Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the association between matrix metallopeptidase-9 (MMP-9) rs3918242 locus single nucleotide polymorphisms and intra-abdominal infection after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Methods152 patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy were enrolled, and the association between 21 factors including MMP-9 rs3918242 polymorphisms and intra-abdominal infection after pancreaticoduodenectomy was analyzed using Logistic regression method. Postoperative plasma MMP-9 levels were compared between different groups.
ResultsUnivariate analysis revealed pancreatic duct diameter ≥3 mm [odds ratio (OR)=0.378, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.163, 0.874, P=0.023], pancreatic texture (soft, OR=3.414, 95% CI: 1.353, 8.612, P=0.009), operative time ≥6 h (OR=3.018, 95% CI: 1.302, 6.991, P=0.010), pancreatic fistula (OR=6.615, 95% CI: 2.708, 16.161, P=0.000), postoperative intra-abdominal bleeding (OR=8.768, 95% CI: 1.958, 39.264, P=0.005), and rs3918242 polymorphisms CT/TT genotypes (OR=0.211, 95% CI: 0.060, 0.737, P=0.015) were associated with intra-abdominal infection after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Operative time ≥6 h (OR=4.181, 95% CI: 1.535, 11.384, P=0.005), pancreatic fistula (OR=9.713, 95% CI: 3.507, 26.900, P=0.000), and rs3918242 polymorphisms CT/TT genotypes (OR=0.166, 95% CI: 0.042, 0.646, P=0.010) were associated with intra-abdominal infection after pancreaticoduodenectomy in multivariate analysis. The patients carrying rs3918242 CT/TT genotypes [(275.2±103.9) ng/ml] had higher postoperative plasma MMP-9 levels than those carrying CC genotype [(240.1±85.2) ng/ml, P=0.005]. Meanwhile, the patients with intra-abdominal infection [(205.6±83.1) ng/ml] had lower postoperative plasma MMP-9 levels than those without intra-abdominal infection [(258.5±82.4) ng/ml, P=0.000].
ConclusionOperative time, pancreatic fistula, and rs3918242 polymorphisms were the independent influential factors of intra-abdominal infection after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Lower postoperative plasma MMP-9 levels may contribute to the development of intra-abdominal infection.
