Avulsion Injury

This study was undertaken to characterize the relative degrees of arterial and venous trauma after graded avulsion injuries. Rat femoral arteries and veins were subjected to reproducible avulsion injuries using forces of between 60 and 220 g. Thrombotic occlusion occurred at lower avulsion forces in veins than in arteries. Histologic and scanning electron microscopic analysis indicated increased endothelial disruption and exposed elastic lamina with increasing avulsion force in both vessels, but more prominently in arteries. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) mRNA expression was evident at 3 and 6 hours after avulsion injury in veins, but only with higher avulsion force injuries in arteries. ICAM-1 mRNA expression was not found in either vessel before or after this 3 to 6 hour post-injury interval. These results indicate that the amount of avulsion force to which traumatized extremity vessels are subjected has a direct effect on the degree of intimal injury and subsequent thrombosis.

Spontaneous Labour

To evaluate the association between intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in the chorio-decidua and preterm labour and delivery, ICAM-1 mRNA abundance was assessed by northern analysis, and protein levels by ELISA, in samples of this tissue after term and preterm delivery. The median ICAM-1 mRNA expression following preterm delivery (PTD) was 4.8 and 3.8 times (P<0.05), respectively, those following elective Caesarean section prior to labour at term (CST) and following vaginal delivery after spontaneous labour at term (SLT). The concentration of ICAM-1 protein in the PTD samples was 2.2 and 3.0 times (P<0.05) those in CST and SLT samples, respectively. The differences between the term groups were not significant. The results were substantially the same when a preterm spontaneous labour (PTL) subgroup, exclusive of deliveries complicated by pre-eclampsia or intrauterine growth restriction, was compared with the term groups. Choriodecidual ICAM-1 mRNA expression, but not ICAM-1 protein concentration, significantly correlated to the degree of leukocyte infiltration of the PTD gestational membranes. Neither correlated significantly to clinical indications of intrauterine or neonatal infection. These findings indicate that ICAM-1 is expressed by the human choriodecidua and that this expression is elevated with preterm labour and delivery, particularly with increased leukocyte infiltration.
