Abstract:
This study aims to diagnoses bacterial wound infection and to estimate the serum levels of TLR-3, CXCL8, TGF-β1, IL-8, IL-17 and IL-22 in wound patients. This study had been included 140 samples (blood and swab) obtained from patients found in Baquba-Teaching Hospital from 15/ 6 /2023 to 20 /3 /2024. Swab samples taken from wound were culture on the blood agar and MacConkey agar, and then Bacteria diagnoses was done by using an automatic VITEK 2 system. The serum levels of immune parameters done by ELISA. The results shown that sixty isolates were grow in culture, the results indicated of 38(63.3%) isolates of gram-negative bacteria, represented by: 12 (20%) isolates E. coli, 18 (30%) Pseudomonas aeruginosa, 6 (10%) Protus spp., 2 (3.3%) Acinetobacter spp. the results indicated of 22 (36.6%) isolates of gram-positive bacteria, represented by: 16 (26.6%) isolates Staphylococcus aureus, 4 (6.6 %) another Staphylococcus spp., 2 (3.3%) Enterococcus spp. The study also shown the a increase in the concentration of TLR-3 , CXCL8 , IL-2 , IL-17 and IL-22 in the serum of bacterial patients compared with the healthy, Where the results of the current study show decreases in the concentration of TGF-β1 among compared with healthy. In conclusion, it was discovered that the infection of bacteria in wound infection was lower in females than males. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and S. aureus were found to be the highly isolated bacteria wound infection, with increases levels of TLR-3, CXCL8, IL-17 and IL-22 in serum in patients and decreases level of TGF-β1 in serum of patients.
