The mediating role of coagulation factor VIII in the effect of chronic inflammation on recurrent thrombotic events in children with non-central line deep vein thrombosis
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Introduction Pediatric patients who had a first venous thromboembolic event are at risk of experiencing a thrombosis recurrence, which in turn is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Thus, predicting recurrence is relevant for clinical management. In a previous study, we have shown that chronic inflammation independently predicted recurrent thrombotic events in children with an index non-central venous catheter (non-CVC) related deep vein thrombosis (DVT). In that study, coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) did not predict thrombosis recurrence. However, FVIII is an acute phase protein that can be increased in the context of inflammatory conditions. Therefore we investigated the extent to which the effect of chronic inflammation on the outcome of thrombosis recurrence is mediated by FVIII. Method Children aged 0-18 years diagnosed with an index non-CVC related DVT between 1993-2020 were included in this single-center retrospective cohort study. Ethics approval was obtained. The primary outcome was thrombosis recurrence as per ISTH definitions. Two chart reviewers independently assessed the underlying conditions of each child and adjudicated whether there was an underlying chronic inflammatory condition present. FVIII was measured≥30 days after acute DVT diagnosis. Regression-based causal mediation analysis was conducted to assess the extent to which the effect of chronic inflammation on the outcome of thrombosis recurrence was mediated by FVIII ([ Fig. 1 ]), adjusting for sex and age at the time of the index DVT. Blood group was included in an exploratory mediation analysis. The natural indirect effect, natural direct effect, total effect, and proportion mediated were calculated and measured on the odds ratio scale. Fig. 1 Mediation Analysis ; Direct acyclic graph of the assumed causal effects between underlying diseases with chronic inflammation (exposure) on recurrent thrombosis (outcome) through factor VIII (mediator). The natural indirect effect, natural direct effect, and total effect are depicted by arrows. Their effect size is shown on the Odds ratio scale with 95% confidence intervals. The proportion mediated by FVIII reduced the total effect by 2%. Covariates: sex, age; Legend: Factor VIII (FVIII), Odds Ratio (OR), Confidence Interval (CI) Results A total of 139 children with an index non-CVC related DVT were included. Of these, 39 (28%) children had a recurrent thrombosis at a median of 206 days (P25-75 56-642 days) after the index DVT. Demographics and clinical characteristics are shown in [ Fig. 2 ].

Chronic inflammation had a significant total effect and a significant natural direct effect on recurrent thrombosis, with no evidence of mediation by FVIII (natural indirect effect). The proportion mediated indicated that FVIII reduced the total effect by 2%. When adding blood group as a covariate in exploratory analysis, the results of the mediation analysis did not change (data not shown) [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] [ 9 ]. Conclusion Mediation analysis showed no evidence that factor VIII acts as a mediator in the effect of chronic inflammation on recurrent thrombosis. Hence, assessing the presence or absence of underlying conditions with chronic inflammation was more informative than measuring factor VIII to predict the outcome of recurrent thrombosis in children with non-central venous catheter-related thrombosis. These findings have implications for clinical practice. Acknowledgements: A.B. was supported by the Rudolf-Marx-Research-Grant of the German Society for Thrombosis and Haemostasis Research e.V.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
