Abstract
Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) frequently accompanies early postoperative period after cardiac surgery and in some cases is complicated by multiple organ failure (MOF). Inherited variation in the innate immune response genes (e.g., TREM1) is among the major factors determining the development of SIRS and the risk of MOF. This research was aimed to study whether the polymorphisms within the TREM1 gene are associated with MOF after the coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Here we enrolled 592 patients who underwent CABG surgery in the Research Institute for Complex Issues of Cardiovascular Diseases (Kemerovo, Russia) and documented 28 cases of MOF. Genotyping was performed by allele-specific PCR using TaqMan probes. In addition, we measured serum soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Five polymorphisms (rs1817537, rs2234246, rs3804277, rs7768162 andrs4711668) within the TREM1 gene were significantly associated with MOF. Patients with MOF had higher serum sTREM-1 as compared with those without MOF at both pre- and post-intervention stages. Serum sTREM-1 was associated with the rs1817537,rs2234246 and rs3804277 polymorphisms within the TREM1 gene. Minor alleles within the TREM1 gene define the level of serum sTREM-1 and are associated with MOF after CABG surgery.

Diagnostic and prognostic predictive values of circulating sTREM-1 in sepsis: A meta-analysis. INFECTION GENETICS AND EVOLUTION 2021; 96:105074. [PMID: 34506956 DOI: 10.1016/j.meegid.2021.105074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2021] [Revised: 08/23/2021] [Accepted: 09/03/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND With the increasing studies regarding the diagnostic value of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (sTREM)-1 in sepsis in recent years, it is essential to make an updated meta-analysis to explore the sepsis differentiation value of circulating sTREM-1 from systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). Recently, no meta-analysis was made to explore the prognostic predictive value of circulating sTREM-1 in sepsis. Thus, the present aimed to make meta-analyses to explore the diagnostic and prognostic predictive values of circulating sTREM-1 in sepsis. METHODS Articles published before March 2021 were searched in databases: PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, Medline and Google Scholar. After a summary of sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratios (PLR), negative likelihood ratios (NLR), and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), the receive-operating characteristics (SROC) curve were performed to summarize true positive (TP) and false positive (FP) rates. Q test and I2 were used to explore heterogeneity between studies. RESULTS Circulating sTREM-1 showed a high sensitivity (0.85 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.76-0.91)) and moderate specificity (0.79 (95% CI: 0.70-0.86)) to differentiate sepsis from SIRS. The study showed a high sensitivity (0.80 (95% CI: 0.66-0.89)) and moderate specificity (0.75 (95% CI: 0.69-0.81)) to predict 28-day mortality in sepsis. CONCLUSION In conclusion, the present study suggested that circulating sTREM-1 showed diagnostic and prognostic predictive values in sepsis.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to explore the diagnostic role of sTREM1 in the diagnosis of sepsis and in differentiating between sepsis and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). We also aimed to assess the prognostic value of suPAR in comparison to sequential organ-failure assessment (SOFA), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE) II scores, and 28-day mortality. Methods This was a cross-sectional study conducted in the Medical Microbiology and Immunology Department and Central Research Laboratory, Faculty of Medicine, Sohag University from June 2019 to January 2021. The study population was classified into two groups: SIRS (no evidence of infection) and sepsis (with SIRS and evidence of infection). Patients were rated on the SOFA and APACHE II scoring systems at admission and after 7 days. Serum levels of sTREM1 and suPAR were measured by ELISA at the same time points. Results CRP and sTREM1 values were significantly higher in the sepsis group than the SIRS group on both days (P<0.0001). The area under the curve (AUC) for CRP was 0.87 on the first day and 0.97 on the seventh, while the AUC for sTREM1 was 1.00 and 0.93 on the first and seventh days, respectively. The sensitivity of sTREM1 was 100% and specificity 84% at a cutoff of 49 pg/mL. There was a significantly positive correlation between CRP and sTREM1 values (P<0.0001). On the seventh day, nonsurvivors had significantly higher serum levels of suPAR (median 4.9 ng/mL) than survivors (median 2.9 ng/mL; P<0.0001). Nonsurvivors also had significantly higher SOFA and APACHE II scores than survivors (P<0.0001 and P<0.0001, respectively). Conclusion sTREM1 can be used as a good indicator for diagnosing sepsis in intensive care–unit patients. suPAR can also be used as a predictor of bad prognosis and poor survival at 7 days following admission.

Role of soluble triggering receptor expressed in myeloid cells-1 in distinguishing SIRS, sepsis, and septic shock in the pediatric intensive care unit. Arch Pediatr 2021; 28:567-572. [PMID: 34393025 DOI: 10.1016/j.arcped.2021.06.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2020] [Revised: 12/14/2020] [Accepted: 06/13/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Research into new markers has been intensified for early diagnosis, prognosis, and differentiation of SIRS, sepsis, and septic shock in recent years. This study aimed to investigate the role of soluble triggering receptor expressed in myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) and interleukin (IL)-6 in distinguishing between systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), sepsis, and septic shock in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) patients. METHODS Between June 2014 and July 2015, 90 consecutive patients who were treated in the PICU were included in this prospective observational study. Patients were divided into four groups: control (n = 23), SIRS (n = 22), sepsis (n = 23), and septic shock (n = 22). All patients were evaluated for white blood cell (WBC), serum C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), IL-6, and sTREM-1 levels at 0, 24, and 72 h of admission. The prognostic evaluations were made using the Pediatric Risk of Mortality III (PRISM III) and Pediatric Logistic Organ Dysfunction (PELOD) scores. Patients were evaluated in terms of age, gender, prognosis, pathogen growth in culture, PRISM III and PELOD score, WBC, CRP, PCT, IL-6, and sTREM-1 levels and a comparison was made between groups. RESULTS There was no significant difference between all groups in terms of the 0-, 24-, and 72-h sTREM-1 values (p = 0.761, p = 0.360, and p = 0.822, respectively). CRP and PCT values did not differ between the septic shock, sepsis, and SIRS groups at 0, 24, and 72 h. In the septic shock group, the 0-h IL-6 value was significantly higher than that of the SIRS group (p = 0.025). The 24-h IL-6 value in the septic shock group was significantly higher than the values of the sepsis and SIRS groups (p = 0.048 and p = 0.043, respectively). No significant difference was detected between the septic shock, sepsis, and SIRS groups in terms of IL-6 values at 72 h. CONCLUSION sTREM-1 is not useful for the diagnosis of infection and for distinguishing between sepsis, septic shock, and SIRS since it does not offer a clear diagnostic value for PICU patients, unlike other reliable markers such as WBC, CRP, and PCT. Elevated IL-6 levels may indicate septic shock in PICU patients. More research on sTREM-1 is needed in this setting.

Abstract
The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (TREM-1) is an innate immunity receptor associated with the amplification of inflammation in sterile and non-sterile inflammatory disorders. Since its first description, the two isoforms of the receptor, membrane and soluble (mTREM-1 and sTREM-1, respectively) have been largely explored in the immunopathogenesis of several bacterial diseases and sepsis. The role of the receptor in these scenarios seems to be at least partly dependent on the source/type of bacteria, host and context. As uncontrolled inflammation is a result of several bacterial infections, the inhibition of the receptor has been considered as a promising approach to treat such conditions. Further, sTREM-1 has been explored as a biomarker for diagnosis and/or prognosis of several bacterial diseases. Therefore, this review aims to provide an updated insight into how the receptor influences and is influenced by bacterial infections, highlighting the advances regarding the use/manipulation of TREM-1 isoforms in biomedical research and clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Efficient and accurate diagnosis of neonatal sepsis is challenging. The potential impact for a reduction in morbidity and mortality as well as antibiotic usage has stimulated the ongoing search for biomarkers of early sepsis. The objective of this pilot study was to quantify the levels of sTREM-1 and correlate with blood cultures and inflammatory markers in neonates evaluated for sepsis. METHODS Neonates with suspected sepsis were enrolled (n = 83; Preterm n = 35; Term n = 48). Routine bloods for sepsis evaluation were included and plasma sTREM-1 levels were quantified by ELISA. RESULTS Term and preterm neonates (n = 83; Preterm n = 35; Term n = 48) were enrolled and 16 neonates had positive blood cultures (preterm n = 15; term n = 1). sTREM-1 levels were not significantly different in infants with culture-positive or culture-negative sepsis (356 ± 218 pg/mL and 385 ± 254 pg/mL respectively). The immature-to-total granulocyte (I/T) ratio showed a significant positive correlation with sTREM-1 in the preterm group with positive blood cultures. Additionally, sTREM-1 showed a positive correlation with CRP in the preterm group with negative blood cultures. CONCLUSIONS sTREM-1 was associated with traditional markers of inflammation (I/T ratio and CRP). However, in this cohort sTREM-1 did not improve the early detection of neonatal culture-positive sepsis.

Abstract
Background We aim to synthesize the up-to-date studies to investigate the diagnostic value of serum soluble triggering expressed receptor on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1) in suspected sepsis. Results A total of 19 studies with 2418 patients were finally enrolled in the meta-analysis. The pooled sensitivity was 0.82 (95% CI 0.73 to 0.89), specificity 0.81 (95% CI 0.75 to 0.86), positive likelihood ratio 4.3 (95% CI 3.02 to 6.12), negative likelihood ratio 0.22 (95% CI 0.24 to 0.35), diagnostic odds ratio 20 (95% CI 9 to 41) and AuROC 0.88 (95% CI 0.85 to 0.91). The meta-regression analysis revealed that the sample size, reference standard description, prevalence of sepsis in the trials and consecution of patient recruitment might be the source of heterogeneity. Conclusions The serum sTREM-1 had a moderate ability in diagnosis in suspected sepsis based on the current studies. However, more large-scale studies were needed to further evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of sTREM-1.

Abstract
Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1) is produced and up-regulated by exposure of myeloid cells to lipopolysaccharides or other components of either bacterial or fungal origin, which causes it to be strongly expressed on phagocytes that accumulate in inflamed areas. Because TREM-1 participates in septic shock and in amplifying the inflammatory response to bacterial and fungal infections, we believe it could be an immunohistochemical marker for postmortem diagnosis of sepsis. We tested the anti-TREM-1 antibody in 28 cases of death by septic shock and divided them into two groups. The diagnosis was made according to the criteria of the Surviving Sepsis Campaign. In all cases, blood cultures were positive. The first group was comprised subjects that presented high ante-mortem serum procalcitonin and the soluble form of TREM-1 (s-TREM-1) values. The second group comprised subjects in which s-TREM-1 was not measured ante-mortem. We used samples of brain, heart, lung, liver and kidney for each case to test the anti-TREM-1 antibody. A semiquantitative evaluation of the immunohistochemical findings was made. In lung samples, we found immunostaining in the cells of the monocyte line in 24 of 28 cases, which suggests that TREM-1 is produced principally by cells of the monocyte line. In liver tissue, we found low TREM-staining in the hepatocyte cytoplasm, duct epithelium, the portal-biliary space and blood vessel. In kidney tissue samples, we found the TREM-1 antibody immunostaining in glomeruli and renal tubules. We also found TREM-1 staining in the lumen of blood vessels. Immunohistochemical staining using the anti-TREM-1 antibody can be useful for postmortem diagnosis of sepsis.

Abstract
Background and aim Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM-1) is a receptor on phagocytes that is triggered by infectious agents. The soluble form of it (sTREM-1) can be elevated in gastric juice by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection of gastric mucosa. The aim of this study was to compare the diagnostic values of sTREM-1 and C-reactive protein (CRP) for detection of H. pylori infection in gastric mucosa. Methods In this diagnostic accuracy study on cases who underwent endoscopy from March 2015 to July 2016 in Shahid Beheshti Hospital, Kashan, Iran, gastric juice sTREM-1 and CRP concentrations were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and their diagnostic values were compared to detect H. pylori infection. Gold standard test was histopathology. Data were entered into SPSS software version 16. Statistical analysis was made by Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Chi-square, Independent-samples t-test, Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney U, Pearson product-moment correlation, Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), Brier score, Nagelkerke R square and scaled reliability test. Results Of a total of 160 cases, 81 (50.6%) were H. pylori-positive based on pathology. The level of sTREM-1 in H. pylori-positive patients was significantly higher than H. pylori-negative patients (p=0.000), but no significant difference between CRP concentrations was shown between groups (p=0.7). Sensitivity, specificity, positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio and accuracy of sTREM-1 were 82%, 75%, 3.3, 0.25, 78% and for CRP were 62%, 40%, 1.02, 0.98, 51% respectively for diagnosis of H. pylori infection. True positive and negative rates were 66 (81.5%) and 59 (74.7%) for sTREM-1 and 50 (61.7%) and 31 (39.2%) for CRP. The levels of sTREM-1 and CRP were not significantly different between endoscopic finding groups (p=0.97, p=0.2 respectively). Conclusion Despite CRP, sTREM-1 was a relatively acceptable indicator of H. pylori infection of gastric mucosa.

Abstract
Background: Major abdominal surgery, including colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery, leads to systemic inflammatory response syndrome that can be detected and monitored with inflammatory markers testing. The aims of the study were to evaluate the usefulness of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), procalcitonin (PCT), and C-reactive protein (CRP) in following the inflammatory response in CRC surgery and postoperative period, as well as to determine if duration of the surgery and the time that the colon has been opened during the surgery (open colon time [OCT]) reflect a larger surgical stress through inflammatory markers rise. Methods: The study included 20 patients who underwent CRC surgery and 19 healthy volunteers from June 2011 to September 2012. We determined inflammatory markers 1 day before surgery (T0), 24 h (T1), 48 h (T2), and 7 days after the surgery (T3). All statistical analyses were calculated using MedCalc Statistical Software version 14.8.1 (MedCalc Software bvba, Ostend, Belgium). Results: Concentrations of CRP, PCT, and IL-6 in all measurement times were statistically different and sTREM-1 did not yield statistical significance. A weak positive correlation was found between IL-6 in T1 and T2 with the duration of the surgery (T1: r = 0.4060, P < 0.0001; T2: r = 0.3430, P < 0.0001) and OCT (T1: r = 0.3640, P < 0.0001, T2: r = 0.3430, P < 0.0001). A weak positive correlation between CRP in T2 and OCT (r = 0.4210, P < 0.0001) was also found. The interconnectivity of tested parameters showed a weak positive correlation between CRP and IL-6 in T1 (r = 0.3680; P < 0.0001), moderate positive correlation in T2 (r = 0.6770; P < 0.0001), and a strong positive correlation in T3 (r = 0.8651; P < 0.0001). Conclusions: CRP, IL-6, and PCT were shown to be reliable for postoperative monitoring. Simultaneous determination of CRP and IL-6 might not be useful as they follow similar kinetics. sTREM-1 might not be useful in CRC postoperative monitoring.

Diagnostic value of sTREM-1 and procalcitonin levels in the early diagnosis of sepsis. North Clin Istanb 2017; 3:175-182. [PMID: 28275748 PMCID: PMC5336621 DOI: 10.14744/nci.2016.26023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2016] [Accepted: 12/20/2016] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sepsis is still major cause of morbidity and mortality, despite improvements in diagnosis and treatment in modern medicine. Therefore, laboratory examinations that provide correct and rapid results are needed to support the diagnosis. This study was conducted to investigate value of immunological indicators procalcitonin (PCT) and soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) in differential diagnosis of patients with sepsis and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), as well as to assess their importance in determining prognosis of patients with sepsis. METHODS Total of 90 patients, 38 with SIRS and 52 with sepsis, who were between the ages 20 to 92, were included in this prospectively planned study. Blood sample was collected from the patients during hospitalization and again in follow-up visit. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (MyBioSource, Inc., San Diego, CA, USA) was used to measure sTREM-1, and PCT was measured using mini VIDAS B.R.A.H.M.S PCT assay (Biomerieux, S.A., Marcy-l'Étoile, France). In addition, patients were clinically assessed using Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scoring system. RESULTS On day of intensive care unit admission, sTREM-1 and PCT levels, as well as APACHE II score were significantly higher in sepsis group than SIRS group (p=0.001, p=0.01, p=0.001, respectively). Values of sTREM-1 and APACHE II score were higher in the patients with positive blood cultures than those with negative culture results (p=0.002, p=0.006, respectively). PCT, C-reactive protein, and sTREM-1 levels were significantly higher in nonsurviving group. In differentiation of SIRS from sepsis, sTREM-1 cut-off value ≥133 pg/mL and PCT cut-off value of 1.57 ng/mL yielded sensitivity of 71.1% and 67.33%, and specificity of 73.3% and 65.79%, respectively. CONCLUSION In patients with suspected sepsis, sTREM-1 and PCT can be used as indicators, in addition to scoring systems such as APACHE II and Sepsis-related Organ Failure Assessment score. However, it would be appropriate to support present findings with studies of larger series.

Abstract
Background Sepsis is one of the most common diseases that seriously threaten human health. Although a large number of markers related to sepsis have been reported in the last two decades, the diagnostic accuracy of these biomarkers remains unclear due to the lack of similar baselines among studies. Therefore, we conducted a large systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the diagnostic value of biomarkers from studies that included non-infectious systemic inflammatory response syndrome patients as a control group. Methods We searched Medline, Embase and the reference lists of identified studies beginning in April 2014. The last retrieval was updated in September 2016. Results Ultimately, 86 articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Sixty biomarkers and 10,438 subjects entered the final analysis. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves for the 7 most common biomarkers, including procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, interleukin 6, soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1, presepsin, lipopolysaccharide binding protein and CD64, were 0.85, 0.77, 0.79, 0.85, 0.88, 0.71 and 0.96, respectively. The remaining 53 biomarkers exhibited obvious variances in diagnostic value and methodological quality. Conclusions Although some biomarkers displayed moderate or above moderate diagnostic value for sepsis, the limitations of the methodological quality and sample size may weaken these findings. Currently, we still lack an ideal biomarker to aid in the diagnosis of sepsis. In the future, biomarkers with better diagnostic value as well as a combined diagnosis using multiple biomarkers are expected to solve the challenge of the diagnosis of sepsis.

Abstract
Purpose of review Despite the application of prophylactic antimicrobial therapy and advanced technologies, infection remains one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality in surgical patients. Understanding the pathogenesis of surgical infection would offer new insights into the development of biomarkers to predict and stratify infection in patients, and to explore specific strategies to minimize this serious postoperative complication. Recent findings The acute nonspecific inflammatory response triggered by endogenous danger signals evoked by surgical insult is beneficial, while paradoxically associated with reduced resistance to infection. There is growing evidence indicating that primed inflammation by surgical insult exaggerates the dysregulation of the immune-inflammatory response to the invasion of pathogens postoperatively. Innate immune receptors, such as Toll-like receptors (TLRs), contribute to detecting both pathogen-associated molecular patterns and endogenous damage-associated molecular patterns, and to further amplifying inflammatory responses to infection. Current evidence shows the fascinating role of non-TLRs in the process of infection. Non-TLRs, such as membrane-associated triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells family, cytosolic nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors and nuclear receptor nuclear family 4 subgroup A receptors, are also crucial in triggering the immune responses and mounting an effective defense against surgical insults and the second hit of infection. Summary Understanding the pivotal role of non-TLRs in sensing exogenous and endogenous molecules, and the influence of primed systemic inflammation and depressed immune status on the defense against pathogen after surgical insult, would be helpful to fully explore the relevant sophisticated phenomena of surgical infection, and to elucidate the occurrence of heterogeneous constellations of clinical signs and symptoms among this special population.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The innate immune response molecules and their use as a predictor of mortality in cancer patients with severe sepsis and septic shock are poorly investigated. OBJECTIVE To analyze the value of interleukin (IL)-1ß, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1), and high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB-1) as predictors of mortality in cancer patients with severe sepsis and septic shock compared with septic patients without malignancies. DESIGN Prospective, observational cohort study. SETTING Tertiary level adult intensive care unit (ICU). SUBJECTS Seventy-five patients with severe sepsis or septic shock, 40 with cancer and 35 without. INTERVENTIONS AND MEASUREMENTS Laboratory data were collected at ICU admission, 24 and 48 hours after. Plasma concentrations of HMGB-1 and sTREM-1 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, whereas cytokines were measured by cytometric bead array. RESULTS Intensive care unit mortality in cancer and noncancer patients was 40% and 28.6% (P = .29), and 28-day mortality was 45% and 34.3% (P = .34). Proinflammatory cytokines IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12, and TNF-α showed significantly higher values in the cancer group. Interleukin-10 at 48 hours (P = .01), sTREM-1 in all measurements (P < .01) and HMGB-1 at 24 hours (P < .01) showed significantly lower values in the cancer group. In addition, for the cancer group, sTREM-1 at 24 hours (P = .02) and 48 hours (P = .01) showed higher levels in nonsurvivors patients. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for predicting ICU mortality for sTREM-1 was 0.73 (95% confidence interval, 0.57-0.89; P = .01). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the days spent in mechanical ventilation and levels of sTREM-1 and IL-1ß at 48 hours were independent predictors of ICU mortality; corticosteroids requirement and levels of sTREM-1 and TNF-α at 24 hours were independent predictors of 28-day mortality. CONCLUSIONS Patients with cancer have different immune profile in sepsis when compared with patients without cancer, as demonstrated for levels of cytokines, sTREM-1 and HMGB-1. sTREM-1 and days spent in mechanical ventilation proved to be good predictors of ICU and 28-day mortality in cancer patients.

Abstract
AIM: To assess the significance of serum soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell-1 (sTREM-1) and neutrophil CD64 in the differential diagnosis and therapeutic evaluation of neonatal diarrhea.
METHODS: This was a prospective observational study. Ninety patients were divided into a bacterial diarrhea group (n = 32), a viral diarrhea group (n = 32), and a non-infection diarrhea group (n = 32). Serum sTREM-1 was measured by double-antibody sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). CD64 was measured by automatic flow cytometry. Serum sTREM-1 and CD64 were detected in each child before and after treatment. The diagnostic value of sTREM-1 and CD64 was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.
RESULTS: Median concentrations of serum sTREM-1 and CD64 in the bacterial, viral infection and non-infection groups were 75.25, 23.25 and 15.25 pg/mL, and 69.36, 25.50 and 21.37 MFI, respectively. After treatment, the level of sTREM-1 in the bacterial diarrhea group was significantly higher than those in the viral diarrhea and non-infection groups (P < 0.05), although there was no statistical difference between the viral diarrhea group and non-infectious diarrhea group (P > 0.05). The sensitivity and specificity of serum sTREM-1 for diagnosis of neonatal diarrhea were 90% and 82%, respectively, while those of serum CD64 were 88% and 93%.
CONCLUSION: Serum sTREM-1 and CD64 detection can be used for early diagnosis and differential diagnosis of bacterial diarrhea and for observation of anti-infection effects.

Abstract
Introduction Early diagnosis of sepsis is vital to the clinical course and outcome of septic patients. Recently, soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) appears to be a potential marker of infection. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the accuracy of plasma sTREM-1 for sepsis diagnosis in systemic inflammatory patients. Methods A systematic literature search of PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was performed using specific search terms (up to 15 October 2012). Studies were included if they assessed the accuracy of plasma sTREM-1 for sepsis diagnosis in adult patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and provided sufficient information to construct a 2 X 2 contingency table. Results Eleven studies with a total of 1,795 patients were included. The pooled sensitivity and specificity was 79% (95% confidence interval (CI), 65 to 89) and 80% (95% CI, 69 to 88), respectively. The positive likelihood ratio, negative likelihood ratio and diagnostic odds ratio were 4.0 (95% CI, 2.4 to 6.9), 0.26 (95% CI, 0.14 to 0.48), and 16 (95% CI, 5 to 46), respectively. The area under the curve of the summary receiver operator characteristic was 0.87 (95% CI, 0.84 to 0.89). Meta-regression analysis suggested that patient sample size and assay method were the main sources of heterogeneity. Publication bias was suggested by an asymmetrical funnel plot (P = 0.02). Conclusions The present meta-analysis showed that plasma sTREM-1 had a moderate diagnostic performance in differentiating sepsis from SIRS. Accordingly, plasma sTREM-1 as a single marker was not sufficient for sepsis diagnosis in systemic inflammatory patients.

Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to explore the diagnostic value of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1), procalcitonin (PCT), and C-reactive protein (CRP) serum levels for differentiating sepsis from SIRS, identifying new fever caused by bacteremia, and assessing prognosis when new fever occurred. Methods We enrolled 144 intensive care unit (ICU) patients: 60 with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and 84 with sepsis complicated by new fever at more than 48 h after ICU admission. Serum sTREM-1, PCT, and CRP levels were measured on the day of admission and at the occurrence of new fever (>38.3°C) during hospitalization. Based on the blood culture results, the patients were divided into a blood culture-positive bacteremia group (33 patients) and blood culture-negative group (51 patients). Based on 28-day survival, all patients, both blood culture-positive and -negative, were further divided into survivor and nonsurvivor groups. Results On ICU day 1, the sepsis group had higher serum sTREM-1, PCT, and CRP levels compared with the SIRS group (P <0.05). The areas under the curve (AUC) for these indicators were 0.868 (95% CI, 0.798–0.938), 0.729 (95% CI, 0.637–0.821), and 0.679 (95% CI, 0.578–0.771), respectively. With 108.9 pg/ml as the cut-off point for serum sTREM-1, sensitivity was 0.83 and specificity was 0.81. There was no statistically significant difference in serum sTREM-1 or PCT levels between the blood culture-positive and -negative bacteremia groups with ICU-acquired new fever. However, the nonsurvivors in the blood culture-positive bacteremia group had higher levels of serum sTREM-1 and PCT (P <0.05), with a prognostic AUC for serum sTREM-1 of 0.868 (95% CI, 0.740–0.997). Conclusions Serum sTREM-1, PCT, and CRP levels each have a role in the early diagnosis of sepsis. Serum sTREM-1, with the highest sensitivity and specificity of all indicators studied, is especially notable. sTREM-1, PCT, and CRP levels are of no use in determining new fever caused by bacteremia in ICU patients, but sTREM-1 levels reflect the prognosis of bacteremia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Infections are the major cause of morbidity and mortality in febrile neutropenic patients with malignancy. Rapid diagnostic tests are needed for prompt diagnosis and early treatment which is crucial for optimal management. We assessed the utility of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (sTREM-1) in the diagnosis of bacteremia and fungemia in febrile neutropenic patients. METHODS Sixty-five febrile neutropenic children with malignancy hospitalized in Mofid Children's Hospital during a period of one year from January 2007 were recruited for this cross sectional study (mean age 66.2± 37 months; 35 females and 30 males). Thirty patients (46.2%) had acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 2 (3.1%) acute myeloid leukemia, one (1.5%) lymphoma and 32 (49.2%) were under treatment for solid tumors. Simultaneous blood samples were collected for measurement of serum sTREM-1 levels and for blood cultures which were grown in BACTEC media. Gold standard for the presence of infection was a positive BACTEC culture as a more sensitive method compared to current blood culture techniques. FINDINGS Blood cultures with BACTEC system were positive in 13(20%) patients (12 bacterial and one fungal culture). The mean serum sTREM-1 level in BACTEC positive patients was 948.2±592.9 pg/ml but in BACTEC negative cases it was 76.3±118.8 pg/ml (P<0.001). The optimal cut-off point of sTREM-1 for detecting patients with positive result of BACTEC was 525 pg/ml with sensitivity and specificity of 84.6% and 100%, respectively. CONCLUSION Our study revealed a significant association between serum sTREM-1 level and bacteremia and fungemia in febrile neutropenic patients suffering malignancy with acceptable sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
Purpose In this study, we evaluated C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin (IL)-8, procalcitonin (PCT), and soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) as predictors for bacterial infection in febrile neutropenia, plus their usefulness in febrile neutropenia during chemotherapy-induced gastrointestinal mucositis. Methods Plasma was obtained from pediatric oncology patients at presentation with febrile neutropenia (n = 43) and 24–48 h later (n = 17). The patients were classified as having or not having a bacterial infection. Plasma was also obtained of patients in the absence and in the presence of mucositis (n = 26). Results At presentation with febrile neutropenia, median IL-8 and PCT levels were significantly increased in patients with a bacterial infection, in contrast to CRP and sTREM-1. IL-8 was the most sensitive marker for the early detection of bacterial infection, in combination with clinical parameters or PCT the sensitivity reached 100%. After 24–48 h, only PCT was significantly elevated during bacterial infection. IL-8 levels were significantly increased during mucositis. Mucositis did not cause considerable changes in PCT levels. Conclusions IL-8 is the most useful marker for the early detection of bacterial infections, compared with CRP, PCT, and sTREM-1. IL-8 in combination with clinical parameters or PCT might be even more useful. Gastrointestinal mucositis alone does not affect PCT levels, in contrast to IL-8 levels, and therefore, PCT might be more useful for the detection of bacterial infections during mucositis than IL-8.
