma, and the differences of serum HMGB1 and sTREM-1 levels among different groups were analyzed. Multiple Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of adverse outcomes in patients with multiple injuries. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of HMGB1 and sTREM-1 for adverse outcomes. Results ·The levels of HMGB1 and sTREM-1 in the grave injury and severe injury groups were significantly higher than those in the light injury group (P<0.05). The levels of HMGB1 at 72 h and 7 d, and sTREM-1 at 24 h and 72 h in the severe injury group were significantly higher than those in the grave injury group (P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between HMGB1 and sTREM-1 levels at various time points (r=0.645, r=0.942, r=0.722; all P<0.05). The levels of HMGB1 at 72 h and 7 d, and sTREM-1 at 24 h and 72 h in the MODS group were significantly higher than those in the non-MODS group (all P<0.05). The levels of HMGB1 at 72 h and 7 d, and sTREM-1 at 24 h and 72 h in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that HMGB1 at 7 d, admission time and hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were independent factors of adverse outcomes in patients with multiple injuries (all P<0.05). The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of HMGB1 for predicting poor prognosis at 7 days after trauma was 0.890, the sensitivity was 83.5%, and the specificity was 92.3%. Conclusion ·The levels of HMGB1 and sTREM-1 are correlated with MODS and survival outcomes in patients with multiple injuries at different time points after trauma, and HMGB1 at 7 d after trauma is an independent factor affecting adverse outcomes in patients with multiple injuries.

Changes of serum high mobility group box 1 and soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 in patients with multiple injuries and their prognostic significance. Journal of Shanghai Jiao Tong University (Medical Science)[J], 2024, 44(3): 350-357 doi:10.3969/j.issn.1674-8115.2024.03.007
多发伤指由1个致病因素导致2个及以上组织或器官的创伤,具有创伤程度重、病情变化快及易进展等特点,患者死亡风险较高[1-2]。准确评估病情的严重程度及预后,并进行合理临床决策,是降低并发症和死亡率、改善患者预后的关键。研究[3-4]证实,多发伤患者存在全身性的炎症水平升高,且与多发伤病情进展有关。高迁移率族蛋白B1(high mobility group box 1,HMGB1)是革兰阴性菌脂多糖、白介素和肿瘤坏死因子α(tumor necrosis factor α,TNF-α)等刺激巨噬细胞后产生的一种蛋白质,是重要的晚期炎症介质之一[5]。可溶性髓样细胞触发受体-1(soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1,sTREM-1)是近年来发现的炎症反应激发受体,也被证实在炎症触发和放大过程中具有重要意义[6]。目前有证据[7]显示,HMGB1与sTREM-1具有相关性。同时还有研究[8-9]发现,多发伤患者HMGB1及sTREM-1水平明显升高,且HMGB1及sTREM-1高水平患者预后较差。但关于多发伤患者创伤发生后不同时间点HMGB1和sTREM-1水平变化及其与病情严重程度、并发症及死亡的相关性研究尚不多见,相关结论也不够明确。因此,本研究通过检测多发伤患者创伤发生后24 h、72 h及7 d时的血清HMGB1及TREM-1水平,分析患者HMGB1及sTREM-1变化与病情严重程度、并发症及死亡的相关性,以期为患者病情判断、预后评估及干预措施的研究提供依据,从而辅助临床合理决策,改善患者预后。
患者入院后立即行ISS评分及格拉斯哥昏迷评分(Glasgow coma score,GCS)评估。ISS评分:将人体划分为头颈部、面部、胸部、腹部、四肢/骨盆、体表6个部分,每个部分得分按照简明损伤评分(abbrebiated injury scale,AIS)计算(1~5分);取评分最高的3个AIS值的平方和即为ISS分值,最高75分。GCS评分:依据睁眼反应、语言反应、运动反应的不同情况进行评分和分级,最高15分。
