The Relationship

Background: This study assessed the relationship between lower limb hemodynamics and metabolic parameters with walking tolerance in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). Patients and methods: Resting ankle-brachial index (ABI), baseline blood flow (BF), BF response to reactive hyperemia (BFRH), oxygen uptake (VO2), initial claudication distance (ICD) and total walking distance (TWD) were measured in 28 IC patients. Pearson and Spearman correlations were calculated. Results: ABI, baseline BF and BF response to RH did not correlate with ICD or TWD. VO2 at first ventilatory threshold and VO2peak were significantly and positively correlated with ICD (r = 0.41 and 0.54, respectively) and TWD (r = 0.65 and 0.71, respectively). Conclusions: VO2peak and VO2 at first ventilatory threshold, but not ABI, baseline BF and BFHR were associated with walking tolerance in IC patients. These results suggest that VO2 at first ventilatory threshold may be useful to evaluate walking tolerance and improvements in IC patients.

Anti Inflammatory

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenously produced molecule with anti-inflammatory and cytoprotective properties. We aimed to investigate for the first time if a novel, esterase-sensitive H2S-prodrug, BW-HS-101 with the ability to release H2S in a controllable manner, prevents gastric mucosa against acetylsalicylic acid-induced gastropathy on microscopic and molecular levels. Wistar rats were pretreated intragastrically with vehicle, BW-HS-101 (0.5–50 μmol/kg) or its analogue without the ability to release H2S, BW-iHS-101 prior to ASA administration (125 mg/kg, intragastrically). BW-HS-101 was administered alone or in combination with nitroarginine (L-NNA, 20 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) or zinc protoporphyrin IX (10 mg/kg, intraperitoneally). Gastroprotective effects of BW-HS-101 were additionally evaluated against necrotic damage induced by intragastrical administration of 75% ethanol. Gastric mucosal damage was assessed microscopically, and gastric blood flow was determined by laser flowmetry. Gastric mucosal DNA oxidation and PGE2 concentration were assessed by ELISA. Serum and/or gastric protein concentrations of IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, IL-13, VEGF, GM-CSF, IFN-γ, TNF-α, and EGF were determined by a microbeads/fluorescent-based multiplex assay. Changes in gastric mucosal iNOS, HMOX-1, SOCS3, IL1-R1, IL1-R2, TNF-R2, COX-1, and COX-2 mRNA were assessed by real-time PCR. BW-HS-101 or BW-iHS-101 applied at a dose of 50 μmol/kg protected gastric mucosa against ASA-induced gastric damage and prevented a decrease in the gastric blood flow level. H2S prodrug decreased DNA oxidation, systemic and gastric mucosal inflammation with accompanied upregulation of SOCS3, and EGF and HMOX-1 expression. Pharmacological inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) synthase but not carbon monoxide (CO)/heme oxygenase (HMOX) activity by L-NNA or ZnPP, respectively, reversed the gastroprotective effect of BW-HS-101. BW-HS-101 also protected against ethanol-induced gastric injury formation. We conclude that BW-HS-101, due to its ability to release H2S in a controllable manner, prevents gastric mucosa against drugs-induced gastropathy, inflammation and DNA oxidation, and upregulate gastric microcirculation. Gastroprotective effects of this H2S prodrug involves endogenous NO but not CO activity and could be mediated by cytoprotective and anti-inflammatory SOCS3 and EGF pathways.

Blood Volumes

Intrahepatic blood volume–pressure relationships were studied using plethysmography to measure hepatic blood volume and a hepatic venous long-circuit to control intrahepatic pressure. In cats anesthetized with pentobarbital or with ketamine–chloralose, hemorrhage (to reduce hepatic blood flow to 60% of control) caused marked reductions in hepatic blood volume and intrahepatic pressure but did not significantly change hepatic blood volume–pressure relationships. We were unable to demonstrate an active reflex venous response to hemorrhage in these preparations, although a large passive response occurred. The volume–pressure relationships in innervated livers were different from those in denervated livers: apparent venous compliance was much greater and apparent unstressed volume was zero or negative. Hepatic nerve stimulation in denervated livers caused a marked decrease in hepatic blood volume at low intrahepatic pressures but failed to alter hepatic blood volumes at high intrahepatic pressures (15 mmHg) (1 mmHg = 133.3 Pa). This resulted in large apparent compliances and apparently negative unstressed volumes, as seen in the innervated livers. Thus blood volume–pressure relationships in innervated livers may not give valid measurements of compliance and unstressed volume. A remarkable feature in all these experiments was the linearity of the relationship between hepatic blood volume and intrahepatic pressure. Exudation of fluid begins at higher intrahepatic pressures in innervated compared with denervated livers.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can be delivered in veno-arterial (VA) and veno-venous (VV) configurations based on the cannulation strategy. VA and VV ECMO are delivered primarily for haemodynamic and respiratory support in patients with severe heart and lung failure, respectively. The Fick principle describes the relationship between blood flow and oxygen consumption – key parameters in the physiological management of extracorporeal support. This review will discuss the application of the Fick principle in: (i) recirculation in VV ECMO; (ii) the quantification of oxygen delivery (DO2) in VV ECMO and (iii) the quantification of transpulmonary blood flow and systemic arterial oxygen saturation in VA ECMO.

The relationship between portal tributary blood flow (PBF) and hepatic arterial blood flow (HAF) was studied in awake, unrestrained rats with the radiolabeled microsphere technique. Six distinct patterns of response emerged. In group A (PBF+, HAF 0), ethanol, acetate, glucagon, prostacyclin, and a mixed diet increased PBF without a change in HAF; in group B (PBF+, HAF+), adenosine and histamine increased both PBF and HAF; in group C (PBF 0, HAF+), isoflurane and triiodothyronine did not change PBF but increased HAF; and in group D (PBF-, HAF+), halothane and vasopressin decreased PBF and increased HAF. Acute partial portal vein ligation decreased PBF (56%) and increased HAF (436%). Hypoxia (7.5% O2) decreased PBF (28%) and increased HAF (110%). In group E (PBF+, HAF-), acute hepatic artery ligation increased PBF (35%) and reduced HAF (74%), while in group F (PBF-, HAF-), thyroidectomy reduced PBF and HAF (36 and 47%, respectively). All blood flow responses were accompanied by the expected changes in both portal tributary and hepatic arterial vascular resistances. The data suggest that the portal and hepatic arterial vascular territories have regulatory mechanisms that allow for independent changes.

The Relationship

To perform two independent regional blood flow measurements in tissue volumes of similar dimensions, we designed a hybrid blood flow probe capable of measuring regional perfusion by both laser-Doppler velocimetry (LDV) and H2 clearance. The probe consisted of two fiber-optic light guides to conduct light between the surface of tissue of interest and a laser-Doppler blood flowmeter. Also contained within the probe were a platinum 25-microns H2-sensing electrode and a 125-microns H2-generating electrode. The probe can thus be used to measure local perfusion with H2 clearance. The H2 can either be inhaled or can be generated electrochemically at the locus of interest. Evaluation of the probe in the canine gastric mucosa indicated 1) that the relationship between mucosal flow measurements made simultaneously with H2 clearance and LDV was highly significant and linear and 2) that H2 clearance could potentially be used to calibrate the laser-Doppler blood flowmeter in absolute units. The methods of constructing the flow probes are discussed in detail.

The Relationship

We pump-perfused gastrocnemius-plantaris muscle preparations at constant pressure to study the relationship of muscle blood flow (Q) to muscle oxygen consumption (VO2), venous oxygen tension (PVO2), and venous carbon dioxide tension (PVCO2) during steady-state exercise at different rates. Tests were performed under four experimental conditions produced by altering the perfusate blood-gas status with a membrane lung. The consistency of the relationship of Q to other variables was evaluated by statistical analysis of fitted curves. Not one of the above listed variables had the same relationship with Q in all four of the experimental conditions we tested. However, we did find that a consistent relationship existed among Q, PVO2, and PVCO2 in our data. That relationship is well described by the equation (Q-23).[PVO2 - (0.5.PVCO2) - 3] = 105 (when Q is expressed in ml.100 g-1.min-1 and PVO2 and PVCO2 in mmHg). One interpretation of this result is that both PO2 and PCO2 are important variables in the control of blood flow in skeletal muscle the combined influence of which could account for nearly all of the hyperemia response to steady-state muscle exercise.

The Relationship

Veno-arterial differences of pyruvate and lactate across the myocardium in chloralose-anesthetized dogs were very variable; in any one animal they changed continually with time despite constant blood flow and arterial blood concentrations. There was a systematic tendency of v-a lactate to vary with v-a pyruvate, as expressed in the calculated "Δ excess lactate," which remained nearly constant (or, if blood flow changed, bore a constant ratio to (a-v)O2). No change in Δ excess lactate from control values occurred in nonhypoxic experiments despite marked changes in v-a differences, arterial blood composition, and coronary flow. Cardiac Δ excess lactate became positive in most animals breathing 10% O2 in N2; output of excess lactate was also observed in all those in which moderate muscular exercise was induced. This anaerobic metabolism, or change in the relationship between pyruvate and lactate exchanges, was interpreted as an indication that O2 delivery response was not adequate to meet cardiac tissue requirements during such mild stresses when judged by the standards of adequacy of the basal state.
