: Several blood biomarkers have shown a major role in predicting major adverse complications (MACs) in patients who have undergone cardiac surgery. Here, we aimed to investigate the possible role of the blood urea nitrogen (BUN) to serum albumin ratio (BAR) and the inflammatory prognostic index (IPI) in predicting major adverse complication after surgical aorta valve replacement (SAVR). : The clinical, echocardiographic, and clinical-chemistry laboratory data of 195 patients who underwent SAVR were evaluated. The post-surgical MACs (death, surgical re-exploration, myocardial infarction and cerebral ischemia) during the hospitalization were recorded. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were studied by comparing the basic clinical features, echocardiographic parameters, and patients' hematological indices between patients with or without MACs. : The mean age was 66.1 years, and 62.5% were males. Logistic regression analysis showed that the left atrium volume (LAV), BAR, and IPI as either continuous or categorical variables were independently associated with MACs. Moreover, we found a combined effect of higher LAV with a higher value of BAR or IPI. Combined higher levels of LAV and BAR increased the risk of developing MACs by 9.8 (CI 95% = 2.8-34.3, = 0.0003), while higher values of LAV and IPI increased the risk of developing MACs by 4.5. : Higher levels of BAR and IPI, alone or in combination with higher LAVs, showed an independent predictive value of MACs after SAVR. These findings strongly support the importance of evaluating easily available biomarkers of the pre-operative status of patients in order to predict adverse outcomes.
多种血液生物标志物在预测心脏手术患者的主要不良并发症(MACs)方面发挥了重要作用。在此,我们旨在研究血尿素氮(BUN)与血清白蛋白比值(BAR)以及炎症预后指数(IPI)在预测主动脉瓣置换术(SAVR)后主要不良并发症中的可能作用。
对195例行SAVR患者的临床、超声心动图和临床化学实验室数据进行评估。记录住院期间术后MACs(死亡、再次手术探查、心肌梗死和脑缺血)情况。通过比较发生或未发生MACs患者的基本临床特征、超声心动图参数和血液学指标,进行单因素和多因素逻辑回归分析。
平均年龄为66.1岁,男性占62.5%。逻辑回归分析表明,左心房容积(LAV)、BAR和IPI作为连续或分类变量均与MACs独立相关。此外,我们发现较高的LAV与较高的BAR值或IPI值存在联合效应。LAV和BAR水平均较高会使发生MACs的风险增加9.8倍(95%CI = 2.8 - 34.3,P = 0.0003),而LAV和IPI值较高则会使发生MACs的风险增加4.5倍。
较高水平的BAR和IPI,单独或与较高的LAV联合,显示出对SAVR术后MACs的独立预测价值。这些发现有力地支持了评估患者术前状态中易于获得的生物标志物以预测不良结局的重要性。
