Comparison of the serum contents of inflammatory mediators and oxidative stress mediators between patients with gram-positive bacteria and gram-negative bacteria infection

摘要

Objective: To compare the serum contents of inflammatory mediators and oxidative stress mediators between patients with gram-positive bacteria and gram-negative bacteria infection. Methods: Patients who were diagnosed with bloodstream bacterial infection in Zigong Third People's Hospital between March 2015 and April 2017 were selected as the research subjects and divided into gram-positive group and gram-negative group according to the results of blood culture and strain identification, and serum levels of inflammatory mediators PCT, IL-1β, IL-6, sTREM-1, TNF-α, NGAL, SAA, HPT and hs-CRP as well as oxidative stress mediators MDA, AOPP, TAC, CAT and SOD were determined. Results: Serum PCT, IL-1β, IL-6, sTREM-1, TNF-α, NGAL, SAA, HPT, hs-CRP, MDA and AOPP levels of gram-negative group were greatly higher than those of gram-positive group while TAC, CAT and SOD levels were greatly lower than those of gram-positive group. Conclusion: The changes of inflammatory mediators and oxidative stress mediators in the serum of patients with gram-negative bacteria infection are more significant than those of patients with gram-positive bacteria infection.
