Conclusion : La prise en charge des extrêmes poids de naissance reste difficile à cause des moyens très limités dans nos pays.Des interventions simples comme la mise en place d'un réseau de périnatalité, peuvent améliorer de manière considérable la survie de ces nouveau-nés.

Extremely low birth weight infants are a public health problem in developing countries. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prognosis of extremely low birth weight newborns hospitalized at Saint Camille Hospital in Ouagadougou (HOSCO). Method: This was a descriptive and analytical study with retrospective data collection on newborns with birth weight <1000g in the neonatology department from January 2017 to December 2021. Results: A total of 319 newborns were admitted giving a hospital frequency of 8.62%. Male sex was predominant with a sex ratio of 1.02. The mean age was 0.18 ± 0.71 days. The main signs on admission were hypothermia 88.40% and respiratory distress 92.16%. The evolution was marked by 92.79% of deaths of which 90.20% occurred during the early neonatal period. Hypothermia, birth outside HOSCO and maternal age less than 20 years were the factors associated with mortality. Conclusion: The management of low birth weight remains difficult because of the very limited resources in our countries. Simple and inexpensive interventions can considerably improve the survival of these newborns

Role of NLRP3 inflammasome in therapeutic mild hypothermia post-treated myocardial ischemia-reperfusion rats / 临床麻醉学杂志

Objective To analyze the role of NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3(NLRP3)inflammasome in a therapeutic mild hypothermia(34℃)treated isolated rat myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model and explore its mechanism.Methods Sixty clean grade adult male SD rats,aged 7-10 weeks,weighing 250-300 g.Using a random number table method,the rats were divid-ed into five groups:blank control group(group S),myocardial ischemia-reperfusion group(group IR),34℃mild hypothermia post-treated myocardial ischemia-reperfusion group(group MH),34℃mild hypother-mia post-treated myocardial ischemia-reperfusion+3-TYP group(group HT),and 34℃mild hypothermia post-treated myocardial ischemia-reperfusion+3-TYP+MCC950 group(group HTM),12 rats in each group.Group S perfused the rat heart at 37℃with a balanced perfusion solution for 180 minutes.Group IR re-ceived balanced perfusion of the rat heart at 37℃for 30 minutes,followed by ischemia for 30 minutes and reperfusion with 37℃perfusion for 120 minutes.Group MH perfused the rat heart at 37℃for 30 minutes,followed by ischemia for 30 minutes and reperfusion with 34℃perfusion solution for 120 minutes.Group HT perfused the hearts of rats at 37℃for 30 minutes,followed by ischemia for 30 minutes,silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 3(sirt3)inhibitor 3-TYP was added to the perfusate,and then per-fused at 34℃for 120 minutes.Group HTM perfused the hearts of rats at 37℃for 30 minutes,followed by ischemia for 30 minutes,sirt3 inhibitor 3-TYP and NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 were added to the perfusate,and then perfused at 34℃for 120 minutes.The isolated heart was obtained 120 minutes after reperfusion,and the concentrations of IL-6 and IL-1β in the perfused cardiac fluid was measured using ELISA method,Western blot method for detecting the relative content of NLRP3 and sirt3 proteins in myocardial tissue,1%triphenyl tetrazolium chloride staining for calculating myocardial infarction area,and HE staining for observ-ing myocardial pathological changes.Results Compared with group S,HR were significantly slowed down,LVSP,±dp/dtmax were significantly decreased,and LVEDP were significantly increased 30,60,90,and 120 minutes after reperfusion,the concentrations of IL-6 and IL-1β in cardiac fluid leakage,and the per-centage of myocardial infarction area were significantly increased in groups IR,MH,HT,and HTM(P＜0.05),the content of sirt3 protein in myocardial tissue were significantly reduced,while the content of NLRP3 protein were significantly increased in groups IR,HT,and HTM(P＜0.05),the contents of sirt3 and NLRP3 protein in the myocardial tissue were significantly increased in group MH(P＜0.05).Com-pared with group IR,HR were significantly increased,LVSP,±dp/dtmax were significantly increased,and LVEDP were significantly decreased 30,60,90,and 120 minutes after reperfusion,the concentrations of IL-6 and IL-1β in cardiac fluid leakage and the percentage of myocardial infarction area were significantly decreased in groups MH and HTM(P＜0.05),the content of sirt3 protein in myocardial tissue was signifi-cantly increased,while the content of NLRP3 protein was significantly decreased in group MH(P＜0.05),the content of NLRP3 protein in myocardial tissue was significantly reduced in group HTM(P＜0.05).Compared with group MH,HR were significantly slowed down,LVSP,±dp/dtmax were significantly de-creased,and LVEDP were significantly increased 30,60,90,and 120 minutes after reperfusion,the con-centrations of IL-6 and IL-1β in cardiac fluid leakage,the percentage of myocardial infarction area,and the content of NLRP3 protein in myocardial tissue were significantly increased in group HT(P＜0.05),the content of sirt3 protein in myocardial tissue was significantly reduced in groups HT and HTM(P＜0.05).Compared with group HT,HR were significantly increased,LVSP,±dp/dtmax were significantly increased,and LVEDP were significantly decreased 30,60,90,and 120 minutes after reperfusion,the concentrations of IL-6 and IL-1β in cardiac fluid leakage,the percentage of myocardial infarction area,and the content of NLRP3 protein in myocardial tissue were significantly reduced in group HTM(P＜0.05).Conclusion Therapeutic mild hypothermia(34℃)can improve hemodynamic parameters of isolated hearts and reduce the concentrations of IL-6 and IL-1β,NLRP3 protein content in myocardial tissue,percentage of myocardial infarction area,improve myocardial pathological changes,and reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats,the mechanism may be related to the mitochondrial mediated sirt3 pathway inhibiting the high expres-sion of inflammatory corpuscle NLRP3.

Long-term mild hypothermia promotes neuroprotection by antagonizing the rebound of intracranial pressure after traumatic brain injury in rats / 天津医药

Objective To explore the optimal duration of long-term mild hypothermia(MHT)for traumatic brain injury(TBI)in rats,and observe its effect on intracranial pressure(ICP)and neurological function.Methods Forty-eight healthy adult male SD rats were divided into the normal temperature treatment(NT)group,the MHT4 h group,the MHT24 h group and the MHT48 h group by random number table method,with twelve rats in each group.The TBI model of rats was prepared by electronic controllable cortical injury device,and ICP monitoring probe was implanted.After modeling,the NT group was treated with normal temperature(37℃),and the other groups were treated with low temperature(33.0±1.0)℃for 4 h,24 h and 48 h,respectively.ICP was monitored and brain water content(BWC)was calculated after MHT treatment in each group.Blood-brain barrier permeability was determined by Evansland(EB)staining.The expression of 5-bromodeoxyuracil nucleoside(BrdU),neuronal nuclear antigen antibody(NeuN)and leukocyte differentiation antigen 86(CD86)positive cells were detected by immunofluorescence staining.The expressions of B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2 associated X protein(Bax),inducable nitric oxide synthase(iNOS),interleukin(IL)-10 and arginase 1(Arg-1)were detected by Western blot assay.Results Compared with the NT group,levels of BWC,ICP,EB,and CD86 positive cells,Bax and iNOS expression levels were decreased in the MHT4 h group,the MHT24 h group and the MHT48 h group,and the number of BrdU positive cells and BrdU/NeuN double-labeled positive cells were increased in hippocampus.The expression levels of Bcl-2,IL-10 and Arg-1 were increased(P＜0.01).Compared with the MHT24 h group,levels of BWC,ICP and EB,and CD86 positive cells,Bax and iNOS expression were decreased,and the number of BrdU positive cells and BrdU/NeuN double-labeled positive cells were increased in the MHT48 h group,while levels of Bcl-2,IL-10 and Arg-1 expression were increased(P＜0.01).Conclusion Long-term MHT can promote the proliferation and differentiation of neurons,inhibit apoptosis and reduce inflammation by suppressing ICP rebound,further promoting neuroprotection after TBI.

Analysis of hypothermia factors for elderly patients with malnutrition during proximal femoral nail antirota-tion internal fixation under general anesthesia / 局解手术学杂志

Objective To analyze the incidence and risk factors of hypothermia in elderly patients with malnutrition during proximal femoral nail antirotation(PFNA)internal fixation under general anesthesia.Methods A total of 139 elderly patients underwent PFNA internal fixation under general anesthesia were selected,and the nutritional status scores 1 day before surgery ranged from 0 to 11 points.Univariate and multivariate Logistic binary regression analysis was performed to analyze the related factors that may lead to intraoperative hypothermia.Results Among 139 elderly patients with preoperative nutritional scores of 0 to 11 points,79 cases(56.83%)developed intraoperative hypothermia.The results of univariate and multivariate Logistic binary regression analysis suggested that age≥75 years old,mini nutritional assessment short form(MNA-SF)nutritional score 0 to 7 points,BMI<18.5 kg/m2,duration of general anesthesia≥2 hours,intraoperative flushing fluid volume≥1 000 mL and intraoperative fluid volume≥1 000 mL were the risk factors for the occurrence of intraoperative hypothermia in elderly patients(OR>1,P<0.05).The use of warm blanket insulation was the protective factor against the occurrence of intraoperative hypothermia(OR<1,P<0.05).Conclusion The incidence of intraoperative hypothermia during PFNA internal fixation under general anesthesia in elderly patients with mainutrition before operation is high,and patients with poor nutritional status are more likely to develop intraoperative hypothermia.Patients with older age,poor nutritional status,lower BMI,longer duration of general anesthesia,and more intraoperative flushing fluid volume and intraoperative fluid volume are likely to lead to intraoperative hypothermia.The use of warm blanket can reduce the incidence of intraoperative hypothermia.

Objective To analyze the risk factors for hypothermia during modified radical mastectomy,and construct a nomogram model for predicting the occurrence of hypothermia during modified radical mastectomy based on the risk factors.Methods A total of 383 patients received modified radical mastectomy admitted to our hospital were selected and divided into the hypothermia group(n=58)and the normal group(n=325)according to whether hypothermia occurred.The clinical data of the patients were collected,and the univariate analysis and Logistic regression analysis were used to screen out the independent risk factors for intraoperative hypothermia,and a risk nomogram model for predicting intraoperative hypothermia was constructed by R software and verified.Results There were statistically significant differences in the hypothyroidism,preoperative basal body temperature,intraoperative room temperature,operation time,anesthesia time,intraoperative blood loss,and intraoperative infusion between the two groups(P<0.05).The hypothyroidism(OR=2.156,95%CI:1.158～4.016,P=0.015),abnormal preoperative basal body temperature(OR=2.451,95%CI:1.309～4.588,P=0.005),intraoperative room temperature<23℃(OR=2.027,95%CI:1.085～3.786,P=0.027),operation time>2 hours(OR=2.316,95%CI:1.239～4.327,P=0.008),anesthesia time>3 hours(OR=2.264,95%CI:1.206～4.252,P=0.011),intraoperative infusion volume>1 500 mL(OR=2.895,95%CI:1.543～5.432,P=0.001)were the independent risk factors for the occurrence of intraoperative hypothermia.The nomogram model showed that the score of intraoperative infusion volume>1 500 mL was 100 points,hypothyroidism was 93 points,anesthesia time>3 hours was 85 points,intraoperative room temperature<23℃was 84 points,operation time>2 hours was 79 points,and abnormal preoperative basal body temperature was 75 points.The nomogram model verification results demonstrated that the C-index was 0.834;the H-L goodness-of-fit test showed χ2=11.854 and P=0.078;the calibration curve was close to the ideal curve;the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.812;and the net benefit value was high at the threshold probability from 5%to 70%.Conclusion The nomogram model constructed in this study can more accurately and reliably predict the risk of hypothermia occurring during modified radical mastectomy,which meets the clinical need for an integrated model and helps to promote the steady development of individualized medicine.

Mild Hypothemia Inhibits Interferon-α2b-induced AC16 Cardiomyocytes Apoptosis Via Improving Mitochondrial Function / 中国循环杂志

Objectives:To explore the effect and possible mechanisms of mild hypothermia on interferon(IFN)-α2b-induced AC16 cardiomyocytes apoptosis. Methods:Cardiomyocytes were stimulated in ordinary temperature and mild hypothermia by IFN-α2b under different concentrations for different times.Proliferation activity of cardiomyocytes was detected by CCK-8 assay.Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry technique.The effects of different interventions on mitochondrial morphology were examined using Mito-Tracker Green and laser scanning confocal microscope,respectively.The mitochondrial membrane potentials under different intervention conditions were detected by flow cytometry.The fusion of dynamin-related protein 1(Drp1)and mitochondria,and the effects of different interventions on the mitochondria was examined by Drp1 or mitochondrial fluorescent probes and laser scanning confocal microscope.The effects of different intervention conditions on the protein expression level of Phospho-Drp1(p-Drp1)Ser616,Drp1,cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase1(cleaved-PARP1),poly ADP-ribose polymerase1(PARP1)were detected by Western blot. Results:CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry results showed that IFN-α2b inhibited the proliferation and enhanced the apoptosis of AC16 cardiomyocytes in a time and dose-dependent manner,these effects could be attenuated by mild hypothermia.Mito-Tracker Green,laser scanning confocal microscope and flow cytometry results showed that the extent of damage of mitochondria with different interventions were attenuated in the setting of mild hypothermia as compared with ordinary temperature.The morphology of mitochondria remained intact and the mitochondrial membrane potentials were the highest in mild hypothermia group.Injured AC16 cardiomyocytes released Drp1 from cytoplasm to mitochondria and increased mitochondrial fission,these effects were abolished after mild hypothermia.p-Drp1 Ser616/Drp1 ratio and cleaved-PARP1/PARP1 ratio were decreased after mild hypothermia,and above effects could be reversed by mitochondrial division inhibitor-1(Mdivi-1)pretreatment. Conclusions:Mild hypothermia inhibits IFN-α2b-induced AC16 cardiomyocytes apoptosis via improving mitochondrial function.

Is Deep Hypothermic Cardiac Arrest Mandatory in Aortic Arch Surgeries?

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.

Influence of maternal and perinatal complications on therapeutic hypothermia in newborns with low Apgar scores

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of therapeutic hypothermia on maternal and perinatal outcomes in newborns with Apgar score<7 at the 5th min. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was carried out with 55 newborns who had an Apgar score<7 at the 5th min (35 without and 20 with therapeutic hypothermia) from low-risk pregnancies between 33 and 41 weeks gestation. The Apgar score was calculated through an objective assessment by a neonatologist in the delivery room. Therapeutic hypothermia was indicated by a neonatologist in the delivery room, according to the protocol established by the Brazilian Society of Pediatrics. The maternal and perinatal outcomes of both groups (without and with therapeutic hypothermia) were compared. RESULTS: A rate of Apgar score<7 at the 5th min was 1.02%. No statistical differences were observed between the two groups (without and with therapeutic hypothermia) regarding maternal/perinatal complications. The presence of maternal/perinatal complications did not increase the odds ratio of neonatal therapeutic hypothermia in newborns with Apgar score<7 at the 5th min. CONCLUSION: The rate of Apgar score<7 at the 5th min was low, and it was not associated with any maternal/perinatal complications. There was no significant difference in maternal/perinatal complications between newborns who received therapeutic hypothermia and those who did not.

Consensus of the Brazilian association of hematology, hemotherapy and cellular therapy on patient blood management: Inadvertent intraoperative hypothermia

Abstract Hemostasis plays a critical role in surgical procedures and is essential for a successful outcome. Advances in hemostatic agents offer new approaches to controlling bleeding thereby making surgeries safer. The appropriate choice of these agents is crucial. Volume replacement, another integral part of Patient Blood Management (PBM), maintains adequate tissue perfusion, preventing cellular damage. Individualization in fluid administration is vital with the choice between crystalloids and colloids depending on each case. Colloids, unlike crystalloids, increase oncotic pressure, contributing to fluid retention in the intravascular space. Understanding these aspects is essential to ensure safe and effective surgery, minimizing complications related to blood loss and maintaining the patient's hemodynamic status.

Escenarios para el diagnóstico de encefalopatía hipóxico isquémica e inicio de tratamiento con hipotermia controlada en recién nacidos con asfixia perinatal / Scenarios for the diagnosis of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy and initiation of therapeutic hypothermia treatment in newborns with perinatal asphyxia / Cenários para o diagnóstico da encefalopatia hipóxico-isquemia e início de tratamento de hipotermia terapêutica a recém-nascidos com asfixia perinatal

La hipoxia isquemia perinatal y su complicación más temida, la encefalopatía hipóxica isquémica, continúa siendo uno de los principales motivos de ingreso a las unidades de cuidados neonatales. En la actualidad la hipotermia controlada es el tratamiento recomendado para los pacientes con encefalopatía moderada a severa, dado su carácter de neuroprotección ante la injuria cerebral hipóxico isquémica. Si bien los criterios de inclusión en esta terapia han sido bien establecidos, aún hay dificultades tanto en la identificación precoz de aquellos que pueden verse beneficiados, como en la toma de decisiones ante situaciones de controversia entre la evidencia disponible y la que se está gestando en estudios en curso. Este artículo pretende aportar herramientas al clínico para abordar diferentes escenarios que surgen de la práctica diaria.

Perinatal hypoxic ischemia and its most feared complication, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, remain one of the main reasons for admission to neonatal care. Controlled hypothermia is currently the recommended treatment for patients with moderate to severe encephalopathy, given its neuroprotective nature against hypoxic-ischemic brain injury. Although the inclusion criteria for this therapy have been well established, there are still difficulties both in the early identification of those who may benefit, and in making decisions regarding situations of controversy between the available evidence and that being developing in ongoing studies. This paper aims at providing tools so that clinicians can address different scenarios that arise during their daily practice.

Humanistic Care for the Prevention of Perioperative Hypothermia in the Elderly / 中国医学伦理学

The intervention and prevention of perioperative hypothermia is not only reflected in the technical level, but also reveals the important role of humanistic care in the whole intervention work. If perioperative patients have hypothermia, it is likely to cause a series of complications such as postoperative shivering, which seriously threatens the life safety of patients. Prevention and intervention was based on a comprehensive understanding of the causes and hazards of hypothermia, especially the impact on the lives of the elderly. Effective supervision was implemented in the whole process of operation, such as dynamic monitoring of vital signs including body temperature, followed by room temperature regulation, body temperature protection and preoperative and postoperative psychological nursing. At this time, the sense of responsibility, good humanistic care of medical staff are of positive significance to effectively prevent and reduce the probability of perioperative hypothermia and accelerate the postoperative rehabilitation of patients.

Impact of Reconstructing Intercostal Artery on Spinal Cord Circulation During Open Surgery for Thoracoabdominal Aortic Aneurysm

ABSTRACT Introduction: We evaluated the outcomes of the selective intercostal artery reconstruction for preventing spinal cord injury during thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Methods: We retrospectively assessed 84 consecutive patients who underwent thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repairs between 2004 and 2016. The mean age of the patients was 57.3 years. We performed preoperative multidetector computed tomography in 74 patients (88.0%) to identify the Adamkiewicz artery. Spinal cord injury preventive measures included motor evoked potential monitoring, hypothermia induction, Adamkiewicz artery or other intercostal artery reconstruction, and cerebrospinal fluid drainage. Results: The hospital death rate was 5.9%, and paraplegia occurred in four patients (4.7%). The Adamkiewicz artery or other intercostal arteries were reconstructed selectively in 46 patients (54.7%). Of these patients, 41 underwent postoperative multidetector computed tomography, which revealed occlusion of the reconstructed grafts in 23 patients (56.0%). There was no paraplegia in the patients who underwent reconstruction of the Adamkiewicz artery, which was patent on postoperative multidetector computed tomography. Univariate analysis showed no significant effect of various risk factors on the development of spinal cord injury. Conclusion: Outcome of open surgery for thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm in our institution regarding spinal cord injury was satisfactory. The benefits of Adamkiewicz artery reconstruction remain inconclusive, and further larger studies are required to identify its validation for spinal cord protection in thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair.

Comparison between selective head cooling and whole-body cooling in neonatal therapeutic hypothermia / Comparação entre resfriamento seletivo da cabeça e resfriamento de corpo inteiro na hipotermia terapêutica neonatal

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.

Hypothermia among premature newborns on admission to a neonatal intensive care unit / Hipotermia entre los recién nacidos prematuros que ingresan en una unidad de cuidados intensivos neonatales / Hipotermia entre recém-nascidos prematuros na admissão em uma unidade de terapia intensiva neonatal

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess prevalence and factors associated with hypothermia in preterm infants admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit. Methods: It is a cross-sectional retrospective study, with 154 premature newborns admitted between 2017 and 2019 in a neonatal intensive care unit. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the association to hypothermia. Results: There was a predominance of males (55.8%), coming from the operating room (55.8%), gestational age > 32 weeks (71.4%), weight > 1500g (59.1%), Apgar in the 1st minute of life less than seven (51.9%) and in the 5th minute of life greater than or equal to seven (94.2%). The prevalence of hypothermia at admission was 68.2%. It was found that the lower the weight, the greater the chances of hypothermia, being three times higher in low weight (OR 3.480), five times higher in very low weight (OR5.845) and up to 47 times higher in extremely low weight (OR47.211). Conclusion: Hypothermia was 68.2% and it was associated with lower birth weight.

A metabonomic study of intragastric local hypothermia intervention in rats with pancreatitis / 中华急诊医学杂志

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of local gastric hypothermia in rats with pancreatitis based on a GC?MS and LC?MS dual metabolomics strategy.Methods:Eighteen SD rats were randomly divided into the sham operation (SO), acute pancreatitis (AP) and acute pancreatitis hypothermia (APH) groups. The AP model was established by retrograde injection of 3.5% sodium taurocholate solution into the pancreaticobiliary duct in the AP and APH groups. In the APH group, gastrotomy was performed near the cardia, and a cooling balloon with 2 silicone catheters was placed in the stomach. After the successful establishment of the rat pancreatitis model in the APH group, the speed of ice water circulation was controlled and the output power of the heating pad was adjusted to achieve pancreatic surface temperature reduction while avoiding systemic hypothermia. Temperatures were not monitored and controlled in the SO and AP groups. Serum amylase was detected by ELISA. Pancreatic tissues were stained with HE and histopathologically scored. The expression of NF-κB, IL-6, TNF-α and IκBα in pancreatic tissue was detected by Western blotting. The AP and APH groups were compared by full-scan analysis, and the serum differential metabolites and metabolic pathways were detected by GC?MS- and LC?MS-based metabolomics strategies.Results:Compared with the SO group, the serum amylase level in the AP group and APH group were increased (all P<0.05). Compared with the AP group, the amylase levels at 3 h and 5 h after the operation were decreased in the APH group (both P<0.05). The pathological scores of the AP and APH groups were higher than those of the SO group (both P<0.05), and the pathological damage to pancreatic tissue in the APH group was less than that in the AP group ( P<0.05). IL-6, TNF-α and NF-κB were decreased and IκBα was increased in the APH group compared with the AP group by Western blotting (all P<0.05). A total of 53 differential metabolites were identified by GC?MS, and 236 differential metabolites were identified by LC?MS in the serum samples of the APH group compared with the AP group. The differential metabolites obtained from the blood samples of the APH group and AP group were imported into MetaboAnalyst 4.0 software for analysis, and the root data-log ( P value)>2, P<0.05, three major metabolic pathways were obtained, including ascorbate and aldarate metabolism, pentose and glucuronate interconversions and tryptophan metabolism. Conclusions:Local gastric hypothermia has a protective effect on the expression of inflammatory factors and alleviates pathological damage in rats with acute pancreatitis, which may be related to ascorbate and aldarate metabolism, pentose and glucuronate interconversions and tryptophan metabolism.

Characteristic and influencing factors of temperature trajectories of patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy / 中国实用护理杂志

Objective:To explore the characteristic and influencing factors of temperature trajectories of patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy, to provide reference for intraoperative temperature management.Methods:Using retrospective analysis methods, the patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy hospitalized in Zhoushan Branch of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2019 to December 2022 were collected as the research subjects by convenient sampling method. The patient′s body temperature data at the beginning of the surgery, 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes, 120 minutes during the surgery, and at the end of the surgery were recorded. The latent class growth model was used to identify the potential trajectory category. Multiple Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of trajectory category.Results:The intraoperative temperature changes of patients could be divided into three trajectories: 30.0% (45/150) in the normal temperature group, 38.7% (58/150) in the hypothermia resuscitation group, and 31.3% (47/150) in the hypothermia non resuscitation group. There was a statistically significant difference in the three potential categories of intraoperative body temperature trajectory among patients in indicators such as age, BMI, intraoperative infusion volume, surgical time, and anesthesia time ( F values were 3.39-30.01, all P<0.05). Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI, intraoperative infusion volume, surgical time, and anesthesia time were the prediction factors for temperature trajectory of patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy (all P<0.01). Conclusions:The temperature in patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy demonstrates three different trajectories, medical staff should implement targeted interventions based on the different trajectory characteristics of temperature.

Study on the application and promotion of the delayed umbilical cord clamping quality improvement project in very preterm and extremely preterm infants / 中国新生儿科杂志

Objective:To study the safety and feasibility of application of delayed umbilical cord clamping (DCC) in very preterm and extremely preterm infants.Methods:Based on the previous improvement projects of temperature management and respiratory support, we conducted a prospective study on the effect of umbilical cord clamping quality improvement project using the clinical data of very preterm and extremely preterm infants admitted to Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital. The infants admitted from July to December 2020 who underwent immediate umbilical cord clamping (ICC) were included in the ICC group, and the infants admitted from January to June 2021 who underwent DCC were involved in the DCC group. The incidence of asphyxia, hypothermia, endotracheal intubation within 24 h after birth, endotracheal intubation within 72 h after birth, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and other complications, mechanical ventilation duration and total oxygen therapy duration were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 45 cases were included in ICC group and 54 cases in DCC group. The gestational age of the two groups was (29.3±1.7) weeks and (29.6±1.4) weeks, and the birth weight was (1 250±332) g and (1 257±306) g. The differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of asphyxia, hypothermia, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and other complications related to preterm infants, tracheal intubation rates within 24 and 72 h, and the neonatal temperature at admission to NICU ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Delayed umbilical cord clamping does not increase the risks of asphyxia, hypothermia or invasive respiratory support in very preterm and extremely preterm infants.
