Prognostic value of hyperuricemia for patients with sepsis in the intensive care unit.

ABSTRACT: This study evaluated the relationship between hyperuricemia at admission and the clinical prognosis of patients with sepsis. The data were obtained from the Intensive Care Medical Information Database III. The patients were divided into a normal serum uric acid group and a hyperuricemia group. The main outcome was 90-day mortality, and the secondary outcomes were hospital mortality, 30-day mortality, and acute kidney injury. Propensity score matching was used to balance the baseline characteristics of the groups. Our study retrospectively included 954 patients. Before and after propensity score matching, the incidence of AKI, the 30-day and 90-day mortality rates were significantly higher in the hyperuricemia group. Cox regression analysis showed that hyperuricemia was significantly associated with 90-day mortality (HR 1.648, 95% CI 1.215-2.234, p = 0.006), and hyperuricemia was significantly associated with the incidence of AKI (HR 1.773, 95% CI 1.107-2.841, p = 0.017). The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the 90-day survival rate was significantly lower in the hyperuricemia group. In patients with sepsis in the intensive care unit, hyperuricemia was significantly associated with increased risk 90-day all-cause mortality and the incidence of AKI.

Project description:BackgroundThe protective cardiovascular effect of high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) is considered to chiefly rely on reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral tissues back to the liver. However, HDL particles display pleiotropic properties, including anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic or antioxidant functions. Some studies suggest that HDL concentration decreases during sepsis, and an association was reported between low HDL levels and a poor outcome. Like sepsis, trauma is also associated with a systemic inflammatory response syndrome. However, no study has yet explored changes in lipid profiles during trauma. We sought to compare lipid profiles between sepsis and trauma patients in intensive care unit (ICU). In septic patients, we analyzed the association between lipid profile, severity and prognosis.MethodsA prospective, observational, single-centered study was conducted in a surgical ICU. For each patient, total cholesterol, HDL, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were assessed at admission. Short-term prognosis outcome was prospectively assessed.ResultsSeventy-five consecutive patients were admitted (50 sepsis and 25 trauma). There was no difference in SOFA and SAPSII scores between the two groups. Patients with sepsis had lower total cholesterol levels than patients with trauma. Regarding the lipoprotein profile, only HDLs differed significantly between the two groups (median [IQR] = 0.33 mmol/l [0.17-0.78] in sepsis patients versus median [IQR] = 0.99 mmol/l [0.74-1.28] in trauma patients; P < 0.0001). Whereas ICU mortality was not associated with lipid levels in the sepsis group, a significant negative correlation was found between HDL concentration and the length of ICU stay (r = -0.35; P = 0.03) in the group of survivor septic patients at ICU discharge. In addition, poor outcome defined as death or a SOFA score >6 at day 3 was associated with lower HDL levels (median [IQR] = 0.20 mmol/l [0.11-0.41] vs. 0.35 mmol/l [0.19-0.86] in patients with poor outcome versus others; P = 0.03).ConclusionsLipid profile was totally different between sepsis and trauma in ICU patients: HDL levels were low in septic patients, whereas their concentration was not altered in trauma patients. This major difference reinforces the necessity to explore the therapeutic potential of HDL in sepsis.
