Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To examine the most recent evidence about known controversies on the effect of perioperative transfusion on cancer progression. RECENT FINDINGS Laboratory evidence suggests that transfusion-related immunomodulation can be modified by blood management and storage practices, but it is likely of less intensity than the effect of the surgical stress response. Clinical evidence has questioned the independent effect of blood transfusion on cancer progression for some cancers but supported it for others. Despite major changes in surgery and anesthesia, cancer surgery remains a major player in perioperative blood product utilization. Prospective data is still required to strengthen or refute existing associations. Transfusion-related immunomodulation in cancer surgery is well-documented, but the extent to which it affects cancer progression is unclear. Associations between transfusion and cancer progression are disease-specific. Increasing evidence shows autologous blood transfusion may be safe in cancer surgery.

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic blood transfusions (BT) for patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery have demonstrated to increase postoperative morbidity and mortality. It has been suggested that the utilization of preoperative iron infusions may reduce the requirement for allogeneic BT in these patients. The aim of this project is to ascertain whether the preoperative use of intravenous iron is significantly associated with a reduction in perioperative blood transfusion requirement. METHODS A retrospective study of 130 patients was conducted in Blacktown Hospital, Australia. Data pertaining to patient demographics, as well as quantity of preoperative iron infusion and perioperative blood transfusion was collected. RESULTS Twenty-six (20%) patients required perioperative BT. Twenty-seven underwent preoperative iron infusion, with 20 of them not requiring BT and seven requiring BT. There was no evidence to suggest preoperative iron infusion reduces blood transfusion requirement (RR 1.55, 95% CI 0.57-4.18, P=0.39). For elective procedures, no significance was also demonstrated (RR 1.20, 95% CI 0.29-4.92, P=0.80). CONCLUSIONS There is no evidence suggesting that preoperative iron infusion reduces the requirement for perioperative blood transfusion in colorectal cancer surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To identify the risk factors for postoperative hydrocephalus and the need for ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt after posterior fossa tumor (PFT) resection in pediatric patients and establish a predictive model. METHODS A total of 217 pediatric patients (≤14 years old) with PFTs who underwent tumor resection from November 2010 to December 2020 were divided into a VP shunt group (n = 29) and non-VP shunt group (n = 188). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were performed. A predictive model was established based on the independent predictors. Receiver operating characteristic curves were generated to determine the cutoff values and areas under the curve (AUCs). The Delong test was performed to compare the AUCs. RESULTS Age less than three years (P = 0.015, odds ratio [OR] = 3.760), blood loss (BL) (P = 0.002, OR = 1.601), and locations at fourth ventricle (P < 0.001, OR = 7.697) were the independent predictors. The predictive model was as follows: total score = age (<3; yes = 2, no = 0) + BL + tumor locations (fourth ventricle; yes = 5, no = 0). The AUC of our model was higher than those of age less than three years, BL, locations at the fourth ventricle, and compound factors (age <3 + locations) (0.842 vs 0.609, 0.734, 0.732, and 0.788, respectively). The cutoff values of the model and BL were 7.5 points and 2.75 U, respectively. CONCLUSIONS BL, age less than three years, and tumors at the fourth ventricle were independent predictors. Model scores over 7.5 points predict a high risk.

Association of CD200 expression in paternal lymphocytes with female Th1/Th2 balance and pregnancy establishment at immunotherapy of recurrent spontaneous abortion. Am J Reprod Immunol 2020; 85:e13355. [PMID: 33015886 DOI: 10.1111/aji.13355] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2020] [Revised: 09/11/2020] [Accepted: 09/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
PROBLEM We hypothesized that expression of transmembrane glycoprotein CD200 on paternal lymphocytes used for pre-gestational lymphocyte immunotherapy (LIT) of recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) can suppress the pro-inflammatory Th1-type immunity required for successful implantation. To reveal the association between CD200 expression, female immune background after LIT, and pregnancy establishment, we have performed this work. METHOD OF STUDY Pre-gestational alloimmunizations were given to 37 women using paternal peripheral blood leukocytes, combined with additional alloimmunizations in case of pregnancy. Lymphocyte phenotypes were determined by flow cytometry. Cytokines produced by mitogen-stimulated female peripheral blood cells were estimated by FlowCytomix™ technology. RESULTS We have shown that 78.4% (29/37) of women became pregnant within 12 menstrual cycles after pre-gestational LIT. Pregnancy establishment depends on the intensity of CD200 expression, which is significantly higher on the CD200+ lymphocytes administered to women who later did not achieve pregnancy (P < .05). The expression of CD200 negatively correlates with the ratios of Th1/Th2 cytokines produced by female peripheral blood cells (P < .05) and positively correlates with the frequency of female circulating regulatory T cells after LIT (P < .05). The ROC analysis showed that the intensity of CD200 expression and the Th1/Th2 ratios are the significant predictors of pregnancy establishment after pre-gestational LIT (P < .05 and P < .01, respectively). CONCLUSION Elevated CD200 expression on allogeneic lymphocytes most likely suppresses the pro-inflammatory Th1-type immunity needed for successful embryo implantation. Therefore, a personalized approach of LIT should be applied to avoid negative effects of such immunomodulation on pregnancy establishment.

Abstract
Autologous blood-derived products (ABP) are the focus of growing scientific interest and are investigated and used for multiple medical indications. ABPs hold promise thanks to their availability, ease of preparation, and low risk of adverse allogenic reaction, hypersensitivity, and contamination. Compositional analysis of ABPs reveals a diverse mixture of cellular components, cytokines and growth factors that play roles in healing processes such as tissue proliferation and angiogenesis, modulation of the local environment through chemotaxis and regulation of inflammation and the extracellular matrix, as well as several immunomodulatory actions. Thus, the administration of ABP induces supraphysiological levels of components necessary for orchestrating reparative efforts in currently difficult-to-treat medical conditions. In this article, we review the variety of autologous blood-derived products, their composition, current clinical uses, regulatory climate, and mechanisms of action.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies suggest that washing red cell concentrates (RCCs) to remove soluble mediators and/or inflammatory components, such as extracellular vesicles (EVs), may lead to better clinical outcomes. This study tested the hypothesis that non-red blood cell (RBC) generated vesicles in RCC are potent inflammatory mediators in vitro and washing RCCs can reduce these vesicles and subsequently decrease the inflammatory activity of RCCs. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Sixteen RCCs were pooled and split into four groups based on pre-wash storage time (Day 2 or 14; n = 4/group). Each group was tested 24 hours and 7 days post-wash. Characteristics of RBCs and EVs, cytokines released by monocytes, and expression of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) adhesion molecules were assessed. RESULTS All RCCs meet quality standards for hemolysis, hematocrit, and hemoglobin. Washing did not remove residual platelets from RCCs but led to a significant reduction in platelet-EV count regardless of the group. Supernatant of RCCs washed on Day 14 and stored for 24 hours had significantly lower concentrations of RBC-EVs and white blood cell EVs compared to unwashed controls. Supernatant of unwashed RCCs showed higher production of inflammatory cytokines/chemokines MCP-1, IL-8, and TNF-α, and heightened expression of HUVEC VCAM-1, which were significantly reduced by washing. Spiking washed RCC supernatants with platelet-EVs showed significant increase in IL-8, MCP-1, VCAM-1, and E-selection in groups washed on Day 14. CONCLUSIONS Platelet-EVs in RCCs are associated with pro-inflammatory activity. As washing significantly reduced RCC immunomodulatory activity, implementation of this process may improve transfusion outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is assumed that transfusion of allogeneic red cells is associated with increased peri-operative mortality and morbidity. Also assumed is the theory of transfusion-related immunomodulation. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the hypothesis that red cell transfusion specifically leads to an immunological response in surgical patients. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Departments of Orthopedic Surgery and Anaesthesia, University Hospital, Thailand. PATIENTS Low-risk, noncancer patients, aged 18 to 75 years undergoing elective major spine surgery, with and without red cell transfusion therapy. INTERVENTIONS Blood specimens were withdrawn four times (prior to surgery and on days 1, 3 and 5). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Assessment of immunocompetent cells and cytokines in transfused and nontransfused patients using flow cytometry and multiplex ELISA. RESULTS From a total of 78 patients, 61 met the requirements and were analysed in three groups: 19 with no transfusion and 26 and 16 transfused intra-operatively and on day 1 or 2, respectively. No patient experienced peri-operative haemorrhage. Postoperative infection or thrombosis occurred in 5.5% of nontransfused patients and 16.6% of transfused patients; the difference was not significant. There was no significant immunomodulatory effect of red cell transfusion: of 45 immunological parameters, only five little-relevant cytokines were significantly affected, although slightly and nonspecifically. CONCLUSION Our data indicate that red cell transfusion alone does not create an immunological response in otherwise healthy surgical patients. Our findings do not generally contradict the transfusion-related immunomodulation phenomenon, which has, however, primarily been observed in patients with an already weakened or procedure-deteriorated immune system, such as from malignant disease, significant comorbidity, extensive abdominal/thoracic surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass. TRIAL REGISTRATION The study was registered on 15 May 2014, before enrolment of the first patient, at www.ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02140216.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion is associated with poor oncologic outcomes in multiple malignancies. The effect of blood transfusion on recurrence and survival in distal cholangiocarcinoma (DCC) is not known. METHODS All patients with DCC who underwent curative-intent pancreaticoduodenectomy at 10 institutions from 2000 to 2015 were included. Primary outcomes were recurrence-free (RFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Among 314 patients with DCC, 191 (61%) underwent curative-intent pancreaticoduodenectomy. Fifty-three patients (28%) received perioperative blood transfusions, with a median of 2 units. There were no differences in baseline demographics or operative data between transfusion and no-transfusion groups. Compared with no-transfusion, patients who received a transfusion were more likely to have (+) margins (28 vs 14%; p = 0.034) and major complications (46 vs 16%; p < 0.001). Transfusion was associated with worse median RFS (19 vs 32 months; p = 0.006) and OS (15 vs 29 months; p = 0.003), which persisted on multivariable (MV) analysis for both RFS [hazard ratio (HR) 1.8; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.1-3.0; p = 0.031] and OS (HR 1.9; 95% CI 1.1-3.3; p = 0.018), after controlling for portal vein resection, estimated blood loss (EBL), grade, lymphovascular invasion (LVI), and major complications. Similarly, transfusion of ≥ 2 pRBCs was associated with lower RFS (17 vs 32 months; p < 0.001) and OS (14 vs 29 months; p < 0.001), which again persisted on MV analysis for both RFS (HR 2.6; 95% CI 1.4-4.5; p = 0.001) and OS (HR 4.0; 95% CI 2.2-7.5; p < 0.001). The RFS and OS of patients transfused 1 unit was comparable to patients who were not transfused. CONCLUSION Perioperative blood transfusion is associated with decreased RFS and OS after resection for distal cholangiocarcinoma, after accounting for known adverse pathologic factors. Volume of transfusion seems to exert an independent effect, as 1 unit was not associated with the same adverse effects as ≥ 2 units.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the immunological alterations that occur during the storage of erythrocyte suspensions which may lead to transfusion-related immunomodulation following allogeneic blood transfusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS One part of the erythrocyte suspensions obtained from donors was leucoreduced while the other part was not. The leucoreduced (LR) and non-leucoreduced (NL) erythrocyte suspensions were then further divided into three equal amounts which were stored for 0, 21 or 42 days prior to measurements, by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, of cytokine levels in their supernatants. T-helper (Th) lymphocyte subgroups and gene expression were analysed in the NL erythrocyte suspensions by flow cytometry and real-time polymerase chain reaction, respectively. Results were compared to those of storage day 0. RESULTS By day 21, the number of Th2 cells had increased significantly and the numbers of Th1, Th22 and Treg cells had decreased significantly in the NL erythrocyte suspensions. On day 42 the numbers of Th2 and Treg cells in the NL suspensions were significantly increased while the number of Th1 cells was significantly decreased. The levels of transcription factors (TBX21, GATA3, and SPI.1) were significantly decreased on days 21 and 42, and AHR, FOXP3 and RORC2 levels were significantly increased on day 42 in NL erythrocyte suspensions. The decrease in interleukin-22 and increase in transforming growth factor-β levels found in NL erythrocyte suspensions on day 21 were statistically significant. Elevated levels of interleukin-17A were found in both LR and NL erythrocyte suspensions on day 42. DISCUSSION Our results suggest that allogeneic leucocytes and cytokines may play significant roles in the development of transfusion-related immunomodulation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the effects of allogeneic and autologous transfusion on cellular immunity, humoral immunity and secretion of serum inflammatory factors and perforin during the perioperative period in patients with malignant tumors. METHODS A total of 80 patients (age: 38-69 years; body weight: 40-78 kg; ASA I - II) receiving radical operation for gastro-intestinal cancer under general anesthesia were selected. All the patients were divided into four groups based on the methods of infusion and blood transfusion: blank control group (Group C), allogeneic transfusion group (group A), hemodiluted autotransfusion Group (Group H) and hemodiluted autotransfusion + allogenic transfusion Group (A+H group). Venous blood was collected when entering into the surgery room (T0), immediately after surgery (T1) and 24h (T2), 3d (T3) and 7d (T4) after surgery, respectively. Moreover, flow cytometry was applied to assess changes of peripheral blood T cell subpopulations and NK cells. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assays were performed to determine levels of IL-2, IL-10, TNF-α and perforin. Immune turbidimetry was employed to determine the changes in serum immunoglobulin. RESULTS Both CD3+ and NK cells showed a decrease at T1 and T2 in each group, among which, in group A, CD3+ decreased significantly at T2 (P<0.05) compared with other groups, and CD3+ and NK cell reduced obviously only in group A at T3 and T4 (P<0.05). CD4+ cells and the ratio of D4+/CD8+ were decreased in groups A, C and A+H at T1 and T2 (P<0.05). No significant intra- and inter-group differences were observed in CD8+ of the four groups (P<0.05). IL-2 declined in group C at T1 and T2 (P<0.05) and showed a decrease in group A at each time point (P<0.05). Moreover, IL-2 decreased in group A + H only at T1. No significant difference was found in each group at T1 (P<0.05). More significant decrease in group C at T2, T3 and T4 compared with group A (P<0.05), and there were no significant differences among other groups (P>0.05). IL-10 increased at T1 and T2 in each group (P<0.05), in which it had an obvious increase in group A, and increase of IL-10 occurred only in group A at T3 and T4 (P<0.05). TNF-α level rose at T1 (P<0.05), no inter- and intra-group difference was found in perforin in all groups (P<0.05). Compared with the preoperation, both IgG and IgA level decreased at T1 in each group (P<0.05), and they declined only in Group A at T2 and T3 (P<0.05), and these parameters were back to the preoperative levels in other groups. No significant differences were observed between preoperative and postoperative IgG and IgA levels in each group at T4 (P>0.05). No obvious inter- and intra-group changes were found in IgM in the four groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Allogeneic transfusion during the perioperative period could obviously decrease the number of T cell subpopulations and NK cells and the secretion of stimulating cytokines and increase the secretion of inhibiting cytokines in patients with malignant tumors, thus causing a Th1/Th2 imbalance and transient decreasing in the content of plasma immune globulin. Autologous transfusion has little impact and may even bring about some improvement of postoperative immune function in patients with tumors. Therefore, cancer patients should receive active autologous transfusion during the perioperative period in place of allogeneic transfusion.

Perioperative blood transfusion affects hepatitis C virus (HCV)-specific immune responses and outcome following liver transplantation in HCV-infected patients. HPB (Oxford) 2014; 16:282-94.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Perioperative factors can affect outcomes of liver transplantation (LT) in recipients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. This study was conducted to investigate whether the immunomodulatory effects of packed red blood cells (PRBC) and platelets administered in the perioperative period might affect immune responses to HCV and thus outcomes in LT recipients. METHODS Data for a total of 257 HCV LT recipients were analysed. Data on clinical demographics including perioperative transfusion (during and within the first 24 h), serum cytokine concentration, HCV-specific interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and interleukin-17 (IL-17) producing cells, and outcomes including graft and patient survival were analysed. RESULTS Patient survival was higher in HCV LT recipients who did not receive transfusions (Group 1, n = 65) than in those who did (Group 2, n = 192). One-year patient survival was 95% in Group 1 and 88% in Group 2 (P = 0.02); 5-year survival was 77% in Group 1 and 66% in Group 2 (P = 0.05). Group 2 had an increased post-transplant viral load (P = 0.032) and increased incidence of advanced fibrosis at 1 year (P = 0.04). After LT, Group 2 showed increased IL-10, IL-17, IL-1β and IL-6, and decreased IFN-γ, and a significantly increased rate of IL-17 production against HCV antigen. Increasing donor age (P = 0.02), PRBC transfusion (P < 0.01) and platelets administration were associated with worse survival. CONCLUSIONS Transfusion had a negative impact on LT recipients with HCV. The associated early increase in pro-HCV IL-17 and IL-6, with decreased IFN-γ, suggests that transfusion may be associated with the modulation of HCV-specific responses, increased fibrosis and poor transplant outcomes.

Abstract
Objectives Transfusion of allogeneic blood is still common in orthopedic surgery. This analysis evaluates from the perspective of a German hospital the potential cost savings of Epoetin alfa (EPO) compared to predonated autologous blood transfusions or to a nobloodconservationstrategy (allogeneic blood transfusion strategy)during elective hip and knee replacement surgery. Methods Individual patients (N = 50,000) were simulated based on data from controlled trials, the German DRG institute (InEK) and various publications and entered into a stochastic model (Monte-Carlo) of three treatment arms: EPO, preoperative autologous donation and nobloodconservationstrategy. All three strategies lead to a different risk for an allogeneic blood transfusion. The model focused on the costs and events of the three different procedures. The costs were obtained from clinical trial databases, the German DRG system, patient records and medical publications: transfusion (allogeneic red blood cells: €320/unit and autologous red blood cells: €250/unit), pneumonia treatment (€5,000), and length of stay (€300/day). Probabilistic sensitivity analyses were performed to determine which factors had an influence on the model's clinical and cost outcomes. Results At acquisition costs of €200/40,000 IU EPO is cost saving compared to autologous blood donation, and cost-effective compared to a nobloodconservationstrategy. The results were most sensitive to the cost of EPO, blood units and hospital days. Conclusions EPO might become an attractive blood conservation strategy for anemic patients at reasonable costs due to the reduction in allogeneic blood transfusions, in the modeled incidence of transfusion-associated pneumonia andthe prolongedlength of stay.

Abstract
We conducted a population-based case-control study in Connecticut women to test the hypothesis that genetic variations in Th1 and Th2 cytokine genes may modify the association between blood transfusion and risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Compared with women without blood transfusion, women with a history of transfusion had an increased risk of NHL if they carried IL10RA (rs9610) GG genotype [odds ratio (OR) = 1.9, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.1-3.2] or TNF (rs1800629) AG/AA genotypes (OR = 1.6, 95% CI: 0.9-2.7). We also found women with a history of transfusion had a decreased risk of NHL if they carried IL10RA (rs9610) AG/AA genotypes (OR = 0.6, 95% CI: 0.4-0.9) or TNF (rs1800629) GG genotype (OR = 0.7, 95% CI: 0.5-1.0). A similar pattern was also observed for B-cell lymphoma but not for T-cell lymphoma. Statistically significant interactions with blood transfusion were observed for IL10RA (rs9610) (P(forinteraction) = 0.003) and TNF (rs1800629) (P(forinteraction) = 0.012) for NHL overall and IL10RA (rs9610) (P(forinteraction) = 0.001) and TNF (rs1800629) (P(forinteraction) = 0.019) for B-cell lymphoma. The results suggest that genetic polymorphisms in TNF and IL10RA genes may modify the association between blood transfusion and NHL risk.
