Morphologic and hemodynamic changes that occur following coronary occlusion are examined. The effectiveness of hyperosmotic mannitol in lessening the extent of myocardial damage is assessed and mechanisms for its action discussed. Forty and 60 min of coronary vascular occlusion followed by 15 and 45
OBJECTIVE
Mannitol has otoprotective effects against tumor necrosis factor (TNF) α-induced auditory hair cell (HC) loss.
BACKGROUND
Mannitol has been demonstrated to possess cytoprotective effects in several organ systems. Its protective effect on postischemic hearing loss has also been shown.
Impaired metabolism interferes with the active extrusion of intracellular sodium and results in intracellular edema. In the brain and regionally in the kidney, elevation of extracellular osmolality is accompanied by a reduction of ischemic cell swelling and improvement of reflow of blood after
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to develop an experimental model of ischemia-reperfusion injury in rat skin flap and to verify the effect of mannitol and vitamin C on reducing necrosis area.
METHODS
A 6- x 3-cm groin skin flap was raised and submitted to 8 hours of ischemia by clamping
Recent studies have indicated that maximal hydration of the transplant recipient can substantially reduce the incidence of acute tubular necrosis (ATN). However, this policy requires invasive hemodynamic monitoring, prolonged mechanical ventilation, and bears the risk of overhydration. In a
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the protective effect of mannitol therapy on the vital organs and explore the underlying mechanisms in New Zealand rabbits with severe burn injury.
METHODS
Twelve New Zealand rabbits with severe burn injury (30% of TBSA) were randomized to receive fluid resuscitation with
The administration of chemotherapy to patients with tumors of the central nervous system is often blocked by the blood-brain barrier. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) is a cytokine that promotes vascular permeability in addition to its pro-inflammatory effects. However, no direct evidence
The effect of 20% mannitol on ischemic neuronal injury was examined in male Wistar rats (n = 80) that were randomly divided into forebrain and focal ischemia groups. The animals were further subdivided into control, treatment with mannitol before ischemia (1 g/kg of body weight, 12 min before
We investigated the effect of reperfusion with hyperosmotic mannitol on the infarct size in porcine hearts. The distal half of the left anterior descending coronary artery was occluded in each of 21 anesthetized pigs for 75 min and was reperfused for 2 h. During reperfusion mannitol (1075 mosmol/kg)
