Gut Microbiota and Amino Acid Metabolism in Post-CPB Delayed Neurocognitive Recovery
Role of the Holdemanella Biformis-Related Amino Acid Metabolic Guild and Intestinal Barrier Injury in Cardiopulmonary Bypass-Associated Delayed Neurocognitive Recovery: A Prospective Observational Cohort Study
Delayed neurocognitive recovery (dNCR) is a common neurological complication in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Emerging evidence suggests that CPB-associated hypoperfusion and perioperative stress remodel the gut microbiome and impair intestinal barrier integrity, which may contribute to neuroinflammation and cognitive decline via the gut-brain axis. This prospective observational cohort study aims to investigate the longitudinal trajectories of the gut metagenome (specifically focusing on Holdemanella biformis and amino acid metabolic functions), fecal and plasma metabolites (L-lysine, L-tryptophan, tryptophanol, and short-chain fatty acids), and plasma markers of intestinal barrier injury (I-FABP) and endotoxin response (LBP) from pre-operation (T0) to post-operation (T2) in adult CPB patients, and to evaluate their associations with postoperative dNCR and domain-specific cognitive changes.

상세 설명
Adult patients (aged 18 years or older) scheduled for elective cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) will be prospectively enrolled. Comprehensive neuropsychological assessments covering global cognition (MoCA), learning and memory (HVLT or RAVLT), executive function (Trail Making Test B), and attention/processing speed (Digit Span and Digit Symbol tests) will be conducted at baseline (T0: 1 to 3 days before surgery) and postoperatively (T2: 5 to 10 days after surgery or before hospital discharge). Postoperative delirium will be screened daily using CAM or CAM-ICU. Paired stool and blood samples will be collected at both T0 and T2. Stool samples will undergo shotgun metagenomic sequencing and targeted metabolomics profiling (pre-specified panel: L-lysine, L-tryptophan, tryptophanol, acetate, propionate, and butyrate). Blood samples will be analyzed for intestinal fatty acid-binding protein (I-FABP) and lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP). Linear mixed-effects models and multivariable regression adjusting for age and clinical covariates will be applied to identify time-by-dNCR interaction effects and associations with the continuous global cognitive composite delta-Z score.

Adult CPB Cohort
Adult patients aged 18 years or older undergoing elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), evaluated longitudinally at T0 (1-3 days preoperatively) and T2 (5-10 days postoperatively or before discharge) for cognitive function, gut microbiome, fecal metabolites, and plasma intestinal injury biomarkers. |
Observational collection of paired stool and blood samples and administration of neuropsychological test batteries at T0 and T2 during routine perioperative care for cardiac surgery with CPB. No experimental therapeutic intervention is administered. |

Change in Global Cognitive Composite Z-Score (Delta-Z)
기간: Baseline (T0: 1 to 3 days before surgery) and Postoperative (T2: 5 to 10 days after surgery or prior to hospital discharge)
|
A composite cognitive Z-score calculated from a neuropsychological test battery assessing learning and memory (Hopkins Verbal Learning Test [HVLT] or Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test [RAVLT]), executive function (Trail Making Test Part B [TMT-B]), and attention/processing speed (Digit Span and Digit Symbol tests). Individual test change scores (T2 minus T0) are standardized and combined into a global cognitive composite delta-Z score (higher values indicate better cognitive preservation). |

Incidence of Delayed Neurocognitive Recovery (dNCR)
기간: From baseline (T0: 1 to 3 days before surgery) to T2 (5 to 10 days after surgery or prior to hospital discharge)
