After restoration of spontaneous circulation, post-cardiac arrest syndrome is the predominant disorder in survivors. Besides the post-arrest brain injury, the post-resuscitation myocardial stunning, and the systemic ischemia/reperfusion response, this syndrome is characterized by adrenal insufficiency, a disorder that often remains undiagnosed. The pathophysiology of adrenal insufficiency has not been elucidated. We performed a comprehensive search of three medical databases in order to describe the major pathophysiological disturbances which are responsible for the occurrence of the disorder. Based on the available evidence, this article will help physicians to better evaluate and understand the hidden yet deadly post-cardiac arrest adrenal insufficiency.展开更多

Post- cardiac arrest (CA) syndrome (PCAS) is the primary reason for the high mortality rate after successful restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Intravenous administration of Shenfu Injection (参附注射液, SFI) may attenuate post-CA myocardial dysfunction and cerebral injury, inhibit systemic ischemiaJreperfusion responses, and treat underlying diseases. In this article, we reviewed the therapeutic effects of SFI in PCAS. SFI might be useful in the treatment of PCAS, incorporating the multi-link and muff-target advantages of Chinese medicine into PCAS management. Further experimental and clinical research to verify the therapeutic effects of SFI in PCAS is required.展开更多

In this study, we induced asphyxial CA in adult male Sprague-Daley rats, maintained their body temperature at 37 ± 0.5°C, and then observed the survival rate during the post-resuscitation phase. We examined neuronal damage in the hippocampus using cresyl violet(CV) and Fluore-Jade B(F-J B) staining, and pro-inflammatory response using ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1(Iba-1), glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α) immunohistochemistry in the hippocampus after asphyxial CA in rats under normothermia. Our results show that the survival rate decreased gradually post-CA(about 63% at 6 hours, 37% at 1 day, and 8% at 2 days post-CA). Rats were sacrificed at these points in time post-CA, and no neuronal damage was found in the hippocampus until 1 day post-CA. However, some neurons in the stratum pyramidale of the CA region in the hippocampus were dead 2 days post-CA. Iba-1 immunoreactive microglia in the CA1 region did not change until 1 day postCA, and they were activated(enlarged cell bodies with short and thicken processes) in all layers 2 days postCA. Meanwhile, GFAP-immunoreactive astrocytes did not change significantly until 2 days post-CA. TNF-α immunoreactivity decreased significantly in neurons of the stratum pyramidale in the CA1 region 6 hours post-CA, decreased gradually until 1 day post-CA, and increased significantly again 2 days post-CA. These findings suggest that low survival rate of normothermic rats in the early period of asphyxia-induced CA is related to increased TNF-α immunoreactivity, but not to neuronal damage in the hippocampal CA1 region.展开更多
