Blood flow acceleration in the carotid and brachial arteries of healthy volunteers: respective contributions of cardiac performance and local resistance

Summary— The influence of local resistance and cardiac performance on peripheral blood acceleration was investigated in 14 healthy male volunteers. Steady and pulsatile flow was studied in the brachial and in the common carotid arteries, ie, two territories that exhibit marked differences in resistive characteristics. Instantaneous blood velocity (V), mean blood velocity (V_m) and artery diameter (D) were evaluated at rest by an ultrasonic range-gated pulsed Doppler flowmeter using a double transducer probe, thus allowing the calculation of mean blood flow (Q). Mean local resistance (R) was obtained by dividing the mean arterial pressure by Q. The peak value of the local acceleration of the blood was obtained by computer-assisted calculation of the first derivative of instantaneous blood velocity (G_max = +dV/dt_max). Peak aortic blood acceleration (GAo) was simultaneously measured from the suprasternal notch using a pulsed Doppler velocity meter. In the brachial and the common carotid arteries, G_max was of a similar magnitude (551 ±30 and 555 ± 44 cm/s², respectively) despite major differences in the respective D, V_m, Q and R values. In neither artery was there a relationship between G_max and either resting Q or R. At the brachial artery level, G_max was positively related to GAo ( r = 0.79, P = 0.0008). At the common carotid artery level, there was a weak, although non significant relationship between G_max and GAo ( P = 0.08). Our results indicate that the local acceleration of peripheral blood flow in the brachial artery is related rather to upstream central impulse than to downstream hemodynamics, and suggest some regional differences in the hemodynamic determinants of the local acceleration of peripheral blood flow.     

流行性出血热若干体液因子和肾脏血液动力学的变化

对28例流行性出血热（EHF）患者作了体液因子和肾脏血液动力学的观察研究。发现患者从发热期至多尿初期血浆内皮素（ET）、血栓素B2（TXB2）、血管紧张素-Ⅱ（AT－Ⅱ）均高于正常，P物质（SP）则低于正常，6-酮前列腺素F1α（6-k-PGF1α）除极期外其它各期亦见减低，肾小球滤过率（GFR）与肾有效血浆流量（ERPF）从发热后期至多尿期均显著下降，至恢复初期多数重型患者仍未达到正常。上述结果提示体液因子的失衡是造成内脏缺血和急性肾衰的重要因素。     

尿毒症患者的性激素变化及其临床意义探讨

目的 :探讨女性尿毒症患者卵巢功能障碍的发病情况及其临床意义。方法 :应用酶免疫法 (EIA)测定了2 3例更年期前女性尿毒症非透析患者、15例透析患者及 2 9例健康献血者中促卵泡素 (FSH)、泌乳素 (PRL)、促黄体素 (LH)、雌二醇 (E2 )及孕酮 (P)的水平。结果 :尿毒症女患者PRL、FSH及LH均较健康对照组升高 ,而孕酮值显著降低 ,对此均有显著差异 ;且尿毒症女患者PRL升高、孕酮值降低与肾小球滤过率 (GFR)呈明显相关。透析患者较非透析患者PRL升高更为明显 ,孕酮值亦较非透析患者有所升高 ,但无显著意义。结论 :尿毒症女患者的排卵障碍及月经紊乱等都与尿毒症的严重程度相平行。透析并不能改善尿毒症女患者的卵巢功能障碍 ,只有纠正与改善肾功能 ,才能使尿毒症女患者的卵巢功能得以改善

Effects of buffering in hypercapnia and hypercapnic hypoxemia

Anesthetized, paralyzed and mechanically ventilated pigs were exposed to extreme hypercapnia (Paco_2-20 kPa) at Fio₂ 0.4 for 480 min, with (n = 6) or without (n = 6) continuous infusion of isotonic buffers (bicarbonate and trometamol). Arterial pH was higher in buffered animals than controls, 7.21 ±0.01 vs 7.01±0.01 (mean ± s.e.mean, P < 0.01). Serum osmolality and Paco₂ did not differ between groups throughout the experiment. The hemodynamic response to hypercapnia was attenuated in the buffered group, who had lower heart rate, 133 ± 6 vs 189±12 min^-1 (P < 0.01), mean arterial pressure (MAP) 109 ± 4 vs 124 ± 4 mmHg (14.5 ± 0.5 vs 16.5 ± 0.5 kPa) (P < 0.05), mean pulmonary arterial pressure 16±1 vs 23 ± 1 mmHg (2.1 ±0.1 vs 3.1 ±0.1 kPa) (P < 0.01), and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) 249 ± 21 vs 343 ± 20 dyn s-cm^-5 (2490±210 vs 3430±200 μN-s-cm^-5) (P < 0.01), compared with the control group. Subsequently, both groups were exposed to hypercapnic hypoxemia by stepwise increases in Fio₂ (0.15, 0.10, 0.05) at 30-min intervals, while Fico₂ was kept at 0.2. PVR increased in both groups (P < 0.05) but, except for heart rate, all hemodynamic differences between the groups disappeared during hypoxia. At Fio₂ 0.15, buffered animals had higher arterial oxygen saturation (73 ± 5%) than the controls (55 ± 5%), (P < 0.05). The control animals died after 1–29 min (mean 14 min) at Fio₂ 0.10, while all buffered animals survived Fio₂ 0.10 with stable MAP (122 ± 14 mmHg (16.3 ± 1.9 kPa). The buffered animals died after 4–22 min (mean 15 min) at Fio₂ 0.05. We conclude that buffering to a pH of 7.21 attenuates the observed hemodynamic response in extreme hypercapnia and improves survival in hypercapnic hypoxemia.

Effects of endotoxin on intestinal hemodynamics, glutamine metabolism, and function

The purpose of this study was to investigate the intestinal hemodynamics and gut glutamine metabolism during endotoxemia, and their correlation with altered intestinal absorptive capacity and permeability. Seventeen Sprague-Dawley rats were used in the study. The endotoxin group (ENDO) recieved endotoxin (10 mg/kg intraperitoneally,n=9), while the control group (CONT,n=8) received saline injection. Twelve hours later, D-xylose (0.5 g/kg) and fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (FITC-dextran, 750 mg/kg) were given by oral gavage. One hour later abdominal aortic (AA) blood flow, superior mesenteric venous (SMV) flow, mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), and SMV pressure (SMVP) were also measured. The MAP, AA, and SMV blood flow decreased (P<0.05), while the CVP and SMVP increased (P<0.05) in the ENDO group as compared with the CONT group. The ENDO group showed significant decreases for both intestinal glutaminase activity and net intestinal glutamine uptake (P<0.05). The D-xylose concentration in SMV decreased significantly (P<0.05) in the ENDO group as compared with the CONT group. However, the plasma FITC-dextran concentration showed no significant difference between the groups. Endotoxin produced a hypodynamic effect in rats 12h after intraperitoneal administration in association with both a decreased intestinal glutamine metabolism and an absorptive capacity.
