BACKGROUNDThe impact of sequential vein bypass grafting on clinical outcomes is less known in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We aimed to evaluate the effects of sequential vein bypass grafting on clinical outcomes in off-pump CABG.
METHODSFrom October 2009 to September 2013 at the Fuwai Hospital, 127 patients with at least one sequential venous graft were matched with 127 patients of individual venous grafts only, using propensity score matching method to obtain risk-adjusted outcome comparison. In-hospital measurement was composite outcome of in-hospital death, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, requirement for intra-aortic ballon pump (IABP) assistance and prolonged ventilation. Major adverse cardiac events (MACEs: Death, MI or repeat revascularization) and angina recurrence were considered as mid-term endpoints.
RESULTSNo significant difference was observed among the groups in baseline characteristics. Intraoperative mean blood flow per vein graft was 40.4 ml in individual venous grafts groups versus 59.5 ml in sequential venous grafts groups (P < 0.001). There were no differences between individual and sequential venous grafts groups with regard to composite outcome of in-hospital mortality, MI, stroke, IABP assistance and prolonged ventilation (11.0% vs. 14.2%, P = 0.45). Individual in-hospital measurement also did not differ significantly between the two groups. At about four years follow-up, the survival estimates free from MACEs (92.5% vs. 97.3%, P = 0.36) and survival rates free of angina recurrence (80.9% vs. 85.5%, P = 0.48) were similar among individual and sequential venous grafts groups with a mean follow-up of 22.5 months. In the Cox regression analysis, sequential vein bypass grafting was not identified as an independent predictor of both MACEs and angina recurrence.
CONCLUSIONSCompared to individual vein bypass grafting, sequential vein bypass grafting was not associated with an increase of either in-hospital or mid-term adverse events in patients undergoing off-pump CABG.

OBJECTIVETo compare the perioperative release levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) between off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) or conventional coronary artery bypass grafting (CCABG) in an attempt to detect myocardial injury.
METHODSFifty-nine patients with instable angina underwent coronary artery bypass grafting by OPCAB in 34 patients aged (59.15 +/- 1.71) years or CCABG in 25 patients, aged (54.46 +/- 1.81) years.
RESULTSBaseline characteristics were similar. The number of grafts was similar (OPCAB, mean 2.90; CCABG, mean 3.2), and no patient died. Postoperative myocardial serum enzyme measures were significantly lower in OPCAB, suggesting less myocardial injury. OPCAB patients did not receive blood transfusion, and had higher hematocrit at discharge. Most of OPCAB patients were extubated in 4 hours.
CONCLUSIONSCompared with CCABG, OPCAB may achieve similar outcomes; it reduces transfusion volume and creates less myocardial injury.

BACKGROUNDAcute renal failure following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Approximately half of all patients who develop acute kidney injury (AKI) subsequently develop acute renal failure (ARF). The purpose of the study was to compare early transient changes in renal function within the first post-operative week following CABG in patients that were either off-pump or on-pump.
METHODSEight hundred and forty-nine consecutive patients with isolated CABG in a single institution between January 1990 and August 2006 were retrospectively analyzed, including 518 off-pump and 331 on-pump patients. A multivariate Logistic regression model was constructed to identify risk factors for the development of AKI.
RESULTSSixty-one off-pump patients and 63 on-pump patients developed AKI. Risk factors for the development of post-operative AKI included an ejection fraction > or =50% or < or =30%, a pulse pressure > or =60 mmHg, peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, emergent procedure, triple-vessel disease, body mass index, peri-operative and post-operative. intra-aortic balloon pumping, NYHA class III and IV, and cardiopulmonary bypass. An ejection fraction > or =50% and peri-operative and post-operative intra-aortic balloon pumping were protective (OR <1). Peak serum creatinine for post-operative AKI was noted 12 hours and 24 hours in the off-pump and on-pump patients, respectively. Serum creatinine kinetics revealed rapid recovery in the 24th to 48th hour (off-pump) and the 48th to 72nd hour (on-pump).
CONCLUSIONRenal protection strategies are indicated from general anesthesia induction until 48 and 72 hours post-operatively in off-pump and on-pump patients, respectively.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the difference in circulating endothelial cell (CECs) injuries following on-pump and off-pump coronary-artery bypass surgery.
METHODSWe randomly assigned 48 patients scheduled for urgent or elective coronary artery bypass grafting into two groups to receive on-pump and off-pump procedures. Blood samples were obtained before anesthesia, at the end of operation, and on days 1 and 3 after the operation, and CECs were isolated and counted using dynabeads coated with the specific antibody of CD146. Single cell gel electrophoresis was used to observe the morphological changes of the CECs.
RESULTSIn the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) group, the number of CECs was significantly greater than that in non-CPB group (P<0.05) at the end of surgery and 1 day after the operation. On postoperative day 3, the number CECs was similar between the two groups (P>0.05). The length of the comet tail was longer in CPB group with stronger fluorescence intensity than in the non-CPB group.
CONCLUSIONCompared with of-pump coronary artery bypass grafting, on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting results in more serious CEC injury, which is closely related to the prognosis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the incidence and risk factors of acute kidney injury (AKI) within the first postoperative week after off-pump or on-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB or CCAB) surgery.
METHODSConsecutive patients underwent CABG between January 1990 and August 2006 in our institution and had normal serum creatinine (Scr) and estimated creatinine clearance (Ccr) values before operation were retrospectively analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for the development of AKI defined as Scr 130 - 199 micromol/L or Ccr 30 - 60 mlxmin(-1)x1.73 m(-2).
RESULTSIncidence of AKI was significantly higher in patients underwent CCAB compared to those underwent OPCAB (63/331 vs. 61/518, P < 0.01). Peak Scr value was seen at 12th hour post OPCAB and 24th hour post CCAB, respectively. The rapid recovering of Scr occurred between 24th hour to 48th hour in patients underwent OPCAB and 48th hour to 72th hour in patients underwent CCAB surgery. Multivariate forward stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that LVEF < 30%, pulse pressure >/= 60 mm Hg (1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa), peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, emergent procedure, triple-vessel disease, higher body mass index (kg/m(2)), intraoperative and postoperative IABP, NYHA class III or IV and cardiopulmonary bypass were risk factors for the development of postoperative AKI following CABG, while LVEF > 50% and intraoperative and postoperative IABP were associated with lower incidence of AKI (OR < 1).
CONCLUSIONAKI is not a rare complication post OPCAB or CCAB surgery, especially in patients with reduced LVEF, increased pulse pressure, peripheral vascular disease, diabetes, emergent procedure, triple-vessel disease, higher body mass index, intraoperative and postoperative IABP.

6.Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in Moyamoya Disease.
Yonsei Medical Journal 2007;48(5):876-878
Moyamoya disease is an occlusive intracranial arteriopathy owing to intimal hyperplasia with formation of abnormal cerebrovascular collateral networks; however, the etiology remains unclear. Although this disease is known to be associated with renovascular hypertension, it is extremely rare for it to be associated with stenoses of the coronary arteries. We herein described a case of a 56-year-old female with angina and asymptomatic moyamoya disease. We performed off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) to avoid cardiopulmonary bypass and the risk of intraoperative hypotension. Conventional coronary artery bypass grafting has a potential risk of brain ischemia in moyamoya patients, but OPCAB may avoid this perioperative cerebral ischemic complication.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for graft occlusion post coronary artery bypass graft (CABG).
METHODSThe clinical data of 135 post-CABG patients with bypass graft occlusion and angina pectoris symptoms admitted to our department between June 2003 and June 2007 were analyzed. The mean interval from CABG to index angiography was 33.8 +/- 23.5 months. Among 318 grafts, 29 left internal mammary artery (LIMA, 29/128, 22.7%) and 117 saphenous vein bypass grafts (117/188, 62.2%) were occluded. A total of 158 target lesions from these 146 vessels were treated with PCI. All target lesions were B2/C type lesion with 29.7% (47/158) chronic total occlusions.
RESULTSA total of 310 DES were implanted. The total success rate of PCI procedure was 96. 3% (130/135), and lesion success rate was 96.8% (153/158). No major clinical complications occurred during peri-intervention period. All patients underwent PCI were followed at 12 month. Angiographic follow-up was obtained in 89 patients and the angiographic restenosis rate was 5.6% (5/89) in these patients. The major adverse cardiac events and target vessel revascularization rates were 5.4% (7/130) and 6.2% (8/130), respectively.
CONCLUSIONThis study demonstrates that PCI procedure for graft occlusion post-CABG is feasible and safe and associated with a high procedure success rate and favorable long-term clinical and angiographic outcomes.

INTRODUCTIONDiabetes and habitual smoking cause advanced coronary artery disease (CAD) in Asian patients at a younger age. No definite data exist as to whether off-pump (OPCAB) is better than conventional on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CCAB) in terms of postoperative renal complications. Thus, we aimed to compare the renal outcomes of on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on our patients, which constituted a predominantly Asian population.
MATERIALS AND METHODSA cohort of 395 patients following CCAB were compared with 293 patients who underwent OPCAB. Baseline demographics, comorbidities, intraoperative data, intensive care unit stay, number of grafts, New York Heart Association (NYHA) score, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, EuroSCORE risk assessment model, and postoperative complications particularly renal, were collected and analysed.
RESULTSThe off-pump group consisted of significantly older patients with higher Canadian Cardiovascular Society (CCS) and ASA scores. Additionally, the off-pump group involved a significantly greater number of smokers and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. Other demographic parameters were not different between the groups. Postoperative investigations showed a significantly elevated serum creatinine (100.3 +/- 42.5 vs 127.6 +/- 114.2 micromol/L; off-pump vs on-pump; P = 0.039) and urea levels (5.9 +/- 3.1 vs 10.6 +/- 15.6 mg/dL; off-pump vs on-pump; P = 0.006) in the on-pump group. Moreover, there was a high tendency towards a higher rate of renal dysfunction associated death in this group.
CONCLUSIONSOPCAB is a safe and equally efficient operative method compared to CCAB, and has a significant lower risk for postoperative renal complications as a treatment modality for surgical coronary revascularisation.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the risk factors of cognitive impairment after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG).
METHODSA total of 102 patients [male: 82, age: (65.7 ± 7.1) years] undergoing OPCABG in our hospital between January 2009 and December 2010 were divided into postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) group and non-POCD group by the MMSE questionnaire survey conducted at 7 days pre- and post-operation respectively.
RESULTSThe incidence of POCD was 48.0% (49/102). Multivariate logistic stepwise regression analysis showed: advanced age (OR = 1.32, 95%CI: 1.10 - 1.46, P = 0.002), smoking (OR = 1.26, 95%CI: 1.18 - 1.32, P = 0.001), hypertension (OR = 1.66, 95%CI: 1.36 - 1.78, P = 0.023), diabetes (OR = 1.62, 95%CI: 1.02 - 2.84, P = 0.032), stroke (OR = 3.32, 95%CI: 1.68 - 6.49, P < 0.001), mitral regurgitation (OR = 1.48, 95%CI: 1.26 - 1.89, P < 0.001), and time of wall clamp (OR = 4.84, 95%CI: 1.08 - 7.28, P < 0.001) were independent risk factors of POCD.
CONCLUSIONAdvanced age, smoking, hypertension, diabetes, stroke, mitral regurgitation, and prolonged time of wall clamp are major risk factors for POCD in patients undergoing OPCABG.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the relationship between the circadian rhythm of perioperative cortisol secretion and neuropsychological states in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting surgery.
METHODSForty male patients scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) under hypothermic cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) or off-pump were enrolled in this study. They were allocated into CPB group or off-pump group with 20 patients in each group. Blood samples were withdrawn during surgery at specific time-points and every 3 h for 24 h in the immediate postoperative period. Plasma cortisol was measured by radioimmunoassay. All subjects were investigated preoperatively as well as 7 to 10 d and 3 months postoperatively with a comprehensive neuropsychologic assessment, while depression and anxiety were assessed by Self-Rating Depression Scale and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory respectively.
RESULTSDuring postoperative 24 h, three patients in the CPB group and 7 patients in the off-pump group were demonstrating a circadian secretion pattern, while they were disturbed in the remaining patients in both groups. Postoperative depression scores of patients in both groups were significantly higher than preoperative values. Postoperative anxiety scores of patients in the CPB group were significantly higher than those in the off-pump group. The CABG with CPB patients showed a significant deficit in the Digit Span subtest of the WAIS-R and the Stroop colour word interference test. The disturbed cortisol circadian secretion in the CPB group correlated with depression and the Stroop colour word interference test, whereas in the off-pump group it correlated with depression, Digit Span subtest (forward), symbol digit modalities test and the Stroop colour word interference test. Degree of depression correlated with some items of cognitive dysfunctions.
CONCLUSIONPerioperative secretion rhythm of cortisol in patients undergoing CABG surgery with CPB or off-pump was disturbed. The disordered cortisol may correlate directly or indirectly through mood with neuropsychological deficits.
