Transfus Apher Sci 2024; 63:103900. [PMID: 38431440 DOI: 10.1016/j.transci.2024.103900] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2024] [Revised: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Blood transfusion necessity in neurosurgery varies based on surgical type, blood loss, and patient anemia. Leukocytes in red blood cells (RBCs) component release pro-inflammatory cytokines during storage, contributing to transfusion-related immunomodulation (TRIM). Our aim was to examine the impact of the leukocyte content in transfused PRBCs on patients undergoing neurosurgery for meningioma tumours. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS This prospective randomized controlled trial conducted from 2018 to 2020 by dividing patients randomly into non-leukoreduced (NLR) (n = 65) and leuko-reduced (LR) (n = 65) groups based on PRBCs received during surgery and hospital stay. Hospital and ICU stays, mechanical ventilation duration, and postoperative bacterial infections were observed. Hematological parameters and cytokine levels (IL-10, INF-gamma, and FAS-L) were assessed at pre-transfusion, 24 h, and 7 days post-transfusion. Data analysis included Mann-Whitney U test, Friedman test, Fisher's chi-square test, with statistical significance at p < 0.05. RESULTS In our study, ICU and hospital stay duration showed no significant difference (p = 0.06) between groups. However, NLR group had longer mean mechanical ventilation (18 ± 40.1 h) than the LR group (12.8 ± 8.6 h). Both groups showed statistically significant increase in Fas-L level on days 1 and 7 (p < 0.05). The IL-10 levels rose 43% in the NLR group, while and decreased by 7% the LR group on day 1. On day 7, IL-10 increased by 75% in NLR and decreased by 40% in LR, with no significance (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION In conclusion, leukoreduction appeared to offer some immune response protection in term of reducing mechanical ventilation timings and cytokine level changes.

Perioperative Allogeneic Blood Transfusion Does not Influence Patient Survival After Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Propensity Score Matching Analysis. World J Surg 2020; 43:2894-2901.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Whether perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (PABT) negatively influences patient survival after hepatectomy (HR) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains controversial. METHODS Five hundred two patients who underwent HR for initial HCC between 1994 and 2015 were enrolled in this study. All patients were divided into two groups: the PABT group and the non-PABT group. Differences of clinicopathological factors, overall survival (OS), recurrence-free survival (RFS), and the recurrence pattern between the two groups were evaluated. Using propensity score matching for tumor-related factors, liver functions, and surgical factors (total 11 factors), the survival impact of PABT was also analyzed. RESULTS In the entire cohort, 78 patients (15.5%) received PABT such as red cell concentrate, fresh-frozen plasma, or platelets. OS (5-year OS: 55% vs. 76%; p = 0.0005) and RFS (2-year RFS: 47% vs. 56%; p = 0.0131) were significantly worse in the PABT group. The extrahepatic recurrence happened more frequently in the PABT group (15% vs. 5.4%; p = 0.0039). There were many significant clinicopathological differences between the two groups: more advanced tumor stage (tumor diameter, stage III or IV, microvascular invasion), worse liver functions (albumin, indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min), and more surgical stress (blood loss, operation time) in the PABT group. After propensity score matching, 43 pairs of patients were extracted. In this matched cohort, the survival curves of the PABT and non-PABT groups almost completely overlapped both in OS (5-year OS: 62% vs. 62%; p = 0.4384) and in RFS (2-year RFS: 49% vs. 47%; p = 0.8195). The significant difference of the extrahepatic recurrence rate disappeared in the matched cohort (p = 0.5789). CONCLUSION Using propensity score matching, we found that PABT does not influence patient survival after HR for HCC.

Blood Res 2020; 55:91-98.

Abstract
Background Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules are cell-bound but can be identified in a soluble form. These soluble HLA (sHLA) molecules have an immunomodulatory function. We investigated whether natural sHLA in donor serum can neutralize donor-specific HLA alloantibodies (DSAs) in recipient serum. Methods Neutralizing effects of donor serum on DSAs in recipient serum were measured using inhibition assay principle of flow cytometric crossmatch (FCXM), performed using sera from 143 kidney transplant recipients and their donors. The adding of donor serum to recipient serum yielded lower mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) ratios (test/control) than when diluent was added [Roswell Park Memorial Institute (RPMI) or third-party serum], which was presumed to be caused by the neutralizing effects of sHLA. Results In the recipient group with class I DSAs alone (N=14), donor serum addition to recipient serum resulted in lower T cell MFI ratios [2.25 (1.31‒32.51)] than those observed on RPMI addition [3.04 (1.33‒125.39), P<0.05]. In the recipient group with class II DSAs alone (N=27), donor serum addition showed no significant difference in B cell MFI ratios [5.03 (1.41‒103.53)] compared to diluent addition: RPMI [4.50 (1.34‒145.98)] or third-party serum [5.08 (1.44‒138.47)], P>0.05 for both. Conclusion Using inhibition FCXM, we verified that natural sHLA class I in donor serum neutralizes DSAs in recipient serum. However, no neutralizing effects of sHLA class II were revealed in this study. These potentially beneficial effects of sHLA infused via blood-derived products should be considered when desensitizing highly HLA-sensitized patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE Perioperative blood transfusion is common after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and may predispose patients to infectious complications. The purpose of this study is to examine the association between perioperative blood transfusion and the development of post-surgical infection after PD. METHODS Patients who underwent PD from 2014 to 2015 were identified in the NSQIP pancreas-specific database. Logistic regression analysis was used to compute adjusted odds ratios (aOR) to identify an independent association between perioperative red blood cell transfusion (within 72 h of surgery) and the development of post-operative infection after 72 h. RESULTS A total of 6869 patients underwent PD during this time period. Of these, 1372 (20.0%) patients received a perioperative blood transfusion. Patients receiving transfusion had a higher rate of post-operative infection (34.7% vs 26.5%, p < 0.001). After adjusting for significant covariates, perioperative transfusion was independently associated the subsequent development of any post-operative infection (aOR 1.41 [1.23-1.62], p < 0.001), including pneumonia (aOR 2.01 [1.48-2.74], p < 0.001), sepsis (aOR 1.62 [1.29-2.04], p < 0.001), and septic shock (aOR 1.92 [1.38-2.68], p < 0.001). CONCLUSION There is a strong independent association between perioperative blood transfusion and the development of subsequent post-operative infection following PD.

Abstract
Trauma is one of the leading causes of death and disability in the world. Multiple trauma or isolated traumatic brain injury are both indicative of human tissue damage. In the early phase after trauma, damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are released and give rise to sterile systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and organ failure. Later, protracted inflammation following sepsis will favor hospital-acquired infection and will worsen patient’s outcome through immunosuppression. Throughout medical care or surgical procedures, severe trauma patients will be subjected to endogenous or exogenous DAMPs. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge regarding DAMP-mediated SIRS or immunosuppression and the clinical consequences in terms of organ failure and infections.

Abstract
The involvement of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens in the development and regulation of immune response has been well defined over the years, starting from maturation, antigenic peptide loading, migration to the cell membrane for recognition by the T-cell receptor and recycling for immune response cessation. During this intracellular trafficking, MHC antigens find a way to be excreted by the cells, because they can be found as soluble MHC class I (sMHC-I) and class II (sMHC-II) molecules in all body fluids. Although secretion mechanisms have not been sufficiently studied, sMHC molecules have been shown to display important immunoregulatory properties. Their levels in the serum have been shown to be altered in a variety of diseases, including viral infections, inflammation, autoimmunities and cancer, etc. while they seem to be involved in a number of physiological reactions, including maintenance of tolerance, reproduction, as well as mate choice vis-à-vis species evolution. The present review aims to present the thus far existing literature on sMHC molecules and point out the importance of these molecules in the maintenance of immune homeostasis.

Abstract
Novel renal replacement therapies, such as a bioartificial kidney (BAK), are needed to improve current hemodialysis treatment of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. As BAK applications may reveal safety concerns, we assessed the alloimmunization and related safety aspects of readily available conditionally immortalized human proximal tubule epithelial cell (ciPTEC) lines to be used in BAK. Two ciPTEC lines, originally derived from urine and kidney tissue, were characterized for the expression and secretion of relevant molecules involved in alloimmunization and inflammatory responses, such as HLA class-I, HLA-DR, CD40, CD80, CD86, as wells as soluble HLA class I and proinflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α). A lack of direct immunogenic effect of ciPTEC was shown in co-culture experiments with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), after appropriate stimulation of ciPTEC. Tight epithelial cell monolayer formation on polyethersulfone flat membranes was confirmed by zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) expression in the ciPTEC tight junctions, and by restricted inulin-FITC diffusion. Co-culture with (activated) PBMC did not jeopardize the transepithelial barrier function of ciPTEC. In conclusion, the absence of allostimulatory effects and the stability of ciPTEC monolayers show that these unique cells could represent a safe option for BAK engineering application.

Abstract
Perioperative blood transfusion is associated with decreased survival in pancreatic, gastric, and liver cancer. The effect of transfusion in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) has not been studied. Patients with available transfusion data undergoing curative-intent resection of ACC from 1993 to 2014 at 13 institutions comprising the United States Adrenocortical Carcinoma Group were included. Factors associated with blood transfusion were determined. Primary and secondary end points were recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS), respectively. Out of 265 patients, 149 were included for analysis. Out of these, 57 patients (38.3%) received perioperative transfusions. Compared to nontransfused patients, transfused patients more commonly had stage 4 disease (46% vs 24%, P = 0.01), larger tumors (15.8 vs 10.2 cm, P < 0.001), inferior vena cava involvement (24.6% vs 5.4%, P = 0.002), additional organ resection (78.9% vs 36.3%, P < 0.001), and major complications (29% vs 2%, P < 0.001). Transfusion was associated with decreased RFS (8.9 vs 24.7 months, P = 0.006) and OS (22.8 vs 91.0 months, P < 0.001). On univariate Cox regression, transfusion, stage IV, hormonal hypersecretion, and adjuvant therapy were associated with decreased RFS. On multivariable analysis, only transfusion [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.7, 95% confidence interval (CI) 51.0–2.9, P = 0.04], stage IV (HR = 3.2, 95% CI = 1.7–5.9, P < 0.001), and hormonal hypersecretion (HR = 2.6, 95% CI = 1.5–4.2, P < 0.001) were associated with worse RFS. When applying this model to OS, similar associations were seen (transfusion HR = 2.0, 95% CI = 1.1–3.8, P = 0.02; stage 4 HR = 6.2, 95% CI = 3.1–12.4, P < 0.001; hormonal hypersecretion HR = 3.5, 95% CI = 1.9–6.4, P < 0.001). There was no difference in outcomes between patients who received 1 to 2 units versus >2 units of packed red blood cells in median RFS (8.9 vs 8.4 months, P = 0.95) or OS (26.5 vs 18.6 months, P = 0.63). Peri-operative transfusion is associated with earlier recurrence and decreased survival after curative-intent resection of ACC. Strategies and protocols to minimize blood transfusion should be developed and followed.

Abstract
Granulocyte and monocyte apheresis has been used in different immune-mediated disorders, mainly inflammatory bowel diseases. The removal of activated leukocytes and several additional immunomodulatory mechanisms have been so far suggested to explain the anti-inflammatory effects of the treatment. Recent data indicate that, during centrifugation based apheresis, sHLA-I adsorbed to plastic circuits is able to induce TGFβ1 production in activated leukocytes. On these bases, the present study was aimed at analyzing if this model could be applied to a noncentrifugation based apheresis, such as granulocyte and monocyte apheresis. Ten patients with ulcerative colitis were enrolled. Every patient received 5 weekly apheresis treatments. Cellulose acetate beads removed from the column post-GMA were stained by fluorescent anticlass I mAb and examined by fluorescent microscope. Moreover, sFasL plasma concentration, TGFβ1 plasma levels, and the percentage of TGFβ1 positive neutrophils were evaluated before and immediately after each single apheresis. Immunofluorescent images revealed a homogeneous layer of a sHLA-I adsorbed to the surface of the beads recovered following the procedure. sFasL plasma concentration progressively increased both following the procedures and during inter-procedure periods. Consistently, also TGFβ1 plasma levels and the percentage of TGFβ1 positive neutrophils increased during the procedures with a meaningful relationship with sFasL plasma levels. Taken together, these findings suggest that the immunosuppressive effects attributed to granulocyte and monocyte apheresis might depend, at least in part, on the sensitivity of activated leucocytes to the bioactivity of sHLA-I molecules.

Abstract
Platelets are megakaryocyte-derived cellular fragments, which lack a nucleus and are the smallest circulating cells and are classically known to have a major role in supporting hemostasis. Apart from this well-established role, it is now becoming evident that platelets are also capable of conveying other important functions, such as during infection and inflammation. This paper will outline these nonhemostatic functions in two major sections termed "Platelets versus pathogens" and "Platelet-target cell communication". Platelets actively contribute to protection against invading pathogens and are capable of regulating immune functions in various target cells, all through sophisticated and efficient mechanisms. These relatively novel features will be highlighted, illustrating the multifunctional role of platelets in inflammation.

Abstract
Platelets are small cellular fragments with the primary physiological role of maintaining hemostasis. In addition to this well-described classical function, it is becoming increasingly clear that platelets have an intimate connection with infection and inflammation. This stems from several platelet characteristics, including their ability to bind infectious agents and secrete many immunomodulatory cytokines and chemokines, as well as their expression of receptors for various immune effector and regulatory functions, such as TLRs, which allow them to sense pathogen-associated molecular patterns. Furthermore, platelets contain RNA that can be nascently translated under different environmental stresses, and they are able to release membrane microparticles that can transport inflammatory cargo to inflammatory cells. Interestingly, acute infections can also result in platelet breakdown and thrombocytopenia. This report highlights these relatively new aspects of platelets and, thus, their nonhemostatic nature in an inflammatory setting.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Thalassemia major is a common hemoglobinopathy in Albania. However, there are no data available on the frequency of RBC alloimmunization and autoimmunization in transfusion-dependent Albanian patients with thalassemia. METHODS A total of 118 patients with thalassemia receiving regular transfusions were studied during 5 years with antibody screening. During this period, they were exclusively transfused with blood matched for ABO, Rhesus and Kell system. These patients were previously exposed to unmatched blood because of blood shortages. RESULTS Fourteen of 118 (11, 8%) patients developed alloantibodies. Twelve (10, 1%) were already present at the start of the study. Only 2 (1, 7%) were formed after the application of a strict Rh and Kell matching policy. The most common antibody was anti-K, followed by anti-D, anti-C, anti-E, anti-c, anti-e, anti-Jk(b) , and anti-C(w) . Three patients developed anti-D plus anti-C. Anti-K was combined with Rh antibodies in two of five cases. Anti-c was combined with anti-E in two of three cases. The majority of antibodies (10/14) belonged to the Rh blood group system. With the exception of the anti-Jk(b) and the anti-C(w) , all antibodies were already present at the beginning of the follow-up period. During our follow-up, 27 patients (22.8%) developed autoantibodies. A strong coincidence was found between the presence of alloantibodies and autoantibodies. Eleven of 14 (78%) of the patients with alloantibodies had also autoantibodies, whereas autoantibodies were found in 16 of 104 (15%) of patients with thalassemia without autoantibodies. The rate of alloantibody formation dropped from 10.1% to 1.7% after application of a strict Rh and Kell matching policy. CONCLUSION A policy of Rhesus and Kell matching without occasional exceptions greatly reduced the development of new alloantibodies and autoantibodies. Self-sufficiency through regular blood donation is necessary for the full implementation of an extended match policy and the prevention of antibody formation in our patients.

Abstract
The transfusion of platelet concentrates (PCs) is widely used to treat thrombocytopenia and severe trauma. Ex vivo storage of PCs is associated with a storage lesion characterized by partial platelet activation and the release of soluble mediators, such as soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L), RANTES, and interleukin (IL)-8. An in vitro whole blood culture transfusion model was employed to assess whether mediators present in PC supernatants (PC-SNs) modulated dendritic cell (DC)-specific inflammatory responses (intracellular staining) and the overall inflammatory response (cytometric bead array). Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was included in parallel cultures to model the impact of PC-SNs on cell responses following toll-like receptor-mediated pathogen recognition. The impact of both the PC dose (10%, 25%) and ex vivo storage period was investigated [day 2 (D2), day 5 (D5), day 7 (D7)]. PC-SNs alone had minimal impact on DC-specific inflammatory responses and the overall inflammatory response. However, in the presence of LPS, exposure to PC-SNs resulted in a significant dose-associated suppression of the production of DC IL-12, IL-6, IL-1α, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1β and storage-associated suppression of the production of DC IL-10, TNF-α, and IL-8. For the overall inflammatory response, IL-6, TNF-α, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, and inflammatory protein (IP)-10 were significantly suppressed and IL-8, IL-10, and IL-1β significantly increased following exposure to PC-SNs in the presence of LPS. These data suggest that soluble mediators present in PCs significantly suppress DC function and modulate the overall inflammatory response, particularly in the presence of an infectious stimulus. Given the central role of DCs in the initiation and regulation of the immune response, these results suggest that modulation of the DC inflammatory profile is a probable mechanism contributing to transfusion-related complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple studies have investigated the effect of perioperative blood transfusion (PBT) for patients with radical cystectomy (RC), but the results have been inconsistent. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to investigate the relationship between PBT and the clinical outcomes of RC patients. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane library and BIOSIS previews to identify relevant literature for studies that focused on the relationship of PBT and outcomes of patients undergoing RC. A fixed or random effects model was used in this meta-analysis to calculate the pooled hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS A total of 7080 patients in 6 studies matched the selection criteria. Aggregation of the data suggested that PBT in patients who underwent RC correlated with increased all-cause mortality, cancer-specific mortality and cancer recurrence. The combined HRs were 1.19 (n = 6 studies, 95% CI: 1.11-1.27, Z = 4.71, P<0.00001), 1.17 (n = 4 studies, 95% CI: 1.06-1.30, Z = 3.06, P = 0.002), 1.14 (n = 3 studies, 95% CI: 1.03-1.27, Z = 2.50, P = 0.01), respectively. The all-cause mortality associated with PBT did not vary by the characteristics of the study, including number of study participants, follow-up period and the median blood transfusion ratio of the study. CONCLUSION Our data showed that PBT significantly increased the risks of all-cause mortality, cancer-specific mortality and cancer recurrence in patients undergoing RC for bladder cancer.

Abstract
Objective To compare efficacy and safety of laparoscopicnephrectomy (LN) versusopen nephrectomy (ON) in the management of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods A systematic search of the electronic databases PubMed, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library was performed up to October 2014.This systematic review was performed based on observational comparative studies that assessed the two techniques. The weighted mean difference (WMD) and risk ratio (RR), with their corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI), were calculated to compare continuous and dichotomous variables, respectively. Results Seven studies were identified, including 195 cases (118 LN / 77 ON). Although LN was associated with longer operative time (WMD 30.236, 95%CI 14.541 −45.932, P<0.001) and the specimen might not have been resected as heavy as the ON group (WMD -986.516, 95%CI -1883.24–-89.795, P = 0.031), patients in this group might benefit from a shorter length of hospital stay (WMD -3.576, 95%CI 4.976–-2.176, P <0.001), less estimated blood loss (WMD -180.245, 95%CI -317.939–-42.556, P = 0.010), and lower need of transfusion (RR 0.345, 95%CI 0.183–0.650, P = 0.001). The LN group also had less overall complications (RR 0.545, 95%CI 0.329–0.903, P = 0.018). The need of narcotic analgesics between the two groups might have no significant difference (WMD -54.66, 95%CI -129.76–20.44, P = 0.154). Conclusion LN for giant symptomatic ADPKD was feasible, safe and efficacious. Morbidity was significantly reduced compared with the open approach. For an experienced laparoscopist, LN might be a better alternative.

Abstract
Approximately half of cancer patients scheduled for major surgery are anemic. Also, a significant number of patients will present to the operating room with low platelet counts and coagulopathic disorders. Unfortunately, administration of red blood cells, platelets concentrates and fresh-frozen plasma is associated with unwanted adverse effects including fever, hemolytic reactions and transfusion-related immunomodulation (TRIM). TRIM is a multifactorial immunologic phenomenon in the recipient mediated by donor leukocytes, microparticles such as ectosomes, and growth factors. As some of these molecules are secreted in a time-dependent manner, blood storage time may play an important in TRIM, although the evidence is limited. Perioperative administration of red blood cells and associated TRIM has also been associated with increased recurrence of certain solid tumors, such as colorectal, lung, and hepatobiliary tumors. In this continuing education article, we review the available evidence on how perioperative blood product transfusions can affect oncological outcomes, such as cancer recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative allogeneic red blood cell transfusion has been conclusively shown to be associated with adverse oncologic outcomes after resection of nonmetastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to identify risk factors for a perioperative transfusion and to assess the effects of transfusion on survival after curative-intended resection of hepatic metastases in patients featuring stage IV colorectal cancer. DESIGN This was an observational study with a retrospective analysis of a prospective data collection. SETTING The study was conducted at a tertiary care center. PATIENTS A total of 292 patients undergoing curative-intended liver resection for colorectal liver metastases were included in the study. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed identifying factors influencing transfusion, recurrence-free survival, and overall survival. RESULTS A total of 106 patients (36%) received allogeneic red blood cells. Female sex (p = 0.00004), preoperative anemia (p = 0.001), major intraoperative blood loss (p < 0.00001), and major postoperative complications (p = 0.02) were independently associated with the necessity of transfusion. Median recurrence-free and overall survival were 58 months. Allogeneic red blood cell transfusion was significantly associated with reduced recurrence-free survival (32 vs 72 months; p = 0.008). It was reduced further by administration of >2 units (27 months; p = 0.02). Overall survival was not significantly influenced by transfusion (48 vs 63 months; p = 0.08). When multivariately adjusted for major intraoperative blood loss and factors univariately associated, namely comorbidities, tumor load, and positive resection margins, transfusion was an independent predictor for reduced recurrence-free survival (p = 0.03). LIMITATIONS These include the retrospective and observational design, as well as the impossibility to prove causality of the association between transfusion and poor outcome. CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing liver resection for colorectal liver metastases, perioperative transfusion is independently associated with earlier disease recurrence. This emphasizes appropriate blood management measures, including the conservative correction of preoperative anemia, the use of low transfusion triggers, and the minimization of intraoperative blood loss.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To summarize current understanding of the mechanisms responsible for changes occurring during red blood cell (RBC) storage, collectively known as the storage lesion, and to review the biological and clinical consequences of increasing storage time of RBCs. DATA SOURCES Human and veterinary clinical studies, experimental animal model studies, and reviews of the RBC storage lesion with no date restrictions. HUMAN DATA SYNTHESIS Experimental studies have characterized the evolution of human RBC and supernatant changes that occur during storage and form the basis for concern about the potential for harm from long-term storage of RBCs. Although 4 randomized controlled trials of varying sizes failed to find an association between RBC storage time and negative clinical outcomes, a recent meta-analysis and numerous observational clinical studies have demonstrated that transfusion of old versus fresh stored RBCs is associated with an increased risk of morbidity and mortality, particularly among trauma victims and cardiac surgery patients. Potential clinical consequences of RBC transfusion following development of the storage lesion include risk of organ dysfunction, organ failure, infections, and death. VETERINARY DATA SYNTHESIS Experimental animal models have contributed to the evidence supporting adverse consequences of the RBC storage lesion. Studies on relevant RBC storage issues such as the effect of different preservative solutions and leukoreduction have been completed. Transfusion with RBCs stored for 42 days increases mortality in dogs with experimental sepsis. CONCLUSION Storage of RBCs induces progressive biochemical, biomechanical, and immunologic changes that affect red cell viability, deformability, oxygen carrying capacity, microcirculatory flow, and recipient response. Most reports in the human and veterinary literature support the concept that there are deleterious effects of the RBC storage lesion, but additional studies with improved experimental design are needed to identify compelling reasons to modify current blood banking and transfusion practices.

Effects of storage-aged red blood cell transfusions on endothelial function in hospitalized patients. Transfusion 2014; 55:782-90. [PMID: 25393772 DOI: 10.1111/trf.12919] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2014] [Revised: 09/08/2014] [Accepted: 09/10/2014] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Clinical and animal studies indicate that transfusions of older stored red blood cells (RBCs) impair clinical outcomes as compared to fresh RBC transfusions. It has been suggested that this effect is due to inhibition of nitric oxide (NO)-mediated vasodilation after transfusion of older RBC units. However, to date this effect has not been identified in human transfusion recipients. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Forty-three hospitalized patients with transfusion orders were randomly assigned to receive either fresh (<14 days) or older stored (>21 days) RBC units. Before transfusion, and at selected time points after the start of transfusion, endothelial function was assessed using noninvasive flow-mediated dilation assays. RESULTS After transfusion of older RBC units, there was a significant reduction in NO-mediated vasodilation at 24 hours after transfusion (p = 0.045), while fresh RBC transfusions had no effect (p = 0.231). CONCLUSIONS This study suggests for the first time a significant inhibitory effect of transfused RBC units stored more than 21 days on NO-mediated vasodilation in anemic hospitalized patients. This finding lends further support to the hypothesis that deranged NO signaling mediates adverse clinical effects of older RBC transfusions. Future investigations will be necessary to address possible confounding factors and confirm these results.

Abstract
At the present stage of study of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) one of the problem is the definition of new criteria for the topical and systemic chronic inflammation of this disease. The aim of the research was to study the concentration of nitric oxide metabolites, the level of soluble human leukocyte antigens class I (sHLA-I) and of soluble CD95 molecules (sCD95) in the serum of blood and exhaled breath condensate (EBC) in patients with exacerbation of COPD. We investigated 49 moderate-to-severe COPD patients with exacerbation, and 21 healthy nonsmokers. The concentration of sHLA-I and sCD95 molecules was studied in serum and in EBC using the ELISA method. The nitrosative stress was evaluated by the measurement of NO2(-) levels in the serum and the concentration of ΣNO2(2)/NO3(2) in the EBC. Exacerbation of COPD is associated with increasing concentrations of NO2(2) in the serum and of the levels of ΣNO2(2)/NO3(2) in the EBC, together with the changing concentration of sHLA-I and sCD95 molecules in the both biological liquid. An association was discovered between the exacerbation of COPD and the indicators of nitrosative stress, the parameters of lung function and the concentration of sHLA-I, sCD95 molecules. The findings suggest a pathogenetic role of nitrosative stress and of soluble molecules of HLA-I and CD95 in the progression of COPD. The studied markers can be used as predictors of unfavourable prognoses of COPD and as quantitative criteria in the diagnosis of exacerbation of moderate-to-severe COPD.

Predictive factors for perioperative blood transfusions in laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Int J Colorectal Dis 2014; 29:723-8.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic perioperative blood transfusion (PBT) has been associated with higher rates of postoperative complications in patients undergoing colorectal surgery and increased tumor recurrence in cancer patients. Our aim is to evaluate possible predictive factors for PBT, specifically, in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery, in order to identify patients who could benefit from alternatives to allogenic PBT such as erythropoietin administration, autologous blood transfusion, and possibly preoperative blood transfusion. METHODS Five hundred patients who underwent laparoscopic colorectal surgery between the years 2003 and 2011 were reviewed. Patient demographics and clinicopathologic variables were collected prospectively. Other clinical data were collected directly from the computerized records of the in-hospital blood bank. PBT was defined as transfusion of allogenic red blood cells during the day of operation or within the postoperative hospitalization. The associations between PBT and patient variables were assessed by univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS Of the 500 patients, 134 patients (26.8 %) received PBT. Multivariate analysis revealed four preoperative variables as significant risk factors for PBT: preoperative hemoglobin (P = 0.001), lower rectal surgery (P = 0.009), Charlson comorbidity score (P = 0.001), and malignancy (P = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS Preoperative Charlson score, hemoglobin level, carcinoma, and lower rectum pathologies were found to be independent risk factors for PBT in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Evaluation of these risk factors prior to surgery may be helpful in selecting the patients who could benefit from possible alternatives to perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion and help constitute guidelines for a more responsible use of these alternatives.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In the present study, we performed an extensive qualitative characterization of the platelet granule proteome using subcellular fractionation followed by mass spectrometry analysis and functional annotation. Eight-hundred-and-twenty-seven proteins were identified, most of them being associated to granules and to the granule's secretory machinery. Functional pathway analysis revealed 30 pathways, including the major histocompatibility complex class 1 (MHC I) presenting antigen pathway. This pathway was of particular interest for its potential interrelation between platelets and the immune system. Key proteins belonging to this metabolic route such as β-2-microglobulin, 26S protease regulatory subunit 10B from the proteasome and proteins 1 and 2 of the transporter associated with antigen processing were shown to co-localize with von Willebrand factor in resting platelets and to be located on the plasma membrane when platelets were activated. Key proteins of the MHC1 antigen-presenting pathway are located in platelet alpha-granules. These results suggest a possible functional role of platelet granules in platelet-related immune modulation. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE In this study, we described the largest dataset related to platelet granule proteins. We performed a functional pathway analysis that evidenced several expected granule-related pathways. We also highlighted the "Antigen processing and presentation" pathway that has drawn our attention. Using immunofluorescence technique, we confirmed the presence of several key proteins for antigen presentation in platelet granules. This study suggests a putative functional role of MHC1 and platelet granules in the immune modulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Noninfectious and nonhaemolytic transfusion reactions are the most common type of transfusion reactions. Several new tests have been made, helping diagnosis and understanding of their pathogenesis. This manuscript provides a review of the literature on currently available tests in association with the approach in Japan. MATERIALS & METHODS Primarily by using key words, more than 100 pertinent articles in the Medline database were identified and reviewed. RESULTS Numbers of laboratory tests are available including those for plasma protein levels, plasma protein antibodies, leucocyte and platelet antibodies, serum N-terminal-pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels, serum tryptase levels and genetic microchimerism. Cross-match tests, such as basophil activation test and neutrophil activation test, are also available to determine a causal relationship between the reaction and transfusion. CONCLUSIONS Several tests should help to confirm diagnosis and determine causal relationship between adverse reactions and transfusion and to gain an insight into the mechanism of the reaction in some cases, although some of the recently developed tests have not been completely validated.

Abstract
Background and Objective The impact of perioperative allogenenic blood transfusion (ABT) on clinical outcomes for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is conflicting and unclear. The aim of this meta-analysis is to evaluate the association between ABT and HCC clinical outcomes. Outcomes evaluated were all-cause death, tumor recurrence and postoperative complications. Methods Relevant articles were identified through MEDLINE search (up to November 2012). Meta-analyses were performed by using the fixed or random effect models. Study heterogeneity was assessed by Q-test and I2 test. Publication bias was evaluated by funnel plots, Egger′s and Begg’s test. Results A total of 5635 cases from 22 studies finally met our inclusion criteria. Meta-analysis indicated HCC patients with ABT had an increased risk of all-cause death at 3 and 5 years after surgery (respectively: OR = 1.92, 95% CI, 1.61–2.29,P<0.001; OR = 1.60, 95% CI, 1.47–1.73,P<0.001 ) compared with those without ABT. The risk of tumor recurrence was significantly higher for ABT cases at 1, 3 and 5 years (respectively: OR = 1.70, 95% CI, 1.38–2.10, P<0.001; OR = 1.22, 95% CI, 1.08–1.38, P<0.001; OR = 1.16, 95% CI, 1.08–1.24, P<0.001). The HCC cases with ABT significantly increased postoperative complications occurrence compared with non-ABT cases (OR = 1.78,95% CI, 1.34–2.37, P<0.001). Conclusions The findings from the current meta-analysis demonstrated that ABT was associated with adverse clinical outcomes for HCC patients undergoing surgery, including increased death, recurrence and complications. Therefore, ABT should not be performed if possible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we aimed to investigate the effectiveness of pre-storage leukocyte filtration of autologous blood (AB), especially focusing on the cytokines/chemokines accumulation on blood products. MATERIALS AND METHODS After approval of the ethics committee of the University of Tokyo, a total of 26 orthopedic patients, who donated AB prior to surgery after informed consent, were enrolled. The effects of filtration on blood cell counts were analyzed, and the accumulation of cytokines and chemokines were measured on pre- and post-leukoreduced (LR) samples, using the Luminex system. The time-dependent changes of the cytokines/chemokines and the effect of the filtration on their concentration were analyzed, and compared with the normal plasma levels reported in the literature. RESULTS LR effectively reduced the number of leukocytes and platelets, without affecting that of red cells. The concentration of most of the cytokines/chemokines analyzed, except the EGF, sCD40-L and sFas-L, decreased time-dependently of storage or did not change in pre-LR samples. However, EGF, sCD40L and sFas-L were significantly reduced by LR. Some, such as IL-8 and RANTES, were also importantly decreased by LR, and others, such as IL-1β and TNF-α, were not significantly affected by LR. CONCLUSIONS Leukocyte filtration effectively removes platelets and leukocytes from AB, thus preventing the accumulation of cytokines/chemokines. Since adverse effects due to AB transfusion, although rare, are observed, there is need to consider the implementation of pre-storage leukocyte reduction (PSLR) for AB.

Abstract
Many biological molecules in the stored blood were involved in transfusion-related immunomodulation. One important effect was the differentiation bias of immune cells to Th2 type. In this study, we observed the immune regulation of extracellular ubiquitin accummulated in the plasma of whole blood on the differentiation of T help cells in vitro using ELISA and quantitative fluorescence real-time PCR with the help of LPS stimulated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. We found extracellular ubiquitin promoted Th2 cytokine IL-4 production and Th2-inducing transcription factor STAT6 expression, but inhibited Th1 cytokine IFN-γ and Th1-inducing transcription factor T-bet, at the same time, proinflammation cytokine TNF-α was also inhibited. These findings probably contribute to the potent evidence that extracellular ubiquitin plays an indispensable role in the differentiation of T help cells which is crucial to the effects of transfusion-related immunomodulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Blood transfusion during acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) of childhood is scarcely documented. Children with ALL are immunosuppressed by both the disease and its therapy. Transfusion may contribute to the course of ALL through its transfusion-related immunomodulation (TRIM) effect. PROCEDURE Blood transfusion history and response to therapy for 108 children <16 years of age at the time of ALL diagnosis was documented. Clinical files, electronic records, and blood bank registries were scrutinized. Overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) in relation to blood product type and number of transfusions was determined. Hazard ratios (HR) for death and relapse were estimated through uni- and multivariate Cox regression analysis. RESULTS One hundred eight ALL patients were included. Median age was 6 years (range: 0-15 years). Ninety-seven patients (89.8%) were transfused. Median number of transfused products was seven (range: 0-345). After multivariate analysis, transfusion of >5 packed red blood cells (PRBC) remained a significant predictor for death (P = 0.003) and relapse (P = 0.011). For platelets, maximal significance was observed when >30 platelet concentrates (PC) were transfused (P < 0.001). When both, PRBC and PC were considered, maximal significance for predicting death was observed with transfusion of >30 blood products (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The number of blood products transfused to children with ALL appears to be significantly associated with lower survival rates. This may reflect both the severity of the disease and the TRIM effect, which may decrease immune surveillance capacity and the probability of leukemic clone eradication.

BACKGROUND The association between bleeding severity and cause of mortality in the non-acute setting is unclear. We sought to investigate the association between bleeding and mortality subtype, and assess whether this association differs in patients on dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) versus aspirin alone. METHODS Using multivariable Cox proportional hazards survival regression, we examined the association between moderate or severe bleeding and all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality in 15,603 patients with cardiovascular disease or multiple risk factors enrolled in the CHARISMA trial. RESULTS Patients with moderate or severe bleeding had a higher incidence of all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality (P < .001 for each). After multivariable adjustment, moderate/severe bleeding remained independently associated with not only all-cause mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] 1.66; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.24-2.21) and cardiovascular mortality (HR 2.05, 95% CI 1.38-3.04) but also cancer mortality (HR 4.76, 95% CI 2.60-8.69). However, there was a significant interaction between bleeding and potency of antiplatelet therapy for all-cause (P = .002), cardiovascular (P = .02), and cancer mortality (P = .03); in subjects on aspirin alone, moderate/severe bleeding was associated with all-cause (HR 5.27, 95% CI 3.56-7.80), cardiovascular (HR 4.33, 95% CI 2.55-7.37), and cancer mortality (HR 9.01, 95% CI 4.41-18.43), but not in subjects on DAPT (all-cause: HR 1.48, 95% CI 0.93-2.34; cardiovascular: HR 1.04, 95% CI 0.58-1.86; and cancer mortality: HR 1.79, 95% CI 0.56-5.74). CONCLUSIONS In stable patients, moderate or severe bleeding is associated with a significantly increased risk of all-cause, cardiovascular, and cancer mortality. However, this risk appeared different in subjects on single antiplatelet therapy versus DAPT.

Abstract
While transfusion of red blood cells (RBCs) is effective at preventing morbidity and mortality in anemic patients, studies have indicated that some RBC components have functional defects ("RBC storage lesions") that may actually cause adverse events when transfused. For example, in some studies patients transfused with RBCs stored more than 14 days have had statistically worse outcomes than those receiving "fresher" RBC units. Recipient-specific factors may also contribute to the occurrence of these adverse events. Unfortunately, these events have been difficult to investigate because up to now they have existed primarily as "statistical occurrences" of increased morbidity and mortality in large data sets. There are currently no clinical or laboratory methods to detect or study them in individual transfusion recipients. We propose a unifying hypothesis, centered on insufficient nitric oxide bioavailability (INOBA), to explain the increased morbidity and mortality observed in some patients after RBC transfusion. In this model, variables associated with RBC units (storage time; 2,3-diphosphoglycerate acid concentration) and transfusion recipients (endothelial dysfunction) collectively lead to changes in nitric oxide (NO) levels in vascular beds. Under certain circumstances, these variables are "aligned" such that NO concentrations are markedly reduced, leading to vasoconstriction, decreased local blood flow, and insufficient O(2) delivery to end organs. Under these circumstances, the likelihood of morbidity and mortality escalates. If the key tenets of the INOBA hypothesis are confirmed, it may lead to improved transfusion methods including altered RBC storage and/or processing conditions, novel transfusion recipient screening methods, and improved RBC-recipient matching.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The premise that allogeneic red blood cell transfusion (RBCT) contributes to adverse oncologic outcomes after surgery remains controversial. We examined the effects of RBCT during and after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) on disease recurrence and survival. METHODS A prospective database of 220 patients undergoing PD for PDAC from 2000 to 2008 was reviewed and transfusion data collected. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed for factors influencing RBCT, recurrence-free survival (RFS), and overall survival (OS). The effect of amount and timing (intraoperative vs. postoperative) of RBCT was analyzed. RESULTS One hundred forty-seven patients (67%) received RBCT: 70 (32%) received 1 to 2 units, and 77 (35%) received >2 units. Median RFS and OS for the entire cohort was 12 and 16 months, respectively. RBCT of >2 units was associated with reduced RFS (9 vs. 15 months; P = 0.033) and OS (14 vs. 20 months; P = 0.003). Stratified by timing of transfusion, postoperative RBCT was associated with shortened RFS and OS. Controlling for age, body mass index, comorbidities, tumor factors, and major complications, each incremental unit of postoperative RBCT was associated with reduced RFS (hazard ratio 1.10, 95% confidence interval 1.02-1.18) and OS (hazard ratio 1.08, 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.12). Low hemoglobin and presence of comorbidities were the only preoperative factors independently associated with RBCT. CONCLUSIONS Allogeneic red blood cell transfusion after PD for PDAC is independently associated with earlier cancer recurrence and reduced survival, in particular when administered postoperatively and in larger quantities. Blood-conservation methods are especially indicated for patients with preoperative anemia and medical comorbidities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human natural killer (NK) cells are thought to play a role in antiviral response and tumor immune surveillance. The molecular mechanisms of down regulation of NK-cell activity observed after red blood cell (RBC) transfusion is still undefined. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Both effects of blood transfusion (ex vivo) and supernatants (SNs) derived from RBC units unstored (RBC-0) or stored for 5 or 30 days (RBC-5 or -30, respectively) in vitro were analyzed on NK cell-mediated cytolytic activity. RESULTS We have found that NK cells isolated from transfused patients on Day 3 lysed the NK-sensitive target cells K562 to a lesser extent than before transfusion. This down regulation of NK-cell activation was evident also for NK-cell killing mediated through the engagement of NK cell-activating receptors as NKG2D, NKp30, NKp46, and CD16. Transfused patients reacquired NK cell-mediated cytolytic activity from Day 5 to Day 7 after transfusion. SN from RBC-30, but not from RBC-0 or RBC-5, strongly inhibited the generation of lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells and lysis of the NK-resistant target cell Jurkat in a dose-dependent manner. Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) blocking antibodies partially restored the generation of LAK activity. In addition, the depletion of both soluble Class I human leukocyte antigens (sHLA-I) and soluble Fas ligand (sFasL) from SN of RBC-30 completely restored the generation of LAK activity. CONCLUSIONS Altogether, these findings would support the idea that blood transfusion-mediated down regulation of NK-cell activity is mediated by sHLA-I, sFasL, and TGF-β1.

Abstract
AIMS To determine the outcome of colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) patients based on tumour burden, represented by tumour number and size, and tumour biology as assessed by an inflammatory response to tumour (IRT) and margin positivity. METHODS Data were collated from CRLM patients undergoing resection from January 1993 to March 2007. Patients were divided into: low (<or=3 metastases and/or <or=3 cm); moderate (4-7 metastases and/or >3-<or=5 cm); and high (>or=8 metastases and/or >5 cm) tumour burden. RESULTS Seven hundred and five patients underwent resection, of which 154 (21.8%), 262 (37.2%) and 289 (41.0%) patients were in the low, moderate and high tumour burden groups, respectively. The 5-year disease-free (P < 0.001) and overall (P < 0.001) survival were significantly different between the groups. IRT (P < 0.001), extent of resection (P < 0.001) and margin (P < 0.001) also differed between the groups. Sub-group analysis revealed that IRT was the only adverse predictor for disease-free and overall survival in the low group. In the moderate group, IRT predicted poorer disease-free survival on multi-variate analysis. In the high group, R1 resection and transfusion were predictors of poorer disease-free survival and age >or=65 years, R1 resection and IRT were adverse predictors of overall survival. CONCLUSION Resection margin influenced the outcome of patients with high tumour burden, hence the importance of achieving clear margins. IRT influenced the outcome of patients with less aggressive disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In perioperative management of hepatic resection for hepatocellular carcinoma, excessive blood loss and blood transfusion greatly influence postoperative complications and prognosis of the patients. We evaluated the influence of blood products use on postoperative recurrence and prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS The subjects were 66 patients who underwent elective hepatic resection for hepatocellular carcinoma without concomitant microwave or radiofrequency ablation therapy nor other malignancies between January 2001 and June 2006. We retrospectively investigated the influence of the use of blood products including red cell concentration and fresh frozen plasma on recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma and overall survival. RESULTS In multivariate analysis, the dose of blood products transfusion was a significant predictor of disease-free and overall survival. Both disease-free and overall survival rates of those who were given blood products were significantly worse than those who did not receive. On the other hand, in univariate analysis of disease-free and overall survival after hepatic resection and clinical variables, the amount of blood loss was not a significant predictor of recurrence or death. CONCLUSION Transfusion of blood products is associated with increased recurrence rate and worse survival after elective hepatic resection for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have shown that packed blood cells (PBCs) stored in AS-1 (Adsol, Baxter) and AS-3 (Nutricel, Medsep Corp.) accumulate proinflammatory substances, which may contribute to increased complications from allogeneic blood transfusion. This study assessed whether supernates from PBCs stored in AS-5 (Optisol, Terumo Corp.) prime neutrophils (PMNs), activate platelets (PLTs), and accumulate proinflammatory cytokines and PMN granule constituents. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS PBC units were prepared in AS-5 from nonleukoreduced (NLR) and leukoreduced (LR) whole-blood units and stored at 4 degrees C. Supernates from samples of PBCs collected at various storage times were analyzed by multiplex enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for proinflammatory cytokines and myeloperoxidase (MPO) and were incubated with type-matched blood, which was assessed by flow cytometry for expression of CD11b on PMNs, CD62P on PLTs, and formation of PMN-PLT aggregates. RESULTS Supernates from NLR PBCs stored for at least 14 days elevated CD11b expression on PMNs and the number of PMN-PLT aggregates compared to supernates from collection day PBCs. The magnitude of these effects correlated with storage age. Supernates from LR PBCs did not elicit these responses. Expression of CD62P on PLTs was not affected by supernates from either NLR or LR PBCs. Levels of interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, IL-8, IL-18, NAP-2, MCP-1, RANTES, and MPO were elevated in supernates from 28- and 42-day NLR units. Tumor necrosis factor alpha and MIP-1alpha did not increase, and cytokine levels in LR PBC units did not increase. CONCLUSION Units of NLR PBCs stored in AS-5 become increasingly proinflammatory as a function of storage time. Leukoreduction prevents this change.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In perioperative management after hepatectomy, some patients require fresh frozen plasma (FFP) to treat coagulopathy associated with blood loss. However, several studies have suggested a correlation between blood products and pulmonary complications or surgical-site infection (SSI). METHODS The subjects were 99 patients who underwent hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma without plasma exchange for postoperative liver failure in the Department of Surgery, Jikei University Hospital, between January 2000 and December 2006. We investigated the association of 16 factors including age; gender; preoperative ICG(R15); type of resection; concomitant resection of other digestive organs; duration of operation; blood loss; hepatitis virus status; postoperative minimum platelet count, maximum serum total bilirubin (max T-Bil), minimum serum albumin, or minimum prothrombin time; and the dose of red-blood-cell concentration (RC), FFP, platelet concentration, or albumin given in relation to postoperative pulmonary complications and SSI. RESULTS In univariate analysis, pulmonary complications were correlated with gender (P = 0.012), max T-Bil (P = 0.043), dose of RC given (P = 0.007), dose of FFP given (P < 0.001), and dose of albumin given (P < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, pulmonary complications were correlated with FFP given (P = 0.031) and albumin given (P = 0.020), while the incidence of SSI was not correlated with any factors. CONCLUSION Excessive FFP and albumin administration may cause pulmonary complications after hepatectomy.
