Reduced monocyte HLA-DR expression and increased neutrophil CD64 expression have been proposed as biomarkers of infection.
From 2009-2011, blood samples from neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and pediatric intensive care unit (ICU) patients <1 y of age were collected at enrollment and during subsequent evaluation for suspected infection, if it occurred. Samples were analyzed for monocyte HLA-DR and neutrophil CD64 expression levels by flow cytometry.
Forty-seven infants had study samples collected at enrollment; 26 infants had study samples collected at the time of a suspected infection. At enrollment, there was an inverse relationship between neutrophil CD64 expression and age (P ≤ 0.047). At the time of suspected infection, infants with an infection demonstrated a lower percentage of HLA-DR+ monocytes (P = 0.02, area under the curve (AUC) 0.78), higher percentage of CD64+ neutrophils (P = 0.009, AUC 0.81), and higher neutrophil CD64 expression levels (P = 0.04, AUC 0.75).
Monocyte HLA-DR and neutrophil CD64 expression in critically ill infants are related to age and infection.
单核细胞人类白细胞抗原-DR(HLA-DR)表达降低和中性粒细胞CD64表达增加已被提出作为感染的生物标志物。
2009年至2011年期间,收集了新生儿重症监护病房(NICU)和儿科重症监护病房(ICU)中年龄小于1岁的患者在入组时以及随后疑似感染(若发生)评估期间的血样。通过流式细胞术分析样本中的单核细胞HLA-DR和中性粒细胞CD64表达水平。
47名婴儿在入组时采集了研究样本;26名婴儿在疑似感染时采集了研究样本。入组时,中性粒细胞CD64表达与年龄呈负相关(P≤0.047)。在疑似感染时,感染婴儿的HLA-DR+单核细胞百分比更低(P = 0.02,曲线下面积(AUC)0.78),CD64+中性粒细胞百分比更高(P = 0.009,AUC 0.81),中性粒细胞CD64表达水平更高(P = 0.04,AUC 0.75)。
