Abstract:Objective To explore the effect of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) on the multidrug resistance (MDR) bacteria-induced severe pneumonia. Methods A total of 171 severe pneumonia patients were enrolled and divided into MDR group (n=86) and non-MDR group (n=85). Clinical data and biochemical indices were compared between the two groups. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard model were used to analyze survival rate of patients and predictors. Results Compared with non-MDR group, the NETs level, SOFA score and APACHE Ⅱ score increased in the MDR group (P<0.01). NETs level was positively correlated with the SOFA score (r=0.202, P=0.008) and APACHE Ⅱ score (r=0.408, P=0.001). There was significant difference in survival rate between MDR and non-MDR groups (58.48% vs 84.70%, P=0.000 3). Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that NETs affected prognosis of patients with severe pneumonia (HR=1.000 2,95%CI 1.000 1-1.000 2, P=0.002). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that grouping was the independent prognostic factor for survival of patients (HR=0.288,95%CI 0.151-0.548, P=0.000 1). Conclusion NETs increase in patients with severe pneumonia induced by MDR bacteria, which may be a factor influencing the prognosis of these patients, and patients with MDR bacteria infection had worse prognosis.
