Abstract: Objective To observe the changes of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), soluble triggering receptor-1 expressed on myeloid cells (sTREM-1), and α1-acid glycoprotein (α1-APG) levels in the peripheral blood of patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP), and to understand their clinical significance in CAP patients. Methods Peripheral blood TNF-α and sTREM-1 levels of 110 CAP patients (CAP group) and 52 normal controls (control group) were detected by ELISA double antibody sandwich method, and peripheral blood α1-APG level was detected by immune turbidity method. The changing trends of TNF-α, sTREM-1 and α1-APG in CAP patients with different states of illness were observed on the 1st, 4th, and 7th days. Results TNF-α, sTREM-1 and α1-APG levels in CAP group on the 1st, 4th and 7th days were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.001). After the treatment, the TNF-α, sTREM-1 and α1-APG levels of CAP patients reduced significantly on the 4th day than the 1st day (P<0.001), the TNF-α and sTREM-1 levels on the 7th day reduced significantly than the 4th day (P<0.001), while the α1-APG level on the 7th day rosed than the 4th day (P<0.05). The TNF-α, sTREM-1 and α1-APG levels in PSI high-risk patients were significantly higher than those in middle-risk patients and low-risk patients on the 1st day (P<0.001). The TNF-α, sTREM-1 and α1-APG levels on the 1st day between respiratory failure patients and non-respiratory failure patients had statistical differences (P<0.001). On the 7th day after admission of CAP group, the sTREM-1 and α1-APG levels decreased significantly in glucocorticoid treatment patients than those in non-glucocorticoid treatment patients (P<0.01), but the TNF-α levels in these two groups showed no statistical difference (P>0.05). Conclusion There are excessive releases of inflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α, sTREM-1 and α1-APG, in CAP patients. Application of glucocorticoid can reduce the levels of sTREM-1 and α1-APG. The TNF-α, sTREM-1 and α1-APG levels can reflect the severity of illness and treatment effects of CAP patients, thus can be used as guide indicators for diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of CAP patients.
