    Notes: Abstract Background: ATIII is decreased in sepsis and/or shock and its baseline value correlates with mortality. The efficacy of ATIII therapy on mortality was assessed in a selected group of patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) in a double-blind, randomized, multicenter study. Methods: 120 patients admitted to the ICU with an ATIII concentration 〈 70 % were randomized to receive ATIII (total dose 24 000 units) or placebo treatment for 5 days; 56 patients had septic shock. Results: ATIII concentrations in the treated group remained constant throughout the treatment period (range 97–102 %). The Kaplan- Meier analysis showed no difference in overall survival between the two groups: 50 and 46 % for ATIII and placebo, respectively. Septic shock and hemodynamic support were unbalanced in the two groups at admission. Therefore the Cox analysis was carried out after adjusting for these two variables. Treatment with ATIII decreases the risk of death with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.56. Of the covariates analyzed, septic shock and the baseline multiple organ failure score were negatively associated with survival and plasma activity level was positively associated with survival with an OR of 0.97 for each 1 % increase in the ATIII plasma concentration at baseline. Conclusions: The results of ATIII treatment in this population of patients suggests that replacement therapy reduces mortality in the subgroup of septic shock patients only.

    Notes: Abstract The maximum rate (Vmax) of some mitochondrial enzymatic activities related to the energy transduction (citrate synthase, α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, cytochrome oxidase) and amino acid metabolism (glutamate dehydrogenase, glutamate-pyruvate-transaminase, glutamate-oxaloacetate-transaminase) was evaluated in non-synaptic (free) and intra-synaptic mitochondria from rat brain cerebral cortex. Three types of mitochondria were isolated from rats subjected to i.p. treatment with L-acetylcarnitine at two different doses (30 and 60 mg·kg−1, 28 days, 5 days/week). In control (vehicle-treated) animals, enzyme activities are differently expressed in non-synaptic mitochondria respect to intra-synaptic “light” and “heavy” ones. In fact, α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, succinate dehydrogenase, malate dehydrogenase, glutamate-pyruvate-transaminase and glutamate-oxaloacetate-transaminase are lower, while citrate synthase, cytochrome oxidase and glutamate dehydrogenase are higher in intra-synaptic mitochondria than in non-synaptic ones. This confirms that in various types of brain mitochondria a different metabolic machinery exists, due to their location in vivo. Treatment with L-acetylcarnitine decreased citrate synthase and glutamate dehydrogenase activities, while increased cytochrome oxidase and α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase activities only in intra-synaptic mitochondria. Therefore in vivo administration of L-acetylcarnitine mainly affects some specific enzyme activities, suggesting a specific molecular trigger mode of action and only of the intra-synaptic mitochondria, suggesting a specific subcellular trigger site of action.

    Effect of In Vivo Administration of Naloxone on ATP-ase's Enzyme Systems of Synaptic Plasma Membranes from Rat Cerebral Cortex (2000)

    Notes: Abstract Naloxone is a specific competitive antagonist of morphine, acting on opiate receptors, located on neuronal membranes. The effects of in vivo administration of naloxone on energy-consuming non-mitochondrial ATP-ases were studied in two different types of synaptic plasma membranes from rat cerebral cortex, known to contain a high density of opiate receptors. The enzyme activities of Na+, K+-ATP-ase, Ca2+, Mg2+-ATP-ase and Mg2+-ATP-ase and of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) were evaluated on synaptic plasma membranes obtained from control and treated animals with effective dose of naloxone (12μg · kg−1 i.m. 30 minutes). In control (vehicle-treated) animals specific enzyme activities assayed on these two types of synaptic plasma membranes are different, being higher on synaptic plasma membranes of II type than of I type, because the first fraction is more enriched in synaptic plasma membranes. The acute treatment with naloxone produced a significant decrease in Ca2+,Mg2+-ATP-ase activity and an increase in AChE activity, only in synaptic plasma membranes of II type. The decrease of Ca2+,Mg2+-ATP-ase enzymatic activity and the increased AChE activity are related to the interference of the drug on Ca2+ homeostasis in synaptosoplasm, that leads to the activation of calcium-dependent processes, i.e. the extrusion of neurotransmitter. These findings give further evidence that pharmacodynamic characteristics of naloxone are also related to increase [Ca2+] i , interfering with enzyme systems (Ca2+,Mg2+-ATP-ase) and that this drug increases acetylcholine catabolism in synaptic plasma membranes of cerebral cortex.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird über zwei Fälle von hereditärer motorischer und sensorischer Neuropathie vom Typ-III (Déjérine-Sottas-Krankheit) berichtet, welche otoneurologisch und elektrophysiologische eingehend untersucht wurden. In beiden Fällen fand man Hinweise dafür, daß die vestibulären und akkustischen zentralen Bahnen mitbetroffen sind. Dies läßt darauf schließen, daß bei dieser Erkrankung die Myelinstrukturen nicht nur in den peripheren Nerven sondern auch im Zentralorgan betroffen sein können.
    Notes: Summary Two cases of hereditary motor sensory neuropathy type III (Déjérine-Sottas disease) examined by audiological, vestibular and electrophysiological methods are reported. In both cases there were signs of vestibular and acoustic central pathway involvement, shown by vestibular examination and by the study of auditory evoked potentials. The presence of central involvement in this hereditary neuropathy suggests central as well as peripheral myelin alteration.

    Notes: Abstract Background: Laparoscopic surgery decreases postoperative pain and length of hospital stay. Whether laparoscopically assisted abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair can be safely and reliably performed is unknown. This prospective study was designed to establish the feasibility of laparoscopically assisted AAA repair and its effects on intraoperative and postoperative variables. Methods: With IRB approval, 10 patients with infrarenal AAA requiring a tube graft underwent laparoscopically assisted AAA repair. The procedure consisted of laparoscopic dissection of the aneurysm neck and iliac vessels. Then, through an 8–11-cm minilaparotomy, a standard endoaneurysmorrhaphy was performed. Data included laparoscopic and total operative times, blood loss, fluid requirements, duration of nasogastric suction (NGT), and lengths of intensive care unit (ICU) and postoperative hospital stays. Results: Laparoscopically assisted AAA was completed in nine of 10 patients. The first patient was converted to a standard incision because the aneurysm neck could not be adequately dissected. Laparoscopic and total operative times were 1.8 ± 0.4 and 4.5 ± 0.7 h, respectively. Mean blood loss was 1 ± 0.6 l. Intraoperative fluid requirement was 6.6 ± 1.3 l. The duration of NGT suction was 1.8 ± 1.0 days. The ICU stay was 2.1 ± 0.8 days and hospital stay was 6.7 ± 2.5 days. There were two minor complications and no deaths. Conclusions: Laparoscopically assisted AAA repair is technically feasible with acceptable blood loss, operative time, morbidity, and mortality. Potential advantages may be early removal of the NGT and shorter ICU and hospital stays. Prospective randomized trials are needed to determine if laparoscopically assisted AAA repair is advantageous.

    Notes: Abstract Background: Advanced laparoscopic procedures are more commonly performed in elderly patients with cardiac disease. There has been limited data on the use of pulmonary artery catheters (PAC) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to monitor hemodynamic changes. Methods: We prospectively studied eight patients undergoing laparoscopic assisted abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. All patients had a PAC and all but one had an intraoperative TEE. Data included heart rate (HR), temperature (temp), pulmonary artery systolic (PAS) and diastolic (PAD) pressures, mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), cardiac index (CI), mixed venous oxygen saturation (MVO2), and oxygen extraction ratio (O2Ex) and was obtained prior to induction, during insufflation, after desufflation, during aortic cross-clamp, and at the end of the procedure. End diastolic area (EDA), a reflection of volume status, was measured on TEE. ANOVA was used for data analysis. Results: No changes were noted in HR, temp, PAS, PCWP, CI, MVO2, and O2Ex. PAD and CVP were greater during insufflation compared with baseline and aortic cross-clamp without associated changes in EDA. MAP was higher at baseline compared with all other times during the procedure. Conclusions: Insufflation increased PAD and CVP. However, volume status as suggested by EDA and PCWP did not change. These data question the reliability of hemodynamic measurements obtained from the PAC during pneumoperitoneum and suggest that TEE may be sufficient for evaluation of volume status along with the added benefit of timely detection of ventricular wall motion abnormalities.
