Influence of moderate hypothermia on cerebral oxygenation in pigs with intracranial hypertension

BACKGROUND: Moderate hypothermia is one of the effective therapeutic methods for head injury in recent years, there are many mechanisms of moderate hypothermia for brain protection, and its influence on cerebral oxygenation is also one of them. OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of moderate hypothermia on cerebral oxygenation of animals with acute intracranial hypertension, and further investigate the protective mechanism of moderate hypothermia. DESIGN: A randomized controlled trial. SETTING: Department of Neurosurgery, Renji Hospital affiliated to the Medical College of Shanghai Jiao Tong University. MATERIALS: Twenty healthy little pigs, either male or female, weighing 4.5–5.5 kg, were used. Neurotrend-typed multiparameter monitoring system (Diametrics Company, British); CMA/100 micro-injection pump (Carnegie Company, Sweden). METHODS: The experiment was conducted in the Changzheng Hospital affiliated to the Second Military Medical University of Chinese PLA in November, 2001. The pigs were randomized into two groups: the normothermia group (control group, n =10) and moderate hypothermia group (n =10). ① Bilateral femoral arteries were separated, one was connected to pressometer for monitoring mean arterial pressure (MEP), and the other for analysis of blood gases [including peripheral blood pH value, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), HCO3–]. ② Rectal temperature was monitored with mercurial thermometer. ③ Intracranial pressure was monitored using Camino optic ICP probe placed in the subdural space. ④ Neurotrend multiparameter monitoring sensor was inserted into the white matter for about 4 cm to determine cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP, CPP=MAP(ICP), brain tissue partial oxygen pressure (PO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2), HCO3– and brain temperature. The rectal temperature of animals in the moderate hypothermia group was lowered to 34 ℃ using ice bags, and the body temperature was maintained at 33–35 ℃ for 2 hours. The changes of the parameters were observed continuously, and the pigs in the normothermia group were not treated with cooling. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① MAP, ICP, rectal temperature, CCP; Indexes of cerebral oxygenation detected with Neurotrend-typed multiparameter monitoring system; ② Results of blood gases analysis in the moderate hypothermia group. RESULTS: All the 20 pigs were involved in the analysis of results. ① MAP, ICP, rectal temperature, CCP and indexes of cerebral oxygenation: In the moderate hypothermia group, the ICP after cooling was obviously lower than that before cooling [(3.31±1.19), (5.33±0.95) kPa, P < 0.05], CCP was higher, brain tissue PCO2 [(12.03±1.73), (10.59±2.01) kPa, P < 0.05], and brain tissue pH value was higher [(7.03±1.63), (9.40±1.30) kPa, P < 0.05], whereas the brain temperature was decreased as compared with that before cooling [(34.9±0.3), (37.2±0.2) ℃, P < 0.05]. ② Results of blood gases analysis in the moderate hypothermia group: There were no significant differences in the parameters of peripheral arterial blood gases analysis before and after cooling in the moderate hypothermia group (P > 0.05) CONCLUSION: Moderate hypothermia will not impair the cerebral oxygenation, and it can reduce brain tissue CO2 and decrease brain tissue acidosis.     

Pharmacology of the internal anal sphincter and its relevance to faecal incontinence

1 The internal anal sphincter (IAS) has a spontaneous tone and is the main contributor to the maintenance of faecal continence. The spontaneous resting tone exhibited by the sphincter can be modified by neurotransmitters from the autonomic and enteric nervous systems. 2 In this review, the influence of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems on IAS tone are discussed and the putative roles of nitric oxide, carbon monoxide, vasoactive intestinal peptide and adenosine triphosphate in non‐adrenergic non‐cholinergic transmission are considered. 3 Faecal incontinence is a common condition that places a heavy financial burden on the health service and severely affects patients’ quality of life. Resting anal pressure is reduced in patients with faecal incontinence and agents that increase sphincter tone tend to relieve symptoms. The results of clinical studies of the use of phenylephrine to treat faecal incontinence are reviewed. 4 It is concluded that the IAS is a potential target for drug development for the treatment of faecal incontinence.     

ES05ROUTINE PARAFIBROMIN IMMUNOHISTOCHEMISTRY OF LARGE PARATHYROID ADENOMAS IS NOT AN EFFECTIVE SCREENING STRATEGY FOR CARCINOMA

Purpose Parathyroid carcinoma (PC) is rare and accounts for less than 1% of all cases of primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT). The definitive histopathologic diagnosis of PC requires unequivocal invasion or metastasis which may be absent at first presentation. As a result, many cases of PC can only be diagnosed retrospectively. Parafibromin is the protein encoded by HRPT2 which is mutated and not expressed in many parathyroid carcinomas. Given that PCs generally weigh more than parathyroid adenomas (PA)s, we hypothesized that amongst large PAs there may be a high incidence of occult PC which could be identified by negative staining for parafibromin. Methodology 57 parathyroid glands weighing greater than 2 grams excised from 1998–2006 were identified from the University of Sydney Endocrine Surgical Database. Two specimens with a histopathologic diagnosis of PC were excluded. Immunohistochemical staining for parafibromin was performed on the remaining 55 PAs. Results Of the 55 specimens stained for parafibromin only one definite negative stain was detected. This case was originally classified as an “atypical adenoma” because it showed nuclear and architectural atypia without unequivocal evidence of invasive growth. In view of the negative staining for parafibromin it therefore probably represents occult carcinoma. There has been no evidence of recurrence or metastasis after 6.5 years. Conclusions Complete loss of staining for parafibromin is very rare in giant parathyroid adenomas suggesting that occult carcinoma is equally rare. As a result routine immunohistochemical staining for parafibromin does not appear to be an effective screening test for carcinoma in large PA without histopathologic features of PC.     

HP26PSEUDO‐ACHALASIA FOLLOWING A SLIPPED LAPAROSCOPICALLY PLACED ADJUSTABLE GASTRIC BAND: A CASE REPORT

Purpose To demonstrate that laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding may promote oesophageal dilatation or interfere with oesophageal motility. Methodology We report a case of a 67 year old female with a complex medical history who developed secondary achalasia from a slipped laparoscopic adjustable gastric band for weight loss. This led to recurring episodes of aspiration pneumonia requiring multiple admissions at North Shore Hospital, Auckland, New Zealand. Results A decision was made to remove the gastric band, five years after its initial insertion. At one month follow up, she was swallowing normally and oesophageal manometry had returned to normal. Conclusion Oesophageal dysmotility is sometimes seen in patients who have bands that are adjusted too tightly or in whom the band has slipped. This can lead to serious complications if unrecognized and incorrectly treated. Oesophageal symptoms in patients with adjustable bands must be considered secondary to the band until proven otherwise ie removal of the band or complete deflation.

The αvβ6 integrin plays a role in compromised epidermal wound healing

The alphavbeta6 integrin is an exclusively epithelial integrin that is highly expressed during fetal development. In adult tissue, alphavbeta6 integrin is expressed during inflammation, carcinogenesis, and in wound healing. We previously reported that alphavbeta6 integrin is highly expressed in poorly healing human wounds and its over-expression is associated with chronic wounds in a mouse model. The objective of this study was to investigate the role of alphavbeta6 integrin in compromised wound healing induced by hydrocortisone treatment or aging by using young and old mice deficient in or overexpressing the beta6 integrin subunit in the epidermis. Untreated aged beta6 integrin-deficient (beta6-/-) animals showed a significant delay in wound healing when compared to their age-matched controls or younger beta6-/- mice. The most significant delay was observed at the stages where granulation tissue deposition was occurring. Hydrocortisone treatment significantly delayed wound healing in wild-type and beta6 integrin-deficient mice in comparison with the untreated controls. However, hydrocortisone treatment in beta6 integrin overexpressing animals did not cause a significant delay in wound healing. The results of this study suggest that alphavbeta6 integrin plays an important role in wound healing in animals compromised by either age or stress mimicked by hydrocortisone.     

Correlates of lifetime suicide attempts among individuals with affective disorders in a Chinese rural community.

The aim of this study was to compare the demographic and clinical characteristics of individuals with affective disorders who had attempted suicide at some time in their lives and those who had not made a suicide attempt. In a Chinese rural community, individuals with suicide attempt (N = 30) and those without suicide attempt (N = 166) were assessed with Present State Examination (PSE). Attempters had a significantly higher level of family economic status, higher rate of lifetime depressed mood and hopelessness, and delusions than nonattempters. The logistic regression models also indicated that depressed mood and hopelessness were the most important predictors of suicide attempts. No significant difference in treatment condition was found between attempters and non-attempters. Early identification and interventions focusing on reducing depressed mood, hopelessness, and controlling psychotic symptoms may be helpful in reducing the risk of suicide attempts among individuals with affective disorders residing in the community.
