This study aimed to establish the profiles of cytokines in trauma patients to characterize the nature of immune responses to sepsis, which might enable early prediction and individualized treatments to be developed for targeted intervention.\u0000\u0000\u0000METHODS\u0000A 15-plex human cytokine magnetic bead assay system was used to measure analytes in citrated plasma samples. Analysis of the kinetics of these cytokines was performed in 40 patients with severe blunt trauma admitted to our trauma center between March 2016 and February 2017, with an Injury Severity Score (ISS) greater than 20 with regard to sepsis (Sepsis-3) over a 14-d time course.\u0000\u0000\u0000RESULTS\u0000In total, the levels of six cytokines were altered in trauma patients across the 1-, 3-, 5-, 7-, and 14-d time points. Additionally, IL-6, IL-10, IL-15, macrophage derived chemokine (MDC), GRO, sCD40 L, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), and fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 levels could be used to provide a significant discrimination between sepsis and nonsepsis patients at day 3 and afterward, with an area under the curve (AUC) of up to 0.90 through a combined analysis of the eight biomarkers (P < 0.001). Event-related analysis demonstrated 1.5- to 4-fold serum level changes for these cytokines within 72 h before clinically apparent sepsis.\u0000\u0000\u0000CONCLUSIONS\u0000Cytokine profiles demonstrate a high discriminatory ability enabling the timely identification of evolving sepsis in trauma patients. These abrupt changes enable sepsis to be detected up to 72 h before clinically overt deterioration. Defining cytokine release patterns that distinguish sepsis risk from trauma patients might enable physicians to initiate timely treatment and reduce mortality. Large prospective studies are needed to validate and operationalize the findings.\u0000\u0000\u0000TRIAL REGISTRATION\u0000Clinicaltrials, NCT01713205.

The diverticulitis quality of life (DV-QOL) instrument was designed and validated to measure the patient-reported burden of diverticular disease. However, in order for the DV-QOL to capture longitudinal outcomes, values reflecting meaningful improvement (i.e., minimal clinically important difference (MCID)) and the patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) need to be established. We sought to establish the MCID and PASS of the DV-QOL, and describe the characteristics of those with DV-QOL above the PASS threshold. Methods: We performed a prospective cohort study of adults with diverticular disease from 7 centers in Washington and California (2016-2018). Patients were surveyed at baseline, then quarterly up to 30 months. To determine the PASS for DV-QOL, we used an anchor-based approach and performed receiver operating characteristic analyses using baseline data. A range of MCID values were calculated using distribution-based and anchor-based approaches. Results: The study included 177 patients (mean age 57, 43% female). A PASS threshold of 3.2/10 distinguished between those with and without HRQoL-impacting diverticulitis with acceptable accuracy (area under the curve (AUC) 0.76). A change of 2.2 points in the DV-QOL was the most appropriate MCID: above the measurement error and corresponding to patient perception of importance of change (AUC 0.70). Patients with DV-QOL[≥]PASS were more often male, younger, had Medicaid, less educated, and had more serious episodes of diverticulitis. Conclusion: Our study is the first to define MCID and PASS for DV-QOL. These thresholds are critical for measuring the impact of diverticular disease and the evaluation of treatment effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":191568,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of surgical research","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126071792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
