RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after on-pump cardiac surgery, and previous studies have suggested that blood glucose is associated with postoperative AKI. However, limited evidence is available regarding intraoperative glycemic thresholds in cardiac surgery. The aim of this study was to explore the association between peak intraoperative blood glucose and postoperative AKI, and determine the cut-off values for intraoperative glucose concentration associated with an increased risk of AKI. METHODS: The study was retrospective and single-centered. Adult patients in West China Hospital of Sichuan University who underwent on-pump cardiac surgery (n = 3375) were included. The primary outcome was the incidence of AKI. Multivariable logistic analysis using restricted cubic spline was performed to explore the association between intraoperative blood glucose and postoperative AKI. RESULTS: The incidence of AKI in the study population was 18.0% (607 of 3375). Patients who developed AKI had a significantly higher peak intraoperative glucose during the surgery compared to those without AKI. After adjustment for confounders, the incidence of AKI increased with peak intraoperative blood glucose (adjusted odds ratio, 1.08, 95% confidence interval 1.03, 1.12). Furthermore, it was demonstrated that the possibility of AKI was relatively ï¬at till 127.8 mg/dL (7.1 mmol/L) glucose levels which started to rapidly increase afterward. CONCLUSIONS: Increased intraoperative blood glucose was associated with an increased risk of AKI. Among patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery, avoiding a high glucose peak (i.e., below 127.8 mg/dL [7.1 mmol/L]) may reduce the risk of postoperative AKI.

PURPOSE: The debate between off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) and on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB) in diabetic patients remains. This meta-analysis aimed to investigate outcomes after OPCAB versus ONCAB for patients with diabetes. METHODS: Literature research was conducted up to December 2023 using Ovid Medline, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library. Eligible studies were observational studies with a propensity-score analysis of OPCAB versus ONCAB. The primary outcomes were early mortality and mid-term survival. The secondary outcomes were cerebrovascular accidents, reoperation for bleeding, incomplete revascularization, myocardial infarction, low cardiac output, and renal replacement therapy. RESULTS: Our research identified seven observational studies with a propensity-score analysis enrolling 13,085 patients. There was no significant difference between OPCAB and ONCAB for early mortality, mid-term survival, myocardial infarction, low cardiac output, and renal replacement therapy. OPCAB was associated with a lower risk of cerebrovascular accidents (OR 0.43; 95% CI, 0.24-0.76, P = 0.004) and reoperation for bleeding (OR 0.60; 95% CI, 0.41-0.88, P = 0.009). However, OPCAB was associated with a higher risk of incomplete revascularization (OR 2.07; 95% CI, 1.60-2.68, P < 0.00001). CONCLUSION: Among patients with diabetes, no difference in early mortality and mid-term survival was observed. However, OPCAB was associated with a lower incidence of morbidity, including cerebrovascular accidents and reoperation for bleeding.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: To study the quantitative potency of plasma albumin on cardioprotection in terms of creatinine kinase-myocardial band mass (CK-MBm) in on-pump cardiac surgery. DESIGN: Post hoc analysis of a double-blinded randomized clinical trial. SETTING: Single-center study in the Helsinki University Hospital. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 1,386 adult on-pump cardiac surgical patients. INTERVENTION: Administration of 4% albumin (nâ¯=â¯693) or Ringers acetate (nâ¯=â¯693) for cardiopulmonary bypass priming and volume replacement intraoperatively and postoperatively during the first 24 hours. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Albumin concentration was measured preoperatively and intraoperatively (after protamine administration), and CK-MBm on the first postoperative morning. Multivariate linear regression analyses were measured in the whole cohort and the Ringer group. Plasma albumin concentration did not differ between the groups preoperatively (Ringer v albumin: 38.3 ± 5.0 g/L v 38.6 ± 4.5 g/L; pâ¯=â¯0.171) but differed intraoperatively (29.5 ± 5.2 g/L v 41.5 ± 6.0 g/L; p < 0.001). Creatinine kinase-myocardial band mass was higher in the Ringer (32.0 ± 34.8 µg/L) than in the albumin group (24.3 ± 33.0 µg/L) (p < 0.001). Aortic cross-clamping time associated with CK-MBm in the whole cohort (standardized ßâ¯=â¯0.376 [95% CI 0.315-0.437], p < 0.001) and the Ringer group (ßâ¯=â¯0.363 [0.273-0.452]; p < 0.001). Albumin administration in the whole cohort (ßâ¯=â¯-0.156 [-0.201 to -0.111]; p < 0.001) and high intraoperative albumin concentration in the Ringer group (ßâ¯=â¯-0.07 [-0.140 to -0.003]; pâ¯=â¯0.04) associated with reduced CK-MBm. Compared with ischemia-induced increase in CK-MBm, albumin's potency to reduce CK-MBm was 41% in the whole cohort (ß-value ratio of -0.156/0.376) and 19% in the Ringer group (ß-value ratio of -0.07/0.363). CONCLUSION: Both endogenous and exogenous albumin appear to be cardioprotective regarding CK-MBm release in on-pump cardiac surgery.

OBJECTIVES: Compare hemodynamics between 4% albumin and Ringer's acetate. DESIGN: Exploratory analysis of the double-blind randomized ALBumin In Cardiac Surgery trial. SETTING: Single-center study in Helsinki University Hospital. PARTICIPANTS: We included 1,386 on-pump cardiac surgical patients. INTERVENTION: We used 4% albumin or Ringer's acetate administration for cardiopulmonary bypass priming, volume replacement intraoperatively and 24 hours postoperatively. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Hypotension (time-weighted average mean arterial pressure of <65 mmHg) and hyperlactatemia (time-weighted average blood lactate of >2 mmol/L) incidences were compared between trial groups in the operating room (OR), and early (0-6 hours) and late (6-24 hours) postoperatively. Associations of hypotension and hyperlactatemia with the ALBumin In Cardiac Surgery primary outcome (≥1 major adverse event [MAE]) were studied. In these time intervals, hypotension occurred in 118, 48, and 17 patients, and hyperlactatemia in 313, 131, and 83 patients. Hypotension and hyperlactatemia associated with MAE occurrence. Hypotension did not differ between the groups (albumin vs Ringer's: OR, 8.8% vs 8.5%; early postoperatively, 2.7% vs 4.2%; late postoperatively, 1.2% vs 1.3%; all p > 0.05). In the albumin group, hyperlactatemia was less frequent late postoperatively (2.9% vs 9.1%; p < 0.001), but not earlier (OR, 22.4% vs 23.6%; early postoperatively, 7.9% vs 11.0%; both p > 0.025 after Bonferroni-Holm correction). CONCLUSIONS: In on-pump cardiac surgery, hypotension and hyperlactatemia are associated with the occurrence of ≥1 MAE. Compared with Ringer's acetate, albumin did not decrease hypotension and decreased hyperlactatemia only late postoperatively. Albumin's modest hemodynamic effect is concordant with the finding of no difference in MAEs between albumin and Ringer's acetate in the ALBumin In Cardiac Surgery trial.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Elderly patients are at increased risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality after conventional on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCABG). This study was to determine whether such high-risk population would benefit from off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed on patients aged 65 years or older who underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting for the first time in Wuhan Union Hospital from January 2015 to January 2021. We used propensity score matching to adjust for differences in baseline characteristics between the ONCABG and OPCABG groups. Morbidity and mortality within 30 days after surgery were compared between the two groups. All operations were performed by experienced cardiac surgeons. RESULTS: A total of 511 patients (ONCABG 202, OPCABG 309) were included. After 1:1 matching, the baseline characteristics of the two groups were comparable (ONCABG 173, OPCABG 173). The OPCABG group had higher rate of incomplete revascularization (13.9% vs. 6.9%; P = .035) than the ONCABG group. However, OPCABG reduced the risk of postoperative renal insufficiency (15.0% vs. 30.1%; P = .001) and reoperation for bleeding (0.0% vs. 3.5%; P = .030). There were no significant differences in early postoperative mortality, myocardial infarction, stroke, and other outcomes between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: OPCABG is an alternative revascularization method for elderly patients. It reduces the risk of early postoperative renal insufficiency and reoperation for bleeding.

Reperfusion ventricular fibrillation (VF) is a common arrhythmia after cardiac surgery. Predictors of reperfusion VF and its relationships with the adverse prognosis are still unclear. This study aimed to identify a risk score model to predict reperfusion VF and its effect on in-hospital outcomes. The authors enrolled 1,024 consecutive patients undergoing cardiac surgery, and a total of 823 patients were included in the study. A novel risk score model was developed following logistic regression analysis of the predictors of reperfusion VF. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to validate this model, and the effect of VF on prognosis was later identified in multivariate or Kaplan-Meier analyses. Risk factors for reperfusion VF occurrence included weight >55 kg, preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction <50%, prior stroke, hypertension, aortic valve replacement, HTK solution, and the use of ≥3 grafts in coronary artery bypass grafting. A novel risk score model was developed using the abovementioned variables, and points were assigned to each risk factor according to its odds ratio. A high score (>6) predicted greater than 65% of patients with VF occurrence. Reperfusion VF increased the risk of in-hospital cardiovascular death (p = 0.03) and renal replacement therapy postoperatively (p = 0.022). More attention should be given to reperfusion VF due to an adverse postoperative prognosis, and the developed risk score model may predict this risk.

OBJECTIVES: To compare the changes in thoracic fluid content, PaO2/FIO2 ratio, plateau pressure, compliance, and postoperative ventilation duration in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) and on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB). DESIGN: Prospective observational study. SETTING: Tertiary-care cardiac center. PARTICIPANTS: Over an 18-month period, from December 2019 to May 2021, 111 patients who underwent CAB grafting were enrolled. Group I constituted OPCAB patients and Group II the ONCAB patients. INTERVENTIONS: After induction, the authors measured thoracic fluid content (TFC), pulmonary compliance, airway pressures, and the PaO2/FIO2 ratio before skin incision (T1) and after skin closure (T2). The input, output, as well as the duration of postoperative ventilation, also were recorded. RESULTS: At T2, the ONCAB group had a significantly higher change in TFC than the OPCAB group (5.4 ± 1.86 kOhm-1v 4.32 ± 1.84 kOhm-1, p = 0.012). The fluid balance was significantly higher in the OPCAB group compared with the ONCAB group (2,159.21 ± 108.73 mL v 1,792.50 ± 151.88 mL, p = 0.0001). The decrease in PaO2/FIO2 ratio was significantly lower in the OPCAB group compared with the ONCAB group (-71.34 ± 23.42 v -123.65 ± 36.81, p = 0.000). The increase in plateau pressure, decrease in compliance, and postoperative ventilation period were significantly higher in the patients who underwent ONCAB than the patients who underwent OPCAB (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION: The change in TFC was greater in the ONCAB group, despite the fact that the fluid balance was higher in the OPCAB group. A higher TFC in ONCAB led to lower PaO2/FIO2 ratio, lower compliance, higher plateau pressures, and longer postoperative ventilation.

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery with two methods (on-pump or off-pump) can be used to rescue individuals with severe coronary artery disease (CAD). Each method might cause an inflammatory response, which can lead to some complications. The aim of this study was to compare the changes in serum concentrations of IFN-γ, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-1ß, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, VEGF, MCP-1, and epidermal growth factor between the two CABG surgery methods. Forty-eight patients (22 = on-pump, 26 = off-pump) who underwent on-pump or off-pump CABG surgery were enrolled in this study. Serum cytokines levels were measured in two blood samples, the first sample was taken from each patient in the morning of the day of surgery after a 12-hr fasting and the second sample on the first postoperative day at 24-hr after surgery. In baseline, comparisons between the two groups of on-pump/off-pump surgery did not show any significant difference in demographic data, anthropometric parameters, lipid profile indices, and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels (p > .05). There was a significant difference between the serum levels of IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), IFN-γ, and MCP-1 in patients with on-pump surgery and a significant increase in serum IL-6 (p < .001), IL8 (p < .05), VEGF (p < .001), and IFN-γ (p < .01) levels in patients with off-pump surgery in post-operation stage compared to pre-operation. Cardiopulmonary pump in patients under CABG surgery can activate systemic inflammation and the changes of serum cytokines levels in off-pump CABG were lower compared with on-pump CABG.

BACKGROUND: Silent brain infarction (SBI) happens at a considerable rate after on-pump cardiac surgery. Though termed silent, SBI is related to unfavorable clinical outcomes including higher incidence of future stroke and neurocognitive impairment in the general population. The risk factors of SBI have not been fully identified in both individual studies and several meta-analyses addressing the topic. In this meta-analysis, we aimed to conduct meta-regression analysis for the first time to explore risk factors for SBI after on-pump cardiac surgery. METHODS: This meta-analysis was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Medline, Embase, Central, Web of Science, and Wiley databases were searched for relevant studies. Preoperative patient baseline characteristics and intraoperative surgical parameters were extracted from included studies. For meta-regression, a P value of less than 0.1 was considered statistically significant in both univariable and multivariable analyses. RESULTS: Twenty-nine studies with 1478 patients were included in this meta-analysis. The summarized SBI rate after on-pump cardiac surgery was 37% (95% CI 0.27-0.47, P < 0.0001). Heterogeneity between studies was significant (I2 = 94.9%, P < 0.0001). In multivariable meta-regression, we found that age (coefficient 0.014, 95% CI 0.001-0.029, P = 0.043), diabetes (coefficient 0.006, 95% CI - 0.001 to 0.013, P = 0.075), and proportion of CABG (coefficient - 0.001, 95% CI - 0.003 to 0.0003, P = 0.096) were significantly associated with SBI incidence. CONCLUSION: From the meta-regression, we concluded that advanced age and diabetes were related to increased SBI incidence after on-pump cardiac surgery, while CABG procedure alone was associated with less SBI onset. Studies with more accurate diagnoses of SBI are required to add more conclusive evidence to the field.

BACKGROUND: Redo coronary artery bypass grafting (redo CABG) is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. The aim of this study was to systematically evaluate the evidence comparing the outcomes of off-pump with on-pump redo CABG. METHODS: Studies were systematically searched and identified using PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, and the International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP) by two researchers independently. The primary outcome was 30-day mortality, and the secondary outcomes were in-hospital mortality, post-operative complications, completeness of revascularization, blood transfusion rate, duration of mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit and hospital stays. RESULTS: The 21 studies including 4,889 patients were enrolled in our meta-analysis. Compared with on-pump, the off-pump technique was associated with significantly reduced 30-day mortality (odds ratio [OR] = 0.43, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.26-0.72, p = 0.001). Moreover, a notably decreased in-hospital mortality (OR = 0.55, 95% CI = 0.39-0.76, p = 0.0004) and incidence of post-operative new-onset atrial fibrillation, myocardial infarction, acute kidney injury, low cardiac output state, blood transfusion rate (OR = 0.46, 95% CI = 0.35-0.60, p < 0.00001; OR = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.38-0.78, p = 0.0007; OR = 0.51, 95% CI = 0.37-0.70, p < 0.0001; OR = 0.31, 95% CI = 0.20-0.47, p < 0.00001; OR = 0.29, 95% CI = 0.14-0.61, p = 0.001) and significantly shortened duration of mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit and hospital stays (mean difference [MD] = -8.21 h, 95% CI = -11.74 to -4.68, p < 0.00001; MD = -0.77 d, 95% CI = -0.81 to -0.73, p < 0.00001; MD = -2.24 d, 95% CI = -3.17 to -1.32, p < 0.00001) could be observed when comparing the outcomes of off-pump with on-pump redo CABG. There was nonsignificant difference between off-pump and on-pump redo CABG in completeness of revascularization. CONCLUSION: In patients undergoing redo CABG surgery, the off-pump technique was associated with decreased mortality, less post-operative complications when compared to on-pump.

BACKGROUND: Redo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) can be performed with either the off-pump (OPCAB) or the on-pump (ONCAB) technique. METHOD: Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA), this meta-analysis compared the safety and efficacy of OPCAB versus ONCAB redo CABG. RESULTS: Twenty-three (23) eligible studies were included (OPCAB, n=2,085; ONCAB, n=3,245). Off-pump CABG significantly reduced the risk of perioperative death (defined as in-hospital or 30-day death rate), myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, and acute kidney injury. The two treatment approaches were comparable regarding 30-day stroke and late all-cause mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Off-pump redo CABG resulted in lower perioperative death and periprocedural complication rates. No difference was observed in perioperative stroke rates and long-term survival between the two techniques.

BACKGROUND: Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) negates the requirement for extracorporeal circulation used with the traditional on-pump approach. However, off-pump CABG is technically more challenging and may theoretically lead to less complete revascularisation. Recent data suggests a prognostic benefit for traditional on-pump CABG, but the mechanism for this remains unclear. We hypothesised that the inferior outcomes with off-pump CABG could be driven by the need for repeat revascularisation, with this benefit only becoming clear at long-term follow-up. We therefore evaluated short, medium and long-term outcomes of patients undergoing revascularisation with on vs. off-pump CABG. METHODS: Electronic databases were searched to identify suitable randomised controlled trials enrolling ≥100 patients in each arm. Clinical outcomes were extracted at 30-days, 12-months or >4years. The primary outcome was long-term all-cause death, while secondary outcomes included 30-day, 12-month and >4-year cardiac death, stroke, myocardial infarction or revascularisation. RESULTS: Thirteen (13) studies comprising 13,234 patients were included. Off-pump CABG was associated with an increased risk of all-cause death (Odds Ratio [OR] 1.18, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.02-1.32, p=0.01) and repeat bypass surgery (OR 2.57, 95%CI 1.23-5.39, p=0.01) at long-term follow-up. A significant, increased requirement for revascularisation in off-pump was seen at 12-month follow-up (OR 1.59, 95%CI 1.09-2.33, p=0.02). No differences were noted between groups at 30-days, 12-months and >4years for myocardial infarction or stroke. CONCLUSIONS: Off-pump CABG is associated with significantly higher rates of all-cause mortality rate at long-term follow-up. These outcomes demonstrate a temporal relationship that may be driven by a greater requirement for repeat revascularisation at 1- and 5-year follow-up. STUDY REGISTRATION: CRD42018102019 (PROSPERO).

OBJECTIVES: Cardiac surgery is characterized by attenuation of microcirculatory perfusion. Dexmedetomidine has been proved to attenuate the microcirculatory derangements evoked by experimental sepsis. The authors investigated the effects of dexmedetomidine infusion on sublingual microcirculation in patients undergoing on-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized blinded study. SETTINGS: Tertiary university hospital. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 70 adults undergoing elective on-pump CABG surgery. INTERVENTION: After a standard general anesthesia, participants were allocated randomly to receive either propofol continuous intravenous infusion, 50 to 70 µg/kg/min, or propofol infusion, 50 to 70 µg/kg/min plus dexmedetomidine infusion, 0.5 µg/kg/h, during cardiopulmonary bypass. Microcirculation was studied with side-stream dark field imaging at 3 times: immediately before starting bypass (T0), 30 minutes after initiation of bypass (T1), and 30 minutes after weaning from bypass (T2). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Microvascular flow index was significantly higher in the dexmedetomidine group at T2 compared to the control group (2.20 ± 0.29 and 1.47 ± 0.30, respectively; pâ¯=â¯0.001). The perfused vessel density was significantly higher in the dexmedetomidine group at T2 compared to the control group (6.1 [3-8.9] mm/mm² and 3.3 [2.2-4.3] mm/mm², respectively; pâ¯=â¯0.01). The total vascular density was significantly higher in the dexmedetomidine group compared to the control group at T1 and T2 (9.9 [7.8-12.6] mm/mm² v 7.4 [6.1-9] mm/mm², pâ¯=â¯0.005; and 9.27 ± 2.27 mm/mm² v 7.24 ± 1.66 mm/mm², pâ¯=â¯0.003, respectively). CONCLUSION: This trial demonstrated that dexmedetomidine infusion improved sublingual microcirculation indices in patients undergoing on-pump CABG surgery.

INTRODUCTION: Cardiopulmonary bypass surgery is accompanied by an inflammatory response and pulmonary dysfunction that renders patients vulnerable to postoperative complications. The majority of studies investigating the inflammatory response in cardiopulmonary bypass focus on cytokine measurements. This study investigated the early response of peripheral blood cell types and early changes in lung tissue in on-pump versus off-pump cardiopulmonary bypass surgery. METHODS: Landrace pigs were assigned to the following groups (n = 6 per group): 1. off-pump cardiopulmonary bypass, 2. conventional cardiopulmonary bypass, 3. heparin-coated cardiopulmonary bypass, 4. surface-reduced cardiopulmonary bypass, and 5. surface-reduced cardiopulmonary bypass plus lung perfusion. Surgery was performed under mild hyperthermia (32°C), with 90-minute ischemia and 180-minute reperfusion. Histological and flow cytometric analyses were performed. RESULTS: Lung water content increased during reperfusion in heparin-coated (84.63 ± 2.99%) compared to conventional cardiopulmonary bypass (76.33 ± 4.56%, p = 0.04). Alveolar septal thickness increased during ischemia at heparin-coated (p < 0.01) and surface-reduced cardiopulmonary bypass plus lung perfusion (p = 0.05). Tumor necrosis factor expression increased significantly (p < 0.01) in peribronchial, perivascular, and peripheral lung areas in all on-pump groups, but not in off-pump cardiopulmonary bypass. The usage of heparin-coated cardiopulmonary bypass led to increased percentages of CD3+CD4+ (p = 0.03) and CD3+CD8+ (p = 0.01) T cells compared to an uncoated device. Natural killer and mature B lymphocytes decreased at conventional and surface-reduced cardiopulmonary bypass plus lung perfusion. Activated granulocytes and macrophages increased at conventional cardiopulmonary bypass and heparin-coated cardiopulmonary bypass. CONCLUSION: Off-pump cardiopulmonary bypass induces less immunological response and lung injury than on-pump surgery. The reduction of cardiopulmonary bypass surface reduces the inflammatory immune response induced by cardiopulmonary bypass. Lung perfusion of surface-reduced cardiopulmonary bypass diminished the extravasation caused by surface reduction of the cardiopulmonary bypass.

BACKGROUND: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) performed early after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) carries a high risk of mortality. By avoiding cardioplegic arrest and aortic cross-clamping, on-pump beating heart CABG (ONBEAT) may benefit patients requiring urgent or emergency revascularisation in the setting of AMI. We evaluated the early and long-term outcomes of ONBEAT versus conventional CABG (ONSTOP) utilising the ANZSCTS National Cardiac Surgery Database. METHODS: Between 2001 and 2015, 5,851 patients underwent non-elective on-pump CABG within 7 days of AMI. Of these, 77 patients (1.3%) underwent ONBEAT and 5774 (98.7%) underwent ONSTOP surgery. Propensity-score matching (with a 1:2 matching ratio) was performed for risk adjustment. Survival data were obtained from the National Death Index. RESULTS: Before matching, the unadjusted 30-day mortality was ONBEAT: 9/77 (11.7%) vs. ONSTOP: 256/5,774 (4.4%), p<0.001. Preoperative factors independently associated with the ONBEAT were: septuagenarian age, peripheral vascular disease, redo surgery, cardiogenic shock, emergency surgery and single-vessel disease. After propensity-score matching, 30-day mortality was similar (ONBEAT: 9/77 (11.7%) vs. ONSTOP: 16/154 (10.4%), p=0.85), as was the rate of major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (ONBEAT: 17/77 (22.1%) vs. ONSTOP: 38/154 (24.7%), p=0.84). ONBEAT patients received fewer distal anastomoses and were more likely to have incomplete revascularisation (ONBEAT: 15/77 (19.5%) vs. ONSTOP: 15/154, (9.7%), p=0.03). Despite this, 12-year survival was comparable (ONBEAT: 64.8% (95% CI 39.4-82.4%) vs. ONSTOP: 63.6% (95% CI 50.5, 74.3%), p=0.89). CONCLUSIONS: ONBEAT can be performed safely in high-risk patients requiring CABG early after AMI with similar short and long-term survival compared to ONSTOP.

OBJECTIVES: Outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) are worse in women than in men. This study aims to investigate whether off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery improves the outcomes in women by comparing different outcome measures in both genders. METHODS: Patients who underwent isolated CABG, either on-pump (ONCAB) or OPCAB, between January 1998 and June 2017 were included. Primary endpoints were 30-day and 120-day mortality. Logistic regression models were constructed to evaluate the effect of the CABG technique on important outcomes such as mortality and the need for blood transfusion. RESULTS: The data of 17,052 patients were analysed, 3,684 of whom were women (414 OPCAB) and 13,368 men (1,483 OPCAB). The mean number of grafts was lower in the OPCAB group of both genders (pâ¯< 0.001). Postoperatively, both men and women undergoing OPCAB surgery received fewer red blood cell transfusions (pâ¯< 0.001) and had higher postoperative haemoglobin levels (pâ¯< 0.001) than those undergoing ONCAB. Early mortality occurred less frequently after OPCAB surgery in both genders, although the difference was not significant. However, 120-day mortality was significantly lower after OPCAB surgery in women, even after correction for preoperative risk factors [odds ratio (OR)â¯= 0.356, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.144-0.882, pâ¯= 0.026]. The difference in 120-day mortality was not significant in men (ORâ¯= 0.787, 95% CI 0.498-1.246, pâ¯= 0.307). CONCLUSIONS: Women undergoing CABG benefit more from OPCAB surgery than from ONCAB surgery in terms of 120-day mortality. This difference was not found in men in our patient population.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have worse adverse cardiovascular outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). However, the adverse cardiovascular outcomes between off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) versus on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB) in these patients have been a subject of debate. METHODS: We undertook a comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library database to identify all relevant studies comparing techniques between OPCAB and ONCAB in CKD patients. We pooled the odds ratios (ORs) and hazard ratios (HRs) from individual studies and conducted heterogeneity, quality assessment, and publication bias analyses. RESULTS: This meta-analysis includes 17 studies with 201,889 patients. In CKD patients, OPCAB was associated with significantly lower early mortality as compared to ONCAB (OR 0.88; 95% CI 0.82-0.93; p < 0.0001). OPCAB was associated with decreased risk of atrial fibrillation (OR 0.57; 95% CI 0.34-0.97; p = 0.04), cerebrovascular accident (OR 0.46; 95% CI 0.22-0.95; p = 0.04), blood transfusion (OR 0.20; 95% CI 0.08-0.49; p = 0.0005), pneumonia, prolonged ventilation, and shorter hospital stays. No difference was found regarding long-term survival (HR 1.08; 95% CI 0.86-1.36; p = 0.51) or myocardial infarction (OR 0.65; 95% CI 0.30-1.38; p = 0.26). CONCLUSIONS: Compared with ONCAB, OPCAB is associated with superior postoperative morbidity and the early mortality in CKD patients. Long-term survival is comparable between the two surgical revascularizations.

OBJECTIVES: We sought to determine whether off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) increases long-term mortality, by performing a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of off-pump versus on-pump CABG with ≥5-year follow-up. METHODS: MEDLINE and EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched through July 2018. Hazard, risk, or odds ratios (HRs, RRs, or ORs) of long-term (≥5-year) mortality for off-pump versus on-pump CABG were extracted from each individual trial. Study-specific estimates were combined using inverse variance-weighted averages of logarithmic HRs in the random-effects model. RESULTS: Our search identified eight medium- to large-size RCTs at low risk of bias with long-term follow-up of off-pump versus on-pump CABG enrolling a total of 8780 patients. Combining four RCTs reporting actual HRs generated a statistically significant result favoring on-pump CABG (HR, 1.21; P = 0.02). A pooled analysis of all eight RCTs demonstrated a statistically significant increase in mortality with off-pump CABG (HR/RR, 1.19; P = 0.01). There was no evidence of significant publication bias in the meta-analysis of all eight RCTs. In a sensitivity analysis, extracting RRs or ORs from all eight RCTs and pooling them demonstrated a statistically significant increase in mortality with off-pump CABG (RR, 1.17; P = 0.01; OR, 1.20; P = 0.007). Eliminating 2 RRs and combining six HRs still generated a statistically significant result favoring on-pump CABG (HR, 1.19; P = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Off-pump CABG increases long-term (≥5-year) mortality compared with on-pump CABG.

BACKGROUND: The reply of question of "which coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) technique is superior in elderly patients, off-pump or on-pump CABG surgery?" is controversial. We aimed to compare the early clinical outcomes in elderly patients undergoing off-pump and on-pump CABG. METHODS: From January 2009 to January 2015, 344 elderly patients (aged 70 or older) underwent off-pump (n = 137) or on-pump (n = 207) CABG. Patients' medical records were retrospectively reviewed, and their baseline preoperative characteristics, operative data and postoperative outcomes were analyzed, thereby a comparison of early outcomes between off-pump and on-pump patients was performed. RESULTS: Mean age of patients was 74.4 ± 3.8 years. Both groups were statistically similar in terms of baseline preoperative characteristics. Number of distal bypass was significantly lower in off-pump group than in on-pump group. Postoperative length of intensive care unit and hospital stay were similar between two groups. Amounts of transfused blood products were significantly lower in off-pump CABG group. There were no significant differences in terms of postoperative complications and mortality between two groups. CONCLUSIONS: Our results did not reveal a significant benefit of either surgical technique with respect to early-term clinical outcomes in elderly CABG patients. Further investigations are needed to determine whether off-pump CABG is superior than on-pump CABG in elderly patients.
