A new hematologic predictor of major adverse events after cardiac surgery: red cell distribution width to lymphocyte ratio.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The perioperative risk factors that cause severe morbidity and prolongation of postoperative hospital stay after cardiac surgery should be determined. Various scores have been used to predict morbidity and mortality. Preoperative blood counts are considered potential biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress. Inflammatory and immune imbalances may have a significant impact on postoperative adverse events. The present study aimed to investigate the association and potential predictive properties of red cell distribution width/ lymphocyte ratio (RLR) for major adverse events in adult patients who underwent coronary surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.

Methods

After approval from the ethics committee, pre- and post-operative data of 700 patients were obtained from the electronic database of the hospital, intra- and post-operative anesthesia, and intensive care unit follow-up charts. We performed a stepwise multiple logistic regression analysis to investigate the association of RLR with major adverse events in adult patients who underwent coronary surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.

Results

Among 700 patients, 47 (6.7%) had major adverse events after surgery. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (odds ratio [OR], 1.08; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.03-1.12; P < 0.001), mean platelet volume (OR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.07-2.06; P = 0.017), and RLR (OR, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.02-1.43; P = 0.026) were significantly associated with major adverse events.

Conclusions

RLR indicates the balance between inflammatory and immune responses. Therefore, it can be used to predict adverse events following coronary surgery.

Project description:BackgroundLung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounting for 85% of all lung cancer cases. Inflammation has been proven to be one of the characteristics of malignant tumors. Chronic inflammatory response mediated by cytokines in the tumor microenvironment is an important factor in tumorigenesis. The purpose of this study was to observe and evaluate the value of red blood cell distribution width (RDW), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and hemoglobin-to-red blood cell distribution width ratio (HRR) in the progression of NSCLC.MethodsA total of 245 patients with NSCLC, 97 patients with benign pulmonary nodules, and 94 healthy volunteers were included in this study. Factors, such as age, gender, smoking history, histological type, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, TNM stage, and differentiation degree were statistically analyzed. The correlation of RDW, NLR, and HRR of patients with NSCLC with other clinical experimental parameters were also analyzed. Then, the diagnostic value of RDW, NLR, and HRR in the progression of NSCLC was evaluated.ResultsRDW, NLR, and HRR could be used to distinguish patients with NSCLC from healthy controls (p < 0.05). In addition, only the RDW in the NSCLC group with III-IV stage was significantly different from that in the benign pulmonary nodules group (p = 0.033), while NLR and HRR could significantly distinguish patients with NSCLC and benign pulmonary nodules (p < 0.001). RDW and NLR were positively correlated with NSCLC stage, whereas HRR was negatively correlated with NSCLC stage. RDW, NLR, and HRR were also significantly associated with the differentiation degree of NSCLC (p < 0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the combination of RDW with NLR, HRR, and CEA could show significantly higher diagnostic value than any one marker alone (AUC = 0.925, 95% CI: 0.897-0.954, and sensitivity and specificity of 79.60% and 93.60%, respectively).ConclusionRDW, NLR, and HRR can be utilized as simple and effective biomarkers for the diagnosis and evaluation of NSCLC progression.

Project description:BackgroundProstate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common malignant tumors in men, and laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP) is commonly used to treat localized and advanced PCa. Positive surgical margin (PSM) is one of the most frequent problems faced by surgeons.AimsThis study aimed to explore the value of the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and red blood cell distribution width (RDW) in predicting PSM after LRP.Methods and resultsThree hundred and twenty patients with PCa were admitted and underwent LRP in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from January 2017 to June 2023. Patients were randomly divided into a training set (225 cases) and a validation set (95 cases) in a 7:3 ratio. NLR, PLR, and RDW were significantly higher in the PSM group than in the negative surgical margins (NSM) group. In addition, the NLR, PLR, and RDW values correlated with clinical T stage, Gleason score, and seminal vesicle invasion in the PSM group. In training set, ROC curve analysis revealed that the optimal cutoff values of NLR, PLR, and RDW for predicting postoperative PSM in PCa were 2.31, 115.40, and 12.85%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed NLR and RDW were the clinical independent predictors. The area under the curve (AUC, 0.770, 95% CI 0.709-0.831) for postoperative PSM was the highest when a combination of the three parameters was used, with sensitivity and specificity of 62.5% and 85.2%, respectively. In validation set, the AUC values for NLR, PLR, RDW and the three markers combined were 0.708, 0.675, 0.723, and 0.780, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that in the PSM group, NLR was positively correlated with PLR and RDW, and PLR was positively correlated with RDW. By contrast, in the NSM group, a positive association was only found between NLR and PLR.ConclusionsHigher preoperative NLR, PLR, and RDW values were associated with postoperative PSM. Additionally, the three markers combined may be useful to predict PSM.

Project description:Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common morbidity complicating preterm birth. Red blood cell distribution width (RDW), a measure of the variation red blood cell size, could reflect oxidative stress and chronic inflammation in many diseases such as cardiovascular, pulmonary, and other diseases. The objectives of the present study were to evaluate perinatal factors affecting RDW and to validate whether RDW could be a potential biomarker for BPD. A total of 176 preterm infants born at < 30 weeks were included in this study. They were categorized into BPD (n = 85) and non-BPD (n = 91) infants. RDW at birth and 14 days and 28 days of life (DOL 14, DOL 28) were measured. Clinical data were obtained from all subjects at Fukushima Medical University (Fukushima, Japan). The mean RDW at birth, DOL 14 and DOL 28 were 16.1%, 18.6%, 20.1%, respectively. Small for gestational age (SGA), chorioamnionitis (CAM), hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), gestational age and birth weight were significantly associated with RDW at birth. SGA, BPD and red blood cell (RBC) transfusion before DOL 14 were associated with RDW at DOL 14. BPD and RBC transfusion before DOL 14 were associated with RDW at DOL 28. Compared with non-BPD infants, mean RDW at birth DOL 14 (21.1% vs. 17.6%, P < 0.001) and DOL 28 (22.2% vs. 18.2%, P < 0.001) were significantly higher in BPD infants. Multivariate analysis revealed that RDW at DOL 28 was significantly higher in BPD infants (P = 0.001, odds ratio 1.63; 95% CI 1.22-2.19). Receiver operating characteristic analysis for RDW at DOL 28 in infants with and without BPD yielded an area under the curve of 0.87 (95% CI 0.78-0.91, P < 0.001). RDW at DOL 28 with mild BPD (18.3% vs. 21.2%, P < 0.001), moderate BPD (18.3% vs. 21.2%, P < 0.001), and severe BPD (18.3% vs. 23.9%, P < 0.001) were significantly higher than those with non-BPD, respectively. Furthermore, there are significant differences of RDW at DOL 28 between mild, moderate, and severe BPD. In summary, we conclude that RDW at DOL 28 could serve as a biomarker for predicting BPD and its severity. The mechanism by which RDW at DOL 28 is associated with the pathogenesis of BPD needs further elucidation.
