Filter by:The effect of parenteral glutamine on the biomarkers of myocardial injury and inflammation in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with and without cardiopulmonary bypass (DCP) will be analyzed. Randomized controlled clinical trial, from October 2018 to February 2022. 124 patients: 14 patients with DCP and 14 patients without DCP, both + glutamine (L-alanyl-L-glutamine dipeptide, at a dose of 0.4 g / kg) 6 hours before surgery and 14 patients with PCD and 14 patients without PCD + placebo (saline) 6 hours before surgery. Blood samples will be taken to measure the level of TROP-I, CPK-MB, HSP-70, TNFa, IL6, IL10 and PCR 1 hour before the administration of Glutamine / Placebo, 1 hour before surgery, then at 1 , 12 and 24 hours after surgery.
New therapies for cancer increased patient survival, but led to the recognition of adverse effects associated with cancer treatment, such as the use of chemotherapy. Cardiotoxicity is the most significant adverse effect, which affect the functional capacity and quality of life and is associated with high morbidity and mortality, regardless of the oncological prognosis. One of the manifestations of cardiotoxicity is ventricular dysfunction that can lead to heart failure. Neuro humoral hyperactivation with increased sympathetic nerve activity is a typical manifestation of heart failure and is associated with worse prognosis. Studies have shown that physical training significantly reduces sympathetic nerve activity in addition to improving muscle blood flow, reversing effects on skeletal muscle and improving quality of life. The hypothesis is that physical training may reduce sympathetic nerve activity and vasoconstrictor status in patients with heart failure caused by anthracyclines, as well as improving baroreflex and chemoreflex sensibility, mechanoreflex and metaborreflex control and skeletal myopathy.
