Abstract
Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass results in global myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, leading to significant postoperative morbidity and mortality. Although cardioplegia is the cornerstone of intraoperative cardioprotection, a number of additional strategies have been identified. The concept of preconditioning and postconditioning, despite its limited direct clinical application, provided an essential contribution to the understanding of myocardial injury and organ protection. Therefore, physicians can use different tools to limit perioperative myocardial injury. These include the choice of anesthetic agents, remote ischemic preconditioning, tight glycemic control, optimization of respiratory parameters during the aortic unclamping phase to limit reperfusion injury, appropriate choice of monitoring to optimize hemodynamic parameters and limit perioperative use of catecholamines, and early reintroduction of cardioprotective agents in the postoperative period. Appropriate management before, during, and after cardiopulmonary bypass will help to decrease myocardial damage. This review aimed to highlight the current advancements in cardioprotection and their potential applications during cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Surgical site infections (SSI) are the most frequent cause of impaired perioperative wound healing, lead to increased postoperative morbidity, mortality and length of hospital stay and are therefore a relevant perioperative complication. In addition to numerous measures taken by the surgical departments, there are anesthesiological options that can help to reduce the risk of SSI. In addition to heat, volume and transfusion management these include, for example, the use of antibiotics and the choice of the anesthesia procedure. This article is intended to provide fundamental knowledge on SSI, shows various options for reducing them in the context of anesthesia and evaluates their effectiveness and evidence based on the current state of knowledge.

Abstract
Use of volatile anesthetics is associated with worse outcome following tumor resection surgery compared with the use of intravenous anesthetics. However, the underlying mechanism has not been clearly delineated yet in vivo. The EO771 cell-based congenic breast cancer model was used in the present study. Isoflurane directly binds to and inhibits two adhesion molecules, leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) and macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1). Similarly, exposure to sevoflurane, another volatile anesthetic and LFA-1 inhibitor, is associated with an increase in breast cancer size compared with non-exposure. Thus, the present study first examined the role of LFA-1 and Mac-1 in the EO771 breast cancer model. Both LFA-1 deficiency and inhibition enhanced tumor growth, which was supported by cytokine and eicosanoid data profiles. By contrast, Mac-1 deficiency did not affect tumor growth. The exposure to isoflurane and sevoflurane was associated with an increase in breast cancer size compared with non-exposure. These data suggested that isoflurane enhanced tumor growth by interacting with LFA-1. Isoflurane exposure did not affect tumor growth in LFA-1-deficient mice. In summary, the present data showed that LFA-1 deficiency facilitated breast cancer growth, and isoflurane, an LFA-1 inhibitor, also increased breast cancer growth.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Optimal intensive care of patients undergoing valve surgery is a complex balancing act between sedation for monitoring and timely postoperative awakening. It remains unclear, if these requirements can be fulfilled by volatile sedations in intensive care medicine in an efficient manner. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the time to extubation and secondary the workload required. METHODS We conducted a prospective randomized single-center trial at a tertiary university hospital to evaluate the postoperative management of open valve surgery patients. The study was randomized with regard to the use of volatile sedation compared to propofol sedation. Sedation was discontinued 60 min after admission for critical postoperative monitoring. RESULTS We observed a significantly earlier extubation (91 ± 39 min vs. 167 ± 77 min; p < 0.001), eye-opening (86 ± 28 min vs. 151 ± 71 min; p < 0.001) and command compliance (93 ± 38 min vs. 164 ± 75 min; p < 0.001) using volatile sedation, which in turn was associated with a significantly increased workload of a median of 9:56 min (± 4:16 min) set-up time. We did not observe any differences in complications. Cardiopulmonary bypass time did not differ between the groups 101 (IQR 81; 113) versus 112 (IQR 79; 136) minutes p = 0.36. CONCLUSIONS Using volatile sedation is associated with few minutes additional workload in assembling and enables a significantly accelerated evaluation of vulnerable patient groups. Volatile sedation has considerable advantages and emerges as a safe sedation technique in our vulnerable study population. TRIAL REGISTRATION Clinical trials registration (NCT04958668) was completed on 1 July 2021.

Abstract
As the global population is aging and surgical needs rise, the occurrence of perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) is becoming a significant concern. PND refers to cognitive changes that occur before or after surgery, including neurocognitive disorders, postoperative delirium, and delayed neurocognitive recovery. To address this issue, a brain health assessment initiative within a multidisciplinary team is an emerging concept. Assessing cognitive function, comorbidities, severity of neurocognitive disorders, medications, nutritional status, sleep quality, and other factors can help mitigate the risk of PND and improve patient outcomes.

Ex Vivo Optimization of Donor Lungs with Inhaled Sevoflurane during Normothermic Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion (VITALISE): A Pilot and Feasibility Study in Sheep. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2413.

Abstract
Volatile anesthetics have been shown in different studies to reduce ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI). Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) facilitates graft evaluation, extends preservation time and potentially enables injury repair and improvement of lung quality. We hypothesized that ventilating lungs with sevoflurane during EVLP would reduce lung injury and improve lung function. We performed a pilot study to test this hypothesis in a slaughterhouse sheep DCD model. Lungs were harvested, flushed and stored on ice for 3 h, after which EVLP was performed for 4 h. Lungs were ventilated with either an FiO2 of 0.4 (EVLP, n = 5) or FiO2 of 0.4 plus sevoflurane at a 2% end-tidal concentration (Cet) (S-EVLP, n = 5). Perfusate, tissue samples and functional measurements were collected and analyzed. A steady state of the target Cet sevoflurane was reached with measurable concentrations in perfusate. Lungs in the S-EVLP group showed significantly better dynamic lung compliance than those in the EVLP group (p = 0.003). Oxygenation capacity was not different in treated lungs for delta partial oxygen pressure (PO2; +3.8 (-4.9/11.1) vs. -11.7 (-12.0/-3.2) kPa, p = 0.151), but there was a trend of a better PO2/FiO2 ratio (p = 0.054). Perfusate ASAT levels in S-EVLP were significantly reduced compared to the control group (198.1 ± 93.66 vs. 223.9 ± 105.7 IU/L, p = 0.02). We conclude that ventilating lungs with sevoflurane during EVLP is feasible and could be useful to improve graft function.

Abstract
The incidence of breast cancer has exhibited an annually increasing trend, and the disease has become the most common malignant tumour worldwide. Currently, the primary treatment for breast cancer is surgical resection. However, metastatic recurrence is the main cause of cancer-related death in this patient population. Various factors are associated with breast cancer prognosis, and anaesthesia-induced changes in the tumour microenvironment have attracted increasing attention. To date, however, it remains unclear whether anaesthetic drugs have a positive or negative impact on cancer outcomes after surgery. The present article reviews the effects of different anaesthetics on the postoperative prognosis of breast cancer surgery to guide the choice of anaesthetic technique(s) and agents for such patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The alteration of the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) or the utilization of distinct anesthesia strategies has been linked to the prognosis of various cancer types, but the existing evidence is limited and inconclusive, particularly for colorectal cancer (CRC). Our objective was to evaluate the association between PNI change and progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients treated with CRC surgery after propofol-based or sevoflurane-based anesthesia. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of 414 patients with CRC who underwent surgical resection. Among them, 165 patients received propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA-P), while 249 patients received sevoflurane-based inhalation anesthesia (IA-S). The PNI change (ΔPNI) was calculated by subtracting the pre-surgery PNI from the post-surgery PNI, and patients were categorized into high (≥ -2.25) and low (< -2.25) ΔPNI groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses were employed to evaluate the effects of the two anesthesia methods, ΔPNI, and their potential interaction on PFS and OS. RESULTS The median duration of follow-up was 35.9 months (interquartile range: 18-60 months). The five-year OS rates were 63.0% in the TIVA-P group and 59.8% in the IA-S group (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.96; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.70-1.35; p = 0.864), while the five-year PFS rates were 55.8% and 51.0% (HR: 0.92; 95% CI: 0.68-1.26; p = 0.614), respectively. In comparison to patients in the low ΔPNI group, those in the high ΔPNI group exhibited a favorable association with both OS (HR: 0.57; 95% CI: 0.40-0.76; p < 0.001) and PFS (HR: 0.58; 95% CI: 0.43-0.79; p < 0.001). Stratified analysis based on ΔPNI revealed significant protective effects in the propofol-treated participants within the high ΔPNI group, whereas such effects were not observed in the low ΔPNI group, for both OS (p for interaction = 0.004) and PFS (p for interaction = 0.024). CONCLUSIONS Our data revealed that among patients who underwent CRC surgery, those treated with TIVA-P exhibited superior survival outcomes compared to those who received IA-S, particularly among individuals with a high degree of PNI change.

Abstract
Background Sevoflurane and propofol are two popular anesthetics used during glioblastoma (GBM) surgery. This investigation compared the molecular subtypes and immune checkpoints of cancer cells following GBM surgery under sevoflurane and propofol anesthesia. Method The expression profile data and clinical information of glioma samples of different grades were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Weighted gene coexpression network analysis was used to identify hub modules and key genes related to glioma grades (G2 and G3). The GEO database (GSE179004) was used to retrieve glioma surgical specimens with different anesthetic gene expression profiles. The differential expression of immune checkpoint genes under various anesthetic settings was examined using the R-ggplot2. Results Compared to sevoflurane, propofol significantly downregulated SERPINI1 and CAMK2A expression. These are also important factors in glioma grading. Simultaneously, SERPINI1 and CAMK2A were also significantly related to the prognosis of GBM and lower-grade glioma patients and acted as potential tumor suppressors. In addition, propofol increases the expression of the immune checkpoint molecule, PD-L1. Conclusions Our study revealed that sevoflurane can more effectively prevent the development of glioma after surgery than propofol, and SERPINI1 can be used as a new independent prognostic factor for glioma.

Abstract
In this Pro-Con commentary article, we discuss whether all general anesthesia should be done using target-controlled propofol anesthesia guided by monitoring of depth of anesthesia. This is an ongoing debate since more than 25 years, representing a scientific, cultural as well as geographical divide in the anesthesia community. The Pro side argues that total intravenous anesthesia causes less postoperative nausea and higher patient satisfaction than anesthesia using volatile anesthetics. Target-controlled infusion (TCI) of anesthetic agents allows for better titration of intravenous anesthesia using pharmacokinetic models. Processed EEG monitors, such as bispectral index monitoring, allows for better assessing the effect of TCI anesthesia than solely assessment of clinical parameters, such as ECG or blood pressure. The combination of TCI propofol and objective depth of anesthesia monitoring allows creating a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic profile for each patient. Finally, anesthesia using volatile anesthetics poses health risks for healthcare professionals and contributes to greenhouse effect. The Con side argues that for procedures accompanied with ischemia and reperfusion injury of an organ or tissue and for patients suffering from a severe inflammation' the use of volatile anesthetics might well have its advantages above propofol. In times of sudden shortage of drugs, volatile anesthetics can overcome the restriction in the operating theater or even on the intensive care unit, which is another advantage. Volatile anesthetics can be used for induction of anesthesia when IV access is impossible, end-tidal measurements of volatile anesthetic concentration allows confirmation that patients receive anesthetics. Taking environmental considerations into account, both propofol and volatile anesthetics bear certain harm to the environment, be it as waste product or as greenhouse gases. The authors therefore suggest to carefully considering advantages and disadvantages for each patient in its according environment. A well-balanced choice based on the available literature is recommended. The authors recommend careful consideration of advantages and disadvantages of each technique when tailoring an anesthetic to meet patient needs. Where appropriate, anesthesia providers are encouraged to account for unique features of anesthetic drug behavior, patient-reported and observed postoperative outcomes, and economic and environmental considerations when choosing any of the 2 described techniques.

Abstract
Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is a common disorder following anesthesia and surgery, especially in the elderly. The complex cellular and molecular processes are involved in PND, but the underlying pathogenesis of which remains inconclusive due to conflicting data. A growing body of evidence has been shown that perioperative systemic inflammation plays important roles in the development of PND. We reviewed the relevant literature retrieved by a search in the PubMed database (on July 20, 2023). The search terms used were "delirium", "post operative cognitive dysfunction", "perioperative neurocognitive disorder", "inflammation" and "systemic", alone and in combination. All articles identified were English-language, full-text papers. The ones cited in the review are those that make a substantial contribution to the knowledge about systemic inflammation and PNDs. The aim of this review is to bring together the latest evidence for the understanding of how perioperative systemic inflammation mediates neuroinflammation and brain injury, how the inflammation is regulated and how we can translate these findings into prevention and/or treatment for PND.

Effect of regional versus general anesthesia on recurrence of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis of eight retrospective cohort studies. BMC Anesthesiol 2023; 23:201. [PMID: 37312019 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-023-02136-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2022] [Accepted: 05/12/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Regional anesthesia appears to reduce cancer recurrence, but the optimal anesthesia modality for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) were still under debate. Therefore, we sought to assess the effect of regional and GA only upon the recurrence and long-term prognosis of NMIBC through this meta-analysis. METHODS We performed an extensive literature search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (up to October 30, 2022) to identify eligible articles on the possible impact of different anesthetic modalities for the recurrence rate of NMIBC. RESULTS Eight studies comprising 3764 participants, including 2117 subjects with RA and 1647 with GA, were finally enrolled. Cancer recurrence rate was significantly lower in subjects with RA than those with GA (RR 0.84, 95%CI 0.72-0.98, P = 0.03). We didn't detect the differences between GA and RA in the time of recurrence (SMD 2.07, 95% CI -0.49-4.63, P = 0.11) and cancer progression (RR 1.14, 95%CI 0.71-1.84, P = 0.59). Results from subgroup analysis demonstrated that spinal anesthesia could significantly decrease the incidence of cancer recurrence in comparison with general anesthesia (RR 0.80, 95%CI 0.72-0.88, P < 0.001) and high-risk NMIBC patients who received RA tended to have less recurrence (HR 0.55, 95%CI 0.39-0.79, P = 0.001) than those receiving GA. CONCLUSIONS RA, especially spinal anesthesia, may be effective in reducing the recurrence rate after transurethral resection of NMIBC. More prospective experimental and clinical studies are needed to validate our findings. TRIAL REGISTRATION INPLASY registration INPLASY2022110097.

Abstract
Although surgical techniques and perioperative care have made significant advances, perioperative mortality in cardiac surgery remains relatively high. Single- or multiple-organ failure remains the leading cause of postoperative mortality. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a common trigger for organ injury or dysfunction in surgical patients. Cardiac surgery involves major surgical dissection, the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and frequent blood transfusions. Ischemia-reperfusion injury and contact activation from CPB are among the major triggers for SIRS. Blood transfusion can also induce proinflammatory responses. Here, we review the immunological mechanisms of organ injury and the role of anesthetic regimens in cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Background Surgical site infections (SSI) contribute to significant morbidity, mortality, length of stay, and financial burden. We sought to evaluate the incidence and risk factors of surgical site infection following pediatric spinal fusion surgery in patients for whom standard perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis and preventive strategies have been implemented. Methods We conducted a retrospective study of children aged <18 years who underwent spinal fusion surgery from January 2017 to November 2021 at a quaternary academic pediatric medical center. Univariable analysis was used to evaluate associations between potential risk factors and SSI. Results Of 1111 patients, 752 (67.6%) were female; median age was 14.2 years. SSI occurred in 14 patients (1.3%). Infections were superficial incisional (n=2; 14.3%), deep incisional (n=9; 64.3%), and organ/space (n=3; 21.4%). Median time to SSI was 14 days (range, 8 to 45 days). Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were the most frequently-isolated bacteria. Potential risk factors for SSIs included low body weight (Odds ratio (OR) 0.96, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.93-0.99, p=0.026), ASA classification of ≥3 (OR 24.53, 95%CI 3.20-188.22, p=0.002), neuromuscular scoliosis (OR 3.83, 95%CI 3.82-78.32, p<0.001), prolonged operative time (OR 1.56, 95%CI 1.28-1.92, p<0.001), prolonged anesthetic time (OR 1.65, 95%CI 1.35-2.00, p<0.001), administration of prophylactic antibiotic ≥60 minutes before skin incision (OR 11.52, 95%CI 2.34-56.60, p=0.003), and use of povidone-iodine alone for skin preparation (OR 5.97, 95%CI 1.27-28.06, p=0.024). Conclusion In the context of a robust bundle for SSI prevention; low body weight, ASA classification of ≥3, neuromuscular scoliosis, prolonged operative and anesthetic times, administration of prophylactic antibiotic ≥60 minutes before skin incision, and use of povidone-iodine alone for skin preparation increased the risk of SSI. Administration of prophylactic antibiotic within 60 minutes of skin incision, strict adherence to high-risk preventive protocol, and use of CHG-alcohol could potentially reduce the rate of SSI.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common inflammatory neurodegenerative disorder after dementia. Preclinical and epidemiological data strongly suggest that chronic neuroinflammation slowly induces neuronal dysfunction. Activated microglia secrete several neurotoxic substances, such as chemokines and proinflammatory cytokines, which may promote blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeabilization. CD4+ T cells comprise proinflammatory cells such as T helper (Th) 1 and Th17 cells, as well as anti-inflammatory cells such as Th2 and T regulatory cells (Tregs). Th1 and Th17 cells can be detrimental to dopamine neurons, whereas Th2 and Tregs are neuroprotective. The results of studies on the serum levels of cytokines such as IFN-γ and TNF-α secreted by Th1 T cells, IL-8 and IL-10 secreted by Th2 T cells, and IL-17 secreted by Th17 cells in PD patients are not uniform. In addition, the relationships between serum cytokine levels and motor and non-motor symptoms of PD are controversial. Surgical stress and anesthesia induce inflammatory responses by disturbing the balance between pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, which may exacerbate the neuroinflammatory response in PD patients. Here we review studies on blood inflammatory biomarkers in PD patients and discuss the roles of surgery and anesthesia in PD progression.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION During liver surgery and transplantation, periods of partial or total vascular occlusion are inevitable and result in ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Nanomedicine uses the latest technology, which has emerged with interdisciplinary effects, such as biomedical sciences, physics, and engineering, to protect and improve human health. Interdisciplinary research has brought along the introduction of antioxidant nanoparticles as potential therapeutics. The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of cerium oxide (CeO2) administration and desflurane anesthesia on liver tissue in liver IR injury. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty rats were randomly divided into five groups: control (C), ischemia-reperfusion (IR), IR-desflurane (IRD), cerium oxide-ischemia reperfusion (CeO2-IR), and cerium oxide-ischemia reperfusion-desflurane (CeO2-IRD). In the IR, IRD, and CeO2-IRD groups, hepatic ischemia was induced after the porta hepatis was clamped for 120 min, followed by 120 min of reperfusion. Intraperitoneal 0.5 mg/kg CeO2 was administered to the CeO2 groups 30 min before ischemia. Desflurane (6%) was administered to the IRD and CeO2-IRD groups during IR. All groups were sacrificed under anesthesia. Liver tissue samples were examined under a light microscope by staining with hematoxylin-eosin (H&E). Malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, catalase (CAT), glutathione-s-transferase (GST), and arylesterase (ARE) enzyme activities were measured in the tissue samples. RESULTS The IR group had considerably more hydropic degeneration, sinusoidal dilatation, and parenchymal mononuclear cell infiltration than the IRD, CeO2-IR, and CeO2-IRD groups. Catalase and GST enzyme activity were significantly higher in the CeO2-IR group than in the IR group. The MDA levels were found to be significantly lower in the IRD, CeO2-IR, and CeO2-IRD groups than in the IR group. CONCLUSION Intraperitoneal CeO2 with desflurane reduced oxidative stress and corrected liver damage.

Front Aging Neurosci 2023; 15:1067268. [PMID: 36819718 PMCID: PMC9929347 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2023.1067268] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Postoperative Delirium (POD) is the most frequent neurocognitive complication after general anesthesia in older patients. The development of POD is associated with prolonged periods of burst suppression activity in the intraoperative electroencephalogram (EEG). The risk to present burst suppression activity depends not only on the age of the patient but is also more frequent during propofol anesthesia as compared to inhalative anesthesia. The aim of our study is to determine, if the risk to develop POD differs depending on the anesthetic agent given and if this correlates with a longer duration of intraoperative burst suppression. Methods In this secondary analysis of the SuDoCo trail [ISRCTN 36437985] 1277 patients, older than 60 years undergoing general anesthesia were included. We preprocessed and analyzed the raw EEG files from each patient and evaluated the intraoperative burst suppression duration. In a logistic regression analysis, we assessed the impact of burst suppression duration and anesthetic agent used for maintenance on the risk to develop POD. Results 18.7% of patients developed POD. Burst suppression duration was prolonged in POD patients (POD 27.5 min ± 21.3 min vs. NoPOD 21.4 ± 16.2 min, p < 0.001), for each minute of prolonged intraoperative burst suppression activity the risk to develop POD increased by 1.1% (OR 1.011, CI 95% 1.000-1.022, p = 0.046). Burst suppression duration was prolonged under propofol anesthesia as compared to sevoflurane and desflurane anesthesia (propofol 32.5 ± 20.3 min, sevoflurane 17.1 ± 12.6 min and desflurane 20.1 ± 16.0 min, p < 0.001). However, patients receiving desflurane anesthesia had a 1.8fold higher risk to develop POD, as compared to propofol anesthesia (OR 1.766, CI 95% 1.049-2.974, p = 0.032). Conclusion We found a significantly increased risk to develop POD after desflurane anesthesia in older patients, even though burst suppression duration was shorter under desflurane anesthesia as compared to propofol anesthesia. Our finding might help to explain some discrepancies in studies analyzing the impact of burst suppression duration and EEG-guided anesthesia on the risk to develop POD.

Abstract
Cancer remains a major public health issue and a leading cause of death worldwide. Despite advancements in chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and immunotherapy, surgery is the mainstay of cancer treatment for solid tumors. However, tumor cells are known to disseminate into the vascular and lymphatic systems during surgical manipulation. Additionally, surgery-induced stress responses can produce an immunosuppressive environment that is favorable for cancer relapse. Up to 90% of cancer-related deaths are the result of metastatic disease after surgical resection. Emerging evidence shows that the interactions between tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment (TME) not only play decisive roles in tumor initiation, progression, and metastasis but also have profound effects on therapeutic efficacy. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), a pleiotropic cytokine contributing to both physiological and pathological processes, is one of the main mediators of inflammation-associated carcinogenesis in the TME. Because TNF-α signaling may modulate the course of cancer, it can be therapeutically targeted to ameliorate clinical outcomes. As the incidence of cancer continues to grow, approximately 80% of cancer patients require anesthesia during cancer care for diagnostic, therapeutic, or palliative procedures, and over 60% of cancer patients receive anesthesia for primary surgical resection. Numerous studies have demonstrated that perioperative management, including surgical manipulation, anesthetics/analgesics, and other supportive care, may alter the TME and cancer progression by affecting inflammatory or immune responses during cancer surgery, but the literature about the impact of anesthesia on the TNF-α production and cancer progression is limited. Therefore, this review summarizes the current knowledge of the implications of anesthesia on cancers from the insights of TNF-α release and provides future anesthetic strategies for improving oncological survival.

Abstract
Objective To explore the influences of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) and inhaled-intravenous anesthesia on the prognosis of patients with lung, breast, or esophageal cancer. Methods In this retrospective cohort study, patients with lung, breast, or esophageal cancer who underwent surgical treatments at Beijing Shijitan Hospital between January 2010 and December 2019 were included. The patients were categorized into the TIVA group and inhaled-intravenous anesthesia group, according to the anesthesia methods used for the patients for surgery of the primary cancer. The primary outcome of this study included overall survival (OS) and recurrence/metastasis. Results Totally, 336 patients were included in this study, 119 in the TIVA group and 217 in the inhaled-intravenous anesthesia group. The OS of patients in the TIVA group was higher than in the inhaled-intravenous anesthesia group (P = 0.042). There were no significant differences in the recurrence/metastasis-free survival between the two groups (P = 0.296). Inhaled-intravenous anesthesia (HR = 1.88, 95%CI: 1.15-3.07, P = 0.012), stage III cancer (HR = 5.88, 95%CI: 2.57-13.43, P < 0.001), and stage IV cancer (HR = 22.60, 95%CI: 8.97-56.95, P < 0.001) were independently associated with recurrence/ metastasis. Comorbidities (HR = 1.75, 95%CI: 1.05-2.92, P = 0.033), the use of ephedrine, noradrenaline or phenylephrine during surgery (HR = 2.12, 95%CI: 1.11-4.06, P = 0.024), stage II cancer (HR = 3.24, 95%CI: 1.08-9.68, P = 0.035), stage III cancer (HR = 7.60, 95%CI: 2.64-21.86, P < 0.001), and stage IV cancer (HR = 26.61, 95%CI: 8.57-82.64, P < 0.001) were independently associated with OS. Conclusion In patients with breast, lung, or esophageal cancer, TIVA is preferable than inhaled-intravenous anesthesia group for longer OS,, but TIVA was not associated with the recurrence/metastasis-free survival of patients.

Abstract
Older adult surgical patients are susceptible to developing delirium. Early intervention can be initiated if a potential biomarker associated with delirium can be identified during the acute phase of surgery. Therefore, we investigated the changes in the levels of serum inflammatory mediators responsible for delirium. Serum biomarkers were measured preoperatively to postoperative day 3 in 96 patients who underwent esophageal cancer surgery and compared between patients who did and did not develop delirium. Serum concentrations of the brain-derived phosphorylated neurofilament heavy subunit remained at higher levels throughout the entire perioperative period in patients with delirium (n = 15) than in those without delirium (n = 81). The interaction between delirium and non-delirium was significant for plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (including age as a covariate, F = 13.360, p < 0.0001, η2 p = 0.134, observed power 1.000) during the perioperative periods. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 level discriminated between patients with and without clinically diagnosed delirium with significantly high accuracy (area under curve, 0.864; sensitivity, 1.00: negative predictive value, 1.000; p = 0.002). Rapid increases in the levels of serum plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 may enable clinicians to identify patients at risk of developing postoperative delirium and initiate early prevention and intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anesthetics are emerging regulators of cancer progression. Here we aim to explore the immunomodulatory roles of two common anesthetics, propofol and sevoflurane in breast cancer progression. METHODS On murine 4T1 breast cancer models, we isolated immune cells from peripheral blood after treatment with propofol and sevoflurane during tumor resection. The CD3, CD4 and CD8 expression of these immune cells were compared using flow cytometry to determine which immune cells were prominently affected by propofol and sevoflurane. Serum cytokine levels were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Metastases in lung and liver tissues were counted. In MDA-MB-231 tumor models, the cell count of immune cells was determined. The cytotoxicity of T cells and natural killing cells in co-culture after propofol and sevoflurane treatment were determined using the LDH assay. RESULTS In the 4T1 breast cancer model, T-lymphocytes showed significant cell count reduction. TNF-α was significantly upregulated at 3 h and 24 h after treatment, while IL-2 and IFN-γ showed transient upregulation at 3 h after treatment. Propofol and sevoflurane increased the number of metastases in the lung and liver after primary tumor resection. In the MDA-MB-231 tumor model, CD3 and CD4 cells were also prominently reduced by propofol and sevoflurane treatment. In vitro, the proliferation and cell-killing activity of T cells and NK cells were also attenuated. CONCLUSIONS Propofol and sevoflurane had significant effects in modulating cancer progression through their immunosuppressive role. The proliferation and killing activity of anti-tumor immune cells can be suppressed by propofol and sevoflurane.

Abstract
Most patients suffering from neoplastic diseases will at some point during their illness be approached surgically. Surgery itself may be unfortunately responsible for tumor proliferation and metastatic spread. With the perioperative period increasingly becoming a focus of research in anesthesia, anesthesiologists have looked at the chance to influence cancer progression based on their choice of anesthesia regimen and strategy. Many anesthetic agents have been investigated for their potential impact on the course of cancer disease. There is an abundance of retrospective studies and very few prospective ones that tackled this issue. The aim of this article is to review the current state of the evidence on general anesthesia involving volatile and intravenous agents as substrates, focusing on halogenated inhalational agents and propofol, to guide clinical decision making in assessments of the best practice for perioperative management of cancer surgery.

Abstract
According to the result released by the World Health Organization (WHO), non-communicable diseases have occupied four of the top 10 current causes for death in the world. Cancer is one of the significant factors that trigger complications and deaths; more than 80% cancer patients require surgical or palliative treatment. In this case, anesthetic treatment is indispensable. Since cancer is a heterogeneous disease, various types of interventions can activate oncogenes or mutate tumor suppressor genes. More and more researchers believe that anesthetics have a certain effect on the long-term recurrence and metastasis of tumors, but it is still controversial whether they promote or inhibit the progression of cancer. On this basis, a series of retrospective or prospective randomized clinical trials have been conducted, but it seems to be difficult to reach a conclusion within 5 years or longer. This article focuses on the effects of anesthetic drugs on immune function and cancer and reviews their latest targets on the tumor cells, in order to provide a theoretical basis for optimizing the selection of anesthetic drugs, exploring therapeutic targets, and improving the prognosis of cancer patients.

Desflurane improves lung collapse more than propofol during one-lung ventilation and reduces operation time in lobectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery: a randomized controlled trial. BMC Anesthesiol 2022; 22:125. [PMID: 35488195 PMCID: PMC9052625 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-022-01669-7] [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: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Background This study evaluated whether desflurane improved lung collapse during one-lung ventilation (OLV) more than propofol, and whether it could reduce the operation time of video-assisted thoracic surgery. Methods Sixty patients undergoing lobectomy by video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) were randomly assigned to general anesthesia with desflurane or propofol. Lungs were inspected by thoracoscope at 10, 30, and 60 min after initiation of OLV. After surgery, the Lung Collapse Score, a composite of lung color and volume assessments, was assigned by two clinicians blinded to the anesthetic regimen. The primary outcome was operation time. The secondary outcome included the complication rate. Results Of the 60 participants, 50 completed the study, 26 in Desflurane group and 24 in Propofol group. The Lung Collapse Scores at 30 and 60 min after OLV initiation were significantly better in Desflurane group than in Propofol group, and operation time was significantly shorter in Desflurane group (214 (57) min vs. 262 (72) min [mean (SD)], difference in means, -48; 95% CI, -85 to -11; P = 0.01). The incidence of multiple complications was 1/26 (3%) and 6/24 (25%) in Desflurane and Propofol group, respectively (relative risk, 0.1; 95% CI, 0.02 to 1.18; P = 0.04). Conclusions Desflurane improved lung collapse during OLV and significantly shortened VATS lobectomy operation time compared to propofol in our studied patients. Desflurane resulted in fewer postoperative complications. Thus, desflurane may be an appropriate anesthetic during lobectomy by VATS requiring OLV. Trial registration The study was registered with the University Hospital Medical Information Network (UMIN000009412). The date of disclosure of this study information is 27/11/2012. On this date, we registered the study into UMIN; patients were included from 2013 to 2014. However, on 11/27/2015, the UMIN system administrator suggested a detailed description. Thereafter, we added it to the Randomization Unit. Despite being prospective, it was retrospectively registered on UMIN for the above reasons.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative complications are common after colorectal surgery, and possibly related to the type of anaesthesia. We aimed to determine associations between the type of anaesthesia and complications after colorectal cancer surgery using Danish registries. METHODS Patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery (2004-18) were identified in the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group Database. The cohort was enriched with the Danish Anaesthesia Database and Danish National Prescription Registry data linked by Danish Central Person Registration number. Patients were classified according to type of general anaesthesia: inhalation or TIVA. Confounders were adjusted by propensity score matching. The primary outcome was complications within 30 days postoperatively. Secondarily, we assessed specific medical and surgical complications. RESULTS We identified 22 179 individuals undergoing colorectal cancer surgery with accompanying anaesthesia data. Propensity score matching yielded 8722 individuals per group. After propensity score matching, postoperative complications were seen in 1933 (22.2%) patients undergoing inhalation anaesthesia and in 2199 (25.2%) undergoing TIVA (odds ratio [OR]=0.84; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.79-0.91). Although no difference was observed for medical complications, 1369 (15.7%) undergoing inhalation anaesthesia had surgical complications compared with 1708 (19.6%) undergoing TIVA (OR=0.76; 95% CI, 0.71-0.83). Rates of wound dehiscence, anastomotic leak, ileus, wound abscess, intra-abdominal abscess, and sepsis were statistically significantly lower in the inhalation anaesthesia group. CONCLUSION In this propensity score-matched registry study, use of inhalation anaesthesia was associated with fewer postoperative complications after colorectal cancer surgery than use of TIVA. Inhalation anaesthesia was associated with fewer complications related to wound healing and surgical infections.

Abstract
Cancer is a leading cause of death, and surgery is an important treatment modality. Laboratory research and retrospective studies have raised the suspicion that the choice of anesthetics for cancer surgery might affect the course of cancerous disease. The aim of this review is to provide a critical overview of the current state of knowledge. Inhalational anesthesia with volatiles or total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol are the two most commonly used anesthetic techniques. Most data comparing volatile anesthetics with TIVA is from either in vitro or retrospective studies. Although conflicting, data shows a trend towards favoring propofol. Opioids are commonly used in anesthesia. Data on potential effects of opioids on growth and recurrence of cancer are scarce and conflicting. Preclinical studies have shown that opioids stimulate cancer growth through the µ-opioid receptor. Opioids also act as immunosuppressants and, therefore, have the potential to facilitate metastatic spread. However, the finding of an adverse effect of opioids on tumor growth and cancer recurrence by some retrospective studies has not been confirmed by prospective studies. Regional anesthesia has not been found to have a beneficial effect on the outcome of surgically treated cancer patients, but prospective studies are scarce. Local anesthetics might have a beneficial effect, as observed in animal and in vitro studies. However, prospective clinical studies strongly question such an effect. Blood products, which may be needed during extensive cancer surgery suppress the immune system, and data strongly suggest a negative impact on cancer recurrence. The potential effects of other commonly used anesthetic agents on the outcome of cancer patients have not been sufficiently studied for drawing valid conclusions. In conclusion, laboratory data and most retrospective studies suggest a potential advantage of TIVA over inhalational anesthesia on the outcome of surgical cancer patients, but prospective, randomized studies are missing. Given the state of weak scientific evidence, TIVA may be used as the preferred type of anesthesia unless there is an individual contraindication against it. Studies on the effects of other drugs frequently used in anesthesia are limited in number and quality, and have found conflicting results.

Abstract
Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is a common surgery outcome affecting up to a third of the elderly patients, and it is associated with high morbidity and increased risk for Alzheimer's disease development. PND is characterized by cognitive impairment that can manifest acutely in the form of postoperative delirium (POD) or after hospital discharge as postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Although POD and POCD are clinically distinct, their development seems to be mediated by a systemic inflammatory reaction triggered by surgical trauma that leads to dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier and facilitates the occurrence of neuroinflammation. Recent studies have suggested that the gut microbiota composition may play a pivotal role in the PND development by modulating the risk of neuroinflammation establishment. In fact, modulation of gut microbiome composition with pre- and probiotics seems to be effective for the prevention and treatment of PND in animals. Interestingly, general anesthetics seem to have major responsibility on the gut microbiota composition changes following surgery and, consequently, can be an important element in the process of PND initiation. This concept represents an important milestone for the understanding of PND pathogenesis and may unveil new opportunities for the development of preventive or mitigatory strategies against the development of these conditions. The aim of this review is to discuss how anesthetics used in general anesthesia can interact and alter the gut microbiome composition and contribute to PND development by favoring the emergence of neuroinflammation.

Abstract
The stress response triggered by the surgical aggression and the transient immunosuppression produced by anesthetic agents stimulate the inadvertent dispersion of neoplastic cells and, paradoxically, tumor progression during the perioperative period. Anesthetic agents and techniques, in relation to metastatic development, are investigated for their impact on long-term survival. Scientific evidence indicates that inhaled anesthetics and opioids benefit immunosuppression, cell proliferation, and angiogenesis, providing the ideal microenvironment for tumor progression. The likely benefit of reducing their use, or even replacing them as much as possible with anesthetic techniques that protect patients from the metastatic process, is still being investigated. The possibility of using "immunoprotective" or "antitumor" anesthetic techniques would represent a turning point in clinical practice. Through understanding of pharmacological mechanisms of anesthetics and their effects on tumor cells, new perioperative approaches emerge with the aim of halting and controlling metastatic development. Epidural anesthesia and propofol have been shown to maintain immune activity and reduce catecholaminergic and inflammatory responses, considering the protective techniques against tumor spread. The current data generate hypotheses about the influence of anesthesia on metastatic development, although prospective trials that determinate causality are necessary to make changes in clinical practice.

Abstract
Background Bibliometric analysis is used to gain a systematic understanding of developments in the field of the influence of anesthesia on tumor prognosis and changes in research hot spots over the past 20 years. Methods Relevant publications from the Web of Science Core Collection (WoSCC) were downloaded on May 5, 2021. Acquired data were then analyzed using the Online Analysis Platform of Literature Metrology (http://biblimetric.com) and the CiteSpace software was used to analyze and predict trends and hot spots in this field. Results 1,521 publications on the influence of anesthesia on tumor prognosis were identified and 1494 qualifying records were included in the final analysis. The leading country in this field was the United States of America (USA). The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, TX, USA) and Pennsylvania State University (State College, PA, USA) featured the highest number of publications among all institutions. Co-citation cluster labels revealed characteristics of ten main clusters: total intravenous anesthesia, opioid growth factor receptor, gastric cancer cell, opioid receptor, murine model, natural killer cell activity, health-related quality, glioma cell, opioid switching and mu-type opioid receptor. Keyword burst detection indicated that randomized controlled trials (RCTs), volatile anesthetics, and ropivacaine were the newly emerging research hot spots. Conclusions This study compiled 1494 publications covering anesthesia and tumor prognosis research and showed that the direction of these studies is likely in transition from opioids and their receptors to other anesthetics, and from retrospective studies to prospective randomized controlled trials. It provides guidance for further research and clinical applications on choosing anesthetic methods and drugs.

Abstract
Retrospective studies indicate that cancer survival may be affected by the anaesthetic technique. Propofol seems to be a better choice than volatile anaesthetics, such as sevoflurane. The first two retrospective studies suggested better long-term survival with propofol, but not for breast cancer. Subsequent retrospective studies from Asia indicated the same. When data from seven Swedish hospitals were analysed, including 6305 breast cancer patients, different analyses gave different results, from a non-significant difference in survival to a remarkably large difference in favour of propofol, an illustration of the innate weakness in the retrospective design. The largest randomised clinical trial, registered on clinicaltrial.gov, with survival as an outcome is the Cancer and Anesthesia study. Patients are here randomised to propofol or sevoflurane. The inclusion of patients with breast cancer was completed in autumn 2017. Delayed by the pandemic, one-year survival data for the cohort were presented in November 2020. Due to the extremely good short-term survival for breast cancer, one-year survival is of less interest for this disease. As the inclusions took almost five years, there was also a trend to observe. Unsurprisingly, no difference was found in one-year survival between the two groups, and the trend indicated no difference either.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES It is our experience that a small portion of patients with neuropathic abdominal wall pain syndromes such as the anterior cutaneous nerve entrapment syndrome (ACNES) have a long term beneficial response following just one single tender point injection (TPI) with a local anesthetic agent. This report focuses on the phenomenon of ongoing pain relief following a single local anesthetic injection in neuropathic abdominal wall and groin pain syndromes. METHODS This report is an overview based on earlier studies from a center of expertise for neuropathic abdominal wall and groin pain syndromes. All studies on neuropathic abdominal wall and groin pain syndromes reporting on efficacy of a diagnostic TPI using a local anesthetic agent were included. RESULTS A total of 10 studies including 834 patients fulfilled study criteria. Each of these 10 studies found that approximately 10% (range, 4-25%) of the cases experienced persistent pain relief after a single TPI with lidocaine 1%. CONCLUSIONS Persistent pain relief after a single TPI using a local anesthetic agent may be observed in approximately one of 10 patients suffering from neuropathic abdominal wall or groin pain syndromes. When a patient is suspected of having a neuropathic abdominal wall or groin pain syndrome, a single TPI using a local anesthetic agent should be administered as long term pain relief may occasionally occur.

[PMID: 33882858 PMCID: PMC8059169 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-021-01342-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2021] [Accepted: 04/12/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Infection is a major complication following cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) diversion procedures for hydrocephalus. However, pediatric risk factors for surgical site infection (SSI) are currently not well defined. Because a SSI prevention bundle is increasingly introduced, the purpose of this study was to evaluate risk factors associated with SSIs following CSF diversion surgeries following a SSI bundle at a single quaternary care pediatric hospital. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing CSF diversion procedures from 2017 to 2019. SSIs were identified prospectively through continuous surveillance. We performed unadjusted logistic regression analyses and univariate analyses to determine an association between SSIs and patient demographics, comorbidities and perioperative factors to identify independent risk factors for SSI. Results We identified a total of 558 CSF diversion procedures with an overall SSI rate of 3.4%. The SSI rates for shunt, external ventricular drain (EVD) placement, and endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) were 4.3, 6.9 and 0%, respectively. Among 323 shunt operations, receipt of clindamycin as perioperative prophylaxis and presence of cardiac disease were significantly associated with SSI (O.R. 4.99, 95% C.I. 1.27–19.70, p = 0.02 for the former, and O.R. 7.19, 95% C.I. 1.35–38.35, p = 0.02 for the latter). No risk factors for SSI were identified among 72 EVD procedures. Conclusion We identified receipt of clindamycin as perioperative prophylaxis and the presence of cardiac disease as risk factors for SSI in shunt procedures. Cefazolin is recommended as a standard antibiotic for perioperative prophylaxis. Knowing that unsubstantiated beta-lactam allergy label is a significant medical problem, efforts should be made to clarify beta-lactam allergy status to maximize the number of patients who can receive cefazolin for prophylaxis before shunt placement. Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanism by which cardiac disease may increase SSI risk after shunt procedures.

Abstract
Textbooks of biochemistry will explain that the otherwise endergonic reactions of ATP synthesis can be driven by the exergonic reactions of respiratory electron transport, and that these two half-reactions are catalyzed by protein complexes embedded in the same, closed membrane. These views are correct. The textbooks also state that, according to the chemiosmotic coupling hypothesis, a (or the) kinetically and thermodynamically competent intermediate linking the two half-reactions is the electrochemical difference of protons that is in equilibrium with that between the two bulk phases that the coupling membrane serves to separate. This gradient consists of a membrane potential term Δψ and a pH gradient term ΔpH, and is known colloquially as the protonmotive force or pmf. Artificial imposition of a pmf can drive phosphorylation, but only if the pmf exceeds some 150-170mV; to achieve in vivo rates the imposed pmf must reach 200mV. The key question then is 'does the pmf generated by electron transport exceed 200mV, or even 170mV?' The possibly surprising answer, from a great many kinds of experiment and sources of evidence, including direct measurements with microelectrodes, indicates it that it does not. Observable pH changes driven by electron transport are real, and they control various processes; however, compensating ion movements restrict the Δψ component to low values. A protet-based model, that I outline here, can account for all the necessary observations, including all of those inconsistent with chemiosmotic coupling, and provides for a variety of testable hypotheses by which it might be refined.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous studies suggested that sevoflurane exerts anti-proliferative, anti-migratory, and anti-invasive effects on cancer cells. To determine the role of sevoflurane on gastric cancer (GC) progression, we evaluated its effects on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of SGC7901, AGS, and MGC803 GC cells. METHODS GC cells were exposed to different concentrations of sevoflurane (1.7, 3.4, or 5.1% v/v). Cell viability, migration, and invasion were evaluated using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide and Transwell assays. Immunohistochemical staining and immunoblotting were performed to analyze forkhead box protein 3 (FOXP3) protein expression in tissue specimens and cell lines, respectively. RESULTS FOXP3 was downregulated in human GC specimens and cell lines. Functionally, FOXP3 overexpression significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of GC cells and accelerated their apoptosis. Moreover, sevoflurane significantly blocked GC cell migration and invasion compared with the findings in the control group. However, FOXP3 silencing neutralized sevoflurane-induced apoptosis and the inhibition of GC cell migration and invasion. Sevoflurane-induced apoptosis and the suppression of migration and invasion might be associated with FOXP3 overactivation in GC cells. CONCLUSIONS Sevoflurane activated FOXP3 and prevented GC progression via inhibiting cell migration and invasion in vitro.

Abstract
Background microRNAs (miRNAs) are single-stranded and noncoding RNA molecules that control post-transcriptional gene regulation. miRNAs can be tumor suppressors or oncogenes through various mechanism including cancer cell biology, cell-to-cell communication, and anti-cancer immunity. Main Body Anesthetics can affect cell biology through miRNA-mediated regulation of messenger RNA (mRNA). Indeed, sevoflurane was reported to upregulate miR-203 and suppresses breast cancer cell proliferation. Propofol reduces matrix metalloproteinase expression through its impact on miRNAs, leading to anti-cancer microenvironmental changes. Propofol also modifies miRNA expression profile in circulating extracellular vesicles with their subsequent anti-cancer effects via modulating cell-to-cell communication. Conclusion Inhalational and intravenous anesthetics can alter cancer cell biology through various cellular signaling pathways induced by miRNAs’ modification. However, this area of research is insufficient and further study is needed to figure out optimal anesthesia regimens for cancer patients.

Abstract
Surgical site infections are significant health care issues, and efforts to mitigate their occurrence have been ongoing worldwide, mainly focusing to reduce the spillage of microbes to the otherwise sterile tissues. Optimization of host immunity has been also recognized including temperature regulation (normothermia), adequate oxygenation, and glucose management. A number of papers have described the role of anesthetics in host immunity. The role of anesthetics in postoperative outcomes including surgical site infections has been also studied. We will review the current literature and propose the importance of anesthetic selection to potentially mitigate surgical site infections.

Abstract
Background : During orthopedic surgery, the use of a pneumatic tourniquet results in side effects secondary to ischemia-reperfusion phenomena. We tested the hypothesis that total knee arthroplasty with a tourniquet is associated with increase in plasma concentrations of biomarkers of neutrophil activation and endothelial injury. The second aim was to compare these changes during spinal or general inhalational anesthesia.
Methods : 40 adult ASA I-II patients scheduled for total knee arthroplasty with a tourniquet under spinal or sevoflurane anesthesia were included. Venous blood samples were collected before surgery, 1 h, 3 h, and 24 h after tourniquet deflation. To assess neutrophil activation, plasma concentrations of total and active fractions of myeloperoxidase, as well as elastase concentrations and proteolytic activity were measured. Endothelial injury was assessed by measurement of plasma concentrations of syndecan-1, soluble thrombomodulin, soluble E-selectin, and vascular endothelial growth factor. Results were analyzed with a two-way analysis of variance. P< 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results : Plasma concentrations of active but not total myeloperoxidase and elastase significantly increased following tourniquet deflation. The level of syndecan-1, soluble thrombomodulin, soluble E-selectin, but not vascular endothelial growth factor, significantly decreased postoperatively. These changes of biomarkers were similar during spinal and sevoflurane anesthesia.
Conclusions : Total knee arthroplasty with pneumatic tourniquet is associated with systemic release of markers of neutrophil activation which was comparable during spinal or sevoflurane anesthesia. Systemic expression of endothelial injury was not detected in our clinical conditions.

Abstract
Cancer accounts for millions of deaths globally each year, predominantly due to recurrence and metastatic disease. The majority of patients with primary solid organ cancers require surgery, however, some degree of tumour dissemination related to surgery is inevitable. The surgical stress response and associated immunosuppression, pain, inflammation, tissue hypoxia and angiogenesis have all been implicated in promoting tumour survival, proliferation and recurrence. Regional anaesthesia was hypothesised to reduce the surgical stress response and immunosuppression, minimise the need for volatile anaesthesia and reduce pain and opioid requirements, thus mitigating pro-tumour pathways associated with the peri-operative period and improving long-term oncological outcomes. While some retrospective studies suggested an association between regional anaesthesia and reduced cancer recurrence, the first large randomised controlled trial on the effect of anaesthetic technique on cancer outcome found no significant difference between paravertebral regional anaesthesia and volatile anaesthesia with opioid analgesia in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery. Randomised controlled trials on the long-term oncological outcomes of regional anaesthesia in other tumour types are ongoing. The focus on how peri-operative interventions, especially regional anaesthesia, during cancer resection surgery, may enhance short-term recovery and perhaps influence long-term outcome has spawned the global emergence of the subspecialty of onco-anaesthesia. This review aims to discuss the most recent evidence on the use of regional anaesthesia in cancer surgery and the significance of its role in onco-anaesthesia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During colorectal cancer surgery, the immune-modulating effects of inhalation anaesthesia may create a favourable environment for metastasis formation, leading to increased risk of recurrence. Our aim was to assess the association between inhalation vs intravenous anaesthesia and cancer recurrence in patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery. METHODS Patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery in 2004-18 were identified in the Danish Colorectal Cancer Group Database and Danish Anaesthesia Database. After exclusion of patients with residual tumour registered in postoperative pathology reports, local endoscopic resections, and stent insertions, we classified patients according to exposure to inhalation anaesthesia. The primary outcome was recurrence (time to recurrence), whereas secondary outcomes were all-cause mortality (time to death) and disease-free survival (time to either recurrence or death). Events of recurrence and death were identified using The Danish Civil Registration System, Danish National Pathology Registry, and Danish National Patient Registry. The sub-distribution hazards approach was used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) for recurrence, and Cox regression was used for all-cause mortality and disease-free survival. RESULTS We identified 5238 patients exposed to inhalation anaesthesia and 6322 to intravenous anaesthesia. Propensity score matching yielded 4347 individuals in each group with balanced baseline covariates. We found a weak association between recurrence and exposure to inhalation anaesthesia (HR=1.12; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.23). The HR estimates for all-cause mortality and disease-free survival were 1.00 (95% CI, 0.93-1.07) and 1.04 (95% CI, 0.98-1.11) respectively. CONCLUSION Exposure to inhalation anaesthesia was associated with increased risk of recurrence after colorectal cancer surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although surgical site infections (SSIs) remain a significant health care issue, a limited number of studies have analyzed risk factors for SSIs in children, particularly the role of intraoperative anesthetic management. Pediatric patients are less likely to have major adult risk factors for SSIs such as smoking and diabetes. Thus children may be more suitable as a cohort for examining the role of intraoperative anesthetics in SSIs. AIM We examined an association between SSI incidence and anesthetic management in children who underwent elective intestinal surgery in a single institution. METHODS We performed a retrospective study of 621 patients who underwent elective intestinal surgery under general anesthesia between January 2017 and September 2019, with primary outcome as the incidence of SSIs. We compared patients who were dichotomized in accordance with the median of the sevoflurane dose. We used propensity score (PS) pairwise matching of these patients to avoid selection biases. PS matching yielded 204 pairs of patients. RESULTS We found that higher doses of sevoflurane were associated with a higher incidence of SSIs (9.8% versus 3.9%, P = 0.019). We adjusted for intraoperative factors that were not included in the PS adjustment factors, and multivariate regression analysis after PS matching showed compatible results (odds ratio: 2.58, 95% confidence interval: 1.11-6.04, P = 0.028). CONCLUSIONS Higher doses of sevoflurane are associated with increased odds of SSIs after pediatric elective intestinal surgery. A randomized controlled study of volatile anesthetic-based versus intravenous anesthetic-based anesthesia will be needed to further determine the role of anesthetic drugs in SSI risk.

Abstract
Sevoflurane is a new type of inhalation anesthetic used widely in the clinic. It has the characteristics of rapid induction, rapid recovery, and less irritative to the airway. Studies have shown that sevoflurane can affect the invasion and migration of a variety of malignant tumors. However, its effects on human glioma cells and related mechanisms are not clear. Cultured U251 and U87 cells were pretreated with sevoflurane. The effect of sevoflurane on proliferation was evaluated by MTT, and cell migration assay, cell apoptosis, and invasion ability were evaluated by wound-healing assay, cell apoptosis, and Transwell assays. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway gene expression in sevoflurane-treated cell lines was measured by western blotting analysis, respectively. 5% sevoflurane significantly inhibited proliferation ability in both U251 and U87 cells. Sevoflurane inhibited glioma cells invasion and migration, and promoted apoptosis. Sevoflurane inhibited IGF-1 and promoted the expression of apoptosis-related proteins in glioma cells. In addition, sevoflurane inhibited the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in glioma cells. This study clarifies that sevoflurane inhibits proliferation, invasion, and migration, and promotes apoptosis in glioma cells. These effects are regulated by IGF-1, an upstream gene of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. These findings may be significant for the selection of anesthetic agents in glioma surgery to improve the prognosis of patients.

Abstract
Toll like receptors (TLRs) are critical receptors to respond to danger signals, and their functions are relevant in the perioperative period. We previously reported that volatile anesthetics directly bound to TLR2 and TLR4 and attenuated their functions. Given that TLR9 can respond to mitochondrial DNA, a danger signal that is released upon tissue injury, we examined the role of anesthetics on TLR9 function. Our reporter assay showed that volatile anesthetics isoflurane and sevoflurane increased the activation of TLR9, while propofol attenuated it. TLR9 activation occurs via its dimerization. The dimerization is facilitated by unmethylated cytosine-phosphate-guanine (CpG) DNA as well as DNA containing cytosine at the second position from 5'-end (5'-xCx DNA). Our structural analysis using photoactivable anesthetics and rigid docking simulation showed that isoflurane and sevoflurane bound to both TLR9 dimer interface and 5'-xCx DNA binding site. Propofol bound to the TLR9 antagonist binding site. This is the first illustration that anesthetics can affect the binding of nucleic acids to their receptor. This study sets the foundation for the effect of anesthetics on TLR9 and will pave the way for future studies to determine the significance of such interactions in the clinical setting.

Effects of Desflurane and Sevoflurane anesthesia on regulatory T cells in patients undergoing living donor kidney transplantation: a randomized intervention trial. BMC Anesthesiol 2020; 20:215. [PMID: 32854613 PMCID: PMC7450591 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-020-01130-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2020] [Accepted: 08/20/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Volatile anesthetic agents used during surgery have immunomodulatory effects which could affect postoperative outcomes. Recognizing that regulatory T cells (Tregs) plays crucial roles in transplant tolerance and high peripheral blood Tregs associated with stable kidney graft function, knowing which volatile anesthetic agents can induce peripheral blood Tregs increment would have clinical implications. This study aimed to compare effects of desflurane and sevoflurane anesthesia on peripheral blood Tregs induction in patients undergoing living donor kidney transplantation. METHODS A prospective, randomized, double-blind trial in living donor kidney transplant recipients was conducted at a single center, tertiary-care, academic university hospital in Thailand during August 2015 - June 2017. Sixty-six patients were assessed for eligibility and 40 patients who fulfilled the study requirement were equally randomized and allocated to desflurane versus sevoflurane anesthesia during transplant surgery. The primary outcome included absolute changes of peripheral blood CD4+CD25+FoxP3+Tregs which measured by flow cytometry and expressed as the percentage of the total population of CD4+ T lymphocytes at pre-exposure (0-h) and post-exposure (2-h and 24-h) to anesthetic gas. P-value < 0.05 denoted statistical significance. RESULTS Demographic data were comparable between groups. No statistical difference of peripheral blood Tregs between desflurane and sevoflurane groups observed at the baseline pre-exposure (3.6 ± 0.4% vs. 3.1 ± 0.4%; p = 0.371) and 2-h post-exposure (3.0 ± 0.3% vs. 3.5 ± 0.4%; p = 0.319). At 24-h post-exposure, peripheral blood Tregs was significantly higher in desflurane group (5.8 ± 0.5% vs. 4.1 ± 0.3%; p = 0.008). Within group analysis showed patients receiving desflurane, but not sevoflurane, had 2.7% increase in peripheral blood Treg over 24-h period (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION This study provides the clinical trial-based evidence that desflurane induced peripheral blood Tregs increment after 24-h exposure, which could be beneficial in the context of kidney transplantation. Mechanisms of action and clinical advantages of desflurane anesthesia based on Treg immunomodulation should be investigated in the future. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02559297 .

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to provide a succinct summary of the different experimental approaches that have been used in preclinical postoperative cognitive dysfunction research, and an overview of the knowledge that has accrued. This is not intended to be a comprehensive review, but rather is intended to highlight how the many different approaches have contributed to our understanding of postoperative cognitive dysfunction, and to identify knowledge gaps to be filled by further research. The authors have organized this report by the level of experimental and systems complexity, starting with molecular and cellular approaches, then moving to intact invertebrates and vertebrate animal models. In addition, the authors' goal is to improve the quality and consistency of postoperative cognitive dysfunction and perioperative neurocognitive disorder research by promoting optimal study design, enhanced transparency, and "best practices" in experimental design and reporting to increase the likelihood of corroborating results. Thus, the authors conclude with general guidelines for designing, conducting and reporting perioperative neurocognitive disorder rodent research.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation has become a key hallmark of neurological complications including perioperative pathologies such as postoperative delirium and longer-lasting postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Dysregulated inflammation and neuronal injury are emerging from clinical studies as key features of perioperative neurocognitive disorders. These findings are paralleled by a growing body of preclinical investigations aimed at better understanding how surgery and anesthesia affect the central nervous system and possibly contribute to cognitive decline. Herein, we review the role of postoperative neuroinflammation and underlying mechanisms in immune-to-brain signaling after peripheral surgery.

The influence of dexmedetomidine and propofol on circulating cytokine levels in healthy subjects. BMC Anesthesiol 2019; 19:222. [PMID: 31805854 PMCID: PMC6894489 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-019-0895-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2019] [Accepted: 11/27/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Surgery and diseases modify inflammatory responses and the immune system. Anesthetic agents also have effects on the human immune system but the responses they induce may be altered or masked by the surgical procedures or underlying illnesses. The aim of this study was to assess how single-drug dexmedetomidine and propofol anesthesia without any surgical intervention alter acute immunological biomarkers in healthy subjects. Methods Thirty-five healthy, young male subjects were anesthetized using increasing concentrations of dexmedetomidine (n = 18) or propofol (n = 17) until loss of responsiveness (LOR) was detected. The treatment allocation was randomized. Multi-parametric immunoassays for the detection of 48 cytokines, chemokines and growth factors were used. Concentrations were determined at baseline and at the highest drug concentration for each subject. Results The changes in the concentration of eotaxin (decrease after dexmedetomidine) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF, increase after propofol) were statistically significantly different between the groups. Significant changes were detected within both groups; the concentrations of monocyte chemotactic protein 1, chemokine ligand 27 and macrophage migration inhibitory factor were lower in both groups after the drug administration. Dexmedetomidine decreased the concentration of eotaxin, interleukin-18, interleukin-2Rα, stem cell factor, stem cell growth factor and vascular endothelial growth factor, and propofol decreased significantly the levels of hepatocyte growth factor, IFN-γ-induced protein 10 and monokine induced by IFN-γ, and increased the levels of interleukin-17, interleukin-5, interleukin-7 and PDGF. Conclusions Dexmedetomidine seemed to have an immunosuppressive effect on the immune system whereas propofol seemed to induce mixed pro- and anti-inflammatory effects on the immune system. The choice of anesthetic agent could be relevant when treating patients with compromised immunological defense mechanisms. Trial registration Before subject enrollment, the study was registered in the European Clinical Trials database (EudraCT number 2013–001496-21, The Neural Mechanisms of Anesthesia and Human Consciousness) and in ClinicalTrials.gov (Principal Investigator: Harry Scheinin, number NCT01889004, The Neural Mechanisms of Anesthesia and Human Consciousness, Part 2, on the 23rd of June 2013).
