Uremic Encephalopathy

Neurologic Manifestations

On living donor hepatectomy (preoperative), the first following day of surgery, 3rd day, and 7th day, blood will be taken for the measurement of S100β, NSE, and GFAP levels in the postoperative period. The plasma of the blood taken will be separated and stored at -800C. Values will be measured by the ELISA method. During the hospitalization, the delirium status of the patients will be evaluated with the delirium evaluation scale (Delirium Rating Scale-Revised - 98 Turkish version). Functional and cognitive information and other results will be collected at each follow-up point.

s100β, NSE n GFAP in Living Donor Hepatectomy and Delirium

In Living Donor Hepatectomy Cases, the Preoperative and Postoperative Relationship Between s100β, NSE and GFAP Levels and Postoperative Delirium

Approximately 25 patients planned to have living donor hepatectomy will be included in the study. The blood samples are taken in the preoperative period before the induction of anesthesia in the operating room and postoperative (the first day, the third day and the seventh day) period to analyze S100β serum concentrations and neurologic damage of living donor hepatectomy patients besides evaluating its effect on prognosis. These samples shall be kept at -80 0C until the plasma separation process.

Weight (in Kilograms) and Height (in Meters) were measured using a portable stadiometer with movable head piece typically mounted on balanced beam scale (Segma, Germany). Body mass index (BMI) is the relative weight for height and it was calculated according to formula bellow:
BMI=Weight (Kg) / Height2 (m)

Body Mass Index (BMI)

Assessments involve the measurement of serum Triglyceride (TG) level.

Changes Serum Triglyceride Levels

Assessments involve the measurement of serum Total (TC), High density lipoprotein (HDL-C) and direct Low density lipoprotein (d-LDL-C) cholesterol levels.
Serum non HDL-C levels is calculated by subtracting HDL-C from TC. Serum Remnant cholesterol (RC) is calculated by subtracting HDL-C and d-LDL-C from TC.

Changes in Serum Lipoprotein Cholesterol Levels

Assessments involve the measurement of serum Apolipoprotein A1 (Apo A1) and B (Apo B) levels.

Changes in Serum Apolipoprotein Levels

Assessments involve the measurement of serum fasting glucose levels.

Changes in Serum Fasting Glucose Levels.

Assessments involve the measurement of serum creatinine which is used to calculate eGFR using the CKD-EPI equation (2009) .

Changes in Estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate (eGFR)

Assessments involve the measurement of serum uric acid levels

Changes in Serum Uric Acid Levels

Assessments involve the measurement of serum enzymes including Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) and Creatine Kinase (CK) levels.

Changes in Serum Enzymes Levels

Assessments involve the measurement of systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Patients were allowed to rest for 15 minutes in sitting position, and Walgreens Homedics WGNBPA-540 upper arm blood pressure monitor (Walgreens, China), was used for the measurement of blood pressure. Three consecutive readings were taken at 1 minute interval, and systolic and diastolic blood pressure were calculated as the mean of the last two readings.

Changes in Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure

Assessments comprise the total number of participants complicating and reporting muscle pain,flushing, nausea, vomiting, and dizziness.
As part of the complete safety profile of each arm,other specific reported adverse event are presented in the Adverse Event Module.
