Jia Z, Jin C, Pan D, Chen D. Association between red blood cell distribution width and all-cause mortality of patients after intra-aortic balloon pump in the intensive care unit. Heliyon 2024; 10:e27498. [PMID: 38509938 PMCID: PMC10950574 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e27498] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 02/28/2024] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Objectives This study aimed to explore the relationship between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and all-cause mortality in critically ill patients undergoing intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) in the intensive care unit (ICU). Methods This study retrospectively analyzed data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. The primary endpoint was the 30-day mortality rate, while the secondary endpoint was the in-hospital mortality rate. Restricted cubic splines were used to assess the dose-response relationship. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Kaplan-Meier curve analysis were carried out to evaluate the predictive performance of RDW. Moreover, multiple logistic regression analyses and subgroup analyses were conducted to investigate the relationship between RDW and 30-day mortality. Finally, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to adjust for the imbalance of covariates. Results In total, 732 patients were finally identified from the MIMIC-IV database in this study. The RDW of patients in the non-survivor group was significantly higher compared with those in the survivor group (P < 0.01). Multiple logistic regression analyses corroborated RDW was an independent predictor of all-cause 30-day mortality in critically ill patients post-IABP. Meanwhile, ROC analysis identified an RDW cutoff of 14.2%. High RDW patients exhibited a 131% (OR = 2.31, 95% CI: 1.49-3.61) elevated risk of 30-day mortality after adjusting for confounders in multivariable logistic regression. After PSM, 412 patients were included in the matched cohort. In the original and matched cohorts, the high RDW group had higher 30-day and in-hospital mortality rates, as well as longer ICU stays. Lastly, the area under the ROC curve for 30-day mortality was 0.686, with an optimal cutoff point of 14.2 for RDW (sensitivity: 69.09 % and specificity: 63.32%). Conclusion RDW could be a simple and valuable prognostic tool to predict mortality in critically ill patients after IABP.

Int J Gen Med 2023; 16:5989-6003. [PMID: 38144439 PMCID: PMC10748743 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s444585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 12/09/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the association between red blood cell distribution width (RDW) changes and major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) occurrences during sacubitril/valsartan treatment in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Methods This study retrospectively analyzed the medical records of patients with HFrEF hospitalized from April 2018 to February 2021. The patients were divided into two groups according to the inclusion of sacubitril/valsartan in the personal drug treatment regimen, the traditional and the sacubitril/valsartan group. RDW values before and after sacubitril/valsartan treatment were recorded respectively as RDW1 and RDW2. ΔRDW was defined as the difference between RDW2 and RDW1. The patients in the sacubitril/valsartan group were divided into two subgroups according to ΔRDW >0 or ≤0. MACEs, such as readmission for HF, acute myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, and malignant arrhythmia and death, were recorded during the 1-year follow-up period in each group. Results MACE development was lower in patients treated with sacubitril/valsartan than those treated with conventional therapy (log-rank, P<0.001). The incidence of cardiac events during the follow-up period was greater in the group with ΔRDW >0 than in the group with ΔRDW ≤0 (Breslow, P<0.001). Increased RDW was associated with a higher likelihood of developing MACE than decreased RDW (odds ratio [OR] =2.055, 95% confidence interval [CI]:1.301-3.246), and the risk of developing MACE increased by 22.1% for each unit increase in RDW (OR=1.221, 95% CI:1.074-1.389). Conclusion Sacubitril/valsartan treatment is effective in reducing the risk of MACEs in HFrEF. Additionally, RDW changes are predictors of MACEs after sacubitril/valsartan treatment.

Red Cell Distribution Width as a Predictive Factor of Celiac Disease in Middle and Late Adulthood and Its Potential Utility as Celiac Disease Screening Criterion. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 20:66. [PMID: 36612390 PMCID: PMC9819159 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph20010066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Revised: 12/15/2022] [Accepted: 12/16/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Red cell distribution width (RDW) could be of interest by its potential use in the assessment of celiac disorder (CD). The main objective of this study was to evaluate the case positive rate of CD and the utility of red cell distribution width (RDW) in the CD diagnosis. This prospective study included 9.066 middle adult (≥45 years old) and elderly patients (≥60 years old) from 2012 to 2021. CD diagnosis was performed by CD antibody tests (serology and Human Leucocyte Antigen genotype (HLA)) and biopsy. Gastrointestinal and extra-intestinal manifestations as well as hematological and biochemical parameters were analyzed. CD diagnoses were confirmed in 101 patients (median (IQR) age = 62 (52.3−73); 68.32% women) by serologic tests (100%) and intestinal biopsy (88.12%), showing mainly marked or complete atrophy (76.24%, MARSH 3a−c). Anemia was the most commonly presenting extra-intestinal manifestation (28.57%). Among 8975 individuals without CD, 168 age and sex matched were included. By comparison of CD and no CD individuals, we observed that high >14.3% RDW was exhibited by 58.40% and 35.2% individuals with CD and without CD, respectively. Furthermore, high RDW is associated with CD and grade III atrophy. We suggest that RDW could be used as a CD screening criterion.

Abstract
The mechanism underlying the association between elevated red cell distribution width (RDW) and poor prognosis in variety of diseases is unknown although many researchers consider RDW a marker of inflammation. We hypothesized that RDW directly affects intravascular hemodynamics, interactions between circulating cells and vessel wall, inducing local changes predisposing to atherothrombosis. We applied different human and animal models to verify our hypothesis. Carotid plaques harvested from patients with high RDW had increased expression of genes and proteins associated with accelerated atherosclerosis as compared to subjects with low RDW. In microfluidic channels samples of blood from high RDW subjects showed flow pattern facilitating direct interaction with vessel wall. Flow pattern was also dependent on RDW value in mouse carotid arteries analyzed with Magnetic Resonance Imaging. In different mouse models of elevated RDW accelerated development of atherosclerotic lesions in aortas was observed. Therefore, comprehensive biological, fluid physics and optics studies showed that variation of red blood cells size measured by RDW results in increased interactions between vascular wall and circulating morphotic elements which contribute to vascular pathology.

Dynamic Changes in Red Cell Distribution Width Can Predict Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events after PCI in Patients with Unstable Angina Pectoris: A Retrospective Cohort Study. DISEASE MARKERS 2022; 2022:2735717. [PMID: 35722627 PMCID: PMC9200587 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2735717] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2022] [Revised: 05/17/2022] [Accepted: 05/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Background The increased red cell distribution width (RDW) is related to a higher risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, it is yet unclear whether the dynamic change of RDW is associated with the major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) for individual with CVD. Methods and Results A cohort study was conducted among 228 patients who had unstable angina (UA) and underwent PCI. RDW was measured preceding PCI and re-measured on the 16th week after PCI. The change of RDW values was defined as ΔRDW. The patients were divided into 3 groups in accordance with ΔRDW: improved, stable, and worsened RDW groups. The patients were followed up for 6 years, and MACE episodes were recorded. The survival analysis showed that the incidence of MACEs in stable RDW group was significantly lower than that in improved and worsened RDW groups. By the COX model, the risk of the occurrence of cardiovascular events in improved RDW group was 1.661 times higher than the risk in stable RDW group (HR =1.661, 95% CI: 1.583-2.880, p < 0.05) and the same situation was 3.307 times higher in worsened RDW group (HR =3.307, 95% CI: 1.830-5.041, p < 0.05). Conclusion The measurement of ΔRDW has potential to predict the MACEs in UA patients underwent PCI. The dynamic changes in RDW are associated with the outcome of CVD.
