Coronary artery bypass grafting has made great progress in recent years. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting （off-pump） can escape from many complications resulting from cardiopulmonary bypass which powered the interest of more and more surgeons, but it is more technically demanding. Conventional coronary artery bypass grafting aided by cardiopulmonary bypass （on-pump） can provide with good condition for anastomosis, and is still applied widely. The comparation of the two surgical techniques were reviewed, including graft patency, mortality, inflammatory response, influence on coagulation and anticoagulation, injury to important organs, hospital length of stay and cost, technical convertion, et al.
Abstract:Objective To investigate the pattern and affecting factors of hematopoietic stem cell mobilization after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting（OPCAB）. Methods Fifty-five patients of coronary artery disease without acute myocardial infarction （AMI） who underwent selective OPCAB were chosen for this study. Four ml blood sample was taken at 30 min before operation, and 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 120 h after operation. The hematopoietic stem cell count was made by flow cytometer with CD34 and CD45 double antibody. The serum myoeardium enzyme and troponin T （cTnT） were measured at the same time. Results The hematopoietic stem cell count was 0. 13%±0. 12% of all nucleated cells in the peripheral blood circulation before operation. It increased significantly witha peak value at 24 halter OPCAB（0.34%±0.20%）. It turned back to pre-operativelevelat 120h after operation. Smoking, hyperlipemia and diabetes mellitus had no effect on hematopoietic stem cell mobilization. But hypertension could reduce its mobilization significantly. The hematopoietic stem cell count was positively correlated with creatine kinase （CK）, creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme （CK-MB）, lactate de hydrogenase （LDH） and cTnT （r=0. 692,P=0. 000; r=0. 558, P=0. 000; r=0. 447, P=0. 000 and r=0. 401, P=0. 004, respectively） 24h after OPCAB. Conclusion Hematopoietic stem cells mobilize rapidly and temporarily after OPCAB. Myocardial injury and CABG risk factors take part in hematopoietic stem cell mobilization.
Objective To investigate the incidence of perioperative stroke in elderly patients (≥65 years) undergoing offpump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) versus onpump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods WTBZ]We electronically searched PubMed (from 1966 to 2010), Cochrane Library (Issue 12, 2010), EMbase (from 1974 to 2010), CNKI (Chinese, from 1997 to 2010), CBM (Chinese, from 1989 to 2010), and manually searched some journals to collect published or grey literatures of clinical researches on comparison between OPCAB and CABG for elderly patients in the incidence of perioperative strokes. We assessed the methodology quality of included researches and extracted data to conduct metaanalysis by RevMan 5.0 software. Four subgroups (aged 65 to 70 years, 70 to 75 years, 75 to 80 years, and older than 80 years) according to the age of the patients, and subgroups according to the study design were analyzed respectively. Sensitivity analysis was conducted by deleting the studies of low quality. Results We finally identified 17 studies including 5 historical cohort studies and 12 case control studies. No randomized controlled trial was searched. A total of 7 275 patients including 2 521 (34.65%) in the OPCAB group and 4 754 (65.35%) in the CABG group were identified. The metaanalyses of historical cohort study subgroup and case control study subgroup showed statistical difference in stroke incidence between the OPCABG and CABG groups with OR 0.25 and 95%CI 0.10 to 0.62,and with OR 0.25 and 95%CI 0.15 to 0.41,respectively. Statistical difference was tested in three age subgroups (70 to 75 years, 75 to 80 years, and elder than 80 years) and the OR (95%CI) value was 0.35 (0.21, 0.59), 0.14 (0.04, 0.54), and 0.09 (0.02, 0.38),respectively. The difference of stroke incidence between OPCAB and CABG patients in all the three subgroups was significant, while there was no statistical difference in the subgroup aged 65 to 70 years with OR 0.10 and 95%CI 0.01 to 1.68. The sensitvity analysis showed that metaanalysis was stable in case control study subgroup, was not stable in historical cohort study subgroup. Conclusions OPCAB may reduce incidence of perioperative stroke in elderly patients. However, it still needs to be confirmed by more multicenter, largesample, and randomized doubleblind controlled trials in the future.
Objective To investigate the influence of prior percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on the outcome of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods Clinical data of 5 216 patients from Jiangsu Province CABG registry who underwent primary isolated CABG from 2016 to 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into a PCI group (n=673) and a non-PCI group (n=4 543) according to whether they had received PCI treatment. The PCI group included 491 males and 182 females, aged 62.6±8.2 years, and the non-PCI group included 3 335 males and 1 208 females, aged 63.7±8.7 years. Multivariable logistic regression and propensity score matching (PSM) were used to compare 30-day mortality, incidence of major complications and 1-year follow-up outcomes between the two groups. Results Both in original cohort and matched cohort, there was no statistical difference in the 30-day mortality [14 (2.1%) vs. 77 (1.7%), P=0.579; 14 (2.1%) vs. 11 (1.6%), P=0.686], or the incidence of major complications (myocardial infarction, stroke, mechanical ventilation≥24 h, dialysis for new-onset renal failure, deep sternal wound infection and atrial fibrillation) (all P>0.05). The rate of reoperation for bleeding in the PCI group was higher than that in the non-PCI group [19 (2.8%) vs. 67 (1.5%), P=0.016; 19 (2.8%) vs. 7 (1.0%), P=0.029]. Both in original cohort and matched cohort, there was no statistical difference in 1-year survival rate between the two groups [613 (93.1%) vs. 4225 (94.6%), P=0.119; 613 (93.1%) vs. 630 (95.2%), P=0.124], while the re-admission rate in the PCI group was significantly higher than that in the non-PCI group [32 (4.9%) vs. 113 (2.5%), P=0.001; 32 (4.9%) vs. 17 (2.6%), P=0.040]. Conclusion This study shows that a history of PCI treatment does not significantly increase the perioperative mortality and major complications of CABG, but increases the rate of cardiogenic re-admission 1 year postoperatively.

Since the advent of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), the selection of bypass conduits has always been one of the most controversial topics in this field. Arterial conduits have received extensive attention due to their excellent biological features and high patency. In recent years, the application of arterial grafting and total arterial grafting in China keeps increasing in recent years, but there is still a gap compared to the Europe and America. Previous clinical studies have indicated the benefits of the total arterial grafting in terms of patency and long-term outcomes, but the advantage of multiple arterial grafting over other procedures is still in need to be confirmed with high-quality randomized controlled trials. This article reviews the clinical application and strategy of total-arterial CABG, aiming to provide objective reference for future clinical research and application.
