About this study

Official title: A Prospective Study on the Diagnosis, Severity and Prognosis of Soluble Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells-1 in Sepsis & Related Complications

Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of receptors that is specifically expressed on the surfaces of monocytes and neutrophils.TREM-1 expression is increased in infectious diseases and is associated with the release of soluble TREM-1 (sTREM-1).There has been demonstrated that the value of plasma sTREM-1 levels as an indicator of sepsis was superior, although other studies reported that the value of sTREM-1 for diagnosing sepsis was inferior.An increasing number of studies indicate that there are increased levels of sTREM-1 in body fluid samples for the following diseases and conditions: sepsis, pneumonia, pleural effusion, septic arthritis, meningitis, peritonitis, and uterine cavity infection.

Inflammation is now believed to play a major role in the pathophysiology of AKI. It is hypothesized that the initial insult results in morphological and/or functional changes in vascular endothelial cells and/or in tubular epithelium in sepsis models. Then, leukocytes including neutrophils, macrophages, natural killer cells, and lymphocytes infiltrate into the injured kidneys and induce the generation of inflammatory mediators. Whether urine sTREM-1 could also be detected and its significance in sepsis and AKI has not been reported yet.

The present study focused on the value of serum \& urine sTREM-1 for sepsis identification, severity and prognosis assessments, and potential sepsis-related AKI. We also made comparisons between sTREM-1 and WBC counts, serum CRP, serum PCT, urine output,CC SCr, and BUN among sepsis patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groups in NCT01333657
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
SIRS1. temperature >38 ℃ or <36℃; 2. pulse rate>90 beats/min; 3. ventilatory rate>20 breaths/min or hyperventilation with partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2)<32mmHg; 4. white blood cell count>12,000μL-1 or <4000μL-1 or >10% immature cells
Sepsis1. sepsis: SIRS plus infection; 2. severe sepsis: sepsis associated with organ dysfunction, hypoperfusion, or hypotension; 3. septic shock: sepsis with arterial hypotension, despite adequate fluid resuscitation.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patients Outcome

    The survival time of patients more than 28days is defined as survival. The survival time of patients less than 28days is defined as death.

    Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of SIRS and Sepsis, run by Chinese PLA General Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Aug 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patients Outcome (time frame: 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01333657, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Aug 2011.
