Technical Note: Application of Luminol and Leucomalachite Green Tests to Wischnewsky Spots After Formalin Fixation.

Am J Forensic Med Pathol

January 2025

From the Section of Legal Medicine, Department of Social Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Miyazaki, Miyazaki, Japan.

Wischnewsky spots are disseminated, dark lesions in gastric mucosa reflecting hemorrhage associated with fatal hypothermia, and are a phenomenon well known to forensic pathologists. We applied luminol and leucomalachite green tests to formalin-fixed gastric mucosa with Wischnewsky spots in autopsy cases of hypothermia. Both luminol and leucomalachite green tests showed positive reactions.

Background: As hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) is being more frequently induced in patients undergoing aortic arch surgery, its safety at different degrees has become a crucial area of study. The aim of this study was to assess the surgical outcomes of mild hypothermic circulatory arrest (MI-HCA) during aortic arch surgery.

Methods: Acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) patients who underwent total arch replacement (TAR) and frozen elephant trunk (FET) surgery between January 2014 and December 2023 were enrolled in this study.

Impact of hyper- and hypothermia on cellular and whole-body physiology.

J Intensive Care

January 2025

Department of Anesthesiology, Critical Care, and Surgery, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, NC, USA.

The incidence of heat-related illnesses and heatstroke continues to rise amidst global warming. Hyperthermia triggers inflammation, coagulation, and progressive multiorgan dysfunction, and, at levels above 40 °C, can even lead to cell death. Blood cells, particularly granulocytes and platelets, are highly sensitive to heat, which promotes proinflammatory and procoagulant changes.

Background: Vasoactive inotrope score, renal score, fibrosis-5 index, and lactate-albumin ratio have not been investigated before in determining multiple organ dysfunctions accompanying infants with hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). The aim of this study was to determine whether multiple organ dysfunctions that may accompany HIE in infants are correlated with vasoactive inotrope score (VIS), renal score (RS), fibrosis-5 index (FIB-5), and lactate-albumin ratio (LAR), and whether these parameters can predict morbidity and mortality.

Methods: This is a retrospective study, and 106 newborns diagnosed with HIE and treated with hypothermia were included in the study.

Article Synopsis
  • Hibernating animals can significantly lower their body temperature without damaging their organs, potentially due to active hypometabolism.
  • Researchers studied the phosphorylation of Akt to see if metabolism decreases during artificial hypothermia in hamsters.
  • They found that while hypothermia through adenosine A1 receptor activation decreased Akt phosphorylation significantly, anesthesia-induced hypothermia showed only partial reduction without organ damage, indicating both methods allow for regulated metabolic reduction.
