Inflammatory Marker sTREM-1 Reflects the Clinical Stage and Respiratory Tract Obstruction in Allergic Asthma Bronchiale Patients and Correlates with Number of Neutrophils

Table 5

Correlations of plasma levels of sTREM-1 with investigated parameters.

	Spearman’s correlation test with sTREM-1 (𝑃)	Correlation coefficient
Clinical stage of AB	𝑃=0.0001	0.682
Respiratory tract obstruction	𝑃=0.0001	0.653
Anti-IgE therapy	𝑃=0.001	0.421
CRP	𝑃=0.009	0.499
Total level of IgE	𝑃=0.032	0.290
Leukocytes	𝑃=0.002	0.530
Neutrophils (absolute number)	𝑃=0.001	0.579
Neutrophils (relative number)	𝑃=0.044	0.371
Lymphocytes (absolute number)	𝑃=0.013	−0.442
sTREM-1 per one myelocyte	𝑃=0.0001	0.920

AB: asthma bronchiale, CRP: C-reactive protein. Taking into account more correlated parameters, statistically significant are values when 𝑃<0.005.
