AI Article Synopsis
- Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is a major complication after cardiac surgery in children with congenital heart disease (CHD), leading to prolonged hospital stays and higher risk of postoperative mortality.
- A systematic review analyzed 1,886 studies, identifying 37 risk factors associated with LCOS, such as age, type of CHD, and specific medical metrics post-surgery.
- The findings highlight the importance of early identification and intervention for LCOS, while also noting that blood oxygen saturation levels before surgery do not significantly correlate with LCOS.
Article 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.

Background: Aortoiliac disease (AID) is a variant of peripheral artery disease involving the infrarenal aorta and iliac arteries. Similar to other arterial diseases, aortoiliac disease obstructs blood flow through narrowed lumens or by embolization of plaques. AID, when symptomatic, may present with a triad of claudication, impotence, and absence of femoral pulses, a triad also referred as Leriche Syndrome (LS).

The objective of this retrospective observational study was to estimate the prevalence of actinic keratosis (AK) in individuals aged ≥ 40 years in France, to describe the characteristics of affected patients, and to describe treatments. A representative panel of 20,000 households with ≥ 1 member aged ≥ 40 years were invited to participate. Participants who reported AK lesions diagnosed by a physician were eligible.

Introduction: The present study aimed to explore the epidemiologic threats and factors associated with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-associated mucormycosis (CAM) epidemic that emerged in Egypt during the second COVID-19 wave. The study also aimed to explore the diagnostic features and the role of surgical interventions of CAM on the outcome of the disease in a central referral hospital.
Methodology: The study included 64 CAM patients from a referral hospital for CAM and a similar number of matched controls from COVID-19 patients who did not develop CAM.

Introduction: Acute kidney injury involves inflammation and intrinsic renal damage, and is a common complication of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Baseline chronic kidney disease (CKD) confers an increased mortality risk. We determined the renal long-term outcomes of COVID-19 in patients with baseline CKD, and the risk factors prompting renal replacement therapy (RRT) initiation and mortality.

Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with long-term symptoms, but the spectrum of these symptoms remains unclear. We aimed to identify the prevalence and factors associated with persistent symptoms in patients at the post-COVID-19 outpatient clinic.
Methodology: This cross-sectional, observational study included hospitalized severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infected patients followed-up at a post-COVID-19 clinic between September 2021 and January 2022.
