Correlation of Hyaluronic Acid (HA), Syndecan-1 (SDC-1), Heparan Sulfate (HS) with early stage ad organ dysfunction in sepsis patients.

This study aimed to explore the relationship between the changes in early degradation products of polysaccharide coatings (such as hyaluronic acid (HA), syndecan-1 (SDC-1), and heparan sulfate (HS)) and the development of organ dysfunction in sepsis patients. We conducted a retrospective analysis on 140 sepsis patients admitted from January 2021 to June 2022, who formed the study group; 100 healthy individuals who underwent health checks during the same period were included as the control group. The study found that the expression levels of HA, SDC-1, and HS upon admission and within 24 hours of admission in sepsis patients, as well as the early change rates, were positively correlated with organ dysfunction (P < 0.05). Through receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, we discovered that the early change rates of HA, SDC-1, and HS have high predictive value for organ dysfunction in sepsis patients, with the combined predictive value being the most significant. The study conclusion points out that the increased levels of HA, SDC-1, HS, and other degradation products of polysaccharide coatings in the early stage of sepsis are positively associated with the occurrence of organ dysfunction. Clinicians can utilize the early expression changes of these biomarkers to predict the risk of organ dysfunction in sepsis patients, enabling timely implementation of preventive measures that may improve patient outcomes.
