Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between preoperative platelet count and 30-day postoperative complications following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (aRCR). Methods The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement database was queried for all patients who underwent aRCR between 2015 and 2021. The study population was divided into 5 groups based on preoperative platelet count: normal (200-450k, reference cohort), low-normal (150-200k), mild thrombocytopenia (100-150k), moderate-to-severe thrombocytopenia (<100k), and thrombocytosis (>450k). Thirty-day postoperative complications following aRCR were collected. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate the relationship between preoperative platelet counts and postoperative complications. Results 24,779 patients were included in this study: 18,697 (75.5%) in the normal group, 4730 (19.1%) in the low-normal group, 1012 (4.1%) in the mild thrombocytopenia group, 171 (0.7%) in the moderate-to-severe thrombocytopenia group, and 169 (0.7%) in the thrombocytosis group. Low-normal platelets were an independent predictor of urinary tract infection (odds ratio [OR] 2.06, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.12-3.77; P = .020). Mild thrombocytopenia was not an independent predictor of any complications. Moderate-to-severe thrombocytopenia was an independent predictor of sepsis (OR 9.39, 95% CI 1.48-59.47; P = .017), pneumonia (OR 6.62, 95% CI 1.32-33.24; P = .022), and nonhome discharge (OR 3.34, 95% CI 1.20-9.25; P = .021). Thrombocytosis was an independent predictor of urinary tract infection (OR 4.91, 95% CI 1.16-20.78; P = .030). Conclusion Abnormal preoperative platelet counts, both low and high, were independent risk factors for 30-day postoperative complications following aRCR.

Abstract
AIM Through this study, we aim to investigate whether biomarkers like the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) might predict the postoperative first 24 hours analgesic requirement and pain scores of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Material & Method: After receiving the local ethical board approval, records of 67 patients, aged between 18 and 75 years, with ASA classifications I-III who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were retrospectively evaluated to record postoperative analgesic requirements and numerical pain scale (NRS) scores. NLR, PLR, and SII scores were calculated from preoperative hemograms and compared with analgesic requirements and NRS scores. RESULTS The data of 67 patients were evaluated. There was no correlation between postoperative tramadol use and NRS scores, PLR, or SII values (p>0.05). NRS scores and the cumulative 24-hour postoperative tramadol use were correlated (p=0.0001), as it was observed that patients with high NRS scores used higher amounts of tramadol. Additionally, a poor statistically significant correlation was found between PDW (Platelet distribution width) value and tramadol dose (AUC = 0.611). CONCLUSION No significant association between NLR, PLR, SII, pain scores, and tramadol use was detected.

Development and Validation of a Prediction Model for Chronic Post-Surgical Pain After Thoracic Surgery in Elderly Patients: A Retrospective Cohort Study. J Pain Res 2022; 15:3079-3091. [PMID: 36203786 PMCID: PMC9530220 DOI: 10.2147/jpr.s368295] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2022] [Accepted: 08/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose Chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) is one of the adverse outcomes after surgery, especially in thoracotomy. However, the prevalence of CPSP in elderly adults (≥65 years), is still limited. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to establish and validate the prediction model of CPSP in those patients after thoracic surgery, including thoracotomy and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Patients and Methods This retrospective, observational single-center cohort study was conducted in Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, which randomly and consecutively collected 577 elderly patients who underwent thoracic surgery between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2020. According to the Akaike information criterion, the prediction model was built based on all the data and was validated by calibration with 500 bootstrap samples. Results The mean age of participants was 69.09±3.80 years old, and 63.1% were male. The prevalence of CPSP was 26.9%. Age more than 75 years, BMI, blood loss, longer length of hospital stays, and higher pre-operative neutrophil count were associated with CPSP. Except for these factors, we incorporated history of drinking to build up the prediction model. The areas under the curve (AUCs) of the prediction models were 0.66 (95% CI, 0.61–0.71) and 0.64 (95% CI, 0.59–0.69) in the observational and validation cohorts, respectively. And the calibration curve of the predictive model showed a good fit between the predicted risk of CPSP and observed outcomes in elderly patients. Conclusion The present developed model may help clinicians to find high-risk elderly patients with CPSP after thoracic surgery and take corresponding measures in advance to reduce the incidence of CPSP and improve their life quality.

Osunronbi T, Lusta H, Borbas B, Sofela A, Sharma H. Does Preoperative Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio Predict Patient-Reported Pain and Functional Outcomes at 12 Months After Lumbar Fusion? Int J Spine Surg 2022; 16:8290.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been described in various fields to predict pain outcomes, but its prognostic utility for pain/functional outcomes after spine surgery is unclear. OBJECTIVE To determine the relationship between preoperative NLR and pain/functional outcomes at 12 months after lumbar fusion. METHODS We performed a single-center retrospective study of 53 patients who underwent lumbar fusion and collected demographic data including age, sex, body mass index, smoking status, spinal levels operated, and preoperative NLR. Visual analog scale (VAS) for back and leg pain and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) at baseline and 12 months after lumbar fusion were also collected. The outcome measures were the occurrence of a clinically important improvement in VAS and ODI scores at 12 months. Binary logistic regression was used to estimate the associations of demographic factors and NLR with improvement in VAS and ODI scores. A P value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS There were no statistically significant associations between preoperative NLR and improvement in VAS or ODI scores. A unit increase in baseline VAS back pain score was associated with a 56% increase in the odds of improvement in back pain (OR: 1.56, 95% CI: 1.04-2.35, P = 0.03). Compared to male patients, female patients had 12 times greater odds of an improvement in leg pain (OR: 12.0, 95% CI: 1.3-110, P = 0.03). CONCLUSION Preoperative NLR does not predict patient-reported pain/functional outcomes at 12 months after lumbar fusion. Large-scale prospective multicenter studies are warranted to confirm our findings.

Abstract
Arthroscopic superior capsular reconstruction is an innovative technique for the irreparable rotator cuff tears, but spontaneous pneumothorax after surgery is very rare. The present case was a 66-year-old female with irreparable rotator cuff tears of the right shoulder, treated with the arthroscopic shoulder superior capsular reconstruction. The general anesthesia and operation went smoothly, but the patient experienced stuffiness in the chest and shortness of breath after recovery from anesthesia. Thoracic CT scans showed spontaneous pneumothorax in the right side, which was successfully treated by the conservative treatments (oxygen therapy) according to multidisciplinary team. Prompt and accurate early-stage diagnosis is necessary in controlling postoperative complications and standardized treatment is the key to relieve the suffering. Spontaneous pneumothorax after arthroscopic shoulder surgery has been rarely reported in previous literatures.

The Serum from Patients with Secondary Frozen Shoulder Following Rotator Cuff Repair Induces Shoulder Capsule Fibrosis and Promotes Macrophage Polarization and Fibroblast Activation. J Inflamm Res 2021; 14:1055-1068. [PMID: 33790620 PMCID: PMC8001608 DOI: 10.2147/jir.s304555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Disorders with systematic inflammation were prognostic for secondary frozen shoulder (sFS) following rotator cuff repair (RCR); however, how systematic inflammation affects sFS remains unclear. The aim of this study was to observe the effect of pre-operative serum from patients with sFS and the serum from those without on shoulder capsule in mice, and on macrophages and fibroblasts in vitro. METHODS Serum samples of a consecutive cohort of patients for RCR were collected pre-operatively. Three months after RCR, patients who developed sFS (Group S) were identified. Serum samples from gender- and age-matched controls without sFS (group NS) were also picked out. Firstly, the effect of serum on shoulder capsule fibrosis was observed histologically and biomechanically in a mouse model of RCR. Secondly, the roles of the serum on macrophage polarization and fibroblast activation were investigated, and the potentially involved signaling pathways were identified. Finally, inflammation and fibrosis-related cytokines in serum were quantified. RESULTS In our cohort, all patients had free pre-operative shoulder range of motion. Seven patients developed sFS at 3 months after surgery. Seven matched patients without sFS were selected as control. The inter-group difference of basic characteristics was not significant. Compared to the serum of group NS, the serum of group S significantly induced hypercellularity, capsular thickening, and range of motion deficiency in mice shoulders after RCR. Compared to the serum of group NS, samples of group S significantly promoted M2 polarization of THP-1 human macrophages and the activation of human capsule-derived fibroblasts. Meanwhile, Smad3 and p-Smad3 in macrophages and fibroblasts were significantly up-regulated. On the other hand, levels of inflammation and fibrosis-related cytokines were not significantly different between serum in group S and group NS. CONCLUSION Although all patients in this cohort had free range of motion pre-operatively, the pre-operative serum from patients with sFS at 3 months after RCR could act as a trigger of shoulder capsule fibrosis post-operatively. This effect may be related to its promotion on macrophage polarization to M2 phenotype and fibroblast activation.
