Abstract
Background: Postoperative delirium (POD) is an acute mental disorder that occurs after surgery requiring general anesthesia. In animal studies, high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) plays a key role in mediating postoperative neuroinflammation and may have a direct impact on POD.
Objectives: The objective of this prospective observational study was to investigate the serum levels of HMGB1 in elderly POD patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty.
Material and methods: This prospective observational study included 287 elderly patients who underwent total hip arthroplasty in our hospital from October 2019 to September 2022. Patients were assessed for the presence of POD using the Confusion Assessment Method (CAM) within 72 h of surgery. Serum HMGB1, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before surgery, as well as at 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after surgery. Demographic and clinical data of all elderly patients were collected.
Results: The anesthesia time and surgical time in the POD group were significantly higher than those in the non-POD group. The serum levels of HMGB1, IL-6 and IL-1β in the POD group were significantly elevated compared to those in the non-POD group at all time points after surgery (p < 0.05). In addition, the serum levels of HMGB1 were positively correlated with TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β levels. HMGB1, IL-6 and IL-1β could be potential predictive biomarkers for the occurrence of POD in elderly patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. Finally, we found that anesthesia time, surgical time, HMGB1, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β were risk factors for POD in elderly patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty.
Conclusions: Serum HMGB1 levels were markedly elevated in elderly POD patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. In addition, HMGB1 could serve as a potential predictive biomarker for POD in elderly patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty.
期刊介绍:
Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine has been published by the Wroclaw Medical University since 1992. Establishing the medical journal was the idea of Prof. Bogumił Halawa, Chair of the Department of Cardiology, and was fully supported by the Rector of Wroclaw Medical University, Prof. Zbigniew Knapik. Prof. Halawa was also the first editor-in-chief, between 1992-1997. The journal, then entitled "Postępy Medycyny Klinicznej i Doświadczalnej", appeared quarterly.
Prof. Leszek Paradowski was editor-in-chief from 1997-1999. In 1998 he initiated alterations in the profile and cover design of the journal which were accepted by the Editorial Board. The title was changed to Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine. Articles in English were welcomed. A number of outstanding representatives of medical science from Poland and abroad were invited to participate in the newly established International Editorial Staff.
Prof. Antonina Harłozińska-Szmyrka was editor-in-chief in years 2000-2005, in years 2006-2007 once again prof. Leszek Paradowski and prof. Maria Podolak-Dawidziak was editor-in-chief in years 2008-2016. Since 2017 the editor-in chief is prof. Maciej Bagłaj.
Since July 2005, original papers have been published only in English. Case reports are no longer accepted. The manuscripts are reviewed by two independent reviewers and a statistical reviewer, and English texts are proofread by a native speaker.
The journal has been indexed in several databases: Scopus, Ulrich’sTM International Periodicals Directory, Index Copernicus and since 2007 in Thomson Reuters databases: Science Citation Index Expanded i Journal Citation Reports/Science Edition.
In 2010 the journal obtained Impact Factor which is now 1.179 pts. Articles published in the journal are worth 15 points among Polish journals according to the Polish Committee for Scientific Research and 169.43 points according to the Index Copernicus.
Since November 7, 2012, Advances in Clinical and Experimental Medicine has been indexed and included in National Library of Medicine’s MEDLINE database. English abstracts printed in the journal are included and searchable using PubMed http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed.
