Comparison of soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor, soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1, procalcitonin and C-reactive protein in distinguishing concurrent bacterial infection from idiopathic inflammatory myopathy

Abstract: The aim of the study was to measure the diagnostic values of biomarkers of bacterial infection in idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) patients. The serum and clinical data of 82 IIM patients with/without bacterial infection were collected. Concentrations of soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR), soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (sTREM-1), procalcitonin (PCT) and C-reactive protein (CRP) were measured in IIM patients and healthy controls. There were no significant d… Show more

“…4C). In addition, clinical variables such as ASS and ILD, and proteins (plasminogen and thrombospondin) which have previously been linked to myositis were positively correlating with the Jo1 + patients 3134 . Noteworthy, both the log(FA2_1/FA2_2) and the log Σ[B] data correlated weakly but significantly (R 2 = 0.13, p = 0.003 and R 2 = 0.09, p = 0.01, respectively) with accessible C reactive Protein (CRP) data linked to 70 of the measuring time points, (from 23 of the Jo1 − and of the 17 Jo1 + patients).…”

“…Due to their relative muscle specificity, serum CK levels are most frequently used for the diagnosis and monitoring of IIM, while the other markers (such as LD and transaminases) are present in almost all living cells and are far less specific for muscle damage (45). Moreover, elevated serum CRP is rarely seen in IIM, and is mostly observed in IIM-associated arthritis, ILD or cancer (46)(47)(48). In contrast, based on our diagnostic utility analysis, plasma Hsp90 outperformed CK and CRP in distinguishing IIM from HC, as well as PM and DM from HC.…”

“…Besides, the retrospective design and the new definition of intraoperative urosepsis may lead to an inaccurate estimation of urosepsis occurrence. Moreover, limited to the study design and missing data, we did not analyze more risk factors such as preoperative midstream urine culture and some biomarkers like C-reactive protein, procalcitonin and intraoperative perfusion pressure, which previous studies have shown a correlation with the risk of sepsis [19, 27, 3842]. Combining these weak points, our analyses should be interpreted prudently and further multi-center randomized controlled studies including a larger case number are needed.…”
