Summary: | Purpose
This study was conducted to investigate the percentages of Th22 and Th17 cells in the peripheral blood of septic patients with and without acute lung injury (ALI) and their clinical significance.
Methods
A total of 479 patients were divided into non-ALI and ALI groups. The percentages of Th22 and Th17 cells and the levels of interleukin 22 (IL-22), 6 (IL-6), and 17 (IL-17) were determined. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to assess the diagnostic value of Th22 and Th17 cells to predict sepsis-induced ALI.
Results
The lung injury prediction score (LIPS), IL-6, IL-17, and IL-22 levels and the percentages of Th17 and Th22 cells were significantly higher in the ALI group (
