Filter by:The prevalence of obesity in Mexico is 35.4%, and it is considered a risk factor for the development of diabetes, systemic arterial hypertension and dyslipidemia. Obesity due to the increased distribution and growth of adipose tissue creates a pro-inflammatory state induced by molecules secreted by the adipocytes themselves. Netrin-1 is a cell migration protein, which directs the recruitment, migration and entrapment of macrophages in different tissues, within adipose tissue the entrapment of macrophages induces the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, which increase the secretion of pro-inflammatory adipokines. It has been found in high concentration in patients with obesity, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Thymol is a phytopharmaceutical derived from oregano oil that has shown powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects through the stimulation of PPAR-gamma, adiponectin and inhibition of the NF-κB pathway mediated by the JNK pathway, pathways in which netrin-1 is involved in macrophage entrapment and recruitment.
Inflammation is an important pillar of atherogenesis in coronary disease. Studies have documented the prognostic power of measuring coronary perivascular adipose tissue attenuation (PVAT) and its good correlation as an early inflammatory biomarker in the atherogenesis process, in addition to being a predictor for cardiovascular events in the future. Colchicine, a medication with well-documented anti-inflammatory action and with an impact on reducing cardiovascular outcomes, may have an action in reducing FAI (fat attenuation index). This study aims to evaluate the effect of colchicine in reducing coronary perivascular inflammation.
In this study, our aim is to investigate the role of tranexamic acid for modulating the inflammation in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Infusion of Argipressin during hepatic resection surgery may reduce blood loss. It may also reduce transfusion requirements, and mitigate the perioperative inflammatory response compared to placebo. Subjects will be randomized to infusion of Argipressin or placebo during surgery. Blood loss, transfusion requirements, surgical data including length of stay in hsopital, inflammatory markers and markers of renal- intestinal- and cardiac injury will be assessed.
Major surgery induces a systemic inflammatory response, which can influence the post-operative morbidity, such as coagulation disorders and post-operative muscle weakness, hampering early recovery after surgery. Single administration of high dose corticosteroids is known to reduce this inflammatory response and could possibly improve the post-operative outcome. The CORTERAS study will evaluate the effect of administration of corticosteroids, as compared to no corticosteroids, on postoperative muscle weakness and quality of recovery after surgery in elderly patients.
This study is a multicenter, prospective, observational cohort study. The subjects were patients who received ECMO support. According to whether ulinastatin is used in the treatment regimen (determined by the competent doctor according to the patient's condition), the patients were divided into the ulinastatin and control groups. In the ulinastatin group, ulinastatin was used for inflammation management and organ protection early before ECMO was started. Baseline data and inflammatory markers (CRP, IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α), capillary leakage markers, routine test results, duration of ECMO use/length of hospital stay/length of ICU stay were recorded at 1, 3, and 5 days after the start of ECMO support, and patients were followed up on the 28th and 90th days.
To assess whether perioperatively elevated TnT levels, using high sensitivity troponin T (hsTnT) measurements, are associated with an increased risk of postoperative mortality as well as severe postoperative complications.
Studies have shown that excessive systemic inflammatory response and concomitant immunosuppression are the main cause of early death in patients with sepsis. Therefore, it is very important to reduce excessive inflammation and improve immunosuppression in the acute phase of sepsis. Clinical studies have shown that esketamine combined with propofol for sedation has been proven to be safe and effective for septic patients in the ICU due to its cardiovascular stability. Previous studies have demonstrated that esketamine has anti-inflammatory effects against depression and surgical stress. Our preliminary experimental studies have found that esketamine had strong anti-inflammatory effects in the acute phase of sepsis. However, it is not clear whether esketamine could reduce excessive inflammation and improve immunosuppression in septic patients primarily sedated with a continuous infusion of propofol. This intervention study is to investigate whether three consecutive days of intravenous esketamine infusions via infusion pump (0.07 mg/kg/h) could reduce excessive inflammation and improve immunosuppression in septic patients requiring mechanical ventilation in the ICU under sedation primarily with propofol.
Robotic-assisted hysterectomy is an alternative to laparoscopic surgery as part of a minimal invasive regimen. Several treatment strategies are followed to improve the overall outcome and minimize surgical stress. Glucocorticoids provide significant analgesic and antiemetic effects but its role in a fast-track, multi-modal setting is not settled when discharge is planned within 24-36 hours. This study will evaluate in a randomized trial the effect of a single dose of 24 mg dexamethasone on women undergoing robotic-assisted hysterectomy with regard to surgical stress measured by c-reactive protein as primary outcome and, further, other stress markers like white blood cells, Il-6, cortisol, and creatinine kinase. The postoperative recovery will be registered in validated charts and questionnaires for pain and analgesic use, quality of recovery, incontinence, sexual and work life. Furthermore, in a sub-analysis, transcriptional profiling will be applied to explore, which parts of the innate and cellular immune system is activated to explore the mechanisms of surgical stress response. The hypothesis is that women undergoing robotic hysterectomy would benefit from peroperative glucocorticoid treatment on important life qualities like pain, fatigue, freedom of medications and resuming work and sexual activities. Further, future adjuvant peroperative regimens may be able to target the stress response in a more appropriate way
Anticoagulants influence either coagulation, inflammation and inflammatory processes in deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Acute DVT cause an inflammatory response that may persist for a long period of time. There is a need to describe patterns of change in serum biomarker levels after acute DVT, and explore the association between trajectory biological patterns and clinical evolution in the era of various anticoagulants in the acute phase of treatment in order to be able to further avoid recurrence and late sequelae. It appears that direct oral anticoagulants and heparin alter inflammatory markers in different ways. It is therefore important to study the evolution of markers according to the different treatments used and secondarily to compare them with each other. Tinzaparin is used in the long term in patients with DVT, it is necessary to measure the evolution of inflammatory markers and then in another study to compare with the other molecules.
