© 2020 Elsevier Inc. Objective: Conflicting data exist on the effect of dexmedetomidine on delirium. For the present study, a randomized trial was performed to investigate the effect of perioperative dexmedetomidine on the rate of postoperative delirium after cardiac surgery. Design: A randomized controlled trial. Setting: University hospital. Participants: Patients (n = 169) undergoing elective cardiac surgery (coronary artery bypass graft surgery, valve surgery, or combined surgery) with cardiopulmonary bypass. Interventions: Patients received a sevoflurane-based general anesthesia and were randomly assigned 1:1 to receive a dexmedetomidine infusion that started in the operating room (0.7 μg/kg/h) and continued into the intensive care unit (0.4 μg/kg/h) or an equivolume infusion of placebo. Measurements and Main Results: A decrease in the rate of delirium in the dexmedetomidine group compared with the placebo group was demonstrated (6 of 84 [7.1%] v 16 of 85 [18.8%]; p = 0.02; odds ratio [OR] 0.33 [95% confidence interval {CI} 0.12-0.90]). Reduced intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stay also were observed (18 [18-22] hours v 22 [18-39] hours; p = 0.002 and 17 [7-20] days v 19 [8-21] days; p = 0.04, respectively). Mortality at 30 days was 2 (2.4%) in both groups. On multivariate analysis, only dexmedetomidine administration (OR 0.24 [95% CI 0.08-0.74]) and cardiopulmonary bypass time (OR 1.02 [95% CI 1.01-1.03] for increases of 1 min) were independent predictors of delirium development. Conclusions: Dexmedetomidine administered during and after general anesthesia for cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass decreased the rate of postoperative delirium and intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stay.

© 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. Management guidelines continue to identify metformin as initial pharmacologic antidiabetic therapy of choice for people with type 2 diabetes without contraindications, despite recent randomized trials that have demonstrated significant improvements in cardiovascular outcomes with newer classes of antidiabetic therapies. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current state of knowledge of metformin's therapeutic actions on blood glucose and cardiovascular clinical evidence and to consider the mechanisms that underlie them. The effects of metformin on glycaemia occur mainly in the liver, but metformin-stimulated glucose disposal by the gut has emerged as an increasingly import site of action of metformin. Additionally, metformin induces increased secretion of GLP-1 from intestinal L-cells. Clinical cardiovascular protection with metformin is supported by three randomized outcomes trials (in newly diagnosed and late stage insulin-treated type 2 diabetes patients) and a wealth of observational data. Initial evidence suggests that cotreatment with metformin may enhance the impact of newer incretin-based therapies on cardiovascular outcomes, an important observation as metformin can be combined with any other antidiabetic agent. Multiple potential mechanisms support the concept of cardiovascular protection with metformin beyond those provided by reduced blood glucose, including weight loss, improvements in haemostatic function, reduced inflammation, and oxidative stress, and inhibition of key steps in the process of atherosclerosis. Accordingly, metformin remains well placed to support improvements in cardiovascular outcomes, from diagnosis and throughout the course of type 2 diabetes, even in this new age of improved outcomes in type 2 diabetes.

The aim of this study was to identify predictors of poor outcomes in patients hospitalized for severe acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD). Methods. This retrospective, observational cohort study was conducted in Pulmonology Department of a city hospital in 2015 - 2016 and involved patients hospitalized for severe AECOPD. Patients were divided according to outcomes. Poor outcomes included at least one of the followings: the need in invasive (IMV) or non-invasive (NIV) ventilation, admission to ICU, in-hospital death and COPD-related readmission during 2 months. Demographic, clinical, laboratory parameters, pulmonary function tests and blood gas analysis were analyzed; different multidimensional prognostic scores were also evaluated and compared. Results. Of 121 patients included, a poor outcome had occurred in 45 patients (37%). Among them, NIV was required in 21 (17%), IMV in 8 (6%), and admission to ICU in 16 patients (13%); death was registered in 6 patients (5%) and readmission in 27 (22%) of the patients. Patients with poor outcomes were admitted more frequently by ambulance (62% vs 40%; p = 0.003), more often were admitted to a hospital for AECOPD in the previous year (69% vs 45%; p = 0.0006), and had lower pH (p = 0.001), lower PaO2 (p = 0.001), higher PaCO2 (p = 0.001), and a worse score on several prognostic scales such as APACHE II (13.9 ± 5.4 vs 7.8 ± 3.6; p = 0.001), DECAF (2.4 ± 0.6 vs 1.5 ± 0.6; p = 0.001), BODEx (5.6 ± 1.8 vs 3.9 ± 1.1; p = 0.001), DOSE (2.9 ± 1.5 vs 2.2 ± 1.2; p = 0.029), and ADO (4.9 ± 1.5 vs 4.3 ± 1.3; p = 0.015) at admission. They more frequently received O2 therapy (87% vs 46%; p = 0.001) and had longer hospital stay (19.2 ± 6.2 days vs 12.5 ± 1.8 days; p = 0.001). Conclusions. Hypercapnia, hypoxemia and worse prognostic scores on admission predicted poor outcome in patients hospitalized for AECOPD during the previous year.

© Bionika Media Ltd. Objective. To evaluate the efficiency of methodological approaches to optimizing the care of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) under the present-day conditions of a progressive increase in the incidence of this disease in case of a specialized obstetric hospital. Materials and methods. The statistical data on the 2015–2016 activities of the Outpatient Department and the Maternity Department, Moscow City Clinical Hospital Twenty-Nine, were retrospectively analyzed. Results. GDM was diagnosed in two thirds of the pregnant women at more than 30 weeks’ gestation in primary outpatient care services. In the management of pregnant women with untimely detected GDM, the sensitivity of ultrasound fetometry using the specific markers of diabetic fetopathy (DF) was 65.5%. Programmed labor (PL) was one of the leading methods during childbirth. Conclusion. Ultrasound fetometry using specific markers for DF and the strict continuity of outpatient and inpatient care permitted the frequency of DF to be reduced about 1.5-fold. The use of PL methods in GDM contributed to a two-fold decrease in the cesarean delivery rate without deteriorating the perinatal outcomes of labor.

© 2018, Pediatria Ltd.. All rights reserved. Objective of the research – to reveal the correlation between neurochemical criteria in the neonatal period and the consequences of severe hypoxic hemorrhagic CNS lesions in children according to catamnesis data. Materials and methods: researchers analyzed 54 cases of newborns of different gestational age (GA) that were in the ICU after birth due to severe condition; all newborns had combined hypoxic hemorrhagic brain lesion detected by neurosonography – periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) and intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) of various severity. Catamnesis follow-up was performed up to 2–2,5 years of age. The control group consisted of 20 newborns, comparable in GA, body weight at birth, with an Apgar score of at least 6 points in the 1st minute of life and without changes in neurosonography. In the neonatal period, serum concentrations of S100, BDNF, VEGF, ALCAM, DR5 were studied in dynamics using the quantitative ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay) according to a standard protocol. Results: the concentration of factors contributing to destructive changes in tissues (S100, DR5, ALCAM) in the serum, was in inverse correlation with the level of VEGF and BDNF. The latter had a direct correlation relationship. VEGF directly correlated with CNTF by the end of the 2 nd week of life. Results of catamnesis follow-up: 43 children diagnosed with cerebral palsy, 25 with spastic diplegia, 18 with spastic tetraparesis, and 11 without evident motor disorders. In 28 children I–III level of motor disorders was determined according to GMFS, in 26 children – IV–V level. At the age of 2 years, all children underwent MRI of the brain and gliio-atrophic changes were detected. Significant differences in the implementation of neurological consequences were found between the number of children with grade I and II IVH and PVL and III–IV degree IVH and PVL. Conclusion: children with PVL and IVH III–IV degree have a high risk of severe neurological outcomes – spastic tetraparesis, impaired motor activity by GMFS IV–V level, mental retardation and symptomatic epilepsy.
