ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effects of therapy with small volume of different fluids on renal blood flow in endotoxemia rats.Methods Thirty parthogen-free SD rats weighing 180-250 g were randomly divided into 5 groups (n = 6 each):group Ⅰ control; group Ⅱ LPS; group Ⅲ LPS + 7.5 % hypertonic saline (HS);group Ⅳ LPS + hydrozyethly starch (HES) 130/0.4 and groupⅤ LPS + hypertonic saline plus hydroxyethly starch (HS-HES) 40. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 3% pentobarbital 40 mg/kg. Left carotid artery was cannulated for BP and HR monitoring and fluid administration. In groupⅡ-Ⅴ LPS 1 mg/kg was administered via arterial cannula. In group Ⅲ, Ⅳ and V 4 ml/kg of 7.5% HS, HES 130/0.4 AND HS-HES 40 were administered via arterial cannula respectively at 30 min after LPS administration.In groupⅠ and Ⅱ normal saline 4 ml/kg was given insteadt. Renal blood flow was measured with Doppler ultrasound before LPS (T1 ,baseline), at 30 min after LPS (T2), 10, 30 and 60 min after fluid therapy (T3, T4, T5). The animals were then sacrificed and both kidneys were removed for microscopic examination with light microscope. Results Renal blood flow was significantly decreased and was significantly recovered to some extent by therapy with different fluids especially with HS-HES 40 in group Ⅴ. Conclusion Therapy with small volume of HS,HES or HS-HES could increase renal blood flow and inprove renal microcirculation especially HS-HES.
ABSTRACT
[Objective]This study was designed to investigate the effects of small volume resuscitation with different fluids on the lung of endotoxie rats.[Methods]Thirty SD rats weighting 180-250 g were divided randomly into 5 groups(n=6):Group C[lipopolysaccharide(LPS)negative control group],Group E(LPS+4 mL/kg physiologic saline),Group HSS(LPS+4 mL/kg 75 g/L hypertonic saline solution),Group HES(LPS+4 mL/kg hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4),Group HSH(LPS+4 mL/kg 75 g/L hypertonic sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch 40).Resuscitation was administrated 30 min after LPS injected.Pathological examination and score were made under optical microscope.Dry/wet ratios were observed.Levels of total protein of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were measured.Thibabituric acid(TBA)was used to measure tissue malonaldehyde(MDA)levels.Xanthine oxidase(XO)was employed to measure the tissue activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD).[Results]Compared with group C,in the other 4 groups,pathological changes were server.Levels of total protein of BALF were higher(P＜0.05).Pathological score of group E was significantly higher(P＜0.01).Dry/wet ratio of group E was lower(P＜0.05).Tissue activity of SOD of group E was lower(P＜0.01).Levels of tissue MDA in group E and HSS were significantly higher.Compared with group E,in group HSS,HES and HSH,pathological changes were slighter(P＜0.01).Pathological scores and tissue MDA levels were lower(P＜0.01).Dry/wet ratios were higher(P＜0.05).Tissue activity of SOD were higher(P＜0.01),levels of total protein of BALF were lower(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).[Conclusion]Small volume resuscitation with HSS,HES,and HSH had protective effects on the lung of endotoxie rats.HES and HSH had better effect on decreasing the capillary permeability of the lung of endotoxic rats lung compared with HSS.
ABSTRACT
AIM: To observe the influence of the selective decontamination of the digestive tract (SDD) and caecosomy/colonic irrigation on gut endotoxin/bacteria translocation following acute severe pancreatitis (ASP). METHODS: Twenty three pigs weighing 16-22 kg were divided into four groups. Group I (n=5): sham-control; Group Ⅱ (n=6): ASP-control; Group Ⅲ (n=6): gntamicin [(8.55?10~5?5.70?10~4) units/time] and nystatin [(1.37?10~5?9.00?10~3) units/time] were fed orally every 8 h for 1 week before the induction of ASP; Group Ⅳ (n=6): caecostomy was performed before the induction of ASP. ASP was induced by infecting 1 mL/kg BW of combined solution of 5% sodium taurocholate and (8-10)?10~6 BAEE units/L of trypsin into pancreas via pancreatic duct. Systemic plasma endotoxin levels were quantified by the chromogenic limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) technique. Specimens of tissue from mesenteriolum and mesocolon lymph nodes, lung, lymph nodes in hilus pulmonis, pancreas and the samples of both portal and systemic blood were collected before and at 72 h following ASP and cultured for aerobic as well as anaerobic bacteria growth. Positive specimens were subcultured and the bacteria identified by standard procedure. RESULTS: Preventive SDD not only effectively reduced the amount of bacteria in stool (P
