Introduction: Inflammatory response (IR) is a fundamental reaction to the cell and tissue injury. It is aimed at correcting the pathologic condition and maintaining the structural and functional integrity of the organism. The insult with too extensive or prolonged effect can lead to dysregulation of IR to the systemic level. Major abdominal surgery (MAS) can be considered as a potentially significant insult. Alarmins are endogenous, intracellular proteins that are passively or actively released upon the cell injury to extracellular space where they express their bioactive effect. Alarmins has therefore potential reflect the degree of surgical injury. Purpose: The main goal of the study was elucidating the role of selected alarmins in inflammatory response after MAS. The secondary aims were: 1) determining the relationship between alarmins and outcome prediction, 2) to determine relationship of alarmins and place of surgical intervention, 3) to determine correlation between alarmins and some of the surgery characteristics, e.g. length of surgery, blood loss, and intraoperative fluid load, 4) compare injury caused by laparoscopy and open surgery reflected by alarmins, and 5) to confirm previous results by determining the role of alarmins in surgical injury in subgroup of patients undergoing colorectal...
