Popis: Objective: To investigate the change and significance of serum inflammatory factors, neuron specific enolase (NSE), S100 protein and stress hormone levels in patients with brain diseases. Methods: A total of 115 patients with craniocerebral injury were selected as the observation group, according to the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), they were divided into light-sized group (n=38), middle-sized group (n=40) and severe-sized group (n=37), at the same time the other 120 healthy subjects were selected as the control group. The levels of serum inflammatory cytokines [tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and procalcitonin (PCT)], neuron specific enolase (NSE), S100 protein and the stress hormone cortisol [(COR), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), β-endorphin (β-EP)] of both groups were compared. Results: The levels of TNF-α, PCT, NSE, S100, COR, ACTH and β-EP in the observation group were (145.73±19.24) ng/L, (2.41±0.64) ng/mL, (38.11±12.28) ng/mL, (0.87±0.32) μg/L, (818.87±121.14) nmol/L, (107.38±13.94) ng/L, (126.74±39.04) ng/mL, which were significantly higher than control group, the difference was statistically significant; Comparison of indexes among the observation group, NF-α, PCT, NSE, S100, COR, ACTH and β-EP levels in the middle-sized group and severe-sized group were significantly higher than those in the light-sized group, and the levels in the severe-sized group were significantly higher than those of the middle-sized group, the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion: The levels of Serum inflammatory factors, NSE, S100 protein and stress hormone were significantly increased in patients with craniocerebral injury, the level was related to the degree of traumatic brain injury, which could be used as an important indicator to assess the severity of the disease.
