Introduction: Cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) has been established as an effective treatment for peritoneal cancer (PC). However, this kind of combination therapy is associated with a high lactate level. Moreover, studies have suggested that the rate of complications early after surgery directly increased with elevated lactate levels.

Background: This meta-analysis aimed to assess the efficacy of high-dose glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) therapy on clinical outcomes in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients receiving reperfusion therapy.

Methods: We searched the PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases from inception to April 26, 2022, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared high-dose GIK and placebos in ACS patients receiving reperfusion therapy. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs).

Objectives: Whether the glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) should be used as an adjuvant therapy for ischaemic myocardial disease remains controversial nowadays reperfusion era. This meta-analysis aimed to assess the effects of preinitiated GIK for patients undergoing planned percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Modified Glucose-insulin-potassium Therapy for Hemorrhage-induced Traumatic Cardiac Arrest in Rabbits.

Objective: Resuscitation with whole blood is known to be better than that with saline in attaining the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and improving the short-term survival rate for hemorrhage-induced traumatic cardiac arrest (HiTCA). However, the resuscitation with whole blood alone fails to address the pathophysiological abnormalities, including hyperglycemia, hyperkalemia and coagulopathy, after HiTCA. The present study aimed to determine whether the modified glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) therapy can ameliorate the above-mentioned pathophysiological abnormalities, enhance the ROSC, improve the function of key organs, and reduce the mortality after HiTCA.

This viewpoint takes the position that the management of takotsubo syndrome (TTS) should not wait the elucidation of the pathophysiology of this mysterious malady but should move along the direction currently implemented for acute coronary syndromes (ACS). Accordingly, and since there is a current rekindled interest in the salutary effect of glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) for the management of acute myocardial infarction, and in general of the broad domain of ACS, it is the opinion of this author that it is an opportune time for the same therapeutic principles, including GIK, applied for the broad domain of suspected ACS (in view of the prospective phase 3 IMMEDIATE-2 trial), to be considered for TTS.
