Abstract
Preserving vascular function is crucial for preventing multiorgan failure and death in ischemic and low-pressure states such as trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS). It has recently been reported that inhibiting circulating proteases released from the bowel to the circulation during T/HS may preserve vascular function and improve outcomes following T/HS. This study aimed to evaluate the role of the serine protease inhibitor gabexate mesilate (GM) in preserving vascular function during T/HS when given enterally. We studied the vascular reactivity of mesenteric arteries from male Wistar rats treated with enteral GM (10 mg/kg) (GM-treated, n = 6) or control (Shock-control, n = 6) following (T/HS) using pressure myography. Concentration-response curves of endothelial-dependent and endothelial-independent agonists (e.g., acetylcholine, sodium nitroprusside) ranging from 10-10 to 10-5 M were performed. In a second set of experiments, ex-vivo arteries from healthy rats were perfused with plasma from shocked animals from both groups and vascular performance was similarly measured. Arteries from the GM-treated group demonstrated a preserved concentration-response curve to the α1 adrenergic agonist phenylephrine compared to arteries from Shock-control animals (- logEC50: - 5.73 ± 0.25 vs. - 6.48 ± 0.2, Shock-control vs. GM-treated, p = 0.04). When perfused with plasma from GM-treated rats, healthy arteries exhibited an even greater constriction and sensitivity to phenylephrine (- logEC50: - 6.62 ± 0.21 vs. - 7.13 ± 0.21, Shock-control vs. GM-treated, p = 0.02). Enteral GM also preserved the endothelium-dependent vascular response to agonists following T/HS and limited syndecan-1 shedding as a marker of glycocalyx compromise (41.84 ± 9 vs. 17.63 ± 3.97 ng/mL, Shock-control vs. GM-treated, p = 0.02). Syndecan-1 cleavage was correlated with plasma trypsin-like activity (r2 = 0.9611). Enteral gabexate mesilate was able to maintain vascular function in experimental T/HS, which was reflected by improved hemodynamics (mean arterial pressure 50.39 ± 7.91 vs. 64.95 ± 3.43 mmHg, Shock-control vs. GM treated, p = 0.0001). Enteral serine protease inhibition may be a potential therapeutic intervention in the treatment of T/HS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine common fluid therapy practices of small animal practitioners and identify fluid therapy-related knowledge gaps that may benefit from improved educational efforts, targeted research, or both. DESIGN Online survey. SAMPLE 1,496 small animal veterinarians PROCEDURES An online survey was provided to members of the Veterinary Information Network between December 23, 2013, and January 30, 2014. The survey consisted of 24 questions investigating the administration of crystalloid and synthetic colloid solutions, but not blood products, and focused primarily on the choice of fluid type, frequency of administration, type of patient treated with fluids, treatment with fluids subcutaneously versus IV, and potassium supplementation of fluids. Only responses from practicing small animal veterinarians were included. Not all respondents answered every question, and some questions allowed > 1 answer. RESULTS Balanced crystalloid solutions were the most common fluid type in all clinical scenarios described. The most common maintenance IV fluid rate reported by respondents (762/1,333 [57%]) was 60 mL/kg/d (27 mL/lb/d); calculation of fluid administration rate by means of body surface area was infrequent. Challenges of fluid therapy included determining the appropriate rate (572/1,496 [38%]) and fluid type (497/1,496 [33%]) and determining the need for potassium supplementation (229/1,496 [15%]). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Small animal veterinarians tended to favor isotonic balanced crystalloid solutions for IV fluid therapy, compared with other common choices such as isotonic saline (0.9% NaCl) solution. Despite its ubiquity, respondents found many aspects of fluid therapy to be challenging, suggesting the need for easy to use, evidence-based guidelines.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Intestinal obstruction has a high mortality rate when therapeutic treatment is delayed. Resuscitation in intestinal obstruction requires a large volume of fluid, and fluid combinations have been studied. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of hypertonic saline solution (HS) with pentoxifylline (PTX) on apoptosis, oxidative stress and survival rate. METHODS Wistar rats were subjected to intestinal obstruction and ischemia through a closed loop ligation of the terminal ileum and its vessels. After 24 hours, the necrotic bowel segment was resected, and the animals were randomized into four groups according to the following resuscitation strategies: Ringer's lactate solution (RL) (RL-32 ml/kg); RL+PTX (25 mg/kg); HS+PTX (HS, 7.5%, 4 ml/kg), and no resuscitation (IO-intestinal obstruction and ischemia). Euthanasia was performed 3 hours after resuscitation to obtain kidney and intestine samples. A malondialdehyde (MDA) assay was performed to evaluate oxidative stress, and histochemical analyses (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling [TUNEL], Bcl-2 and Bax) were conducted to evaluate kidney apoptosis. Survival was analyzed with another series of animals that were observed for 15 days. RESULTS PTX in combination with RL or HS reduced the MDA levels (nmol/mg of protein), as follows: kidney IO=0.42; RL=0.49; RL+PTX=0.31; HS+PTX=0.34 (p<0.05); intestine: IO=0.42; RL=0.48; RL+PTX=0.29; HS+PTX=0.26 (p<0.05). The number of labeled cells for TUNEL and Bax was lower in the HS+PTX group than in the other groups (p<0.05). The Bax/Bcl-2 ratio was lower in the HS+PTX group than in the other groups (p<0.05). The survival rate on the 15th day was higher in the HS+PTX group (77%) than in the RL+PTX group (11%). CONCLUSION PTX in combination with HS enhanced survival and attenuated oxidative stress and apoptosis. However, when combined with RL, PTX did not reduce apoptosis or mortality.

Abstract
Shock is associated with inflammation-induced endothelial dysfunction. The aim of this study was to determine time-dependent alteration of blood biomarkers related to endothelial function in hemorrhagic and septic shocks. Hemorrhagic shock was induced by bleeding the animals. A cecal ligation and incision model was used to induce septicemia. Resuscitation was carried out by infusion of lactated Ringer's solution. Resuscitation extended survival time in both shock groups. Blood pressure increased by resuscitation in the hemorrhagic shock but not in the septic shock. While hemorrhage caused a decrease in plasma levels of nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S), asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) levels were increased. Only NO and TAC levels at the late phase were reversed by resuscitation. On the other hand, plasma levels of NO, ADMA, and TAC were increased by septicemia and resuscitation did not alter the septicemia-induced increase. These results indicate that blood biomarkers related to endothelial function were differentially affected by hemorrhage and septicemia. The time scale of biomarker production should be taken into consideration for the diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to these life-threatening diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An animal polytrauma model was developed, including trunk and extremity injuries combined with hemorrhagic shock and a prolonged post-traumatic phase. This could be useful for the assessment of different therapeutic approaches during intensive care therapy. METHODS A standardized polytrauma including lung contusion, liver laceration and lower leg fracture was applied in 25 pigs. They underwent controlled haemorrhage either with a blood volume loss of 45 % and a median arterial pressure (MAP) <30 mmHg/90 min (group L, n = 15) or a 50 % blood loss of and an MAP <25 mmHg/120 min (group H, n = 10). Five non-traumatized pigs served as a control (group C). Subsequently, intensive care treatment was given for an observational period of 48 h. RESULTS Both trauma groups showed signs of shock and organ injury (heart rate, MAP and lactate). The frequency of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and lung injury was directly related to the severity of the haemorrhagic shock (CPR-group L: 4 of 15 pigs, group H: 4 of 10 pigs; Respiratory failure-group L: 3 of 13, group H: 3 of 9. There was no difference in mortality between trauma groups. CONCLUSION The present data suggest that our model reflects the mortality and organ failure of polytrauma in humans during shock and the intensive care period. This suggests that the experimental protocol could be useful for the assessment of therapeutic approaches during the post-traumatic period.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study investigated the effects of pentoxifylline (PTX) combined with resuscitation fluids on microcirculatory dysfunctions in a two-hit model of shock and sepsis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Male Wistar rats (250 g) were submitted to hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion followed by sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture. For the initial treatment of shock, rats were randomly divided into: sham, no injury, no treatment; hypertonic saline solution (HS) (7.5%, 4 mL/kg); lactated Ringer's solution (LR, 3 × shed blood volume); HS + PTX (4 mL/Kg + 25 mg/kg PTX); and LR + PTX (3 × shed blood volume + 25 mg/kg PTX). After 48 h of being exposed to the double injury, leukocyte-endothelial interactions were assessed by intravital microscopy of the mesentery. Endothelial expression of P-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was evaluated by immunohistochemistry, as well as lung neutrophil infiltration by histology. RESULTS Lactated Ringer's solution induced marked increases (P < 0.001) in the number of rolling leukocytes per 10 min (two-fold), adherent leukocytes per 100 μm venule length (six-fold), migrated leukocytes per 5000 μm(2) (eight-fold), P-selectin and ICAM-1 expression (four-fold), and lung neutrophil infiltration (three-fold) compared with sham. In contrast, PTX attenuated leukocyte-endothelial interactions, P-selectin and ICAM-1 expression at the mesentery when associated with either LR (P < 0.001) or HS (P < 0.05). Neutrophil migration into the lungs was similarly reduced by PTX (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Data presented showed that pentoxifylline attenuates microcirculatory disturbances at the mesenteric bed with significant minimization of lung inflammation after a double-injury model of hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion followed by sepsis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Transfusion of stored RBCs is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in trauma patients. Plasma hemoglobin scavenges nitric oxide, which can cause vasoconstriction, induce inflammation, and activate platelets. We hypothesized that transfusion of RBCs stored for prolonged periods would induce adverse effects (pulmonary vasoconstriction, tissue injury, inflammation, and platelet activation) in lambs subjected to severe hemorrhagic shock and that concurrent inhalation of nitric oxide would prevent these adverse effects. DESIGN Animal study. SETTING Research laboratory at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, MA. SUBJECTS Seventeen awake Polypay-breed lambs. INTERVENTIONS Lambs were subjected to 2 hours of hemorrhagic shock by acutely withdrawing 50% of their blood volume. Lambs were resuscitated with autologous RBCs stored for 2 hours or less (fresh) or 39 ± 2 (mean ± SD) days (stored). Stored RBCs were administered with or without breathing nitric oxide (80 ppm) during resuscitation and for 21 hours thereafter. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We measured hemodynamic and oxygenation variables, markers of tissue injury and inflammation, plasma hemoglobin concentrations, and platelet activation. Peak pulmonary arterial pressure was higher after resuscitation with stored than with fresh RBCs (24 ± 4 vs 14 ± 2 mm Hg, p < 0.001) and correlated with peak plasma hemoglobin concentrations (R = 0.56, p = 0.003). At 21 hours after resuscitation, pulmonary myeloperoxidase activity was higher in lambs resuscitated with stored than with fresh RBCs (11 ± 2 vs 4 ± 1 U/g, p = 0.007). Furthermore, transfusion of stored RBCs increased plasma markers of tissue injury and sensitized platelets to adenosine diphosphate activation. Breathing nitric oxide prevented the pulmonary hypertension and attenuated the pulmonary myeloperoxidase activity, as well as tissue injury and sensitization of platelets to adenosine diphosphate. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that resuscitation of lambs from hemorrhagic shock with autologous stored RBCs induces pulmonary hypertension and inflammation, which can be ameliorated by breathing nitric oxide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemorrhagic shock (HS) followed by an infection ("second hit") can lead to severe systemic inflammatory response and multiple-organ failure. Studies have shown that resuscitation with hypertonic saline (HTS) can blunt the inflammatory response. We demonstrated that large doses of valproic acid (VPA, 300 mg/kg), a histone deacetylase inhibitor, improves survival in a rodent two-hit model (HS followed by cecal ligation and puncture [CLP]). In the present study, we examined whether combination of HTS with VPA would allow us to achieve survival advantage at a lower dose of VPA (200 mg/kg). METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to HS (50% blood loss) and randomized into five groups (n = 7-8 per group) as follows: (1) isotonic sodium chloride solution (ISCS), (2) 7.5% saline, (3) VPA, (4) ISCS + VPA, and (5) HTS + VPA. After 24 hours, they underwent CLP, followed by the same doses of ISCS, HTS, and/or VPA and were monitored for 10 days. In a parallel experiment, blood, peritoneal irrigation fluid and lung homogenate were subjected to enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay 3 hours and 24 hours after CLP to measure myeloperoxidase activity and proinflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin 1β levels. Western blotting was performed to investigate the expression of pentraxin 3 protein in the lung homogenate at 24 hours after CLP. Hematoxylin and eosin staining of lungs at the 24 hours were performed to quantify the degree of acute lung injury. RESULTS HTS + VPA treatment significantly improved survival (87.5%), compared with the other groups (14.3%; p < 0.05), while attenuating peritoneal myeloperoxidase levels and proinflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin 1β levels in the serum, peritoneal cavity, and lung. The degree of acute lung injury and expression of pentraxin 3 in the lung were significantly reduced in the HTS + VPA group. CONCLUSION This is the first study to show that VPA and HTS can work synergistically to attenuate inflammation and improve survival in a lethal two-hit model.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare lung and liver injury and laboratory results in haemorrhagic shock and sepsis models treated with combinations of lactated Ringer's solution (LR), 7.5% hypertonic saline (HTS), hydroxyethyl starch (HES), and pentoxifylline (PTX). METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats (200-290 g) were assigned randomly to one of four treatment groups (n=16 per group): (1) LR; (2) HES; (3) LR-PTX; and (4) HTS-PTX. Each group was subdivided into (1) haemorrhagic shock (n=8) and (2) sepsis (n=8) model groups. A venous catheter was used to inject resuscitation fluids, and an arterial catheter was used to withdraw blood and monitor mean arterial pressure (MAP). Lung and liver histology, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, and cytokine levels were evaluated. RESULTS The mean lung injury score was 1.7. At 24h after treatment, the total leucocyte count in the BAL fluid was significantly (p<0.05) higher with LR treatment (10 × 10(6) ± 0.8) than with other treatments in the sepsis model groups (HES, 6 × 10(6) ± 1.2; LR-PTX, 5 × 10(6) ± 1.5; HTS-PTX, 5 × 10(6) ± 0.6). The higher total leucocyte count after LR treatment was attributable to a greater increase in the number of neutrophils (17 ± 1.5%) compared with increases after the other treatments (HES, 6 ± 0.8%; LR-PTX, 10 ± 1.3%; HTS-PTX, 5 ± 0.4%). In the sepsis model groups, the total hepatic injury score was also significantly (p<0.05) higher with LR treatment (9.9 ± 0.5) than with the other treatments (HES, 6.7 ± 0.8; LR-PTX, 5.6 ± 0.7; HTS-PTX, 3.1 ± 0.9). This also occurred in the shock model (LR, 10.6 ± 2.1; HES, 5.8 ± 0.9; LR-PTX, 7.3 ± 0.9; HTS-PTX, 3.5 ± 0.9). As compared with LR treatment, HTS-PTX resuscitation resulted in a 49% decrease in TNF-α, 29% decrease in IL-1β, and 58% decrease in IL-6 in the shock model at 24h (p<0.05), and the respective decreases were 45, 24, and 35% in the sepsis model (p<0.05). CONCLUSION HTS-PTX was superior to HES, LR-PTX, and LR for treating shock and sepsis, and LR-PTX and HES gave better results than LR therapy alone.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Combining the hemodynamic and immune benefits of hypertonic saline with the anti-inflammatory effects of the phosphodiesterase inhibitor pentoxifylline (HSPTX) as a hemorrhagic shock resuscitation strategy reduces lung injury when compared with the effects of Ringer's lactate (RL). We hypothesized that HSPTX exerts its anti-inflammatory effects by interfering with nuclear factor kappa B/cAMP response element-binding protein (NF-kappaB-CREB) competition for the coactivator CREB-binding protein (CBP) in lung tissue, thus affecting pro-inflammatory mediator production. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats underwent 60 minutes of hemorrhagic shock to reach a mean arterial blood pressure of 35 mmHg followed by resuscitation with either RL or HSPTX (7.5% HS + 25 mg/kg PTX). After four hours, lung samples were collected. NF-kappaB activation was assessed by measuring the levels of phosphorylated cytoplasmic inhibitor of kappa B (I-kappaB) and nuclear NF-kappaB p65 by western blot. NF-kappaB and CREB DNA-binding activity were measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). Competition between NF-kappaB and CREB for the coactivator CBP was determined by immunoprecipitation. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) levels in the lung were measured by ELISA. RESULTS RL resuscitation produced significantly higher levels of lung IL-8 levels, I-kappaB phosphorylation, p65 phosphorylation, and NF-kappaB DNA binding compared with HSPTX. NF-kappaB-CBP-binding activity was similar in both groups, whereas CREB-CBP-binding activity was significantly increased with HSPTX. CREB-DNA binding-activity increased to a greater level with HSPTX compared with RL. DISCUSSION HSPTX decreases lung inflammation following hemorrhagic shock compared with conventional resuscitation using RL through attenuation of NF-kappaB signaling and increased CREB-DNA binding activity. HSPTX may have therapeutic potential in the attenuation of ischemia-reperfusion injury observed after severe hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hemorrhagic shock followed by resuscitation (HS/R) promotes organ injury by priming cells of the innate immune system for inflammatory response. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play an important role in signal transduction in shock/resuscitation conditions. Because proinflammatory mediators are a critical event in mesenteric endothelial injury induced by HS/R, we assessed the role of TLR4 or TLR2 in this setting. DESIGN Laboratory investigation. SETTING Research laboratory at Rouen University Medical School. SUBJECTS Male wild-type, TLR4(-/-) and TLR2(-/-) mice with the same C57BL/6 background. INTERVENTIONS Mice were submitted to 30 minutes hemorrhagic shock followed by 1 hour resuscitation, after which mesenteric endothelial dysfunction, microvascular injury, and TNF[alpha] production were assessed. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS HS/R markedly decreased nitric oxide-mediated mesenteric relaxations induced by acetylcholine, assessed ex vivo on a myograph. By contrast, in TLR4-deficient mice, HS/R did not impair the nitric oxide-mediated responses to acetylcholine. No protection was observed in TLR2-deficient mice. TLR4-deficient mice also displayed a significant reduction in fluid resuscitation and TNF[alpha] systemic production. CONCLUSIONS TLR4 contributes to mesenteric endothelial dysfunction after hemorrhagic shock. This early TLR4-induced vascular injury may be an important trigger of the systemic inflammatory response occurring in this disease.

Abstract
Hemorrhagic shock is a leading cause of death in trauma patients worldwide. Bleeding control, maintenance of tissue oxygenation with fluid resuscitation, coagulation support, and maintenance of normothermia remain mainstays of therapy for patients with hemorrhagic shock. Although now widely practised as standard in the USA and Europe, shock resuscitation strategies involving blood replacement and fluid volume loading to regain tissue perfusion and oxygenation vary between trauma centers; the primary cause of this is the scarcity of published evidence and lack of randomized controlled clinical trials. Despite enormous efforts to improve outcomes after severe hemorrhage, novel strategies based on experimental data have not resulted in profound changes in treatment philosophy. Recent clinical and experimental studies indicated the important influences of sex and genetics on pathophysiological mechanisms after hemorrhage. Those findings might provide one explanation why several promising experimental approaches have failed in the clinical arena. In this respect, more clinically relevant animal models should be used to investigate pathophysiology and novel treatment approaches. This review points out new therapeutic strategies, namely immunomodulation, cardiovascular maintenance, small volume resuscitation, and so on, that have been introduced in clinics or are in the process of being transferred from bench to bedside. Control of hemorrhage in the earliest phases of care, recognition and monitoring of individual risk factors, and therapeutic modulation of the inflammatory immune response will probably constitute the next generation of therapy in hemorrhagic shock. Further randomized controlled multicenter clinical trials are needed that utilize standardized criteria for enrolling patients, but existing ethical requirements must be maintained.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ringer's lactate (RL), the current standard resuscitation fluid, potentiates neutrophil activation and is associated with pulmonary inflammation. Resuscitation with hypertonic saline and pentoxifylline (HSPTX) has been shown to attenuate hemorrhagic shock-induced injury when compared with RL. Because the neutrophil plays a major role in postshock inflammation, we hypothesized that HSPTX reduces pulmonary inflammation after resuscitation in comparison to RL. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats underwent controlled shock and were resuscitated with RL (32 mL/kg) or HSPTX (4 mL/kg 7.5% NaCl + pentoxifylline 25 mg/kg). Animals who did not undergo shock or resuscitation served as controls. After 24 hours, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue were collected. Cytokine induced neutrophil chemoattractant (CINC) was measured in BALF by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)-2 and -9 were measured by zymography. Hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) was assessed by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS HSPTX resuscitation led to a 62% decrease in CINC levels compared with RL (p < 0.01). BALF MMP-2 expression was attenuated by 11% with HSPTX (p = 0.09). Lung MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression was reduced by 89% (p < 0.01) and 76%, respectively (p < 0.05). Lung HO-1 expression declined by 34% with HSPTX in comparison to RL (p < 0.01), indicating less oxidative injury. Lung immunohistochemistry localized HO-1 to neutrophils, macrophages, and airway epithelial cells. CONCLUSION Collectively, the attenuation of pulmonary inflammation with HSPTX after shock when compared with RL is associated with downregulation of neutrophil activation, oxidative stress, and proinflammatory mediator production.
