Abstract
INTRODUCTION Asthma is distinguished by bronchial obstruction reversible by bronchodilators. The first-line treatment for asthmatic exacerbations is the use of inhaled beta-agonists, by pressurized metered-dose inhalers or nebulized with normal saline solution (NSS). There are no reports of nebulized beta agonists' efficacy in asthmatic children when administered with hypertonic saline solution (HSS). OBJECTIVE To evaluate bronchodilator responses (BDR) to albuterol nebulized with 3%-HSS in asthmatic children, compared to albuterol nebulized with NSS. POPULATION AND METHODS In a prospective, experimental, double-blind, randomized clinical study, children with a confirmed diagnosis of asthma with mild or moderate bronchial obstruction (FEV1 40%-79% of predicted) were randomized to receive a nebulization with 2.5 mg of albuterol diluted in 3 cc of 3%-HSS or NSS (0.9%), by means of a jet nebulizer. After 30 min, the BDR was assessed. RESULTS Fifty patients (mean age 12.0 ± 3 years, 29 males) were enrolled; 25 were randomized to the 3%-HSS group (FEV1 65.2% ± 10) and 25 to the NSS group (FEV1 69.1% ± 7.1). The BDR of FEV1 was 41.2% (SD: ±20.1; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 35.1-50.4) and 17.3% (SD: ±19.4; 95% CI: 9.7-24.9) (p < .0001) and of maximum mid-expiratory flow was 130% (SD: ±90.8; 95% CI: 94.6-166) and 69.8% (SD: ±72.5; 95% CI: 41.4-98.2) (p < .01), for the 3%-HSS and NSS groups, respectively. CONCLUSION Albuterol produces a greater BDR when nebulized with 3%-HSS compared to NSS in asthmatic children with mild or moderate bronchial obstruction.

Hypertonic saline solution decreases oxidative stress in liver hypothermic ischemia. Surgery 2021; 169:1512-1518. [PMID: 33678500 DOI: 10.1016/j.surg.2020.12.042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2020] [Revised: 12/29/2020] [Accepted: 12/31/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Liver ischemia reperfusion injury is still an unsolved problem in liver surgery and transplantation. In this setting, hypothermia is the gold standard method for liver preservation for transplantation. Hypertonic saline solution reduces inflammatory response with better hemodynamic recovery in several situations involving ischemia reperfusion injury. Here, we investigated the effect of hypertonic saline solution in hypothermic liver submitted to ischemia reperfusion injury. METHODS Fifty male rats were divided into 5 groups: SHAM, WI (animals submitted to 40 minutes of partial warm liver ischemia and reperfusion), HI (animals submitted to 40 minutes hypothermic ischemia), HSPI (animals submitted to hypothermic ischemia and treated with 7.5% hypertonic saline solution preischemia), and HSPR (animals submitted to hypothermic ischemia and treated with hypertonic saline solution previously to liver reperfusion). Four hours after reperfusion, the animals were euthanized to collect liver and blood samples. RESULTS Aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase, histologic score, and hepatocellular necrosis were significantly decreased in animals submitted to hypothermia compared with the warm ischemia group. Malondialdehyde was significantly decreased in hypothermic groups with a further decrease when hypertonic saline solution was administrated preischemia. Hypothermic groups also showed decreased interleukin-6, interleukin-10, and tumor necrosis factor-α concentrations and better recovery of bicarbonate, base excess, lactate, and glucose blood concentrations. Moreover, hypertonic saline solution preischemia was more effective at controlling serum potassium concentrations. CONCLUSION Hypertonic saline solution before hypothermic hepatic ischemia decreases hepatocellular oxidative stress, cytokine concentrations, and promotes better recovery of acid-base disorders secondary to liver ischemia reperfusion.

Effects of Hypertonic Saline and Hydroxyethyl Starch on Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells in Hemorrhagic Shock Mice under Secondary Bacterial Attack. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:5417201. [PMID: 32258126 PMCID: PMC7085872 DOI: 10.1155/2020/5417201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2019] [Revised: 02/04/2020] [Accepted: 02/20/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Objectives The primary target is to reveal whether the resuscitation with hypertonic saline (HTS) or hydroxyethyl starch (HES) would have different effects on the myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) count and monocytic MDSC (M-MDSC)/granulocytic/neutrophilic MDSC (G-MDSC) rate in the peripheral blood, spleen, and bone marrow nucleated cells (BMNC) in a controlled hemorrhagic shock mouse model under secondary Escherichia coli bacterial infection attack, comparing to resuscitation with normal saline (NS) in 72 hours. Method After hemorrhagic shock with bacteremia, which is induced by Escherichia coli bacterial infection attack, comparing to resuscitation with normal saline (NS) in 72 hours. Method. After hemorrhagic shock with bacteremia, which is induced by Escherichia coli 35218 injection, the mice were distributed into control, NS, HTS, and HES groups. The peripheral blood nucleated cells (PBNC), spleen single-cell suspension, and bone marrow nucleated cells were collected. The flow cytometry was used to detect the MDSC, M-MDSC, and G-MDSC. Result In PBNC, after resuscitation with NS, the MDSC was continuously higher, while the rate of M-MDSC/G-MDSC were continuously lower (P < 0.05). In HTS, the MDSC varied, higher at 24 and 72 hours (P < 0.05). In HTS, the MDSC varied, higher at 24 and 72 hours (P < 0.05). In HTS, the MDSC varied, higher at 24 and 72 hours (P < 0.05). In HTS, the MDSC varied, higher at 24 and 72 hours (P < 0.05). In HTS, the MDSC varied, higher at 24 and 72 hours (P < 0.05), the M-MDSC/G-MDSC were continuously lower (P < 0.05). In the spleen, resuscitation with HTS, the M-MDSC/G-MDSC were continuously lower (P < 0.05). In BMNC, after resuscitation with HES, the M-MDSC/G-MDSC were lower at 24 and 72 hours (P < 0.05). Conclusion In mouse hemorrhagic shock model with bacterial infection, the resuscitation with NS, HTS, or HES induced difference changes in MDSC and M-MDSC/G-MDSC, which were time-dependent and organ-specific. Resuscitation with crystalloid, like NS or HTS, showed longer effects on the MDSC and M-MDSC/G-MDSC in peripheral blood; while HTS has a longer effect on M-MDSC/G-MDSC in the spleen, HES has a stronger impact on the differentiation regulation of MDSC to G-MDSC in the bone marrow.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Preventing secondary insult to the brain is imperative following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Although TBI does not preclude nonoperative management (NOM) of splenic injuries, development of hypotension in this setting may be detrimental and could therefore lead trauma surgeons to a lower threshold for operative intervention and a potentially higher risk of failure of NOM (FNOM). We hypothesized that the presence of a TBI in patients with blunt splenic injury would lead to a higher risk of FNOM. METHODS Patients with blunt splenic injury were selected from the National Trauma Data Bank research datasets from 2007 to 2011. TBI was defined as AIS head ≥ 3 and FNOM as patients who underwent a spleen-related operation after 2 h from admission. TBI patients were compared to those without head injury. The primary outcome was FNOM. RESULTS Of 47,713 patients identified, 41,436 (86.8%) underwent a trial of NOM. FNOM was identical (10.6 vs. 10.8%, p = 0.601) among patients with and without TBI. TBI patients had lower adjusted odds for FNOM (AOR 0.66, p < 0.001), even among those with a high-grade splenic injury (AOR 0.68, p < 0.001). No difference in adjusted mortality was noted when comparing TBI patients with and without FNOM (AOR 1.01, p = 0.95). CONCLUSIONS NOM of blunt splenic trauma in TBI patients has higher adjusted odds for success. This could be related to interventions targeting prevention of secondary brain injury. Further studies are required to identify those specific practices that lead to a higher success rate of NOM of splenic trauma in TBI patients.

Abstract
Context The present review discusses different studies about the treatment of hemorrhagic shock (HS) with hypertonic saline (HTS). Evidence acquisition We have searched the title in the most popular databases containing recent meta-analysis or randomized clinical trials (RCTs). Results We introduce the hemodynamic effects and mechanisms of action of HTS in HS. Evidence in this field shows controversial results. There are some data supporting the potential benefits of HTS infusion in HS. The goal of research in this field is to identify the best therapy in HS with the least mortality. Conclusion Our conclusion shows that although HTS can decrease inflammatory response during HS, it can attenuate hypercoagulability and cause complications. There are no data supporting less mortality while treatment with HTS versus other fluids in HS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and differentiation of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in hemorrhagic shock mice, which are resuscitated with normal saline (NS), hypertonic saline (HTS), and hydroxyethyl starch (HES). METHODS BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control, NS, HTS, and HES resuscitation groups. Three subgroups (n=8) in each resuscitation group were marked as 2, 24, and 72 h. Flow cytometry was used to detect the MDSCs, monocytic MDSCs (M-MDSCs), and granulocytic/neutrophilic MDSCs (G-MDSCs) in peripheral blood nucleated cells (PBNCs), spleen single-cell suspension, and bone marrow nucleated cells (BMNCs). RESULTS The MDSCs in BMNCs among three resuscitation groups were lower 2 h after shock, in PBNCs of the HTS group were higher, and in spleen of the NS group were lower (all P<0.05 vs. control). The M-MDSC/G-MDSC ratios in PBNCs of the HTS and HES groups were lower (both P<0.05 vs. control). At 24 h, the MDSCs in PBNCs of the NS and HTS groups were higher, while the spleen MDSCs in the HTS group were higher (all P<0.05 vs. control). The M-MDSC/G-MDSC ratios were all less in PBNCs, spleen, and BMNCs of the NS and HTS groups, and were lower in BMNCs of the HES group (all P<0.05 vs. control). At 72 h, the elevated MDSCs in PBNCs were presented in the HTS and HES groups, and in spleen the augment turned up in three resuscitation groups (all P<0.05 vs. control). The inclined ratios to M-MDSC were exhibited in spleen of the NS and HTS groups, and in PBNCs of the NS group; the inclination to G-MDSC in BMNCs was shown in the HES group (all P<0.05 vs. control). CONCLUSIONS HTS induces the earlier elevation of MDSCs in peripheral blood and spleen, and influences its distribution and differentiation, while HES has a less effect on the distribution but a stronger impact on the differentiation of MDSCs, especially in bone marrow.

Abstract
We have previously shown that lung injury following fluid resuscitation either with hypertonic saline (HS) or lactated Ringer's (LR) plus pentoxifylline (PTX) attenuated acute lung injury when compared with LR resuscitation. The objective of the present study is to determine whether our previous observations are accompanied by changes in polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) behavior. To study this, PMN-endothelial cell interactions, microcirculatory blood flow, lung histology, lung PMN infiltration (WIPO, Myeloperoxidase), and lung intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression were assessed in a controlled hemorrhagic shock model followed by LR, HS, and LR+PTX resuscitation in rodents. Rats (240-300 g) were bled to a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 35 mm Hg for 1 hr and then randomized into three groups: HS (7.5% NaCl, 4 ml/kg); LR (3× shed blood); and LR+PTX (25 mg/kg). Additionally, total shed blood was reinfused. A sham group underwent no shock and no treatment. The internal spermatic fascia was exteriorized and the microcirculation was observed by closed-circuit TV coupled to a microscope, 2 and 6 hrs after treatment. The number of leukocytes sticking to the venular endothelium was determined 2 hrs after fluid resuscitation. Microcirculatory blood flow was measured by an optical Doppler velocimeter. Lung histology and lung MPO immunostaining were assessed at 6 hrs, and lung ICAM-1 expression was determined by immunostaining at 2 hrs following fluid resuscitation. Two hours after treatment, HS (1.4 ± 0.4), LR+PTX (1.7 ± 0.3), and sham (0.4 ± 0.2) groups presented significant reductions in leukocyte adherence (cells/100 urn venule length), compared with the LR group (4.0 ± 0.9, P < 0.05). No differences were observed 6 hrs after treatment on leukocyte adherence and microcirculatory blood flow. ICAM-1 expression was significantly higher in LR- treated animals compared with the HS, LR+PTX, and sham groups (P < 0.01). PMN infiltration and overall lung injury were significantly attenuated by HS and LR+PTX. These results support earlier studies that indicated the potential application of HS and PTX in shock therapy and the increase in PMN- endothelial cell interaction and lung injury after LR resuscitation.

Abstract
Modern trauma management has recognized the importance of using conservative fluid resuscitation regimes in order to prevent complications from fluid overload arising. Hypertonic/hyperoncotic fluids appear to provide an ideal means of facilitating this, requiring only small volumes to rapidly elevate blood pressure. Hypertonic saline dextran (HSD) was introduced in 1985 but its take up has been slow, a large part of this has been due to the lack of human trials and concerns about complications. The current evidence has been reviewed and it is clear that HSD is an efficient means of correcting hypotension, doing so mainly by the mobilizing endogenous water. It is becoming apparent that early administration has the potential to modulate the inflammatory cascade in patients at risk of developing adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and multiorgan failure. This is reflected in the handful of human trials that show a trend towards increased survival (particularly for head injuries) and a possible reduction in ARDS. The side effect profile appears to be good, even in the presence of dehydration or penetrating trauma. Published human trials have methodological problems and lack of power of study this has led to a reliance on animal studies. Clearly there is great potential, but before large-scale prehospital usage can be justified further well-conducted randomized human trials are needed.

Abstract
Hypertonic saline solutions (HSSs) (7.5%) are useful in the resuscitation of patients with hypovolemic shock because they provide immediate intravascular volume expansion via the delivery of a small volume of fluid, improving cardiac function. However, the effects of using 3% HSS in hypovolemic shock resuscitation are not well known. This study was designed to compare the effects of and complications associated with 3% HSS, 7.5% HSS, and standard fluid in resuscitation. In total, 294 severe trauma patients were enrolled from December 2008 to February 2012 and subjected to a double-blind randomized clinical trial. Individual patients were treated with 3% HSS (250 mL), 7.5% HSS (250 mL), or lactated Ringer's solution (LRS) (250 mL). Mean arterial pressure, blood pressure, and heart rate were monitored and recorded before fluid infusion and at 10, 30, 45, and 60 min after infusion, and the incidence of complications and survival rate were analyzed. The results indicate that 3% and 7.5% HSSs rapidly restored mean arterial pressure and led to the requirement of an approximately 50% lower total fluid volume compared with the LRS group (P < 0.001). However, a single bolus of 7.5% HSS resulted in an increase in heart rate (mean of 127 beats/min) at 10 min after the start of resuscitation. Higher rates of arrhythmia and hypernatremia were noted in the 7.5% HSS group, whereas higher risks of renal failure (P< 0.001), coagulopathy (P < 0.001), and pulmonary edema (P < 0.001) were observed in the LRS group. Neither severe electrolyte disturbance nor anaphylaxis was observed in the HSS groups. It is notable that 3% HSS had similar effects on resuscitation because both the 7.5% HSS and LRS groups but resulted in a lower occurrence of complications. This study demonstrates the efficacy and safety of 3% HSS in the resuscitation of patients with hypovolemic shock.

Abstract
We examined the effects of hypertonic saline (HS) on inflammatory, metabolic variables, and bacterial translocation (BT) in rats submitted to intestinal obstruction and ischemia (IO). Male Wistar rats were submitted to IO and treated, 2 h thereafter, with lactated Ringer's (LR) (4 mL/kg per 5 min, i.v.) or HS (7.5% NaCl, 4 mL/kg per 5 min, i.v.). Twenty-four hours after IO, rats were also submitted to enterectomy/enteroanastomosis to resection of necrotized small bowel. Leukocyte-endothelial interactions were investigated by intravital microscopy and the expression of P-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 by immunohistochemistry. Bacterial cultures of mesenteric lymph nodes, liver, spleen, and blood were used to evaluate BT. Levels of chemokines (cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractants 1 and 2), insulin, and corticosterone were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Intestinal histology, serum urea and creatinine levels, and hepatic enzymes activities were performed to evaluate local and remote damage. Relative to IO and LR-treated rats, which exhibited increases in the number of rolling (1.5-fold), adhered (3.5-fold) and migrated (9.0-fold) leukocytes, and increased expression of P-selectin (3-fold) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (3-fold) on mesenteric microcirculation, treatment with HS followed by enterectomy reduced leukocyte-endothelial interactions and expression of both adhesion molecules to values attained in sham rats. Serum chemokines were normalized after treatment with both solutions followed by enterectomy. Hypertonic saline-treated rats demonstrated a significant reduction in BT to 50% in liver and spleen samples and bacteremia (14%), compared with 82% of BT in liver and spleen samples of IO and LR-treated rats and bacteremia (57%). Local intestinal damage was attenuated, and renal and hepatic function preserved by treatment with HS followed by enterectomy. Survival rate increased to 86% up to 15 days. Data presented suggest that HS solution followed by enterectomy reduces mesenteric microcirculatory dysfunctions and BT, attenuating local and remote damage in a model of strangulated small bowel obstruction.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypertonic saline (HS) can treat cerebral edema arising from a number of pathologic conditions. However, physicians are reluctant to use it during the first 24 h after stroke because of experimental evidence that it increases infarct volume when administered early after reperfusion. Here, we determined the effect of HS on infarct size in an embolic clot model without planned reperfusion. METHODS A clot was injected into the internal carotid artery of male Wistar rats to reduce perfusion in the middle cerebral artery territory to less than 40 % of baseline, as monitored by laser-Doppler flowmetry. After 25 min, rats were randomized to receive 10 mL/kg of 7.5 % HS (50:50 chloride:acetate) or normal saline (NS) followed by a 0.5 mL/h infusion of the same solution for 22 h. RESULTS Infarct volume was similar between NS and HS groups (in mm(3): cortex 102 ± 65 mm(3) vs. 93 ± 49 mm(3), p = 0.72; caudoputamenal complex 15 ± 9 mm(3) vs. 21 ± 14, p = 0.22; total hemisphere 119 ± 76 mm(3) vs. 114 ± 62, p = 0.88, respectively). Percent water content was unchanged in the infarcted hemisphere (NS 81.6 ± 1.5 %; HS 80.7 ± 1.3 %, p = 0.16), whereas the HS-treated contralateral hemisphere was significantly dehydrated (NS 79.4 ± 0.8 %; HS 77.5 ± 0.8 %, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS HS reduced contralateral hemispheric water content but did not affect ipsilateral brain water content when compared to NS. Infarct volume was unaffected by HS administration at all evaluated locations.

Abstract
Centhaquin has been reported to be an effective resuscitative agent. The present study was carried out to determine resuscitative effect of centhaquin when administered using a small volume of 3% hypertonic saline (HS) to hemorrhaged rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized with urethane, and a pressure catheter SPR-320 was placed in the left femoral artery; another pressure-volume catheter SPR-869 was placed into the left ventricle. Hemorrhage was induced by withdrawing blood and mean arterial pressure (MAP) was maintained at 35 mm Hg for 30 minutes after which resuscitation was performed. Animals were divided in 2 groups: group A received HS and group B received centhaquin (0.05 mg/kg) dissolved in HS. The time by which MAP fell back to 35 mm Hg was observed at that time all animals were administered fresh blood. It was found that centhaquin significantly reduced blood lactate and improved cardiac output and MAP of hemorrhaged rats compared with HS. The time by which MAP fell back to 35 mm Hg in rats treated with HS was 55 ± 6 minutes, whereas it was 161 ± 14 minutes in centhaquin treated rats. Survival time following administration of fresh blood was 79 ± 7 minutes in vehicle-treated group, whereas it was 105 ± 9 minutes in centhaquin-treated rats. The total time of survival of rats treated with HS or centhaquin was 134 ± 12 minutes and 266 ± 16 minutes, respectively. Centhaquin, in small volume, maintained MAP of hemorrhaged rats for a considerable long time and improved the survival time.

Abstract
There is a wealth of preclinical data suggesting potential benefit from the administration of hypertonic solutions after severe injury with hypovolemic shock, including improved tissue perfusion, improved flow through the microcirculation, and modulation of the inflammatory response, which may mitigate subsequent organ failure. However, despite these potential advantages, clinical trials of hypertonic resuscitation early after injury have failed to demonstrate significant benefit for resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock, and although there is no difference in overall mortality, there appears to be a trend toward earlier mortality among those receiving hypertonic fluids. Likewise, for TBI there are data suggesting that hypertonic fluids should support cerebral perfusion and mitigate intracranial hypertension, yet the clinical trials of early administration to these patients have also failed to show benefit. Further study is warranted in this patient population, as a longer period of hypertonicity may be required to show a clinical effect. Assessment of long-term neurologic outcome in this patient population remains the gold standard in determining benefit.

Hypertonic saline resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock does not decrease in vivo neutrophil interactions with endothelium in the blood-brain microcirculation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock with isotonic crystalloids has been shown to activate polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs). Although hypertonic saline (HTS) can reduce PMN activation and interactions with endothelial cells (EC) in systemic microvascular beds, no data exist demonstrating that the same occurs in the unique blood-brain barrier microcirculation. We hypothesized that resuscitation of hemorrhagic shock with HTS would blunt brain in vivo PMN-EC interactions. METHODS Wistar rats (250-350 g) underwent craniotomy and placement of a window for live intravital viewing of pial vessels. Twenty animals were bled to a mean arterial pressure of 30 mm Hg to 35 mm Hg for 1 hour and resuscitated with shed blood and either 5% HTS (6 mL/kg) or Ringer's lactate (RL) (2× shed blood volume). Circulating rhodamine-6G-labeled PMN in pial venules were captured by videomicroscopy at baseline (preshock), end of the shock period, after resuscitation, and every 15 minutes to 30 minutes for 2 hours. Hemodynamics and arterial gases were monitored. Off-line footage analysis allowed comparisons of PMN-EC interactions between groups. RESULTS Animals in both groups developed significant metabolic acidosis (p < 0.01) after hemorrhage, but postresuscitation blood pressures were similar at all time points. Crystalloid resuscitation volumes were 10× greater in RL than HTS animals (p < 0.001). For all time points, we did not observe the expected reduction in PMN rolling and adhesion in HTS animals, instead noted trends of consistently lower interactions in RL counterparts. CONCLUSIONS In contradistinction to studies evaluating the systemic microcirculation, HTS may activate PMN-EC crosstalk in the blood-brain microcirculation. Further studies are needed to analyze whether this effect is due to the unique nature of the blood-brain interface.

Abstract
Either estrogen or hypertonic saline (HTS) administration can decrease lung inflammation after ischemia-reperfusion. The present study investigated whether combined treatment with estrogen and HTS could provide further protection from mesenteric ischemia-reperfusion (MSIR) injury. Male C3H/HeOuJ mice were randomly segregated into the following groups: sham-operated (sham), vehicle treatment followed by MSIR (vehicle treated), estrogen treatment followed by MSIR (estrogen treated), HTS treatment and MSIR (HTS treated), and combined treatment of estrogen plus HTS and MSIR (combined treated). In MSIR, mice were subjected to mesenteric ischemia for 60 min followed by reperfusion for 30 min. The histology of the lung and the gut was obtained. Lung injury was evaluated by lung edema and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity; lung protein expression of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4), phosphorylated inhibitory κBα (p-IκBα), and inducible nitric oxide synthetase (iNOS) were assayed. Survival analysis was monitored after MSIR for 120 min. Compared with those in the sham-treated group, the lung water ratio, MPO activity, and expressions of MIF, TLR4, p-IκBα, and iNOS were significantly increased in the vehicle-treated group. Diminished MIF, TLR4, p-IκBα, and iNOS expressions were found in the estrogen-treated group, whereas suppression of p-IκBα and iNOS was found in the HTS-treated group. Treatment with estrogen or HTS decreased the lung water and MPO activity. The combined treatment of estrogen and HTS further significantly diminished p-IκBα and iNOS expression, lung edema, and MPO activity and improved the inflammation of the lung and the morphology of the gut in histology compared with the results of a single treatment of estrogen or HTS. Survival analysis showed significantly increased survival in the combination-treated group compared with survival in the HTS-treated group. In conclusion, compared with single-agent use, treatment combining estrogen and HTS further decreases lung p-IκBα and iNOS expressions, as well as the degree of lung injury. These effects may result in better rates of survival from MSIR injury.

Abstract
Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury occurs frequently in a variety of clinical settings, including mesenteric artery occlusion, abdominal aneurism surgery, trauma, shock, and small intestinal transplantation, and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. Although the exact mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of intestinal I/R injury have not been fully elucidated, it is generally believed that polymorphonuclear neutrophils, pro-inflammatory cytokines, and mediators generated in the setting of oxidative stress, such as reactive oxygen species (ROS), play important roles. Heme oxygenase (HO) is the rate-limiting enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of heme into equimolar quantities of biliverdin and carbon monoxide (CO), while the central iron is released. An inducible form of HO (HO-1), biliverdin, and CO, have been shown to possess generalized endogenous anti-inflammatory activities and provide protection against intestinal I/R injury. Further, recent observations have demonstrated that exogenous HO-1 expression, as well as exogenously administered CO and biliverdin, have potent cytoprotective effects on intestinal I/R injury as well. Here, we summarize the currently available data regarding the role of the HO system in the prevention intestinal I/R injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertonic saline (HTS) administration can decrease the inflammation following ischemia reperfusion. Magnolol is a potent antioxidant. The present study investigated whether combined treatment of magnolol and HTS could provide further protection in mesenteric ischemia reperfusion injury. METHODS Male C3H/HeOuJ mice were randomly segregated into the following groups: sham-operated (sham), vehicle treatment and mesenteric ischemia reperfusion (MSIR) (vehicle-treated), magnolol treatment and MSIR (magnolol-treated), HTS treatment and MSIR (HTS-treated), as well as co-administration of magnolol plus HTS and MSIR (combined-treated). In MSIR, mice were subjected to mesenteric ischemia for 60 min followed by reperfusion for 30 min. Lung injury was evaluated by lung edema (water ratio) and myeloperoxide (MPO) activity; RNA expression of inducible nitric oxide synthetase (iNOS), TNF-α, and IL-6 were assayed by real time RT-PCR. The formation of peroxynitrite in plasma was assayed by the peroxynitrite-dependent oxidation of dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR 123) to rhodamine. RESULTS Compared with those in the sham-treated group, lung edema and MPO activity, expressions of iNOS, TNF-α and IL-6, and plasma peroxynitrite were significantly increased in the vehicle-treated group. Significant attenuations of these parameters were found in the magnolol-treated or HTS-treated animals. Combined treatment of magnolol and HTS further suppressed the lung edema, iNOS, and TNF-α expressions, and plasma peroxynitrite, compared with the results of a single treatment of magnolol or HTS. CONCLUSIONS Compared with single-agent use, co-administration of magnolol and HTS further decreases iNOS expression and plasma peroxynitrite as well as the degree of lung injury from MISR. These results may provide another treatment measure for post-injury immunomodulation.

Abstract
CONTEXT Hypertonic fluids restore cerebral perfusion with reduced cerebral edema and modulate inflammatory response to reduce subsequent neuronal injury and thus have potential benefit in resuscitation of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). OBJECTIVE To determine whether out-of-hospital administration of hypertonic fluids improves neurologic outcome following severe TBI. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial involving 114 North American emergency medical services agencies within the Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium, conducted between May 2006 and May 2009 among patients 15 years or older with blunt trauma and a prehospital Glasgow Coma Scale score of 8 or less who did not meet criteria for hypovolemic shock. Planned enrollment was 2122 patients. INTERVENTION A single 250-mL bolus of 7.5% saline/6% dextran 70 (hypertonic saline/dextran), 7.5% saline (hypertonic saline), or 0.9% saline (normal saline) initiated in the out-of-hospital setting. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Six-month neurologic outcome based on the Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE) (dichotomized as >4 or ≤4). RESULTS The study was terminated by the data and safety monitoring board after randomization of 1331 patients, having met prespecified futility criteria. Among the 1282 patients enrolled, 6-month outcomes data were available for 1087 (85%). Baseline characteristics of the groups were equivalent. There was no difference in 6-month neurologic outcome among groups with regard to proportions of patients with severe TBI (GOSE ≤4) (hypertonic saline/dextran vs normal saline: 53.7% vs 51.5%; difference, 2.2% [95% CI, -4.5% to 9.0%]; hypertonic saline vs normal saline: 54.3% vs 51.5%; difference, 2.9% [95% CI, -4.0% to 9.7%]; P = .67). There were no statistically significant differences in distribution of GOSE category or Disability Rating Score by treatment group. Survival at 28 days was 74.3% with hypertonic saline/dextran, 75.7% with hypertonic saline, and 75.1% with normal saline (P = .88). CONCLUSION Among patients with severe TBI not in hypovolemic shock, initial resuscitation with either hypertonic saline or hypertonic saline/dextran, compared with normal saline, did not result in superior 6-month neurologic outcome or survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation induce immunosuppression. CD4(+)CD25(+)Foxp3(+) regulatory T Cells (Foxp3(+) Tregs), iNOS and cytokines may affect these severe conditions such as acute respiratory distress syndrome and multiple organ failure after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation. Foxp3(+) Tregs have been described to be specific and play a key role in the control of the immune system. Immune condition may be restored by hypertonic saline resuscitation that inhibits pro-inflammatory effects of cytokine. Our aim was to investigate how hypertonic saline resuscitation affected Foxp3(+) Tregs after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation in relation to iNOS and cytokines. METHODS Male C57BL6/J and B6.129P2- NOS2(tm1Lau)/J (iNOS gene knockout) mice were used in creating hemorrhagic shock model. Mice were divided into two groups, each according to the type of resuscitation. (1) Wild HS: resuscitation with hypertonic saline (4 mL/Kg of 7.5% NaCl) and the shed blood (SB); (2) wild 2LR: resuscitation with lactated Ringer's solution and the SB; (3) iNOS knockout HS: similarly resuscitated as wild HS; (4) iNOS knockout 2LR: similarly resuscitated as wild 2LR. Samples of thymus and spleen were harvested at 2, 6, 24, 48, and 72 h after resuscitation. CD4(+) T cells and Foxp3(+) Tregs were analyzed at 24, 48, and 72 h. At 2, 6, 24, and 48 h, plasma cytokines were assayed and expression of iNOS (NOS2) was also measured by immunofluorescence. RESULTS NOS2 of HS and 2LR wild groups at 2 and 6 h in spleen increased compared with the control group. At 6h, NOS2 in HS wild group was significantly lower than in 2LR wild group. Plasma levels of interleukin (IL)-6, TNF- α, MCP-1, and IL-10 increased at 2 h. Both in wild type and iNOS knockout mice, hypertonic saline resuscitation decreased plasma IL-6, TNF-α, and MCP-1 levels at 2 h; CD4(+) T cells in spleen and thymus decreased at 24, 48, and 72 h, and Foxp3(+) Tregs in spleen at 48 h increased, however, hypertonic saline resuscitation did not affect the Foxp3(+). CONCLUSIONS These results show that in early phase, the inflammatory cytokines in plasma might affect iNOS expression and cytokines. Further, this study showed that hypertonic saline resuscitation and suppression of iNOS might improve immunosuppressive reaction after hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertonic saline (HS) restores prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2))-induced T-cell suppression in the presence of 1100 microM arginine. However, under arginine-free culture conditions, HS dose not restore T-cell proliferation. Therefore, we wanted to determine if HS can restore PGE(2)-induced T-cell suppression in the presence of 80 microM of arginine, the physiologically relevant arginine concentration. We also wanted to determine the concentration of arginine that induces HS restoration of PGE(2)-suppressed T-cell proliferation and whether HS restoration of T-cell dysfunction is dependent on the injection time of HS. MATERIALS AND METHODS Jurkat cells were cultured in media containing 0, 40, 80, 400, 800, or 1100 microM arginine. In both the PGE(2)-stimulated and HS-treated group, we measured cell proliferation using MTT assay and arginase activity. We also measured cell proliferation relative to HS injection time. RESULTS In 80 microM arginine, HS did not restore Jurkat cell proliferation that had been suppressed by PGE(2). Increased concentrations of arginine in the media increased MTT cell proliferation. In 800 microM arginine media, HS restored PGE(2)-suppressed Jurkat cell proliferation to normal. HS restored PGE(2)-suppressed Jurkat cell proliferation when it was added at 2 h, similar to at same time and 1 h after PGE(2) stimulation. CONCLUSIONS In order to restore PGE(2)-suppressed Jurkat cell proliferation, HS requires at least 800 microM arginine. HS restored PGE(2)-suppressed Jurkat cell proliferation even though HS was added at 2 h after PGE(2) stimulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation induce immunosuppression. CD4CD25 regulatory T cells and gammadeltaT cells may affect these immunosuppressive conditions. Hypertonic saline resuscitation reduces damage to organs and apoptosis and also restores immunosuppressive condition. We investigated how hypertonic saline resuscitation affected the induction of CD4CD25 regulatory T cells and gammadeltaT cells, and their apoptosis after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation, and its relationship to inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) (nitric oxide production). METHODS Male inbred C57BL6/J mice 8-week to 12-week-old as wild type and iNOS gene knock out (iNOS-/-), weighing 20 g to 35 g, were used. Hemorrhagic shock model of +/-40 mm Hg for 60 minutes was setup. Animals were randomly assigned to the following four resuscitation group: (1) wild HS: resuscitation with hypertonic saline (4 mL/Kg of 7.5% NaCl) and shed blood (SB), (2) wild 2LR: resuscitation with lactated Ringer's solution (two times the volume of the SB) and SB, (3) iNOS knockout HS, and (4) iNOS knockout 2LR. Untreated groups for wild and iNOS knockout mice were designated as control groups. Samples of thymus and spleen were harvested at 2 hours, 6 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours after resuscitation. CD4CD25 regulatory T cells and gammadeltaT cells were analyzed using three-color flow cytometry. RESULTS (1) gammadelta T cells increased earlier at 24 hours and CD4CD25 regulatory T cells increased later at 48 hours compared with controls in spleen of wild type (p < 0.01). (2) Hypertonic saline resuscitation suppressed gammadelta T cells compared with 2LR at 24 hours in iNOS knockout mice in spleen (p < 0.05). Hypertonic saline resuscitation increased apoptosis of CD4CD25 regulatory T cells at 48 hours in iNOS knockout mice in spleen (p < 0.01). (3) CD4CD25 regulatory T cells of iNOS knockout both in HS and 2LR groups at 48 hours decreased compared with wild type both in HS and 2LR groups in spleen (p < 0.01). (4) Apoptotic gammadelta T cells both in spleen and thymus in iNOS knockout mice at 48 hours increased compared with those in wild type (p < 0.05, respectively, except gammadelta T cells 2LR in spleen: p = 0.058). CONCLUSION gammadelta T cells increased earlier at 24 hours, whereas CD4CD25 regulatory T cells increased later at 48 hours in spleen of wild type. Hypertonic saline was effective without the presence of iNOS, i.e., decreased gammadelta T cells at 24 hours and increased apoptosis of CD4CD25 regulatory T cells at 48 hours. CD4CD25 regulatory T cells at 48 hours without iNOS decreased compared with those of wild type. gammadelta T cells at 48 hours induced apoptosis under the condition without iNOS in spleen and thymus. iNOS worked as an accelerating factor for immunosuppressive condition, affected apoptosis, and immunoenhancing effect by hypertonic saline.

Abstract
Introduction The innate immune response to trauma hemorrhage involves inflammatory mediators, thus promoting cellular dysfunction as well as cell death in diverse tissues. These effects ultimately bear the risk of post-traumatic complications such as organ dysfunction, multiple organ failure, or adult respiratory distress syndrome. In this study, a murine model of resuscitated hemorrhagic shock (HS) was used to determine the apoptosis in spleen as a marker of cellular injury and reduced immune functions. Methods Male C57BL-6 mice were subjected to sham operation or resuscitated HS. At t = 0 hours, t = 24 hours, and t = 72 hours, mice were euthanized and the spleens were removed and evaluated for apoptotic changes via DNA fragmentation, caspase activities, and activation of both extrinsic and intrinsic apoptotic pathways. Spleens from untreated mice were used as control samples. Results HS was associated with distinct lymphocytopenia as early as t = 0 hours after hemorrhage without regaining baseline levels within the consecutive 72 hours when compared with sham and control groups. A rapid activation of splenic apoptosis in HS mice was observed at t = 0 hours and t = 72 hours after hemorrhage and predominantly confirmed by increased DNA fragmentation, elevated caspase-3/7, caspase-8, and caspase-9 activities, and enhanced expression of intrinsic mitochondrial proteins. Accordingly, mitochondrial pro-apoptotic Bax and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins were inversely expressed within the 72-hour observation period, thereby supporting significant pro-apoptotic changes. Solely at t = 24 hours, expression of the anti-apoptotic Mcl-1 protein shows a significant increase when compared with sham-operated and control animals. Furthermore, expression of extrinsic death receptors were only slightly increased. Conclusion Our data suggest that HS induces apoptotic changes in spleen through a biphasic caspase-dependent mechanism and imply a detrimental imbalance of pro- and anti-apoptotic mitochondrial proteins Bax, Bcl-2, and Mcl-1, thereby promoting post-traumatic immunosuppression.

Abstract
Hypertonic saline solution (HS solution, NaCl 7.5%) has shown to restore hemodynamic parameters in hemorrhagic shock and to decrease the inflammation triggered by ischemia-reperfusion injury (I-R). Therefore, our objective was to investigate the effects of HS solution on the mechanisms involved in I-R, in an experimental model of controlled hemorrhagic shock. Wistar rats (280-350 g) were submitted to controlled bleeding, keeping the mean arterial pressure around 40 mmHg, for 1 h. After that, rats were randomized and treated with HS solution (4 mL/kg) or normal saline (34 mL/kg). There were no differences in hemodynamic parameters between both groups for at least 2 h after shock. No difference either was observed in reactive oxygen species generation (measured indirectly by malondialdehyde concentration) or cytokines (interleukins 6 and 10) production (measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Quantitative analysis of lung tissue showed a smaller neutrophil infiltration in animals that received HS solution. Moreover, the animals in the HS group showed an increased expression of heat shock protein 70. Therefore, we concluded that treatment of hemorrhagic shock with HS solution can decrease pulmonary inflammation and increase cellular protection by up-regulating heat shock protein 70 expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Activation of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) is a critical event leading to host tissue injury and organ damage after trauma. Hypertonic saline (HS) resuscitation prevents PMN activation in vitro and in animal models. Here, we studied how clinical parameters and timing requirements influence the efficacy of HS in suppressing PMN activation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-six injured patients and 16 healthy volunteers were included as study subjects. To study how clinical parameters affect the efficacy of HS, whole blood samples from patients were collected 24 hours after admission, treated with HS and N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMLP), and PMN oxidative burst and degranulation were measured using flow cytometry. We studied the effect of timing on the ability of HS to inhibit PMN function by exposing blood of healthy volunteers to plasma samples from trauma patients before or after the addition of fMLP and HS. RESULTS Age and gender did not significantly influence the effect of HS on PMN function. The suppressive effect of clinically relevant HS concentrations (20 mmol/L) on PMN oxidative burst correlated weakly with Sepsis Severity Score (SSS) and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) score but not with the Injury Severity Score (ISS) or Multiple Organ Failure score (MOF). There was no correlation between any of these clinical scores and degranulation. HS was significantly less effective in suppressing oxidative burst of PMN from patients with ISS >10, APACHE II >5, MOF >0, or SSS >1 compared with patients with ISS < or =10, APACHE II < or =5, MOF = 0, or SSS < or =1. HS more effectively suppressed PMN activation when PMN were pretreatment with HS, whereas it was less effective on PMN previously primed in vivo or in vitro by adding trauma plasma. HS was ineffective on PMN previously stimulated in vitro with fMLP. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that HS resuscitation may prevent PMN activation most effectively when patients are treated with HS early in the field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional resuscitation (CR) from hemorrhagic shock (HS) often restores and maintains hemodynamics but fails to restore intestinal perfusion. Post-CR intestinal ischemia has been implicated in the initiation of a gut-derived exaggerated systemic inflammatory response and in the progressive organ failure following HS. We propose that intestinal ischemia can be prevented with hypertonic saline resuscitation (HTSR). METHODS Anesthetized male Sprague-Dawley rats (200 to 215 g) were hemorrhaged to 50% of mean arterial pressure (MAP) for 60 minutes and randomly assigned to 1 of the resuscitation groups (n = 7 each): Group I: sham operation and no HS; Group II: HS + CR with the return of the shed blood + 2 volumes of normal saline (NS); Group III: HS + return of the shed blood + hypertonic saline (HTS); (7.5 % NaCl, 4 ml/kg); Group IV: HS + HTS, then return of the shed blood after 60 minutes; Group V: HS + HTS, then 1 volume of NS after 60 minutes. Microvascular diameters of inflow (A1) and proximal and distal premucosal arterioles (A3) in terminal ileum and flow in A1 were measured using in vivo videomicroscopy and optical Doppler velocimetry. Hematocrit, plasma osmolarity, and electrolytes were measured in Groups II and III. RESULTS HS caused a selective vasoconstriction in A1 arterioles that was not seen in the premucosal arterioles. CR restored and maintained MAP and caused generalized, progressive vasoconstriction at all intestinal arteriolar levels that is associated with hypoperfusion. HTSR failed to restore or maintain MAP or intestinal A1 arteriolar blood flow until the shed blood was returned. However, HTSR prevented the post-resuscitation, premucosal vasoconstriction and produced an insidious selective vasodilation in the A3 arterioles, which was most significant with early blood return (Group III). This selective arteriolar vasoactivity was associated with a significant improvement of endothelial cell function. Plasma hyperosmolality and hypernatremia persisted during the entire 2 hours post-resuscitation with HTS. CONCLUSIONS Small-volume HTSR can be used as a resuscitation regimen at the trauma scene and for selective clinical conditions where hypotensive resuscitation is indicated. HTSR improves intestinal perfusion by selective vasodilation of the precapillary arterioles even at MAP close to shock levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertonic saline (HS) resuscitation prevents neutrophil mediated injury after shock. The optimal dose is not known, but appears as a result of osmotic stress. We hypothesized that a dose dependent effect exists related to increasing tonicity and that the optimal gut protective dose would provide better protection against remote organ injury than large volume isotonic crystalloids. METHODS In experiment 1, rats were assigned to controls (sham/no resuscitation, sham/4 mL/kg 7.5% HS, superior mesenteric artery occlusion [SMAO]/no resuscitation), SMAO/equal volume (4 mL/kg 0.9% NS, 4 mL/kg 2.5% HS, 4 mL/kg 5% HS, 4 mL/kg 7.5% HS and 4 mL/kg 10% HS) or SMAO/equal sodium (33 mL/kg 0.9% NS, 12 mL/kg 2.5% HS, 6 mL/kg 5% HS, 4 mL/kg 7.5% HS, and 3 mL/kg 10% HS). In experiment 2, rats were assigned to the same control groups, and to either SMAO/NS (33 mL/kg 0.9% NS, equal salt load) or SMAO/HS (4 mL/kg 7.5% HS). The SMAO was clamped for 60 minutes and boluses given 5 minutes before clamp removal. After 6 hours of reperfusion, ileum and lungs were harvested for analysis of histologic injury, myeloperoxidase (MPO) as an index of neutrophil mediated injury, and serum ALT and AST drawn as markers of liver injury. RESULTS In experiment 1, equal volume and equal sodium decreased injury and inflammation with increasing tonicity in a dose dependent fashion, with the optimal effect seen at 7.5%. In experiment 2, NS resuscitation resulted in minimal improvement of SMAO-induced lung injury and inflammation or increases in serum ALT and AST whereas HS resuscitation significantly decreased these parameters. CONCLUSION The protective effect of HS is related to increased tonicity. While NS had little effect on SMAO-induced remote organ injury, optimal dose HS resuscitation was quite protective. This supports the growing evidence that HS protection may be because of its gut protective effects.

Abstract
Small volumes of hypertonic saline solution ([HS] 7.5% NaCl) produce systemic and microcirculatory benefits in hemorrhaged animals. Pentoxifylline (PTX) has beneficial effects when administrated after hemorrhagic shock. We tested the hypothesis that the combination of HS and PTX in the initial treatment of hemorrhagic shock provides synergistic hemodynamic benefits. Twenty-four dogs were bled to a target arterial blood pressure of 40 mm Hg and randomized into 3 groups: lactated Ringer's solution (33 mL/kg; n = 6); HS (7.5% NaCl 4 mL/kg; n = 9); and HS+PTX (7.5% NaCl 4 mL/kg + PTX 15 mg/kg; n = 9). Systemic hemodynamics were measured by Swan-Ganz and arterial catheters. Gastric mucosal-arterial Pco2 gradient (D(g-a)Pco2; gas tonometry), portal vein blood flow (ultrasonic flowprobe), and systemic and regional O2-derived variables were also evaluated. HS induced a partial increase in mean arterial blood pressure, cardiac output, and portal vein blood flow. In the HS+PTX group, we observed a significant, but transitory, increase in systemic oxygen delivery (180 +/- 17 versus 141 +/- 13 mL/min) in comparison to HS alone. PTX infusion during hypertonic resuscitation promoted a significant reduction in D(g-a)Pco2 (41.8 +/- 4.8 to 25.7 +/- 3.9 mm Hg) when compared with isolated HS infusion (48.2 +/- 6.4 to 39.4 +/- 5.5 mm Hg). We conclude that PTX as an adjunct drug during hypertonic resuscitation improves cardiovascular performance and gastric mucosal oxygenation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conventional fluid resuscitation with Ringer's lactated (RL) activates neutrophils and causes end-organ damage. We have previously shown that HSPTX, a combination of small volume hypertonic saline (HS) and pentoxifylline (PTX), a phosphodiesterase-inhibitor, downregulates in vitro neutrophil activation and proinflammatory mediator synthesis. Herein, we hypothesized that HSPTX decreases end-organ injury when compared with RL in an animal model of hemorrhagic shock. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were bled to a mean arterial pressure of 35 mm Hg for 1 hour. Animals were divided into 3 groups: sham (no shock, no resuscitation, n = 7), RL (32 mL/kg, n = 7), and HSPTX (7.5% NaCl 4 mL/kg + PTX 25 mg/kg; n = 7). Shed blood was infused after fluid resuscitation. Blood pressure was monitored until the end of resuscitation. Animals were sacrificed at 24 hour after resuscitation. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was obtained for white cell count (total and differential) and TNF-alpha and IL-1beta levels were measured by ELISA. Lung and intestinal injury at 24 hour were evaluated by histopathology. Organ damage was graded by a pathologist and a score was created (0 = no injury; 3 = severe). Lung neutrophil infiltration was evaluated by MPO immune staining. RESULTS There were no differences in mean arterial pressure between groups. At 24 hours, BALF leukocyte count was decreased by 30% in HSPTX animals (p < 0.01). TNF-alpha and IL-1beta levels were markedly decreased in HSPTX-resuscitated animals compared with their RL counterparts (p < 0.01). HSPTX-resuscitated animals (lung injury score = 1.0 +/- 0.4) had markedly decreased acute lung injury compared with RL-treated animals (2.5 +/- 0.3) (p < 0.01). RL resuscitation led to a two-fold increase in lung neutrophil infiltration whereas in HSPTX-treated animals, the number of MPO + cells was similar to sham animals (p < 0.001). Intestinal injury was markedly attenuated by HSPTX (1.1 +/- 0.3) compared with RL animals (2.6 +/- 0.4) (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS HSPTX, a small volume resuscitation strategy with marked immunomodulatory potential led to a marked decrease in end-organ damage. HSPTX is an attractive alternative to RL in hemorrhagic shock resuscitation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recognition of the limitations of standard crystalloid resuscitation has led to the search for alternative resuscitation strategies that might better limit the development of trauma-hemorrhage-induced organ dysfunction and systemic inflammation. Thus, the goal of this study was to compare the effects of two resuscitation strategies alone, and in combination, with those of standard resuscitation with Ringers lactate (RL). The two strategies were small volume resuscitation with hypertonic saline (HTS) and intraluminal inhibition of pancreatic proteases with the serine protease inhibitor nafamostat. METHODS Male rats were subjected to trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) or trauma sham-shock (T/SS) and resuscitated with RL, HTS, nafamostat, or the combination of HTS and nafamostat. The T/HS model consisted of a laparotomy plus 90 minutes of shock (MAP 30 mm Hg). Three hours after the end of the shock or sham-shock period, lung permeability, pulmonary neutrophil sequestration, neutrophil activation, red blood cell deformability, and gut injury were assessed. RESULTS Both HTS and nafamostat reduced T/HS-induced pulmonary permeability and neutrophil sequestration, as well as neutrophil activation as compared with resuscitation with RL. However, HTS was more effective than nafamostat in reducing T/HS-induced acute lung injury and neutrophil activation. Additionally, HTS, but not nafamostat, reduced T/HS-induced RBC rigidification. Lastly, gut injury after T/HS was reduced to the greatest extent by the combination of HTS plus nafamostat. CONCLUSION Small volume resuscitation with HTS is more effective than RL and nafamostat in limiting T/HS-induced acute lung injury, neutrophil activation and red blood cell injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertonic saline (HS) and pentoxifylline (PTX) have been shown to modulate polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) functions after shock and sepsis. We hypothesized that a combination of HS and PTX (HSPTX) would down-regulate PMN functions and inflammatory mediator synthesis more effectively than each alone, possibly by acting at different steps of the signaling pathways, ultimately leading to an enhanced effect. METHODS Whole blood from healthy volunteers was stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (100 microg/mL), f-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (1 micromol/L), and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (1 microg/mL). Baseline oxidative burst was measured by flow cytometry. Two different concentrations of NaCl to achieve increases of 10 mmol/L (HS10) and 40 mmol/L (HS40) above isotonicity, simulating increases in sodium levels seen after infusion of 3% HS and 7.5% HS, were used. PTX (2 mmol/L), HS10, HS40, HSPTX10, and HSPTX40 were added to whole blood concomitantly to the activators. PMN CD14 and CD11b expression were measured by flow cytometry and tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in LPS-stimulated whole blood. RESULTS The combination of PTX with HS10 and with HS40 markedly decreased LPS- (27 +/- 7 and 23 +/- 6 vs. 100; p < 0.01), f-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine- (54 +/- 11 and 55 +/- 8 vs. 100; p < 0.05), and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate- (30 +/- 4 and 54 +/- 9 vs. 100; p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively) induced PMN oxidative burst. Furthermore, a significant decrease in LPS-induced neutrophil CD11b expression after PTX treatment (79 +/- 5 vs. 100; p < 0.05) and HSPTX40 (68 +/- 7 vs. 100; p < 0.05) was observed. HSPTX10 (7 +/- 0.6; p < 0.001) or HSPTX40 (6 +/- 1.4; p < 0.001) markedly decreased tumor necrosis factor-alpha production to levels similar to those observed with PTX alone (6.5 +/- 0.5; p < 0.001) and significantly lower than HS10 (110 +/- 4.9; p < 0.001) and HS40 alone (83 +/- 1.5; p < 0.001) CONCLUSION HSPTX down-regulates neutrophil activation and proinflammatory mediator synthesis more effectively that HS alone. HSPTX may have significant applications as a novel fluid resuscitation strategy in hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
Small volume hypertonic resuscitation is a relatively new conceptual approach to shock therapy. It was originally based on the idea that a relatively large blood volume expansion could be obtained by administering a relatively small volume of fluid, taking advantage of osmosis. It was soon realized that the physiological vasodilator property of hypertonicity was a useful byproduct of small volume resuscitation in that it induced reperfusion of previously ischemic territories, even though such an effect encroached upon the malefic effects of the ischemia-reperfusion process. Subsequent research disclosed a number of previously unsuspected properties of hypertonic resuscitation, amongst them the correction of endothelial and red cell edema with significant consequences in terms of capillary blood flow. A whole set of actions of hypertonicity upon the immune system are being gradually uncovered, but the full implication of these observations with regard to the clinical scenario are still under study. Small volume resuscitation for shock is in current clinical use in some parts of the world, in spite of objections raised concerning its safety under conditions of uncontrolled bleeding. These objections stem mainly from experimental studies, but there are few signs that they may be of real clinical significance. This review attempts to cover the earlier and the more recent developments in this field.

Abstract
Inflammation and immunosuppression can cause acute respiratory distress syndrome, multiple organ failure, and sepsis, all of which are lethal posttraumatic complications in trauma patients. Prevention of the inflammation and immunosuppression has been a main focus of trauma researcher for many years. Recently, hypertonic resuscitation has attracted attention as a possible therapeutic approach to counteract such deleterious immune responses in trauma patients. We have begun to understand how hypertonic fluids affect immune cell signaling, and a number of experimental and clinical studies have started to reveal valuable information on the clinical efficacy and the limitations of hypertonic resuscitation fluids. Knowledge of how osmotic cues regulate immune cell function will enable us to fully exploit the clinical potential of hypertonic resuscitation to reduce inflammatory and anergic complications in trauma patients.

Abstract
Hypertonicity affects many parts of the immune system. Animal studies and experiments in isolated cell cultures show that hypertonicity reversibly suppresses several neutrophil functions and at the same time up-regulates T-lymphocyte function. Infusion of hypertonic saline with or without colloids may thus, besides providing efficient plasma volume expansion, ameliorate the detrimental consequences on the immune function of trauma, shock, reperfusion, and major surgery. However, the few clinical studies conducted to date, specifically addressing the immune effect of hypertonic saline infusion, have shown little, if any, effect on markers of immune function, and larger clinical trials have not demonstrated benefit in terms of morbidity or mortality. Thus, as opposed to animal and cell-culture studies, the immune-modulating properties of hypertonic saline infusion would appear to be of limited value in clinical practice. This review presents in vitro studies, animal experiments, and clinical trials which investigated the consequences of hypertonic saline on markers of immune function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertonic saline (HTS) has been shown to modulate the inflammatory response after shock. We have previously demonstrated that heme oygenase-1 (HO-1) induction is protective against gut dysfunction in models of shock-induced gut ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). We therefore hypothesized that HTS prevents gut inflammation, injury, and impaired transit by inducing HO-1 in a model of gut I/R. METHODS Rats underwent 60 minutes of superior mesenteric artery occlusion (SMAO) and then were resuscitated with 4 mL/kg of HTS, an equal volume of lactated Ringer's (LR) solution (4 mL/kg, low volume), or equal salt LR solution (32 mL/kg, high volume) and compared with SMAO alone or shams. A separate group was pretreated with the HO-1 blocker Sn protoporphyrin IX (SNP IX) before SMAO plus HTS. At 6 hours of reperfusion, transit was determined and ileum harvested for HO-1 (anti-inflammatory) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (proinflammatory) immunoreactivity, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, and histologic injury. Data are expressed as mean +/- SEM (analysis of variance). RESULTS Intestinal transit was severely impaired after SMAO (2.5 +/- 0.1), improved with low- and high-volume LR solution (3.2 +/- 0.2 and 3.1 +/- 0.1, not significant), but returned to sham (4.6 +/- 0.2) with HTS (4.8 +/- 0.2). Pretreatment with SNP abrogated this protective effect. Myeloperoxidase activity was significantly increased by SMAO (SMAO, 2.3 +/- 0.3; sham, 0.4 +/- 0.05), lessened by low- and high-volume LR solution (1.5 +/- 0.3 and 1.7 +/- 0.4), but returned to sham levels with HTS (1.0 +/- 0.01). Activity with SNP IX pretreatment was significantly increased (4.04 +/- 0.8). Mucosal injury followed a similar pattern. Inducible nitric oxide synthase was increased by SMAO and low- and high-volume LR solution (0.8 +/- 0.2, 0.8 +/- 0.03, and 0.8 +/- 0.02, respectively; sham, 0.5 +/- 0.02), but significantly reduced by HTS (0.7 +/- 0.02). HO-1 was induced by SMAO and low- and high-volume LR solution (0.33 +/- 0.02, 0.32 +/- 0.03, and 0.37 +/- 0.4, respectively; sham, 0.0 +/- 0.0), but was further increased with HTS (0.49 +/- 0.04). CONCLUSION HTS resuscitation protects against inflammation, injury, and impaired intestinal transit after gut I/R in part by inducing HO-1. This is a novel mechanism of HO-1 protection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although extracellular heat-shock protein 70 (Hsp70) potentially mediates an inflammatory response, the association of circulating Hsp70 with complications after surgery is poorly understood. METHODS Perioperative plasma concentrations of Hsp70 and interleukin-6 were measured by immunoassays in 64 consecutive patients undergoing liver resection. RESULTS Plasma concentrations of Hsp70 and interleukin-6 showed a striking increase immediately after surgery, and on postoperative day 1. The Hsp70 levels correlated significantly with operation time, hepatic ischemia time, postoperative alanine aminotransferase levels, and maximum interleukin-6 levels (P <0.01). The Hsp70 and interleukin-6 concentrations were associated significantly with postoperative infection (P <0.05); Hsp70 concentrations and blood loss but not interleukin-6 were associated significantly with postoperative organ dysfunction (P <0.05) in multivariate analyses. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that circulating Hsp70 and IL-6 potentially play a pivotal role in pathophysiology of postoperative infection, and that circulating Hsp70 and blood loss may represent a prognostic marker for postoperative organ dysfunction.

Abstract
UNLABELLED The role of pentoxifylline (PTX) as a resuscitation adjunct in hemorrhagic shock is unclear. PTX infusion into the pulmonary artery and its effects on cardiac performance and oxygen utilization have not been defined. We hypothesized that pulmonary PTX is superior to systemic PTX or lactated Ringer's (LR) solution alone. The effects of LR solution, systemic PTX, and pulmonary PTX on cardiac performance and oxygen utilization in a hemorrhagic shock model in dogs were compared. Animals were bled to a mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) of 40 mm Hg maintained for 30 min and randomized into 3 resuscitation groups: LR solution (2x shed blood), systemic PTX (10 mg/kg bolus i.v.) in addition to LR solution (2x shed blood) + PTX (5 mg/kg for 45 min i.v.), and pulmonary PTX (10 mg/kg bolus + 5 mg/kg for 45 min via a pulmonary artery catheter) plus LR solution (2x shed blood, i.v.). Arterial blood gases, hemoglobin levels, MAP, cardiac index, systemic vascular resistance index, pulmonary vascular resistance index, oxygen delivery, oxygen consumption, and oxygen extraction ratio (O(2)ER) were measured serially. No differences in blood loss, hemoglobin, and MAP were observed. Pulmonary PTX increased cardiac index to levels more than baseline (P = 0.012) and decreased systemic vascular resistance index and pulmonary vascular resistance index to levels less than baseline (P < 0.0001). Pulmonary PTX increased oxygen delivery and oxygen consumption to baseline levels. Postresuscitation O(2)ER levels in LR-treated animals remained more than baseline (P < 0.0001). Systemic and pulmonary PTX significantly decreased O(2)ER compared with shock levels. PTX resuscitation is superior compared with LR solution alone. Intraarterial pulmonary PTX administration is safe, and improves cardiac performance as well as O(2) utilization. IMPLICATIONS This study shows that a novel route (via the pulmonary circulation) used to administer pentoxifylline after hemorrhagic shock leads to superior cardiac performance in comparison with administration via lactated Ringer's solution or i.v. systemic pentoxifylline.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We hypothesized that bone marrow failure after hemorrhagic shock might be secondary to impaired apoptosis regulation. Our objective was to assess the morphologic alterations and the rate of apoptosis in bone marrow after hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation. METHODS Under pentobarbital anesthesia, Wistar rats (n = 70) underwent femoral vessel cannulation. The hemorrhagic shock model involved a controlled retrieval of blood, maintaining mean blood pressure at 40 +/- 5 mm Hg during 50 minutes. During the resuscitation period, lactated Ringer's (twice the blood volume retrieved, group LR) or NaCl 7.5% (4 mL/kg, group HS) was infused, followed by the previously retrieved blood. Bone marrow was collected through left femoral puncture. Morphology was assessed by Leishmann-stained smears, and apoptosis was assessed through terminal deoxynucleotide transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling assay. Analysis of variance and Tukey's test were applied for statistical treatment, considering p < 0.05 as significant. RESULTS LR animals presented a statistically significant decrease in the lymphocytic series (LR, 24.2 +/- 4.2%; Sham, 55.1 +/- 6.6%), together with an increase in the percentage of granulocyte (LR, 51.4% +/- 2.3%; Sham, 31.5 +/- 2.9%) and monocyte precursors (LR, 7.3 +/- 1.3%; Sham, 3.3 +/- 1.1%), detected 72 hours after shock (p < 0.05). Both LR and HS groups presented a significant increase in apoptosis, when compared with the sham group (LR, 13.1 +/- 0.5%; HS, 12.2 +/- 0.7%; Sham, 6.8 +/- 0.4%). The alterations detected in the bone marrow morphology of LR group were not observed in HS animals. CONCLUSION There was an increase in bone marrow apoptosis after hemorrhagic shock. The type of resuscitation scheme used did influence bone marrow morphology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The treatment of hemorrhagic shock (HeS) with large volumes of fluid does not ensure an adequate peripheral perfusion or prevent inflammatory activation despite hemodynamic recovery. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of hypertonic saline (HTS) and isotonic saline (IS) solutions on oxygenation, perfusion, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-6 levels, accumulation of polymorphonuclear neutrophils, and pulmonary perivascular edema in the treatment of controlled HeS in rats. METHODS Wistar rats submitted to HeS for 50 minutes (mean arterial pressure, 45-50 mm Hg) were treated with IS at three times the bled volume or with 5 mL/kg HTS. RESULTS The animals treated with HTS presented higher oxygenation and perfusion indices (p < 0.0001); lower arterial lactate, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and interleukin-6 levels (p < 0.0001); less pulmonary perivascular edema and polymorphonuclear neutrophil sequestration (p < 0.0001); and lower mortality (p < 0.01) than those that received IS. CONCLUSION HTS improved tissue oxygenation and perfusion and reduced systemic and pulmonary inflammatory responses compared with IS in the treatment of HeS in rats.
