Corticofugal modulation of the information processing in the auditory thalamus of the cat

Summary Single unit activity of 355 cells was recorded in the auditory thalamus of anesthetized cats before, during, and after the inactivation by cooling of the ipsilateral primary auditory cortex (AI). Most of the units (n = 288) showed similar functional characteristics of firing before and after the cryogenic blockade of AI. The spontaneous firing rate remained unchanged by cooling in 20% of the units and decreased in the majority of them (60%). In some regions, i.e. dorsal division of the medial geniculate body (MGB), lateral part of the posterior group of the thalamus, and auditory sector of the reticular nucleus of the thalamus, the maximum firing rate evoked by white noise bursts was generally affected by cooling in the same direction and to the same extent as the spontaneous activity. Units in the ventral division of MGB showed a characteristic increase of signal-to-noise ratio during cortical cooling. The corticofugal modulation led to the appearance or disappearance of the best frequency of tuning in 51 units and changed it by more than 0.5 octave in 34 units. The bandwidths of different response patterns to pure tones stimulation were used to define a set of functional properties. During cryogenic blockade of AI, two cortically modulated sub-populations of units were usually distinguished that exhibited changes for a given functional property. The complexity and diversity of the effects of cortical inactivation suggest that the corticothalamic projection may be the support for selective operations such as an adaptive filtering of the incoming acoustic signal at the thalamic level adjusted as a function of cortical activity.

Left thoracotomy approach in reoperative off-pump coronary revascularization

Objective: Reoperative coronary bypass grafting is at high risk. Particularly in redo cases where the patent graft is running near the midline of the sternum, the graft may be exposed to injury by a median sternotomy and subsequent dissection. Whereas, off-pump bypass grafting from the left axillary artery or descending thoracic artery by a left thoracotomy approach is safe for preventing graft damage.Methods: From March 1998 to February 2002, we performed off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting by a left thoracotomy approach in 9 patients. The left axillary artery was used as the inflow vessel in 4 cases, and the descending thoracic, aorta in 5.Results: The radial artery was anastomosed proximally to the axillary artery in 4 cases and the descending thoracic aorta in one case. The saphenous vein graft was anastomosed, proximally to the descending thoracic aorta in 4 cases. Transdiaphragmatic minimally invasive bypass grafting for the right coronary artery was simultaneously performed in 3 cases. Postoperative cardiac events were ventricular arrhythmia in 6 cases and supraventricular arrhythmia in 3 cases. There was no damage to the patent grafts. Postoperative coronary angiography performed, in 8 cases revealed all the grafts to be patent without stenosis. Cardiac symptoms were not found after the operation in any of the cases.Conclusions: These procedures can prevent the injury to patent grafts caused by a median sternotomy, and will be one of the useful strategies for reoperative off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting.     

Does Epidural Analgesia Affect the Rate of Spontaneous Obstetric Lacerations in Normal Births?

The precise relationship between epidural use and genital tract lacerations in normal childbirth is unclear. Data from a clinical trial on measures to lower genital tract trauma in vaginal birth were used for a secondary analysis. The goal was to assess whether epidurals affect the rate of spontaneous obstetric lacerations in normal vaginal births. Maternal characteristics and intrapartum variables were compared in women who did and did not use an epidural in labor, and also in those with and without any sutured lacerations following vaginal birth. Variables that were statistically different in both cases were entered into regression equations for simultaneous adjustment. Epidural use was not an independent predictor of sutured lacerations. Predictors of sutured lacerations included nulliparity, a prolonged second stage, being non-Hispanic white, and an infant birthweight greater than 4000 grams. Elements of midwifery management need further research.     

Dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin system in type 1 patients with diabetic nephropathy.

BACKGROUND: Albuminuria and hypertension are predictors of poor renal and cardiovascular outcome in patients with diabetes. Approximately 30% of type 1 patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN) have albuminuria >1 g/day, and blood pressure >135 and/or >85 mmHg despite antihypertensive therapy with recommended doses of ACE inhibitor (ACEI) and diuretics. We tested the effect of dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in these patients. METHODS: We performed a randomised double blind crossover trial with 2 months treatment with Irbesartan 300 mg o.d. and placebo added on top of previous antihypertensive treatment. We included 21 type 1 patients with DN responding insufficiently to ACEI and diuretics, as defined above. At the end of each treatment period, albuminuria, 24-h blood pressure and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) were measured. RESULTS: Addition of 300 mg Irbesartan to the patients' usual antihypertensive therapy induced a mean reduction in albuminuria of 37% (95% CI 20-49, P<0.001); from 1574 mg/24 h (95% CI 1162-2132) to 996 mg/24 h (95% CI 699-1419), a reduction in 24-h blood pressure of 8 mmHg systolic (95% CI -2 to 18) and 5 mmHg diastolic (95% CI 1-9) (P=0.11 and 0.01, respectively) (from placebo, mean (SE) 146 (4)/80 (2) mmHg). GFR remained unchanged. Serum potassium increased (mean 4.3 to 4.6 mmol/l, P=0.02). Intervention to reduce serum potassium was needed in two patients with GFR <35 ml/min/1.73 m(2). Otherwise the dual blockade with Irbesartan was safe and well tolerated. CONCLUSIONS: Dual blockade of the RAS may offer additional renal and cardiovascular protection in type 1 patients with DN responding insufficiently to conventional antihypertensive therapy, including recommended doses of ACEI and diuretics.     

硬膜外阻滞的镇静作用及其可能机制

目的 通过监测脑电双频指数和心率变异功率谱,评价硬膜外麻醉后对异丙酚镇静催眠剂量的影响,并探讨其可能的机制。方法 50例行全子宫切除病人,随机分为硬膜外利多卡因组（GE,n=15）;硬膜外盐水-静脉利多卡因组（GI=15）;硬膜外盐水-静脉盐水组（GC=20）。硬膜外或静脉给利多卡因 20 min后,连续输注异丙酚至神志消失并记录异丙酚用量。所有病人同时监测脑电双频谱（BIS）、心率变异高频功率谱（HF）、低频功率谱（LF）、心电图和血压。输注异丙酚前抽取桡动脉血 2ml,测定血浆利多卡因浓度。结果 病人意识消失时异丙酚用量分别为GE组（1.22±0.25）mg/kg;GI组（1.62±0.22）mg/kg;GC组（1.85±0.41）mg/kg（GE与GI和GC比,P<0.05）。GE组和 GI组血浆利多卡因浓度分别为 3.04 μg/ml和 2.45 μg/ml,无统计学差异。三组病人意识消失时BIS平均值分别为54.4、57.1、55.3。结论 硬膜外利多卡因阻滞可降低异丙酚用量约35％。其作用机制与利多卡因自硬膜外吸收后的中枢镇静作用无明显关系,而可能与硬膜外阻滞后间接引起中枢兴奋阈值降低有关。     

Central cardiovascular and oxygen variables during haemorrhage in the pig

Background: We evaluated the ability of the standards issued by the Danish Society of Anaesthesiologists to reflect a blood loss.
Methods: In 9 pigs bled (0–24 ml kg^-1) and retransfused (to 28 ml kg^-1) during halothane anaesthesia, central cardiovascular, thoracic electrical impedance (TI), oxygen, acid-base and temperature variables were recorded.
Results: With the recommendation for minor surgery (mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR)), the correlation to the blood loss was 0.74 ( P < 0.001) and with that for major surgery (MAP, HR, central venous pressure (CVP) and rectal temperature (Temp_r)) it was 0.79 ( P < 0.001). With the recommendation for extensive surgery (MAP, HR, CVP, pulmonary artery catheter variables and the central-peripheral temperature difference (ΔTemp_r-t)), the correlation was 0.84 ( P < 0.001). Non-invasive monitoring (MAP, HR, ΔTemp_r-t TI and near-infrared spectroscopy of the brain (S_invosO₂)) was only slightly better than basal monitoring (r=0.76, P < 0.001). However, adding arterial base excess (BE), TI and peripheral temperature (Temp_t) to the recommendation for major surgery resulted in a correlation of 0.87 ( P < 0.001), while adding BE and TI to the recommendation for extensive surgery raised correlation to only 0.88 ( P < 0.001).
Conclusion: When the recommendations were followed the correlation to the blood loss ranged from 0.74–0.84. However, with the recording of MAP, HR, CVP, ΔTemp_r-t, BE and TI a correlation of 0.87 was achieved, indicating that a pulmonary artery catheter may not be in need for patients undergoing surgical procedures with expected haemorrhage.
