Association between endotypes of prematurity and pharmacological closure of patent ductus arteriosus: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Endotypes leading to very and extremely preterm birth are clustered into two groups: infection/inflammation and dysfunctional placentation. We conducted a systematic review of observational studies exploring the association between these two endotypes and the pharmacological closure of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) induced by cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors. Chorioamnionitis represented the infectious-inflammatory endotype, while dysfunctional placentation proxies were hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and small for gestational age (SGA) or intrauterine growth restriction.

Methods

PubMed/Medline and Embase databases were searched. The random-effects odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated for each association. We included 30 studies (12,639 infants).

Results

Meta-analysis showed a significant association between exposure to HDP and increased rate of pharmacological closure of PDA (17 studies, OR 1.41, 95% CI 1.10-1.81, p = 0.006). In contrast, neither chorioamnionitis (13 studies, OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.47-1.18, p = 0.211) nor SGA (17 studies, OR 1.20, 95% CI 0.96-1.50, p = 0.115) were significantly associated with the response to therapy. Subgroup analyses showed that the higher response to COX inhibitors in the HDP group was significant for indomethacin (OR 1.568, 95% CI 1.147-2.141, p = 0.005) but not for ibuprofen (OR 1.107, 95% CI 0.248-4.392, p = 0.894) or for the studies using both drugs (OR 1.280, 95% CI 0.935-1.751, p = 0.124). However, meta-regression showed that this difference between the drugs was not statistically significant (p = 0.404).

Discussion/conclusion

Our data suggest that the pathologic condition that triggers prematurity may alter the response to pharmacological treatment of PDA. The DA of infants exposed to HDP appears to be more responsive to COX inhibitors.

Project description:BackgroundChorioamnionitis has recently been reported as a risk factor for various neonatal diseases, including cerebral palsy, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and necrotizing enterocolitis, but its effect on patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of chorioamnionitis on PDA.MethodsWe searched PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, and KoreaMed databases using the terms: "intrauterine infection" or "maternal infection" or "antenatal infection" or "chorioamnionitis" or "placenta inflammation" or "placenta pathology" or "neonatal outcome" or "neonatal morbidity" or "PDA or patent ductus arteriosus" or "ductus arteriosus," and "prematurity" or "very low birth weight infant." Studies were included if they were randomized controlled trials, case-control studies, or cohort studies that included information relating to chorioamnionitis and PDA.ResultsAmong 1,571 studies, a total of 23 studies (17,708 cases) were included in the meta-analysis to analyze the relationship between chorioamnionitis and PDA, except one study that only included PDA requiring surgical ligation. The association between chorioamnionitis and PDA was statistically significant (odds ratio [OR] 1.43; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.19, 1.72; P < 0.0001). In subgroup analysis, clinical chorioamnionitis was not associated with PDA (OR 1.28; 95% CI 1.00, 1.64, 1.790; P = 0.05), whereas histologic chorioamnionitis (OR 1.54; 95% CI 1.10, 2.15; P = 0.01) and chorioamnionitis diagnosed from both clinical and histologic findings (OR 1.75; 95% CI 1.07, 2.86; P = 0.03) showed significant associations with PDA. Chorioamnionitis did not increase the risk of PDA requiring surgical ligation (OR 1.23; 95% CI 0.69, 2.17; P = 0.48), and antenatal steroid use reduced the risk of PDA (OR 0.62; 95% CI 0.42, 0.90; P = 0.01) after chorioamnionitis.ConclusionsThe results from this meta-analysis support an association between maternal chorioamnionitis and PDA in offspring.

Project description:ImportanceDespite increasing emphasis on conservative management of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants, different pharmacotherapeutic interventions are used to treat those developing a hemodynamically significant PDA.ObjectivesTo estimate the relative likelihood of hemodynamically significant PDA closure with common pharmacotherapeutic interventions and to compare adverse event rates.Data sources and study selectionThe databases of MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched from inception until August 15, 2015, and updated on December 31, 2017, along with conference proceedings up to December 2017. Randomized clinical trials that enrolled preterm infants with a gestational age younger than 37 weeks treated with intravenous or oral indomethacin, ibuprofen, or acetaminophen vs each other, placebo, or no treatment for a clinically or echocardiographically diagnosed hemodynamically significant PDA.Data extraction and synthesisData were independently extracted in pairs by 6 reviewers and synthesized with Bayesian random-effects network meta-analyses.Main outcomes and measuresPrimary outcome: hemodynamically significant PDA closure; secondary: included surgical closure, mortality, necrotizing enterocolitis, and intraventricular hemorrhage.ResultsIn 68 randomized clinical trials of 4802 infants, 14 different variations of indomethacin, ibuprofen, or acetaminophen were used as treatment modalities. The overall PDA closure rate was 67.4% (2867 of 4256 infants). A high dose of oral ibuprofen was associated with a significantly higher odds of PDA closure vs a standard dose of intravenous ibuprofen (odds ratio [OR], 3.59; 95% credible interval [CrI], 1.64-8.17; absolute risk difference, 199 [95% CrI, 95-258] more per 1000 infants) and a standard dose of intravenous indomethacin (OR, 2.35 [95% CrI, 1.08-5.31]; absolute risk difference, 124 [95% CrI, 14-188] more per 1000 infants). Based on the ranking statistics, a high dose of oral ibuprofen ranked as the best pharmacotherapeutic option for PDA closure (mean surface under the cumulative ranking [SUCRA] curve, 0.89 [SD, 0.12]) and to prevent surgical PDA ligation (mean SUCRA, 0.98 [SD, 0.08]). There was no significant difference in the odds of mortality, necrotizing enterocolitis, or intraventricular hemorrhage with use of placebo or no treatment compared with any of the other treatment modalities.Conclusions and relevanceA high dose of oral ibuprofen was associated with a higher likelihood of hemodynamically significant PDA closure vs standard doses of intravenous ibuprofen or intravenous indomethacin; placebo or no treatment did not significantly change the likelihood of mortality, necrotizing enterocolitis, or intraventricular hemorrhage.Trial registrationPROSPERO Identifier: CRD42015015797.
