Abstract:

Objective

To investigate the diagnostic value of serum procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), white blood cell count (WBC), interleukin-6 (IL-6), P2X7 receptor and CD64 combined detection in children with bacteria pneumonia.

Methods

Total of 140 children with pneumonia admitted to Shenzhen Longhua District Central Hospital from October 2017 to October 2018 were selected and divided into bacterial group (60 cases), mycoplasma pneumoniae group (50 cases) and virus group (30 cases) according to different infectious pathogens. While, 50 healthy children who had physical examination in our hospital during the same period were selected as healthy control group. The levels of serum PCT, CRP, WBC and IL-6, the expressions of P2X7 receptor and CD64 in the four groups were measured and compared, respectively. The values of these indicators in the diagnosis of bacterial pneumonia in children were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

Results

The serum PCT, CRP and IL-6 levels of children in bacteria group, mycoplasma pneumoniae group, virus group and healthy control group showed a gradually decreasing trends (F = 24.935, 31.942, 21.764, all P < 0.001). WBC level in cases of bacterial group was higher than that of cases in mycoplasma pneumoniae group, virus group and healthy control group (t = 12.219, 8.942, 15.053, all P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in WBC level between cases of mycoplasma pneumoniae group and virus group (t = 1.010, P = 0.316). The expression levels of P2X7 receptor and CD64 of cases in bacteria group were significantly higher than those of mycoplasma pneumoniae group, virus group and healthy control group. Moreover, the expression levels of P2X7 receptor and CD64 in serum of cases in mycoplasma pneumoniae group and virus group were significantly higher than that of healthy control group (all P < 0.001). The expression levels of P2X7 receptor and CD64 in serum between cases in mycoplasma pneumoniae group and virus group were not significantly different (t = 0.525, P = 0.601; t = 1.629, P = 0.107). The ROC curves showed that the area of under the curve of serum PCT, CRP, WBC, IL-6, P2X7 receptors and CD64 combined detection (0.924), sensitivity (0.92) and specificity (0.93) were significantly higher than the separate detection indexes (PCT: 0.728, 0.74, 0.69; CRP: 0.719, 0.72, 0.70; WBC: 0.687, 0.70, 0.65; IL-6: 744, 0.78, 0.72; P2X7 receptors: 0.659, 0.64, 0.61; CD64: 0.702, 0.71, 0.68).

Conclusion

The combined detection of serum PCT, CRP, WBC, IL-6, P2X7 receptor and CD64 was of high diagnostic value for children with bacterial pneumonia.
