Inflammatory markers may predict post-operative complications and recurrence in Crohn's disease patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. ANZ J Surg 2022; 92:2538-2543. [PMID: 35733396 PMCID: PMC9796487 DOI: 10.1111/ans.17852] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2022] [Revised: 05/30/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Most Crohn's Disease (CD) patients will require surgical intervention over their lifetime, with considerably high rates of post-operative complications. Risk stratification with reliable prognostic tools may facilitate clinical decision making in these patients. Blood cell interaction based inflammatory markers have proven useful in predicting patient outcomes in oncological and benign diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate their prognostic value in CD patients undergoing surgery. METHODS A retrospective single institution study of CD patients who underwent surgery between the years 2008 and 2019 was conducted. Data were collected from medical records and analysed for association of Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR), Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), Lymphocyte-to-Monocyte Ratio (LMR) and the modified Systemic Inflammatory Score (mSIS) with post-operative outcomes. RESULTS A total of 81 patients were included in the analysis. Half were females; mean age was 36 ± 15.54 years. Fifty seven percent (n = 46) were operated in expedited settings, with 23.5% developing post-operative complications. In elective patients, higher pre-operative NLR (P = 0.029) and PLR (P = 0.034) were associated with major post-operative complications, higher NLR (P = 0.029) and PLR (P = 0.034) were associated with re-operation and higher PLR correlated with Clavien-Dindo score (P = 0.032). In patients operated in expedited operations, higher pre-operative NLR (P = 0.021) and lower pre-operative LMR (P = 0.018) were associated with thromboembolic events and higher mSIS was associated with major post-operative complications (P = 0.032). CONCLUSIONS Blood cell interaction based inflammatory markers confer an association with post-operative complications in CD patients undergoing surgery. These indices may facilitate patient selection and optimization when considering the risks and benefits of surgical interventions.

The Predictive Value of Systemic Inflammatory Markers, the Prognostic Nutritional Index, and Measured Vessels' Diameters in Arteriovenous Fistula Maturation Failure. Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12091447. [PMID: 36143483 PMCID: PMC9506395 DOI: 10.3390/life12091447] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2022] [Revised: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: An arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the first-line vascular access pathway for patients diagnosed with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). In planning vascular access, it is necessary to check the diameters of the venous and arterial components for satisfactory long-term results. Furthermore, the mechanism underlying the maturation failure and short-term patency in cases of AVFs is not fully known. This study aims to verify the predictive role of inflammatory biomarkers (the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), systemic inflammatory index (SII), and C-reactive protein (CRP)), Ca-P product, the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and the diameters of the venous and arterial components in the failure of AVF maturation. Methods: The present study was designed as an observational, analytical, and retrospective cohort study with a longitudinal follow-up, and included all patients with a diagnosis of ESRD that were admitted to the Vascular Surgery Clinic of the Targu Mures Emergency County Hospital, Romania, between January 2019 and December 2021. Results: The maturation of AVF at 6 weeks was clearly lower in cases of patients in the high-NLR (31.88% vs. 91.36%; p < 0.0001), high-PLR (46.94% vs. 85.55%; p < 0.0001), high-SII (44.28% vs. 88.89%; p < 0.0001), high-CRP (46.30% vs. 88.73%; p < 0.0001), high-Ca-P product (40.43% vs. 88.46%; p < 0.0001), and low-PNI (34.78% vs. 91.14%; p < 0.0001) groups, as well as in patients with a lower radial artery (RA) diameter (40% vs. 94.87%; p = 0.0009), cephalic vein (CV) diameter (44.82% vs. 97.14%; p = 0.0001) for a radio-cephalic AVF (RC-AVF), and brachial artery (BA) diameter (30.43% vs. 89.47%; p < 0.0001) in addition to CV diameter (40% vs. 94.59%; p < 0.0001) for a brachio-cephalic AVF (BC-AVF), respectively. There was also a significant increase in early thrombosis and short-time mortality in the same patients. A multivariate analysis showed that a baseline value for the NLR, PLR, SII, CRP, Ca-P product, and PNI was an independent predictor of adverse outcomes for all of the recruited patients. Furthermore, for all patients, a high baseline value for vessel diameter was a protective factor against any negative events during the study period, except for RA diameter in mortality (p = 0.16). Conclusion: Our findings concluded that higher NLR, PLR, SII, CRP, Ca-P product, and PNI values determined preoperatively were strongly predictive of AVF maturation failure, early thrombosis, and short-time mortality. Moreover, a lower baseline value for vessel diameter was strongly predictive of AVF maturation failure and early thrombosis.

Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio and Platelet-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Impact on Predicting Outcomes in Patients with Acute Limb Ischemia. Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12060822. [PMID: 35743853 PMCID: PMC9225565 DOI: 10.3390/life12060822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 05/21/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Acute Limb Ischemia (ALI) of the lower limb is defined as a sudden drop in arterial limb perfusion, which is a medical emergency requiring prompt intervention with high amputation and mortality rates in the absence of revascularization. This observational, analytical, and retrospective cohort study with longitudinal follow-up aimed to confirm the relevance of the preoperative inflammatory biomarkers neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) in predicting the 30-day poor prognosis of patients with Rutherford classification (RC) grades II and III ALI. The ROC analysis found a strong association of an NLR > 4.33 with all studied outcomes, while a PLR > 143.34 was associated with all studied outcomes, except the composite endpoint in all RC stages. Depending on the optimal cut-off value, the ROC analysis found a higher incidence of all adverse outcomes in all high NLR (>4.33) and high PLR (>143.34) groups. A multivariate analysis showed that a high baseline value for NLR and PLR was an independent predictor of amputation (OR:11.09; 95% CI: 5.48−22.42; p < 0.0001; and OR:8.97; 95% CI: 4.44−18.16; p < 0.0001), mortality (OR:22.24; 95% CI: 9.61−51.47; p < 0.0001; and OR:8.32; 95% CI: 3.90−17.73; p < 0.0001), and composite endpoint (OR:21.93; 95% CI: 7.91−60.79; p < 0.0001; and OR:9.98; 95% CI: 3.89−25.55; p < 0.0001), respectively. Furthermore, for all hospitalized patients, the RC grade III (OR:7.33; 95% CI: 3.73−14.26; p < 0.0001) was an independent predictor of amputation (OR:7.33; 95% CI: 3.73−14.26; p < 0.0001), mortality (OR:8.40; 95% CI: 4.08−17.31; p < 0.0001), and composite endpoint (OR: 10.70; 95% CI: 4.48−25.56; p < 0.0001), respectively. The NLR and PLR are excellent predictors of risks associated with ALI for primary and secondary prevention. Our study showed that increased pre-operative values for NLR and PLR are indicators of a poor outcome in patients with RC grades II and III ALI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The predictive values of the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and red cell distribution width (RDW) have been demonstrated in different types of abdominal surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate the interest of the preoperative PLR and RDW as predictors of 30-day postoperative complications in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI). METHODS Clinical data of 105 AMI patients were retrospectively reviewed. Postoperative complications were evaluated by the Clavien-Dindo classification. The cutoff values for neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), PLR, and RDW were determined by receiver operating characteristic curves. Univariate and multivariate analyses evaluating the risk factors for postoperative complications were performed. RESULTS In the univariate analyses, advanced age, female, anemia, high white blood cell (WBC), high PLR, high NLR, high RDW, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) score ≥2, and bowel resection were associated with the postoperative complications. A multivariable analysis revealed that advanced age, high PLR, high RDW, and bowel resection were independent predictors of postoperative complications. CONCLUSIONS The PLR and RDW might play important roles in evaluation of the risk of postoperative complications in AMI patients. The preoperative PLR and RDW are simple and useful predictors of postoperative complications in AMI patients.

Abstract
Chimney endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (ch-EVAR) has become a valid alternative to treat complex aneurysms but the occurrence of contrast-induced kidney injury (CI-AKI) is poorly known. This study investigated the incidence and the impact of CI-AKI on post-operative outcomes after ch-EVAR. Consecutive patients who underwent ch-EVAR between July 2010 and 2021 were retrospectively included. CI-AKI was defined based on plasma creatinine levels within 7 days after the intervention according to the "Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes" (KDIGO) classification. Among 102 patients included, CI-AKI occurred in 14 cases (13.7%). The 30-day post-operative mortality and complications were significantly higher in patients who developed CI-AKI compared with those who did not (50 vs 9.1%, P = .001 and 57.1 vs 20.5%, P = .007). Over a median follow-up of 24 months (3-39), overall mortality was also significantly higher (78.6 vs 33.0%, P = .002). The pre-operative platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) was significantly higher in patients who developed CI-AKI (224.5 vs 147.6, P = .008). CI-AKI is frequent after ch-EVAR and is associated with worse post-operative outcomes. This should increase awareness of clinicians to optimize preventive and therapeutic strategies.

Preoperative Neutrophil to Lymphocyte Ratio, Platelet to Lymphocyte Ratio, and Mean Platelet Volume as Predictors of 1-Year Mortality in Patients Undergoing an Open Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms: A Retrospective Study. J Clin Med 2021; 10:jcm10225410. [PMID: 34830692 PMCID: PMC8625427 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10225410] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2021] [Revised: 11/10/2021] [Accepted: 11/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives: To investigate if preoperative neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), or mean platelet volume (MPV) could be used to predict 1-year mortality in patients undergoing open abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 382 patients who underwent open AAA repair between January 2008 and July 2019. We divided the patients into two groups based on 1-year mortality and compared the preoperative NLR, PLR, and MPV. The patients were then classified into tertiles based on their preoperative NLR (first tertile: <2.41 (n = 111); second tertile: 2.41 ≤ NLR ≤ 6.07 (n = 111); and third tertile: >6.07 (n = 112)). We compared the incidence of mortality and morbidity across the aforementioned tertiles. We performed a stepwise logistic regression analysis to evaluate the predictors for mortality. An additional subgroup analysis was performed by dividing the cases into non-ruptured and ruptured cases. Results: The preoperative NLR was significantly higher in the non-survivor group than in the survivor group (10.53 ± 7.60 vs. 5.76 ± 6.44, respectively, p = 0.003). The PLR and MPV were similar between the groups (145.35 ± 91.11 vs. 154.20 ± 113.19, p = 0.626, 9.38 ± 1.20 vs. 9.11 ± 1.39, p = 0.267, respectively). The incidence of 1-year mortality was 2.7%, 9.0%, and 14.3% in the first, second, and third NLR tertiles, respectively (p = 0.009). Higher NLR (odds ratio 1.085, 95% confidence interval 1.016–1.159, p = 0.015) and ruptured AAA (odds ratio 2.706, 95% confidence interval 1.097–6.673, p = 0.031) were the independent predictors of 1-year mortality in all patients. Moreover, the preoperative NLR was significantly higher in the ruptured AAA than in the non-ruptured AAA group (11.17 ± 7.90 vs. 4.10 ± 4.75, p < 0.001). In subgroup analysis, preoperative NLR (odds ratio 1.144, 95% confidence interval 1.031–1.271, p = 0.012) and PLR (odds ratio 0.986, 95% confidence interval 16 0.975–0.998, p = 0.017) was an independent predictor for 1-year mortality in ruptured cases. Conclusions: We demonstrated an independent relationship between the preoperative NLR and 1-year mortality in patients undergoing open AAA repair, besides PLR and MPV. Furthermore, the NLR and PLR had predictive power for 1-year mortality in ruptured cases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to investigate the potential association of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) with the primary patency of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in hemodialysis arteriovenous fistula (AVF) stenosis. METHODS This study conducted a retrospective review of patients with end-stage renal disease referred for hemodialysis AVF stenosis in one center. The study consisted of 114 patients with significant (significant stenosis was defined as a reduction in the caliber of the fistula vein of > 50% with respect to the non-aneurysmal venous segment). AVF stenosis patients were treated with PTA, with conventional balloon angioplasty. The NLR and PLR were calculated from the pre-interventional blood samples. The patients were classified into two groups: group A, primary patency < 12 months (n = 35) and group B, and primary patency ≥ 12 months (n = 79). Comparisons between the groups were performed using the Mann-Whitney U test. Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to compare the factors, NLR and PLR, for association with primary patency AVFs. A receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to identify the sensitivity and specificity of the NLR and PLR cut-off values in the prediction of primary patency time. RESULTS There was no difference in gender; age; side of AVF; AVF type; comorbid diseases such as diabetes mellitus and hypertension; or blood parameters such as white cell count, erythrocytes, hemoglobin, neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, C-reactive protein, NLR, or PLR between the two groups (p > 0.05). There was also no significant difference in the patency rate between the NLR < 4.13 and NLR ≥ 4.13 groups at 12 months (NLR cut-off point = 4.13, p = 0.273). There were statistically significant differences between the primary patency rates of the PLR < 187.86 and PLR ≥ 187.86 groups at 12 months (PLR cut-off point = 187.86, p = 0.023). The cut-off value for PLR for the determination of primary patency was 187.86, with a sensitivity of 57.0% and specificity of 34.4%. CONCLUSION An increased level of PLR may be a risk factor for the development of early AVF restenosis after successful PTA. However, more studies are needed to validate this finding.

Abstract
Background Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been reported to aberrantly express in coronary artery disease (CAD). Due to their special structures, circRNAs have the potential to be specific and stable markers. We conducted this study to explore circZNF609's function in atherosclerosis and to evaluate its predictive values for CAD. Methods About 330 CAD patients and 209 controls were enrolled and the expression of circZNF609 in peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) was detected by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Spearman correlation, multivariate regression, multivariate logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were performed. Moreover, circZNF609 was overexpressed in mice macrophage RAW264.7 to investigate its influence on inflammatory cytokines. Finally, bioinformatics analysis was executed to excavate the potential downstream pathway of circZNF609. Results The expression level of circZNF609 in PBLs of CAD patients was significantly decreased compared with the controls (the fold changes of 0.4133, P<0.0001). The logistic regression analysis showed that decreased circZNF609 expressions were independently associated with increased risks of CAD. The area under the ROC curve was 0.761 (95% CI: 0.721-0.800, P<0.0001). Furthermore, the circZNF609 expression level was correlated with C-reactive protein (r=-0.138, P=0.026) and lymphocyte counts (r=0.16, P=0.01). After overexpression of circZNF609 in RAW264.7 cells, the expression level of IL-6 (P<0.001) and TNF-α (P<0.01) were significantly decreased and IL-10 was significantly increased (P<0.001). Bioinformatics analysis suggested that the abnormal expression of circZNF609 might probably sponge miRNA to modulate the inflammation cytokines. Conclusions CircRNA ZNF609 played an anti-inflammatory role and was an independent protective factor for CAD. It represented a moderate diagnostic value and might provide a new therapeutic target for CAD.

Preoperative neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio and platelet to lymphocyte ratio are associated with major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in coronary heart disease patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2020; 20:230.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative risk prediction in patients at elevated cardiovascular risk shows limited accuracy. Platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) indicate systemic inflammation. Both have been investigated for outcome prediction in the field of oncology and cardiovascular medicine, as well as risk prediction of adverse cardiovascular events in non-surgical patients at increased cardiovascular risk. METHODS For this post-hoc analysis, we included all 38 coronary heart disease patients from the Leukocytes and Cardiovascular Perioperative Events cohort-1 study scheduled for elective non-cardiac surgery. We evaluated preoperative differential blood counts for association with major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) defined as the composite endpoint of death, myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery, or embolic or thrombotic stroke within 30 days after surgery. We used Youden's index to calculate cut-off values for PLR and NLR. Additive risk-predictive values were assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve and net reclassification (NRI) improvement analyses. RESULTS Patients with the composite endpoint MACCE had higher PLR and NLR (309 [206; 380] vs. 160 [132; 203], p = 0.001; 4.9 [3.5; 8.1] vs. 2.6 [2.2; 3.4]), p = 0.001). Calculated cut-offs for PLR > 204.4 and NLR > 3.1 were associated with increased risk of 30-day MACCE (OR 7, 95% CI [1.2; 44.7], p = 0.034; OR 36, 95% CI [1.8; 686.6], p = 0.001). Furthermore, NLR improved risk prediction in coronary heart disease patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery when combined with hs-cTnT or NT-proBNP (NRI total = 0.23, p = 0.008, NRI total = 0.26, p = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS Both PLR and NLR were associated with perioperative cardiovascular adverse events in coronary heart disease patients. NLR proved to be of additional value for preoperative risk stratification. Both PLR and NLR could be used as inexpensive and broadly available tools for perioperative risk assessment.

Abstract
Introduction Acute mesenteric ischemia is associated with high rates of mortality. The aim of this study was to investigate the prognostic value of the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) on 30-day outcomes in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia. Material and methods Consecutive patients who were admitted for an acute mesenteric ischemia were retrospectively included. The full white blood count at the time of admission to the hospital was recorded. The population was divided into 4 subgroups according to the quartiles of the NLR and the PLR. The 30-day outcomes including the mortality and the complications were compared among the subgroups. Results In total, 106 patients were included. A surgical treatment including revascularization and/or digestive resection was performed for 56 patients (52.8%). The 30-day all-cause mortality was 72 patients (67.9%). Patients with higher PLR value (PLR >429.3) had significantly higher rate of mortality compared to the other groups (80.8% vs 46.2%, 66.7% and 77.8%, p = 0.03). No significant difference on 30-day outcome was observed among the subgroups divided according to the NLR. Conclusion The PLR, but not the NLR, is a predictive factor of 30-day mortality in patients with acute mesenteric ischemia.
