Abstract
Delirium in critical ill patients is a complex and common neurological syndrome in the intensive care unit (ICU) that is caused by a range of structural or functional abnormalities. ICU Delirium is associated with reduced compliance, prolonged hospital stays, greater use or delayed withdrawal of sedatives, higher rates and durations of mechanical ventilation, and higher rates of mortality. The aetiology and pathogenesis of ICU delirium are unclear, and the lack of better prediction, prevention, and treatment measures leads to a non-standardized control of delirium. By searching the relevant literature, we aim in this narrative review to describe progress in the pathogenesis, predictive biomarkers, diagnosis, and treatment of ICU delirium.

An Integrated Approach Based on Clinical Data Combined with Metabolites and Biomarkers for the Assessment of Post-Operative Complications after Cardiac Surgery. J Clin Med 2024; 13:5054. [PMID: 39274267 PMCID: PMC11395730 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13175054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2024] [Revised: 08/20/2024] [Accepted: 08/23/2024] [Indexed: 09/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Early diagnosis of post-operative complications is an urgent task, allowing timely prescribing of appropriate therapy and reducing the cost of patient treatment. The purpose of this study was to determine whether an integrated approach based on clinical data, along with metabolites and biomarkers, had greater predictive value than the models built on fewer data in the early diagnosis of post-operative complications after cardiac surgery. Methods: The study included patients (n = 62) admitted for planned cardiac surgery (coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass) with (n = 26) or without (n = 36) post-operative complications. Clinical and laboratory data on the first day after surgery were analyzed. Additionally, patients' blood samples were collected before and on the first day after surgery to determine biomarkers and metabolites. Results: Multivariate PLS-DA models, predicting the presence or absence of post-operative complications, were built using clinical data, concentrations of metabolites and biomarkers, and the entire data set (ROC-AUC = 0.80, 0.71, and 0.85, respectively). For comparison, we built univariate models using the EuroScore2 and SOFA scales, concentrations of lactate, the dynamic changes of 4-hydroxyphenyllactic acid, and the sum of three sepsis-associated metabolites (ROC-AUC = 0.54, 0.79, 0.62, 0.58, and 0.70, respectively). Conclusions: The proposed complex model using the entire dataset had the best characteristics, which confirms the expediency of searching for new predictive models based on a variety of factors.

Integrated Multi-Omics Analysis of Cerebrospinal Fluid in Postoperative Delirium. Biomolecules 2024; 14:924. [PMID: 39199312 PMCID: PMC11352186 DOI: 10.3390/biom14080924] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2024] [Revised: 07/26/2024] [Accepted: 07/27/2024] [Indexed: 09/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Preoperative risk biomarkers for delirium may aid in identifying high-risk patients and developing intervention therapies, which would minimize the health and economic burden of postoperative delirium. Previous studies have typically used single omics approaches to identify such biomarkers. Preoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the Healthier Postoperative Recovery study of adults ≥ 63 years old undergoing elective major orthopedic surgery was used in a matched pair delirium case-no delirium control design. We performed metabolomics and lipidomics, which were combined with our previously reported proteomics results on the same samples. Differential expression, clustering, classification, and systems biology analyses were applied to individual and combined omics datasets. Probabilistic graph models were used to identify an integrated multi-omics interaction network, which included clusters of heterogeneous omics interactions among lipids, metabolites, and proteins. The combined multi-omics signature of 25 molecules attained an AUC of 0.96 [95% CI: 0.85-1.00], showing improvement over individual omics-based classification. We conclude that multi-omics integration of preoperative CSF identifies potential risk markers for delirium and generates new insights into the complex pathways associated with delirium. With future validation, this hypotheses-generating study may serve to build robust biomarkers for delirium and improve our understanding of its pathophysiology.

Abstract
Background: Remimazolam, a new ultrashort-acting benzodiazepine, is becoming increasingly applied in general anesthesia. This study is designed to investigate the effect of remimazolam-based total intravenous anesthesia and sevoflurane-based inhalation anesthesia on emergence delirium in pediatric tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy. Methods and analysis: This is a monocentric, prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial. A total of 90 pediatric patients will be randomized to receive remimazolam-based total intravenous anesthesia (remimazolam group, n = 45) or sevoflurane-based inhalation anesthesia (sevoflurane group, n = 45). The primary outcome will be the incidence of emergence delirium, which will be evaluated using the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale. The secondary outcomes include the extubation time, recovery time, behavior change using the post-hospitalization behavior questionnaire for ambulatory surgery (PHBQ-AS), and adverse events. Ethics and dissemination: This study has been approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the Second Affiliated Hospital and Yuying Children's Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University (2023-K-262-02). Clinical trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT06214117.

Abstract
The underlying mechanism of postoperative delirium (POD) in elderly people remains unclear. Perioperative hyperglycemia (POHG) is an independent risk indicator for POD, particularly in the elderly. Under cerebral desaturation (hypoxia) during general anesthesia, hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is neuroprotective during cerebral hypoxia via diverse pathways, like glucose metabolism and angiogenesis. Hyperglycemia can repress HIF expression and activity. On the other hand, POHG occurred among patients undergoing surgery. For surgical stress, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal activation and sympathoadrenal activation may increase endogenous glucose production via gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. Thus, under the setting of cerebral hypoxia during general anesthesia, we speculate that POHG prevents HIF-1α levels and function in the brain of aged patients, thus exacerbating the hypoxic response of HIF-1 and potentially contributing to POD. This paper sketches the underlying mechanisms of HIF in POD in elderly patients and offers novel insights into targets for preventing or treating POD in the same way as POHG.

Abstract
Delirium presents a significant clinical challenge, primarily due to its profound impact on patient outcomes and the limitations of the current diagnostic methods, which are largely subjective. During the COVID-19 pandemic, this challenge was intensified as the frequency of delirium assessments decreased in Intensive Care Units (ICUs), even as the prevalence of delirium among critically ill patients increased. The present study evaluated how the serum molecular fingerprint, as acquired by Fourier-Transform InfraRed (FTIR) spectroscopy, can enable the development of predictive models for delirium. A preliminary univariate analysis of serum FTIR spectra indicated significantly different bands between 26 ICU patients with delirium and 26 patients without, all of whom were admitted with COVID-19. However, these bands resulted in a poorly performing Naïve-Bayes predictive model. Considering the use of a Fast-Correlation-Based Filter for feature selection, it was possible to define a new set of spectral bands with a wider coverage of molecular functional groups. These bands ensured an excellent Naïve-Bayes predictive model, with an AUC, a sensitivity, and a specificity all exceeding 0.92. These spectral bands, acquired through a minimally invasive analysis and obtained rapidly, economically, and in a high-throughput mode, therefore offer significant potential for managing delirium in critically ill patients.

Abstract
Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based peptidomics methods allow for the detection and identification of many peptides in a complex biological mixture in an untargeted manner. Quantitative peptidomics approaches allow for comparisons of peptide abundance between different samples, allowing one to draw conclusions about peptide differences as a function of experimental treatment or physiology. While stable isotope labeling is a powerful approach for quantitative proteomics and peptidomics, advances in mass spectrometry instrumentation and analysis tools have allowed label-free methods to gain popularity in recent years. In a general label-free quantitative peptidomics experiment, peak intensity information for each peptide is compared across multiple LC-MS runs. Here, we outline a general approach for label-free quantitative peptidomics experiments, including steps for sample preparation, LC-MS data acquisition, data processing, and statistical analysis. Special attention is paid to address run-to-run variability, which can lead to several major problems in label-free experiments. Overall, our method provides researchers with a framework for the development of their own quantitative peptidomics workflows applicable to quantitation of peptides from a wide variety of different biological sources.

Abstract
Malnutrition, hypercatabolism, and metabolic changes are well-established risk factors for delirium in critically ill patients. Although the exact mechanisms are not fully understood, there is mounting evidence suggesting that malnutrition can cause a variety of changes that contribute to delirium, such as electrolyte imbalances, immune dysfunction, and alterations in drug metabolism. Therefore, a comprehensive metabolic and malnutrition assessment, along with appropriate nutritional support, may help to prevent or ameliorate malnutrition, reduce hypercatabolism, and improve overall physiological function, ultimately lowering the risk of delirium. For this aim, bioelectrical impedance analysis can represent a valuable strategy. Further research into the underlying mechanisms and nutritional risk factors for delirium is crucial to developing more effective prevention strategies. Understanding these processes will allow clinicians to personalize treatment plans for individual patients, leading to improved outcomes and quality of life in the intensive-care-unit survivors.

Abstract
Postoperative delirium (POD) is considered one of the most severe complications, resulting in impaired cognitive function, extended hospitalization, and higher treatment costs. The challenge of early POD diagnosis becomes particularly significant in cardiac surgery cases, as the incidence of this complication exceeds 50 % in certain patient categories. While it is known that neuroinflammation, neurotransmitter imbalances, disruptions in neuroendocrine regulation, and interneuronal connections contribute significantly to the development of POD, the molecular, genetic mechanisms of POD in cardiac surgery patients, along with potential metabolomic diagnostic markers, remain inadequately understood. In this study, blood plasma was collected from a group of patients over 65 years old after cardiac surgery involving artificial circulation. The collected samples were analyzed for sphingomyelin content and quantity using high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) methods. The analysis revealed four significantly different sphingomyelin contents in patients with POD compared to those who did not develop POD (control group). Employing gene network reconstruction, we perceived a set of 82 regulatory enzymes affiliated with the genetic coordination of the sphingolipid metabolism pathway. Within this set, 47 are assumed to be regulators of gene expression, governing the transcription of enzymes pivotal to the metabolic cascade. Complementing this, an additional assembly of 35 regulators are considered to be regulators of activity, degradation, and translocation dynamics of enzymes integral to the aforementioned pathway. Analysis of the overrepresentation of diseases with which these regulatory proteins are associated showed that the regulators can be categorized into two groups, associated with cardiovascular pathologies (CVP) and neuropsychiatric diseases (NPD), respectively. The regulators associated with CVP are expectedly related to the effects on myocardial tissue during surgery. It is hypothesized that dysfunction of NPD-associated regulators may specifically account for the development of POD after cardiac surgery. Thus, the identified regulatory genes may provide a basis for planning further experiments, in order to study disorders at the level of expression of these genes, as well as impaired function of proteins encoded by them in patients with POD. The identified significant sphingolipids can be considered as potential markers of POD.

Molecular-genetic pathways of hepatitis C virus regulation of the expression of cellular factors PREB and PLA2G4C, which play an important role in virus replication. Vavilovskii Zhurnal Genet Selektsii 2023; 27:776-783. [PMID: 38213698 PMCID: PMC10777288 DOI: 10.18699/vjgb-23-90] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 08/27/2023] [Accepted: 08/30/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024] Open
Abstract
The participants of Hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication are both viral and host proteins. Therapeutic approaches based on activity inhibition of viral non-structural proteins NS3, NS5A, and NS5B are undergoing clinical trials. However, rapid mutation processes in the viral genome and acquisition of drug resistance to the existing drugs remain the main obstacles to fighting HCV. Identifying the host factors, exploring their role in HCV RNA replication, and studying viral effects on their expression is essential for understanding the mechanisms of viral replication and developing novel, effective curative approaches. It is known that the host factors PREB (prolactin regulatory element binding) and PLA2G4C (cytosolic phospholipase A2 gamma) are important for the functioning of the viral replicase complex and the formation of the platforms of HCV genome replication. The expression of PREB and PLA2G4C was significantly elevated in the presence of the HCV genome. However, the mechanisms of its regulation by HCV remain unknown. In this paper, using a text-mining technology provided by ANDSystem, we reconstructed and analyzed gene networks describing regulatory effects on the expression of PREB and PLA2G4C by HCV proteins. On the basis of the gene network analysis performed, we put forward hypotheses about the modulation of the host factors functions resulting from protein-protein interaction with HCV proteins. Among the viral proteins, NS3 showed the greatest number of regulatory linkages. We assumed that NS3 could inhibit the function of host transcription factor (TF) NOTCH1 by protein-protein interaction, leading to upregulation of PREB and PLA2G4C. Analysis of the gene networks and data on differential gene expression in HCV-infected cells allowed us to hypothesize further how HCV could regulate the expression of TFs, the binding sites of which are localized within PREB and PLA2G4C gene regions. The results obtained can be used for planning studies of the molecular-genetic mechanisms of viral-host interaction and searching for potential targets for anti-HCV therapy.

Abstract
Postoperative delirium is common, especially in older patients. Delirium is associated with prolonged hospitalization, an increased risk of postoperative complications, and significant mortality. The mechanism of postoperative delirium is not yet clear. Cerebral desaturation occurred during the maintenance period of general anesthesia and was one of the independent risk factors for postoperative delirium, especially in the elderly. Hypoxia stimulates the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1), which controls the hypoxic response. HIF-1 may have a protective role in regulating neuron apoptosis in neonatal hypoxia-ischemia brain damage and may promote the repair and rebuilding process in the brain that was damaged by hypoxia and ischemia. HIF-1 has a neuroprotective effect during cerebral hypoxia and controls the hypoxic response by regulating multiple pathways, such as glucose metabolism, angiogenesis, erythropoiesis, and cell survival. On the other hand, anesthetics have been reported to inhibit HIF activity in older patients. So, we speculate that HIF plays an important role in the pathophysiology of postoperative delirium in the elderly. The activity of HIF is reduced by anesthetics, leading to the inhibition of brain protection in a hypoxic state. This review summarizes the possible mechanism of HIF participating in postoperative delirium in elderly patients and provides ideas for finding targets to prevent or treat postoperative delirium in elderly patients.

Abstract
Delirium, an acute change in cognition, is common, morbid, and costly, particularly among hospitalized older adults. Despite growing knowledge of its epidemiology, far less is known about delirium pathophysiology. Initial work understanding delirium pathogenesis has focused on assaying single or a limited subset of molecules or genetic loci. Recent technological advances at the forefront of biomarker and drug target discovery have facilitated application of multiple "omics" approaches aimed to provide a more complete understanding of complex disease processes such as delirium. At its basic level, "omics" involves comparison of genes (genomics, epigenomics), transcripts (transcriptomics), proteins (proteomics), metabolites (metabolomics), or lipids (lipidomics) in biological fluids or tissues obtained from patients who have a certain condition (i.e., delirium) and those who do not. Multi-omics analyses of these various types of molecules combined with machine learning and systems biology enable the discovery of biomarkers, biological pathways, and predictors of delirium, thus elucidating its pathophysiology. This review provides an overview of the most recent omics techniques, their current impact on identifying delirium biomarkers, and future potential in enhancing our understanding of delirium pathogenesis. We summarize challenges in identification of specific biomarkers of delirium and, more importantly, in discovering the mechanisms underlying delirium pathophysiology. Based on mounting evidence, we highlight a heightened inflammatory response as one common pathway in delirium risk and progression, and we suggest other promising biological mechanisms that have recently emerged. Advanced multiple omics approaches coupled with bioinformatics methodologies have great promise to yield important discoveries that will advance delirium research.

Abstract
Delirium is a common postoperative complication among older patients with many adverse outcomes. Due to a lack of validated biomarkers, prediction and monitoring of delirium by biological testing is not currently feasible. Circulating proteins in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) may reflect biological processes causing delirium. Our goal was to discover and investigate candidate protein biomarkers in preoperative CSF that were associated with the development of postoperative delirium in older surgical patients. We employed a nested case-control study design coupled with high multiplex affinity proteomics analysis to measure 1305 proteins in preoperative CSF. Twenty-four matched delirium cases and non-delirium controls were selected from the Healthier Postoperative Recovery (HiPOR) cohort, and the associations between preoperative protein levels and postoperative delirium were assessed using t-test statistics with further analysis by systems biology to elucidate delirium pathophysiology. Proteomics analysis identified 32 proteins in preoperative CSF that significantly associate with delirium (t-test p < 0.05). Due to the limited sample size, these proteins did not remain significant by multiple hypothesis testing using the Benjamini-Hochberg correction and q-value method. Three algorithms were applied to separate delirium cases from non-delirium controls. Hierarchical clustering classified 40/48 case-control samples correctly, and principal components analysis separated 43/48. The receiver operating characteristic curve yielded an area under the curve [95% confidence interval] of 0.91 [0.80-0.97]. Systems biology analysis identified several key pathways associated with risk of delirium: inflammation, immune cell migration, apoptosis, angiogenesis, synaptic depression and neuronal cell death. Proteomics analysis of preoperative CSF identified 32 proteins that might discriminate individuals who subsequently develop postoperative delirium from matched control samples. These proteins are potential candidate biomarkers for delirium and may play a role in its pathophysiology.

Abstract
Owing to the advances in surgical technology, most solid tumours can be controlled by surgical excision. The priority should be tumour control, while some routine perioperative management might influence cancer progression in an unnoticed way. Moreover, it is increasingly recognized that effective perioperative management should include techniques to improve postoperative outcomes. These influences are elucidated by the different functions of circulating biomarkers in cancer patients. Here, circulating biomarkers with two types of clinical functions were reviewed: (i) circulating biomarkers for cancer progression monitoring, for instance, those related to cancer cell malignancy, tumour microenvironment formation, and early metastasis, and (ii) circulating biomarkers with relevance to postoperative outcomes, including systemic inflammation, immunosuppression, cognitive dysfunction, and pain management. This review aimed to provide new perspectives for the perioperative management of patients with cancer and highlight the potential clinical translation value of circulating biomarkers in improving outcomes.

Abstract
Introduction This study aimed to identify preoperative blood biomarkers related to development of delayed neurocognitive recovery (dNCR) following surgery. Methods A total of 67 patients (≥65 years old) who underwent head and neck tumor resection under general anesthesia were assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Preoperative serum metabolomics were determined using widely targeted metabolomics technology. Results Of the 67 patients, 25 developed dNCR and were matched to 25 randomly selected patients from the remaining 42 without dNCR. Differential metabolites were selected using the criteria of variable importance in projection > 1.0 in orthogonal partial least squares discrimination analysis, false discovery rate <0.05, and fold-change >1.2 or <0.83 to minimize false positives. Preoperative serum levels of oxaloacetate (OR: 1.054, 95% CI: 1.027-1.095, P = 0.001) and 2-aminoadipic acid (2-AAA) (OR: 1.181, 95% CI: 1.087-1.334, P = 0.001) were associated with postoperative dNCR after adjusting for anesthesia duration, education, and age. Areas under the curve for oxaloacetate and 2-AAA were 0.86 (sensitivity: 0.84, specificity: 0.88) and 0.86 (sensitivity: 0.84, specificity: 0.84), respectively. High levels of preoperative oxaloacetate and 2-AAA also were associated with postoperative decreased MoCA (β: 0.022, 95% CI: 0.005-0.04, P = 0.013 for oxaloacetate; β: 0.077, 95%CI: 0.016-0.137, P = 0.014 for 2-AAA) and MMSE (β: 0.024, 95% CI: 0.009-0.039, P = 0.002 for oxaloacetate; β: 0.083, 95% CI: 0.032-0.135, P = 0.002 for 2-AAA) scores after adjusting for age, education level, and operation time. Conclusion High preoperative blood levels of oxaloacetate and 2-AAA were associated with increased risk of postoperative dNCR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to identify blood biomarkers of postoperative delirium. BACKGROUND Phosphorylated tau at threonine 217 (Tau-PT217) and 181 (Tau-PT181) are new Alzheimer disease biomarkers. Postoperative delirium is associated with Alzheimer disease. We assessed associations between Tau-PT217 or Tau-PT181 and postoperative delirium. METHODS Of 491 patients (65 years old or older) who had a knee replacement, hip replacement, or laminectomy, 139 participants were eligible and included in the analysis. Presence and severity of postoperative delirium were assessed in the patients. Preoperative plasma concentrations of Tau-PT217 and Tau-PT181 were determined by a newly established Nanoneedle technology. RESULTS Of 139 participants (73±6 years old, 55% female), 18 (13%) developed postoperative delirium. Participants who developed postoperative delirium had higher preoperative plasma concentrations of Tau-PT217 and Tau-PT181 than participants who did not. Preoperative plasma concentrations of Tau-PT217 or Tau-PT181 were independently associated with postoperative delirium after adjusting for age, education, and preoperative Mini-Mental State score [odds ratio (OR) per unit change in the biomarker: 2.05, 95% confidence interval (CI):1.61-2.62, P <0.001 for Tau-PT217; and OR: 4.12; 95% CI: 2.55--6.67, P <0.001 for Tau-PT181]. The areas under the receiver operating curve for predicting delirium were 0.969 (Tau-PT217) and 0.885 (Tau-PT181). The preoperative plasma concentrations of Tau-PT217 or Tau-PT181 were also associated with delirium severity [beta coefficient (β) per unit change in the biomarker: 0.14; 95% CI: 0.09-0.19, P <0.001 for Tau-PT217; and β: 0.41; 95% CI: 0.12-0.70, P =0.006 for Tau-PT181). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative plasma concentrations of Tau-PT217 and Tau-PT181 were associated with postoperative delirium, with Tau-PT217 being a stronger indicator of postoperative delirium than Tau-PT181.

Abstract
Delirium, a common form of acute brain dysfunction, is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, especially in older patients. The underlying pathophysiology of delirium is not clearly understood, but acute systemic inflammation is known to drive delirium in cases of acute illnesses, such as sepsis, trauma, and surgery. Based on psychomotor presentations, delirium has three main subtypes, such as hypoactive, hyperactive, and mixed subtype. There are similarities in the initial presentation of delirium with depression and dementia, especially in the hypoactive subtype. Hence, patients with hypoactive delirium are frequently misdiagnosed. The altered kynurenine pathway (KP) is a promising molecular pathway implicated in the pathogenesis of delirium. The KP is highly regulated in the immune system and influences neurological functions. The activation of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, and specific KP neuroactive metabolites, such as quinolinic acid and kynurenic acid, could play a role in the event of delirium. Here, we collectively describe the roles of the KP and speculate on its relevance in delirium.

BMC Neurosci 2023; 24:9. [PMID: 36709248 PMCID: PMC9883890 DOI: 10.1186/s12868-023-00777-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2022] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION As a common complication in elderly patients after surgery/anesthesia, postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is mainly characterized by memory, attention, motor, and intellectual retardation. Neuroinflammation is one of the most uncontroversial views in POCD. The sevoflurane-induced neurotoxicity has attracted widespread attention in recent years. However, its mechanism has not been determined. This study aimed to observe the effects of sevoflurane on cognitive function and the changes in inflammatory indices and autophagy protein expression in the prefrontal cortex in aged rats. METHOD Before the experiment, D-galactose was diluted with normal saline into a liquid with a concentration of 125 mg/kg and injected subcutaneously into the neck and back of rats for 42 days to establish the aging rat model. Morris water maze experiments were performed, including positioning navigation (5 days) and space exploration (1 day). The POCD model was established by 3.2% sevoflurane inhalation. The rats were treated with or without MCC950, a potent and selective nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inhibitor, followed by autophagy agonists and autophagy inhibitors. The expression levels of inflammasome-related protein NLRP3 and autophagy-related proteins LC3B and P62 were detected to test the behavior of rats with a water maze. RESULTS We found that sevoflurane exposure affected learning and working memory ability in aged rats. We also observed microglia activation in the prefrontal cortex. NLRP3 protein expression was significantly upregulated after sevoflurane inhalation. NLRP3 inflammasome activation induced increased expression and mRNA expression of cleaved Caspase-1 and inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18, and increased secretion of peripheral proinflammatory cytokines. The inhibitor MCC950 was used to improve cognitive ability and inflammation in rats and inhibit the secretion of cytokines. In addition, we demonstrated that significant inhibition of autophagy (decreased LC3-II/I and increased P62) was accompanied by increased activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes and more severe neural cell damage. However, autophagy inhibitor rapamycin administration to activate autophagy resulted in the inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasomes, ultimately attenuating neuronal injury. CONCLUSIONS The activation of autophagy suppressed the formation of NLRP3 inflammasomes. It also alleviated cognitive impairment in aged rats.

Abstract
Postoperative delirium is one of the most common postoperative complications in older patients. Its pathogenesis and biomarkers, however, remain largely undetermined. Majority of human microbiota is gut microbiota and gut microbiota has been shown to regulate brain function. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the association between gut microbiota and postoperative delirium in patients. Of 220 patients (65 years old or older) who had a knee replacement, hip replacement, or laminectomy under general or spinal anesthesia, 86 participants were included in the data analysis. The incidence (primary outcome) and severity of postoperative delirium was assessed for two days. Fecal swabs were collected from participants immediately after surgery. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to assess gut microbiota. Using principal component analyses along with a literature review to identify biologically plausible mechanisms, and three bacterials were studied for their associations with postoperative delirium. Of the 86 participants [age 71.0 (69.0-76.0, 25%-75% percentile of quartile), 53% female], ten (12%) developed postoperative delirium. Postoperative gut bacteria Parabacteroides distasonis (Odds Ratio [OR] 2.13, 95% Confidence Interval (CI): 1.09-4.17, P = 0.026) was associated with postoperative delirium after adjusting for age and sex. The association between delirium and both Prevotella (OR: 0.59, 95% CI: 0.33-1.04, P = 0.067) and Collinsella (OR: 0.57, 95% CI: 0.27-1.24, P = 0.158) did not meet statistical significance. These findings suggest that postoperative gut microbiota (e.g., Parabacteroides distasonis ) may serve as biomarkers in the pathogenesis of postoperative delirium, pending confirmative studies.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Despite discrete etiologies leading to delirium, it is treated as a common end point in hospital and in clinical trials, and delirium research may be hampered by the attempt to treat all instances of delirium similarly, leaving delirium management as an unmet need. An individualized approach based on unique patterns of delirium pathophysiology, as reflected in predisposing factors and precipitants, may be necessary, but there exists no accepted method of grouping delirium into distinct etiologic subgroups. OBJECTIVE To conduct a systematic review to identify potential predisposing and precipitating factors associated with delirium in adult patients agnostic to setting. EVIDENCE REVIEW A literature search was performed of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and PsycINFO from database inception to December 2021 using search Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms consciousness disorders, confusion, causality, and disease susceptibility, with constraints of cohort or case-control studies. Two reviewers selected studies that met the following criteria for inclusion: published in English, prospective cohort or case-control study, at least 50 participants, delirium assessment in person by a physician or trained research personnel using a reference standard, and results including a multivariable model to identify independent factors associated with delirium. FINDINGS A total of 315 studies were included with a mean (SD) Newcastle-Ottawa Scale score of 8.3 (0.8) out of 9. Across 101 144 patients (50 006 [50.0%] male and 49 766 [49.1%] female patients) represented (24 015 with delirium), studies reported 33 predisposing and 112 precipitating factors associated with delirium. There was a diversity of factors associated with delirium, with substantial physiological heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE In this systematic review, a comprehensive list of potential predisposing and precipitating factors associated with delirium was found across all clinical settings. These findings may be used to inform more precise study of delirium's heterogeneous pathophysiology and treatment.

Abstract
Objective To compare the differential metabolites in the brain tissue of aged marmosets after long-term anesthesia (≥ 6 h) and the serum of elderly patients by metabolomics methods. Methods Six aged marmosets (≥ 8 years old) were divided into two groups: anesthesia and control. The aged monkeys in the anesthesia group were induced with 6-8% sevoflurane and 100% oxygen (2 l/min) for 1-2 min and maintained with 1.5-2.5% sevoflurane and 100% oxygen (2 l/min) for 6 h. In the control group (n = 3), anesthesia was only induced under the same conditions for 1-2 min. The prefrontal cortex tissues of the two groups of aged marmosets were collected for metabolomics detection. Twenty-nine elderly patients (≥ 65 years old) who had undergone surgical anesthesia for more than 6 h were enrolled. Serum samples were collected before and on the first day after surgery for metabolomics analysis. Differential metabolites were compared between human serum and marmoset brain tissue. Results The changes in lactate and xanthurenic acid in the serum of elderly patients were consistent with those in the brain tissue of aged marmoset monkeys, that is, lactate was up-regulated and xanthurenic acid was down-regulated. However, serum levels of 5-methylterahydrofolic acid and leucine were down-regulated in elderly patients after anesthesia. In contrast, 5-methylterahydrofolic acid and leucine levels were up-regulated in the prefrontal cortex of aged marmosets compared with control marmosets. Furthermore, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis and pentose phosphate pathway were both significantly enriched in the prefrontal cortex of aged marmosets and serum of elderly patients after surgery. Conclusion The changes of serum metabolites in elderly patients are not exactly the same as the metabolic changes of brain tissues in aged marmosets. The metabolic changes in serum lactate and xanthurenic acid levels can reflect brain tissue metabolism. The enrichment pathways of differential metabolites in the serum of elderly patients and the brain tissue of aged marmosets were partially the same.

Abstract
Objective This meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) for postoperative delirium (POD) in surgical patients. Methods Based on database searches of the Wanfang, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP, Chinese Biology Medicine (CBM), PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science, relevant RCTs published before December 30, 2022, were extracted. Outcome indicators included the incidence of POD, changes in Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) scores, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores, and the intraoperative consumption of anesthetics. Data were pooled and analyzed by Review Manager 5.3, and publication bias detection was conducted using Stata 17.0. Results A meta-analysis containing 715 experimental and 717 control participants from 12 RCTs was performed. The overall results showed that TEAS had obvious superiority with a lower incidence of POD on any day during the postoperative 1 week. In subgroup analyses, the CAM scores on the third postoperative day were significantly lower in the TEAS group than in the control group (MD = -0.52, 95% CI: -1.02 to -0.03, P = 0.04), the VAS scores on the first postoperative day were significantly lower in the TEAS group than in the control group (MD = -0.19, 95% CI: -0.36 to -0.02, P = 0.03), the consumption of propofol and remifentanil were both significantly lower in the TEAS group compared with the control group (MD = -23.1, 95% CI: -37.27 to -8.94, P = 0.001; MD = -105.69, 95% CI: -174.20 to -37.19, P = 0.002). No serious adverse events of TEAS were reported in any of the referenced studies. Conclusion TEAS has an obvious curative effect in preventing POD and pain in the earlier stage of surgical patients. It could be a promising assisted anesthesia technique in the future.

Abstract
Background Delirium is a common medical condition that is highly prevalent in older adults who are at increased risk for its development with any illness, post-surgery or during hospitalization. The purpose of our study was to evaluate the health literacy of older adult patients and their caregivers about delirium, offer a brief educational intervention, and reevaluate their knowledge post intervention. Materials and Methods We conducted a quality improvement project, focused on delirium health literacy in older adult patients ≥60 years and their caregivers. Delirium knowledge of participants was evaluated in a pre-education survey after which they were given a delirium education booklet to read. A post-education delirium survey was conducted within 2-3 weeks of the educational intervention. Chi-square test was used to analyze the knowledge base of older adults. Results The study population consisted of a total of 70 older adults who participated in pre-education (n=35) and post-education (n=35) surveys. Older adult patients and their caregivers had significant knowledge gaps about the potential causes or etiologies, risk factors, symptomatology, and prevention of delirium in the pre-education survey. After the educational intervention, in the post-education survey, there were overall improvements in knowledge base of older adults in differentiating delirium with dementia (43% vs 94%, p<0.01) recognizing signs and symptoms (77% vs 94%, p<0.05), complications (76% vs 100%, p<0.01) and identifying the etiological factors associated with delirium. Conclusion The quality improvement project demonstrated that older adults and caregivers have significant knowledge deficits about the common condition of delirium. This study also demonstrated that older adults were able to improve their health literacy regarding delirium after the intervention. Appropriate education on delirium for patients and caregivers might help in earlier identification, prevention, and better overall management of delirium.

Abstract
Inonotus hispidus is a valuable and rare edible and medicinal mushroom with extremely high nutritional and medicinal value. However, there is no holistic insight to elucidate the molecular basis of the differentiated usage and accurate annotation of physiological maturity to fluctuating yields and quality. This study aimed to figure out the fruiting bodies' metabolites change regulation and potential maturating indicators to distinguish different quality I. hispidus. We applied non-targeted ultra-high performance liquid chromatography and high-resolution mass spectrometry combined and with multivariate analysis and analyzed cultivated and wild mushroom I. hispidus in different growth periods (budding, mature and aging). With the fruiting bodies maturating, 1358 metabolites were annotated, 822 and 833 metabolites abundances changed greater than or equal to 1 time from the budding period to the aging period in abundance in cultivated and wild, the total polysaccharides, crude fat, total flavonoids, and total terpenes increased at first and then decreased. Total amino acids, crude protein, and total polyphenols decreased, while the total steroids increased linearly. The change of metabolites showed certain regularity. Metabolic pathways enrichment analysis showed that these metabolites are involved in glycolysis, biosynthesis of amino acids, organic acid metabolism, glycine-serine-and-threonine metabolism, tricarboxylic acid cycle, purine metabolism, and pyrimidine metabolism. In addition, ergosterol peroxide and (22E)-ergosta-4,6,8(14),22-tetraen-3-one can be used as indicator compounds, and their contents increase linearly with the fruiting bodies of I. hispidus' physiological maturation. This comprehensive analysis will help to evaluate the edible values and facilitate exploitation in mushroom I. hispidus.

The Influence of Orthopedic Surgery on Circulating Metabolite Levels, and their Associations with the Incidence of Postoperative Delirium. Metabolites 2022; 12:616. [PMID: 35888740 PMCID: PMC9319890 DOI: 10.3390/metabo12070616] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 06/15/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
The mechanisms underlying the occurrence of postoperative delirium development are unclear and measurement of plasma metabolites may improve understanding of its causes. Participants (n = 54) matched for age and gender were sampled from an observational cohort study investigating postoperative delirium. Participants were ≥65 years without a diagnosis of dementia and presented for primary elective hip or knee arthroplasty. Plasma samples collected pre- and postoperatively were grouped as either control (n = 26, aged: 75.8 ± 5.2) or delirium (n = 28, aged: 76.2 ± 5.7). Widespread changes in plasma metabolite levels occurred following surgery. The only metabolites significantly differing between corresponding control and delirium samples were ornithine and spermine. In delirium cases, ornithine was 17.6% higher preoperatively, and spermine was 12.0% higher postoperatively. Changes were not associated with various perioperative factors. In binary logistic regression modeling, these two metabolites did not confer a significantly increased risk of delirium. These findings support the hypothesis that disturbed polyamine metabolism is an underlying factor in delirium that warrants further investigation.

Feinkohl I. Post-Operative Cognitive Impairment: A Cognitive Epidemiology Perspective. J Intell 2022; 10:18. [PMID: 35324574 PMCID: PMC8949407 DOI: 10.3390/jintelligence10010018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/29/2021] [Revised: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 03/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Cognitive epidemiology investigates cognitive predictors of health and disease outcomes. Post-operative cognitive impairment is a common complication of surgery but has been neglected as a health outcome in cognitive epidemiology research. This is despite the fact that knowledge of cognitive predictors of post-operative cognitive impairment can be utilized for risk stratification, informed decision-making (in elective surgery), and personalized care of patients during the postoperative period. In this narrative review, the current literature on cognitive predictors of post-operative cognitive impairment and gaps therein are summarized.
