RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The purpose of the current study was to assess the efficacy of tranexamic acid (TXA) on reducing bleeding in cardiac surgical patients with preoperative antiplatelet therapy (APT). METHODS: Five electronic databases were searched systematically for randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) assessing the impact of intravenous TXA on post-operative bleeding on cardiac surgical patients with preoperative APT until May 2024. Primary outcome of interest was post-operative blood loss. Secondary outcomes of interest included the incidence of reoperation due to post-operative bleeding, post-operative transfusion requirements of red blood cells (RBC), fresh-frozen plasma (FFP), and platelet concentrates. Mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence interval (CI) or odds ratios (OR) with 95% CI was employed to analyze the data. Subgroup and meta-regression analyses were performed to assess the possible influence of TXA administration on reducing bleeding and transfusion requirements. RESULTS: A total of 12 RCTs with 3018 adult cardiac surgical patients (TXA group, 1510 patients; Control group, 1508 patients) were included. The current study demonstrated that TXA significantly reduced post-operative blood loss (MD = - 0.38 L, 95% CI: - 0.73 to - 0.03, P = 0.03; MD = - 0.26 L, 95% CI: - 0.28 to - 0.24, P < 0.00001; MD = - 0.37 L, 95% CI: - 0.63 to - 0.10, P = 0.007) in patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT), aspirin, or clopidogrel, respectively. Patients in TXA group had significantly lower incidence of reoperation for bleeding as compared to those in Control group. The post-operative transfusion of RBC and FFP requirements was significantly lower in TXA group than Control group. Subgroup analyses showed that studies with DAPT discontinued on the day of surgery significantly increased the risk of post-operative blood loss [(MD: - 1.23 L; 95% CI: - 1.42 to - 1.04) vs. (MD: - 0.16 L; 95% CI: - 0.27 to - 0.05); P < 0.00001 for subgroup difference] and RBC transfusion [(MD: - 3.90 units; 95% CI: - 4.75 to - 3.05) vs. (MD: - 1.03 units; 95% CI: - 1.96 to - 0.10); P < 0.00001 for subgroup difference] than those with DAPT discontinued less than 5-7 days preoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis demonstrated that TXA significantly reduced post-operative blood loss and transfusion requirements for cardiac surgical patients with preoperative APT. These potential clinical benefits may be greater in patients with aspirin and clopidogrel continued closer to the day of surgery. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42022309427.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Few studies have considered outcomes among low body mass index (BMI) cohorts undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This study aims to investigate the effects of low body weight on blood transfusion and perioperative outcomes in patients undergoing isolated CABG. METHODS: This retrospective study enrolled consecutive cases from a single-center between January 2008 and December 2018. Low body weight/underweight was defined as a BMI < 18.5 kg/m², while normal BMI was defined as 18.5 ≤ BMI < 24.0 kg/m². The primary endpoint was the perioperative red blood cell (RBC) transfusion rate. Secondary endpoints include platelet and plasma transfusion rates, transfusion volume for all blood components, hospital length of stay, and the occurrence of adverse events including prolonged mechanical ventilation, re-intubation, re-operation, acute kidney injury, and 30-day all-cause mortality. RESULTS: A total of 7,620 patients were included in this study. After 1:1 propensity score matching, 130 pairs were formed, with 61 pairs in the on-pump group and 69 pairs in the off-pump group. Baseline characteristics were comparable between the matched groups. Low body weight independently increased the risk of RBC transfusion (on-pump: OR = 3.837, 95% CI = 1.213-12.144, p = 0.022; off-pump: OR = 3.630, 95% CI = 1.875-5.313, p < 0.001). Moreover, within the on-pump group of the original cohort, BMI of < 18.5 kg/m² was independently correlated with increased risk of re-intubation (OR = 5.365, 95% CI = 1.159 to 24.833, p = 0.032), re-operation (OR = 4.650, 95% CI = 1.019 to 21.210, p = 0.047), and 30-day all-cause mortality (OR = 10.325, 95% CI = 2.011 to 53.020, p = 0.005). CONCLUSION: BMI < 18.5 kg/m² was identified as an independent risk factor for increased perioperative RBC transfusion rate in patient underwent isolated CABG with or without CPB. Only on-pump underweight patients in the original cohort exhibited an increased risk for re-intubation, re-operation, and 30-day all-cause mortality. Physicians and healthcare systems should consider these findings to improve management for this population.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Our previous showed that a blood management program in the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) department, reduced red blood cell (RBC) transfusion and complications, but assessing transfusion practice solely based on transfusion rates was insufficient. This study aimed to design a risk stratification score to predict perioperative RBC transfusion to guide targeted measures for on-pump cardiac surgery patients. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: We analyzed data from 42,435 adult cardiac patients. Eight predictors were entered into the final model including age, sex, anemia, New York Heart Association classification, body surface area, cardiac surgery history, emergency surgery, and surgery type. We then simplified the score to an integer-based system. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test, and a calibration curve were used for its performance test. The score was compared to existing scores. RESULTS: The final score included eight predictors. The AUC for the model was 0.77 (95% CI, 0.76-0.77) and 0.77 (95% CI, 0.76-0.78) in the training and test set, respectively. The calibration curves showed a good fit. The risk score was finally grouped into low-risk (score of 0-13 points), medium-risk (14-19 points), and high-risk (more than 19 points). The score had better predictive power compared to the other two existing risk scores. DISCUSSION: We developed an effective risk stratification score with eight variables to predict perioperative RBC transfusion for on-pump cardiac surgery. It assists perfusionists in proactively preparing blood conservation measures for high-risk patients before surgery.

RESUMO

Background: Selecting features related to postoperative infection following cardiac surgery was highly valuable for effective intervention. We used machine learning methods to identify critical perioperative infection-related variables after mitral valve surgery and construct a prediction model. Methods: Participants comprised 1223 patients who underwent cardiac valvular surgery at eight large centers in China. The ninety-one demographic and perioperative parameters were collected. Random forest (RF) and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) techniques were used to identify postoperative infection-related variables; the Venn diagram determined overlapping variables. The following ML methods: random forest (RF), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT), AdaBoost, Naive Bayesian (NB), Logistic Regression (LogicR), Neural Networks (nnet) and artificial neural network (ANN) were developed to construct the models. We constructed receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was calculated to evaluate model performance. Results: We identified 47 and 35 variables with RF and LASSO, respectively. Twenty-one overlapping variables were finally selected for model construction: age, weight, hospital stay, total red blood cell (RBC) and total fresh frozen plasma (FFP) transfusions, New York Heart Association (NYHA) class, preoperative creatinine, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), RBC count, platelet (PLT) count, prothrombin time, intraoperative autologous blood, total output, total input, aortic cross-clamp (ACC) time, postoperative white blood cell (WBC) count, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), PLT count, hemoglobin (Hb), and LVEF. The prediction models for infection after mitral valve surgery were established based on these variables, and they all showed excellent discrimination performance in the test set (AUC > 0.79). Conclusions: Key features selected by machine learning methods can accurately predict infection after mitral valve surgery, guiding physicians in taking appropriate preventive measures and diminishing the infection risk.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Perioperative coagulopathy is common in patients undergoing aortic surgery, increasing the risk of excessive blood loss and subsequent allogeneic transfusion. Blood conservation has become a vital part of cardiovascular surgery, but measures to protect platelets from destruction by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are still lacking. Autologous platelet concentrate (APC) may have potential benefits for intraoperative blood preservation, but its efficacy has not been studied extensively. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of APC as a blood conservation technique to reduce blood transfusion in adult aortic surgery. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is a prospective, single-centre, single-blind randomised controlled trial. A total of 344 adult patients undergoing aortic surgery with CPB will be enrolled and randomised to either the APC group or the control group with a 1:1 randomisation ratio. Patients in the APC group will receive autologous plateletpheresis before heparinisation, while those in the control group will not. The primary outcome is the perioperative packed red blood cell (pRBC) transfusion rate. Secondary endpoints include the volume of perioperative pRBC transfusion; drainage volume within 72 hours post-surgery; postoperative coagulation and platelet function; and the incidence of adverse events. Data will be analysed according to the intention-to-treat principle. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: This study was approved by the institutional review board of Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College (no. 2022-1806). All procedures included in this study will be performed in adherence to the Helsinki Declaration. The results of the trial will be published in an international peer-reviewed journal. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: Chinese Clinical Trial Register (ChiCTR2200065834).

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Postoperative hemoglobin could indicate useful information for transfusion practices. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of optimal hemoglobin level and clinical outcomes after mitral valve surgery (MVS). METHODS: This investigation was a multicenter observational cohort study including 1,518 patients undergoing mitral valve surgery from 2016 through 2018. Patients were separated into six predefined groups based on initial postoperative hemoglobin (< 7.5 g/dL, 7.5 - 8.4 g/dL, 8.5 - 9.4 g/dL, 9.5 - 10.4 g/dL, 10.5 - 11.4 g/dL, ≥ 11.5 g/dL). Multivariable regression analysis was used to adjust laboratory results and surgical features of patients to evaluate the relationships between initial hemoglobin after MVS and clinical outcomes. RESULTS: Patients with initial postoperative hemoglobin below 7.5 g/dL had longer length of stays [mean (95% confidence interval [CI]), 1.9 (1.093 - 1.367)] in comparison with the reference group of 9.5 - 10.4 g/dL. Similarly, for those with hemoglobin below 7.5 g/dL, the odds (95% CI) for secondary outcomes included myocardial infraction 11.801 (1.353 - 22.966) and thrombosis 5.113 (1.340 - 9.508). However, for clinical outcomes, there was no significant difference between the five groups with hemoglobin greater than 7.5 g/dL. CONCLUSIONS: In patients after MVS, initial postoperative hemoglobin values below 7.5 g/dL was associated with worse outcomes compared to other values. Given similar outcomes between hemoglobin more than 7.5 g/dL groups, targeting treatment to an initial postoperative hemoglobin value at the lower value may be more desirable.

RESUMO

Background: Previous studies have found atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with valvular heart disease (VHD). However, whether there is a causal relationship between these two diseases or it is just a result of bias caused by confounding factors is uncertain. This study aims to examine the potential causal association between AF and VHD by using Mendelian randomization. Methods: In order to examine the causal relationship between AF and VHD, we performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization study by collecting exposure and outcome data from genome-wide association study (GWAS) datasets. We utilized data from FinnGen project (FinnGen, 11,258 cases for VHD including rheumatic fever, 3,108 cases for non-rheumatic VHD, and 75,137 cases for participants) and European Bio-informatics Institute database (EBI, 55,114 cases for AF and 482,295 cases for participants). Inverse-variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger, and weighted median approaches were performed to estimate the causal effect. Results: The Mendelian randomization analysis indicated that AF increased the risk of VHD by all three MR methods [For VHD including rheumatic fever: IVW, odds ratio (OR) = 1.255; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.191~1.322; p = 1.23 × 10-17; Weighted median, OR = 1.305, 95% CI, 1.216~1.400, p = 1.57 × 10-13; MR-Egger, OR = 1.250, 95% CI, 1.137~1.375, p = 1.69 × 10-5; For non-rheumatic VHD: IVW, OR = 1.267; 95% CI, 1.169~1.372; p = 6.73 × 10-9; Weighted median, OR = 1.400; 95% CI, 1.232~1.591; p = 2.40 × 10-7; MR-Egger, OR = 1.308; 95% CI, 1.131~1.513; p = 5.34 × 10-4]. After the one outlier SNP was removed by heterogeneity test, the results remained the same. No horizontal pleiotropic effects were observed between AF and VHD. Conclusions: Our study provides strong evidence of a causal relationship between AF and VHD. Early intervention for AF patients may reduce the risk of developing into VHD.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Haemovigilance involves surveillance of the whole chain of blood transfusion with the aim of identifying adverse events and errors and improving outcomes for patients. The Chinese Haemovigilance Network, founded in August 2017, has witnessed a rapid development in the last three years. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Based on the 1,022 cases in 2019, we analysed the adverse reactions (ARs) by blood component, clinical outcome severity and demography of recipients in an effort to publish the first annual Chinese haemovigilance report. RESULTS: The AR rate associated with blood transfusion in 2019 was 0·2% in China. Allergic reactions and FNHTR were the two most common adverse symptoms, accounting for 97·7% of the reports. Two-thirds of the TAD, AHTR and TACO and all of the HTR and DHTR resulted in hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization. Plasma and AP were usually associated with allergic reaction (81·1%), whereas red cells more commonly cause FNHTR (68·8%) and all the AHTR, HTR, DSTR and DHTR. 84·1% of patients were aged 16 years or over, and the majority of the TAD, AHTR, TACO and HTR involved patients aged 60 and above. The ratio of serious adverse reactions (SARs) was 8·2%. Allergic reaction and FNHTR were top two (85·7%) SARs. The first case related to anti-D immunoglobulin was detected in a DHTR report. CONCLUSION: This report provides the world's first overview of transfusion-related adverse reactions in China. This report is useful for better understanding transfusion risks in China.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association of adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-induced platelet maximum amplitude (MAADP) with postoperative bleeding and blood product transfusions in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). DESIGN: This single-center observational study recruited 200 patients who underwent elective, first-time, isolated CABG with CPB. A rapid thromboelastography with platelet mapping test was conducted for all patients before the surgery. Patients were categorized by the preoperative MAADP into ≤50 mm (MAADP ≤50 group [n = 87]) and MAADP >50 mm (MAADP >50 group [n = 113]). The primary outcome was postoperative bleeding at 6 and 24 hours as measured by chest tube drainage volume. The perioperative blood product transfusions, postoperative complications, postoperative time course, and in-hospital mortality also were evaluated. SETTING: University hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Adult patients scheduled to undergo isolated primary CABG with CPB. INTERVENTIONS: None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The study included 200 patients who underwent CABG with CPB. MAADP was >50 mm in 113 (56.5%) patients (MAADP >50 group). Compared with the MAADP >50 group, the postoperative chest tube drainage volume at 6 and 24 hours was significantly greater in the patients with MAADP ≤50 mm (476.90 ± 156.36 mL v 403.36 ± 133.24 mL; p < 0.001 and 935.86 ± 318.43 mL v 667.21 ± 222.75 mL; p < 0.001, respectively). The consumption of blood products in patients with MAADP ≤50 mm was significantly more than those with MAADP >50 mm. The durations of intensive care unit stay and length of postoperative hospital stay were markedly longer in the MAADP ≤50 group than in the MAADP >50 group (p = 0.001 and p = 0.005; respectively). There were no significant differences in adverse outcomes between the 2 groups except for the postoperative atrial fibrillation, which occurred more in the MAADP ≤50 group than in the MAADP >50 group (8.05% v 1.77%; p = 0.043). MAADP (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.767; p < 0.001) was demonstrated to have significant ability to predict bleeding tendency, with a sensitivity of 76.2% and a specificity of 69.0%. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative MAADP may play a potential role in the prediction of postoperative bleeding and allogeneic blood transfusions and guide clinicians in perioperative management of patients undergoing CABG with CPB.

RESUMO

Background: This study intended to use a machine learning model to identify critical preoperative and intraoperative variables and predict the risk of several severe complications (myocardial infarction, stroke, renal failure, and hospital mortality) after cardiac valvular surgery. Study Design and Methods: A total of 1,488 patients undergoing cardiac valvular surgery in eight large tertiary hospitals in China were examined. Fifty-four perioperative variables, such as essential demographic characteristics, concomitant disease, preoperative laboratory indicators, operation type, and intraoperative information, were collected. Machine learning models were developed and validated by 10-fold cross-validation. In each fold, Recursive Feature Elimination was used to select key variables. Ten machine learning models and logistic regression were developed. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (AUROC), accuracy (ACC), Youden index, sensitivity, specificity, F1-score, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) were used to compare the prediction performance of different models. The SHapley Additive ex Planations package was applied to interpret the best machine learning model. Finally, a model was trained on the whole dataset with the merged key variables, and a web tool was created for clinicians to use. Results: In this study, 14 vital variables, namely, intraoperative total input, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative colloid bolus, Classification of New York Heart Association (NYHA) heart function, preoperative hemoglobin (Hb), preoperative platelet (PLT), age, preoperative fibrinogen (FIB), intraoperative minimum red blood cell volume (Hct), body mass index (BMI), creatinine, preoperative Hct, intraoperative minimum Hb, and intraoperative autologous blood, were finally selected. The eXtreme Gradient Boosting algorithms (XGBOOST) algorithm model presented a significantly better predictive performance (AUROC: 0.90) than the other models (ACC: 81%, Youden index: 70%, sensitivity: 89%, specificity: 81%, F1-score:0.26, PPV: 15%, and NPV: 99%). Conclusion: A model for predicting several severe complications after cardiac valvular surgery was successfully developed using a machine learning algorithm based on 14 perioperative variables, which could guide clinical physicians to take appropriate preventive measures and diminish the complications for patients at high risk.

RESUMO

The microwave absorption properties of chromite and the feasibility of microwave reduction chromite have been discussed. The results show that as the density increases, the dielectric properties of materials increase. The dielectric properties are the best (the value around 4.2) when the silica ratio is 0.5. Microwave penetration depth shows that chromite and the mixture have good wave absorption properties.

RESUMO

The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), a pandemic. Global health care now faces unprecedented challenges with widespread and rapid human-to-human transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and high morbidity and mortality with COVID-19 worldwide. Across the world, medical care is hampered by a critical shortage of not only hand sanitizers, personal protective equipment, ventilators, and hospital beds, but also impediments to the blood supply. Blood donation centers in many areas around the globe have mostly closed. Donors, practicing social distancing, some either with illness or undergoing self-quarantine, are quickly diminishing. Drastic public health initiatives have focused on containment and "flattening the curve" while invaluable resources are being depleted. In some countries, the point has been reached at which the demand for such resources, including donor blood, outstrips the supply. Questions as to the safety of blood persist. Although it does not appear very likely that the virus can be transmitted through allogeneic blood transfusion, this still remains to be fully determined. As options dwindle, we must enact regional and national shortage plans worldwide and more vitally disseminate the knowledge of and immediately implement patient blood management (PBM). PBM is an evidence-based bundle of care to optimize medical and surgical patient outcomes by clinically managing and preserving a patient's own blood. This multinational and diverse group of authors issue this "Call to Action" underscoring "The Essential Role of Patient Blood Management in the Management of Pandemics" and urging all stakeholders and providers to implement the practical and commonsense principles of PBM and its multiprofessional and multimodality approaches.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The efficacy of tranexamic acid (TXA) to reduce perioperative blood loss and allogeneic blood transfusion in cardiac surgeries has been proved in previous studies, but its adverse effects especially seizure has always been a problem of concern. This meta-analysis aims to provide information on the optimal dosage and delivery method which is effective with the least adverse outcomes. METHODS: We searched Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, MEDLINE and EMBASE for all relevant articles published before 2018/12/31. Inclusion criteria were adult patients undergoing elective heart surgeries, and only randomized control trials comparing TXA with placebo were considered. Two authors independently assessed trial quality and extracted relevant data. RESULTS: We included 49 studies with 10,591 patients into analysis. TXA significantly reduced transfusion rate (RR 0.71, 95% CI 0.65 to 0.78, P<0.00001). The overall transfusion rate was 35%(1573/4477) for patients using TXA and 49%(2190/4408) for patients in the control group. Peri-operative blood loss (MD - 246.98 ml, 95% CI - 287.89 to - 206.06 ml, P<0.00001) and re-operation rate (RR 0.62, 95% CI 0.49 to 0.79, P<0.0001) were also reduced significantly. TXA usage did not increase risk of mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, pulmonary embolism and renal dysfunction, but was associated with a significantly increase in seizure attack (RR 3.21, 95% CI 1.04 to 9.90, P = 0.04).The overall rate of seizure attack was 0.62%(21/3378) for patients using TXA and 0.15%(5/3406) for patients in the control group. In subgroup analysis, TXA was effective for both on-pump and off-pump surgeries. Topical application didn't reduce the need for transfusion requirement, while intravenous delivery no matter as bolus injection alone or bolus plus continuous infusion were effective. Intravenous high-dose TXA didn't further decrease transfusion rate compared with low-dose regimen, and increased the risk of seizure by 4.83 times. No patients in the low-dose group had seizure attack. CONCLUSIONS: TXA was effective in reducing transfusion requirement in all kinds of cardiac surgeries. Low-dose intravenous infusion was the most preferable delivery method which was as effective as high-dose regimen in reducing transfusion rate without increasing the risk of seizure.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of intravenous iron versus placebo to correct postoperative functional iron deficiency anemia in patients undergoing cardiac valvular surgery. DESIGN: A prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled study. SETTING: National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases and a university hospital. PARTICIPANTS: The study comprised 150 patients with postoperative functional iron deficiency anemia after cardiac valvular surgery. INTERVENTIONS: The patients were randomly assigned (1:1) to either the treatment (intravenous iron) group or the control (placebo) group. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The hemoglobin and ferritin concentrations and postoperative adverse events were collected and compared between the 2 groups. The hemoglobin concentration and the proportion of patients who had their anemia corrected or achieved hemoglobin increments of >20 g/L in the intravenous iron group were significantly higher than that in the placebo group at postoperative day 14 (p = 0.023, p = 0.037, and p = 0.001), whereas there was no statistical difference at postoperative day 7. The ferritin concentration was substantially higher at postoperative day 7 and postoperative day 14 in the intravenous iron group compared with the placebo group (both p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in rates of death, blood tranfusion, antibiotic upgrade, ventilator time >24 hours, postoperative hospital stay >10 days, poor wound healing, and perivalvular leakage between the 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Intravenous iron could significantly increase the hemoglobin level in patients with postoperative functional iron deficiency anemia at postoperative day 14. However, there is no difference in blood transfusion requirements or postoperative adverse outcomes between the 2 groups.

RESUMO

Platelet hyperaggregation and hypercoagulation are associated with increase of thrombogenic risk, especially in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). High activity of P2Y12 receptor is found in T2D patients, exposing such patients to a prothrombotic condition. P2Y12 is a promising target for antiplatelet, but due to P2Y12 receptor constitutive activation, the clinical practical phenomena such as "clopidogrel resistance" are commonly occurring. In this study, we investigate the role of lncRNA on platelet activation. By lncRNA array, we screened thousands of differentially expressed lncRNA in megakaryocytes from T2D patients and confirmed that lncRNA metallothionein 1 pseudogene 3 (MT1P3) was significantly upregulated in megakaryocytes from T2D patients than in healthy controls. And we further investigate the biofunction of MT1P3 on platelet activation and the regulatory mechanism on p2y12. MT1P3 was positively correlated with p2y12 mRNA levels and promoted p2y12 expression by sponging miR-126. Knockdown of MT1P3 by siRNA reduced p2y12 expression, inhibiting platelet activation and aggregation in diabetes animal model. In conclusion, our findings identify MT1P3 as a key regulator in platelet activation by increasing p2y12 expression through sponging miR-126 under T2D condition. These findings may provide a new insight for managing platelet hyperactivity-related diseases.

RESUMO

AIMS: Safety evaluations of tranexamic acid (TXA) remain sparse, especially with respect to its impact on long-term outcomes in patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We hypothesized that the effects of TXA on perioperative bleeding and allogeneic transfusion and its impact on long-term clinical outcomes of patients receiving on-pump CABG are superior to those in the control group. METHODS: In this prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, 210 patients undergoing primary and isolated on-pump CABG were randomly assigned to receive TXA or a corresponding volume of saline solution. Randomly assigned patients were followed up at 1, 3, 5, and 7 years after hospital discharge. Finally, 163 patients fulfilled the 7-year follow-up. The primary outcome was allogeneic red blood cell (RBC) transfusion. Long-term mortality and morbidity were also evaluated. RESULTS: Compared with placebo, TXA reduced the allogeneic RBC requirement in terms of the volume transfused (4.20 ± 4.06 vs 6.25 ± 4.86 units; P < 0.01), ratio exposed (52.0% vs 71.6%; P < 0.01), and blood loss volume (879.0 ± 392.5 vs 1154.0 ± 582.8 mL; P < 0.01). Except for myocardial infarction, there were no significant differences in mortality or morbidity between the two groups during the 7-year follow-up. The TXA group had a lower rate of myocardial infarction than did the placebo group (0.0% vs 4.9% at 84 months; P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS: Tranexamic acid significantly decreased postoperative bleeding and allogeneic transfusion in patients undergoing on-pump CABG. The 7-year follow-up suggested that the use of TXA was safe and might play a potential role in the prevention of long-term myocardial infarction.
