Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the relationship between postoperative delirium (POD) and pyroptosis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in the patients undergoing heart valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods:Sixty patients of either sex, aged 45-64 yr, with body mass index of 18-25 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ, with New York Heart Association class Ⅱ or Ⅲ, undergoing elective heart valve replacement with CPB, were enrolled in this study.POD was assessed by the Consciousness Assessment Method for the intensive care unit (CAM-ICU) within 3 days after operation.All the patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether POD occurred within 3 days after operation: POD group ( n=45) and non-POD group (NPOD group, n=15). After induction of anesthesia and before skin incision (T 1), at 30 min after start of CPB (T 2), immediately after termination of CPB (T 3) and at 24 h after termination of CPB (T 4), blood samples from the internal jugular vein were collected to determine the concentrations of plasma S100β, neuron-specific enolase (NSE), interleukin (IL)-18 and IL-1β (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and expression of nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), caspase-1 and gasdermin D (GSDMD) in PBMCs (by Western blot). The postoperative mechanical ventilation time and length of stay in ICU were recorded. Results:Compared with NPOD group, the concentrations of plasma S100β, NSE, IL-18 and IL-1β were significantly increased, the expression of NLRP3, caspase-1 and GSDMD in PBMCs was up-regulated at T 2-4, and the postoperative mechanical ventilation time and length of stay in ICU were prolonged in POD group ( P<0.05). Compared with those at T 1, the concentrations of plasma S100β, NSE, IL-18 and IL-1β were significantly increased, and the expression of NLRP3, caspase-1 and GSDMD in PBMCs was up-regulated at T 2-4 in POD and NPOD groups ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The occurrence of POD may be associated with the pyroptosis of PBMCs in patients undergoing heart valve replacement with CPB.
