RESUMEN
Deciphering the initial steps of SARS-CoV-2 infection, that influence COVID-19 outcomes, is challenging because animal models do not always reproduce human biological processes and in vitro systems do not recapitulate the histoarchitecture and cellular composition of respiratory tissues. To address this, we developed an innovative ex vivo model of whole human lung infection with SARS-CoV-2, leveraging a lung transplantation technique. Through single-cell RNA-seq, we identified that alveolar and monocyte-derived macrophages (AMs and MoMacs) were initial targets of the virus. Exposure of isolated lung AMs, MoMacs, classical monocytes and non-classical monocytes (ncMos) to SARS-CoV-2 variants revealed that while all subsets responded, MoMacs produced higher levels of inflammatory cytokines than AMs, and ncMos contributed the least. A Wuhan lineage appeared to be more potent than a D614G virus, in a dose-dependent manner. Amidst the ambiguity in the literature regarding the initial SARS-CoV-2 cell target, our study reveals that AMs and MoMacs are dominant primary entry points for the virus, and suggests that their responses may conduct subsequent injury, depending on their abundance, the viral strain and dose. Interfering on virus interaction with lung macrophages should be considered in prophylactic strategies.

BACKGROUND: Perioperative anaphylaxis is rare but is associated with significant morbidity. This complication has been well described in France by the GERAP (Groupe d'Etude des Réactions Anaphylactiques Périopératoires), a network focused on its study. The epidemiology of perioperative anaphylaxis is evolving, influenced by environmental factors and clinical practice. The aim of this study was to update the epidemiology of perioperative anaphylaxis in France. METHODS: This multicentre retrospective study was performed in 26 allergy clinics of the GERAP network in 2017-8. RESULTS: There were 765 patients with perioperative anaphylaxis included. Most cases were severe, with 428 (56%) reactions graded as 3 or 4 according to the Ring and Messmer classification. Skin test results were available for 676 patients, with a culprit agent identified in 471 cases (70%). Neuromuscular blocking agents were the main cause of perioperative anaphylaxis (n=281; 60%), followed by antibiotics (n=118; 25%) and patent blue dye (n=11; 2%). Cefazolin was the main antibiotic responsible for perioperative anaphylaxis (52% of antibiotic-related reactions). Suxamethonium and rocuronium were the main neuromuscular blocking agents responsible for perioperative anaphylaxis with 7.1 (6.1-8.4) and 5.6 (4.2-7.4) reactions per 100,000 vials sold, respectively, whereas cefazolin-related cases were estimated at 0.7 (0.5-0.9) reactions per 100,000 vials sold. CONCLUSIONS: Our results confirm that most commonly identified triggering agents remain neuromuscular blocking agents. Reactions to antibiotics, particularly cefazolin, are becoming increasingly frequent. The origin of sensitisation to cefazolin is unknown, as no cross-sensitisation has been described, and it should be the subject of further study. Perioperative anaphylaxis should be followed over the years and understood given the changing triggers. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04654923).

PURPOSE: Nausea and vomiting complicating chemotherapy (CINV) remain side effects despite preventive and curative treatments. We hypothesize that acupuncture (ACU), auriculotherapy (AUR), and their combination (ACU-AUR), could decrease, compared to usual treatment (UT), the intensity of acute nausea in patients already treated according to the antiemetic guidelines and presenting nausea with or without vomiting in the earlier cycle. METHODS: In this multicenter study, patients were treated just before chemotherapy according to randomization. ACU consisted of implanting bilaterally on each forearm, one semi-permanent needle at point P6. AUR consisted of implanting bilaterally on each pavilion of the ear, one semi-permanent needle at point O. All patients received systematic preventive drug treatment according to antiemetic guidelines. Main outcome was intensity of nausea at 24 h after chemotherapy using a numeric scale ranging from 0 (no nausea) to 10 (maximum symptoms). RESULTS: One hundred and fifteen patients were included. Baseline characteristics were similar between groups at inclusion. Intensity of nausea at 24 h after chemotherapy, was statistically different between the groups (covariance intergroup analysis, p = 0.005) and was significantly lower for the all-treatment groups vs UT group (p = 0.007 for AUR, p = 0.008 for ACU, and p = 0.0009 for AUR-ACU). AUR-ACU also decreased intensity of delayed nausea when compared to UT (p = 0.023). AUR, ACU and AUR-ACU had no effect on acute and delayed vomiting episodes. No serious adverse event due to the studied treatments was reported in our study. CONCLUSION: AUR or ACU reduce intensity of acute and delayed nausea in patients treated by optimal antiemetic treatment. CLINICALTRIALS: gov identifier NCT02767791, registered on May 10, 2016.

This bicentric retrospective cohort study evaluates reversal of muscle relaxation in real life achieved either by neostigmine or sugammadex in two hospitals using different types of neuromuscular monitoring (acceleromyography and kinemyography). The research question concerns compliance with recommendations. Patients who underwent an abdominal surgery under general anesthesia in the period from January 2017 through December 2020 with a neuromuscular block with rocuronium were included in the study. Data were extracted from the Centricity anesthesia information management system. In total, 2242 patients were assessed: 459 in center 1 (61 having received neostigmine and 398 sugammadex) and 1783 in center 2 (531 and 1252, respectively). Patients' characteristics differed between centers, with more high-risk patients in center 1. The mean train-of-four (TOF) ratio after supramaximal current determination (supramaximal threshold) was higher in center 1 (p < 0.001). Most patients received neostigmine while the TOF ratio was < 40% (68.6% in center 1 and 62.4% in center 2), while extubation was performed while the TOF ratio was > 90% in 61.0% in center 1 and in 32.1% in center 2 (p < 0.001). Patients received sugammadex irrespective of the number of responses to TOF before reversal, and extubation was performed while the TOF ratio was > 90% in 85.0% in center 1 and in 53.6% in center 2 (p < 0.001). No side effect was encountered. Despite guidelines for the TOF ratio before extubation, recommendations were not adequately respected and more vigilance is mandatory. The TOF test before use gave values that were 100% far apart with an underestimation with acceleromyography and an overestimation using kinemyography.
RESUMEN
Lung transplant candidates who are highly sensitized against human leucocyte antigen present an ongoing challenge with regards to finding immunologically acceptable donors. Desensitization strategies aimed at reducing preformed donor-specific antibodies have a number of limitations. Imlifidase, an IgG-degrading enzyme derived from Streptococcus pyogenes, is a novel agent that has been used to convert positive crossmatches to negative in kidney transplant candidates, allowing transplantation to occur. We present the first case of imlifidase use for antibody depletion in a highly sensitized lung transplant candidate who went on to undergo a successful bilateral lung transplant.

Lung transplantation is limited by the shortage of suitable donors. Many programs have begun to use extended criteria donors. Donors over 65 years old are rarely reported, especially for young cystic fibrosis recipients. This monocentric study was conducted for cystic fibrosis recipients from January 2005 to December 2019, comparing two cohorts according to lung donor age (<65 years or ≥65 years). The primary objective was to assess the survival rate at 3 years using a Cox multivariable model. Of the 356 lung recipients, 326 had donors under 65 years, and 30 had donors over 65 years. Donors' characteristics did not differ significantly in terms of sex, time on mechanical ventilation before retrieval, and partial pressure of arterial oxygen/fraction of inspired oxygen ratio. There were no significant differences in post-operative mechanical ventilation duration and incidence of grade 3 primary graft dysfunction between the two groups. At 1, 3, and 5 years, the percentage of predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s (p = 0.767) and survival rate did not differ between groups (p = 0.924). The use of lungs from donors over 65 years for cystic fibrosis recipients allows extension of the donor pool without compromising results. Longer follow-up is needed to assess the long-term effects of this practice.

BACKGROUND: Goal-Directed Fluid Therapy (GDFT) is recommended to decrease major postoperative complications. However, data are lacking in intra-cranial neurosurgery. METHODS: We evaluated the efficacy of a GDFT protocol in a before/after multi-centre study in patients undergoing elective intra-cranial surgery for brain tumour. Data were collected during 6 months in each period (before/after). GDFT was performed in high-risk patients: ASA score III/IV and/or preoperative Glasgow Coma Score (GCS) < 15 and/or history of brain tumour surgery and/or tumour greater size ≥ 35 mm and/or mid-line shift ≥ 3 mm and/or significant haemorrhagic risk. Major postoperative complication was a composite endpoint: re-intubation after surgery, a new onset of GCS < 15 after surgery, focal motor deficit, agitation, seizures, intra-cranial haemorrhage, stroke, intra-cranial hypertension, hospital-acquired related pneumonia, surgical site infection, cardiac arrythmia, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥ 48 h and in-hospital mortality. RESULTS: From July 2018 to January 2021, 344 patients were included in 3 centers: 171 in the before and 173 in the after (GDFT) period. Thirty-six (21.1%) patients displayed a major postoperative complication in the Before period, and 50 (28.9%) in the After period (p = 0.1). In the propensity score analysis, we matched 48 patients in each period: 9 (18.8%) patients in the After period and 14 (29.2%) patients in the Before period displayed a major perioperative complication (p = 0.2). Sixty-two (35.8%) patients received GDFT in the After period, with great heterogeneity among centers (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In our before-after study, GDFT was not associated with a decrease in postoperative major complications in elective intra-cranial neurosurgery.

PURPOSE: Post-thoracotomy pain syndrome (PTPS) and chronic postsurgical neuropathic pain (CPNP) were evaluated 4 months after thoracic surgery whether the approach was a posterolateral (PL) incision or the less invasive axillary (AX) one. METHODS: Patients, 79 in each group, undergoing a thoracotomy between July 2014 and November 2015 were analyzed 4 months after surgery in this prospective monocentric cohort study. RESULTS: More PL patients suffered PTPS (60.8% vs. 40.5%; p = 0.017) but CPNP was equally present (45.8% and 46.9% in the PL and AX groups). Patients with PTPS have more limited daily activities (p < 0.001) but a similar psychological disability (i.e., catastrophism). Patients with CPNP have an even greater limitation of daily activities (p = 0.007) and more catastrophism (p = 0.0002). Intensity of pain during mobilization of the homolateral shoulder at postoperative day 6 (OR = 1.40, CI 95% [1.13-1.75], p = 0.002); age (OR = 0.97 [0.94-1.00], p = 0.022), and presence of pain before surgery (OR = 2.22 [1.00-4.92], p = 0.049) are related to the occurrence of PTPS; while, height of hypoesthesia area on the breast line measured 6 days after surgery is the only factor related to that of CPNP (OR = 1.14 [1.01-1.30], p = 0.036). CONCLUSION: Minimally invasive surgery was associated with less frequent PTPS, but with equal risk of CPNP. Pain before surgery and its postoperative intensity are associated with PTPS. This must lead to a more aggressive care of pain patients before surgery and of a better management of postoperative pain. CPNP can be forecasted according to the early postoperative height of hypoesthesia area on the breast line.

BACKGROUND: There are limited data to detail the perioperative anesthetic management and the incidence of postoperative respiratory complications among patients requiring an anesthetic procedure while being SARS-CoV-2 positive or suspected. METHODS: An observational multicenter cohort study was performed including consecutive patients who were SARS-CoV-2 confirmed or suspected and who underwent scheduled and emergency anesthesia between March 17 and May 26, 2020. RESULTS: A total of 187 patients underwent anesthesia with SARS-CoV-2 confirmed or suspected, with ultimately 135 (72.2%) patients positive and 52 (27.8%) negative. The median SOFA score was 2 [0; 5], and the median ARISCAT score was 49 [36; 67]. The major respiratory complications rate was 48.7% (n = 91) with 40.4% (n = 21) and 51.9% (n = 70) in the SARS-CoV-2-negative and -positive groups, respectively (p = 0.21). Among both positive and negative groups, patients with a high ARISCAT risk score (> 44) had a higher risk of presenting major respiratory complications (p < 0.01 and p = 0.1, respectively). DISCUSSION: When comparing SARS-COV-2-positive and -negative patients, no significant difference was found regarding the rate of postoperative complications, while baseline characteristics strongly impact these outcomes. This finding suggests that patients should be scheduled for anesthetic procedures based on their overall risk of postoperative complication, and not just based on their SARS-CoV-2 status.

OBJECTIVE: Hypnosis can reduce pain and anxiety in surgical patients. This study aimed to demonstrate that implementing self-hypnosis in the setting of lung transplantation could improve patients' pain and quality of life. DESIGN: A randomized, single-center study. SETTING: Foch University Hospital, Suresnes, France. PARTICIPANTS: The participants were patients aged 15 years or older who needed a double-lung transplant. Patients were excluded if they participated in only 1 learning self-hypnosis session before transplantation. INTERVENTIONS: Patients were included at the time of their final evaluation before inscription on the waiting list. They were taught self-hypnosis at this time and were asked to perform it by themselves before and after transplantation, as frequently as possible. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The main outcome of the study was self-reported pain 1 month after lung transplantation. Secondary outcomes were self-reported pain, anxiety, coping, catastrophism, and self-reported quality of life evaluated at their registration, 7 days and 1 and 4 months after the transplantation. Seventy-eight patients were included, but only 28 patients in the control group and 33 in the self-hypnosis group were evaluated at the fourth postoperative month. Practice of self-hypnosis was high before transplantation (76.6%), lower after, from 32.3% in the intensive care unit to 51.6% during the last 3 months of the study. Group-time interactions were not statistically significant whatever the concerned outcome, especially pain score at 1 month (p = 0.16). CONCLUSION: Implementation of self-hypnosis is possible, but the study failed to demonstrate an improvement in patients' experience, perhaps due to the variable compliance with the technique.

BACKGROUND: Pre-formed donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) are associated with worse outcome after lung transplantation (LTx) and might limit access to LTx. A virtual crossmatch-based strategy for perioperative desensitisation protocol has been used for immunised LTx candidates since 2012 at Foch Hospital (Suresnes, France). We compared the outcome of desensitised LTx candidates with high DSA mean fluorescence intensity and those with low or no pre-formed DSAs, not desensitised. METHODS: For all consecutive LTx recipients (January 2012 to March 2018), freedom from chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) and graft survival were assessed using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox multivariate analysis. RESULTS: We compared outcomes for desensitised patients with high pre-formed DSAs (n=39) and those with no (n=216) or low pre-formed DSAs (n=66). The desensitisation protocol decreased the level of immunodominant DSA (class I/II) at 1, 3 and 6â months post-LTx (p<0.001, p<0.01 and p<0.001, respectively). Freedom from CLAD and graft survival at 3â years was similar in the desensitised group as a whole and other groups. Nevertheless, incidence of CLAD was higher with persistent high-level DSAs than cleared high-level (p=0.044) or no DSAs (p=0.014). Conversely, graft survival was better with cleared high DSAs than persistent high-level, low-level and no pre-formed DSAs (p=0.019, p=0.025 and p=0.044, respectively). On multivariate analysis, graft survival was associated with cleared high DSAs (hazard ratio 0.12, 95% CI 0.02-0.85 versus no DSAs; p=0.035) and CLAD with persistent DSAs (3.04, 1.02-9.17 versus no pre-formed DSAs; p=0.048). CONCLUSION: The desensitisation protocol in LTx recipients with high pre-formed DSAs was associated with satisfactory outcome, with cleared high pre-formed DSAs after desensitisation identified as an independent predictor of graft survival.

Background and Purpose- Guidelines regarding blood pressure (BP) management during endovascular therapy (EVT) for anterior circulation strokes are questionable since the optimal BP target is a matter of debate. To evaluate the importance of hemodynamic control during EVT, we investigated the impact of dynamic and steady BP parameters during EVT on functional outcome (part 1) and according to the collateral status (CS; part 2). Methods- We performed a post hoc analysis of the ASTER trial (Contact Aspiration Versus Stent Retriever for Successful Recanalization). BP was measured noninvasively during EVT and CS assessed on the angiographic run before EVT. We studied dynamic BP parameter using BP variability (coefficient of variation) and steady BP parameter (hypotension time defined as systolic BP <140 mm Hg and mean arterial pressure <90 mm Hg). The primary outcome was favorable outcome defined as a 3-month modified Rankin Scale score between 0 and 2. Results- Among the 381 patients of the ASTER study, 172 patients were included in part 1 and 159 in part 2. Systolic BP, diastolic BP, and mean arterial pressure variability were negatively associated with favorable outcome regardless of CS: per 10-unit increase, adjusted odds ratios were 0.45 (95% CI, 0.20-0.98), 0.37 (95% CI, 0.19-0.72), and 0.35 (95% CI, 0.16-0.76), respectively. According to CS, the hypotension time with periprocedural mean arterial pressure <90 mm Hg was negatively associated with favorable outcome in patients with poor CS (adjusted odds ratio, 0.88 [95% CI, 0.72-1.09]) but not in patients with good CS (adjusted odds ratio, 1.24 [95% CI, 0.91-1.67]; Phet=0.047). Conclusions- The CS did not modify the association between dynamic parameters and functional outcomes, but some findings suggest that the CS modifies the association between steady parameter and functional outcomes. Hypotension time according to the CS was not statistically predictive of poor outcomes but displayed a trend toward worse outcomes for patients with poor CS only.

Little is known about respecting the recommended range of bispectral index (BIS) in practice. This exploratory retrospective analysis of 138 robotic surgical patients having received total intravenous anesthesia shows that BIS was between 40 and 60 during 61.3% ± 25.2% (mean ± standard deviation [SD]) of maintenance, >60 during 3.1% ± 5.5%, and <40 during 35.7% ± 26.9%. Burst suppression was present during 17.8% ± 22.2%. Female sex is associated with increased periods of BIS <40 (P = .002) as is body mass index (BMI) <26 (P = .012). Increased age is associated with increase in burst suppression (P = .005). A larger study is required to confirm the role of patients' factors on the number of periods of low BIS.

BACKGROUND: Opioid-related adverse events are a serious problem in hospitalized patients. Little is known about patients who are likely to experience opioid-induced respiratory depression events on the general care floor and may benefit from improved monitoring and early intervention. The trial objective was to derive and validate a risk prediction tool for respiratory depression in patients receiving opioids, as detected by continuous pulse oximetry and capnography monitoring. METHODS: PRediction of Opioid-induced respiratory Depression In patients monitored by capnoGraphY (PRODIGY) was a prospective, observational trial of blinded continuous capnography and oximetry conducted at 16 sites in the United States, Europe, and Asia. Vital signs were intermittently monitored per standard of care. A total of 1335 patients receiving parenteral opioids and continuously monitored on the general care floor were included in the analysis. A respiratory depression episode was defined as respiratory rate ≤5 breaths/min (bpm), oxygen saturation ≤85%, or end-tidal carbon dioxide ≤15 or ≥60 mm Hg for ≥3 minutes; apnea episode lasting >30 seconds; or any respiratory opioid-related adverse event. A risk prediction tool was derived using a multivariable logistic regression model of 46 a priori defined risk factors with stepwise selection and was internally validated by bootstrapping. RESULTS: One or more respiratory depression episodes were detected in 614 (46%) of 1335 general care floor patients (43% male; mean age, 58 ± 14 years) continuously monitored for a median of 24 hours (interquartile range [IQR], 17-26). A multivariable respiratory depression prediction model with area under the curve of 0.740 was developed using 5 independent variables: age ≥60 (in decades), sex, opioid naivety, sleep disorders, and chronic heart failure. The PRODIGY risk prediction tool showed significant separation between patients with and without respiratory depression (P < .001) and an odds ratio of 6.07 (95% confidence interval [CI], 4.44-8.30; P < .001) between the high- and low-risk groups. Compared to patients without respiratory depression episodes, mean hospital length of stay was 3 days longer in patients with ≥1 respiratory depression episode (10.5 ± 10.8 vs 7.7 ± 7.8 days; P < .0001) identified using continuous oximetry and capnography monitoring. CONCLUSIONS: A PRODIGY risk prediction model, derived from continuous oximetry and capnography, accurately predicts respiratory depression episodes in patients receiving opioids on the general care floor. Implementation of the PRODIGY score to determine the need for continuous monitoring may be a first step to reduce the incidence and consequences of respiratory compromise in patients receiving opioids on the general care floor.

A dual-loop controller permits the automated titration of propofol and remifentanil during anesthesia; it has never been used in intensive care after cardiac surgery. The goal of this preliminary study was to determine the efficacy of this controller to provide postoperative sedation in 19 adult cardiac surgery patients with a Bispectral Index target of 50. Results are presented as numbers (percentages) or medians [25th-75th percentiles]. The sedation period lasted 139 min [89-205] during which the Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale was at - 5 and the Behavioral Pain Scale score at three points for all patients and observation times but one (82 out of 83 assessments). Sedation time in the range 40-60 for the Bispectral Index was 87% [57-95]; one patient had a period of electrical silence defined as Suppression Ratio at least > 10% for more than 60 s. The time between the end of infusions and tracheal extubation was 84 min [63-129]. The Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale was 0 [0-0], 0 [- 1 to 0], and 0 [0-0] respectively during the 3 h following extubation while the verbal numerical pain scores were 6 [4.5-7], 5 [4-6], and 2 [0-5]. Mean arterial pressure decreased during sedation requiring therapeutic interventions, mainly vascular filling in 15 (79%) patients. Automated sedation device was discontinued in two patients for hemodynamic instability. No patient had awareness of the postoperative sedation period. Dual closed-loop can provide postoperative sedation after cardiac surgery but the choice of the depth of sedation should take into account the risk of hypotension.

BACKGROUND: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most prevalent type of cancer in the world. Surgery is the only curative option. However, postoperative complications occur in up to 50% of patients and are associated with higher morbidity and mortality rates, lower health related quality of life (HRQoL) and increased expenditure in health care. The number and severity of complications are closely related to preoperative functional capacity, nutritional state, psychological state, and smoking behavior. Traditional approaches have targeted the postoperative period for rehabilitation and lifestyle changes. However, recent evidence shows that the preoperative period might be the optimal moment for intervention. This study will determine the impact of multimodal prehabilitation on patients' functional capacity and postoperative complications. METHODS/DESIGN: This international multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial will include 714 patients undergoing colorectal surgery for cancer. Patients will be allocated to the intervention group, which will receive 4 weeks of prehabilitation (group 1, prehab), or the control group, which will receive no prehabilitation (group 2, no prehab). Both groups will receive perioperative care in accordance with the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) guidelines. The primary outcomes for measurement will be functional capacity (as assessed using the six-minute walk test (6MWT)) and postoperative status determined with the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI). Secondary outcomes will include HRQoL, length of hospital stay (LOS) and a cost-effectiveness analysis. DISCUSSION: Multimodal prehabilitation is expected to enhance patients' functional capacity and to reduce postoperative complications. It may therefore result in increased survival and improved HRQoL. This is the first international multicenter study investigating multimodal prehabilitation for patients undergoing colorectal surgery for cancer.

INTRODUCTION: We evaluated the prognostic role of the arterial oxygen partial pressure/fractional inspired oxygen ratio (PaO2 /FiO2 ratio) measured at the end of double-lung transplantation (DLT). METHODS: This was a monocentric cohort study of all consecutive DLT patients between January 1, 2012, and January 1, 2016, except patients with preoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), intraoperative cardiopulmonary bypass, postoperative ECMO, large patent foramen ovale, redo transplantation during the study period, and multiorgan transplantation. RESULTS: A total of 164 patients were included in the study; 45 had a PaO2 /FiO2 ratio <200, 39 a ratio in the range 200-300, and 80 a ratio >300. The risk of being in the lower ratio group is positively related to body mass index, preoperative pulmonary hypertension, and fibrosis. It is negatively related to emergency surgery, age, and intraoperative institution of ECMO. There was a trend for more grade 3 pulmonary graft dysfunction at day 3 in the worst PaO2 /FiO2 ratio group. Mortality at 1000 days was similar for all patients and even after exclusion of patients who had required intraoperative ECMO. CONCLUSION: PaO2 /FiO2 ratio measured at the end of DLT does not forecast 1000-day mortality.

INTRODUCTION: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an efficient and innovative therapeutic tool for primary graft dysfunction (PGD). However, its effect on survival and long-term lung function is not well known. This study evaluated those parameters in patients with PGD requiring ECMO. METHOD: This single-center, retrospective study included patients who underwent LTx at our institute between January 2007 and December 2013. Patients and disease characteristics, survival, and pulmonary function tests were recorded. RESULTS: A total of 309 patients underwent LTx during the study period and 211 were included. The patients were predominantly male (53.5%), the median age was 39 years, and the primary pathology was suppurative disease (53.1%). ECMO for PGD was mandatory in 24 (11.7%) cases. Mortality at 3 months in the ECMO group was 50% (N = 12). However, long-term survival after PGD did not correlate with ECMO. Forced expiratory volume and vital capacity were significantly reduced in patients with PGD requiring ECMO, especially those with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. CONCLUSION: Veno-arterial ECMO appears to be suitable for management of PGD after LTx. Patients with PGD requiring ECMO show increased initial mortality; however, long-term survival was comparable with that of other patients in the study. Lung function does not appear to be related to PGD requiring ECMO.

Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is usually used during lung transplantation despite controversial postoperative benefits. Our group chose to administer iNO systematically during the procedure and stop at the end of surgery. This study aims to describe the features of patients who cannot be weaned from iNO, the reasons for this and its impact on postoperative outcomes. This is a monocentric cohort study comprised all consecutive patients who underwent double-lung transplantation (DLT) between 1 January 2012 and 1 January 2016. The impact of iNO dependency on postoperative outcomes was estimated using a boosted inverse probability of treatment weighting estimator. A total of 9.8% of the 173 patients included in the study could not be weaned from iNO at end-surgery stage. Body mass index (OR = 2.03, 95% CI = 1.14-3.29, P = 0.02) and intraoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (OR = 1.80, 95% CI = 1.02-2.72, P = 0.04) were risk factors for iNO dependency In the weighted population, iNO dependency was associated with an increased prevalence of grade 3 primary graft dysfunction (adjusted RR = 4.20, 95% CI = 1.75-10.09, P < 0.001) and decreased postoperative survival during the first 1500 days of follow-up (adjusted HR = 5.0, 95% CI = 1.86-13.48, P < 0.001). Inhaled nitric oxide dependency is an early marker of a poor prognosis following DLT.

Complement-mediated allograft injury, elicited by donor-specific HLA antibodies (DSA), is a defining pathophysiological characteristic of allograft damage. We aimed to study DSA-induced complement activation as a diagnostic marker of antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) and a risk stratification tool for graft loss in the context of lung transplantation (LT). We identified 38 DSA-positive patients whose serum samples were submitted for C3d deposition testing via the C3d assay. Among these 38 patients, 15 had AMR (DSAPos AMRPos ). Results were reported for each patient as the C3d ratio for each DSA, the immunodominant DSA, and the C3d ratio for all DSA present in a sample (C3d ratioSUM ). DSAPos AMRPos patients had higher C3d ratioSUM values (58.66 (-1.32 to 118.6) vs. 1.52 (0.30 to 2.74), P = 0.0016) and increased immunodominant C3d ratios (41.87 (1.72 to 82.02) vs. 0.69 (0.21 to 1.19), P = 0.001) when compared with DSAPos AMRNeg patients. Specificity and calculated positive predictive value of the immunodominant C3d ratio and BCMsum tests for AMR diagnosis were both 100% (CI = 17.4-100) in this cohort. Worst graft survival was associated with both immunodominant C3d ratio ≥4 or C3d ratioSUM ≥10 or BCMsum >7000, suggesting that the antibody composition and/or strength are the principal determinants of an HLA DSA's capacity to activate complement.
