Abstract
We studied the relationship between the neuroendocrine and inflammatory responses to hip arthroplasty and functional recovery in 102 patients undergoing elective arthroplasty for osteoarthritis. Blood samples were collected for up to 7 days after surgery and analysed for concentrations of norepinephrine, epinephrine, cortisol, interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein. The primary outcome measures were milestones in hospital, times to walk 10 and 25 m, pain on discharge from hospital, and function 1 and 6 months after surgery. Walking distances in hospital were significantly delayed in patients with greater interleukin 6 and C-reactive protein concentrations, but few neuroendocrine measures had significant correlations with functional recovery in hospital. Multivariate analysis showed that the interleukin 6 concentration on day 1 was the unique predictor of time to walk 10 and 25 m, and that the day 2 concentration of C-reactive protein was the unique predictor of pain on discharge from hospital. No significant correlations were found between the inflammatory and neuroendocrine variables and recovery at 1 and 6 months. We conclude that the inflammatory response affects immediate functional recovery after hip arthroplasty.

Abstract
The effects of surgery, surgical stress, and anesthesia compromise the optimal function of the immune system. Recent studies demonstrate the influence of anesthesia on the immune response by modulation of neural-immune interactions. To evaluate the immunologic effects of general anesthesia with the hypnotic agent propofol and the opioid fentanyl, two drugs used frequently in anesthesia, we studied 30 patients undergoing elective orthopedic surgery before and during narcosis. We found a significant enhancement of interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and soluble interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) release in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated whole blood cultures after induction of anesthesia. Similar results were observed in cultures stimulated with polyclonal T cell activators, such as staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB) and phytohemagglutinin (PHA). IL-1beta and IL-8 release was not affected, but the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 decreased after skin incision. Serum prolactin significantly increased immediately after induction of anesthesia, whereas serum cortisol levels declined. Our results point to enhanced proinflammatory T lymphocyte and natural killer (NK) cell activity, probably caused by prolactin and cortisol modulation in the serum. This may disturb the balance of human proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory pathways during surgery and general anesthesia.

Abstract
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is used in most, but not all, complex heart operations. CPB is associated with a systemic inflammatory response in adults and children. Many materials-dependent (exposure of blood to non- physiologic surfaces and conditions) and materials-in dependent (surgical trauma, ischemia-perfusion to the organs, changes in body temperature, and release of endotoxin) factors during CPB have been implicated in the etiology of this complex response. The mechanisms involved may include complement activation, release of cytokines, leukocyte activation with expression of ad hesion molecules, and production of various vasoactive and immunoactive substances. Postpump inflamma tion may lead to postoperative complications and may result in respiratory failure, renal dysfunction, bleeding disorders, neurologic dysfunction, altered liver func tion, and ultimately multiple organ failure. Significant efforts are being made to decrease the generation and effects of postpump inflammation. Interventions to this end have included avoiding CPB when possible, im proving the biocompatibility of the involved mechani cal devices, and administering medications that main tain cellular integrity. This article provides an overview of the etiology, pathophysiology, and treatment of postpump inflammation. Perhaps with additional in sight into this syndrome, CPB can be made a safer and more efficacious modality of cardiorespiratory support. Copyright© 2001 by W.B. Saunders Company.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Activation of the inflammatory response is an important factor contributing to complications of cardiopulmonary bypass. Increased level of proinflammatory cytokine - IL-8 has been reported during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) operations with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass. The aim of this study was to find out whether the heart is the main source of IL-8 during early coronary reperfusion. METHODS IL-8 concentration in coronary sinus before clamping and 5, 10, and 15 min after declamping of the aorta as well as in radial artery blood before clamping and 10 min after declamping of the aorta, was assessed in 30 patients undergoing CABG surgery. RESULTS We observed increase in IL-8 concentration in coronary sinus blood after declamping of the aorta, however no difference between coronary sinus and arterial blood concentration was noted. The median value of IL-8 concentration in coronary sinus blood was 1.85 pg/ml before ischemia and 15.4, 20.3, and 29.3 pg/ml in 5, 10 and 15 min after aortic declamping, respectively. Our additional finding was that there was a negative correlation between IL-8 level and hemoglobin saturation with oxygen in coronary sinus blood 10 min after coronary reperfusion. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that the heart is not the main source of IL-8 in early coronary reperfusion, although coronary reperfusion induces its release.

Abstract
Paediatric cardiac surgery often requires cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during the surgical intervention. CPB is known to elicit a systemic inflammatory response with activation of the complement and coagulation systems, stimulation of cytokine production, cellular entrapment in organs, neutrophil activation with degranulation, platelet activation, and endothelial dysfunction. These changes are associated with a risk of postoperative organ dysfunction and increased morbidity and mortality in the postoperative period. Clinical studies have concentrated on measurement of inflammatory markers and mediators in peripheral blood, where the systemic inflammatory response in the paediatric cardiac patient seems to be different from the adult case. Looking at the organ level, experimental studies have the advantage of providing information contributing to a better understanding of the pathological events that may lead to the deteriorated organ function. This review focuses on the systemic inflammatory response after cardiac surgery with CPB in children and experimental CPB models.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Because morphine affects various immune functions, patient-controlled analgesia with morphine may further deteriorate the immune mechanisms after surgery. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine differences between morphine patient-controlled analgesia and a combination of morphine and ketorolac in interleukin-6 and interleukin-10 responses, and in analgesia and morphine-related side effects. DESIGN Prospective study. PATIENTS Twenty-two patients who underwent abdominal hysterectomy were classified randomly into two groups: (1) patient-controlled analgesia with morphine; and (2) patient-controlled analgesia with a combination of morphine and ketorolac. Blood samples to measure cytokines were collected at preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, and 2 hours, 4 hours, and 24 hours postoperatively. OUTCOME MEASURES Plasma was separated and frozen until the analysis of cytokines using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. Postoperative pain was assessed using a visual analog score. Sedation was checked based on a protocol developed at the Samsung Medical Center. RESULTS In the two groups, interleukin-6 increased immediately postoperatively, and it remained consistent for 24 hours. Interleukin-10 concentrations peaked at 2 hours postoperatively and progressively decreased. Cytokine concentrations between the two groups were significantly different for interleukin-6 24 hours postoperatively (p = 0.026) and for interleukin-10 4 hours postoperatively (p = 0.045). Total analgesic use was not different, but morphine consumption was significantly different (p = 0.037 at 4 hours postoperatively, p = 0.015 at 24 hours postoperatively). Pain scores, sedation, and side effects were unaffected by the patient-controlled analgesia regimen. CONCLUSIONS The authors conclude that supplementation using ketorolac plus administration of morphine modifies cytokine responses and may contribute to immune augmentations during postoperative periods.

Abstract
We investigated whether morphine and fentanyl influence surface receptor expression, phagocytic activity and superoxide anion generation of neutrophils in a whole blood flow cytometric assay. Morphine suppressed complement and Fcgamma receptor expression and neutrophil function in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Morphine-induced changes were similar to those caused by the nitric oxide (NO) donor S-nitroso-N-acetyl-penicillamine and were abolished by preincubation with the NO synthase inhibitor N-nitro-L-arginine as well as naloxone. Fentanyl had no immunosuppressive effects. These results suggest that these neutrophil functions are inhibited by morphine-stimulated NO release mediated by the mu(3) opiate receptor subtype found on immunocytes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with a systemic inflammatory response. Endogenous morphine production has previously been demonstrated in humans after cardiac surgery with CPB. It has been hypothesized that morphine plays a role as an anti-inflammatory mediator in the systemic inflammatory response. The aim of this study was to investigate if the CPB procedure in itself elicits an endogenous morphine production in neonatal pigs. METHODS Endogenous morphine production was measured in arterial blood in piglets exposed to sternotomy alone (sham group, n=10) or sternotomy and CPB (n=10). Blood samples were obtained immediately after the induction of anaesthesia, at the end of CPB and 4 h later. Morphine in arterial blood was detected by radioimmunoassay and confirmed by gas chromatography mass spectrometry. RESULTS Animals undergoing CPB showed detectable endogenous morphine concentrations immediately after CPB, with increased concentrations postoperatively. There was no measurable morphine production in the sham operated pigs. CONCLUSION The CPB procedures elicits an endogenous morphine production in neonatal pigs. This morphine response is analogous to the previously demonstrated response in patients subjected to cardiac surgery and CPB.

Abstract
Different anaesthetic methods influence the neuro-immuno-endocrine biologic responses to surgery and may thus possibly interfere with the postoperative course and development of complications. The neuroendocrine system is closely related to the cytokine network. In this study, the effects of general anaesthesia (n=6) and regional spinal/epidural anaesthesia (n=6) on the cytokine response (IL-1beta, TNFalpha, IL-6) to uncemented total hip replacement surgery were evaluated. The postoperative clinical course was uneventful in every case. In both groups, only very low values of plasma IL-beta were measured perioperatively, whereas plasma IL-6 increased postoperatively with peak values 4 h after surgery. The changes in plasma TNF-alpha were not significant. No significant differences in plasma TNF-alpha or IL-6 were found between patients operated in general or in regional anaesthesia. This suggests minor influence of plasma cytokines on the possible beneficial effects of regional anaesthesia on the clinical course after surgery in low risk patients. There were slightly higher TNF-alpha and IL-6 levels after the operation and significantly lower cortisol levels during the operation in the regional anaesthesia group compared to the general anaesthesia group, giving rise to a significant inverse correlation between peak values of IL-6 and peak values of cortisol. This supports the theory that after surgery the inhibitory effect of cortisol on monocyte cytokine production overrides adrenergic stimulation.

Abstract
We explored the mechanism through which patients sometimes show immunosuppression after cardiac surgery. To test the hypothesis that commonly used drugs could cause apoptosis of immune cells, the proapoptotic effects of heparin and catecholamines (dopamine and dobutamine) on peripheral blood lymphocytes were evaluated. Peripheral blood lymphocytes were purified from blood samples of normal healthy volunteers. These cells were cultured in the presence of heparin, dobutamine or dopamine. The apoptosis was quantified by Annexin V fluorescent assay, by DNA content and by morphological assessment. Lymphocytes did not show significant levels of apoptosis induction after 24 hours of incubation with heparin. Both dopamine and dobutamine demonstrated a clear apoptosis inducing effect on lymphocytic population after 24 and 48 hours of culture, in concentrations comparable with the clinically used levels. Apoptosis was time and concentration dependent for both catecholamines. The dopamine and dobutamine effect on lymphocyte viability was due, at least partially, to lymphocyte beta receptor engagement, as proved by blocking the receptor with propranolol. These results suggest that catecholamines could induce apoptosis of lymphocytes. This finding may be associated with immunosuppression observed in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
