| Core Tip |
This randomized controlled trial demonstrates that perioperative dexmedetomidine (DEX) infusion attenuates vascular endothelial glycocalyx degradation (as evidenced by reduced syndecan-1 and heparan sulfate levels) and suppresses systemic inflammation in patients undergoing gastrointestinal tumor resection. These mechanistic benefits were associated with improved microcirculatory perfusion, reduced postoperative complications, and enhanced recovery, including shorter hospital stay. The study identifies syndecan-1 as a potential biomarker for perioperative risk stratification and supports the integration of DEX as an endothelial-protective adjunct within Enhanced Recovery after Surgery protocols for oncologic surgery. |
