Abstract
Introduction Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) after a perinatal insult is a dynamic process that evolves over time. Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) is standard treatment for severe to moderate HIE. There is a lack of evidence on the temporal change and interrelation of the underlying mechanisms that constitute HIE under normal and hypothermic conditions. We aimed to describe early changes in intracerebral metabolism after a hypoxic-ischemic insult in piglets treated with and without TH and in controls. Methods Three devices were installed into the left hemisphere of 24 piglets: a probe measuring intracranial pressure, a probe measuring blood flow and oxygen tension, and a microdialysis catheter measuring lactate, glucose, glycerol, and pyruvate. After a standardized hypoxic ischemic insult, the piglets were randomized to either TH or normothermia. Results Glycerol, a marker of cell lysis, increased immediately after the insult in both groups. There was a secondary increase in glycerol in normothermic piglets but not in piglets treated with TH. Intracerebral pressure, blood flow, oxygen tension, and extracellular lactate remained stable during the secondary increase in glycerol. Conclusion This exploratory study depicted the development of the pathophysiological mechanisms in the hours following a perinatal hypoxic-ischemic insult with and without TH and controls.

Hypothermia impairs glymphatic drainage in traumatic brain injury as assessed by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI with intrathecal contrast. Front Neurosci 2023; 17:1061039.

Abstract
Introduction The impact of hypothermia on the impaired drainage function of the glymphatic system in traumatic brain injury (TBI) is not understood. Methods Male Sprague-Dawley rats undergoing controlled cortical impact injury (CCI) were subjected to hypothermia or normothermia treatment. The rats undergoing sham surgery without CCI were used as the control. Dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) with intrathecal administration of low- and high-molecular-weight contrast agents (Gd-DTPA and hyaluronic acid conjugated Gd-DTPA) was performed after TBI and head temperature management. The semiquantitative kinetic parameters characterizing the contrast infusion and cleanout in the brain, including influx rate, efflux rate, and clearance duration, were calculated from the average time-intensity curves. Results and discussion The qualitative and semiquantitative results of DCE-MRI obtained from all examined perivascular spaces and most brain tissue regions showed a significantly increased influx rate and efflux rate and decreased clearance duration among all TBI animals, demonstrating a significant impairment of glymphatic drainage function. This glymphatic drainage dysfunction was exacerbated when additional hypothermia was applied. The early glymphatic drainage reduction induced by TBI and aggravated by hypothermia was linearly related to the late increased deposition of p-tau and beta-amyloid revealed by histopathologic and biochemical analysis and cognitive impairment assessed by the Barnes maze and novel object recognition test. The glymphatic system dysfunction induced by hypothermia may be an indirect alternative pathophysiological factor indicating injury to the brain after TBI. Longitudinal studies and targeted glymphatic dysfunction management are recommended to explore the potential effect of hypothermia in TBI.

A systematic review. Dev Med Child Neurol 2022; 64:1202-1213. [PMID: 35390176 DOI: 10.1111/dmcn.15236] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2021] [Revised: 03/16/2022] [Accepted: 03/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
AIM To evaluate whether abnormal resistive index or cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) on cranial ultrasound predicts disability (≥1 year) in infants with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE). METHOD This was a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing developmental outcomes of infants with HIE with normal versus abnormal resistive index or CBFV. RESULTS Twenty-six studies were included (pre-therapeutic hypothermia era, 20; therapeutic hypothermia era, six). Data from 15 studies (pre-therapeutic hypothermia, 10; therapeutic hypothermia, five) were available for meta-analysis. Pooled sensitivity and specificity, summary area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, and diagnostic odds ratio of resistive index or CBFV for predicting 'death or severe disability' were as follows. Pre-therapeutic hypothermia era: 0.83 (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.45-0.97) and 0.92 (95% CI 0.74-0.98), 0.94 (95% CI 0.92-0.96), 54 (95% CI 7-391). Therapeutic hypothermia era (measurements before therapeutic hypothermia): 0.62 (95% CI 0.41-0.80) and 0.96 (95% CI 0.88-0.99), 0.93 (95% CI 0.89-0.94), 23 (95% CI 6-91). Therapeutic hypothermia era (measurements during/after therapeutic hypothermia): 0.51 (95% CI 0.24-0.78) and 0.83 (95% CI 0.73-0.90), 0.81 (95% CI 0.78-0.85), 5 (95% CI 2-13). Overall Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) rating of evidence was 'low' or 'very low'. INTERPRETATION Low-level evidence suggests that abnormal resistive index or CBFV can predict death or disability with high sensitivity and specificity in infants with HIE who are not cooled. The specificity of these tests was high when performed before starting cooling in infants who received therapeutic hypothermia. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS Cerebral doppler ultrasound may be useful in predicting death or disability in infants with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy who are not cooled. Cerebral doppler ultrasound may also be useful in infants who are cooled, if done before starting cooling. Cerebral doppler ultrasound may not be useful when performed during or after completing cooling.

Abstract
Background Selective brain cooling (SBC) methods could alleviate the complications associated with systemic hypothermia. The authors (MFB, LK, and T-YL) have developed a simple and an effective nasopharyngeal SBC method using a vortex tube. The primary focus of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach on rabbits and compare it with our previous published finding on piglets, which are mammals without and with a carotid rete, respectively. Methods Experiments were conducted on six rabbits. Body temperature was measured continuously using an esophageal temperature probe while brain temperature was measured with an implanted thermometer. Two successive experiments were performed on each animal. In the first experiment, brain cooling was initiated by blowing room temperature air from the hospital medical air outlet, at a flow rate of 14–15 L/min into both nostrils for 60 min. The second series of measurements and brain cooling was performed in the same manner as the first one but blowing cold air (− 7 °C) at the same flow rate. Results One hour post cooling with room temperature air at a flow rate of 14–15 L/min, the brain temperature was 34.2 ± 1.2 °C which resulted in mean brain cooling rates of 3.7 ± 0.9 °C/h. Brain temperature could be reduced more rapidly at mean rates of 5.2 ± 1.9 °C/h, while the body temperature as measured by the esophageal temperature probe was maintained above 36 °C during cooling and maintaining period. Conclusions We have demonstrated that using the vortex tube allows initial rapid and SBC in rabbits. Moreover, comparing results between piglets and rabbits demonstrates clearly that the lack of a carotid rete does not prevent specific cooling of the brain by means of the nasopharyngeal method.

Relationship between prolonged neural suppression and cerebral hemodynamic dysfunction during hypothermia in asphyxiated piglets. Brain Dev 2018; 40:649-661.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Hypothermia (HT) improves the outcome of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. Here, we investigated changes during HT in cortical electrical activity using amplitude-integrated electroencephalography (aEEG) and in cerebral blood volume (CBV) and cerebral hemoglobin oxygen saturation using near-infrared time-resolved spectroscopy (TRS) and compared the results with those obtained during normothermia (NT) after a hypoxic-ischemic (HI) insult in a piglet model of asphyxia. We previously reported that a greater increase in CBV can indicate greater pressure-passive cerebral perfusion due to more severe brain injury and correlates with prolonged neural suppression during NT. We hypothesized that when energy metabolism is suppressed during HT, the cerebral hemodynamics of brains with severe injury would be suppressed to a greater extent, resulting in a greater decrease in CBV during HT that would correlate with prolonged neural suppression after insult. METHODS Twenty-six piglets were divided into four groups: control with NT (C-NT, n = 3), control with HT (C-HT, n = 3), HI insult with NT (HI-NT, n = 10), and HI insult with HT (HI-HT, n = 10). TRS and aEEG were performed in all groups until 24 h after the insult. Piglets in the HI-HT group were maintained in a hypothermic state for 24 h after the insult. RESULTS There was a positive linear correlation between changes in CBV at 1, 3, 6, and 12 h after the insult and low-amplitude aEEG (<5 µV) duration after insult in the HI-NT group, but a negative linear correlation between these two parameters at 6 and 12 h after the insult in the HI-HT group. The aEEG background score and low-amplitude EEG duration after the insult did not differ between these two groups. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION A longer low-amplitude EEG duration after insult was associated with a greater CBV decrease during HT in the HI-HT group, suggesting that brains with more severe neural suppression could be more prone to HT-induced suppression of cerebral metabolism and circulation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To delineate the systemic and cerebral hemodynamic response to incremental increases in core temperature during the rewarming phase of therapeutic hypothermia in neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). STUDY DESIGN Continuous hemodynamic data, including heart rate (HR), mean arterial blood pressure (MBP), cardiac output by electrical velocimetry (COEV), arterial oxygen saturation, and renal (RrSO2) and cerebral (CrSO2) regional tissue oxygen saturation, were collected from 4 hours before the start of rewarming to 1 hour after the completion of rewarming. Serial echocardiography and transcranial Doppler were performed at 3 hours and 1 hour before the start of rewarming (T-3 and T-1; "baseline") and at 2, 4, and 7 hours after the start of rewarming (T+2, T+4, and T+7; "rewarming") to determine Cardiac output by echocardiography (COecho), stroke volume, fractional shortening, and middle cerebral artery (MCA) flow velocity indices. Repeated-measures analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS Twenty infants with HIE were enrolled (mean gestational age, 38.8 ± 2 weeks; mean birth weight, 3346 ± 695 g). During rewarming, HR, COecho, and COEV increased from baseline to T+7, and MBP decreased. Despite an increase in fractional shortening, stroke volume remained unchanged. RrSO2 increased, and renal fractional oxygen extraction (FOE) decreased. MCA peak systolic flow velocity increased. There were no changes in CrSO2 or cerebral FOE. CONCLUSIONS In neonates with HIE, CO significantly increases throughout rewarming. This is due to an increase in HR rather than stroke volume and is associated with an increase in renal blood flow. The lack of change in cerebral tissue oxygen saturation and extraction, in conjunction with an increase in MCA peak systolic velocity, suggests that cerebral flow metabolism coupling remained intact during rewarming.

Abstract
Stroke is considered an underlying etiology of the development of seizures. Stroke leads to glucose and oxygen deficiency in neurons, resulting in brain dysfunction and injury. Mild hypothermia is a therapeutic strategy to inhibit stroke‑induced seizures, which may be associated with the regulation of energy metabolism of the brain. Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling and solute carrier family 2, facilitated glucose transporter member (GLUT)‑1 are critical for energy metabolism. Furthermore, mTOR overactivation and GLUT‑1 deficiency are associated with genetically acquired seizures. It has been hypothesized that mTOR and GLUT‑1 may additionally be involved in seizures elicited by stroke. The present study established global cerebral ischemia (GCI) models of rats. Convulsive seizure behaviors frequently occurred during the first and the second days following GCI, which were accompanied with seizure discharge reflected in the EEG monitor. Expression of phosphor (p)‑mTOR and GLUT‑1 were upregulated in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus, as evidenced by immunohistochemistry and western blot analyses. Mild hypothermia and/or rapamycin (mTOR inhibitor) treatments reduced the number of epileptic attacks, seizure severity scores and seizure discharges, thereby alleviating seizures induced by GCI. Mild hypothermia and/or rapamycin treatments reduced phosphorylation levels of mTOR and the downstream effecter p70S6 in neurons, and the amount of GLUT‑1 in the cytomembrane of neurons. The present study revealed that mTOR is involved in stroke‑induced seizures and the anti‑seizure effect of mild hypothermia. The role of GLUT‑1 in stroke‑elicited seizures appears to be different from the role in seizures induced by other reasons. Further studies are necessary in order to elucidate the exact function of GLUT-1 in stroke‑elicited seizures.
