Abstract
BACKGROUND Here we compare the difference in recent outcomes between the use of Maryland forceps (MF) and electrocoagulation hooks (EH) in robotic-assisted thoracoscopic radical lung cancer resection. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 247 patients with lung cancer who underwent robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery from February 2018 to December 2022. On the basis of the intraoperative use of energy devices, we divided the clinical data into two groups, including 84 cases in the MF group and 163 cases in the EH group, respectively. The patients in the two groups were matched with propensity score matching analysis, and further, the perioperative clinical data of the two groups were compared. RESULTS Compared with the EH group, patients in the MF group had shorter operative time, lesser intraoperative bleeding, shorter postoperative drainage time, and shorter postoperative hospital stay (P < 0.05). By comparing the intraoperative and postoperative complications in the two groups, it was found that the incidence of intraoperative lymph node fragmentation, the incidence of postoperative celiac disease, and the incidence of postoperative food choking were significantly lower in the MF group than that in the EH group. The increase of CRP, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α levels in the MF group was less than that in the EH group. CONCLUSIONS The use of MF in robotic-assisted thoracoscopic radical lung cancer surgery is safe and effective, with advantages in lymph node dissection, reduced surgical trauma, and fewer postoperative complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE To understand the systemic effect of major spine surgery, we investigated stress, anabolic and catabolic hormonal levels and their association with interleukin 6 (IL-6) in patients undergoing elective lumbar spine fusion surgery. METHODS Blood samples were collected preoperatively, and at 1, 3, 42, 90 days postoperatively (POD) from 49 patients who underwent elective lumbar spine fusion surgery. RESULTS Serum concentration of cortisol was below the preoperative value at POD 1 but did not differ from the baseline values thereafter. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) decreased at PODs 1 and 3. Testosterone decreased at PODs 1 and 3 in men, and at POD 3 in women. Sex hormone-binding globulin decreased at PODs 1 and 3 in both genders. No changes were observed in free testosterone or growth hormone concentrations. Insulin-like growth factor 1 increased significantly above the preoperative level at PODs 42 and 90 in women, and at POD 42 in men. IL-6 was significantly elevated at PODs 1 and 3. Increases in IL-6 from the preoperative level to POD 1 correlated significantly with decreases of cortisol at POD 1 but not with ACTH. CONCLUSIONS There were only short-term stress hormonal changes after elective lumbar spine fusion surgery. Cortisol changes after elective lumbar spine surgery are transient and might be partly cytokine induced and non-ACTH driven since there was association between cortisol and IL-6 but not with ACTH and IL-6.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the difference of short-term curative effect between the use of Maryland forceps (MF) and electrocoagulation hooks (EH) in da Vinci robot-assisted thoracoscopic mediastinal tumor resection. METHODS Retrospectively analyze 84 patients with mediastinal tumors who underwent robot-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (RATS) at the Department of Thoracic Surgery in Gansu Provincial Hospital from February 2019 to February 2023. Two groups were divided according to the intraoperative use of energy devices, including 41 cases in the MF group and 43 cases in the EH group. Perioperative clinical data was gathered to compare the short-term efficacy of patients in both groups. RESULTS There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics such as sex (P = 0.685), age (P = 0.165), and tumor size (P = 0.339) between the two groups. Compared with the EH group, patients in the MF group have shorter operative time (P = 0.030), less intraoperative bleeding (P = 0.010), less total postoperative drainage volume (P = 0.001), shorter postoperative drainage time (P = 0.022), shorter hospital stay (P = 0.019), and lower levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and cortisol. No statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of total hospitalization costs (P = 0.123), postoperative visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores (P = 0.064), and postoperative complications (P = 0.431). CONCLUSION Using MF in RATS for mediastinal tumor is safe and effective, which can reduce the amount of bleeding, reduce the degree of inflammatory reaction, and conducive to the quick recovery of patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dysregulation of immune responses to surgical stress in older patients and those with frailty may manifest as differences in inflammatory biomarkers. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine differences in perioperative inflammatory biomarkers between older and younger patients, and between patients with and without frailty. METHODS MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, and CINAHL databases were searched (Inception to June 23, 2020). Observational or experimental studies reporting the perioperative level or activity of biomarkers in surgical patients stratified by age or frailty status were included. The primary outcome was inflammatory biomarkers (grouped by window of ascertainment: pre-op; post-op: <12 hours, 12-24 hours, 1-3 days, 3 days to 1 week, and >1 week). Quality assessment was conducted using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Inverse-variance, random-effects meta-analysis was conducted. RESULTS Forty-five studies (4263 patients) were included in the review, of which 36 were pooled for meta-analysis (28 noncardiac and 8 cardiac studies). Two studies investigated frailty as the exposure, while the remaining investigated age. In noncardiac studies, older patients had higher preoperative levels of interleukin (IL)-6 and C-reactive protein (CRP), lower preoperative levels of lymphocytes, and higher postoperative levels of IL-6 (<12 hours) and CRP (12-24 hours) than younger patients. In cardiac studies, older patients had higher preoperative levels of IL-6 and CRP and higher postoperative levels of IL-6 (<12 hours and >1 week). CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate a paucity of frailty-specific studies; however, the presence of age-associated differences in the perioperative inflammatory response is consistent with age-associated states of chronic systemic inflammation and immunosenescence. Additional studies assessing frailty-specific changes in the systemic biologic response to surgery may inform the development of targeted interventions.

Management Based on Multimodal Brain Monitoring May Improve Functional Connectivity and Post-operative Neurocognition in Elderly Patients Undergoing Spinal Surgery. Front Aging Neurosci 2021; 13:705287. [PMID: 34335234 PMCID: PMC8322980 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2021.705287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Accepted: 06/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is a common condition in elderly patients undergoing surgery. Sedation, analgesia, regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2), and body temperature are known to be associated with PND, but few studies have examined the contribution of these factors combined in detail. This prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blinded study investigated whether anesthesia management based on multimodal brain monitoring—an anesthesia management algorithm designed by our group—could improve the post-operative cognitive function and brain functional connectivity (FC) in elderly patients undergoing elective spinal surgery with general anesthesia. The patients (aged ≥65 years) were randomized into two groups [control (Group C), n = 12 and intervention (Group I), n = 14]. Patients in Group I were managed with multimodal brain monitoring (patient state index, spectral edge frequency, analgesia nociception index, rSO2, and temperature), and those in Group C were managed with routine anesthesia management. All patients were pre- and post-operatively evaluated (7 days after surgery) with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF) and FC were analyzed after resting-state functional MRI. Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) and lipopolysaccharide levels were measured, and the correlation between FC and changes in inflammatory marker levels was analyzed. Mean post-operative MoCA score was higher in Group I (24.80 ± 2.09) than in Group C (22.56 ± 2.24) (p = 0.04), with no difference in PND incidence between groups (28.57 vs. 16.67%; p = 0.47). Group I also showed significantly increased ALFF values in several brain regions after surgery (p < 0.05), and FC between the left hippocampus and left orbital inferior frontal gyrus (FG), left middle FG, left superior temporal gyrus, and left precentral gyrus was enhanced (p < 0.05), which was negatively correlated with the change in serum CRP (pre vs. post-intervention) (R = −0.58, p = 0.01). These results suggest that management of elderly patients undergoing surgery by multimodal brain monitoring may improve post-operative neurocognition and FC by reducing systemic inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In order to elucidate whether serum inflammatory markers identify patients with local surgical site infection(SSI) as underlying disease for recurrent or new symptomatology following spine surgery, we evaluated the diagnostic potential of interleukin-6(IL-6) as a marker of SSI. The diagnostic significance of IL-6 was compared to the standard serum inflammatory markers C-reactive protein(CRP) and white blood cell count (WBCC). METHOD Ninety-eight consecutive patients with readmission due to recurrent or new symptomology after spinal surgery of degenerative spine disorders entered the study. Baseline patients' characteristics and the abovementioned inflammatory markers were collected, and arithmetical means with standard deviation, area under the curve (AUC), thresholds, sensitivity, specificity, positive(+)likelihood ratio (LR), and negative(-)LR with corresponding 95% confidence interval(95%CI) were calculated and correlated with presence or absence of SSI. RESULTS Nine patients suffered from a SSI, whereas the remaining 89 patients had a recurrent/adjacent-segment degenerative disorder without evidence of infection. The most significant parameter for diagnosing a SSI was serum IL-6 (cut-off value > 15.3 pg/ml, AUC = 0.954, SE = 85.7%, SP = 97.3%), followed by CRP (cut-off value = 0.8 mg/dl, AUC = 0.916, SE = 88.9%, SP = 84.5%) CONCLUSIONS: In the case of recurrent or new symptomatology following spinal surgery, serum IL-6 has the highest diagnostic potential for diagnosing spinal SSI.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intravenous lignocaine is an amide local anaesthetic known for its analgesic, antihyperalgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Administration of intravenous lignocaine has been shown to enhance perioperative recovery parameters. This is the protocol for a systematic review which intends to summarise the evidence base for perioperative intravenous lignocaine administration in patients undergoing spinal surgery. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Our primary outcomes include: postoperative pain scores at rest and movement at predefined early, intermediate and late time points and adverse events. Other outcomes of interest include perioperative opioid consumption, composite morbidity, surgical complications and hospital length of stay. We will include randomised controlled trials, which compared intravenous lignocaine infusion vs standard treatment for perioperative analgesia. We will search electronic databases from inception to present; MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Library (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and CENTRAL). Two team members will independently screen all citations, full-text articles and abstract data. The individual study risk of bias will be appraised using the Cochrane risk of bias tool. We will obtain a risk ratio or mean difference (MD) from the intervention and control group event rates based on the nature of data. We will correct for the variable measurement tools by using the standardised MD (SMD). We will use a random-effects model to synthesise data. We will conduct five subgroup analysis: major versus minor surgery, emergency versus elective surgery, patients with chronic pain conditions versus patients without, duration of lignocaine infusion and adult versus paediatric. Confidence in cumulative evidence for will be classified according to the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation system. We will construct summary of findings tables supported detailed evidence profile tables for predefined outcomes. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Formal ethical approval is not required as primary data will not be collected. The results will be disseminated through a peer-reviewed publication.
