Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the correlation between serum inflammatory response and stress hormone and immune response in patients with postoperative cesarean section infection.

Methods

Total of 65 cases of cesarean section complicated with postoperative incision infection from Chongqing City State District People’s Hospital from December 2015 to December 2017 were selected as observation group, while 116 women who underwent cesarean section in our hospital but without wound infection after operation were selected as control group. Total of 5 ml cubital venous blood of the two groups were collected, then the supernatant was collected after centrifugation. The serum interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-8 (IL-8), angiotensin Ⅱ (AT-Ⅱ), cortisol (Cor), insulin (INS) and norepinephrine (NE) were detected by ELISA; the content of CD16+CD25+ NK cells, CD3+CD4+ T cells and CD3+CD8+ T cells were detected by flow cytometry. The immunoadhesive promoting factor (FEER), the direct tumor erythrocyte rosette rate (DTER), immunoadhesive inhibitor (FEIR), tumor red blood cell garland (ATER) and natural tumor red blood cell rosette rate (NTER) count were observed under oil microscope.

Results

The serum levels of IL-6, IL-1, IL-8 and TNF-α of cases in observation group were higher than those of the control group, with significant differences (t = 9.057, 6.432, 8.746, 15.072; P = 0.002, 0.005, 0.001, 0.001). The count of serum CD16+CD25+ NK cells and CD3+CD4+ T cells of cases in observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group (t = 3.147, 6.382; P = 0.026, 0.001), and the serum CD3+CD8+ T cells were significantly higher than that of control group (t = 10.453, P = 0.008). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum IL-8, IL-6, IL-1 and TNF-α levels in the observation group were positively correlated with serum CD3+CD8+ T cells and FEIR levels, and counts of CD16+CD25+ NK, CD3+CD4+ T cells; but negatively correlated with the contents of FEER, DTER, NTER, ATER, AT-II, Cor, INS and NE.

Conclusions

The inflammatory response in cesarean section infection can significantly activate the excessive secretion of inflammatory factors, and its abnormal activation of inflammatory response and immune response changes, stress hormone secretion is closely related.
