Abstract
After emergency surgery for intestinal obstruction caused by colorectal cancer, postoperative ileus (POI) is more likely to occur in the early-stage oral intake. POI incited the occurrence of postoperative complications and prolongs hospital stay. Reducing the occurrence of POI will Enhance Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). AIM The aim of this study is to observe and evaluate the preventive effect of postoperative oral administration of 76% Meglumine Diatrizoate in reducing the incidence of POI and promoting intestinal absorption during the recovery of intestinal peristalsis in patients after intestinal obstruction surgery. METHODS From October 2018 to December 2021, 94 patients (47 vs 47) with intestinalobstruction were rolled. Patients with an ASA score of 4 or higher and gastrointestinal perforation with peritonitis were excluded. After 24 hours of surgery, the patients were divided into experimental group and control group disposed of with an opaque airtight envelope method, patient-side single blind. After intestinal peristalsis recovery (2.45 ± 0.62 d vs 2.60 ± 0.68 d, P > 0.05), the experimental group was given 76% Meglumine Diatrizoate 20 ml orally 9am and the control group was given 10% glucose 20 ml for three consecutive days. POI cases, the time taken to achieve full daily oral calorie and discharge days were counted. RESULTS The time required to achieve full daily oral calorie (11.04 ± 2.70 d vs 14.09 ± 3.74 d, p < 0.05), POI cases (10/47 vs 20/47, p < 0.05) and discharge days (14.00 ± 4.89 d vs 16.77 ± 5.94 d, p < 0.05) are significantly different between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Oral 76% Meglumine Diatrizoate is safe and effective, which can reduce the occurrence of POI, promote the recovery of intestinal absorption and shorten the length of hospital stay effectively.

Potential molecular mechanism of Guiqi Baizhu Decoction in radiation-induced intestinal edema by regulating HIF-1a, AQP4 and Na +/K +-ATPase. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 107:154445. [PMID: 36130463 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2022.154445] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2022] [Revised: 07/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Guiqi Baizhu Decoction (GQBZD) has a good protective effect on radiation-induced intestinal edema (RIIE). However, the underlying molecular mechanisms need further elucidation. PURPOSE To reveal the potential mechanism of RIIE and GQBZD treatment. METHODS SD rats were irradiated with 6Gy X-ray to establish RIIE model. The general condition of the rats was observed; the dry/wet weight ratio of colon tissue was detected; the morphological changes of colon tissue were observed by HE staining; the expressions of ROS, HIF-1α and AQP4 in colon tissue were detected by confocal laser scanning; the expression of edema-related proteins was detected by Western blot. In addition, human colon epithelial cells (NCM460) was irradiated with 2Gy X-ray, and HIF-1α expression in NCM460 was knocked down by small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection, and the activity of Na+/K+-ATPase was detected by enzyme activity kit; the ROS expression was detected by flow cytometer; the AQP4 expression was detected by laser confocal microscopy; and the expression of edema-related proteins were detected by Western blot. RESULTS We found that after irradiation, the colon tissue of rats was significantly edema, mainly manifested as mucosal and submucosal edema, and the ultrastructure was reflected in the structural damage of nucleus and mitochondria. ROS, HIF-1α and AQP4 were significantly expressed, and Na+/K+-ATPase expression/activity was decreased. After the intervention of GQBZD, the edema of the colon tissue of the rats was improved, the expressions of ROS, HIF-1α and AQP4 were decreased, and the expression/activity of Na+/K+-ATPase was increased. CONCLUSION Ionizing radiation (IR) can cause significant intestinal edema. AQP4 and Na+/K+-ATPase are the key factors of RIIE, which are regulated by ROS and HIF-1α. GQBZD can improve hypoxia and oxidative stress, regulate the expression of AQP4 and Na+/K+-ATPase, and achieve a protective effect on RIIE. This study is the first to reveal the mechanism of RIIE.

Abstract
Increases in the volume of the interstitial space are readily recognized clinically as interstitial edema formation in the loose connective tissue of skin, mucosa, and lung. However, the contents and the hydrostatic pressure of this interstitial fluid can be very difficult to determine even in experimental settings. These difficulties have long obscured what we are beginning to appreciate is a dynamic milieu that is subject to both intrinsic and extrinsic regulation. This review examines current concepts regarding regulation of interstitial volume, pressure, and flow and utilizes that background to address three major topics of interest that impact IV fluid administration. The first of these started with the discovery that excess dietary salt can be stored non-osmotically in the interstitial space with minimal impact on vascular volume and pressures. This led to the hypothesis that, along with the kidney, the interstitial space plays an active role in the long-term regulation of blood pressure. Second, it now appears that hypovolemic shock leads to systemic inflammatory response syndrome principally through the entry of digestive enzymes into the intestinal interstitial space and the subsequent progression of enzymes and inflammatory agents through the mesenteric lymphatic system to the general circulation. Lastly, current evidence strongly supports the non-intuitive view that the primary factor leading to inflammatory edema formation is a decrease in interstitial hydrostatic pressure that dramatically increases microvascular filtration.

Attenuation of endothelial phosphatidylserine exposure decreases ischemia-reperfusion induced changes in microvascular permeability. J Trauma Acute Care Surg 2019.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Translocation of phosphatidylserine from the inner leaflet to the outer leaflet of the endothelial membrane via phospholipid scramblase-1 (PLSCR1) is an apoptotic signal responsible for the loss of endothelial barrier integrity after ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). We hypothesized that inhibiting phosphatidylserine expression on endothelial cells would attenuate IRI induced increases in hydraulic permeability (Lp). METHODS Mesenteric Lp was measured in rat post-capillary mesenteric venules subjected to IRI via superior mesenteric artery (SMA) occlusion (45 minutes) and release (300 minutes) in conjunction with several inhibitors of phosphatidylserine exposure as follows: (1) inhibition of PLSCR1 translocation (dithioerythritol, n = 3), (2) inhibition of PLSCR1 membrane trafficking (2-bromopalmitate [2-BP], n = 3), and (3) inhibition of ion exchange necessary for PLSCR1 function (4,4'-Diisothiocyano-2,2'-stilbenedisulfonic acid [DIDS], n = 3). Under the same IRI conditions, rats were also administered targeted inhibitors of phosphatidylserine exposure including knockdown of PLSCR1 (n = 3) using RNA interference (RNAi), and as a potential therapeutic tool Diannexin, a selective phosphatidylserine blocker (n = 3). RESULTS During IRI net Lp increased by 80% (p < 0.01). Net reductions of Lp were accomplished by 2-BP (46% reduction, p = 0.005), combined DET + 2-BP + DIDS (32% reduction, p = 0.04), RNAi (55% reduction, p = 0.002), Diannexin administered pre-SMA artery occlusion (73% reduction, p = 0.001), and post-SMA occlusion (70% reduction, p = 0.002). CONCLUSION Phosphatidylserine exposure is a key event in the pathogenesis of microvascular dysfunction during IRI. Clinically, inhibition of phosphatidylserine exposure is a promising strategy that may 1 day be used to mitigate the effects of IRI.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the impact of 3% hypertonic saline (HS) intragastric administration for patients who underwent upper gastrointestinal surgery.During the postoperative period, 3% HS has been suggested as a means to improve the intestinal edema and reduce gastrointestinal complications.The medical records of 111 patients with HS intragastric administration following upper gastrointestinal surgery and 268 patients, served as control, were reviewed retrospectively. Propensity score matching was performed to adjust for selected baseline variables. Clinical outcomes, including early gastrointestinal function recovery, postoperative complications, and length of hospital stay, were compared according to the HS intragastric administration or not.HS intragastric administration was associated with prompt postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery, including first flatus (risk ratio [RR], 1.32; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.89-1.65; P = 0.048) and feeding within 3 postoperative days (RR (95% CI), 0.57 (0.49-0.77); P = 0.036). Early ileus occurred in 25 of 108 patients with HS treatment versus 36 of 108 patients without HS treatment (RR (95% CI), 1.43 (0.63-2.15); P = 0.065). The patients with HS experienced a lower overall postoperative complication (odds ratio [OD] 0.57; 95% CI, 0.33-1.09; P = 0.063), including trend toward a decrease for infectious complications (15[13.9] vs 23[21.3]; P = 0.11; OD, 0.59; 95% CI, 0.29-1.22). There was a decreased incidence of anastomotic leakage (1[0.9] vs 7[6.5]; P = 0.033) and postoperative ileuas (5[4.6%] vs 11[10.2%]; P = 0.096) in the HS administration patients.Our study demonstrated beneficial postoperative clinical effects of HS intragastric administration in patients who had undergone upper gastrointestinal surgery, such as prompt postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery and reduced overall postoperative complications, which may be attributed to a reduced intestinal edema.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the human and veterinary literature regarding gastrointestinal (GI) dysmotility disorders in respect to pathogenesis, patient risk factors, and treatment options in critically ill dogs and cats. ETIOLOGY GI dysmotility is a common sequela of critical illness in people and small animals. The most common GI motility disorders in critically ill people and small animals include esophageal dysmotility, delayed gastric emptying, functional intestinal obstruction (ie, ileus), and colonic motility abnormalities. Medical conditions associated with the highest risk of GI dysmotility include mechanical ventilation, sepsis, shock, trauma, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, and multiple organ failure. The incidence and pathophysiology of GI dysmotility in critically ill small animals is incompletely understood. DIAGNOSIS A presumptive diagnosis of GI dysmotility is often made in high-risk patient populations following detection of persistent regurgitation, vomiting, lack of tolerance of enteral nutrition, abdominal pain, and constipation. Definitive diagnosis is established via radioscintigraphy; however, this diagnostic tool is not readily available and is difficult to perform on small animals. Other diagnostic modalities that have been evaluated include abdominal ultrasonography, radiographic contrast, and tracer studies. THERAPY Therapy is centered at optimizing GI perfusion, enhancement of GI motility, and early enteral nutrition. Pharmacological interventions are instituted to promote gastric emptying and effective intestinal motility and prevention of complications. Promotility agents, including ranitidine/nizatidine, metoclopramide, erythromycin, and cisapride are the mainstays of therapy in small animals. PROGNOSIS The development of complications related to GI dysmotility (eg, gastroesophageal reflux and aspiration) have been associated with increased mortality risk. Institution of prophylaxic therapy is recommended in high-risk patients, however, no consensus exists regarding optimal timing of initiating prophylaxic measures, preference of treatment, or duration of therapy. The prognosis for affected small animal patients remains unknown.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the effect of local intestinal perfusion with hypertonic saline (HTS) on intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) in both ex vivo and in vivo rat models.
METHODS: All experiments were performed on male Wistar rats anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium given intraperitoneally at a dose of 60 mg/kg. Ex vivo vascularly perfused rat intestine was subjected to 60-min ischemia and either 30-min reperfusion with isotonic buffer (controls), or 5 min with HTS of 365 or 415 mOsm/L osmolarity (HTS365mOsm or HTS415mOsm, respectively) followed by 25-min reperfusion with isotonic buffer. The vascular intestinal perfusate flow (IPF) rate was determined by collection of the effluent from the portal vein in a calibrated tube. Spontaneous intestinal contraction rate was monitored throughout. Irreversible intestinal injury or area of necrosis (AN) was evaluated histochemically using 2.3.5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. In vivo, 30-min ischemia was followed by either 30-min blood perfusion or 5-min reperfusion with HTS365mOsm through the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) followed by 25-min blood perfusion. Arterial blood pressure (BP) was measured in the common carotid artery using a miniature pressure transducer. Histological injury was evaluated in both preparations using the Chui score.
RESULTS: Ex vivo, intestinal IRI resulted in a reduction in the IPF rate during reperfusion (P < 0.05 vs sham). The postischemic recovery of the IPF rate did not differ between the controls and the HTS365mOsm group. In the HTS415mOsm group, postischemic IPF rates were lower than in the controls and the HTS365mOsm group (P < 0.05). The intestinal contraction rate was similar at baseline in all groups. An increase in this parameter was observed during the first 10 min of reperfusion in the control group as compared to the sham-treated group, but no such increase was seen in the HTS365mOsm group. In controls, AN averaged 14.8% ± 5.07% of the total tissue volume. Administration of HTS365mOsm for 5 min after 60-min ischemia resulted in decrease in AN (5.1% ± 1.20% vs controls, P < 0.01). However, perfusion of the intestine with the HTS of greater osmolarity (HTS415mOsm) failed to protect the intestine from irreversible injury. The Chiu score was lower in the HTS365mOsm group in comparison with controls (2.4 ± 0.54 vs 3.2 ± 0.44, P = 0.042), while intestinal perfusion with HTS415mOsm failed to improve the Chiu score. Intestinal reperfusion with HTS365mOsm in the in vivo series secured rapid recovery of BP after its transient fall, whereas in the controls no recovery was seen. The Chiu score was lower in the HTS365mOsm group vs controls (3.1 ± 0.26 and 3.8 ± 0.22, P = 0.0079 respectively,), although the magnitude of the effect was lower than in the ex vivo series.
CONCLUSION: Brief intestinal postischemic perfusion with HTS365mOsm through the SMA followed by blood flow restoration is a protective procedure that could be used for the prevention of intestinal IRI.

Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the effect of small-volume hypertonic sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch injection on histopathological changes in the intestinal mucosa and plasma levels of NO in rats with hemorrhagic shock.
METHODS: Male SD rats were hemorrhaged to the mean arterial pressure of 40 mmHg ± 5 mmHg for 30 min to induce hemorrhagic shock. Animals were randomly divided into three groups: rats resuscitated with 4 mL/kg of 5.0% hypertonic sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch injection and retransfused shed blood, those resuscitated with lactated Ringer's solution (two times the volume of shed blood) and retransfused shed blood, and those undergoing sham hemorrhage. The dynamic changes in plasma NO concentrations were monitored, and pathological changes in the small intestine were observed.
RESULTS: After resuscitation with hypertonic sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch injection, NO showed no significant changes (P > 0.05), and pathological changes in the small intestine were significantly reduced. In contrast, plasma NO concentration significantly decreased (P < 0.05) and pathological damage to the small intestine showed no significant improvement in rats resuscitated with lactated Ringer's solution.
CONCLUSION: Resuscitation with hypertonic sodium chloride hydroxyethyl starch injection reduces intestinal damage in rats hemorrhagic shock possibly via a mechanism associated with protection of endothelial cell function.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertonic saline solution (7.2%) (HSS) can quickly replace intravascular volume deficits. HSS more recently has been advocated in the treatment of traumatic brain injury, but its use in dehydrated patients remains controversial. HYPOTHESIS Hypertonic saline solution will show a significant improvement in both clinical and laboratory hydration parameters as compared to isotonic (0.9%) saline solution (ISS). ANIMALS Endurance horses eliminated from the 2009 Western States 100-mile (220-km) endurance ride and requiring IV fluid therapy were eligible for enrollment in the study. METHODS Twenty-two horses were randomly assigned to receive 4 mL/kg of either HSS or ISS along with 5 L lactated Ringer's solution (LRS). After this bolus, horses were treated with additional LRS in varying amounts. Blood and urine samples were collected before, during, and after treatment. Data were compared using 2-way ANOVA with repeated measures. RESULTS As compared to ISS, HSS horses showed greater decreases in PCV (P = .04), total protein (P = .01), albumin (P = .01), and globulin (P = .02) concentrations. HSS horses showed greater increases in sodium and chloride (P < .001) as compared to ISS horses. Horses receiving HSS had a shorter time to urination (P = .03) and lower specific gravity (P < .001) than those receiving ISS. CONCLUSIONS Results of this study indicate that HSS may provide faster restoration of intravascular volume deficits than ISS in endurance horses receiving emergency medical treatment. More marked electrolyte changes should be expected with HSS, however, and additional fluids after HSS administration likely are needed.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this large-animal study was to assess the safety and effects of negative pressure therapy (NPT) when used as temporary abdominal closure in the immediate post-decompression period after abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS). METHODS Using a hemorrhagic shock/resuscitation and mesenteric venous pressure elevation model, ACS was physiologically induced in 12 female Yorkshire swine. At decompression, animals were allocated to either NPT (n = 6) or Bogota bag (n = 6) as temporary abdominal closure and studied for a period of 48 h or until death. Outcomes measured included morbidity and mortality, as well as hemodynamic parameters, ventilator-related measurements, blood gases, coagulation factors, and organ (liver, kidney, lung, and intestinal) edema and histology at the time of death/sacrifice. RESULTS All animals developed ACS. Early application of NPT was associated with decreases in mesenteric venous and central venous pressure, and significantly increased drainage of peritoneal fluid. In addition, there was no increase in the incidence of mortality, recurrent intra-abdominal hypertension/ACS, or any deleterious effects on markers of organ injury. CONCLUSIONS Early application of NPT in this porcine ACS model is safe and does not appear to be associated with an increased risk of recurrent intra-abdominal hypertension. The results of this animal study suggest that the application of NPT following decompression from ACS results in greater peritoneal fluid removal and may translate into augmented intestinal edema resolution secondary to more favorable fluid flux profiles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We have published extensively regarding the effects of edema on intestinal contractile function. However, we have found the need to expand our model to mice to take advantage of the much larger arsenal of research support, especially in terms of transgenic mouse availability and development. To that end, we have developed and validated a hydrostatic intestinal edema model in mice. METHODS Male C57 Black 6 mice were subjected to a combination of high volume crystalloid resuscitation and mesenteric venous hypertension in an effort to induce hydrostatic intestinal edema. Wet to dry ratios, myeloperoxidase activity, mucosal injury scoring, STAT-3 nuclear activation, phosphorylated STAT-3 levels, NF-κB nuclear activation, myosin light chain phosphorylation, intestinal contractile activity, and intestinal transit were measured to evaluate the effects of the model. KEY RESULTS High volume crystalloid resuscitation and mesenteric venous hypertension resulted in the development of significant intestinal edema without an increase in myeloperoxidase activity or mucosal injury. Edema development was associated with increases in STAT-3 and NF-κB nuclear activation as well as phosphorylated STAT-3. There was a decrease in myosin light chain phosphorylation, basal and maximally stimulated intestinal contractile activity, and intestinal transit. CONCLUSION & INFERENCES Hydrostatic edema in mice results in activation of a signal transduction profile that culminates in intestinal contractile dysfunction. This novel model allows for advanced studies into the pathogenesis of hydrostatic edema induced intestinal contractile dysfunction.

Abstract
High volume resuscitation and damage control surgical methods, while responsible for significantly decreasing morbidity and mortality from traumatic injuries, are associated with pathophysiologic derangements that lead to subsequent end organ edema and dysfunction. Alterations in hydrostatic and oncotic pressures frequently result in intestinal edema and subsequent dysfunction. The purpose of this review is to examine the principles involved in the development of intestinal edema, current and historical models for the study of edema, effects of edema on intestinal function (particularly ileus), molecular mediators governing edema-induced dysfunction, potential role of mechanotransduction , and therapeutic effects of hypertonic saline. We review the current state of the science as it relates to resuscitation induced intestinal edema and resultant dysfunction.
