Blood Flow Reduction

We studied the role of endogenous nitric oxide (NO) in the regulation of gastrointestinal (GI) circulation in 11 chronically instrumented and unanesthetized late-gestation fetal sheep. Systemic and GI blood flows were measured by the radiolabeled microsphere technique. Mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate, blood flows, oxygen delivery, and vascular resistance were determined before and after infusion of the specific NO synthase inhibitor, N omega-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA), to cumulative doses of 10 and 25 mg/kg. At both L-NNA doses, MAP increased, and combined ventricular output and heart rate decreased. GI blood flow and oxygen delivery decreased and vascular resistance increased for the stomach, all segments of the small intestine, and proximal colon and cecum but were unchanged in the middle and distal colon and rectum. Because blood flow reduction in the small intestine was pronounced (from 176 to 107 ml.min-1.100 g-1, P < 0.001) and blood flow in the large intestine was unchanged, distribution of intestinal blood flow became more uniform. Overall, blood flow reduction was proportionally greater in GI circulation than in the remainder of fetal circulation. In three additional animals we established that L-NNA reduced blood flow to the mucosal-submucosal layer (P < 0.02) but not to the muscularis serosa of the small intestine. In the same animals, L-arginine (250 mg/kg) restored systemic hemodynamics and partially restored small intestinal blood flow. Our results suggest that NO is an important differential regulator of vascular tone in the developing GI circulation.

Increased endothelin-1 (ET-1) and reduced endothelial nitric oxide phosphorylation (peNOS) are hypothesized to reduce insulin-stimulated blood flow in type 2 diabetes (T2D), but studies examining these links in humans are limited. We sought to assess basal and insulin-stimulated endothelial signaling proteins (ET-1 and peNOS) in skeletal muscle from T2D patients. Ten obese T2D [glucose disposal rate (GDR): 6.6 ± 1.6 mg·kg lean body mass (LBM)−1·min−1] and 11 lean insulin-sensitive subjects (Lean GDR: 12.9 ± 1.2 mg·kg LBM−1·min−1) underwent a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamp with vastus lateralis biopsies taken before and 60 min into the clamp. Basal biopsies were also taken in 11 medication-naïve, obese, non-T2D subjects. ET-1, peNOS (Ser1177), and eNOS protein and mRNA were measured from skeletal muscle samples containing native microvessels. Femoral artery blood flow was assessed by duplex Doppler ultrasound. Insulin-stimulated blood flow was reduced in obese T2D (Lean: +50.7 ± 6.5% baseline, T2D: +20.8 ± 5.2% baseline, P < 0.05). peNOS/eNOS content was higher in Lean under basal conditions and, although not increased by insulin, remained higher in Lean during the insulin clamp than in obese T2D ( P < 0.05). ET-1 mRNA and peptide were 2.25 ± 0.50- and 1.52 ± 0.11-fold higher in obese T2D compared with Lean at baseline, and ET-1 peptide remained 2.02 ± 1.9-fold elevated in obese T2D after insulin infusion ( P < 0.05) but did not increase with insulin in either group ( P > 0.05). Obese non-T2D subjects tended to also display elevated basal ET-1 ( P = 0.06). In summary, higher basal skeletal muscle expression of ET-1 and reduced peNOS/eNOS may contribute to a reduced insulin-stimulated leg blood flow response in obese T2D patients. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Although impairments in endothelial signaling are hypothesized to reduce insulin-stimulated blood flow in type 2 diabetes (T2D), human studies examining these links are limited. We provide the first measures of nitric oxide synthase and endothelin-1 expression from skeletal muscle tissue containing native microvessels in individuals with and without T2D before and during insulin stimulation. Higher basal skeletal muscle expression of endothelin-1 and reduced endothelial nitric oxide phosphorylation (peNOS)/eNOS may contribute to reduced insulin-stimulated blood flow in obese T2D patients.

Sep Monitoring

Somatosensory evoked potential (SEP) monitoring is a standard tool during clipping of aneurysms of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), and the parameter used to detect a state of cortical ischemia is amplitude. We think that the sensitivity of SEP can however be improved by using other parameters. Our study moves in this direction via SEP morphology. In this pilot preliminary study, involving a small sample without postoperative neurological deficit, we aimed at investigating the value of SEP morphology (in the 15- to 35-ms time frame), in comparison with SEP amplitude (N20 peak-to-peak), as a measure of sensitivity to blood flow reduction. The changes in the SEP morphology of 16 patients undergoing clipping of an unruptured MCA aneurysm was studied. We applied the Morph-Fréchet index for each recorded SEP (at 30-second intervals), quantifying the pattern shape change with regard to the average SEP recorded after dura opening (baseline). We also compared 3 measurements of the SEP morphology, without and with GARCH-derived filter. Filtered Morph-Fréchet never exceeded the individual’s “normality” range in baseline but did so in 81% of the risk phase on average across the 16 subjects, which is more than that for amplitude (36%, P = .002). This pilot study indicates that a measurement derived from the networking nature of the brain was sensitive to blood flow reduction. The SEP morphology approach promises to improve SEP monitoring sensitivity during clipping of unruptured MCA aneurysms. New and Noteworthy. The higher sensitivity to blood flow reduction of SEP morphology than amplitude promises to improve the effectiveness of intraoperative monitoring during MCA aneurysm clipping procedures.
