Abstract
INTRODUCTION Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) occur frequently in patients undergoing lung surgery under general anaesthesia and are strongly associated with longer postoperative hospital stays and increased mortality. The existing literature has shown that a higher level of preoperative physical activity (PA) plays a positive role in the low incidence of postoperative complications and the quality of life in patients undergoing lung surgery. However, the association between preoperative PA levels and the incidence of PPCs has rarely been studied, particularly in thoracoscopic lung surgery. This study aims to evaluate PA levels in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lung surgery using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire and to investigate the association between PA levels and the incidence of PPCs. METHODS AND ANALYSIS A total of 204 participants aged 18-80 years undergoing thoracoscopic lung surgery (thoracoscopic wedge resection, thoracoscopic segmentectomy and thoracoscopic lobectomy) will be included in the study. The primary outcome is the incidence of PPCs within the first 5 postoperative days. The secondary outcomes include the number of PPCs, the incidence of PPCs 1 month postoperatively, the arterial blood levels of inflammatory markers, the incidence of postoperative adverse events within the first 5 postoperative days, extubation time, unplanned admission to the intensive care unit, postoperative length of stay and mortality 1 month postoperatively. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study was reviewed and approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University on 31 March 2022 (YXLL-KY-2022(014)) and is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov. We plan to disseminate the data and findings of this study in international and peer-reviewed journals. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER The trial has been prospectively registered at the clinicaltrials.gov registry (NCT05401253).

Physiother Theory Pract 2024; 40:778-788. [PMID: 36637368 DOI: 10.1080/09593985.2022.2163212] [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: 06/14/2022] [Revised: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 01/14/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Preoperative inspiratory muscle training reduces the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications after cardiac surgery, but training protocols vary widely in terms of intensity. Currently, the mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of this practice are not known. The purpose of the present study is to determine whether preoperative high-intensity inspiratory muscle training (HI-IMT) modulates the perioperative systemic inflammatory response in cardiac surgery patients. METHODS Participants awaiting surgical aortic valve replacement were randomized to 3 to 6 weeks preoperative home-based HI-IMT or same duration low-intensity inspiratory muscle training (LI-IMT). The primary outcome was the preoperative value of the soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (sTNFR1). Secondary outcomes assessed perioperative evolution of the cytokines: sTNFR1, Tumor necrosis factor-α, Interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, IL10, IL1β, and their combined z-score; reflecting post-training and postoperative inflammatory response. Perioperative pulmonary function and postoperative clinical outcomes were collected. RESULTS Between February 2018 and March 30, 2019 patients were randomized, to HI-IMT or LI-IMT. There were no differences between the groups in terms of baseline characteristics. The median (IQR) training duration was 34 (28-44) days. After training, the median (IQR) predicted maximal inspiratory pressure was higher in the HI-IMT vs LI-IMT group (119 (96-142%) vs 97 (81-107%); p = .04) Levels of the sTNFR1 cytokine increased during training in the HI-IMT group, pre vs post training (Median (IQR) 1073 (920; 1219) vs 1172 (965; 1368) ng/L; p = .03). The 24-h postoperative global inflammatory score was lower in the HI-IMT than in the LI-IMT group (Median (IQR), -0.37 (-0.62, 0.03) vs -0.10 (-0.17, 0.49), p = .04). Global inflammatory scores were not different at other time points. There were no significant differences between the groups in post-operative pulmonary function and postoperative clinical outcome. CONCLUSION High intensity inspiratory muscle training shows immunomodulatory properties. These properties could explain why preoperative inspiratory muscle training can lead to lung protection after cardiac surgery.

Temporal and Spatial Patterns of Inflammation and Tissue Injury in Patients with Postoperative Respiratory Failure after Lung Resection Surgery: A Nested Case-Control Study. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:10051. [PMID: 37373199 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241210051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Revised: 06/06/2023] [Accepted: 06/10/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Thoracic surgeries involving resection of lung tissue pose a risk of severe postoperative pulmonary complications, including acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and respiratory failure. Lung resections require one-lung ventilation (OLV) and, thus, are at higher risk of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) attributable to barotrauma and volutrauma in the one ventilated lung, as well as hypoxemia and reperfusion injury on the operated lung. Further, we also aimed to assess the differences in localized and systemic markers of tissue injury/inflammation in those who developed respiratory failure after lung surgery versus matched controls who did not develop respiratory failure. We aimed to assess the different inflammatory/injury marker patterns induced in the operated and ventilated lung and how this compared to the systemic circulating inflammatory/injury marker pattern. A case-control study nested within a prospective cohort study was performed. Patients with postoperative respiratory failure after lung surgery (n = 5) were matched with control patients (n = 6) who did not develop postoperative respiratory failure. Biospecimens (arterial plasma, bronchoalveolar lavage separately from ventilated and operated lungs) were obtained from patients undergoing lung surgery at two timepoints: (1) just prior to initiation of OLV and (2) after lung resection was completed and OLV stopped. Multiplex electrochemiluminescent immunoassays were performed for these biospecimen. We quantified 50 protein biomarkers of inflammation and tissue injury and identified significant differences between those who did and did not develop postoperative respiratory failure. The three biospecimen types also display unique biomarker patterns.

Abstract
Introduction: Aesthetic surgery procedures are generally done in a relatively healthy population and carry a rather low risk compared to other surgical specialties. The incidence of complications in aesthetic surgery varies greatly depending on the type, wound cleanliness regarding the anatomical site, complexity of the surgery, patient's age, and comorbidities but is generally considered low. The overall incidence of surgical site infections (SSIs) in all aesthetic surgical procedures is around 1% in most of the literature while cases of necrotizing soft tissue infections are mostly found as individual reports. In contrast, treating COVID-19 patients is still challenging with many diverse outcomes. Surgical stress and general anesthesia are known mediators of cellular immunity impairment while studies regarding COVID-19 infection unquestionably have shown the deterioration of adaptive immunity by SARS-CoV-2. Adding COVID-19 to the modern surgical equation raises the question of immunocompetence in surgical patients. The main question of the modern post-lockdown world is: what could be expected in the postoperative period of perioperatively asymptomatic COVID-19 patients after aesthetic surgery? Case report: Here, we present a purulent, complicated, necrotizing skin and soft tissue infection (NSTI) after gluteal augmentation most likely triggered by SARS-CoV-2-induced immunosuppression followed by progressive COVID-19 pneumonia in an otherwise healthy, young patient. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of such adverse events in aesthetic surgery related to COVID-19. Conclusion: Aesthetic surgery in patients during the incubation period of COVID-19 or in asymptomatic patients could pose a significant risk for surgical complications, including severe systemic infections and implant loss as well as severe pulmonary and other COVID-19-associated complications.

Preoperative controlling nutritional status score (CONUT) predicts postoperative complications of patients with bronchiectasis after lung resections. Front Nutr 2023; 10:1000046. [PMID: 36742422 PMCID: PMC9895366 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1000046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background The Controlled Nutritional Status (CONUT) score is a valid scoring system for assessing nutritional status and has been shown to correlate with clinical outcomes in many surgical procedures; however, no studies have reported a correlation between postoperative complications of bronchiectasis and the preoperative CONUT score. This study aimed to evaluate the value of the CONUT score in predicting postoperative complications in patients with bronchiectasis. Methods We retrospectively analyzed patients with localized bronchiectasis who underwent lung resection at our hospital between April 2012 and November 2021. The optimal nutritional scoring system was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and incorporated into multivariate logistic regression. Finally, independent risk factors for postoperative complications were determined by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results A total of 240 patients with bronchiectasis were included, including 101 males and 139 females, with an average age of 49.83 ± 13.23 years. Postoperative complications occurred in 59 patients (24.6%). The incidence of complications, postoperative hospital stay and drainage tube indwelling time were significantly higher in the high CONUT group than in the low CONUT group. After adjusting for sex, BMI, smoking history, lung function, extent of resection, intraoperative blood loss, surgical approach and operation time, multivariate analysis showed that the CONUT score remained an independent risk factor for postoperative complications after bronchiectasis. Conclusions The preoperative CONUT score is an independent predictor of postoperative complications in patients with localized bronchiectasis.

Abstract
Purpose: This study retrospectively evaluated the usefulness of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), prognostic nutritional index (PNI), and pulmonary function test (PFT) results as objective predictors of in-hospital postoperative complications after hip fracture surgery in older adults. Methods: The patients aged >65 years who underwent hip fracture surgery under general anaesthesia were enrolled. In-hospital postoperative complications with preoperative NLR, PNI and PFT results were evaluated. The NLR was calculated as the preoperative neutrophil count/lymphocyte count in peripheral blood. The PNI was calculated as the serum albumin (g/dL) × 10 + total lymphocyte count × 0.005 (/mm3). Results: One hundred ninety nine patients were analysed. The most common postoperative complications were respiratory complications. Compared with patients who did not have postoperative complications, patients with postoperative complications had a significantly higher NLR (8.01 ± 4.70 vs. 5.12 ± 4.34, p < 0.001), whereas they had a significantly lower PNI (38.33 ± 6.80 vs. 42.67 ± 6.47, p < 0.001), preoperative functional vital capacity (FVC; 2.04 ± 0.76 vs. 2.45 ± 0.71 L, p < 0.001), and forced expiratory volume at 1 s (FEV1; 1.43 ± 0.53 vs. 1.78 ± 0.58 L, p < 0.001). Multiple logistic regression analysis identified NLR (odds ratio [OR], 1.142; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.060−1.230; p < 0.001) and FEV1 (OR, 0.340; 95% CI, 0.191−0.603; p < 0.001) as risk factors for postoperative complications after hip fracture surgery. Conclusion: Preoperative NLR and FEV1 are objective predictors of in-hospital postoperative complications after hip fracture surgery in older patients.

Abstract
Introduction: Our aim was to use the red cell distribution width-lymphocyte ratio (RLR) as a novel biomarker to predict prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay (LOS) among older patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery. Methods: This longitudinal study included older patients admitted to a tertiary cardiovascular surgery hospital between January 2017 and January 2022. Results: A total of 574 patients were studied, including 83 patients (14.5%) who had prolonged ICU LOS and 471 (85.5%) control subjects. After adjustment for the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation 2, the RLR score showed a 10% increased risk of prolonged ICU LOS (odds ratio: 1.10; CI: 1.05-1.16; p = 0.01). Conclusion: Preoperative RLR can be used to predict the risk of long-term intensive care stay in older cardiac surgery patients.

A comparison of opioid-containing anesthesia versus opioid-free anesthesia using the Cortínez-Sepúlveda model on differential cytokine responses in obese patients undergoing gastric bypass surgery: a randomized controlled trial. BMC Anesthesiol 2022; 22:294.

Abstract
Background Opioid anesthetic agents can modulate the impaired immune response in obese patients through mechanisms that involve the expression and release of cytokines. For this reason, anesthetic care for obese patients remains controversial. Therefore, the aim of the study was to compare the effect of opioid-containing anesthesia (OCA) vs opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) using the Cortínez-Sepúlveda model on IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α serum levels before and after surgery in obese patients undergoing bypass surgery. Methods This randomized cross-sectional study conducted among 40 unrelated obese adults was performed in the Civil Hospital of Guadalajara “Dr. Juan I. Menchaca”. Before undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, patients were randomly assigned to two anesthesia groups: OCA (n = 20) or OFA (n = 20). Fentanyl was the opioid used in the OCA group. The Cortínez-Sepúlveda pharmacokinetic model was used to characterize the disposition of intravenous propofol for the target-controlled infusion technique in obese patients. Body mass was determined to the nearest 0.05 kg using a balance scale (Seca 703; Seca, Hamburg, Germany). Blood samples were taken before and immediately after surgery and cytokine concentrations were determined by ELISA. Pain was assessed using a numerical pain rating scale. Adverse effects were collected within the first 24 h after surgery. Results A total of 6 men and 34 women were included (37.9 ± 10.6 years). Pre-surgery IL-6 and TNF-α serum levels were not detected in study subjects. However, IL-1β levels significantly decreased after surgery (49.58 pg/mL (18.50–112.20)-before surgery vs 13 pg/mL (5.43–22)-after surgery, p = 0.019). IL-6 concentrations were significantly higher in subjects who received OCA (with fentanyl) compared to subjects with OFA (224.5 pg/mL (186.3–262.8) vs 99.5 pg/mL (60.8–138.2), respectively, p < 0.001; adjusted by age, gender, and BMI). In addition, the use of opioids confers an increased risk for higher IL-6 levels in obese patients (OR = 2.95, 95% CI: 1.2–7.2, p = 0.010). A linear regression model showed that the operative time (in hours) of bypass surgery and anesthetic technique were positively correlated with IL-6 levels. Conclusion Anesthesia with opioids correlated positively with IL-6 serum levels in obese patients undergoing bypass surgery. This finding could have clinical relevance when an appropriate anesthetic management plan is selected for bariatric surgical patients. Trial registration The study was retrospectively registered at ClinicalTrials.gov Identification Number: NCT04854252, date 22/04/2021.

Abstract
Systemic inflammation (SI) is a response of the immune system to infectious or non-infectious injuries that defends the body homeostasis. Every surgical intervention triggers SI, the level of which depends on the extent of damage caused by the surgery. During the first few hours after the damage, the innate or natural immunity, involving neutrophils, macrophages, and natural killer cells, plays a main role in the defense mechanism, but thereafter the adaptive immune response ensues. The number of leukocytes is elevated, the levels of lymphocytes and natural killer cells are reduced, and the cytokines released after surgery correlate with surgical damage. Minimally invasive thoracic surgery procedures induce less inflammatory response and reduce the immune defense in patients to a more moderate level compared with the open surgery procedures; this immunosuppression can be further diminished in spontaneous ventilation cases. The normal functioning of the immune defense is important in controlling the perioperative circulatory tumor cells. Moreover, elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines before immune therapy have a negative impact on the response, and significantly shorten the progression-free survival. Clinically, the lower are the levels of cytokines released during lung surgery, the lesser is the postoperative morbidity, especially pneumonia and wound infection. The return to normal levels of lymphocytes and cytokines occurs faster after spontaneous ventilation surgery. The use of locoregional anesthesia can also reduce SI. Herein, we review the current knowledge on the effects of different operative factors on postoperative SI and defense mechanism in lung cancer surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To design and establish a prospective biospecimen repository that integrates multi-omics assays with clinical data to study mechanisms of controlled injury and healing. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Elective surgery is an opportunity to understand both the systemic and focal responses accompanying controlled and well-characterized injury to the human body. The overarching goal of this ongoing project is to define stereotypical responses to surgical injury, with the translational purpose of identifying targetable pathways involved in healing and resilience, and variations indicative of aberrant peri-operative outcomes. METHODS Clinical data from the electronic medical record combined with large-scale biological data sets derived from blood, urine, fecal matter, and tissue samples are collected prospectively through the peri-operative period on patients undergoing fourteen surgeries chosen to represent a range of injury locations and intensities. Specimens are subjected to genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic assays to describe their genetic, metabolic, immunologic, and microbiome profiles, providing a multidimensional landscape of the human response to injury. RESULTS The highly multiplexed data generated includes changes in over 28,000 mRNA transcripts, 100 plasma metabolites, 200 urine metabolites, and 400 proteins over the longitudinal course of surgery and recovery. In our initial pilot dataset, we demonstrate the feasibility of collecting high quality multi-omic data at pre- and post-operative time points and are already seeing evidence of physiologic perturbation between timepoints. CONCLUSIONS This repository allows for longitudinal, state-of-the-art genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, metabolomic, immunologic, and clinical data collection and provides a rich and stable infrastructure on which to fuel further biomedical discovery.

Immune Modulatory Effects of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs in the Perioperative Period and Their Consequence on Postoperative Outcome. Anesthesiology 2022; 136:843-860. [PMID: 35180291 DOI: 10.1097/aln.0000000000004141] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are among the most commonly administered drugs in the perioperative period due to their prominent role in pain management. However, they potentially have perioperative consequences due to immune-modulating effects through the inhibition of prostanoid synthesis, thereby affecting the levels of various cytokines. These effects may have a direct impact on the postoperative outcome of patients since the immune system aims to restore homeostasis and plays an indispensable role in regeneration and repair. By affecting the immune response, consequences can be expected on various organ systems. This narrative review aims to highlight these potential immune system-related consequences, which include systemic inflammatory response syndrome, acute respiratory distress syndrome, immediate and persistent postoperative pain, effects on oncological and neurologic outcome, and wound, anastomotic, and bone healing.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION An excessive perioperative inflammatory reaction can lead to more postoperative complications in patients treated for gastrointestinal cancers. It has been suggested that this inflammatory reaction leads to oxidative stress. The most important nonenzymatic antioxidants are serum free thiols. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether high preoperative serum free thiol levels are associated with short-term clinical outcomes. METHODS Blood samples were drawn before, at the end of, and 1 and 2 days after surgery of a consecutive series of patients with gastrointestinal cancer. Serum free thiols were detected using a colorimetric detection method using Ellman's reagent. Short-term clinical outcomes were defined as 30-day complications (Clavien-Dindo ≥2) and length of hospital stay. Logistic regression was applied to examine the association between serum free thiol levels and short-term patient outcomes. RESULTS Eighty-one patients surgically treated for gastrointestinal cancer were included in the study. Median age was 68 (range 26-87) years, and 28% were female. Patients in the lowest tertile of preoperative serum free thiols had a threefold higher risk to develop postoperative complications (odds ratio [OR]: 3.4; 95% confidence interval [CI]:1.1-10.7) and a fourfold higher risk to have an increased length of stay in the hospital (OR 4.0; 95% CI 1.3-12.9) compared with patients in the highest tertile. CONCLUSIONS Patients with lower preoperative serum free thiol levels, indicating a decrease in extracellular antioxidant capacity and therefore an increase in systemic oxidative stress, are more likely to develop postoperative complications and show a longer in hospital stay than patients with higher serum free thiol levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are limited data to detail the perioperative anesthetic management and the incidence of postoperative respiratory complications among patients requiring an anesthetic procedure while being SARS-CoV-2 positive or suspected. METHODS An observational multicenter cohort study was performed including consecutive patients who were SARS-CoV-2 confirmed or suspected and who underwent scheduled and emergency anesthesia between March 17 and May 26, 2020. RESULTS A total of 187 patients underwent anesthesia with SARS-CoV-2 confirmed or suspected, with ultimately 135 (72.2%) patients positive and 52 (27.8%) negative. The median SOFA score was 2 [0; 5], and the median ARISCAT score was 49 [36; 67]. The major respiratory complications rate was 48.7% (n = 91) with 40.4% (n = 21) and 51.9% (n = 70) in the SARS-CoV-2-negative and -positive groups, respectively (p = 0.21). Among both positive and negative groups, patients with a high ARISCAT risk score (> 44) had a higher risk of presenting major respiratory complications (p < 0.01 and p = 0.1, respectively). DISCUSSION When comparing SARS-COV-2-positive and -negative patients, no significant difference was found regarding the rate of postoperative complications, while baseline characteristics strongly impact these outcomes. This finding suggests that patients should be scheduled for anesthetic procedures based on their overall risk of postoperative complication, and not just based on their SARS-CoV-2 status.

Reduction of NETosis by targeting CXCR1/2 reduces thrombosis, lung injury, and mortality in experimental human and murine sepsis. Br J Anaesth 2022; 128:283-293. [PMID: 34893315 PMCID: PMC8792833 DOI: 10.1016/j.bja.2021.10.039] [Citation(s) in RCA: 33] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2021] [Revised: 10/06/2021] [Accepted: 10/16/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) facilitate bacterial clearance but also promote thrombosis and organ injury in sepsis. We quantified ex vivo NET induction in septic humans and murine models of sepsis to identify signalling pathways that may be modulated to improve outcome in human sepsis. METHODS NET formation in human donor neutrophils was quantified after incubation with plasma obtained from patients with sepsis or systemic inflammation (double-blinded assessment of extracellular DNA using immunofluorescence microscopy). NET formation (% neutrophils forming NETs) was correlated with plasma cytokine levels (MultiPlex assay). Experimental sepsis (caecal ligation and puncture or intraperitoneal injection of Escherichia coli) was assessed in C57/BL6 male mice. The effect of pharmacological inhibition of CXCR1/2 signalling (reparixin) on NET formation, organ injury (hepatic, renal, and cardiac biomarkers), and survival in septic mice was examined. RESULTS NET formation was higher after incubation with plasma from septic patients (median NETs=25% [10.5-46.5%]), compared with plasma obtained from patients with systemic inflammation (14% [4.0-23.3%]; P=0.02). Similar results were observed after incubation of plasma from mice with neutrophils from septic non-septic mice. Circulating CXCR1/2 ligands correlated with NETosis in patients (interleukin-8; r=0.643) and mice (macrophage inflammatory protein-2; r=0.902). In experimental sepsis, NETs were primarily observed in the lungs, correlating with fibrin deposition (r=0.702) and lung injury (r=0.692). Inhibition of CXCR1/2 using reparixin in septic mice reduced NET formation, multi-organ injury, and mortality, without impairing bacterial clearance. CONCLUSION CXCR1/2 signalling-induced NET formation is a therapeutic target in sepsis, which may be guided by ex vivo NET assays.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION patients undergoing pulmonary resection may experience local or remote complications in the postoperative period due to the inflammatory response, which increases the length of hospital stay and costs. This study objective was to establish an expanded interleukins profile, identifying the main actors in the postoperative inflammatory response, and to correlate them with clinical and laboratory data of patients submitted to pulmonary resection. METHODS this was a prospective, interventional, longitudinal study of 27 cases of pulmonary resection performed at HC-UNICAMP, in which we analyzed serum levels of IL 1 α, IL 1 β, IL 1 ra, IL 2, IL 13, IL 6, IL 8, IL 10, IL 12 (p40), IL 12 (p70), IL 17a, TNF α, TNF β, IFN γ, TGF β, MIP 1α, MIP 1β, MCP 1, MCP 3, VEGF, and clinical data before, during, and after surgery. RESULTS Individuals had a median age of 63 years, 16 (59%) being male and 11 (41%), female. The clinical factors that influenced inflammatory response were body mass index, smoking, and previous use of corticosteroids, while the influencing laboratory data were the numbers of leukocytes and platelets. Discussion: within this expanded interleukin profile in the inflammatory response of lung resections, our study showed that interleukins IL 6, IL 8, IL 10, IL 1 β, and TNF α should be considered for assessing humoral inflammation. CONCLUSION this study can aid in the identification of clinical or pharmacological interventions that modulate the inflammatory response in the perioperative period of pulmonary resections, mitigating local and systemic complications.

Abstract
Surgical resection is the foundation for the curative treatment of solid tumors. However, metastatic recurrence due to the difficulty in eradicating micrometastases remain a feared outcome. Paradoxically, despite the beneficial effects of surgical removal of the primary tumor, the physiological stress resulting from surgical trauma serves to promote cancer recurrence and metastasis. The postoperative environment suppresses critical anti-tumor immune effector cells, including Natural Killer (NK) cells. The literature suggests that NK cells are critical mediators in the formation of metastases immediately following surgery. The following review will highlight the mechanisms that promote the formation of micrometastases by directly or indirectly inducing NK cell suppression following surgery. These include tissue hypoxia, neuroendocrine activation, hypercoagulation, the pro-inflammatory phase, and the anti-inflammatory phase. Perioperative therapeutic strategies designed to prevent or reverse NK cell dysfunction will also be examined for their potential to improve cancer outcomes by preventing surgery-induced metastases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The inflammatory response after surgery is associated with patient prognosis. Patients who undergo thoracic surgery exhibit a profound systemic inflammatory response due to the surgical procedures used and application of one-lung ventilation. The aim of this study was to compare perioperative inflammatory changes in patients after intubated and non-intubated thoracic surgery for primary lung cancer resection. METHODS This prospective randomized controlled study included forty patients who underwent surgical resection for stage I non-small-cell lung cancer. Blood samples for cytokine analysis were collected just before induction, at 1 and 24 h after surgery. Levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine and anti-inflammatory cytokines were measured using quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay kits. RESULTS The basal values of cytokines were comparable between 2 groups. Within each group, the postoperative levels of interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6 and tumour necrosis factor-α increased, while those of IL-4 and IL-10 did not change significantly. The levels of IL-6 and tumour necrosis factor-α were significantly lower in group NI at 1 and 24 h postoperatively. Other cytokines did not differ in both groups during postoperative period. The IL-6/IL-10 ratio at 1 h after surgery was lower in non-intubated patients than in intubated patients, but there was no difference at 24 h after surgery. CONCLUSIONS Non-intubated thoracic surgery may attenuate the early inflammatory cytokine changes following major resection for primary lung cancer compared with intubated conventional surgery.

Abstract
Objective While studies have reported increased post-operative pulmonary complications with SARS-CoV-2 infection, many are limited by use of historical controls or focus on less severe respiratory complications. We characterized the association between pre-operative SARS-CoV-2 infection and post-operative respiratory failure (PORF). Design and setting This was a single center retrospective cohort study in New York City between March 14–June 14, 2020. Patients Exclusion criteria were age < 18-years, obstetric procedures, absence of SARS-CoV-2 PCR testing, and pre-operative respiratory failure. A total of 778 patients met criteria, of which 87 had SARS-CoV-2. Measurements The primary outcome, PORF, included inability to extubate for ≥24 h or unplanned re-intubation within 5 days. Multiple exposures were measured including SARS-CoV-2 infection 4 weeks before or 5 days after surgery. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to adjust for pre-operative hypoxemia, oxygen use, and pneumonia as well as tachycardia, gender, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), Surgical Mortality Probability Model (S-MPM) index, and peri-operative blood transfusion. Main results SARS-CoV patients had higher CCI (P = 0.007) and S-MPM scores (P = 0.02). The incidence of PORF was 16% versus 7% in uninfected comparators (P = 0.001). Amongst infected individuals, 39% exhibited symptoms of COVID-19 and PORF was more common in these patients compared to asymptomatic individuals (26% vs. 9%, P = 0.04). Adjusted analysis revealed increased odds of PORF with infection (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.2–6.2). This persisted even when adjusting for probable mediators such as pre-operative hypoxemia. Infected patients also demonstrated increased adjusted odds of 30-day mortality (OR 3.5, 95% CI 1.4–9.1). Conclusions Detection of SARS-CoV-2 infection within 4 weeks before or 5 days after surgery is associated with increased odds of 5-day PORF and 30-day mortality. This supports delaying elective surgery, but questions remain regarding the applicability of this recommendation for asymptomatic patients needing urgent or semi-urgent procedures such as oncologic surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative complications in surgery are a significant burden, not only for the patients but also economically. While several predicting factors have already been identified, it is still not well known if increased levels of inflammatory markers in the immediate perioperative phase correlate with a higher incidence of postoperative complications. This study aimed to evaluate which patient characteristics and intraoperative parameters correlate with increased plasma values of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) of thoracic surgery patients. A second goal was to explore whether MCP-1 and IL-6 are associated with the incidence of postoperative complications. We hypothesized that there is a positive association between inflammatory markers and the occurrence of complications within 6 months after surgery. METHODS This is a substudy of a recent randomized controlled trial, which defined the effect of desflurane versus propofol anesthesia on morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing thoracic surgery. MCP-1 and IL-6 were determined in plasma obtained before and 30 minutes after 1-lung ventilation, 6 hours after surgery, and on postoperative days 1 and 2. Complications were recorded for 6 months. Mixed linear models were used to examine factors associated with MCP-1 and IL-6 levels. Logistic regression models and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to determine the association between MCP-1 and IL-6 and postoperative complications. RESULTS In the original study, 460 patients were included, MCP-1 and IL-6 levels were determined in 428 patients. MCP-1 was positively associated with the duration of surgery (P = .016), whereas IL-6 levels increased with both the length (P < .001) and invasiveness of lung surgery (thoracoscopic wedge resection or lobectomy versus open lobectomy, P = .005; thoracoscopic wedge resection or lobectomy versus pneumonectomy, P = .021). In an exploratory approach, elevated IL-6 plasma peaks were associated with the occurrence of severe complications defined as Clavien-Dindo score grade ≥IVa during the postoperative phase up to 6 months after thoracic surgery (P = .006). CONCLUSIONS In summary, this substudy reveals factors, which correlate with high MCP-1 and IL-6 values. Moreover, higher IL-6 seems to be associated with postoperative severe complications. Perioperative IL-6 monitoring might be helpful for risk estimation in the perioperative setting of patients after lung surgery.

Abstract
Background: The impact of cigarette smoking on perianesthesia management is not clear elucidated. This paper studies the impact of long-term cigarette smoking on the dose-response of rocuronium and vecuronium used under general anesthesia and the type of antibiotics used after surgery. Methods: We enrolled 240 participants from a teaching hospital in China in which finally enrolled in 221 participants. 106 participants have a history of long-term cigarette use and 115 participants without a history of smoking. All participants received general anesthesia for various surgeries, and rocuronium was used as the muscular relaxant. The primary outcome was the effective onset time of rocuronium after adjusting for its dose. The secondary outcomes included a recovery index and the time of muscle recovery changing from 25 to 75%. Results: There was no measurable difference in the muscle relaxant onset time, duration of effectiveness, 75% recovery, recovery index, dose of opiates, anesthetics during surgery, or complication rate between smokers or non-smokers. However, the results showed a significant difference in antibiotic use between smokers and non-smokers (chi-squared = 13.695, p < 0.001), and a significant difference in the type of antibiotics used (chi-squared = 21.465, p = 0.003). Smokers had a significantly higher rate of cefathiamidine use. Conclusion: Smoking cigarettes had no effect on muscle relaxants used under general anesthesia, but patients who had a history of smoking were more likely to receive antibiotics after surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Quantification and optimization of perioperative risk factors focusing on anesthesia-related strategies to reduce postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) after lung and esophageal surgery. RECENT FINDINGS There is an increasing amount of multimorbid patients undergoing thoracic surgery due to the demographic development and medical progress in perioperative medicine. Nevertheless, the rate of PPCs after thoracic surgery is still up to 30-50% with a significant influence on patients' outcome. PPCs are ranked first among the leading causes of early mortality after thoracic surgery. Although patients' risk factors are usually barely modifiable, current research focuses on procedural risk factors. From the surgical position, the minimal-invasive approach using video-assisted thoracoscopy and laparoscopy leads to a decreased rate of PPCs. The anesthesiological strategy to reduce the incidence of PPCs after thoracic surgery includes neuroaxial anesthesia, lung-protective ventilation, and goal-directed hemodynamic therapy. SUMMARY The main anesthesiological strategies to reduce PPCs after thoracic surgery include the use of epidural anesthesia, lung-protective ventilation: PEEP (positive end-expiratory pressure) of 5-8 mbar, tidal volume of 5 ml/kg BW (body weight) and goal-directed hemodynamics: CI (cardiac index) ≥ 2.5 l/min per m2, MAD (Mean arterial pressure) ≥ 70 mmHg, SVV (stroke volume variation) < 10% with a total amount of perioperative crystalloid fluids ≤ 6 ml/kg BW (body weight) per hour.

Abstract
Background The pathophysiological roles of serum cytokine levels in critically ill surgical patients has yet to be determined. This study aimed to determine the predictive prognostic values of serum interleukin IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and procalcitonin (PCT) in surgical intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Methods Cytokine concentrations were measured with an IMMULITE 1000 Immunoassay System (Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics GmbH, Berlin, Germany). The study population was divided into quartiles according to the patients’ cytokine levels: Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4. The optimal cutoff values of IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, and PCT level for predicting mortality were established by drawing receiver operating characteristic curves. Results The levels of IL-2 in Q3 [odds ratio (OR) =4.434, 95% confidence intervals (95% CI): 1.527–12.874] and Q4 (OR =7.715, 95% CI: 2.744–21.693) were significantly higher than those in the Q1. The same results were noted in IL-6 and IL-8, and only Q4 (OR =2.383, 95% CI: 1.419–4.001) showed significance in the level of TNF-α. For IL-2, a cutoff value of 930.5 U/mL yielded a sensitivity of 69.39% and a specificity of 80.16% for the prediction of clinical outcome [area under the curve (AUC): 0.822; 95% CI: 0.789–0.855]. For IL-6, a cutoff value of 50.95 pg/mL showed discrimination ability, yielding a sensitivity of 71.43% and a specificity of 61.75% for (AUC: 0.704; 95% CI: 0.660–0.748). For IL-8, a cutoff value of 44.1 pg/mL yielded a sensitivity of 57.82% and a specificity of 79.58% for predicting clinical outcome (AUC: 0.753; 95% CI: 0.713–0.793). For TNF-α, a cutoff value of 11.95 pg/mL yielded a sensitivity and specificity of 68.66% and 72.90%, respectively, in predicting clinical outcome (AUC: 0.758; 95% CI: 0.717–0.800). The positive likelihood ratios for IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α were 3.50, 1.87, 2.83 and 2.53, and the negative likelihood ratios were 0.38, 0.46, 0.53, and 0.43, respectively. Conclusions In critically ill patients, high levels of IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α in the first 24 h postoperatively were associated with clinical outcome. However, the effect of PCT level on prognosis still requires further study.

Abstract
The immune system is an evolutionary hallmark of higher organisms that defends the host against invading pathogens and exogenous infections. This defense includes the recruitment of immune cells to the site of infection and the initiation of an inflammatory response to contain and eliminate pathogens. However, an inflammatory response may also be triggered by noninfectious stimuli such as major surgery, and, in case of an overshooting, still not comprehensively understood reaction, lead to tissue destruction and organ dysfunction. Unfortunately, in some cases, the immune system may not effectively distinguish between stimuli elicited by major surgery, which ideally should only require a modest inflammatory response, and those elicited by trauma or pathogenic infection. Surgical procedures thus represent a potential trigger for systemic inflammation that causes the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines, endothelial dysfunction, glycocalyx damage, activation of neutrophils, and ultimately tissue and multisystem organ destruction. In this review, we discuss and summarize currently available mechanistic knowledge on surgery-associated systemic inflammation, demarcation toward other inflammatory complications, and possible therapeutic options. These options depend on uncovering the underlying mechanisms and could include pharmacologic agents, remote ischemic preconditioning protocols, cytokine blockade or clearance, and optimization of surgical procedures, anesthetic regimens, and perioperative inflammatory diagnostic assessment. Currently, a large gap between basic science and clinically confirmed data exists due to a limited evidence base of translational studies. We thus summarize important steps toward the understanding of the precise time- and space-regulated processes in systemic perioperative inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) surgery contributes to improved survival, adjuvant chemotherapy delivery and less postoperative complications. Nonintubated thoracic surgery (NITS) VATS procedures improves immunological responses in lung cancer patients; however, there is no data regarding adjuvant chemotherapy delivery effectiveness following NITS lobectomies. In this study, we aimed to compare protocol compliance and toxic complications during adjuvant chemotherapy after intubated and nonintubated VATS lobectomies in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 66, stage IB-IIIB NSCLC patients who underwent intubated or nonintubated VATS lobectomy and received adjuvant chemotherapy. RESULTS A total of 38 patients (17 males, mean age 64 years) underwent conventional VATS and 28 (7 males; mean age 63 years) uniportal VATS NITS. Both groups had comparable demographic data, preoperative pulmonary function, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) status. Among the intubated and nonintubated patients, 82% and 75% were diagnosed with adenocarcinoma, respectively. The incidence of adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma cases were similar in both groups; however, the pathological staging showed significant differences, as 5 (18%) nonintubated patients had stage IB lung cancer, compared with the intubated group (P = 0.01). Further distribution of stages was similar between the groups. We observed significant differences in chest tube duration and operation time in the nonintubated group (P < 0.01). Among nonintubated patients, 92% completed the planned chemotherapy protocol, compared to 71% of the intubated group (P = 0.035). Grade 1/2 toxicity occurred significantly more often in the intubated group (16% vs. 0%, P = 0.03) and there was a lower incidence of grade 4 neutropenia in the nonintubated group (0% vs. 16%, P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Our results showed that the nonintubated procedure resulted in improved adjuvant chemotherapy compliance and lower toxicity rates after lobectomy. KEY POINTS SIGNIFICANT FINDINGS OF THE STUDY: Oncological advantage of the non-intubated thoracic surgery: better compliance with therapy protocol. What this study adds NITS lobectomies contribute to better administration of adjuvant chemotherapy with the planned cycle number and dosage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate prognostic biomarkers would substantially improve surgical planning and decisions making yet no studies have been reported exploring the inflammatory response in surgically treated older patients with cancer. The aim of this study was to explore inflammatory biomarkers as potential prognostic factors for postoperative complications within 30 days in older patients with cancer. METHOD Patients 65 years and older undergoing surgery for removal of a solid malignant tumour were included in an observational cohort study. All complications occurring up to 30 days postoperatively were documented prospectively. Inflammatory markers were measured in plasma samples pre- and postoperatively: C-reactive protein (CRP), Interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, and Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). Associations between inflammatory markers and postoperative complications were explored using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS Between July 2010 and April 2014, plasma samples of 224 patients were collected. Median age was 72 (65-89) years and 116 (51.8%) patients were female. Approximately half of the patients developed postoperative complications (49.6%) of whom 62 patients (55.9%) developed >1 complication. An independent prognostic effect was observed for the inflammatory biomarkers IL-6 and IL-10 for the occurrence of postoperative complications. CONCLUSION The perioperative inflammatory response is associated with complications, independently from patient and surgical factors which are also associated with outcome. Research is warranted towards further exploration of the perioperative inflammatory response with the aim to improve perioperative care and outcome, and might help to improve surgical planning and decision making for older patients with cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare morning surgery (Group A), characterized by high cortisol levels, with afternoon surgery (Group B), characterized by low cortisol levels, with respect to cortisol, inflammatory cytokines (interleukin [IL]-6, IL-8), and postoperative hospital days (POHD) after hip surgery. METHODS The study was conducted in a single center, prospective, randomized (1:1) parallel group trial. Patients undergoing total hip replacement or hemiarthroplasty were randomly divided into two groups according to the surgery start time: 8 AM (Group A) or 1-2 PM (Group B). Cortisol and cytokine levels were measured at 7:30 AM on the day of surgery, before induction of anesthesia, and at 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours (h) after surgery. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and POHD were used to evaluate the clinical effect of surgery start time. VAS was measured at 6, 12, 24, and 48 h postoperatively, and POHD was measured at discharge. RESULTS In total, 44 patients completed the trial. The postoperative cortisol level was significantly different between the two groups. (24 h, P < .001; 48 h, P < .001). The percentage of patients whose level returned to the initial level was higher in Group B than in Group A (P < .001). Significant differences in IL-6 levels were observed between the two groups at 12, 24, and 48 h after surgery (P = .015; P = .005; P = .002), and in IL-8 levels at 12 and 24 h after surgery (P = .002, P < .001). There was no significant difference between the two groups in VAS and POHD. However, only three patients in Group A were inpatients for more than 3 weeks (P = .233). CONCLUSIONS Afternoon surgery allowed for more rapid recovery of cortisol to the baseline level than morning surgery, and IL-6 and IL-8 were lower at 1-2 days postoperatively. The results of this study suggest that afternoon surgery may be considered in patients with postoperative delayed wound healing or inflammation because of the difference in cortisol, IL-6 and 8 in according to surgery start time.
