ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of fibrinogen and classical markers of collagen metabolism [carboxy-terminal propeptide of type Ⅰ procollagen (PICP) and carboxy-terminal cross-linked peptide of type Ⅰ collagen (ICTP)] in peripheral blood and pericardial drainage after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and/or heart valve replacement (VR), and to evaluate their relationship with postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after cardiac surgery. MethodsPatients who underwent CABG and/or VR in the Heart Center of Beijing Chao-Yang Hospital from March to June 2021 were included. Peripheral blood and pericardial drainage fluid samples were collected before surgery and at 0 h, 6 h, 24 h and 48 h after surgery to detect PICP, ICTP and fibrinogen levels, and preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative confounding factors were also collected. PICP, ICTP and fibrinogen levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ResultsA total of 26 patients with 125 blood samples and 78 drainage samples were collected. There were 18 males and 8 females with an average age of 64.04±7.27 years. The incidence rate of POAF was 34.6%. Among the factors, the fibrinogen level in pericardial drainage showed two peaks within 48 h after operation (0 hand 24 h after operation) in the POAF group, while it showed a continuous downward trend in the sinus rhythm (SR) group, and the change trend of fibrinogen in pericardial drainage was significantly different over time between the two groups (P=0.022). Fibrinogen in blood, PICP and ICTP in blood and drainage showed an overall decreasing trend, and their trends over time were not significantly different between the two groups of patients (P>0.05). Univariate analysis showed that fibrinogen at 24 h and 48 h after pericardial drainage, fibrinogen in preoperative blood, PICP immediately after surgery and right atrial long axis diameter were significantly higher or longer in the POAF group than those in the SR group. Multiple regression showed that fibrinogen≥11.47 ng/mL in pericardial drainage 24 h after surgery (OR=14.911, 95%CI 1.371-162.122, P=0.026), right atrial long axis diameter≥46 mm (OR=10.801, 95%CI 1.011-115.391, P=0.049) were independent predictors of POAF. ConclusionThis study finds the regularity of changes in fibrinogen and collagen metabolic markers after CABG and/or VR surgery, and to find that fibrinogen in pericardial drainage 24 h after surgery is a potential novel and predictive factor for POAF. The results provide a new idea for exploring the mechanism of POAF, and provide a research basis for the accurate prediction and prevention of clinical POAF.
Objective To explore the correlations of plasma D-dimer and fibrinogen levels with carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA21-1) in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods The clinical data of 196 patients with NSCLC diagnosed for the first time in the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, the 416 Hospital of Nuclear Indusry between July 2017 and December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 57 cases in early stage (stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ), 57 cases in medium stage (stage Ⅲ), and 82 cases in advanced stage (stage Ⅳ) according to TNM staging, 108 cases of adenocarcinoma, 87 cases of squamous cell carcinoma, and 1 case of unclassified type according to pathological classification, and 19 deaths and 177 survivals according to outcome. The levels of D-dimer and fibrinogen were determined by immunoturbidimetry and coagulation method, and the levels of CEA and CFYRA21-1 were determined by electro-chemiluminescence method. The non-normally distributed data were presented as median (lower quartile, upper quartile), and Spearman correlation analyses were performed. Results Among the early, middle and advanced stage patients, the levels of D-dimer [198.00 (133.00, 390.87), 279.00 (170.93, 520.89), 389.00 (196.25, 931.00) μg/L], CEA [3.20 (2.60, 5.17), 13.53 (5.07, 70.63), 15.69 (4.07, 123.46) μg/L], and CFYRA21-1 [4.79 (3.15, 8.84), 8.60 (4.83, 19.32), 7.19 (3.09, 15.05) μg/L] were significantly different (P<0.05); however, there was no statistical difference in the level of fibrinogen among the three stages (P>0.05). The level of CYFRA21-1 in the adenocarcinoma group was lower than that in the squamous cell carcinoma group [(5.39 (2.81, 12.71) vs. 6.86 (4.18, 12.29) μg/L, P<0.05], while there was no statistically significant difference in D-dimer, CEA, or fibrinogen between the two groups (P>0.05). The levels of D-dimer, CEA, and CFYRA21-1 in the death group [1176.00 (382.00, 2848.00), 135.34 (24.85, 403.50), 10.82 (7.41, 23.41) μg/L] were significantly higher than those in the survival group [270.00 (146.00, 481.50), 5.62 (3.05, 26.53), 6.28 (3.37, 12.30) μg/L], and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01); but there was no statistical difference in the level of fibrinogen between the two groups (P>0.05). D-dimer was positively correlated with CEA and CFYRA21-1 (rs=0.450, 0.291; P<0.001), but fibrinogen was not correlated with CEA or CFYRA21-1 (P>0.05). Conclusion D-dimer was more valuable than fibrinogen in predicting the clinical stage and prognosis of NSCLC.

ObjectiveTo investigate the predictive value of preoperative plasma fibrinogen and serum albumin score (FA score) for postoperative survival of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after hepatectomy.MethodWe retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological data and follow-up information of 275 patients with HCC who underwent hepatectomy in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from March 2009 to December 2013.ResultsThere’s no statistically significant difference in gender, ALT, total bilirubin, hepatitis B virus surface antigens, AFP, cirrhosis, macrovascular invasion, tumor differentiation, TNM stage, and postoperative adjuvant transarterial chemoembolization of HCC patients between FA score of 0 group and FA score of 1 and 2 group (P>0.05). There’s statistically significant difference in age, AST, tumor size, tumor number, microvascular invasion, and BCLC stage (P<0.05). Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression analyses revealed that FA score (1 and 2) was an independent risk factor for HCC patients’ overall survival rate [HR=1.632, 95%CI was (1.141, 2.335), P=0.007] and early recurrence-free survival rate [HR=1.678, 95%CI was (1.083, 2.598), P=0.021], the overall survival rate and early recurrence free survival rate of HCC patients with FA score of 0 group were better than those of patients with FA score of 1 and2 group.ConclusionsThe preoperative FA score has a good prognostic value for survival of HCC patients who underwent hepatectomy. Preoperative FA score of 1 and 2 is an independent risk factor for overall survival rate and early recurrence free survival rate of HCC patients after hepatectomy.
As a risk factor for vascular diseases and inflammatory diseases, fibrinogen has received more and more attention. Hyperfibrinogenemia is associated with the occurrence, development, and poor outcome of artery-venous ischemic stroke (acute ischemic stroke, transient ischemic attack and cerebral venous thrombosis). Therefore, fibrinogen may be a potential therapeutic target for the prevention and management of artery-venous ischemic stroke. However, there has been controversy regarding the defibrinogen therapy in artery-venous ischemic stroke. Therefore, this paper introduces the efficacy and safety of defibrinogen therapy alone, combined with antiplatelet or combined with anticoagulant in prevention and management of artery-venous ischemic stroke in detail, in order to re-understand the role of defibrinogen therapy in the prevention and management of artery-venous ischemic stroke.
Objective To establish the optimal morphological criteria combined with fibrinogen level for evaluation of lymph node metastasis in colorectal cancer. Methods A consecutive series of 690 patients who underwent curative surgery for colorectal cancer, were examined by abdominopelvic enhanced multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) scan. If regional lymph nodes appeared, the maximal long-axis diameter (MLAD), maximal short-axis diameter (MSAD), and axial ratio (MSAD/MLAD) were recorded. At each lymph node size cut-off value, the following were calculated: accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV). Moreover, preoperative plasma level of fibrinogen was retrospectively examined to identify metastatic or inflammatory lymph node combined with MSCT image. Both modalities, MSCT plus fibrinogen and MSCT alone, were compared based on the pathologic findings. Results The study population consisted of 100 patients with regional lymph nodes show. No significant difference was found between metastatic and inflammatory lymph nodes in imaging characteristics (Pgt;0.05). The best cut-off value of MSAD was 6 mm for lymph node metastasis with the sensitivity of 46.8%, specificity of 68.4%, accuracy of 55.0%, PPV of 70.7% and NPV of 44.1%. The best cut-off value of MLAD was 8 mm with the sensitivity of 43.5%, specificity of 63.2%, accuracy of 51.0%, PPV of 65.9% and NPV of 40.7%. Using hyperfibrinogenemia (FIB ≥3.5 g/L) to identify small metastatic lymph node, of which MSAD lt;6 mm or MLAD lt;8 mm, showed statistical diagnostic value (Kappa=0.256, P=0.047). Compared with MSAD (6 mm) alone, MSAD (6 mm) combined with hyperfibrinogenemia had a higher sensitivity (79.0% vs. 46.8%, Plt;0.001), but a similar accuracy (66.0% vs. 55.0%, Pgt;0.05) and a lower specificity (44.7% vs. 68.4%, P=0.037). MLAD (8 mm) combined with hyperfibrinogenemia led to a greater diagnostic value in sensitivity (80.6% vs. 43.5%, Plt;0.001) and accuracy (66.0% vs. 51.0%, P=0.031) than MLAD (8 mm) alone, with a no-significantly decreasing specificity (42.1% vs. 63.2%, Pgt;0.05). Conclusions This present study recommend MSAD ≥6 mm or MLAD ≥8 mm as the optimal criteria for preoperative N staging in colorectal cancer. Moreover, the sensitivity and even accuracy could be improved by combining hyperfibrinogenemia for lymph node metastasis identification.
