Background: Large volume resuscitation with normal saline (NS) may be associated with iatrogenic hyperchloremia and renal injury. Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess clinical outcomes associated with the use of Lactated Ringer’s (LR) compared to NS as resuscitative fluid in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Methods: Single-center, retrospective analysis of patients admitted for DKA. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of iatrogenic hyperchloremia associated with fluid resuscitation using balanced crystalloid compared to NS. Results Iatrogenic hyperchloremia occurred more frequently in the NS group compared to the LR group (74.4% vs 64.2%; P = 0.05). Mean maximum serum chloride was higher in the NS group (115.7 mmol/L vs 113.7 mmol/L; P = 0.004). Incidence of hypernatremia was higher in the NS group (18.3% vs 9.3%; P = 0.02). There was no significant difference in the incidence of AKI; however, mean change in serum creatinine at 48 hours showed a significantly greater decrease in the LR group (-0.15 mg/dL vs -0.04 mg/dL; P = 0.002). No significant differences were found in intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay or total hospital length of stay. Conclusion and Relevance This study found a statistically significant reduction in the incidence of iatrogenic hyperchloremia with the use of LR compared to NS as fluid resuscitation in DKA. Serum creatinine was more improved in the LR group versus NS group at 48 hours. Preferential use of balanced crystalloid for fluid resuscitation in DKA may reduce incidence of hyperchloremia and support renal recovery in this population.

Abstract Hemorrhagic shock (HS), a major cause of trauma-related mortality, is mainly treated by crystalloid fluid administration, typically with lactated Ringer’s (LR). Despite beneficial hemodynamic effects, such as the restoration of mean arterial pressure (MAP), LR administration has major side effects, including organ damage due to edema. One strategy to avoid such effects is pre-hospitalization intravenous administration of the potent vasoconstrictor terlipressin, which can restore hemodynamic stability/homeostasis and has anti-inflammatory effects. Wistar rats were subjected to HS for 60 min, at a target MAP of 30–40 mmHg, thereafter being allocated to receive LR infusion at 3 times the volume of the blood withdrawn; at 2 times the volume, plus terlipressin (10 µg/100 g body weight); and at an equal volume, plus terlipressin (10 µg/100 g body weight). A control group comprised rats not subjected to HS and receiving no fluid resuscitation or treatment. At 15 min after fluid resuscitation/treatment, the blood previously withdrawn was reinfused. At 24 h after HS, MAP was higher among the terlipressin-treated animals. Terlipressin also improved post-HS survival and provided significant improvements in glomerular/tubular function (creatinine clearance), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin expression, fractional excretion of sodium, aquaporin 2 expression, tubular injury, macrophage infiltration, IL-6 levels, IL-18 levels, and NF-κB expression. In terlipressin-treated animals, there was also significantly higher ANG II type 1 receptor expression and normalization of AVP 1a receptor expression. Terlipressin could be a viable therapy for HS-induced acute kidney injury, likely attenuating such injury by modulating the inflammatory response via the AVP 1a receptor.

<b><i>Background:</i></b> Microcirculatory alterations have been observed at the early phase of sepsis, although macrocirculation seems preserved. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of crystalloid fluid therapy on mesenteric microcirculation, assessed by using the confocal laser endomicroscope Cellvizio®, in an endotoxic porcine model. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> It is a prospective endotoxic shock (lipopolysaccharide infusion) experimental trial. Piglets were divided into 3 groups: 6 in the sham group (no LPS injection, no fluid), 9 in the control group (LPS infusion, no fluid), and 6 in the crystalloids group (LPS infusion and fluid resuscitation with crystalloids). Fluid resuscitation consisted in a fluid bolus of 20 mL/kg 0.9% saline over 30 min followed by a 10 mL/kg/h fluid rate over 4 h. Mesenteric microcirculation was assessed using a confocal laser endomicroscope (Cellvizio®). Blood flow within capillaries was visually assessed according to the point of care microcirculation (POEM) score. <b><i>Results:</i></b> At baseline, the 3 groups were similar regarding hemodynamic, biological, and microcirculatory parameters. At T360, the POEM score significantly decreased in the control and crystalloids groups, whereas it remained unchanged in the sham group (respectively, 1.62 ± 1.06, 1.2 ± 0.45, and 5.0 ± 0, <i>p</i> = 0.011). There was no significant difference in cardiac output at T360 between the sham and crystalloids groups (3.1 ± 0.8 vs. 2.3 ± 0.6, <i>p</i> = 0.132) or between the control and crystalloids groups (2.0 ± 0.6 vs. 2.3 ± 0.6, <i>p</i> = 0.90). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> There was no significant improvement of microcirculatory alterations after crystalloids resuscitation despite improvement in macrocirculatory parameters in early experimental sepsis.

Zitterbewegungen des Fusses bei Dorsalflexion (shaking movements of the foot upon dorsal flexion) were observed independently from each other and described in the same issue of a German peer reviewed journal by Carl Westphal (1833–1890) at the Charité in Berlin and by Wilhelm Erb (1840–1921) in Heidelberg. While Westphal used the term Fussphaenomen, Erb is credited with coining the term clonus for the phenomenon. Both scientists are immortalized by various eponyms acknowledging their respective contributions to science. Little is known however about Julius Sander (1840–1909), in those days resident at Charité, who noticed the phenomenon and presented it to his superiors, Wilhelm Griesinger (1817 −1868) and Westphal. In addition to such observations, Sander made original contributions in resuscitation physiology while working with Hugo Kronecker (1839–1914). With Kronecker, Sander published observations on life saving transfusions with inorganic salt solutions in dogs “ Bemerkung über lebensrettende Transfusion mit anorganischer Salzlösung bei Hunden” a very early work on isovolemic fluid resuscitation. The purpose of this communication is to highlight Sander's scientific contributions and to shed some light on his life, of which a German Lexicon stated that after 1870 no information on him can be ascertained anymore.
