ABSTRACT Cannulation strategies in aortic arch surgeries are a matter of immense discussion. Majority of time deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is the way out, but it does come with its set of demerits. Here we demonstrate a case with aortic arch dissection dealt with dual cannulation strategy in axillary and femoral artery without need for DHCA and ensuring complete neuroprotection of brain and spinal cord without hinderance of time factor. Inception of new ideas like this may decrease the need for DHCA and hence its drawbacks, thus decreasing the morbidity and mortality associated.

INTRODUCTION: Experimental evidence, as well as improved clinical studies of the reduction of brain injury and, improves the neurological outcome, in newborns with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) occurring in therapeutic hypothermia (TH). OBJECTIVE: To verify the potential of hypothermic hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) therapy in neonatal asphyxia, based on literature data, comparing the benefits between selective head cooling (SHC) and whole-body cooling (WBC), see that the use of TH as a standard treatment in newborns with moderate or severe HIE has been adopted. METHODS: A search was performed in the PubMed and SciELO databases of human studies, using the keywords "Therapeutic Hypothermia", "Induced Hypothermia", and "Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy", "Selective cooling of the head", "Total body cooling" and its variables. RESULTS: Eleven articles were selected to compose the review, after detailed reading. There is a consensus, that the reduction of the risk of death or disability at 18 months of life in neonates with moderate to severe HIE, occurs to TH through the techniques of WBC or SHC. It was found in the studies that there is no difference in terms of adverse effects between the two methods. As for radiological changes, such as hypoxic-ischemic injuries and the incidence of seizures after cooling, they are more frequent with SHC. CONCLUSION: Both WBC and SHC demonstrated neuroprotective properties, although WBC provides a broader area of brain protection. However, no significant differences were found between the methods in terms of adverse effects and beneficial short or long-term results.
INTRODUÇÃO: Evidências experimentais, assim como estudos clínicos, sugerem a redução da lesão cerebral e melhora do desfecho neurológico, em recém-nascidos com encefalopatia isquêmica hipóxica (EHI) submetidos à hipotermia terapêutica (HT). OBJETIVO: Verificar a potencialidade da terapia hipotérmica de encefalopatia hipóxico-isquêmica (EHI) na asfixia neonatal, com base em dados da literatura, comparando os benefícios entre o resfriamento seletivo da cabeça (RSC) e o resfriamento de corpo inteiro (RCI), visto que o uso de hipotermia terapêutica (HT) como tratamento padrão em recém-nascidos com EHI moderada ou grave tem sido amplamente adotada. MÉTODOS: Foi realizada uma busca nas bases de dados PubMed e SciELO de estudos em humanos, utilizando-se as palavras-chave "Therapeutic Hypothermia", "Induced Hypothermia", "Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy", "selective head cooling", "whole body cooling" e suas respectivas variáveis. RESULTADOS: Foram selecionados 11 artigos para compor a revisão, após leitura detalhada. É consenso, a redução do risco de morte ou incapacidade aos 18 meses de vida nos neonatos com EHI moderado a grave, submetidos à HT através das técnicas de RCI ou RSC. Constatou-se diante dos estudos que não há diferença em termos de efeitos adversos entre os dois métodos. Quanto às alterações radiológicas, as lesões hipóxico-isquêmicas e incidência de convulsões após o resfriamento são mais frequentes com o RSC. CONCLUSÃO: Tanto RCI quanto o RSC demonstraram propriedades neuroprotetoras, embora o RCI proporcione uma área de proteção cerebral mais ampla. No entanto, não foram constatadas diferenças significativas entre os métodos quanto a efeitos adversos e a resultados benéficos em curto e longo prazo.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of hypothermic antegrade machine perfusion against canine ischemic brain injury.Methods:Thirteen beagle dogs were divided into the mild hypothermia with perfusion group ( n=6) and normothermia with perfusion group ( n=7) according to the random number table. The model of ischemic brain injury was established by neck transection. After 1 hour of ischemic circulatory arrest, the perfusion fluid based on autologous blood was continuously perfused through bilateral common carotid artery for 6 hours. The temperature of the perfusion fluid was set at 33 ℃ in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group and 37℃ in the normothermia with perfusion group, respectively. Blood oxygen saturation was recorded at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours after the beginning of perfusion to evaluate the perfusate oxygen level. The perfusate was collected, and the levels of Na +, K +, Ca 2+ and glucose as well as the pH value of the perfusate were detected in the two groups. At the end of perfusion, the parietal brain tissues of 1 dog from each group were collected to evaluate the water contents of brain tissues. Nissl staining was used to evaluate the morphological integrity of the pyramidal neurons in the frontal cortex and hippocampus. Neuronal nuclei antigen (NeuN) was used to evaluate the structural and morphological integrity of pyramidal neurons. Immunofluorescence glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ionic calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba1) were used to evaluate the integrity and activity of astrocytes and microglia fragments. Results:At 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours of perfusion, there was no significant difference in the blood oxygen saturation or Na + concentrations between the two groups (all P>0.05); the K + concentrations in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were (4.57±0.12)mmol/L, (4.67±0.14)mmol/L, (4.27±0.12)mmol/L, (4.45±0.10)mmol/L, (6.60±0.15)mmol/L, (7.37±0.18)mmol/L and (9.03±0.16)mmol/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the normothermia with perfusion group [(4.84±0.10)mmol/L, (5.31±0.13)mmol/L, (5.44±0.24)mmol/L, (5.70±0.18)mmol/L, (7.79±0.18)mmol/L, (10.44±0.40)mmol/L, (10.40±0.41)mmol/L] (all P<0.01). At 0, 1, 2 and 3 hours of perfusion, the Ca 2+ concentrations in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were (0.72±0.15)mmol/L, (1.55±0.16)mmol/L, (1.62±0.15)mmol/L and (1.88±0.15)mmol/L, respectively, being significantly higher than those in the normothermia with perfusion group [(0.41±0.13)mmol/L, (0.99±0.12)mmol/L, (1.29±0.13)mmol/L, (1.57±0.11)mmol/L] (all P<0.01), and no significant differences were found at other time points (all P>0.05). At 0, 1 and 2 hours of perfusion, the glucose concentrations in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were (5.75±0.19)mmol/L, (5.17±0.15)mmol/L and (4.72±0.15)mmol/L, respectively, being significantly higher than those in the normothermia with perfusion group [(5.30±0.22)mmol/L, (4.89±0.20)mmol/L, (4.30±0.17)mmol/L] (all P<0.01), with no significant differences found at other time points (all P>0.05). At 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours of perfusion, the pH values of the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were 7.32±0.06, 7.25±0.02, 7.23±0.02, 7.24±0.02 and 7.24±0.02, respectively, being significantly higher than those in the normothermia with perfusion group (7.26±0.01, 7.21±0.01, 7.17±0.02, 7.15±0.02, 7.08±0.02) ( P<0.05 or 0.01), with no significant differences at other time points (all P>0.05). The water content of brain tissues in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group was (74.9±0.4)%, which was significantly lower than (79.9±0.9)% in the normothermia with perfusion group ( P<0.01). Nissl staining showed that the pyramidal neurons in prefrontal cortex and dentate gyrus had good integrity in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group. NeuN immunofluorescence staining showed that the morphology and structure of pyramidal neuron cells in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were better with clearly visible axons than those in the normothermia with perfusion group, whereas the cytosol was full and swollen with scarce axons in the normothermia with perfusion group. GFAP and Iba1 immunofluorescence staining showed that more structurally intact glial cells, more abnormally active cells, thickener axons and better axon integrity in all directions were found in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group than those in the normothermia with perfusion group. Conclusion:Compared with normal temperature antegrade mechanical perfusion, the mild hypothermia antegrade mechanical perfusion can protect canine brain tissue and alleviate ischemic brain injury by maintaining stable energy and oxygen supply, balancing ion homeostasis and perfusion fluid pH value, reducing tissue edema, and maintaining low metabolism of pyramidal neurons, astrocytes and microglia.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of exosomes derived from cardiac fibroblasts treated with hypothermic hypoxia-reoxygenation on ventricular electrical conduction during hypothermic cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods:SPF neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats of either sex, aged 1-2 days, were used, and primary cardiac fibroblasts were extracted by differential adhesion method. The cells were passaged for 2-4 generations. When the cell density reached 60%-70%, the cells were transferred and exposed to 95% N 2 + 5% CO 2 for 1 h at 4 ℃, and then exposed to 95% air + 5% CO 2 for 24-48 h at 37 ℃, and then exosomes were extracted. Twenty-four SPF healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 2-3 months, weighing 280-360 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=8 each) according to the random number table method: control group (group C), hypothermic cardiac IR group (I/R group) and exosome + hypothermic cardiac IR group (Exo-IR group). At 48 h before equilibrium perfusion, 1.5 ml (200 μg) of exosomes secreted by cardiac fibroblasts treated with hypothermic hypoxia-reoxygenation was injected into the tail vein in Exo-IR group, and PBS 1.5 ml was injected into the tail vein in C group and IR group each. Group C received 110 min equilibration perfusion. After 20 min of equilibration, the perfusion was suspended for 60 min (global ischemia) followed by 30 min of reperfusion in IR and Exo-IR groups. Microelectrode arrays were applied at 20 min of equilibrium perfusion and 15 and 30 min of reperfusion to obtain myocardial conduction velocity (CV), absolute conduction inhomogeneity (P 5-95) and inhomogeneity index (P 5-95/P 50) on the left ventricular surface of isolated rat hearts. Results:Compared with group C, the CV was significantly decreased at 15 and 30 min of reperfusion, and P 5-95 and P 5-95/P 50 were increased in IR and Exo-IR groups ( P<0.05). Compared with IR group, CV was significantly increased at 15 and 30 min of reperfusion, and P 5-95 and P 5-95/P 50 were decreased in Exo-IR group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Exosomes derived from cardiac fibroblasts treated with hypothermic hypoxia-reoxygenation can improve ventricular electrical conduction during hypothermic cardiac I/R in rats.

Objective:To evaluate the role of glutathione S-transferase μ1 (GSTM1) expression in mild hypothermia-induced mitigation of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury and the relationship with microglial polarization.Methods:Eighty clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 260-280 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (S group), cerebral I/R group (I/R group), mild hypothermia group (H group), and GSTM1 inhibitor + mild hypothermia group (IH group). The rat model of cerebral I/R injury was prepared using the filament occlusion method. The filament was removed to restore blood flow after the left middle cerebral artery was blocked for 2 h, and the rats′ brain and rectal temperature were maintained at 36-37 ℃ during the period. The vessels were only isolated and ligated without occlusion in S group. In H group, the entire body was wiped with 75% ethanol immediately after removing the filament, and the brain and rectal temperatures were maintained at 32-33 ℃ for 3 h, and the other procedures were the same as those previously described in I/R group. In IH group, GSTM1 inhibitor itaconic acid 8.6 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 24 and 1 h before developing the model, and the other procedures were the same as those previously described in H group. Neurological deficits were evaluated using a modified neurological severity score (mNSS) at 24 h of reperfusion, and then the animals were sacrificed and the brains were removed for observation of cerebral infarction (by TTC staining) and for determination of the expression of GSTM1, M1-type microglial marker inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and M2-type microglial marker arginase-1 (Arg-1) (by Western blot), expression of GSTM1, iNOS and Arg-1 mRNA (quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) and contents of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Results:Compared with S group, the mNSS and percentage of cerebral infarct size were significantly increased, and the expression of iNOS and Arg-1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated, the expression of GSTM1 and mRNA was down-regulated, and the contents of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-10 and TGF-β were increased in the other three groups ( P<0.05). Compared with I/R group and IH group, the mNSS and percentage of cerebral infarct size were significantly decreased, and the expression of iNOS protein and mRNA was down-regulated, the expression of Arg-1 protein and mRNA and GSTM1 was up-regulated, the contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were decreased, and the contents of TGF-β and IL-10 were increased in H group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Up-regulated expression of GSTM1 is involved in mild hypothermia-induced mitigation of cerebral I/R injury, which is associated with inhibition of microglial polarization toward the M1 phenotype and promotion of polarization toward the M2 phenotype.

Objective:To evaluate the role of Sirtuin 1/nuclear factor κB (SIRT1/NF-κB) signaling pathway in mild hypothermia-induced promotion of microglial polarization during oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R).Methods:The well-grown BV2 microglia were divided into 4 groups ( n=36 each) using the random number table method: control group (group C), OGD/R group (group O), mild hypothermia group (group M), and mild hypothermia+ SIRT1 specific inhibitor EX527 group (group ME). Cells in group C were commonly cultured without any treatment. Cells in group O were subjected to 3 h of OGD followed by 21 h of restoration of O 2-glucose supply at 37 ℃. Cells in group M were subjected to 3 h of OGD followed by 21 h of restoration of O 2-glucose supply at 33 ℃. Cells in group ME were co-cultured with inhibitor EX527 (final concentration 5 nmol/L) for 12 h in the medium before OGD/R, and the other procedures were conducted as previously described in group M. The cell survival rate was detected by CCK-8 assay. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in supernatant were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression of CD206, CD32, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and arginine synthase 1 (Arg-1) mRNA was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. The expression of CD206 and CD32 was detected by immunofluorescent staining. The expression of iNOS, Arg-1, SIRT1, NF-κB p65 (p65) and acetylated NF-κB (Ac-p65) was detected by Western blot.

Objective:To investigate the effects of mild hypothermia on microglia polarization and janus kinase 2/signal transduction and transcriptional activation factor 3 (JAK2/STAT3) signaling pathway during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods:Forty-five clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 260-280 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=15 each) by the random number table method: sham operation group (S group), cerebral I/R group (I/R) and mild hypothermia group (H group). In I/R group and H group, cerebral I/R was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion using a nylon thread in anesthetized animals, the nylon thread was removed to restore the perfusion after 2 h of occlusion, and the rectal temperature was maintained at 36-37 ℃ during the period. Group H was wiped with 75% alcohol for 3 h starting from the time point immediately after reperfusion, and the rectal temperature was maintained at 32-33℃. Modified neurological severity score (mNSS) was evaluated at 24 h of reperfusion. Animals were then sacrificed for determination of the cerebral infarct size (using TTC staining), expression of M1 marker inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), M2 marker arginase 1(Arg-1), phosphorylated JAK2(p-JAK2)and phosphorylated STAT3(p-STAT3)(by Western blot), expression of iNOS mRNA and Arg-1 mRNA (by quantitative polymerase chain reaction), and contents of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-10 (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Results:Compared with group S, mNSS and cerebral infarct size were significantly increased, the expression of iNOS, Arg-1 protein and mRNA in cerebral ischemic penumbral zone was up-regulated, and the p-JAK2/JAK2 ratio, p-STAT3/STAT3 ratio, and contents of IL-6 and IL-10 were increased in the other two groups ( P<0.05).

Objective:To evaluate the effect of selective cerebral mild hypothermia on small ubiquitin-like modifier 2/3 (SUMO2/3) modification of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) in a rat model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R).Methods:Sixty clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 240-260 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=15 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (S group), cerebral I/R group (I/R group), selective cerebral mild hypothermia group (HT group) and normal temperature group (NT group). The operation was performed under the monitoring of cerebral temperature and rectal temperature.Only the cervical blood vessels were exposed in S group, while focal cerebral I/R was induced by 2 h middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) followed by 24 h reperfusion in anesthetized animals in the other three groups.In HT group and NT group, 4 and 37 ℃ normal saline was perfused through the left internal carotid artery at a rate of 80 ml·kg -1·h -1 for 15 min, respectively. Modified neurological severity score (mNSS) was assessed at 24 h of reperfusion. Then the rats were sacrificed under deep anesthesia, brains were removed, brain tissues were obtained for determination of the percentage of cerebral infarct size (by TTC staining), and the ischemic penumbra tissues in the cerebral cortex were removed for examination of the ultra-structural changes of mitochondria (with a transmission electron microscope) and for determination of the SUMO2/3 modification of Drp1 (by CO-IP), expression of total Drp1 (T-Drp1) and total cytochrome c (T-Cytc) (by Western blot), and expression of mitochondrial outer membrane Drp1 (M-Drp1) and cytoplasmic Cytc (C-Cytc) (by Western blot) after isolation of mitochondria and cytoplasm. Results:Compared with S group, the mNSS and percentage of cerebral infarct size were significantly increased, the expression of M-Drp1, T-Drp1, C-Cytc and T-Cytc was up-regulated, and SUMO2/3 modification of Drp1 in ischemic penumbra area was increased ( P<0.05), the fragmentation of mitochondria was aggravated, and cristae rupture and vacuolation were obvious in the other three groups. Compared with I/R group, the mNSS and percentage of cerebral infarct size were significantly decreased, the expression of M-Drp1, T-Drp1, C-Cytc and T-Cytc was down-regulated, SUMO2/3 modification of Drp1 was increased ( P<0.05), the fragmentation of mitochondria was significantly attenuated, and cristae rupture and vacuolation were weakened in HT group. There were no significant differences in these detection parameters between NT group and I/R group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which selective cerebral mild hypothermia alleviates the cerebral I/R injury is related to increased SUMO2/3 modification of Drp1, decreased binding of Drp1 to mitochondrial outer membrane, and reduced mitochondrial excessive fission in rats.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of different densities of rat cardiac fibroblasts (RCF) subjected to hypothermic hypoxia-reoxygenation on cardiomyocyte injury and intercellular coupling.Methods:RCF was cultured in vitro and divided into 3 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table method: RCF density 0.5×10 5 cells/ml group (T 0.5 group), RCF density 1.0×10 5 cells/ml group (T 1.0 group), and RCF density 2.0×10 5 cells/ml group (T 2.0 group). The three groups were placed in an anoxic device, into which 95% N 2 + 5% CO 2 was continuously blown at the speed of 5 L/min for 15 min, and then placed in a 4 ℃ refrigerator for 1 h for low temperature treatment.After completion of culture, cells were placed in a incubator containing 95% air + 5% CO 2 at 37 ℃ for 4 h of reoxygenation.After the end of culture, RCF in three groups were indirectly co-cultured with cardiomyocytes of the same density (1.0×10 5 cells/ml) in a Transwell chamber for 16 h, cardiomyocytes were seeded in the lower chamber of Transwell, and RCF were seeded in the upper chamber of Transwell.After the end of co-culture, cardiomyocytes were collected for determination of the cell viability (by CCK8 method), apoptosis rate (by flow cytometry), expression of connexin 43 (Cx43) mRNA (by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction), and expression of Cx43 and phosphorylated Cx43 (p-Cx43) (by Western blot). Results:Compared with T 0.5 group, the cell viability, apoptosis rate and expression of Cx43, p-Cx43 and Cx43 mRNA were significantly decreased in T 1.0 and T 2.0 groups ( P<0.01). Compared with T 1.0 group, the cell viability, apoptosis rate and expression of Cx43 and p-Cx43 were significantly decreased ( P<0.01), and no significant change was found in expression of Cx43 mRNA in cardiomyocytes in T 2.0 group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:RCF subjected to hypothermic hypoxia-reoxygenation induces cardiomyocyte injury in a density-dependent manner in a certain range, and the mechanism may be related to down-regulation of the expression of Cx43 and reduction of the activity of Cx43.

Objective:To investigate the influential factors of neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and compare the therapeutic effects of mild hypothermia at different time windows and between different degrees of disease severity.Methods:Eighty-two neonates with HIE who were admitted to Jiaxing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from January 2016 to October 2021 were included in the patient group, and 123 concurrent healthy neonates were included in the control group. The influential factors of neonatal HIE were analyzed. Sixty-five neonates who received HIE were divided into four groups according to the time length between symptom onset and hospital admission (< 6 hours and 6-12 hours) and disease severity: group I (admission time < 6 hours, mild, n = 20), group II (admission time < 6 hours, moderate to severe, n = 15), group III (admission time 6-12 hours, mild, n = 17), and group IV (admission time 6-12 hours, moderate to severe, n = 13). Amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aGGE) score was used as the evaluation criteria. The therapeutic effects of mild hypothermia were compared between different time windows and between different degrees of HIE. Results:Multivariable logistic regression analysis results revealed that the influential factors of neonatal HIE included gestational hypertension, gestational diabetes, pregnancy examination, delivery methods, amniotic fluid contamination, abnormal fetal membranes (placenta or umbilical cord), fetal distress, and neonatal asphyxia ( P < 0.05). All 65 neonates with HIE underwent mild hypothermia treatment for 72 hours. Before treatment, aGGE score in groups I, II, III and IV was 6.02 ± 1.74 points, 2.43 ± 1.82 points, 5.23 ± 1.95 points, and 2.72 ± 1.76 points, respectively. After treatment, it was 8.13 ± 2.03 points, 6.47 ± 1.87 points, 7.86 ± 1.92 points, and 3.52 ± 1.95 points, respectively. There was significant difference in aGGE score between before and after treatment in groups I, II and III ( t = 2.87, 3.55, 3.15, all P < 0.05). aGGE score in group IV did not differ significantly between before and after treatment ( P > 0.05). Before treatment, aGGE score in children with moderate to severe HIE was lower than that in children with mild HIE. After treatment, there was no significant difference in aGGE score between groups II and III ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Pregnant women with gestational hypertension and gestational diabetes should be given intensive monitoring and learn HIE related knowledge to increase the frequency of prenatal examinations. If amniotic fluid contamination, abnormal fetal membranes (placenta or umbilical cord), fetal distress, or neonatal asphyxia occurs, timely monitoring and corresponding interventions should be given to the fetus. Mild hypothermia therapy has a certain therapeutic effect on different degrees of HIE. For moderate to severe neonates, treatment should be started within 6 hours to ensure the therapeutic effects of mild hypothermia.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of hypothermia on the polarization of microglia and TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway during oxygen-glucose deprivation/restoration (OGD/R).Methods:BV2 microglia were cultured in vitro and divided into 3 groups ( n=18 each) using the random number table method: control group (group C), group OGD/R and OGD/R plus hypothermia group (group OGD/R+ HT). Group C was cultured normally for 24 h. In group OGD/R, the cells were exposed to 5% CO 2-1% O 2 at 37 ℃ for 2 h in a glucose-free medium, followed by restoration of glucose and oxygen for 24 h. In group OGD/R+ HT, the high-glucose medium was replaced with a glucose-free medium, the cells were exposed to 5% CO 2-1% O 2 for 2 h in a 33 ℃ cryostat, followed by restoration of glucose and oxygen for 24 h. The cell survival rate was measured by CCK-8 assay.The expression of M1 microglia markers CD32 and iNOS protein and mRNA and M2 microglia markers CD206 and Arg-1 and mRNA was detected by immunofluorescence and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The expression of TLR-4 and NF-κB in cells was detected by Western blot, and the expression of TLR4 and NF-κB mRNA in cells was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The concentrations of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and interleukin 10 (IL-10) in the cell supernatant were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results:Compared with group C, the cell survival rate was significantly decreased, the expression of CD32, iNOS, CD206, Arg-1, TLR4 and NF-κB protein and mRNA was up-regulated, and the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-10 in supernatant were increased in OGD/R and OGD/R+ HT groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group OGD/R, the cell survival rate was significantly increased, the expression of CD32, iNOS, TLR4 and NF-κB protein and mRNA was down-regulated, the expression of CD206 and Arg-1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated, the concentrations of TNF-α and IL-1β in supernatant were decreased, and the concentration of IL-10 was increased in group OGD/R+ HT ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Hypothermia can significantly inhibit microglia polarization toward M1 phenotype, increase microglia polarization toward M2 phenotype and inhibit the development of inflammatory responses during OGD/R, and the mechanism may be related to inhibition of TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of exosomes derived from cardiac fibroblasts pretreated with sevoflurane on ventricular electrical conduction in isolated rat hearts subjected to hypothermic ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) using the multi-electrode array mapping technique.Methods:Primary cardiac fibroblasts were extracted by differential adhesion in SPF Sprague-Dawley rats of either sex.Cardiac fibroblasts of passage 2-4 were treated with 2.5% sevoflurane for 1 h, and then cultured for 24-48 h to extract exosome.SPF healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 2-3 months, weighing 280-320 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=8 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), I/R group and sevoflurane-pretreated cardiac fibroblast-derived exosome+ IR group (group S+ IR). Hearts were perfused for 110-min equilibration in group C. After 20 min of equilibration, the perfusion was suspended for 60 min (global ischemia) followed by 30 min of reperfusion in IR and S+ IR groups.Exosomes 1 ml (200 μg) derived from cardiac fibroblasts pretreated with sevoflurane were injected through the tail vein at 48 h before surgery in group S+ IR, and the equal volume of normal saline was injected instead in C and IR groups.The cardiac conduction velocity (CV), conduction absolute inhomogeneity (P 5-95) and inhomogeneity index (P 5-95/P 50) were obtained at 20 min of equilibration (T 0) and 15 and 30 min of reperfusion (T 1, 2) using the microelectrode array attaching to the left ventricular surface of the isolated heart. Results:Compared with group C, CV was significantly decreased and P 5-95 and P 5-95/P 50 were increased at T 1 ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found at T 2 in group S+ IR ( P>0.05), and CV was significantly decreased and P 5-95 and P 5-95/P 50 were increased at T 1, 2 in group IR ( P<0.05). Compared with group IR, CV was significantly increased and P 5-95 and P 5-95/P 50 were decreased at T 1, 2 in group S+ IR ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Exosomes derived from cardiac fibroblasts pretreated with sevoflurane can improve ventricular electrical conduction in isolated rat hearts subjected to hypothermic I/R.

Introduction: Therapeutic hypothermia is the currently indicated treatment for moderate to severe encephalopathy in newborns. Therapy requires a trained and integrated nursing team, aiming at qualified, effective and safe care. Theoretical models have been developed to help the incorporation of scientific evidence into nurses' practice, representing a challenge in the health area. The implementation of an educational intervention, guided by the i-PARIHS (Integrated Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services Framework) framework, can fill the gap between theory and professional practice, benefiting care and making subjects active in the management of newborns with therapeutic hypothermia. General objective: to evaluate the impact of an educational intervention guided by the theoretical framework i-PARIHS, on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit on the knowledge, attitudes and practices of nurses. Specific objectives: to analyze the knowledge, attitude and practice of nurses on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in pre- and post-educational therapeutic hypothermia; to identify barriers and facilitators perceived by nurses on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit; implement an educational intervention, guided by the i-PARIHS framework, to improve nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit and compare the knowledge, attitude and practice of nurses after the participatory educational intervention program and indicators regarding the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia. Method: this is a quasi-experimental intervention study carried out with 29 nurses from a neonatal intensive care unit, a reference in Rio de Janeiro. The main outcome: knowledge, attitudes and practices of nurses in the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive unit The intervention comprised three phases: pre-intervention - educational intervention - post-intervention. The educational intervention had five meetings: "Perinatal Asphyxia x Therapeutic Hypothermia", "Temperature control", "Nursing care in HT: pain assessment", "Neurological monitoring" and "Family-Centered Care". For the statistical analysis, descriptive analysis and application of the Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney and Mc Nemar tests were used, with the adopted significance level of 0.05. Results: the analysis of pre- and post-test results showed an increase in the correct score of questions about nurses' knowledge and practices in the management of newborns submitted to therapeutic hypothermia in the neonatal intensive care unit, showing statistical significance for most items. For innovation, reminders, admission flow for newborns at the institution and a booklet for parents were created as a product of the intervention with nurses. Conclusion: The result of the audits carried out, after the implementation of the evidence, found a positive transformation of the nurses' practice. Using the i-PARIHS framework highlighted the need and value of investing in stakeholder engagement, collaborative context assessment, and co-creation of innovation using qualified facilitation. The educational intervention guided by the i-PARIHS framework was shown to have an impact on the management of newborns with perinatal asphyxia in therapeutic hypothermia by nurses.

Abstract Objective: To evaluate the effect that external cooling of the salivary glands (ECSG) has on the uptake of gallium-68-labeled prostate-specific membrane antigen (68Ga-PSMA), as an indirect assessment of the capacity of ECSG to reduce the local dose in lutetium-177-PSMA-617 radioligand therapy. Materials and Methods: Ten patients with prostate cancer were submitted to 68Ga-PSMA positron emission tomography/computed tomography with unilateral ECSG. The ECSG was started at 30 min before the injection of the radiotracer and maintained until the end of image acquisition (1 h after injection). Each salivary gland was assessed by determining the maximum, mean, and peak standardized uptake values (SUVmax, SUVmean, and SUVpeak, respectively). The volume of each gland was determined in a volume of interest delineated by a threshold SUVmax of 10%. Paired Student's t-tests were used in order to compare the results. Results: In terms of the SUV parameters, there were no statistically significant differences between the cooled and contralateral salivary glands. However, the mean volume was 27% lower in the cooled parotid glands than in the contralateral parotid glands (p = 0.004). Conclusion: The use of ECSG does not appear to reduce 68Ga-PSMA uptake by the salivary glands. In addition, there is yet no evidence that ECSG is effective in preventing salivary gland toxicity.
Resumo Objetivo: Avaliar o impacto do resfriamento externo de glândulas salivares (REGS) na captação de 68Ga-PSMA como marcador indireto dessa intervenção para redução da dose local na terapia com 177Lu-PSMA. Materiais e Métodos: Dez pacientes com câncer de próstata foram submetidos a PET/CT com 68Ga-PSMA com REGS unilateral. O resfriamento se iniciou 30 minutos antes da injeção do radiofármaco até o fim da aquisição de imagem, 1 hora após a injeção. Cada glândula foi avaliada para os valores de captação padronizados máximo, médio e pico (SUVmáx, SUVmédio e SUVpico, respectivamente). O volume foi definido por um isocontorno usando 10% do SUVmáx. Os resultados foram comparados com o teste t de Student. Resultados: Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os valores de SUV das glândulas resfriadas e seus controles. Houve 27% de redução volumétrica (p = 0,004) nas parótidas resfriadas em comparação ao controle. Conclusão: Não houve redução da captação de 68Ga-PSMA nas glândulas salivares ao REGS. Atualmente não há evidências que suportem essa prática clínica.

Resumen. La encefalopatía hipóxico-isquémica es una causa frecuente e importante de daño neurológico en recién nacidos a término y prematuros. Un evento centinela de esta condición es la vasa previa, específicamente cuando existe anormalidad de la placenta como la inserción "velamentosa" del cordón umbilical. Algunos reportes evidencian la asociación entre estas dos condiciones, pero son escasos los que dan cuenta del proceso de recuperación y del pronóstico neurológico de los niños afectados por ellas. Se presenta el caso de un paciente, con antecedentes de inserción "velamentosa" del cordón umbilical y encefalopatía hipóxico-isquémica, que recibió hipotermia terapéutica (cool cap). Se describe su proceso de rehabilitación neurológica y se calculó el porcentaje de probabilidad de presentar esta condición frente a la población sin estos factores. El niño tenía cinco años y el puntaje en su prueba de Apgar fue de 0 al minuto y de 2 a los 15 minutos. Desarrolló encefalopatía hipóxico-isquémica grave secundaria a una inserción "velamentosa" del cordón umbilical sin diagnóstico prenatal, con gran compromiso neurológico y multisistémico inicial. El proceso de recuperación incluyó el manejo inicial multidisciplinario en la unidad de cuidados intensivos neonatales y el inicio temprano de habilitación neurológica. Hoy el niño está escolarizado y en terapia integral, no presenta deficiencias motoras ni sensoriales en el examen físico, aunque la prueba neuropsicológica sugiere un riesgo de trastorno por déficit de atención e hiperactividad. Habitualmente, los niños con encefalopatía hipóxico-isquémica grave presentan discapacidad por deficiencias motoras, cognitivas o conductuales. El haber recibido hipotermia terapéutica y un manejo estructurado de rehabilitación redujo en gran medida las deficiencias esperadas y ha promovido un satisfactorio desarrollo físico y neurológico.
Abstract. Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy is a frequent and important cause of neurological problems in term and preterm newborns. A sentinel event of this entity is the vasa previa, specifically when there is an abnormality of the placenta such as a velamentous cord insertion. Some reports have shown the association between these two entities, but those regarding the recovery process and the neurological prognosis of children with both conditions are scarce. We present the case of a patient with a history of velamentous cord insertion and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy who received therapeutic hypothermia (cool cap). We describe his neurological rehabilitation process and we calculated the percentage of probability of presenting this condition compared to the population without these factors. The patient was a five-year-old boy with an Apgar index at birth equal to zero at one minute and equal to two at fifteen minutes who developed severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy secondary to a velamentous cord insertion without prenatal diagnosis and a marked initial neurological and multisystemic compromise. The recovery process included early multidisciplinary management in the neonatal intensive care unit and a focus on early neurological habilitation. The patient is currently in school and he undergoes comprehensive therapies; on physical examination, he presents no motor or sensory deficiencies. His neuropsychological test suggests the risk of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Children with severe hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy usually have disabilities due to motor, cognitive, and/or behavioral deficiencies. Having received therapeutic hypothermia and a structured rehabilitation process greatly reduced the expected deficiencies according to prognosis and have promoted satisfactory physical and neurological development.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of mild hypothermia on inositol requiring enzyme 1-X-box binding protein 1 (IRE1-XBP1) signaling pathway in endoplasmic reticulum in cortex in a rat model of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R).Methods:Fifty-four clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8-10 weeks, weighing 200-230 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=18 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (group S), cerebral I/R group (group I) and mild hypothermia group (group T). Cerebral I/R was induced by inserting a nylon thread with rounded tip into the internal carotid artery which was occluded for 2 h and then released for reperfusion.The surface cooling was started immediately after reperfusion, and the rectal temperature was maintained at 32-34 ℃ for 3 h in group T. Blood vessels were only exposed, without occlusion in group S. The neurologic deficit was assessed and scored at 24 h of reperfusion.The animals were then sacrificed and the ischemic area of the cerebral cortex was removed for examination of the ultrastructure of the cells (with a transmission electron microscope), for determination of nerve cell apoptosis (using TUNEL), for detection of the expression of IRE1 and XBP1 (by Western blot) and for determination of the expression of IRE1 and XBP1 protein mRNA (using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction). Results:Compared with group S, the neurologic deficit scores were significantly increased, nerve cell apoptosis in the ischemic area of the cerebral cortex was increased, the expression of IRE1, XBP1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated ( P<0.05), the neuronal nuclei was degenerated and swollen, the nuclear membrane was fragmented and defective, the chromatin was pyknotic and marginalized, and the endoplasmic reticulum was dilated and cisternal in group I and group T. Compared with group I, the neurologic deficit scores were significantly decreased, nerve cell apoptosis in the ischemic area of the cerebral cortex was decreased, the expression of IRE1, XBP1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the damage to the ultrastructure of nerve cells was reduced in group T. Conclusion:The mechanism by which mild hypothermia alleviates focal cerebral I/R injury is associated with further activation of neuronal IRE1-XBP1 signaling pathway and alleviation of endoplasmic reticulum stress response in rats.

Objective:To evaluate the role of hsa_circ_0025853 in hypothermia-induced reduction of oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) injury to neuroblastoma cells (SK-N-SH cells). Methods:SK-N-SH cells were cultured in vitro to the logarithmic phase and divided into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), group OGD/R, hypothermia group (group H) and hsa_circ_0025853 small interfering RNA (siRNA) plus hypothermia group (group S+ H). The cells were cultured in normal culture atmosphere in group C. The cells were subjected to OGD for 3 h followed by restoration of oxygen-glucose supply for 24 h in group OGD/R.The cells were subjected to OGD for 3 h followed by restoration of oxygen-glucose supply for 24 h at 32 ℃ in group H. The cells were transfected with siRNA at 48 h before establishing OGD/R model, and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group H. At 24 h of restoration of oxygen-glucose, cell viability was measured by Cell Counting Kit-8, apoptosis rate were measured by flow cytometry.the expression of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) mRNA and hsa_circ_0025853 was detected by quantitative real-time-polymerase chain reaction, and the expression of Drp1 protein was detected by Western blot. Results:Compared with group C, the cell viability was significantly decreased, the apoptosis rate of cells was increased, the expression of hsa_circ_0025853 was down-regulated, and the expression of Drp1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated in the other 3 groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group OGD/R, the cell viability was significantly increased, the apoptosis rate of cells was decreased, the expression of hsa_circ_0025853 was up-regulated, and the expression of Drp1 protein and mRNA was down-regulated in H and S+ H groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group H, the cell viability was significantly decreased, the apoptosis rate of cells was increased, the expression of hsa_circ_0025853 was down-regulated, and the expression of Drp1 protein and mRNA was up-regulated in group S+ H ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The mechanism by which hypothermia alleviates the OGD/R injury to SK-N-SH cells is related to the up-regulation of hsa_circ_0025853 expression, thus reducing the expression level of Drp1.
