The systemic inflammatory response syndrome induces functional changes and relative hyporesponsiveness in neutrophils

Abstract

Purpose To study the effects of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) on polymorhonuclear neutrophil (PMN) function and phenotype by comparing neutrophils from critically ill patients with SIRS against those from healthy blood donors.Material and methods Intensive care unit patients (n = 110) who met at least one SIRS criterion were recruited to the study. One hundred healthy blood donors were recruited as normal controls.Results Polymorphonuclear cells from critically ill patients with SIRS were more resistant to activation than PMNs from healthy donors, but when stimulated had an exaggerated microbicidal response. Buffer-treated PMNs from patients with SIRS had significantly higher CD43 surface expression that may inhibit heterotypic cellular contact or ligand stimulation of membrane receptors, had significantly lower expression of IgG receptor CD16, demonstrated resistance to shedding of L-selectin when primed by platelet-activating factor which could be pro-inflammatory, and had reduced respiratory burst when primed by platelet-activating factor than activated by formyl-Met-Leu-Phe.Conclusion The phenotypic and functional changes observed in neutrophils in the critically ill indicate that they require a higher level of stimulus to become activated. This may represent an auto-protective mechanism where the neutrophils in the already inflamed host may, by this mechanism, avoid excessive inflammation reducing the risk of further host cell injury and death.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The kinetics of delivery of neutrophils to tissues may be a more relevant determinant and marker of susceptibility to infection, and/or ongoing inflammation, than circulating white blood cell counts.

    “The kinetics of delivery of neutrophils to tissues may be a more relevant determinant and marker of susceptibility to infection, and/or ongoing inflammation, than circulating white blood cell counts [11].”
  • Examination of autopsy specimens from patients with multiple organ failure revealed localization of neutrophils in renal blood vessel aggregates and large-scale infiltration of lung tissues.

    “Examination of autopsy specimens from patients with multiple organ failure (MOF) revealed localization of neutrophils in both renal blood vessel aggregates and large-scale infiltration of the lung tissues [11].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
