Cardiac surgery is associated with the development of a systemic inflammatory response. Inflammation represents the response of the body to tissue injury and in normal circumstances is a controlled humoral and cellular response that will lead to control of infection and wound healing. In some instances this response may become exaggerated, ultimately leading to additional tissue injury and the development of organ dysfunction. In this paper we discuss about relationships between cardiac surgery anesthesia and systemic inflammatory response.

Introduction. Acute pancreatitis is a common pathology in abdominal surgery, so the prevalence reaches 238 cases per million populations. It should be noted that pancreatic necrosis develops in 25% of patients with acute pancreatitis, and mortality can reach up to 20%. Purpose of the study. The investigate effect on the pancreatic necrosis course of the systemic inflammatory response. Materials and methods. We examined 96 patients aged from 19 to 78 years. During the course of the disease, a systemic inflammatory response developed in 79% of patients with acute necrotizing pancreatitis. Results. It was found that the lethal cases of acute necrotic pancreatitis occurred only with the development of multiple organ failure with a score of 6 or more on the SOFA scale. The correlation coefficients between the signs, affecting the risk of developing severe multiorgan failure, were calculated. It was proved that in case of a pronounced systemic inflammatory reaction, a patient produces a large amount of free fluid in the abdominal cavity, and is a risk of an early fatal outcome. It should be noted that in the presence of obesity there was a tendency to the risk of developing severe multiorgan failure. Conclusion. In acute necrotizing pancreatitis, the risk of severe multiorgan failure and death is only in patients with a systemic inflammatory reaction (especially in the presence of obesity and the elderly patient), and the degree of risk reliably depends on the severity of signs of an inflammatory response. Keywords: acute pancreatitis, pancreatic necrosis, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, multiple organ failure, septic complications.

The aim of this mini-review is to discuss the role of calcium in the process of cytokine-mediated bone resorption in an effort to understand the role circulating calcium may play in the resorption of bone. The liberation of calcium and possibly phosphorus and magnesium by bone resorption may sustain and intensify the inflammatory response. We used a burn injury setting in humans and a burn injury model in animals in order to examine the effects on the bone of the systemic inflammatory response and identified the parathyroid calcium-sensing receptor as the mediator of increasing bone resorption, hence higher interleukin (IL)-1 production, and decreasing bone resorption, hence the lowering of circulating ionized calcium concentration. Thus, extracellular calcium, by means of the parathyroid calcium-sensing receptor, is able to modulate inflammation-mediated resorption.
