Objective: To analyse retrospectively the variation of plasma 15-F2t-isoprostane concentration during cardiac surgery and the relation with early myocardial dysfunction following normothemic cardiac surgery.

Methods: Thirty patients scheduled for coronary artery bypass graft surgery using normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and warm intermittent blood, crystalloid cardioplegia were enrolled. Patients were divided into two groups treated with (group II) or without (group I) positive inotropic drugs. Central venous blood was sampled at baseline, 30 minutes after global myocardial ischemia, 10, 30 and 120 minutes after aortic declamping (reperfusion). Plasma free 15-F2t-isoprostane was measured with enzyme immunoassay (EIA) using a highly specific rabbit 15-F2t-isoprostane antibody. Cardiac index (CI) was monitored intraoperatively and up to 6 hours following surgery.

Results: Plasma free 15-F2t-isoprostane increased significantly during ischemia, remained elevating at 10 minutes after reperfusion (P<0.05 vs. baseline) and began to decline at 30 minutes after reperfusion in the whole population. 15-F2t-isoprostane underwent exponential decay and returned to baseline at 30 minutes after reperfusion in group I that did not need any postoperative inotropic support. In contrast, 15-F2t-isoprostane further increased upon reperfusion and remained significantly higher than baseline at 30 minutes after reperfusion (P<0.05) in group II that needed two or more inotropes to maintain CI greater than 2.2 L x min(-1) x m(-2). Postoperative CI was significantly inversely correlated with the percentage change in plasma free 15-F2t-isoprostane concentration from 10 to 30 minutes after reperfusion (r=-0.95, P<0.01).

Conclusion: It shows a close relationship between free plasma concentrations of 15-F2t-isoprostane and early postoperative cardiac function following coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Little is known regarding the effects high-intensity training performed in hypoxia on the oxidative stress and antioxidant systems. The aim of this study was to assess the potential effect of 4 weeks of repeated sprint training in hypoxia (RSH) on the redox balance. Forty male well-trained cyclists were matched into two different interventions (RSH,  = 20) or in normoxia, RSN,  = 20) and tested twice (before (Pre-) and after (Post-) a 4-week of training) for performance (repeated sprint ability (RSA) test), oxidative stress, and antioxidant status.

Poorly controlled type II diabetes mellitus significantly enhances postoperative chemoresistance in patients with stage III colon cancer.

World J Gastroenterol

January 2025

Guangdong Cardiovascular Institute, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital, Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510080, Guangdong Province, China.

Background: Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been associated with increased risk of colon cancer (CC) and worse prognosis in patients with metastases. The effects of T2DM on postoperative chemoresistance rate (CRR) and long-term disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with stage III CC who receive curative resection remain controversial.

Aim: To investigate whether T2DM or glycemic control is associated with worse postoperative survival outcomes in stage III CC.

Sole-Solvent High-Entropy Electrolyte Realizes Wide-Temperature and High-Voltage Practical Anode-Free Sodium Pouch Cells.

Adv Mater

January 2025

School of Chemistry, Key Laboratory of Bio-Inspired Smart Interfacial Science and Technology of Ministry of Education, Beihang University, Beijing, 100191, China.

Anode-free sodium batteries (AFSBs) hold great promise for high-density energy storage. However, high-voltage AFSBs, especially those can stably cycle at a wide temperature range are challenging due to the poor electrolyte compatibility toward both the cathode and anode. Herein, high-voltage AFSBs with cycling ability in a wide temperature range (-20-60 °C) are realized for the first time via a sole-solvent high-entropy electrolyte based on the diethylene glycol dibutyl ether solvent (D2) and NaPF salt.
