A brief preceding ischemia-reperfusion can reduce infarct size; this is known as ischemic preconditioning. During myocardial ischemia, massive norepinephrine is released from the cardiac sympathetic nerve terminals, reflecting the sympathetic nerve injury, and producing myocardial damage. However norepinephrine participates in myocardial protection during ischemia since its depletion in nerve terminals prevents ischemic preconditioning, and exogenous norepinephrine mimics ischemic preconditioning. Multiple-valued role of norepinephrine in myocardial ischemia, and ischemic preconditioning is discussed in review.

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning (RIPC) is a therapy characterized by repeated bouts of limb ischemia and reperfusion. RIPC protects against ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI), and preclinical studies suggest that this is mediated through release of endogenous opioids. We aimed to interrogate the role of endogenous opioids in RIPC-signaling in humans, using an arm model of IRI.

Methods: We recruited adults with AMI, who underwent Level-III SA testing during hospitalization. Delayed-enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging was performed to quantify AMI size (percent-infarcted myocardium).

Introduction: Arterialized venous flap, like any other flap, will undergo an ischemic reperfusion injury during its transfer process. To overcome this, ischemic preconditioning can be done to provide protection and enhanced flap survival. One of the reliable parameters of flap survival is its temperature.

The objective was to study the risk factors of venous thrombosis after ankle fracture with type 2 diabetes mellitus surgery using a tourniquet and to assess the effect of ischemic preconditioning and metformin combination therapy in preventing thrombosis. One hundred eighty patients with ankle fractures combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with lower extremity tourniquet surgery between January 2020 and December 2023 were analyzed. Based on postoperative color Doppler ultrasound of both lower extremities, the patients were divided into thrombus-positive and negative groups.
