The Relationship

Objectives: We aimed to measure changes in the levels of several miRNAs during open-heart surgery and to investigate the relationship between these changes and cardiac biomarkers. Methods: Creatine kinase-muscle band (CK-MB), cardiac troponin (cTnI) and miRNA (miR-1/21/208a/499) levels were measured during open-heart surgery in 15 patients undergoing combined mitral and aortic valve replacement. The levels of these markers were measured presurgically, 45 min after aortic clamping, 60 min after reperfusion and 24 h after surgery. Results: Significant differences were found in miR-1/208a/499 levels but not in miR-21 levels. miR-1/208a levels were unchanged until 45 min after aortic clamping, increased 60 min after reperfusion (p < 0.001) and decreased significantly 24 h after surgery (p < 0.001). The changes in miR-1/208a levels exhibited a similar pattern to those observed for cTnI and CK-MB, although the changes in miR-208a levels reflected more rapidly than those in miR-1 levels. miR-499 levels decreased after reperfusion (p < 0.001) until 24 h after surgery; these levels were negatively correlated with cTnI and CK-MB levels at all of the time points. Conclusions: A time-dependent change in miR-1/208a/499 levels occurred during open-heart surgery, and these were associated with levels of cTnI and CK-MB. These results reveal that miRNAs may be sensitive biomarkers for I/R injury during open-heart surgery.

The Mean

SummaryA prospective study in 13 patients undergoing open-heart surgery with extracorporeal circulation revealed a marked decrease of the mean one-stage prothrombin time activity from 88% to 54% (p <0.005) but lesser decreases of factors I, II, V, VII and X. This apparent discrepancy was due to the appearance of an inhibitor of the extrinsic coagulation system, termed PEC (Protein after Extracorporeal Circulation). The mean plasma PEC level rose from 0.05 U/ml pre-surgery to 0.65 U/ml post-surgery (p <0.0005), and was accompanied by the appearance of additional proteins as evidenced by disc polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of plasma fractions (p <0.0005). The observed increases of PEC, appearance of abnormal protein bands and concomitant increases of LDH and SGOT suggest that the release of an inhibitor of the coagulation system (similar or identical to PIVKA) may be due to hypoxic liver damage during extracorporeal circulation.

Blood Clotting Factors

SummaryBlood clotting investigations have been executed in 25 patients who have undergone open heart surgery with extracorporeal circulation. A description of alterations in the activity of blood clotting factors, the fibrinolytic system, prothrombin consumption and platelets during several phases of the operation is given.

Thyroid Hormone Levels

<p><b>Objective:</b> The aim of this study was to examine the effects of positive inotropic drugs, including adrenaline, dopamine, and dobutamine on thyroid hormone levels following open heart surgery.</p><p><b>Methods:</b> We analyzed free thyroid hormones (FT3 and FT4) and thyroid-stimulating hormones (TSH) in 200 consecutive patients undergoing open heart surgery. Patients were divided into 5 groups according to the inotropic drug administration as follows: Group A (n = 46) received dopamine alone; Group B (n = 40), dopamine and dobutamine; Group C (n = 36), dopamine, dobutamine, and adrenaline; Group D (n = 32), adrenaline alone; and Group E (n = 46), placebo. Procedural factors affecting thyroid hormones were recorded and included cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time, cross-clamping time, degree of hypothermia, and the duration and doses of positive inotropic drugs. Blood samples for hormone assays were collected before initiation of inotropic drug therapy (baseline) and postoperatively at 24, 72, and 120 hours after drug therapy.</p><p><b>Results:</b> FT3, FT4, and TSH levels at baseline were similar in all groups. Although there was a trend showing very slight increases in thyroid hormone levels from baseline to the 24th, 72nd, and 120th postoperative hours after drug therapy, these changes were not significant, and there were also no significant differences between the groups. There was also no significant statistical difference in CPB time, cross-clamping time, degree of hypothermia, and duration and doses of positive inotropic drugs between groups.</p><p><b>Conclusion:</b> Although thyroid hormone levels were affected by positive inotropic drug usage after open heart surgery, this effect was not significant and thyroid hormone levels remained within normal ranges.</p>
