Abstract
OBJECTIVES Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) undergoing cardiac surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are at risk for systemic inflammation leading to endothelial dysfunction associated with increased morbidity. Bioactive adrenomedullin (bio-ADM) is a peptide regulating vascular tone and endothelial permeability. The aim of this study was to evaluate the dynamics of plasma bio-ADM in this patient cohort and its role in capillary leak. METHODS Plasma samples from 73 pediatric CHD patients were collected for bio-ADM measurement at five different timepoints (TP) in the pre-, intra-, and post-operative period. The primary endpoint was a net increase in bio-ADM levels after surgery on CPB. Secondary endpoints included association of bio-ADM levels with clinical signs for endothelial dysfunction. RESULTS Bio-ADM levels increased after surgery on CPB from pre-operative median of 12 pg/mL (IQR [interquartile range] 12.0-14.8 pg/mL) to a maximum post-operative median of 48.8 pg/mL (IQR 34.5-69.6 pg/mL, p<0.001). Bio-ADM concentrations correlated positively with post-operative volume balance, (r=0.341; p=0.005), increased demand for vasoactive medication (duration: r=0.415; p<0.001; quantity: TP3: r=0.415, p<0.001; TP4: r=0.414, p<0.001), and hydrocortisone treatment for vasoplegia (bio-ADM median [IQR]:129.1 [55.4-139.2] pg/mL vs. 37.9 [25.2-64.6] pg/mL; p=0.034). Patients who required pleural effusion drainage revealed higher bio-ADM levels compared to those who did not (median [IQR]: 66.4 [55.4-90.9] pg/mL vs. 40.2 [28.2-57.0] pg/mL; p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Bio-ADM is elevated in children after cardiac surgery and higher levels correlate with clinical signs of capillary leakage. The peptide should be considered as biomarker for endothelial dysfunction and as potential therapeutic target in this indication.

Risk factors of postoperative low cardiac output syndrome in children with congenital heart disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Front Pediatr 2022; 10:954427.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is the most common complication after cardiac surgery, which is associated with the extension of postoperative hospital stay and postoperative death in children with congenital heart disease (CHD). Although there are some studies on the risk factors of LCOS in children with CHD, an unified conclusion is lack at present. PURPOSES To synthesize the risk factors of LCOS after CHD in children, and to provide evidence-based insights into the early identification and early intervention of LCOS. METHODS The databases of the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Database, China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP), PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase and Web of Science were searched for relevant articles that were published between the establishing time of each database and January 2022. Based on retrospective records or cohort studies, the influencing factors of postoperative low cardiac output in children with congenital heart disease were included in Meta analysis.This study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The risk of bias was evaluated according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). RevMan 5.4 software was used to conduct the meta-analysis. RESULTS A total of 1,886 records were screened, of which 18 were included in the final review. In total, 37 risk factors were identified in the systematic review. Meta- analysis showed that age, type of CHD, cardiac reoperation, biventricular shunt before operation, CPB duration, ACC duration, postoperative residual shunt, cTn-1 level 2 h after CPB > 14 ng/ml and postoperative 24 h MR-ProADM level > 1.5 nmol/l were independent risk factors of LCOS. Additionally, the level of blood oxygen saturation before the operation was found to have no statistically significant relationship with LOCS. CONCLUSION The risk factors of postoperative LCOS in children with CHD are related to disease condition, intraoperative time and postoperative related indexes, so early prevention should be aimed at high-risk children.
