Objectives: Poor medullary oxygenation is implicated in the evolution of acute kidney injury. The authors sought to determine if increasing systemic flow and mean arterial pressure could improve urine oxygen tension (PuO) measured in the bladder, a surrogate of kidney medullary oxygenation, in patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery.
Design: Randomized crossover study.
Setting: University-affiliated hospital.
Participants: Twenty adult patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with expected cross-clamp time of >60 minutes and estimated glomerular filtration rate of >30 mL/min/1.73m.
Interventions: Sequential 20-minute periods of 2 interventions: Intervention H ("High") or Intervention N ("Normal"). The order of interventions was determined by randomization. Intervention H: targeted CPB flow 3.0 L/min/m and mean arterial pressure (MAP) 80 mmHg. Intervention N: targeted CPB flow 2.4 L/min/m and MAP 65 mmHg.
Measurements And Main Results: PuO was measured by an oxygen sensor introduced into the bladder via a urinary catheter. Clear separation was achieved in CPB flow and MAP between intervention periods (p < 0.001 for group-time interaction). PuO during Intervention H was higher than during Intervention N (p < 0.001 for group-time interaction). After 17 minutes, PuO was statistically higher in Intervention H at each time point. There were no differences in markers of hemolysis between interventions.
Conclusions: PuO was higher when systemic flow and MAP were increased during CPB. These findings suggest that PuO is responsive to changes in hemodynamics and that higher flow and pressure may improve medullary oxygenation.

Blood pressure (BP) is one of the vital physiological parameters, and its measurement is done routinely for almost all patients who visit hospitals. Cuffless BP measurement has been of great research interest over the last few years. In this paper, we aim to establish a method for cuffless measurement of BP using ultrasound.

Background: Hypotension during anesthesia for surgery for hip fracture is common and associated with myocardial injury, stroke, acute kidney injury, and delirium. We hypothesized that maintaining intraoperative blood pressure close to patients' preoperative values would reduce these complications compared to usual care.
Methods: A pilot feasibility patient- and assessor-blinded parallel group randomized controlled trial.

Background: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by elevated pulmonary artery pressure and vascular resistance, leading to systemic venous hypertension and potential right heart failure. These elevated pressures can extend to ocular veins, resulting in complications such as central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). This case report highlights a rare instance of CRVO combined with cilioretinal artery occlusion (CilRAO), an uncommon ocular manifestation associated with PAH.

People with symptomatic lower extremity peripheral artery disease (PAD) suffer from severe leg pain, walking impairment, and reduced quality of life, but few effective treatments are available. Emerging evidence suggests that regular heat therapy (HT) may improve cardiovascular and physical function in patients with PAD. However, the lack of accessible, practical modalities for unsupervised HT, especially for elderly individuals, has hindered clinical implementation.

Chicken essence (CE) is known for its antihypertensive properties. However, few studies have investigated the effects of CE in prehypertensive individuals. Here, we conducted a randomized crossover clinical trial on prehypertensive offspring of hypertensive parents to evaluate the effects of preworkout CE consumption (CEC) on post-exercise hypotension (PEH) and cardiac autonomic and vascular responses.
