Soluble CD73 in Critically Ill Septic Patients - Data from the Prospective FINNAKI Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

CD73 dephosphorylates adenosine monophosphate to adenosine that is an anti-inflammatory molecule inhibiting immune activation and vascular leakage. Therefore, CD73 could be an interesting mediator both in sepsis and acute kidney injury (AKI). We aimed to explore the soluble CD73 (sCD73) levels and their evolution in critically ill patients with severe sepsis and, second, to scrutinize the potential association of sCD73 levels with AKI and 90-day mortality.

Methods

This was a post-hoc laboratory analysis of the prospective, observational FINNAKI study conducted in 17 Finnish ICU during 5 months in 2011-2012. Plasma samples of 588 patients admitted with severe sepsis/shock or with developing severe sepsis were analyzed at 0h (ICU admission) and 24h, and additionally, on day 3 or day 5 from a subset of the patients.

Results

The median [IQR] sCD73 levels at 0h were 5.11 [3.29-8.28] ng/mL and they decreased significantly from 0h to 4.14 [2.88-7.11] ng/mL at 24h, P<0.001. From 24h to Day 3 (n = 132) the sCD73 levels rose to 5.18 [2.98-8.83] ng/mL (P = 0.373) and from 24h to Day 5 (n = 224) to 5.52 [3.57-8.90] ng/mL (P<0.001). Patients with AKI had higher sCD73 values at 0h and at 24h compared to those without AKI. Non-survivors with severe sepsis, but not with septic shock, had higher CD73 levels at each time-point compared to survivors. After multivariable adjustments, sCD73 levels at 0h associated independently neither with the development of AKI nor 90-day mortality.

Conclusions

Compared to normal population, the sCD73 levels were generally low at 0h, showed a decrease to 24h, and later an increase by day 5. The sCD73 levels do not seem useful in predicting the development of AKI or 90-day mortality among patients with severe sepsis or shock.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Associations among inflammatory cytokines, erythropoietin (EPO), and anemia in critically ill septic patients remain unclear. This study tested the hypothesis that elevated inflammatory cytokines and decreased EPO would be associated with iron-restricted anemia while accounting for operative blood loss, phlebotomy blood loss, and red blood cell (RBC) transfusion volume. METHODS:Prospective observational cohort study of 42 critically ill septic patients was conducted. Hemoglobin (Hb) at sepsis onset and hospital discharge were used to calculate ?Hb. Operative blood loss, phlebotomy blood loss, and RBC transfusion volume were used to calculate adjusted ?Hb (Adj?Hb) assuming that 300 mL RBC is equal to 1 g/dL Hb. Patients with Adj?Hb of greater than 0 (positive Adj?Hb, n = 18) were compared with patients with Adj?Hb of less than or equal to 0 (negative Adj?Hb, n = 24). RESULTS:Plasma tumor necrosis factor ?, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, EPO, erythrocyte mean corpuscular volume, and serum transferrin receptor were measured on days 0, 1, 4, 7, and 14. Patients with negative Adj?Hb had significantly higher day 14 levels of IL-6 (37.4 vs. 15.2 pg/mL, p < 0.05), IL-8 (39.1 vs. 18.2 pg/mL, p = 0.01), and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (101.3 vs. 60.5 pg/mL, p = 0.01), but not EPO. On linear regression analysis, lower Adj?Hb was associated with higher day 14 levels of IL-6 (r = 0.22, p < 0.01), IL-8 (r = 0.10, p = 0.04), stromal cell-derived factor 1 (r = 0.14, p = 0.02), and tumor necrosis factor ? (r = 0.13, p = 0.02), but not EPO. Patients with negative Adj?Hb had significantly lower mean corpuscular volume on days 4 (89.6 vs. 93.2 fL/cell, p = 0.04), 7 (92.3 vs. 94.9 fL/cell, p = 0.04), and 14 (92.1 vs. 96.0 fL/cell, p = 0.03) but similar serum transferrin receptor levels. CONCLUSION:Persistent elevation of inflammatory cytokines was associated with iron-restricted anemia among critically ill septic patients, occurring in the absence of systemic iron deficiency, independent of endogenous EPO. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:Prognostic study, level II.

Project description:BackgroundHaemoadsorption has been described as an effective way to control increased pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators ("cytokine storm") in septic shock patients. No prospective or randomised clinical study has yet confirmed these results. However, no study has yet prospectively specifically investigated patients in severe septic shock with sepsis-associated acute kidney injury (SA-AKI). Therefore, we aimed to examine whether haemoadsorption could influence intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital mortality in these patients. Furthermore, we examined the influence of haemoadsorption on length of stay in the ICU and therapeutic support.MethodsRetrospective control group and prospective intervention group design in a tertiary hospital in central Europe (Germany). Intervention was the implementation of haemoadsorption for patients in septic shock with SA-AKI. 76 patients were included in this analysis.ResultsSeverity of illness as depicted by APACHE II was higher in patients treated with haemoadsorption. Risk-adjusted ICU mortality rates (O/E ratios) did not differ significantly between the groups (0.80 vs. 0.83). We observed in patients treated with haemoadsorption a shorter LOS and shorter therapeutic support such as catecholamine dependency and duration of RRT. However, in multivariate analysis (logistic regression for mortality, competing risk for LOS), we found no significant differences between the two groups.ConclusionsThe implementation of haemoadsorption for patients in septic shock with acute renal failure did not lead to a reduction in ICU or hospital mortality rates. Despite univariate analysis delivering some evidence for a shorter duration of ICU-related treatments in the haemoadsorption group, these results did not remain significant in multivariate analysis.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Until now, the prognostic value of microcirculatory alterations in critically ill patients has been mainly evaluated in highly selected subgroups. Aim of this study is to monitor the microcirculation daily in mixed group of Intensive Care Unit (ICU)-patients and to establish the association between (the evolution of) microcirculatory alterations and outcome. METHODS:This is a prospective longitudinal observational single-centre study in adult patients admitted to a 12-bed ICU in an Italian teaching hospital. Sublingual microcirculation was evaluated daily, from admission to discharge/death, using Sidestream Dark Field imaging. Videos were analysed offline to assess flow and density variables. Laboratory and clinical data were recorded simultaneously. A priori, a Microvascular Flow Index (MFI) < 2.6 was defined as abnormal. A binary logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between microcirculatory variables and outcomes; a Kaplan-Meier survival curve was built. Outcomes were ICU and 90-day mortality. RESULTS:A total of 97 patients were included. An abnormal MFI was present on day 1 in 20.6%, and in 55.7% of cases during ICU admission. Patients with a baseline MFI < 2.6 had higher ICU, in-hospital and 90-day mortality (45 vs. 15.6%, p = 0.012; 55 vs. 28.6%, p = 0.035; 55 vs. 26%, p = 0.017, respectively). An independent association between baseline MFI < 2.6 and outcome was confirmed in a binary logistic analysis (odds ratio 4.594 [1.340-15.754], p = 0.015). A heart rate (HR) ≥ 90 bpm was an adjunctive predictor of mortality. However, a model with stepwise inclusion of mean arterial pressure < 65 mmHg, HR ≥ 90 bpm, lactate > 2 mmol/L and MFI < 2.6 did not detect significant differences in ICU mortality. In case an abnormal MFI was present on day 1, ICU mortality was significantly higher in comparison with patients with an abnormal MFI after day 1 (38 vs. 6%, p = 0.001), indicating a time-dependent significant difference in prognostic value. CONCLUSIONS:In a general ICU population, an abnormal microcirculation at baseline is an independent predictor for mortality. In this setting, additional routine daily microcirculatory monitoring did not reveal extra prognostic information. Further research is needed to integrate microcirculatory monitoring in a set of commonly available hemodynamic variables. Trial registration NCT 02649088, www.clinicaltrials.gov .
