dc.description.abstractSoluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (sTREM-1) is a new biomarker that can be used for the diagnosis and monitoring of urinary system infections. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of serum sTREM-1 in patients with a diagnosis of acute stone pyelonephritis (ASP). This prospective study included 46 patients with a diagnosis of ASP and a control group of 23 individuals without urinary system infection. Blood samples were taken from participants upon hospital admission, and basal serum sTREM-1 levels were analyzed using the ELISA method. Serum sTREM-1 concentrations were measured after treatment of ASP patients. Basal leukocyte counts, C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, procalcitonin (PCT), and sTREM-1 (98.6 vs. 68.4 pg/mL, p < 0.001) levels were higher in the ASP group compared to the control group. After treatment, the median leukocyte counts, PCT, and sTREM-1 levels decreased and were similar to those of the control group. The median CRP level also decreased after treatment, but it remained higher than that of the control group. In predicting patients with ASP, the baseline sTREM-1 exhibited a sensitivity of 74.6% and a specificity of 78.2%, while its diagnostic performance was lower than that of leukocyte counts, CRP, and PCT. Despite the findings that levels of sTREM-1 were higher upon hospital admission in patients with ASP and significantly decreased after treatment, the utility of sTREM-1 as a biomarker for predicting patients with ASP remains constrained when compared to established inflammatory markers.
