Annals of Transplantation

BACKGROUND Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) is a novel strategy used for organ preservation. We aimed to determine the overall efficacy of NMP for liver preservation versus traditional static cold storage (CS). MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed a meta-analysis of the literature to evaluate the efficacy of NMP in experimental pig models of liver preservation. We use the standardized mean difference and 95% confidence intervals (CI) to calculate statistics and used the random effects model for the combined analysis of the results. RESULTS A total of 16 studies from 12 published articles were included. The combined results showed that NMP significantly decreased alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and hyaluronic acid levels in serum or perfusate, significantly increased bile production, and had a similar 5-7-days survival rate after liver transplantation compared with the CS group. CONCLUSIONS NMP provides superior graft preservation compared with CS in the pig model.

Normothermic Machine Perfusion versus Cold Storage of Liver in Pig Model: A Meta-Analysis

常温机械灌注与冷保存猪肝模型的比较：一项Meta分析

Background:Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) can result in severe disease requiring mechanical ventilatory support.A subset of these patients, however, demonstrate refractory hypoxemia/hypercarbia requiring veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) as adjunctive therapy.The primary goal of V-V ECMO is a "bridge" to recovery of native lung function; however, patients may progress to irreversible pulmonary damage requiring lung transplantation. Material/Methods:We conducted a retrospective review of patients with refractory COVID-19 ARDS/pulmonary fibrosis that required a V-V ECMO bridge to lung transplantation at our institution from May 2021 to December 2022.Data for analysis included patient demographics, pre/post-transplantation course, and 1-year outcomes. Results:Nine patients (6 male, 3 female) with an average age of 44.6±12.1 years required V-V ECMO support for COVID-19 and subsequently underwent lung transplantation.The median number of ECMO days was 57 (IQR 53-78).At listing, these patients had a median lung allocation score (LAS) of 91.86 ).The median hospital length-of-stay was 89 days (IQR 54-144) with the longest hospital stay at 255 days.All patients were discharged home and survived to 1-year post-transplant. Conclusions:Our case series shows that patients with COVID-19 ARDS/pulmonary fibrosis had no meaningful difference in overall survival compared to our institution's overall 1-year lung transplant survival rate.Our results suggest that with careful selection and care, long-term lung transplantation outcomes can be equivalent for those requiring a bridge to transplantation with V-V ECMO support despite the severity of illness in the peri-transplant period.

Arterial Reconstruction Using the Right Gastroepiploic Artery in Living Donor Liver Transplantation: A Single-Center Experience

活体供肝移植中使用胃右网膜动脉的动脉重建：单中心经验

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) exerts a significant protective role for donations after cardiac death (DCD) livers and verified the effects of NMP in preservation, repair, and preoperative assessment of human donor livers. The objective of this study was to verify the effectiveness and stability of NMP system by splitting pig livers in perfusion preservation. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Four healthy Ba-Ma miniature pigs were used. The livers were harvested, and then connected to the NMP system to split the livers. The indexes during the splitting were recorded, the serological indices were measured, and routine pathological examination of liver tissue were observed. RESULTS:With splitting, the portal vein pressure and the hepatic artery pressure were not significantly changed. The flow in the portal vein and hepatic artery reduced respectively from 455±107.55 mmHg, 180.75±59.46 mmHg before splitting to 392.5±125.27 mmHg and 126.25±6.99 mmHg after splitting. The liver preservation temperature was controlled to 38.83±0.24 to 38.93±0.43°C during splitting. At the beginning of perfusion preservation, the alanine aminotransferase(ALT), lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) were lower than the baseline level; ALT and LDH gradually increased with splitting, whereas ALP was maintained in a lower level in the splitting. At the beginning of perfusion preservation, aspartate aminotransferase(AST) was comparable with the baseline value, and it was gradually increased with splitting. The cell structure in the liver before NMP preservation and after splitting did not show significant changes. CONCLUSIONS:The NMP device developed in this study can be used for donor liver preservation and splitting, without causing significant liver damage.

Effect of Medical Accessibility on Long-Term Survival in Liver Transplantation

医疗可及性对肝移植长期生存的影响

BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common issue in intensive care units and is a potentially lethal consequence of severe burns. In severely burned patients with non-renal indications, renal replacement treatment is frequently used. This study's aim was to compile a 10-year summary of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) experience at a single burn center, including patient outcomes, effectiveness, and potential complications in the context of severe burns. MATERIAL AND METHODS This retrospective analysis included the clinical data from 723 burned patients. The data analysis of 300 patients with CRRT therapy included clinical data, laboratory tests, and CRRT parameters. The study group was split into 2 subgroups regarding onset of CRRT: early (up to 7 days after the trauma) and late. RESULTS Age, burn extent, length of stay, and inhalation injury all had an impact on survival. Early CRRT was linked to a greater probability of death (P<0.005). Upon admission to the burn center, patients with early CRRT exhibited a bigger burn area, higher Baux and SOFA scores, and were younger (P<0.05). Sepsis was diagnosed more frequently in the late CRRT group. CONCLUSIONS Our findings show that patients who require CRRT within the first 7 days following a burn injury have a poorer prognosis; however, this is not due to CRRT's effect, but rather to the trauma's severity. Future studies should explore long-term patient outcomes of CRRT among burn patients.
