Abstract

Purpose

Fat embolism syndrome is a serious complication observed after trauma, orthopedic surgery, and cardiac surgery. We investigated brain damage in relationship to temporal profiles of water channel aquaporin 4 (AQP4) and astrocyte response to fat embolism in rats.

Methods

Triolein (2 μl) was injected into the right internal carotid artery in rats. Neurological outcome (score: range, 0–5 = no deficit–dead), brain water content, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry for AQP4 and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were evaluated at 2 h (2 h group, n = 12), 24 h (24 h group, n = 12), and 72 h (72 h group, n = 12) after triolein injection. Saline was injected in the control (C) group (n = 12).

Results

Neurological deficit score (median score of 2) and brain water content (mean value, 86.2%) increased significantly at 2 h with no progressive increase over 72 h. Damaged tissues with shrunken and triangular-shaped neurons with vacuole degeneration in cytoplasm and halo formation were distributed mainly, but not exclusively, to the ipsilateral hemisphere and were associated with increase in infiltration of inflammatory cells during the time course. Increases in immunostaining for AQP4 and GFAP were observed in the peri-affected region but not in the core. Reactive astrocytes with hypertrophy and dendrite elongation were detected at 72 h in the peri-affected region.

Conclusion

The results suggest that brain damage with edema is induced very rapidly after triolein injection in association with increase in AQP4 expression and GFAP in the peri-affected region.

Blutdrucksenkung schon im Rettungswagen bei akutem Schlaganfall?

31.05.2024 Apoplex Nachrichten

Der optimale Ansatz für die Blutdruckkontrolle bei Patientinnen und Patienten mit akutem Schlaganfall ist noch nicht gefunden. Ob sich eine frühzeitige Therapie der Hypertonie noch während des Transports in die Klinik lohnt, hat jetzt eine Studie aus China untersucht.

Laut einer Studie aus den USA und Kanada scheint es bei der Reanimation von Kindern außerhalb einer Klinik keinen Unterschied für das Überleben zu machen, ob die Wiederbelebungsmaßnahmen während des Transports in die Klinik stattfinden oder vor Ort ausgeführt werden. Jedoch gibt es dabei einige Einschränkungen und eine wichtige Ausnahme.

Eine ältere Frau trinkt regelmäßig Sennesblättertee gegen ihre Verstopfung. Der scheint plötzlich gut zu wirken. Auf Durchfall und Erbrechen folgt allerdings eine Hyponatriämie. Nach deren Korrektur kommt es plötzlich zu progredienten Kognitions- und Verhaltensstörungen.

In der Notaufnahme wird die Chance, Opfer von häuslicher Gewalt zu identifizieren, von Orthopäden und Orthopädinnen offenbar zu wenig genutzt. Darauf deuten die Ergebnisse einer Fragebogenstudie an der Sahlgrenska-Universität in Schweden hin.
