Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:5129.

Abstract
The normal growth and development of skeletal muscle is essential for the health of the body. The regulation of skeletal muscle by intestinal microorganisms and their metabolites has been continuously demonstrated. Acetate is the predominant short-chain fatty acids synthesized by gut microbiota through the fermentation of dietary fiber; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms governing the interaction between acetate and skeletal muscle during the rapid growth stage remains to be further elucidated. Herein, specific pathogen-free (SPF) mice, germ-free (GF) mice, and germ-free mice supplemented with sodium acetate (GS) were used to evaluate the effects of acetate on the skeletal muscle growth and development of young mice with gut microbiota deficiency. We found that the concentration of serum acetate, body mass gain, succinate dehydrogenase activity, and expression of the myogenesis maker gene of skeletal muscle in the GS group were higher than those in the GF group, following sodium acetate supplementation. Furthermore, the transcriptome analysis revealed that acetate activated the biological processes that regulate skeletal muscle growth and development in the GF group, which are otherwise inhibited due to a gut microbiota deficiency. The in vitro experiment showed that acetate up-regulated Gm16062 to promote skeletal muscle cell differentiation. Overall, our findings proved that acetate promotes skeletal muscle growth and development in young mice via increasing Gm16062 expression.

Abstract
The term "cocoon syndrome" defines a sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP) that involves a chronic fibrotic inflammatory reaction of the parietal peritoneum and of the viscera leading to a complete sclerosis. The cocoon that is formed causes an incarceration of the intestinal loops with severe complications leading to high mortality. We are presenting the case of a 15-year-old young man that underwent surgery for appendectomy and that was evaluated for having a regular abdominal state. During the post-surgery period, however, several episodes of intestinal occlusion required further surgical interventions leading to a right hemicolectomy. The presence of a fibrotic-adhesive ligneous peritonitis with blended intestinal loops, severely thickened walls, and intestinal scaring stenosis was observed during his second surgical operation. A stenosis of the colostomy led to a worsening of the vital signs of the young man with the onset of a cardiac failure and subsequent decease. Macroscopic autopsy examination and histological analysis confirmed the severe obstructive adhesive encapsulating abdominal context allowing to trace back the cause of death to a cocoon syndrome. Since no predisposing factor could be found, we hypothesized that this case could be characterized by an excessive peritoneal reactivity due to surgical appendectomy. Cocoon syndrome is a rare pathology, and its microscopic features are seldomly observed and could be underestimated. We present a directly observed case with a very substantial macroscopic and microscopic context.

Abstract
A key metabolic activity of the gut microbiota is the fermentation of non-digestible carbohydrate, which generates short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) as the principal end products. SCFAs are absorbed from the gut lumen and modulate host metabolic responses at different organ sites. Evidence suggests that these organ sites include skeletal muscle, the largest organ in humans, which plays a pivotal role in whole-body energy metabolism. In this Review, we evaluate the evidence indicating that SCFAs mediate metabolic cross-talk between the gut microbiota and skeletal muscle. We discuss the effects of three primary SCFAs (acetate, propionate and butyrate) on lipid, carbohydrate and protein metabolism in skeletal muscle, and we consider the potential mechanisms involved. Furthermore, we highlight the emerging roles of these gut-derived metabolites in skeletal muscle function and exercise capacity, present limitations in current knowledge and provide suggestions for future work.

Abstract
Drawing from diverse sources including epidemiological and clinical data, surgical observations, histopathology, serosal healing responses to fibrin and fibrinolysis, tissue reaction to chronic exposure, and to exo and endotoxins, new information on mesothelial stem cells, autocrine and paracrine influences on their proliferation and collagen synthesis, and the effect of glucose on fibroconnective tissue, we have begun to piece together the pathogenetic jigsaw of fibrosis in continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). The reaction of peritoneal mesothelium and stroma to the stress of continual dialysis results in a spectrum of alterations ranging from opacification through a tanned peritoneum syndrome to sclerosing encapsulating peritonitis (SEP). Any agent that causes irritation of the mesothelial layer and induces serositis, or single severe or multiple episodes of peritonitis resulting in mesothelial loss, predisposes the peritoneum to fibroneogenesis. An accurate definition of the histopathological changes of peritoneal thickening is a prerequisite for defining pathogenesis. This paper is the first attempt to create such a framework. It is evident from many areas of study that fibrin deposition and fibrinolysis, hyalinization of the superficial stromal collagen possibly tanned through nonenzymatic glycosylation by dialysate glucose and the proliferative potential of mesothelial stem cells play an important and possibly interdependent role in excessive fibroneogenesis in certain patients on CAPD. Many of the pieces of the jigsaw are obviously still missing, and the picture is most surely incomplete. Nevertheless, the outline of the pathologic and etiologic landscape should now be discernible.

Abstract
Intravenous fluid therapy is the most common intervention received by acutely ill patients. Historically, saline (0.9% sodium chloride) has been the most frequently administered intravenous fluid, especially in North America. Balanced crystalloid solutions (e.g., lactated Ringer's, Plasma-Lyte) are an increasingly used alternative to saline. Balanced crystalloids have a sodium, potassium, and chloride content closer to that of extracellular fluid and, when given intravenously, have fewer adverse effects on acid-base balance. Preclinical research has demonstrated that saline may cause hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis, inflammation, hypotension, acute kidney injury, and death. Studies of patients and healthy human volunteers suggest that even relatively small volumes of saline may exert physiological effects. Randomized trials in the operating room have demonstrated that using balanced crystalloids rather than saline prevents the development of hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis and may reduce the need for vasopressors. Observational studies among critically ill adults have associated receipt of balanced crystalloids with lower rates of complications, including acute kidney injury and death. Most recently, large randomized trials among critically ill adults have examined whether balanced crystalloids result in less death or severe renal dysfunction than saline. Although some of these trials are still ongoing, a growing body of evidence raises fundamental concerns regarding saline as the primary intravenous crystalloid for critically ill adults and highlights fundamental unanswered questions for future research about fluid therapy in critical illness.

Abstract
Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a rare but serious condition that results in (a) encapsulation of bowel within a thickened fibrocollagenous peritoneal membrane and (b) recurrent episodes of bowel obstruction. Although described by various names in the literature, the preferred term is encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis because it best describes the morphologic and histologic changes in this disorder. The etiology of EPS is multifactorial, with a wide variety of implicated predisposing factors that disrupt the normal physiologic function of the peritoneal membrane-prime among these factors being long-term peritoneal dialysis and bacterial peritoneal infections, especially tuberculosis. The clinical features of EPS are usually nonspecific, and knowledge of the radiologic features is necessary to make a specific diagnosis. The findings on radiographs are usually normal. Images from small-bowel follow-through studies show the bowel loops conglomerated in a concertina-like fashion with a serpentine arrangement in a fixed U-shaped configuration. US demonstrates a "cauliflower" appearance of bowel with a narrow base, as well as a "trilaminar" appearance depicted especially with use of high-resolution US probes. CT is the imaging modality of choice and allows identification of the thickened contrast material-enhanced abnormal peritoneal membrane and the encapsulated clumped bowel loops. In addition, CT can potentially help identify the cause of EPS (omental granuloma in tuberculosis), as well as the complications of EPS (bowel obstruction). Conservative medical treatment and surgical therapy early in the course of EPS have been used for management of the condition. The purpose of this article is to review the nomenclature and etiopathogenesis of EPS, describe the multimodality imaging appearances of EPS, including differentiating its features from those of other conditions mimicking EPS, and give an overview of management options. Online DICOM image stacks are available for this article. ©RSNA, 2018.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanisms of acid-base changes during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) remain unclear. We tested the hypothesis that, when used as CPB pump prime solutions, Plasma-Lyte 148 (PL) and Hartmann's solution (HS) have differential mechanisms of action in their contribution to acid-base changes. METHODS We performed a prospective, double-blind, randomized trial in adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with CPB. Participants received a CPB prime solution of 2000 mL, with either PL or HS. The primary endpoint was the standard base excess (SBE) value measured at 60 minutes after full CPB flows (SBE60min). Secondary outcomes included changes in SBE, pH, chloride, sodium, lactate, gluconate, acetate, strong ion difference and strong ion gap at two (T2min), five (T5min), ten (T10min), thirty (T30min) and sixty (T60min) minutes on CPB. The primary outcome was measured using a two-tailed Welch's t-test. Repeated measures ANOVA was used to test for differences between time points. RESULTS Twenty-five participants were randomized to PL and 25 to HS. Baseline characteristics, EURO and APACHE scores, biochemistry, hematology and volumes of cardioplegia were similar. Mean (SD) SBE at T60min was -1.3 (1.4) in the PL group and -0.1 (2.7) in the HS group; p=0.55. No significant differences in SBE between the groups was observed during the first 60 minutes (p=0.48). During CPB, there was hyperacetatemia and hypergluconatemia in the PL group and hyperlactatemia and hyperchloremia in the HS group. No significant difference between the groups in plasma bicarbonate levels and total weak acid levels were found. Complications and intensive care unit and hospital length of stays were similar. CONCLUSIONS During CPB, PL and HS did not cause a significant metabolic acidosis. There was hyperacetatemia and hypergluconatemia with PL and hyperchloremia and hyperlactatemia with HS. These physiochemical effects appear clinically innocuous.

Abstract
Intravenous fluid therapy can alter plasma acid-base balance. The Stewart approach to acid-base balance is uniquely suited to identify and quantify the effects of the cationic and anionic constituents of crystalloid solutions on plasma pH. The plasma strong ion difference (SID) and weak acid concentrations are similar to those of the administered fluid, more so at higher administration rates and with larger volumes. A crystalloid's in vivo effects on plasma pH are described by 3 general rules: SID > [HCO3-] increases plasma pH (alkalosis); SID < [HCO3-] decreases plasma pH (alkalosis); and SID = [HCO3-] yields no change in plasma pH. The in vitro pH of commercially prepared crystalloid solutions has little to no effect on plasma pH because of their low titratable acidity. Appreciation of IV fluid composition and an understanding of basic physicochemical principles provide therapeutically valuable insights about how and why fluid therapy can produce and correct alterations of plasma acid-base equilibrium. The ideal balanced crystalloid should (1) contain species-specific concentrations of key electrolytes (Na+ , Cl- , K+ , Ca++ , Mg++ ), particularly Na+ and Cl- ; (2) maintain or normalize acid-base balance (provide an appropriate SID); and (3) be isosmotic and isotonic (not induce inappropriate fluid shifts) with normal plasma.

[PMID: 27896148 PMCID: PMC5109922 DOI: 10.5492/wjccm.v5.i4.235] [Citation(s) in RCA: 51] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2016] [Revised: 07/06/2016] [Accepted: 10/09/2016] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
AIM To outline the physiochemical properties and specific clinical uses of Plasma-Lyte 148 as choice of solution for fluid intervention in critical illness, surgery and perioperative medicine.
METHODS We performed an electronic literature search from Medline and PubMed (via Ovid), anesthesia and pharmacology textbooks, and online sources including studies that compared Plasma-Lyte 148 to other crystalloid solutions. The following keywords were used: “surgery”, “anaesthesia”, “anesthesia”, “anesthesiology”, “anaesthesiology”, “fluids”, “fluid therapy”, “crystalloid”, “saline”, “plasma-Lyte”, “plasmalyte”, “hartmann’s”, “ringers”“acetate”, “gluconate”, “malate”, “lactate”. All relevant articles were accessed in full. We summarized the data and reported the data in tables and text.
RESULTS We retrieved 104 articles relevant to the choice of Plasma-Lyte 148 for fluid intervention in critical illness, surgery and perioperative medicine. We analyzed the data and reported the results in tables and text.
CONCLUSION Plasma-Lyte 148 is an isotonic, buffered intravenous crystalloid solution with a physiochemical composition that closely reflects human plasma. Emerging data supports the use of buffered crystalloid solutions in preference to saline in improving physicochemical outcomes. Further large randomized controlled trials assessing the comparative effectiveness of Plasma-Lyte 148 and other crystalloid solutions in measuring clinically important outcomes such as morbidity and mortality are needed.

Soussi S, Ferry A, Chaussard M, Legrand M. Chloride toxicity in critically ill patients: What's the evidence? Anaesth Crit Care Pain Med 2016; 36:125-130.

Abstract
Crystalloids have become the fluid of choice in critically ill patients and in the operating room both for fluid resuscitation and fluid maintenance. Among crystalloids, NaCl 0.9% has been the most widely used fluid. However, emerging evidence suggests that administration of 0.9% saline could be harmful mainly through high chloride content and that the use of fluid with low chloride content may be preferable in major surgery and intensive care patients. Administration of NaCl 0.9% is the leading cause of metabolic hyperchloraemic acidosis in critically ill patients and side effects might target coagulation, renal function, and ultimately increase mortality. More balanced solutions therefore may be used especially when large amount of fluids are administered in high-risk patients. In this review, we discuss physiological background favouring the use of balanced solutions as well as the most recent clinical data regarding the use of crystalloid solutions in critically ill patients and patients undergoing major surgery.

Abstract
Background Tissue hypoperfusion and inflammation in sepsis can lead to organ failure including kidney and liver. In sepsis, mortality of acute kidney injury increases by more than 50%. Which type of volume replacement should be used is still an ongoing debate. We investigated the effect of different volume strategies on inflammatory mediators in kidney and liver in an early sepsis model. Material and Methods Adult male Wistar rats were subjected to sepsis by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) and assigned to three fluid replenishment groups. Animals received 30mL/kg of Ringer’s lactate (RL) for 2h, thereafter RL (75mL/kg), hydroxyethyl starch (HES) balanced (25mL/kg), containing malate and acetate, or HES saline (25mL/kg) for another 2h. Kidney and liver tissue was assessed for inflammation. In vitro rat endothelial cells were exposed to RL, HES balanced or HES saline for 2h, followed by stimulation with tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) for another 4h. Alternatively, cells were exposed to malate, acetate or a mixture of malate and acetate, reflecting the according concentration of these substances in HES balanced. Pro-inflammatory cytokines were determined in cell supernatants. Results Cytokine mRNA in kidney and liver was increased in CLP animals treated with HES balanced compared to RL, but not after application of HES saline. MCP-1 was 3.5fold (95% CI: 1.3, 5.6) (p<0.01) and TNF-α 2.3fold (95% CI: 1.2, 3.3) (p<0.001) upregulated in the kidney. Corresponding results were seen in liver tissue. TNF-α-stimulated endothelial cells co-exposed to RL expressed 3529±1040pg/mL MCP-1 and 59±23pg/mL CINC-1 protein. These cytokines increased by 2358pg/mL (95% CI: 1511, 3204) (p<0.001) and 29pg/ml (95% CI: 14, 45) (p<0.01) respectively when exposed to HES balanced instead. However, no further upregulation was observed with HES saline. PBS supplemented with acetate increased MCP-1 by 1325pg/mL (95% CI: 741, 1909) (p<0.001) and CINC-1 by 24pg/mL (95% CI: 9, 38) (p<0.01) compared to RL. Malate as well as HES saline did not affect cytokine expression. Conclusion We identified HES balanced and specifically its component acetate as pro-inflammatory factor. How important this additional inflammatory burden on kidney and liver function is contributing to the sepsis-associated inflammatory burden in early sepsis needs further evaluation.

Abstract
Endocrine erythropoietin (Epo), which is synthesized in the kidney or liver of adult mammals, controls erythrocyte production and is regulated by the stress-responsive transcription factor Hypoxia Inducible Factor 2 (HIF-2). We previously reported that the lysine acetyltransferase Cbp is required for HIF-2α acetylation and efficient HIF-2 dependent Epo induction during hypoxia. We now show these processes require acetate-dependent acetyl CoA synthetase 2 (Acss2). In Hep3B hepatoma cells and in Epo-generating organs of hypoxic or acutely anemic mice, acetate levels increase and Acss2 is required for HIF-2α acetylation, Cbp/HIF-2α complex formation and recruitment to the Epo enhancer, and efficient Epo induction. In acutely anemic mice, acetate supplementation augments stress erythropoiesis in an Acss2-dependent manner. In acquired and genetic chronic anemia mouse models, acetate supplementation also increases Epo expression and resting hematocrits. Thus, a mammalian stress-responsive acetate switch controls HIF-2 signaling and Epo induction during pathophysiological states marked by tissue hypoxia.

Abstract
Sodium bicarbonate is central to the treatment of many poisonings. When it was placed on the FDA drug shortage list in 2012, alternative treatment strategies to specific poisonings were considered. Many hospital pharmacies, poison centers, and medical toxicologists proposed sodium acetate as an adequate alternative, despite a paucity of data to support its use in medical toxicology. The intention of this review is to educate the clinician on the use of sodium acetate and to advise them on the potential adverse events when given in excess. We conducted a literature search focused on the pharmacology of sodium acetate, its use as a buffer in pathologic acidemia and dialysis baths, and potential adverse events associated with excess sodium acetate infusion. It appears safe to replace sodium bicarbonate infusion with sodium acetate on an equimolar basis. The metabolism of acetate, however, is more complex than bicarbonate. Future prospective studies will be needed to confirm the efficacy of sodium acetate in the treatment of the poisoned patient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several different crystalloid solutions are available for i.v. fluid administration but there is little information about their specific advantages and disadvantages. METHODS We performed a systematic search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL up until May 17, 2012, selecting all prospective human studies that directly compared any near-isotonic crystalloids and reported any outcome. RESULTS From the 5060 articles retrieved in the search, only 28 met the selection criteria. There was considerable heterogeneity among the studies. Several articles reported an increased incidence of hyperchloraemic acidosis with the use of normal saline, and others an increase in blood lactate levels when large amounts of Ringer's lactate solutions were infused. From the limited data available, normal saline administration appears to be associated with increased blood loss and greater red blood cell transfusion volumes in high-risk populations compared to Ringer's lactate. Possible effects of the different solutions on renal function, inflammatory response, temperature, hepatic function, glucose metabolism, and splanchnic perfusion are also reported. The haemodynamic profiles of all the solutions were similar. CONCLUSIONS Different solutions have different effects on acid-base status, electrolyte levels, coagulation, renal, and hepatic function. Whether these differences have clinical consequences remains unclear.

Abstract
The use of hydroxyethyl starch (HES) in sepsis has been shown to increase mortality and acute kidney injury. However, the knowledge of the exact mechanism by which several fluids, especially starch preparations may impair end-organ function particularly in the kidney, is still missing. The aim of this study was to measure the influence of different crystalloid and colloid fluid compositions on the inflammatory response in the kidney, the liver and the lung using a rodent model of acute endotoxemia. Rats were anesthetized and mechanically ventilated. Lipopolysaccharide (5 mg/kg) was administered intravenously. After one hour crystalloids [lactate-buffered (RLac) or acetate-buffered (RAc)] were infused i.v. (30 ml/kg) in all groups. At 2 hours rats either received different crystalloids (75 ml/kg of RLac or RAc) or colloids (25 ml/kg of HES in saline or HES in RAc or gelatin in saline). Expression of messenger RNA for cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1 (CINC-1), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), necrosis factor α (TNFα) and intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) was assessed in kidney, liver and lung tissue by real-time PCR after 4 hours. The use of acetate-buffered solutions was associated with a significantly higher expression of CINC-1 and TNFα mRNA in the liver, in the kidney and in the lung. Only marginal effects of gelatin and hydroxyethyl starch on mRNA expression of inflammatory mediators were observed. The study provides evidence that the type of buffering agent of different colloidal and crystalloid solutions might be a crucial factor determining the extent of early end-organ inflammatory response in sepsis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review explores the contemporary definition of the term 'balanced crystalloid' and outlines optimal design features and their underlying rationale. RECENT FINDINGS Crystalloid interstitial expansion is unavoidable, but also occurs with colloids when there is endothelial glycocalyx dysfunction. Reduced chloride exposure may lessen kidney dysfunction and injury with a possible mortality benefit. Exact balance from an acid-base perspective is achieved with a crystalloid strong ion difference of 24 mEq/l. This can be done simply by replacing 24 mEq/l of chloride in 0.9% sodium chloride with bicarbonate or organic anion bicarbonate substitutes. Potassium, calcium and magnesium additives are probably unnecessary. Large volumes of mildly hypotonic crystalloids such as lactated Ringer's solution reduce extracellular tonicity in volunteers and increase intracranial pressure in nonbrain-injured experimental animals. A total cation concentration of 154 mmol/l with accompanying anions provides isotonicity. Of the commercial crystalloids, Ringer's acetate solution is close to balanced from both acid-base and tonicity perspectives, and there is little current evidence of acetate toxicity in the context of volume loading, in contrast to renal replacement. SUMMARY The case for balanced crystalloids is growing but unproven. A large randomized controlled trial of balanced crystalloids versus 0.9% sodium chloride is the next step.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION As even small concentrations of acetate in the plasma result in pro-inflammatory and cardiotoxic effects, it has been removed from renal replacement fluids. However, Plasma-Lyte 148 (Plasma-Lyte), an electrolyte replacement solution containing acetate plus gluconate is a common circuit prime for cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB). No published data exist on the peak plasma acetate and gluconate concentrations resulting from the use of Plasma-Lyte 148 during CPB. METHODS Thirty adult patients were systematically allocated 1:1 to CPB prime with either bicarbonate-balanced fluid (24 mmol/L bicarbonate) or Plasma-Lyte 148. Arterial blood acetate, gluconate and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were measured immediately before CPB (T1), three minutes after CPB commencement (T2), immediately before CPB separation (T3), and four hours post separation (T4). RESULTS Acetate concentrations (normal 0.04 to 0.07 mmol/L) became markedly elevated at T2, where the Plasma-Lyte group (median 3.69, range (2.46 to 8.55)) exceeded the bicarbonate group (0.16 (0.02 to 3.49), P < 0.0005). At T3, levels had declined but the differential pattern remained apparent (Plasma-Lyte 0.35 (0.00 to 1.84) versus bicarbonate 0.17 (0.00 to 0.81)). Normal circulating acetate concentrations were not restored until T4. Similar gluconate concentration profiles and inter-group differences were seen, with a slower T3 decay. IL-6 increased across CPB, peaking at T4, with no clear difference between groups. CONCLUSIONS Use of acetate containing prime solutions result in supraphysiological plasma concentrations of acetate. The use of acetate-free prime fluid in CPB significantly reduced but did not eliminate large acetate surges in cardiac surgical patients. Complete elimination of acetate surges would require the use of acetate free bolus fluids and cardioplegia solutions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The recommendations for perioperative maintenance fluid in children have been adapted from hypotonic to isotonic electrolyte solutions with lower glucose concentrations (1-2.5% instead of 5%) to avoid hyponatremia or hyperglycemia. OBJECTIVE The objective of this prospective animal study was to determine the margin of safety of a novel isotonic-balanced electrolyte solution with 1% glucose (BS-G1) in comparison with normal saline with 1% glucose (NS-G1) in the case of accidental hyperhydration with a focus on acid-base electrolyte balance, glucose concentration, osmolality and intracranial pressure in piglets. METHODS Ten piglets (bodyweight 11.8 +/- 1.8 kg) were randomly assigned to receive either 100 ml.kg(-1) of BS-G1 or NS-G1 within one hour. Before, during and after fluid administration, electrolytes, lactate, hemoglobin, hematocrit, glucose, osmolality and acid-base parameters were measured. RESULTS Unlike BS-G1, administration of NS-G1 produced mild hyperchloremic acidosis (base excess BS-G1 vs NS-G1, baseline 1.9 +/- 1.7 vs 2.9 +/- 0.9 mmol.l(-1), study end 0.2 +/- 1.7 vs -2.7 +/- 0.5 mmol.l(-1), P < 0.05, chloride BS-G1 vs NS-G1 baseline 102.4 +/- 3.4 vs 102.0 +/- 0.7 mmol.l(-1), study end 103.4 +/- 1.8 vs 109.0 +/- 1.4 mmol.l(-1)P < 0.05). The addition of 1% glucose led to moderate hyperglycemia (P < 0.05) with a concomitant increase in serum osmolality in both groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Both solutions showed a wide margin of safety in the case of accidental hyperhydration with less acid-base electrolyte changes when using BS-G1. This novel solution could therefore enhance patient's safety within the scope of perioperative volume management.

Abstract
Fluid-induced metabolic acidosis can be harmful and can complicate cardiopulmonary bypass. In an attempt to prevent this disturbance, we designed a bicarbonate-based crystalloid circuit prime balanced on physico-chemical principles with a strong ion difference of 24 mEq/l and compared its acid-base effects with those of Plasma-Lyte 148, a multiple electrolyte replacement solution containing acetate plus gluconate totalling 50 mEq/l. Twenty patients with normal acid-base status undergoing elective cardiac surgery were randomised 1:1 to a 2 litre prime of either bicarbonate-balanced fluid or Plasma-Lyte 148. With the trial fluid, metabolic acid-base status was normal following bypass initiation (standard base excess 0.1 (1.3) mEq/l, mean, SD), whereas Plasma-Lyte 148 produced a slight metabolic acidosis (standard base excess -2.2 (2.1) mEq/l). Estimated group difference after baseline adjustment was 3.6 mEq/l (95% confidence interval 2.1 to 5.1 mEq/l, P=0.0001). By late bypass, mean standard base excess in both groups was normal (0.8 (2.2) mEq/l vs. -0.8 (1.3) mEq/l, P=0.5). Strong ion gap values were unaltered with the trial fluid, but with Plasma-Lyte 148 increased significantly on bypass initiation (15.2 (2.5) mEq/l vs. 2.5 (1.5) mEq/l, P < 0.0001), remaining elevated in late bypass (8.4 (3.4) mEq/l vs. 5.8 (2.4) mEq/l, P < 0.05). We conclude that a bicarbonate-based crystalloid with a strong ion difference of 24 mEq/l is balanced for cardiopulmonary bypass in patients with normal acid-base status, whereas Plasma-Lyte 148 triggers a surge of unmeasured anions, persisting throughout bypass. These are likely to be gluconate and/or acetate. Whether surges of exogenous anions during bypass can be harmful requires further study.

Abstract
Evidence is emerging that elevated concentrations of the intermediates of the citric acid cycle may contribute to unmeasured anions in critical illness. Both the anion gap and the strong ion gap are used as scanning tools for recognition of these anions. The mechanisms underlying these elevations and their significance require further clarification.

Abstract
Buffer transport in peritoneal dialysis. The success of peritoneal dialysis as a robust modality of renal replacement therapy has invited a quest for ameliorations in its underlying technology aimed at enhancing patient satisfaction and preserving the central instrument of the therapy, namely the peritoneal membrane. The health and longevity of the membrane have motivated and continue to drive a series of iterative innovations in the composition, methods of production, and delivery of dialysis solutions. It is the purpose of this article to review aspects of these innovations pertaining to buffer composition in dialysis solutions and the peritoneal mechanisms of buffer transport.

Abstract
To investigate the efficacy of the ingestion of vinegar in aiding recovery from fatigue, we examined the effect of dietary acetic acid, the main component of vinegar, on glycogen repletion in rats. Rats were allowed access to a commercial diet twice daily for 6 d. After 15 h of food deprivation, they were either killed immediately or given 2 g of a diet containing 0 (control), 0.1, 0.2 or 0.4 g acetic acid/100 g diet for 2 h. The 0.2 g acetic acid group had significantly greater liver and gastrocnemius muscle glycogen concentration than the control group (P < 0.05). The concentrations of citrate in this group in both the liver and skeletal muscles were >1.3-fold greater than in the control group (P > 0.1). In liver, the concentration of xylulose-5-phosphate in the control group was significantly higher than in the 0.2 and 0.4 g acetic acid groups (P < 0.01). In gastrocnemius muscle, the concentration of glucose-6-phosphate in the control group was significantly lower and the ratio of fructose-1,6-bisphosphate/fructose-6-phosphate was significantly higher than in the 0.2 g acetic acid group (P < 0.05). This ratio in the soleus muscle of the acetic acid fed groups was <0.8-fold that of the control group (P > 0.1). In liver, acetic acid may activate gluconeogenesis and inactivate glycolysis through inactivation of fructose-2,6-bisphosphate synthesis due to suppression of xylulose-5-phosphate accumulation. In skeletal muscle, acetic acid may inhibit glycolysis by suppression of phosphofructokinase-1 activity. We conclude that a diet containing acetic acid may enhance glycogen repletion in liver and skeletal muscle.

Abstract
The frequency, pathology, animal models, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, diagnostic criteria, therapy and prevention of peritoneal sclerosis are reviewed. Many of these aspects have a bimodal configuration which suggests that peritoneal sclerosis, usually considered a single pathology in peritoneal dialysis, is actually two distinct nosological entities: simple sclerosis and sclerosing peritonitis. The former is very frequent, with minor anatomical alterations and low clinical impact; it is reproducible in animals by means of peritoneal dialysis, and is clearly due to the poor biocompatibility of peritoneal dialysis solutions. The latter is rare, with radical anatomical alterations and high mortality requiring valid methods of diagnosis, therapy and prevention; it can only be reproduced in animal models by means other than peritoneal dialysis and seems to be due to factors both related and unrelated to peritoneal dialysis.

Abstract
In a multicenter study including 5 dialysis units, blood acetate changes during 4 h dialysis sessions in 141 patients treated with a 4 mM acetate-containing bicarbonate dialysate (ABD) were evaluated and compared to the values of 114 patients using an acetate-free bicarbonate dialysate (AFD). Acetate-free bicarbonate dialysate was delivered by a dialysis machine from the mixing with water for dialysis of a 1/26.2 bicarbonate concentrate, and a 1/35 acid-concentrate in which acetic acid was substituted for hydrochloric acid (Soludia, Fourquevaux, France). This new type of dialysate was routinely in use for 3 years on average (range, from 2 to 5 years). All patients fasted before and during dialysis. Blood samples were withdrawn at the start and at the end of dialysis sessions. The acetate plasma concentration was determined using the acetyl-CoA synthetase enzymatic method (Boehringer, Manheim, Germany). In patients treated with ABD whose predialysis blood acetate levels were in the physiologic range of < or = 100 microM (n = 113), the acetate plasma concentration increased from a predialysis mean value of 22+/-3 microM to a postdialysis mean value of 222+/-11 microM in 88 patients (78% of patients) whereas the acetate plasma concentration changes remained in the range of physiologic values from 21+/-6 to 58+/-7 microM in the other 25 patients. In contrast, patients treated with AFD whose predialysis blood acetate levels were in the physiologic range (n = 108), acetate plasma concentration increased from a predialysis mean value of 49+/-6 microM to 160+/-19 microM in only 13 patients (12% of patients) whereas acetate plasma concentration changes remained in the range of physiologic values of 23+/-2 to 41+/-3 microM in most of the patients of this group. In this study, a significant number of patients, whether receiving standard or acetate-free bicarbonate dialysates, exhibited an extremely high acetate plasma concentration at the start of the dialysis session. Hyperacetatemia was controlled with AFD in patients whose predialysis acetate plasma concentration of 316+/-82 decreased to 55 +/-23 microM (n = 6) at the end of the dialysis session whereas the acetate plasma concentration remained high when the predialysis concentration was 580+/-76 microM, with a postdialysis concentration of 233+/-39 microM (n = 28). It is concluded that in patients whose predialysis blood acetate levels were in the physiologic range, acetate-containing bicarbonate dialysate induces hyperacetatemia whereas postdialysis blood acetate remains in the normal range in such dialysis patients treated with acetate-free dialysate. Chronic hyperacetatemia, which could be found in dialysis patients, is well controlled by dialysis using an acetate-free dialysate.

Abstract
Impairment of cardiac contractile function is an important component of acetate associated hypotension during hemodialysis treatments. We examined the effect of acetate on cardiac energy metabolism using the isovolumic isolated perfused heart model. In this preparation, acetate (10 M) caused decreases in tissue ATP concentrations (12.3 +/- 0.8 vs. 15.6 +/- 1.0 micromol/g dry at 30 min, P < 0.05) as well as marked impairment of systolic function (dpdt = 863 +/- 135 vs. 1288 +/- 166 mm Hg/second at 30 min, P < 0.05). Although altering perfusate calcium concentrations (0.6, 1.2 and 2.4 mM) affected physiological responses to acetate (5 and 10 mM), the reductions in tissue ATP concentrations were similar. In isolated heart mitochondria, acetate (100 microM -10 mM) selectively impaired octanoate and palmityl carnitine supported State 3 respiration in a dose dependent fashion (P < 0.01), but did not affect respiration when succinate, pyruvate/malate or malate/glutamate was used as substrate. We suggest that high concentrations of acetate selectively impair fatty acid metabolism in heart issue. This in turn leads to decreases in ATP production and tissue ATP concentrations that ultimately result in impaired contractile function. As this occurs at relatively low concentrations of acetate, this finding may be relevant to other parenterally-administered acetate containing fluids.

Abstract
Intact rat liver mitochondria have very low hydrolytic activity, if any, toward exogenous pyrophosphate. The activity can be unmasked by making mitochondria permeable to PPi by toluene treatment or disrupting them with detergents or ultrasound, indicating that the active site of pyrophosphatase is located in the matrix. Initial rates of PPi hydrolysis by toluene-permeabilized mitochondria and purified pyrophosphatase were found to depend in a similar manner on PPi and Mg2+ concentrations. The simplest model consistent with the data in both cases implies that the reaction proceeds through two pathways and requires MgPPi as the substrate and, at least, one Mg2+ ion as the activator. In the presence of 0.4 mM Mg2+ (physiological concentration), the inhibition constant for Ca2+ is 12 microM and the enzyme activity is, at least, 50% maximal. The results suggest that the activity of pyrophosphatase in mitochondria is high enough to keep free PPi concentration at a level close to that at equilibrium.

Abstract
To evaluate potential adverse effects of acetate use in hemodialysis (HD), we measured plasma interleukin (IL-1 alpha, IL-1 beta, IL-6), TNF alpha, TGF beta 1, and beta 2-microglobulin levels with ELISA assays in normal (N = 9), CRF (N = 6), CAPD (N = 7) and HD (N = 8) subjects and compared the effects of acetate (Ac) and acetate-free (Ac-free) dialysate. TGF beta 1 was the only cytokine consistently detected. Compared to normals (median 57, range 53 to 68 pg/ml, one undetected; N = 8), TGF beta 1 was higher in the CRF (75, 70 to 97 pg/ml, one undetected) and CAPD (75.5, 66 to 116 pg/ml, N = 6) groups (P less than 0.05), and was somewhat higher in the HD (68, 52 to 88 pg/ml) group (P less than 0.10). Acutely, TGF beta 1 pre-HD (70, 63 to 88 pg/ml) increased above normals post AcHD [79.5, 65 to 140 pg/ml uncorrected for ultrafiltration (UF)] and was higher after AcHD versus Ac-free HD both uncorrected (79.5, 65 to 140 pg/ml vs. 70, 52 to 86 pg/ml) and corrected for UF (68, 51 to 115 pg/ml vs. 57, 43 to 69 pg/ml; P less than 0.05). beta 2-microglobulin was not different after AcHD (81.2 +/- 8.0 mg/ml) versus Ac-free HD (72.5 +/- 6.9 mg/ml). Significantly lower serum inorganic phosphorus was also found four hours post-AcHD compared to four hours post-Ac-free HD (0.87 mmol +/- 0.10 SEM vs. 1.05 mmol +/- 0.07 SEM; P less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The possible influences of ethanol and its metabolic product acetate on the surface expression of HLA class I and class II antigens and CD16 Fc receptors were examined. Fluorescent-labeled monoclonal antibodies and flow cytometry were used to measure these antigens on leukocytes from reference controls, subjects admitted for alcohol detoxification, uremic patients undergoing hemodialysis using Cu-prophan dialyzers and fluids containing 4 to 37 mM acetate, and uremic patients that were not hemodialyzed. In comparison to the controls, the mean intensity of staining for class I antigens was not changed significantly on lymphocytes or monocytes from alcoholics but was depressed on cells from eight of 12 uremic patients. Interferon-gamma above 5 units/ml was detected in less than 15% of plasma samples from controls, uremic patients or alcoholics on admission but was detected in four of eight samples from alcoholics at discharge (2-4 days after admission). The intensity of staining for class II antigens was depressed by more than 50% on lymphocytes from alcoholics and uremic patients. The expression of HLA class I and class II antigens was depressed whether uremic patients were hemodialyzed or not. The percentage of lymphocytes expressing CD16 was depressed in three of seven alcoholics and five of seven hemodialyzed patients. In contrast, the percentage of monocytes expressing CD16 was increased in six of seven hemodialyzed patients and three of five uremic patients not undergoing hemodialysis suggesting activation of monocytes in these patients. Plasma levels of beta 2-microglobulin were elevated by 61% in alcoholics, 50-fold in hemodialyzed patients, and 26-fold in nonhemodialyzed uremic patients.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The mechanism of pyrophosphate (PPi) accumulation in rat liver during acetate metabolism was investigated. Perfusion of the liver with acetate in the presence of noradrenaline and glucagon induced marked accumulation of PPi (2 mumol/g of liver, 200 times that of control). In contrast, perfusion with glutamine, which generates PPi only in the cytosol, caused little accumulation of PPi, even in the presence of the two hormones. The site of PPi accumulation was shown to be the mitochondria by the finding that isolated mitochondria from the liver perfused with acetate and the hormones contained 50 nmol of PPi/mg of protein. The addition of an uncoupler to mitochondria with accumulated PPi caused gradual decrease in their PPi content, with concomitant release of a stoichiometric amount of Ca2+. Similar accumulation of PPi was observed when isolated mitochondria were incubated with acetate and Ca2+. These results show that an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ caused by the co-administration of the two hormones induced uptake of the ion into mitochondria, and that PPi accumulated in mitochondria only when it was generated in the organelles with an elevated concentration of Ca2+. High mitochondrial concentrations of Ca2+ are considered to inhibit inorganic pyrophosphatase through the formation of a stable complex, CaPPi-. Mitochondria with accumulated PPi had normal respiratory activities, and their adenine nucleotide concentrations were increased 2-fold rather than being decreased, the increases also being considered to be caused by their high concentration of Ca2+.
