Perioperative inflammatory response and protein S-100β concentrations - relationship with post-operative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients.
Summary of "Perioperative inflammatory response and protein S-100β concentrations - relationship with post-operative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients."
BACKGROUND:
One major concern in about one third of elder patients after total hip-replacement surgery is post-operative cognitive dysfunction (POCD). Previous studies have suggested that cognitive impairment is accompanied with changes in serum S-100β protein (S-100β) and inflammatory markers. Thus, the aim of the current study was to investigate the value of serum S-100β and interleukin(IL)-1β, IL-6, tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and C-reactive protein (CRP) in reflecting POCD after total hip-replacement surgery.
METHODS:
Forty-two elderly patients were enrolled, and 37 patients completed the follow-up. Serum S-100β protein and IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and CRP were determined pre-operatively, as well as 1 h and 6 h post-operatively. Neuropsychological tests were performed pre-operatively, as well as on day 1, 3, and 7 post-operatively.
RESULTS:
Seventeen (54.1%, 17/37) patients developed POCD 1 day after surgery, and three (8.1%, 3/37) developed POCD 7 days after surgery. Patients with POCD 1 day after surgery had significantly higher serum levels of IL-6 at 6 h (135 ± 32 pg/ml vs. 91 ± 29 pg/ml, P < 0.05) and S-100β at 1 h (1872 ± 385 pg/ml vs. 1289 ± 143 pg/ml, P < 0.05. No significant post-operative change was detected in levels of TNF-α, IL-1, or CRP.
CONCLUSION:
The serum levels of pro-inflammatory marker IL-6 and S-100β protein increased after total hip-replacement in elderly patients, and such increase may serve as predicting parameters for the occurrence of POCD.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Movement Disorders
Syndromes which feature DYSKINESIAS as a cardinal manifestation of the disease process. Included in this category are degenerative, hereditary, post-infectious, medication-induced, post-inflammatory, and post-traumatic conditions.
Dose-response Relationship, Radiation
The relationship between the dose of administered radiation and the response of the organism or tissue to the radiation.
Dose-response Relationship, Drug
The relationship between the dose of an administered drug and the response of the organism to the drug.
Benzydamine
A benzyl-indazole having analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects. It is used to reduce post-surgical and post-traumatic pain and edema and to promote healing. It is also used topically in treatment of RHEUMATIC DISEASES and INFLAMMATION of the mouth and throat.
Unfolded Protein Response
A cellular response to environmental insults that cause disruptions in PROTEIN FOLDING and/or accumulation of defectively folded protein in the ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM. It consists of a group of regulatory cascades that are triggered as a response to altered levels of calcium and/or the redox state of the endoplasmic reticulum. Persistent activation of the unfolded protein response leads to the induction of APOPTOSIS.
