[PMID: 38650947 PMCID: PMC11033417 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2024.1365591] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Background systemic inflammation disorders were observed in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Whether the systemic inflammatory indicators could be optimal predictors for the survival of CKD remains less studied. Methods In this study, participants were selected from the datasets of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 1999 to 2018 years. Four systemic inflammatory indicators were evaluated by the peripheral blood tests including systemic immune-inflammation index (SII, platelet*neutrophil/lymphocyte), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR). Kaplan-Meier curves, restricted cubic spline (RCS), and Cox regression analysis were used to evaluate the association between the inflammatory index with the all-cause mortality of CKD. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and concordance index (C-index) were used to determine the predictive accuracy of varied systemic inflammatory indicators. Sensitive analyses were conducted to validate the robustness of the main findings. Results A total of 6,880 participants were included in this study. The mean age was 67.03 years old. Among the study population, the mean levels of systemic inflammatory indicators were 588.35 in SII, 2.45 in NLR, 133.85 in PLR, and 3.76 in LMR, respectively. The systemic inflammatory indicators of SII, NLR, and PLR were all significantly positively associated with the all-cause mortality of CKD patients, whereas the high value of LMR played a protectable role in CKD patients. NLR and LMR were the leading predictors in the survival of CKD patients [Hazard ratio (HR) =1.21, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.07-1.36, p = 0.003 (3rd quartile), HR = 1.52, 95%CI: 1.35-1.72, p<0.001 (4th quartile) in NLR, and HR = 0.83, 95%CI: 0.75-0.92, p<0.001 (2nd quartile), HR = 0.73, 95%CI: 0.65-0.82, p<0.001 (3rd quartile), and = 0.74, 95%CI: 0.65-0.83, p<0.001 (4th quartile) in LMR], with a C-index of 0.612 and 0.624, respectively. The RCS curves showed non-linearity between systemic inflammatory indicators and all-cause mortality risk of the CKD population. Conclusion Our study highlights that systemic inflammatory indicators are important for predicting the survival of the U.S. population with CKD. The systemic inflammatory indicators would add additional clinical value to the health care of the CKD population.

Abstract
STUDY DESIGN A retrospective study. OBJECTIVE This study examined the value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio at admission for early diagnosis, severity assessment, and prognosis of acute traumatic SCI. SETTING The First People's Hospital of Neijiang, China. METHODS This was a single-center, retrospective, cohort study of patients treated within 12 h of acute SCI between January 2018 and October 2022. Ninety-four SCI patients were selected as the Observation group, including 26 with complete injury (AIS grade A) and 68 with incomplete injury (AIS grade B-D), while 94 patients with simple spinal fracture were randomly selected as the Control group. Eighty-one observation group patients underwent surgical treatment, of which 33 had a higher AIS grade (Good prognosis subgroup) and 48 a lower or equal grade post-surgery (Poor prognosis subgroup). Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to assess predictors of early diagnosis, severity, and 6-month outcome. RESULTS Initial white blood cell count, neutrophil count, monocyte count, and NLR were higher in the Observation group than the Control group, while lymphocyte count was lower in the Observation group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified NLR as an independent predictor of early diagnosis. Spinal canal encroachment ≥50%, neutrophil count, and NLR were higher in the complete injury subgroup, and spinal canal encroachment ≥50% was an independent predictor of complete injury, while NLR was not. The NLR was higher in the poor prognosis subgroup and was an independent risk factor. CONCLUSIONS Peripheral blood NLR is useful for early diagnosis of acute SCI and is predictive of clinical outcome.

[PMID: 38182863 PMCID: PMC10770361 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-51253-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/07/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the utility of complete blood count (CBC) markers, in conjunction with the acute kidney injury network (AKIN) criteria, for the early detection, severity assessment, and prediction of mortality outcomes of acute kidney injury (AKI) in burn patients. The research seeks to fill existing gaps in knowledge and validate the cost-effectiveness of using CBC as a routine diagnostic tool for better management of AKI. The study was conducted at Hangang Sacred Heart Hospital. We performed a large-scale retrospective analysis of 2758 adult patients admitted to the burn intensive care unit over a 12-year period. Among these patients, AKI occurred in 1554 patients (56.3%). Based on the AKIN stage classification, 794 patients (28.8%) were categorized as AKIN 1, 494 patients (17.9%) as AKIN 2, and 266 patients (9.6%) as AKIN 3. We defined several ratio markers, including the Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), Platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), Monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), and various mean platelet volume (MPV) ratios. Our statistical analyses, conducted using the R programming language, revealed significant correlations between these markers and AKI severity. The AUC values for neutrophil count and WBC count were 0.790 and 0.793, respectively, followed by immature granulocyte count with an AUC of 0.727. For red blood cell (RBC)-related parameters, the AUC values for hematocrit (Hct), hemoglobin (Hb), and RBC count were 0.725, 0.713, and 0.713, respectively. Among the platelet-related parameters, only platelet distribution width (PDW) had an AUC of 0.677. Among the ratio markers, the NLR had the highest AUC at 0.772, followed by MPVNR and SII with AUC values of 0.700 and 0.680, respectively. The findings underscore the potential of CBC as an economical, routine test for AKI, thereby paving the way for enhanced patient outcomes. Our study suggests the utility of routine CBC tests, specifically WBC count and PLR, for predicting AKI and platelet, MPV, and NLR for mortality assessment in burn patients. These findings underscore the potential of easily accessible CBC tests in enhancing AKI management. However, further multicenter studies are needed for validation.

Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2024; 34:206-213. [PMID: 37996371 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2023.10.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 08/31/2023] [Accepted: 10/05/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Serum uric acid (SUA) has been reported to be associated with inflammation, and elevated SUA is increasingly prevalent in adolescents. The systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) is an innovative and integrated inflammatory indicator that has not yet been studied with SUA in adolescents. We therefore aimed to investigate the potential relationship between SII and SUA in U.S. adolescents. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 5,568 adolescents aged 12-19 years from NHANES 2009-2018 were analyzed. SII was calculated as platelet count × neutrophil count/lymphocyte count. Elevated SUA was defined as ≥ 5.5 mg/dL. SII was Ln-transformed for analysis for the skewed distribution. Multivariate linear and multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted to explore the association of SII with SUA and elevated SUA. A generalized additive model and a fitted smoothing curve were also performed. The prevalence of elevated SUA was 35.4 %. Multivariate linear regression analyses indicated that LnSII was positively associated with SUA level (β = 0.15, 95 % CI: 0.09-0.20). Multiple logistic analyses indicated that LnSII was associated with a 38 % increased risk of elevated SUA (OR = 1.38, 95 % CI: 1.11-1.70). The smooth curve fitting showed that the associations of LnSII with SUA and elevated SUA were linear. Besides, subgroup analyses showed a stronger association between LnSII and SUA in adolescents aged ≥17 years (P for interaction <0.05). CONCLUSIONS SII was positively associated with SUA level and elevated SUA in U.S. adolescents, particularly in populations aged ≥17 years.

The Value of Preoperative Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index as a Predictor of Prolonged Hospital Stay in Orthopedic Surgery: A Retrospective Study. Int J Gen Med 2023; 16:4773-4782. [PMID: 37904903 PMCID: PMC10613446 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s434630] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 11/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose Many risk factors, such as the duration of surgery and higher ASA scores, are associated with longer hospitalization in patients undergoing orthopedic surgery. However, no studies have evaluated the relationship between the preoperative systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) and length of hospital stay in orthopedic surgical patients. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether the SII is associated with the length of hospital stay in orthopedic surgery in adults. Patients and Methods This was a retrospective cohort study, and data were extracted from electronic health records. Patients were included if they were older than 18 years and had undergone orthopedic surgery between [2016-2021]. The patients were divided into two groups according to the median duration of hospitalization and according to SII cut-off value (high-SII group: ≥799.86, low-SII group: <799.86). Univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses were used to identify the association between SII and length of hospitalization. Results A total of 196 patients who underwent orthopedic surgery were included, and 62 were hospitalized for >21 days. There were significant differences in terms of ASA score (P = 0.041). Patients who required a longer hospitalization of >21 days had significantly lower hemoglobin level (P < 0.001), higher duration of surgery (P = 0.015), and increased requirement of ICU admission (P < 0.001). The optimal cut-off value for preoperative SII of 799.86 stratified the patients into high-SII and low-SII groups. Patients in high-SII group had higher median LOHS (22 days) compared to low-SII group (17 days; P = 0.006). In the multivariable linear regression analysis, the SII was significantly related to the length of hospital stay (β = 0.246, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.000-0.005, P = 0.031). Conclusion A high-SII value is associated with an increased risk of longer hospitalization after orthopedic surgery.
