About this study

Official title: The Effect of Preoperative Neutrophil / Lymphocyte Ratio and Uric Acid Values on Short and Long Term Mortality in Patients Undergoing Open Heart Surgery

Open heart surgeries are one of the major and complicated surgeries performed frequently in the world due to the prolongation of life expectancy and developments in medicine. As a result of these operations, not only the heart and vessels, but also all organs and systems depending on the systemic circulation are affected. Some biological inflammation markers have been determinant in determining cardiovascular risk. High neutrophil count was associated with increased mortality, while low lymphocyte count was a strong constant predictor of mortality. In addition, increased serum uric acid (UA) levels have been found to be associated with obesity, dyslipidemia, and hypertension, which is associated with cardiovascular disease risk. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of patients who underwent coronary bypass surgery under elective conditions in Karadeniz Technical University Faculty of Medicine between 2008-2020 on in-hospital and 1-year mortality based on preoperative neutrophil / lymphocyte ratios and uric acid values.

Read the detailed description

Open heart surgeries are one of the major and complicated surgeries performed frequently in the world due to the prolongation of life expectancy and developments in medicine. Mortality rates are decreasing day by day, although more and more additional diseases are present and older patients are taken in open heart surgery. The aim of these surgeries is to reduce the risk of death by correcting existing cardiac pathologies and increasing the quality of life of patients. For this reason, some studies have developed cardiac risk scoring methods in preoperative evaluation in order to predict mortality before surgery, and created a risky group such as advanced age, female gender, decreased left ventricular functions, those who use postoperative intraaortic balloon pumps, and those who receive inotrope support.

Some biological inflammation markers have been determinant in determining cardiovascular risk. High neutrophil count was associated with increased mortality, while low lymphocyte count was a strong constant predictor of mortality. Cardiovascular bypass itself is related to neutrophil activation, highlighting the effects of its high preoperative levels. Increased neutrophil counts are related to blood viscosity and hypercoagulability. Also, decreased lymphocyte count indicates increased physiological stress.

The importance of serum uric acid levels has been stated in many epidemiological studies as a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. Increased serum uric acid (UA) levels are associated with obesity, dyslipidemia, and hypertension, which is associated with a risk of cardiovascular disease. In another study, it was shown that the risk of cardiovascular mortality and increased serum UA levels were independently and significantly related.

The aim of this study was to examine the short-term (first 30 days) and long-term (1 year) mortality of patients who underwent elective coronary bypass surgery between 2008 and 2020 at the Karadeniz Technical University Faculty of Medicine, based on preoperative neutrophil / lymphocyte ratios and uric acid values. effects will be investigated

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mechanical Ventilation and Coronary Bypass Surgery, run by Karadeniz Technical University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jun 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

neutrophil / lymphocyte ratios (time frame: postoperative 2 week). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Jun 2021.
