Abstract

Urine soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) has been reported in sepsis diagnosis and prediction of sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (AKI). However, the mechanisms of the role of sTREM-1 for AKI remain unclear. It may be that topical inflammatory response of kidney, not just systemic inflammation, contributes to the elevated secretion of urine sTREM-1 in the process of sepsis-associated AKI. To further evaluate the role of sTREM-1 in this process, a larger-cohort multicenter study and the relevant basic research should be performed to reveal the diagnostic value and mechanism of sTREM-1 during the sepsis-associated AKI process. If successful, then urine sTREM-1 would be a good marker for sepsis and its associated AKI and could contribute to non-invasive diagnosis and monitoring in the clinical setting. Additionally, owing to the complexity of the pathogenesis of sepsis, it is necessary to combine some biomarkers to improve diagnostic performance in the diagnosis of sepsis-associated AKI rather than relying on a single marker.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 02 August 2015.
All research outputs
#4,082,380
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Critical Care
#2,909
of 6,554 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#62,824
of 395,418 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Critical Care
#238
of 466 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 83rd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 6,554 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 20.8. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 395,418 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 84% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 466 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 48th percentile – i.e., 48% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
