Blockade of pulmonary stretch receptors reinforces diaphragmatic activity during high-frequency oscillatory ventilation

During apneic periods elicited by high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) a tonic diaphragmatic activity was observed, contrasting with the absence of diaphragmatic activity during apnea induced by lung inflation. To clarify the mechanism underlying the persistence of the diaphragmatic activity during HFOV-induced arrest of breathing the reflex responses to short periods of HFOV, and to periods of lung inflation with airway pressure (P _aw) equal to the meanP _aw and/or to maximalP _aw during HFOV were examined both before and after the blockade of slowly adapting stretch receptors (SR) by inhalation of sulphur dioxide (SO₂) in anaesthetized rabbits. In animals with intact SR, the HFOV-induced reflex apnea lasted longer than that induced by lung inflation, the associated diaphragmatic activity being in the most cases higher than the diaphragmatic activity during quiet expiration; inflation, however, completely inhibited diaphragmatic activity. After blockade of SR, spontaneous breathing continued during periods of lung inflation, i.e., the Hering-Breuer inflation reflex was abolished, whereas HFOV still led to a cessation of spontaneous breathing, the associated diaphragmatic activity even exceeding the level observed during quiet inspiration. From these results we conclude that only one part of the reflex response to HFOV is due to SR-stimulation and that in addition other vagal pulmonary receptors (irritant-and/or C-fibre-receptors) are involved. The stimulation of the latter counterbalances the concomitant stimulation of SR, giving rise to the tonic activity of the diaphragm.     

Modulation of visual cortical excitability in migraine with aura: effects of 1 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation

Recent studies showed hyperexcitability of the occipital cortex in subjects affected by migraine with aura. It has been shown that 1 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) reduces excitability of visual cortex in normal subjects. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of low frequency (1 Hz) rTMS on visual cortical excitability by measuring changes in phosphene threshold (PT) in subjects with migraine with aura. Thirteen patients with migraine with aura and 15 healthy controls were examined. Using a standardized transcranial magnetic stimulation protocol of the occipital cortex, we assessed the PT (the lowest magnetic stimulation intensity at which subjects just perceived phosphenes) before and after a 1-Hz rTMS train delivered at PT intensity for 15 min. The difference in the proportion of subjects reporting phosphenes in migrainer and control groups was significant (migrainers: 100% vs controls 47%; P<0.05), and 1 Hz rTMS over the occipital cortex led to a significantly increased visual cortex excitability expressed as a decrease in PT in subjects affected by migraine with aura. Conversely, after a 1-Hz TMS train normal subjects showed increased PT values, which suggests a decreased visual cortex excitability. Our findings confirm that the visual cortex is hyperexcitable in migrainers and suggest a failure of inhibitory circuits, which are unable to be upregulated by low frequency rTMS.     

Numerical simulation of aerosol particle transport by oscillating flow in respiratory airways

Particle transport by oscillating flow in a tapered channel or in a tapered tube was computed from the complete equations of motion. These geometries represent a simplified model of the divergent flow field of the mammalian bronchial tree. The computed deformation profile of a line of particles, transported by the oscillatory motion, was compared with prior experimental results and analytical calculations. All three methods agree that there is transport in the divergent direction of the tube by an axial stream of steady drift in the core for moderately high frequency of oscillation (Womersley parameter in the range of 1 to 10). Bidirectional flow is established by an annular stream in the convergent direction, with no net flow on integral cycles of the oscillating fluid. At higher frequency, however, the steady stream transforms to a different shape in the tapered tube, with transport in the divergent direction nearer the walls of the tube, rather than in the core. Transport by the continuing streams with oscillatory ventilation of the respiratory tract should deliver medicinal aerosols of low intrinsic particle mobility to the peripheral regions of the lungs.

目的观察高频重复经颅磁刺激(rTMS)联合认知行为治疗对脑卒中后焦虑(PSA)、脑卒中后抑郁(PSD)共病状态患者的影响。 方法采用随机数字表法将160例脑卒中后焦虑抑郁状态患者分为对照组和观察组。两组患者均给予脑卒中常规治疗、抗抑郁药物治疗和认知行为治疗,对照组同时给予高频rTMS假刺激治疗,观察组则给予高频rTMS真刺激治疗。观察4周后2组患者抑郁症状、焦虑症状、睡眠质量、日常生活能力改善情况。 结果两组患者汉密尔顿抑郁量表(HAMD)评分、汉密尔顿焦虑量表(HAMA)评分、匹兹堡睡眠指数量表(PSQI)、改良Barthel指数(MBI)在治疗前差异无统计学意义(P均>0.05)。治疗4周后,对照组和观察组的HAMD评分、HAMA评分、PSQI较治疗前下降,差异有统计学意义(P均<0.05),其中观察组下降更为明显,与对照组相比,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。对照组和观察组MBI与治疗前相比,均有明显提高,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),而观察组和对照组相比,观察组分数提高更显著,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。观察组治疗有效率为87.50%,高于对照组的71.25%。两组之间差异有统计学意义(Uc＝－3.45,P<0.001)。 结论高频rTMS治疗联合认知行为治疗和认知行为治疗均能有效改善PSA+PSD患者的焦虑抑郁症状、睡眠质量及日常生活能力,但高频rTMS治疗联合认知行为治疗的效果更加明显。     

High-frequency ventilation and conventional mechanical ventilation in newborn babies with respiratory distress syndrome: A prospective,randomized trial

Objective Morbidity and mortality remain high amongst babies ventilated for a respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). Whether newly developed ventilators allowing high frequency ventilation such as high frequency flow interrupted ventilation (HFFIV) could decrease the morbidity and the mortality was investigated in a randomized study.Design Preterm babies weighing 1800g suffering from RDS and ventilated by conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) were randomized to be further ventilated either by CMV (group CMV) or by HFFIV (group HFFIV) when peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) on CMV was 20cmH₂O.Setting The study was undertaken in the neonatal intensive care unit of the Erasmus Hospital.Patients 24 patients entered into the investigation and were randomized but 2 patients were removed from the study because the switch over to HFFIV failed. Eight of the 12 CMV patients and 5 of the 10 HFFIV patients completed the study.Measurements and results Clinical variables, blood gas analysis and ventilatory variables were looked at. There were no differences in mortality, in incidence of air leaks and pulmonary complications or in blood gas analysis. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia was not decreased by the use of HFFIV.Conclusion It is concluded that HFFIV is safe although it offers no concrete advantages over CMV when applied as we did in a low pressure approach.     

Evaluation of high-frequency jet ventilation in oxygenation through an artificial membrane lung

The membrane oxygenator often develops impaired gas exchange after prolonged use because plasma proteins adhere to the membrane's surface and leak through its micropores. This study was performed to examine the efficacy of high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) in minimizing these problems in a "flat plate" type of membrane oxygenator. We first vibrated the membrane of the oxygenator by HFJV from 1 to 10 Hz to find the frequency most effective for optimal gas exchange in animals with partial extracorporeal circulation. These studies suggested that 6 Hz HFJV was preferable in our model. We subsequently performed in vivo extracorporeal oxygenation in dogs for 8 h using the membrane oxygenator with or without 6 Hz HFJV. Although the gas exchange capacity within the first 8 h was similar in the two groups, after 6 h a significant decrease in the red blood cell count and in the hematocrit was found in the group not receiving HFJV. Scanning electron microscopic examination of the membranes after 8 h of use disclosed that the membrane from the group receiving HFJV had less plasma protein and fibrin adhesion than that from the group not receiving HFJV. Moreover, it appears that with prolonged extracorporeal oxygenation, 6 Hz HFJV also protects against a decrease in the hematocrit of the passed blood and might lead to enhanced gas exchange. Our data suggest that good gas exchange can be maintained for periods even longer than 8 h if HFJV is used in conjunction with the membrane oxygenator.
