neutrophil elastase inhibitor following liver resection: a matched cohort study
نویسندگان
چکیده
background sivelestat is a neutrophil elastase inhibitor (nei) with positive impact on the respiratory complications in thoracic surgery. based on the findings of a recent study, nei may have a good response for avoiding ischemia reperfusion injury in liver resection. conclusions intravenous nei administration had positive impact on the postoperative inflammatory response and oxygenation while it did not affect either coagulation or the liver function, as well as severe grade complications following resection. objectives the current study aimed to examine the impact of nei on the postoperative outcomes after liver resection. patients and methods the data were collected from 374 consecutive patients scheduled to undergo liver resection. seven perioperative variables were matched on the basis of the patients’ background. then, the nei (n = 61) and control (n = 61) groups were compared. nei was administered at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg/h for three days from the postoperative day 0 (pod0). the liver function, coagulation activity, inflammatory response, respiratory complications, and overall complications were compared. results the levels of serum interleukin-6 (nei group: 113 pg/ml [26.9 - 522.0] vs. control group: 174 [28.6 - 1040.6], p < 0.01) and c-reactive protein (crp) (2.9 iu/l [range: 0.1 - 8.6] vs. 4.11 [0.3 - 13.8], p = 0.01) on the first postoperative day (pod1) and the alveolar-arterial oxygen tension difference (32.3 torr [-28.6 - 132.3] vs. 46.6 [-11.2 - 251.6], p = 0.04) on the third postoperative day (pod3) were significantly lower in the nei group than the control group. the rate of pleural effusion was significantly lower in the nei group compared to that of the control group [13 patients (21.3%) vs. 23 (37.7%), p = 0.04]. however, the coagulation activities (p = 0.68), liver function (p = 0.69), non-respiratory complications (p = 0.84), and overall complications (p = 0.71) did not differ significantly between the groups.

Background Tubal ligation (TL) is recommended for women who have completed their family planning. The existence of the menstrual disorders following this procedure has been the subject of debate for decades. This study was conducted to identify the relationship between tubal ligation and menstrual disorders. MaterialsAndMethods A historical cohort study was carried out on 140 women undergoing t...
متن کاملA pilot randomized study of the neutrophil elastase inhibitor, Sivelestat, in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
The primary objective of this study was to determine the feasibility and safety of treatment with Sivelestat in humans to attenuate post-cardiopulmonary bypass lung injury. Twenty patients scheduled to undergo on-pump coronary artery bypass surgery were randomized to receive either 0.3 mg/kg/h intravenous Sivelestat sodium (Sivelestat group; n=10) or isotonic sodium chloride solution (placebo g...
متن کاملInhibition of neutrophil elastase by recombinant human proteinase inhibitor 9.
Proteinase inhibitor PI9 (PI9) is an intracellular 42-kDa member of the ovalbumin family of serpins that is found primarily in placenta, lung and lymphocytes. PI9 has been shown to be a fast-acting inhibitor of granzyme B in vitro, presumably through the utilization of Glu(340) as the P(1) inhibitory residue in its reactive site loop. In this report, we describe the inhibition of human neutroph...
متن کاملNeutrophil elastase in bronchiectasis
The role of neutrophil elastase (NE) is poorly understood in bronchiectasis because of the lack of preclinical data and so most of the assumptions made about NE inhibitor potential benefit is based on data from CF. In this context, NE seems to be a predictor of long-term clinical outcomes and a possible target of treatment. In order to better evaluate the role of NE in bronchiectasis, a systema...
