Filter by:Our study aimed at assessing the changes of portal vein pressure, portal vein flow and hepatic arterial flow (HAF) in liver remnants ≤ 30% of the standard liver volume by reducing portal vein overflow via ligation of the splenic artery.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of this bubble and surface oxygenation and to determine the optimal timing of surface oxygenation (continuous versus intermittent) as alternative for membrane-oxygenated kidneys, originating from DCD donors, during HMP on early graft function in clinical practice.
The objective of the present study is to determine whether intermittent hypoxia protects against ischemia-reperfusion injury in young and older healthy individuals. The investigators hypothesize that intermittent hypoxia will attenuate the reduction in flow-mediated dilation following ischemia-reperfusion injury.
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass is a common surgical therapy for patients suffering from coronary artery diseases. The heart is subjected to a long period of ischemia due to the occlusion of the aorta. The heavy burden of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) thus induces cardiomyocyte death, which can paradoxically reduce the beneficial effect of CABG. Preconditioning by moderate hypoxia or hyperoxia serves as an effective drug-free method to increase the organism's resistance to negative effects, including IRI.
Ischemia and reperfusion injury during free flap reconstructive surgery creates a state of increased oxidative stress that can adversely affect the flap outcomes. Ascorbic acid (AA) had been proven to have beneficial effect on end-organ protection and flap survival from ischemia-reperfusion injury via its antioxidant properties. The investigators hypothesise that perioperative parenteral ascorbic acid treatment may reduce oxidative stress among participants undergoing free flap reconstructive surgery along with reduction in inflammatory markers, improved rate of flap viability and wound healing at both donor and recipient sites.
Ischemic stroke accounts for 80% of all strokes and there is a lack of effective treatment options.Mechanical thrombectomy can significantly improve the vascular recanalization rate and reduce the disability rate of stroke, but the problem of reperfusion injury caused by vascular recanalization is more prominent than before. The most common manifestation of reperfusion injury is postoperative hemorrhage transformation in the infarct area, which is caused by the inability of blood vessels to tolerate normal perfusion pressure after endothelial cell injury.Therefore, in addition to using necessary strategies to reduce the risk of bleeding before and during surgery, maintaining an appropriate and individualized perfusion pressure after surgery is also an important strategy to prevent and treat postoperative bleeding. Lead a multicenter, randomized, controlled study looking at Individuation lowers blood pressure.( Drop systolic blood pressure to 90-110mmHg,Blood pressure not lower than 90/60 mm Hg,The reduced blood pressure was maintained for 48 hours). Influence of the incidence of hemorrhage transformation caused by reperfusion injury after mechanical thrombectomy and prognosis (modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score and proportion of patients with mRS≤2) at 48hours, 14 and 90 days after surgery.Thus, provide clinical evidence for blood pressure management strategy after mechanical thrombectomy.
Endovascular stroke treatment with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has become the standard therapy for intracranial large vessel occlusion (LVO). The most serious MT-related complication is secondary intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) occurring in 20-25%. Post- recanalization hyperperfusion might be an important risk factor/mechanism of MT-related ICH. In pilot studies, bedside transcranial Duplex sonography (TCD) was identified as a promising screening tool for cerebral hyperperfusion predicting ICH - the hallmark feature of reperfusion injury. There is an unmet need to identify risk factors for ICH after MT as it relates to poor prognosis, no proven treatment is available, and it delays/prohibits usage of anticoagulants/-thrombotics necessary for preventing recurrent stroke. Main objectives: To explore the range and clinical impact of hemodynamic changes after MT as detected on bedside TCD. To assess whether patients with increased blood flow velocity in the recanalized middle cerebral artery (MCA) are at a higher risk to develop ICH / vasogenic brain edema (reperfusion injury) after MT. To investigate if the underlying mechanism is cerebral hyperperfusion (confirmed by perfusion MRI). To additionally study the role of blood biomarkers of blood-brain-barrier / endothelial dysfunction and neuroaxonal damage on reperfusion injury and short-term prognosis. Approach / methods: Prospective, longitudinal Austrian multicentre study conducted at three high-volume stroke centers (Graz, Innsbruck, Salzburg). The investigators will recruit consecutive stroke patients with anterior circulation L VO treated by MT. Immediately after MT, experienced sonographers will perform bedside TCD to determine MCA blood flow status, which will be repeated after 24-48h and on day 7. On day one after MT, brain MRI with perfusion serves to assess infarct size, secondary ICH, (vasogenic) brain edema and perfusion status. MRI will be centrally analyzed in the neuroimaging lab of Graz, blinded to clinical, laboratory and sonographic information. Blood samples for the analysis of biomarkers of endothelial (blood-brain barrier) dysfunction and neuroaxonal damage (neurofilament light) will be taken on day one and at three months post-MT. Neurological outcome will be rated according to the modified Rankin Scale at three months post-stroke.
A first-in-human single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, with primary objective to evaluate safety and tolerability of ex-vivo kidney allograft treatment with TUM012 to reduce ischemia-reperfusion injury in de novo kidney transplant recipients.
The aim of this study is to characterize the protective pattern of intermittent hypoxia, angina pectoris and remote ischemic conditioning, in reperfusion injury by determining and monitoring the plasma immunometabolic parameters of patients with STEMI. This could contribute to better understanding of this phenotypic pattern with translation into clinical practice.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of dapagliflozin or placebo on acetylcholine (Ach)- or nitroglycerin (GTN)-induced vasodilation of the forearm resistance vasculature, as determined by FBF measurement before and 10 minutes after 20 minutes of forearm ischemia.
