Morphine Preconditions Purkinje Cells against Cell Death under In Vitro Simulated Ischemia-Reperfusion Conditions

Background: Morphine pretreatment via activation of [delta]1-opioid receptors induces cardioprotection. In this study, the authors determined whether morphine preconditioning induces ischemic tolerance in neurons.

Methods: Cerebellar brain slices from adult Sprague-Dawley rats were incubated with morphine at 0.1-10 [mu]m in the presence or absence of various antagonists for 30 min. They were then kept in morphine- and antagonist-free buffer for 30 min before they were subjected to simulated ischemia (oxygen-glucose deprivation) for 20 min. After being recovered in oxygenated artificial cerebrospinal fluid for 5 h, they were fixed for morphologic examination to determine the percentage of undamaged Purkinje cells.

Results: The survival rate of Purkinje cells was significantly higher in slices preconditioned with morphine (>= 0.3 [mu]m) before the oxygen-glucose deprivation (57 +/- 4% at 0.3 [mu]m morphine) than that of the oxygen-glucose deprivation alone (39 +/- 3%, P < 0.05). This morphine preconditioning-induced neuroprotection was abolished by naloxone, a non-type-selective opioid receptor antagonist, by naltrindole, a selective [delta]-opioid receptor antagonist, or by 7-benzylidenenaltrexone, a selective [delta]1-opioid receptor antagonist. However, the effects were not blocked by the [mu]-, [kappa]-, or [delta]2-opioid receptor antagonists, [beta]-funaltrexamine, nor-binaltorphimine, or naltriben, respectively. Morphine preconditioning-induced neuroprotection was partially blocked by the selective mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate-sensitive potassium channel antagonist, 5-hydroxydecanoate, or the mitochondrial electron transport inhibitor, myxothiazol. None of the inhibitors used in this study alone affected the simulated ischemia-induced neuronal death.     

Decrement of the skin conductance response to repeated volitional inspiration.

OBJECTIVE: To examine response decrement of the recently reported inspiratory skin conductance response (SCR) [Lim CL, Seto-Poon M, Clouston PD, Morris JG. Sudomotor nerve conduction velocity and central processing time of the skin conductance response. Clin Neurophysiol 2003;114:2172-80]. METHODS: Twelve healthy adult volunteers performed 3 tasks (A) a control task of maintaining tidal breathing and then two randomized tasks, (B) a deep inspiration to a target oral pressure and (C) tapping with a finger. Each task was performed 30 times on cue every 20s in 3 runs with 5 min of rest between runs. The SCR, oral pressure, airflow, inspired volume and cue signal were recorded continuously and analysed offline. SCR amplitude was logarithmically transformed and then statistically analysed, using a linear mixed effects model, as a function of run number, trial number and absolute error between target and actual oral pressures. RESULTS: Inspiratory efforts elicited exponentially decreasing SCR amplitude with increasing trial number during each run (P < 0.0001). After adjusting for trial number, the mean SCR amplitude of the second and the third run were, respectively, 24.2 (95% CI (0.175, 0.336), P < 0.001) and 14.4% (95% CI (0.104, 0.200), P < 0.001) of the first run amplitude. CONCLUSIONS: Volitional deep inspiration reliably activates an SCR that exhibits response decrement with repetition, which may be habituation. SIGNIFICANCE: The volitional inspiratory SCR may assist in the assessment of sympathetic autonomic status in patients with peripheral afferent neuropathy.

Do commonly used oral antihypertensives alter fetal or neonatal heart rate characteristics? A systematic review.

OBJECTIVE: To examine fetal (FHR) and neonatal heart rate patterns following use of common oral antihypertensives in pregnancy. METHODS: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs), observational studies (N >/= 6 women), and animal studies. Data were abstracted (two reviewers) to determine relative risk (RR) (or risk difference (RD) for low event rates) and 95% CI. RESULTS: Eighteen RCTs (1858 women), one controlled observational study (N = 22), and seven case series (N = 117) were reviewed. Most hypertension was pregnancy-induced (N = 14 studies). The FHR was assessed by cardiotocogram (CTG) (N = 17 studies (visual interpretation); 1 study (computerized CTG), or umbilical artery velocimetry (N = 4). Four studies examined neonatal heart rate. In placebo-controlled RCTs (N = 192 women), adverse FHR effects did not differ between groups [9/101 (drugs) vs. 7/91 (placebo); RD 0.02, 95% CI (- 0.06, 0.11); chi2 = 1.02]. In six drug vs. drug RCTs (295 women), adverse FHR effects did not differ between groups [29/144 (methyldopa) vs. 42/151 (other drugs); RR 0.72, 95% CI (0.49, 1.07); chi2 = 0.69]. In one labetalol vs. placebo trial, neonatal bradycardia did not differ between groups [4/70 (labetalol) vs. 4/74 (placebo); OR 1.06, 95% CI (0.26, 4.39)], while in three drug vs. drug RCTs, neonatal bradycardia was not observed (0/24 vs. 0/26). CONCLUSIONS: Available data are inadequate to conclude whether oral methyldopa, labetalol, nifedipine, or hydralazine adversely affect fetal or neonatal heart rate and pattern. Until definitive data are available, FHR changes cannot be reliably attributed to drug effect, but may be due to progression of the underlying maternal or placental disease.

多层螺旋CT对冠状动脉粥样硬化斑块的显示结果及与超声结果的比较

目的评价多层螺旋CT（MSCT）探查无明显管腔狭窄的冠状动脉粥样硬化斑块的能力及准确性。方法共35例连续患者行冠状动脉内超声（IVUS）及16层MSCT检查，其中30例MSCT成像成功。对94支无明显狭窄的冠状动脉节段MSCT及IVUS图像行对照研究，逐一分析每支冠状动脉节段是否出现粥样硬化斑块。IVUS根据斑块回声特点将斑块分为钙化斑块、纤维斑块和软斑块，MSCT则测量斑块密度，以CT值表示。结果对照IVUS结果，MSCT对出现任何粥样硬化斑块节段的诊断敏感性为82．1％（46／56），特异性为89．5％（34／38）。对于含钙化斑块的节段，MSCT诊断敏感性为92．1％（35／38），特异性为96．4％（54／56）。对于含非钙化斑块的节段，MSCT诊断敏感性为73．2％（30／41），特异性为88．7％（47／53）。对于仅含非钙化斑块的节段，MSCT诊断敏感性为66．7％（12／18）。MSCT分析54个斑块平均CT值，按照IVUS分类，钙化斑块19个，纤维斑块19个，软斑块16个，对应CT值分别为：钙化斑块（489±169）HU（196～817HU），纤维斑块（69±21）HU（25～117HU）以及软斑块（23±18）HU（-12～47HU）。非参数Kruskal-Wallis检验显示3组斑块MSCT测量密度CT值间差异有统计学意义（P值均〈0．01）；两种方法对斑块面积的测量具有相关性（r=0．58，P〈0．01），MSCT测定斑块平均面积为5．3mm^2，IVUS为5．6mm^2。结论MSCT对无明显管腔狭窄的冠状动脉粥样硬化斑块有良好的探查能力。根据斑块密度（CT值）差异，MSCT能区分不同类型冠状动脉粥样斑块。对斑块面积测量，MSCT与IVUS结果具有相关性。
