Evaluating Physiological MRI Parameters in Patients with Brain Metastases Undergoing Stereotactic Radiosurgery-A Preliminary Analysis and Case Report. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:4298. [PMID: 37686575 PMCID: PMC10487230 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15174298] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Brain metastases occur in ten to thirty percent of the adult cancer population. Treatment consists of different (palliative) options, including stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS). Sensitive MRI biomarkers are needed to better understand radiotherapy-related effects on cerebral physiology and the subsequent effects on neurocognitive functioning. In the current study, we used physiological imaging techniques to assess cerebral blood flow (CBF), oxygen extraction fraction (OEF), cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen (CMRO2) and cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) before and three months after SRS in nine patients with brain metastases. The results showed improvement in OEF, CBF and CMRO2 within brain tissue that recovered from edema (all p ≤ 0.04), while CVR remained impacted. We observed a global post-radiotherapy increase in CBF in healthy-appearing brain tissue (p = 0.02). A repeated measures correlation analysis showed larger reductions within regions exposed to higher radiotherapy doses in CBF (rrm = -0.286, p < 0.001), CMRO2 (rrm = -0.254, p < 0.001), and CVR (rrm = -0.346, p < 0.001), but not in OEF (rrm = -0.004, p = 0.954). Case analyses illustrated the impact of brain metastases progression on the post-radiotherapy changes in both physiological MRI measures and cognitive performance. Our preliminary findings suggest no radiotherapy effects on physiological parameters occurred in healthy-appearing brain tissue within 3-months post-radiotherapy. Nevertheless, as radiotherapy can have late side effects, larger patient samples allowing meaningful grouping of patients and longer follow-ups are needed.

Abstract
The loss of cerebral autoregulation (CA) is a common and detrimental secondary injury mechanism following acute brain injury and has been associated with worse morbidity and mortality. However patient outcomes have not as yet been conclusively proven to have improved as a result of CA-directed therapy. While CA monitoring has been used to modify CPP targets, this approach cannot work if the impairment of CA is not simply related to CPP but involves other underlying mechanisms and triggers, which at present are largely unknown. Neuroinflammation, particularly inflammation affecting the cerebral vasculature, is an important cascade that occurs following acute injury. We hypothesise that disturbances to the cerebral vasculature can affect the regulation of CBF, and hence the vascular inflammatory pathways could be a putative mechanism that causes CA dysfunction. This review provides a brief overview of CA, and its impairment following brain injury. We discuss candidate vascular and endothelial markers and what is known about their link to disturbance of the CBF and autoregulation. We focus on human traumatic brain injury (TBI) and subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH), with supporting evidence from animal work and applicability to wider neurologic diseases.

Abstract
Although cardiac and aortic operations have been successfully performed for more than 60 years, the risk of neurologic complications remains high. In particular, the rate of stroke with cardiac operations continues to be significant in the 1%-5% range. Similarly, the risk of stroke with aortic operations remains in the range of 7%-10% despite many years of improving techniques. Because of this persistently high risk, the use of intra-operative neurophysiologic monitoring (IONM) has the potential of improving outcomes. This chapter provides an overview of cardiac/aortic arch procedures from the neurophysiologic standpoint and discusses the roles of different monitoring modalities in detecting injury.

The critical closing pressure contribution to dynamic cerebral autoregulation in humans: influence of arterial partial pressure of CO 2. J Physiol 2020; 598:5673-5685. [PMID: 32975820 DOI: 10.1113/jp280439] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/16/2020] [Indexed: 03/07/2024] Open
Abstract
KEY POINTS Dynamic cerebral autoregulation (CA) is often expressed by the mean arterial blood pressure (MAP)-cerebral blood flow (CBF) relationship, with little attention given to the dynamic relationship between MAP and cerebrovascular resistance (CVR). In CBF velocity (CBFV) recordings with transcranial Doppler, evidence demonstrates that CVR should be replaced by a combination of a resistance-area product (RAP) with a critical closing pressure (CrCP) parameter, the blood pressure value where CBFV reaches zero due to vessels collapsing. Transfer function analysis of the MAP-CBFV relationship can be extended to the MAP-RAP and MAP-CrCP relationships, to assess their contribution to the dynamic CA response. During normocapnia, both RAP and CrCP make a significant contribution to explaining the MAP-CBFV relationship. Hypercapnia, a surrogate state of depressed CA, leads to marked changes in dynamic CA, that are entirely explained by the CrCP response, without further contribution from RAP in comparison with normocapnia. ABSTRACT Dynamic cerebral autoregulation (CA) is manifested by changes in the diameter of intra-cerebral vessels, which control cerebrovascular resistance (CVR). We investigated the contribution of critical closing pressure (CrCP), an important determinant of CVR, to explain the cerebral blood flow (CBF) response to a sudden change in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP). In 76 healthy subjects (age range 21-70 years, 36 women), recordings of MAP (Finometer), CBF velocity (CBFV; transcranial Doppler ultrasound), end-tidal CO2 (capnography) and heart rate (ECG) were performed for 5 min at rest (normocapnia) and during hypercapnia induced by breathing 5% CO2 in air. CrCP and the resistance-area product (RAP) were obtained for each cardiac cycle and their dynamic response to a step change in MAP was calculated by means of transfer function analysis. The recovery of the CBFV response, following a step change in MAP, was mainly due to the contribution of RAP during both breathing conditions. However, CrCP made a highly significant contribution during normocapnia (P < 0.0001) and was the sole determinant of changes in the CBFV response, resulting from hypercapnia, which led to a reduction in the autoregulation index from 5.70 ± 1.58 (normocapnia) to 4.14 ± 2.05 (hypercapnia; P < 0.0001). In conclusion, CrCP makes a very significant contribution to the dynamic CBFV response to changes in MAP and plays a major role in explaining the deterioration of dynamic CA induced by hypercapnia. Further studies are needed to assess the relevance of CrCP contribution in physiological and clinical studies.

Abstract
Impaired cerebrovascular reactivity in adult moderate and severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is known to be associated with worse global outcome at 6-12 months. As technology has improved over the past decades, monitoring of cerebrovascular reactivity has shifted from intermittent measures, to experimentally validated continuously updating indices at the bedside. Such advances have led to the exploration of individualised physiologic targets in adult TBI management, such as optimal cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) values, or CPP limits in which vascular reactivity is relatively intact. These targets have been shown to have a stronger association with outcome compared with existing consensus-based guideline thresholds in severe TBI care. This has sparked ongoing prospective trials of such personalised medicine approaches in adult TBI. In this narrative review paper, we focus on the concept of cerebral autoregulation, proposed mechanisms of control and methods of continuous monitoring used in TBI. We highlight multimodal cranial monitoring approaches for continuous cerebrovascular reactivity assessment, physiologic and neuroimaging correlates, and associations with outcome. Finally, we explore the recent 'state-of-the-art' advances in personalised physiologic targets based on continuous cerebrovascular reactivity monitoring, their benefits, and implications for future avenues of research in TBI.

Abstract
Cerebral autoregulatory dysfunction after traumatic brain injury (TBI) is strongly linked to poor global outcome in patients at 6 months after injury. However, our understanding of the drivers of this dysfunction is limited. Genetic variation among individuals within a population gives rise to single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that have the potential to influence a given patient's cerebrovascular response to an injury. Associations have been reported between a variety of genetic polymorphisms and global outcome in patients with TBI, but few studies have explored the association between genetic variants and cerebrovascular function after injury. In this Review, we explore polymorphisms that might play an important part in cerebral autoregulatory capacity after TBI. We outline a variety of SNPs, their biological substrates and their potential role in mediating cerebrovascular reactivity. A number of candidate polymorphisms exist in genes that are involved in myogenic, endothelial, metabolic and neurogenic vascular responses to injury. Furthermore, polymorphisms in genes involved in inflammation, the central autonomic response and cortical spreading depression might drive cerebrovascular reactivity. Identification of candidate genes involved in cerebral autoregulation after TBI provides a platform and rationale for further prospective investigation of the link between genetic polymorphisms and autoregulatory function.

Abstract
We describe the validation methodology for the NIRS based FORE-SIGHT ELITE® (CAS Medical Systems, Inc., Branford, CT, USA) tissue oximeter for cerebral and somatic tissue oxygen saturation (StO2) measurements for adult subjects submitted to the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to obtain clearance for clinical use. This validation methodology evolved from a history of NIRS validations in the literature and FDA recommended use of Deming regression and bootstrapping statistical validation methods. For cerebral validation, forehead cerebral StO2 measurements were compared to a weighted 70:30 reference (REF CXB) of co-oximeter internal jugular venous and arterial blood saturation of healthy adult subjects during a controlled hypoxia sequence, with a sensor placed on the forehead. For somatic validation, somatic StO2 measurements were compared to a weighted 70:30 reference (REF CXS) of co-oximetry central venous and arterial saturation values following a similar protocol, with sensors place on the flank, quadriceps muscle, and calf muscle. With informed consent, 25 subjects successfully completed the cerebral validation study. The bias and precision (1 SD) of cerebral StO2 compared to REF CXB was −0.14 ± 3.07%. With informed consent, 24 subjects successfully completed the somatic validation study. The bias and precision of somatic StO2 compared to REF CXS was 0.04 ± 4.22% from the average of flank, quadriceps, and calf StO2 measurements to best represent the global whole body REF CXS. The NIRS validation methods presented potentially provide a reliable means to test NIRS monitors and qualify them for clinical use.

Abstract
The neonatal brain is extremely vulnerable to injury during periods of hypoxia and/or ischemia. Risk of brain injury is increased during neonatal cardiac surgery, where pre-existing hemodynamic instability and metabolic abnormalities are combined with long periods of low cerebral blood flow and/or circulatory arrest. Our understanding of events associated with cerebral hypoxia-ischemia during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) remains limited, largely due to inadequate tools to quantify cerebral oxygen delivery and consumption non-invasively and in real-time. This pilot study aims to evaluate cerebral blood flow (CBF) and oxygen metabolism (CMRO2) intraoperatively in neonates by combining two novel non-invasive optical techniques: frequency-domain near-infrared spectroscopy (FD-NIRS) and diffuse correlation spectroscopy (DCS). CBF and CMRO2 were quantified before, during and after deep hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in nine neonates. Our results show significantly decreased CBF and CMRO2 during hypothermic CPB. More interestingly, a change of coupling between both variables is observed during deep hypothermic CPB in all subjects. Our results are consistent with previous studies using invasive techniques, supporting the concept of FD-NIRS/DCS as a promising technology to monitor cerebral physiology in neonates providing the potential for individual optimization of surgical management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is unknown whether targeted temperature management (TTM) improves survival after pediatric out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The aim of this study was to assess the evolution, safety and efficacy of TTM (32-34 °C) compared to standard temperature management (STM) (<38 °C). METHODS Retrospective, single center cohort study. Patients aged >one day up to 16 years, admitted to a UK Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) after OHCA (January 2004-December 2010). Primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge; efficacy and safety outcomes included: application of TTM, physiological, hematological and biochemical side effects. RESULTS Seventy-three patients were included. Thirty-eight patients (52%) received TTM (32-34 °C). Prior to ILCOR guidance adoption in January 2007, TTM was used infrequently (4/25; 16%). Following adoption, TTM (32-34 °C) use increased significantly (34/48; 71% Chi(2); p < 0.0001). TTM (32-34 °C) and STM (<38 °C) groups were similar at baseline. TTM (32-34 °C) was associated with bradycardia and hypotension compared to STM (<38 °C). TTM (32-34 °C) reduced episodes of hyperthermia (>38 °C) in the 1st 24h; however, excessive hypothermia (<32 °C) and hyperthermia (>38 °C) occurred in both groups up to 72 h, and all patients (n = 11) experiencing temperature <32 °C died. The study was underpowered to determine a difference in hospital survival (34% (TTM (32-34 °C)) versus 23% (STM (<38 °C)); p = 0.284). However, the TTM (32-34 °C) group had a significantly longer PICU length of stay. CONCLUSIONS TTM (32-34 °C) was feasible but associated with bradycardia, hypotension, and increased length of stay in PICU. Temperature <32 °C had a universally grave prognosis. Larger studies are required to assess effect on survival.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Sepsis-associated encephalopathy is a multifactorially determined process of the brain parenchyma. Among other factors, vasogenic causes have been shown to play a role in its development. The aim of the present work was to assess whether cerebral tissue oxygen saturation is influenced by administration of acetazolamide in septic patients compared to controls. PATIENTS AND METHODS 15 patients with severe sepsis and 10 healthy controls were studied. Cerebral oxygen saturation was assessed by INVOS 51 OOC Cerebral Oxymeter (NIRS) before and after administration of 15 mg/kg BW acetazolamide in both groups. RESULTS The maximal rise that has been found in the partial pressure of CO(2) in the arterial blood of septic patients after administration of acetazolamide was from 35 ± 5 mmHg to 41.1 ± 6.3 mmHg. For the partial pressure of O(2) the observed increase was from 123.7 ± 47.1 mmHg to 139.9 ± 49 mmHg. Vasodilatory stimulus resulted in a similar maximal increase in cerebral oxygen saturation in septic patients and in controls (8.9 ± 6.5% for septic patients and 9.2 ± 4.6% for healthy persons, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Cerebral vasoreactivity to acetazolamide is preserved in patients with severe sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Regional oxygen saturation (rSO(2)) is a sensitive marker of cerebral hypoperfusion during liver transplantation. However, bilirubin absorbs near-infrared light, resulting in falsely low rSO(2) values. We sought to determine whether rSO(2) values vary in response to bilirubin concentrations during liver transplantation and to assess whether rSO(2) changes were associated with factors reflecting cerebral oxygen delivery in patients with hyperbilirubinemia. METHODS Measurements of rSO(2) values continuous cardiac output (CO), mean arterial pressure, central venous pressure, body temperature, arterial blood gas analysis, and laboratory parameters were simultaneously performed at 1 hour after the surgical incision (baseline) and at 3 predetermined times during the anhepatic and neohepatic phases in 95 end-stage liver disease patients including 67 males of Child A/B/C/29/29/37 categories respectively. Relationships between changes in parameters were evaluated by correlation and multivariate regression analyses. RESULTS The 273 measurements revealed changes in rSO(2) (range, -18% to 40%) to correlate significantly with alterations in hemoglobin (Hb), serum glucose, lactate, prothrombin time, pH, partial arterial CO(2) pressure (PaCO(2)), and CO, but not with serum total bilirubin (TB). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that changes in Hb, CO, PaCO(2), and pH were independent of rSO(2) changes during liver transplantation. CONCLUSIONS Our findings showed that rSO(2) changes were independently associated with factors reflecting cerebral oxygen delivery, such as Hb, CO, PaCO(2), and pH, whereas rSO(2) values did not correlate with changes in bilirubin concentrations, indicating that rSO(2) changes reveal cerebral oxygen balance regardless of TB levels among patients undergoing liver transplantation.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pathophysiology of sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is not entirely clear, but one of the possible underlying mechanisms is the alteration of the cerebral microvascular function. The aim of the present work was to test whether cerebral vasomotor reactivity is impaired in patients with severe sepsis. METHODS Patients fulfilling the criteria of clinical sepsis and showing at least 2 organ dysfunctions were included (n = 16). Nonseptic healthy persons without previous diseases affecting cerebral vasoreactivity served as controls (n = 16). Transcranial Doppler blood flow velocities were measured at rest and at 5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes after intravenous administration of 15 mg/kg acetazolamide. The time course of the acetazolamide effect on cerebral blood flow velocity (cerebrovascular reactivity [CVR]) and the maximal vasodilatory effect of acetazolemide (cerebrovascular reserve capacity [CRC]) were compared among the groups. RESULTS Absolute blood flow velocities after administration of the vasodilator drug did not differ between control and septic patients. Assessment of the time course of the vasomotor reaction showed that patients with sepsis reacted in a similar fashion to the vasodilatory stimulus than control persons. When assessing the maximal vasodilatory ability of the cerebral arterioles to acetazolamide during vasomotor testing, we found that there was no difference in vasodilatory ability between septic and healthy subjects (CRC controls, 54.8% ± 11.1%; CRC sepsis-associated encephalopathy, 61.1% ± 34.4%; P = .49). CONCLUSIONS We conclude that cerebrovascular reactivity is not impaired in patients with severe sepsis. It is conceivable that cerebral vasoreactivity may be differently involved at different severity stages of the septic process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of pH-stat and α-stat management before deep hypothermic circulatory arrest followed by a period of low-flow (two rates) cardiopulmonary bypass on cortical oxygenation and selected regulatory proteins: Bax, Bcl-2, Caspase-3, and phospho-Akt. DESIGN Piglets were placed on cardiopulmonary bypass, cooled with pH-stat or α-stat management to 18 °C over 30 mins, subjected to 30-min deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and 1-hr low flow at 20 mL/kg/min (LF-20) or 50 mL/kg/min (LF-50), rewarmed to 37 °C, separated from cardiopulmonary bypass, and recovered for 6 hrs. SUBJECTS Newborn piglets, 2-5 days old, assigned randomly to experimental groups. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Cortical oxygen was measured by oxygen-dependent quenching of phosphorescence; proteins were measured by Western blots. The means from six experiments ± sem are presented as % of α-stat. Significance was determined by Student's t test. For LF-20, cortical oxygenation was similar for α-stat and pH-stat, whereas for LF-50, it was significantly better using pH-stat. For LF-20, the measured proteins were not different except for Bax in the cortex (214 ± 24%, p = .006) and hippocampus (118 ± 6%, p = .024) and Caspase 3 in striatum (126% ± 7%, p = .019). For LF-50, in pH-stat group: In cortex, Bax and Caspase-3 were lower (72 ± 8%, p = .001 and 72 ± 10%, p = .004, respectively) and pAkt was higher (138 ± 12%, p = .049). In hippocampus, Bcl-2 and Bax were not different but pAkt was higher (212 ± 37%, p = .005) and Caspase 3 was lower (84 ± 4%, p = .018). In striatum, Bax and pAkt did not differ, but Bcl-2 increased (146 ± 11%, p = .001) and Caspase-3 decreased (81 ± 11%, p = .042). CONCLUSIONS In this deep hypothermic circulatory arrest-LF model, when flow was 20 mL/kg/min, there was little difference between α-stat and pH-stat management. However, for LF-50, pH-stat management resulted in better cortical oxygenation during recovery and Bax, Bcl-2, pAk, and Caspase-3 changes were consistent with lesser activation of proapoptotic signaling with pH-stat than with α-stat.

Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia is a means of neuroprotection well established in the management of acute ischemic brain injuries such as anoxic encephalopathy after cardiac arrest and perinatal asphyxia. As such, it is the only neuroprotective strategy for which there is robust evidence for efficacy. Although there is overwhelming evidence from animal studies that cooling also improves outcome after focal cerebral ischemia, this has not been adequately tested in patients with acute ischemic stroke. There are still some uncertainties about crucial factors relating to the delivery of hypothermia, and the resolution of these would allow improvements in the design of phase III studies in these patients and improvements in the prospects for successful translation. In this study, we discuss critical issues relating first to the targets for therapy including the optimal depth and duration of cooling, second to practical issues including the methods of cooling and the management of shivering, and finally, of factors relating to the design of clinical trials. Consideration of these factors should inform the development of strategies to establish beyond doubt the place of hypothermia in the management of acute ischemic stroke.
