Abstract
An increased intraabdominal pressure, particularly when occurring during periods of hemodynamic instability or fluid overload, is regarded as a major contributor to acute kidney injury (AKI) in intensive care units. During abdominal laparoscopic procedures, intraoperative insufflation pressures up to 15 mmHg are applied, to enable visualization and surgical manipulation but with the potential to compromise net renal perfusion. Despite the widely acknowledged renal arterial autoregulation, net arterial perfusion pressure is known to be narrow, and the effective renal medullary perfusion is disproportionately impacted by venous and lymphatic congestion. At present, the potential risk factors, mitigators and risk-stratification of AKI during surgical pneumoperitoneum formation received relatively limited attention among nephrologists and represent an opportunity to look beyond mere blood pressure and intake-output balances. Careful charting and reporting duration and extent of surgical pneumoperitoneum represents an opportunity for anesthesia teams to better communicate intraoperative factors affecting renal outcomes for the postoperative clinical teams. In this current article, the authors are integrating preclinical data and clinical experience to provide a better understanding to optimize renal perfusion during surgeries. Future studies should carefully consider intrabdominal insufflation pressure as a key variable when assessing outcomes and blood pressure goals in these settings.

Mediators of Regional Kidney Perfusion during Surgical Pneumo-Peritoneum Creation and the Risk of Acute Kidney Injury—A Review of Basic Physiology. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11102728. [PMID: 35628855 PMCID: PMC9142947 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11102728] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2022] [Revised: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 05/05/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI), especially if recurring, represents a risk factor for future chronic kidney disease. In intensive care units, increased intra-abdominal pressure is well-recognized as a significant contributor to AKI. However, the importance of transiently increased intra-abdominal pressures procedures is less commonly appreciated during laparoscopic surgery, the use of which has rapidly increased over the last few decades. Unlike the well-known autoregulation of the renal cortical circulation, medulla perfusion is modulated via partially independent regulatory mechanisms and strongly impacted by changes in venous and lymphatic pressures. In our review paper, we will provide a comprehensive overview of this evolving topic, covering a broad range from basic pathophysiology up to and including current clinical relevance and examples. Key regulators of oxidative stress such as ischemia-reperfusion injury, the activation of inflammatory response and humoral changes interacting with procedural pneumo-peritoneum formation and AKI risk will be recounted. Moreover, we present an in-depth review of the interaction of pneumo-peritoneum formation with general anesthetic agents and animal models of congestive heart failure. A better understanding of the relationship between pneumo-peritoneum formation and renal perfusion will support basic and clinical research, leading to improved clinical care and collaboration among specialists.

Neurobiology of anesthetic-surgical stress and induced behavioral changes in dogs and cats: A review. Vet World 2021; 14:393-404. [PMID: 33776304 PMCID: PMC7994130 DOI: 10.14202/vetworld.2021.393-404] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2020] [Accepted: 01/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The anesthetic-surgical stress response consists of metabolic, neuroendocrine, hemodynamic, immunological, and behavioral adaptations through chemical mediators such as the adrenocorticotropic hormone, growth hormone, antidiuretic hormone, cortisol, aldosterone, angiotensin II, thyroid-stimulating hormone, thyroxine, triiodothyronine, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone, catecholamines, insulin, interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, and prostaglandin E-2. Behavioral changes include adopting the so-called prayer posture, altered facial expressions, hyporexia or anorexia, drowsiness, sleep disorders, restriction of movement, licking or biting the injured area, and vocalizations. Overall, these changes are essential mechanisms to counteract harmful stimuli. However, if uncontrolled surgical stress persists, recovery time may be prolonged, along with increased susceptibility to infections in the post-operative period. This review discusses the neurobiology and most relevant organic responses to pain and anesthetic-surgical stress in dogs and cats. It highlights the role of stress biomarkers and their influence on autonomous and demeanor aspects and emphasizes the importance of understanding and correlating all factors to provide a more accurate assessment of pain and animal welfare in dogs and cats throughout the surgical process.

Abstract
Renal diseases remain devastating illnesses with unacceptably high rates of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Animal models are essential tools to better understand the pathomechanism of kidney-related illnesses and to develop new, successful therapeutic strategies. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been actively explored in the last decades for assessing renal function, perfusion, tissue oxygenation as well as the degree of fibrosis and inflammation. This chapter aims to provide an overview of the preparation and monitoring of small animals before, during, and after surgical interventions or MR imaging. Standardization of experimental settings such as body temperature or hydration of animals and minimizing pain and distress are essential for diminishing nonexperimental variables as well as for conducting ethical research.This publication is based upon work from the COST Action PARENCHIMA, a community-driven network funded by the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) program of the European Union, which aims to improve the reproducibility and standardization of renal MRI biomarkers.

Abstract
This work evaluates solid lipid nanoparticles of thiopental sodium against obesity-induced cardiac dysfunction and hypertrophy and explores the possible mechanism of action. TS loaded SLNs were formulated by hot-homogenization and solvent diffusion method. TS-SLNs were scrutinized for entrapment efficiency, drug loading capacity, gastric stability, particle size, in vitro drug release. Mice were feed with the normal chow or high-fat diet for 08 weeks to induce obesity and primary cardiomyocytes. The therapeutic effects of thiopental sodium in the high fat diet (HFD) induced cardiac hypertrophy. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) was estimated at a regular time interval. At the end of the experimental study, systolic pressure left ventricular, LV end-diastolic pressure and rate of increase of LV pressure and antioxidant, apoptosis, cytokines and inflammatory scrutinized. HFD induced group mice exhibited a reduction in the body weight and enhancement of cardiac hypertrophy marker and dose-dependent treatment of thiopental sodium up-regulation the body weight and down-regulated the cardiac hypertrophy. Thiopental sodium significantly (p < .001) dose-dependently altered the antioxidant, biochemical, cardiac parameters and remodeling. Thiopental sodium significantly (p < .001) dose-dependently reduced the SBP. Thiopental sodium altered the apoptosis marker, pro-inflammatory cytokines, inflammatory parameters along with reduced the p38-MAPK level. The cardiac protective effect of thiopental sodium shed light on future therapeutic interventions in obesity and related cardiovascular complications via inflammatory pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Renal protection is a critical concept for anesthesiologists, nephrologists, and urologists, since anesthesia and renal function are highly interconnected and can potentially interfere with one another. Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of anesthetic drugs and their effects on renal function remains fundamental to the success of renal surgeries, especially transplant procedures. Some experimental studies have shown that some anesthetics provide protection against renal ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury, but there is limited clinical evidence. SUMMARY The effects of anesthetic drugs on renal failure are particularly important in the context of kidney transplantation, since the conditions of preservation following removal profoundly influence the recovery of organ function. Currently, preservation procedures are typically based on the usage of a cold-storage solution. Some anesthetic drugs induce anti-inflammatory, anti-necrotic, and anti-apoptotic effects. A more thorough understanding of anesthetic effects on renal function can present a novel approach for developing organ-protective strategies. The aim of this review is to discuss the effects of different anesthetic drugs on renal function, with particular focus on IR injury. Many studies have demonstrated the organ-protective effects of some anesthetic drugs, specifically propofol, which indicate the potential of some anesthetics to introduce novel organ protective targets. This is not surprising, since lipid emulsions are major components of propofol, which accumulating data show provide organ protective effects against IR injury. Key Messages: Thorough understanding of the interaction between anesthetic drugs and renal function remains fundamental to the delivery of safe perioperative care and to optimizing outcomes after renal surgeries, particularly transplant procedures. Anesthetics can be repurposed for organ protection with more information about their effects, especially during transplant procedures. Here, we review the effects of different anesthetic drugs - specifically those that contain lipids in their structure, with special reference to IR injury.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the immune response to injectable anesthetics and sedatives and to compare the immunomodulatory properties between inhalation and injectable anesthetic protocols. STUDY DESIGN Review. METHODS AND DATABASES Multiple literature searches were performed using PubMed and Google Scholar from March 2012 through November 2013. Relevant anesthetic and immune terms were used to search databases without year published or species constraints. The online database for Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia and the Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care were searched by issue starting in 2000 for relevant articles. CONCLUSION Sedatives, injectable anesthetics, opioids, and local anesthetics have immunomodulatory effects that may have positive or negative consequences on disease processes such as endotoxemia, generalized sepsis, tumor growth and metastasis, and ischemia-reperfusion injury. Therefore, anesthetists should consider the immunomodulatory effects of anesthetic drugs when designing anesthetic protocols for their patients.

Abstract
Background Emulsified isoflurane (EIso) is a novel intravenous general anesthetic, which can provide rapid anesthetic induction and recovery. EIso preconditioning could attenuate heart, lung and liver ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. We tested the hypothesis that intravenous pretreatment with EIso would protect kidneys against I/R injury by inhibiting systemic inflammatory responses and improving renal antioxidative ability. Methods Rats were randomly divided into these six groups: sham, I/R, intralipid, 1, 2 or 4 ml/kg EIso. Rats were subjected to 45 min left renal pedicle occlusion followed by 3 h reperfusion after right nephrectomy. Rat were treated with intravenous 8% EIso with 1, 2 or 4 ml/kg, or 30% intralipid with 2 ml/kg for 30 min before ischemia, respectively. After reperfusion, renal functional parameters, serum mediator concentrations and markers of oxidative stress in kidney tissues were determined, and renal histopathological analysis were performed. Results Serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, cystatin c, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, and interleukin-10 concentrations were significantly increased after renal I/R as compared to the sham group. So was renal tissue MDA content and histological scores, but renal tissue SOD activity was decreased. Additionally, severe morphological damages were observed in these study groups. In contrast, 2 or 4 ml/kg EIso reduced serum creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, cystatin c, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interleukin-6 levels, decreased renal tissue MDA content and histological scores, increased serum interleukin-10 level and tissue SOD activity as compared to the I/R, intralipid and 1 ml/kg EIso groups. Renal morphological damages were alleviated after pretreatment of 2 or 4 ml/kg EIso. Conclusions Intravenous EIso produces preconditioning against renal I/R injury in rats, which might be mediated by attenuating inflammation and increasing antioxidation ability.

Abstract
The effects of intravenous anesthetics on ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) have been investigated in both animals and clinical studies. The protective effects and the dosages of the intravenous anesthetics on IRI were discussed in this paper. The prevention of the tissue injury after the IRI was demonstrated with intravenous anesthetics in some studies. In the future, the studies should be focused on the dosage of the anesthetics related to diminishing the tissue injuries. Further studies might be required in order to investigate the effects of the anesthetics on molecular levels.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the antioxidant profile of anesthetics and its relation to total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of plasma in children who underwent tourniquet-induced ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury during extremity operations. METHODS Children were randomized into three groups: general inhalational anesthesia with sevoflurane (group S), total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol (group T), and regional anesthesia (group R). Venous blood samples were obtained before peripheral nerve block and induction of general anesthesia (baseline), 1 minute before tourniquet release (BTR), and 5 and 20 minutes after tourniquet release (ATR). Plasma TAC as well as antioxidant potential of propofol, thiopental, and bupivacaine were measured using the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. RESULTS Plasma TAC in group T was increased significantly at 20 minutes ATR in comparison with basal and BTR values, and also was significantly higher in comparison with plasma TAC in groups S and R measured at the same time point. The radical scavenging activity of anesthetics in vitro indicated that only propofol possessed a significant antioxidative activity in the reaction with DPPH radical in comparison with thiopental and bupivacaine. DISCUSSION These data confirm that TIVA with propofol attenuates oxidative stress related to tourniquet-induced ischaemia-reperfusion injury in children.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the role of the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathway in normal human gastric epithelial (GES-1) cells under hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) in vitro, and the effect of propofol on injured GES-1 cells as well as its possible mechanism. Before H/R induction, GES-1 cells were preconditioned with fat emulsion, propofol, or epigallocatechin gallate. Then cell viability, cell apoptosis, and related molecules in the cells were analyzed under experimental conditions. We found that propofol 50 μmol/L markedly inhibited the H/R injury under hypoxia 1.5 h/reoxygenation 2 hours by promoting GES-1 cell viability and decreasing cell apoptosis. The TLR4 signal may be involved in the protective effect of propofol against H/R injury. The malondialdehyde contents and superoxide dismutase activities were recovered under propofol preconditioning. In summary, propofol preconditioning may exert a protective effect on H/R injury in GES-1 cells and the mechanism may be via inhibition of the activated TLR4 signal under H/R conditions.

Abstract
Free radicals are highly reactive and unstable compounds. These highly reactive molecules cause oxidative damage to cellular components such as DNA, proteins and lipids. They play central role in the mechanism of cell injury and cell death. Free radical scavengers either prevent these reactive species from being formed, or remove them before they can damage vital components of the cell. Oxidative stress defines an imbalance in production of oxidizing chemical species and their effective removal by protective antioxidants and scavenger enzymes. Evidence of massive oxidative stress is well established in critical illnesses characterized by tissue ischaemia-reperfusion injury and by an intense systemic inflammatory response such as during sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome, acute lung injury. Several clinical trials have been performed in order to reduce oxidative stress by supplementation of antioxidants alone or in combination with standard therapies. Antioxidant supplementation at an early stage of illness may lead to improved therapies in the treatment of critically ill patients. Several intravenous anaesthetic drugs act as reactive oxygen species scavengers. Anaesthetic preconditioning is of particular interest to anaesthesiologist, in which lasting protection of myocardium is elicited by brief exposure to a inhalational anaesthetic agent. These anasthetics may also mediate protective effects in other organs, such as the brain and kidney It is important for the anaesthesiologist to understand the mechanism of damage caused by free radicals and how free radical scavengers work so that this knowledge can be applied to varied pathological conditions. The topic was hand searched in text books and electronically searched from PubMed and Google scholar using text words.

Abstract
PURPOSE This experimental study aimed to investigate the antioxidant effects of propofol anesthesia at induction doses in a rat skeletal muscle ischemia/reperfusion injury model. METHODS Twenty-six rats were randomly divided into three groups to receive one of the following interventions: sham operation (n = 6), ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury (n = 10), or propofol administration in addition to I/R injury (n = 10). I/R injury was attained by 2-h clamping of femoral artery followed by 3-h perfusion. Then blood and tissue samples were collected for biochemical analysis and histopathologic examination. Glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme activities and nitric oxide (NO) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were measured in both plasma and muscle tissue. In addition, catalase (CAT) activity and protein carbonyl (PC) content were measured in muscle tissue. RESULTS I/R group had significantly higher SOD activity (9.05 versus 5.63 and 6.18 U/mL, P < 0.05) and NO level (46.77 versus 30.62 and 33.90 μmol/L, P < 0.05) compared with sham-operated group and I/R plus propofol group. In addition, GSH-Px activity of the I/R group was significantly higher than sham-operated group (1.26 versus 1.05 U/mL, P < 0.05). I/R group had significantly higher tissue activities of CAT (0.11 versus 0.06 and 0.04 k/g protein, P < 0.05) and SOD (0.12 versus 0.08 and 0.07 U/mg protein, P < 0.05) compared with the sham and I/R plus propofol group. Histopathologic examination showed that I/R plus propofol group had significantly lower degeneration (P = 0.021) and inflammation (P = 0.028) scores compared with I/R group. CONCLUSION Propofol anesthesia seems to enhance the antioxidant capacity against tourniquet induced ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In the current graft shortage, it is paramount to improve the quality of transplanted organs. Organ preservation represents an underused therapeutic window with great potential to reduce ischaemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and improve graft quality. Herein, we review strategies using this window as well as other promising work targeting IRI pathways using pharmacological treatments and gene therapy. RECENT FINDINGS We highlight studies using molecules administered during kidney preservation to target key components of IRI such as inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial activity and the coagulation pathway. We further expose recent studies of gene therapy directed against inflammation or apoptosis during cold storage. Other pathways with potential therapeutic molecules are cited. SUMMARY The use of cold preservation as a therapeutic window to deliver pharmacological or gene therapy treatments can significantly improve both short-term and long-term graft outcomes. Even if human gene therapy remains hampered by the quantity of agent needed and the potential harmfulness of the vector, it clearly offers a wide array of possibilities for the future. Although gene therapy is still too immature, we expose pharmacological strategies which can readily be applied to the clinic and improve both transplantation success rates and the patients' quality of life.
