RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Ultrafiltration (UF) is a common practice during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) where it is used as a blood management strategy to reduce red blood cell (RBC) transfusion, minimize adverse effects of hemodilution, and reduce proinflammatory mediators. However, its clinical utilization has been shown to vary throughout the continents. PURPOSE: The purpose of this investigation was to assess the distribution of UF use across the United States. DATA COLLECTION: Data on UF use during cardiac surgery was obtained from a national (United States) perfusion database for adult cardiac procedures performed from January 2016 through December 2018. STUDY SAMPLE: Four geographical regions were established: Northeast (NE), South (SO), Midwest (MW) and West (WE). The primary endpoint was the use of UF with secondary endpoints UF volume, CPB and anesthesia asanguineous volumes, intraoperative allogeneic RBC transfusion, nadir hematocrit and urine output (UO). 92,859 adult cardiac cases from 191 hospitals were reviewed. RESULTS: The NE and the WE had similar usages of UF (59.9% and 59.7% respectively), which were higher than the MW and the SO (38.6% and 34.9%, p < .001). When UF was utilized, the median [IQR] volume removed was highest in the NE (1900 [1200-2800]mL), and similar in all other regions (WE 1500 [850-2400 mL, MW 1500 [900-2300]mL and SO 1500 [950-2200]mL, p < .001. Median total UO was lowest in the NE 400 [210,650]mL vs all other regions (p < .001), and remained so when indexed by patient weight and operative time (NE-0.8 [0.5, 1.3]mL/kg/hour, MW-1.1 [0.7, 1.8] mL/kg/hour, SO-1.3 [0.8, 2.0]mL/kg/hour, WE-1.1 [0.7, 1.3]mL/kg/hour, p < .001. Intraoperative RBC transfusion rate was highest in the SO (21.3%) and WE (20.5%), while similar rates seen in the NE (16.2%) and MW (17.6%), p < .001. CONCLUSIONS: Across the United States there is geographic variation on the use of UF. Further research is warranted to investigate why these practice variations exist and to better understand and determine their reasons for use.

RESUMO

One hundred twenty-nine protein kinases, selected to represent the diversity of the rice (Oryza sativa) kinome, were cloned and tested for expression in Escherichia coli. Forty of these rice kinases were purified and screened using differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) against 627 diverse kinase inhibitors, with a range of structures and activities targeting diverse human kinases. Thirty-seven active compounds were then tested for their ability to modify primary root development in Arabidopsis. Of these, 14 compounds caused a significant reduction of primary root length compared with control plants. Two of these inhibitory compounds bind to the predicted orthologue of Arabidopsis PSKR1, one of two receptors for PSK, a small sulfated peptide that positively controls root development. The reduced root length phenotype could not be rescued by the exogenous addition of the PSK peptide, suggesting that chemical treatment may inhibit both PSKR1 and its closely related receptor PSKR2. Six of the compounds acting as root growth inhibitors in Arabidopsis conferred the same effect in rice. Compound RAF265 (CHIR-265), previously shown to bind the human kinase BRAF (B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase), also binds to nine highly conserved rice kinases tested. The binding of human and rice kinases to the same compound suggests that human kinase inhibitor sets will be useful for dissecting the function of plant kinases.
