Abstract
BACKGROUND Significant long-term neurologic disability occurs in survivors of pediatric cardiac arrest, primarily due to hypoxic-ischemic brain injury. Postresuscitation care focuses on preventing secondary injury and the pathophysiologic cascade that leads to neuronal cell death. These injury processes include reperfusion injury, perturbations in cerebral blood flow, disturbed oxygen metabolism, impaired autoregulation, cerebral edema, and hyperthermia. Postresuscitation care also focuses on early injury stratification to allow clinicians to identify patients who could benefit from neuroprotective interventions in clinical trials and enable targeted therapeutics. METHODS In this review, we provide an overview of postcardiac arrest pathophysiology, explore the role of neuromonitoring in understanding postcardiac arrest cerebral physiology, and summarize the evidence supporting the use of neuromonitoring devices to guide pediatric postcardiac arrest care. We provide an in-depth review of the neuromonitoring modalities that measure cerebral perfusion, oxygenation, and function, as well as neuroimaging, serum biomarkers, and the implications of targeted temperature management. RESULTS For each modality, we provide an in-depth review of its impact on treatment, its ability to stratify hypoxic-ischemic brain injury severity, and its role in neuroprognostication. CONCLUSION Potential therapeutic targets and future directions are discussed, with the hope that multimodality monitoring can shift postarrest care from a one-size-fits-all model to an individualized model that uses cerebrovascular physiology to reduce secondary brain injury, increase accuracy of neuroprognostication, and improve outcomes.

Abstract
Background. Predicting neurological outcomes after hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI) is difficult. Objective. Electroencephalography (EEG) can identify acute and subacute brain abnormalities after hypoxic brain injury and predict HIBI recovery. We examined EEG's ability to predict neurologic outcomes following HIBI. Method. A PRISMA-compliant search was conducted in the Medline, Embase, Cochrane, and Central databases until January 2023. EEG-predicted neurological outcomes in HIBI patients were selected from relevant perspective and retrospective cohort studies. RevMan did meta-analysis, while QDAS2 assessed research quality. Results. Eleven studies with 3761 HIBI patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. We aggregated study-level estimates of sensitivity and specificity for EEG patterns determined a priori using random effect bivariate and univariate meta-analysis when appropriate. Positive indicators and anatomical area heterogeneity impacted prognosis accuracy. Funnel plots analyzed publication bias. Significant heterogeneity of greater than 80% was among the included studies with P < 0.001. The area under the curve was 0.94, the threshold effect was P < 0.001, and the sensitivity and specificity, with 95% confidence intervals, were 0.91 (0.84-0.99) and 0.86 (0.75-0.97). EEG detects status epilepticus and burst suppression with good sensitivity, specificity, and little probability of false-negative impairment result attribution. Study quality varied by domain, but patient flow and timing were well conducted in all. Conclusion. EEG can predict the outcome of HIBI with good prognostic accuracy, but more standardized cross-study protocols and descriptions of EEG patterns are needed to better evaluate its prognostic use for patients with HIBI.

Abstract
Cerebral ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury is the leading cause of death in severe hypotension caused by cardiac arrest, drowning, and excessive blood loss. Urine can sensitively reflect pathophysiological changes in the brain even at an early stage. In this study, a rat model of global cerebral I/R injury was established via Pulsinelli’s four-vessel occlusion (4-VO) method. Overall, 164 urinary proteins significantly changed in the 4-VO rat urine samples compared to the control samples by data-independent acquisition (DIA) proteomics technique (1.5-fold change, p < 0.05). Gene Ontology annotation showed that the acute-phase response, the ERK1 and ERK2 cascade, endopeptidase activity, blood coagulation, and angiogenesis were overrepresented. After parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) validation, 15 differential proteins having human orthologs were verified as the potential urinary markers associated with cerebral I/R injury. Of these potential biomarkers, 8 proteins were reported to be closely associated with cerebral I/R injury. Nine differential proteins changed even when there were no clinical manifestations or histopathological cerebral damage, including FGG, COMP, TFF2, HG2A, KNG1, CATZ, PTGDS, PRVA, and HEPC. These 9 proteins are potential biomarkers for early screening of cerebral I/R injury to prevent the development of cerebral injury. KNG1, CATZ, PTGDS, PRVA, and HEPC showed an overall trend of upregulation or downregulation at 12 and 48 h after I/R injury, reflecting the progression of cerebral I/R injury. These 5 proteins may serve as potential biomarkers for prognostic evaluation of cerebral I/R injury. These findings provide important clues to inform the monitoring of cerebral I/R injury and further the current understanding of its molecular biological mechanisms.

Abstract
Our core body temperature is held around [Formula: see text]C by an effective internal thermoregulatory system. However, various clinical scenarios have a more favorable outcome under external temperature regulation. Therapeutic hypothermia, for example, was found beneficial for the outcome of resuscitated cardiac arrest patients due to its protection against cerebral ischemia. Nonetheless, practice shows that outcomes of targeted temperature management vary considerably in dependence on individual tissue damage levels and differences in therapeutic strategies and protocols. Here, we address these differences in detail by means of computational modeling. We develop a multi-segment and multi-node thermoregulatory model that takes into account details related to specific post-cardiac arrest-related conditions, such as thermal imbalances due to sedation and anesthesia, increased metabolic rates induced by inflammatory processes, and various external cooling techniques. In our simulations, we track the evolution of the body temperature in patients subjected to post-resuscitation care, with particular emphasis on temperature regulation via an esophageal heat transfer device, on the examination of the alternative gastric cooling with ice slurry, and on how anesthesia and the level of inflammatory response influence thermal behavior. Our research provides a better understanding of the heat transfer processes and therapies used in post-cardiac arrest patients.

Abstract
Neuromonitoring has become more standardized in adult neurocritical care, but the utility of different neuromonitoring modalities in children remains debated. We aimed to describe the use of neuromonitoring in critically ill children with and without primary neurological diseases. We conducted a retrospective review of patients admitted to a 32-bed, non-cardiac PICU during a 12-month period. Neuro-imaging, electroencephalogram (EEG), cerebral oximetry (NIRS), automated pupillometry, transcranial doppler (TCD), intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring, brain tissue oxygenation (PbtO2), primary diagnosis, and outcome were extracted. Neuromonitoring use by primary diagnosis and associations with outcome were observed. Of 1946 patients, 420 received neuro-imaging or neuromonitoring. Primary non-neurological diagnoses most frequently receiving neuromonitoring were respiratory, hematologic/oncologic, gastrointestinal/liver, and infectious/inflammatory. The most frequently used technologies among non-neurological diagnoses were neuro-imaging, EEG, pupillometry, and NIRS. In the multivariate analysis, pupillometry use was associated with mortality, and EEG, NIRS, and neuro-imaging use were associated with disability. Frequencies of TCD and PbtO2 use were too small for analysis. Neuromonitoring is prevalent among various diagnoses in the PICU, without clear benefit on outcomes when used in an ad hoc fashion. We need standard guidance around who, when, and how neuromonitoring should be applied to improve the care of critically ill children.

Abstract
Hypothermia is an important protective strategy against global cerebral ischemia following cardiac arrest. However, the mechanisms of hypothermia underlying the changes in different regions and connections of the brain have not been fully elucidated. This study aims to identify the metabolic nodes and connection integrity of specific brain regions in rats with global cerebral ischemia that are most affected by hypothermia treatment. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography was used to quantitatively determine glucose metabolism in different brain regions in a rat model of global cerebral ischemia established at 31–33°C. Diffusion tensor imaging was also used to reconstruct and explore the brain connections involved. The results showed that, compared with the model rats established at 37–37.5°C, the rat models of global cerebral ischemia established at 31–33°C had smaller hypometabolic regions in the thalamus and primary sensory areas and sustained no obvious thalamic injury. Hypothermia selectively preserved the integrity of the anterior forebrain mesocircuit, exhibiting protective effects on the brain during the global cerebral ischemia. The study was approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at Capital Medical University (approval No. XW-AD318-97-019) on December 15, 2019.

Abstract
Thermoregulation plays a vital role in homeostasis. Many species of animals as well as humans have evolved various physiological mechanisms for body temperature control, which are characteristically flexible and enable a fine-tuned spatial and temporal regulation of body temperature in different environmental conditions and circumstances. Human beings normally maintain a core body temperature at around 37°C, and maintenance of this relatively high temperature is critical for survival. Therefore, principles of thermoregulatory control have also important clinical implications. Infections can cause the body temperature to rise internally and several diseases can cause a dysfunction of thermoregulatory mechanisms. Moreover, the utilization of thermotherapies in treating various diseases has been known for thousands of years with a recent resurgence of interest. An increasing amount of research suggests that targeted temperature management is of paramount importance to patient outcomes in certain clinical scenarios. We provide a concise summary of the basic concepts of thermoregulation. Emphasis is given to the principles of thermoregulation in humans in basic pathological states and to targeted temperature management strategies in the clinical environment, with special attention on therapeutic hypothermia in postcardiac arrest patients. Finally, the discussion is focused on the potential offered by computational thermophysiological models for predicting thermal responses of patients in various clinical circumstances, for proposing new perspectives in the design of novel thermal therapies, and to optimize targeted temperature management strategies.

Abstract
L’arrêt cardiaque cause une hypoxie-ischémie globale, suivi de reperfusion, qui est susceptible d’engendrer des effets délétères sur la perfusion et l’oxygénation cérébrales, ainsi que le métabolisme cellulaire. Dans ce contexte, et en l’absence de thérapies spcéfiques de l’ischémie-reperfusion globale, le traitement est essentiellement de soutien, visant à optimiser la perfusion et l’oxygénation cérébrale, dans le but de prévenir ou atténuer les dégâts secondaires sur la fonction cérébrale. Dans ce contexte, le monitorage cérébral multimodal, notamment les techniques non-invasives, ont une utilité potentielle à la phase agiuë de l’arrêt cardiaque. Le but prinicpal de cette revue est de décrire les techniques actuellement dipsonibles, en nous focalisant surtout sur les outils noninvasifs (doppler transcranien, spectrospcope de proche infrarouge, électroencéphalographie, pupillométrie automatisée proche infrarouge), leur utilité clinique potentielle ainsi que leurs limitations, dans la prise en charge aiguë (optimisation de la perfusion et de l’oxygénation cérébrales) ainsi que pour la détermination du pronostic précoce après arrêt cardiaque.
