Introduction: Na experimentálnu verifikáciu vitality žalúdočného tubulu pred ezofagektómiou je nevyhnutná existencia jednoduchého modelu. Ischémia je hlavná príčina dehiscencie ezofagogastrickej anastomózy a následného leaku anastomózy. Ischemická príprava žalúdočného tubulu pred ezofagektómiou je potencionálna možnosť ako zamedziť rozvoju nežiaducich komplikácií. Avšak technika ako aj optimálne načasovanie ischemizácie ostávajú nejasné. Metody: Samce potkanov plemena Sprague-Dawley (n=24) boli náhodne rozdelené do štyroch skupín: ischemická skupina s odberom vzoriek po 1 hodine od ischémie (I1H), ischemická skupina s odberom vzoriek 1 deň od ischémie (I1D), ischemická skupina s odberom vzoriek 7 dní od ischémie (I7D) a kontrolná skupina (C). Ischémia bola navodená ligáciou a. gastrica sinistra a aa. gastricae breves. Vzorky boli histologicky a makroskopicky verifikované a stanovený bol počet a percentuálne zastúpenie jednotlivých imunokompetentných buniek. Výsledky: V skupine I1H bola pozorovaná ischemická denudácia s mukozálnymi eróziami a celkový počet eozinofilov bol signifikantne vyšší (p<0.05) v tejto skupine v porovnaní so skupinami I1D a I7D. V skupine I1D bola pozorovaná redukcia zápalu a parciálna regenerácia žalúdočnej mukózy. V skupine I7D bola pozorovaná takmer kompletná architektonická regenerácia žalúdočného epitelu a počet polymorfonukleárov bol signifikantne nižší (p<0,05) ako v skupine I1D. Záver: Ischemické poškodenie ligáciou žalúdočných tepien bolo predominantne pozorované v skupinách I1H a I1D avšak nie v skupine I7D. Táto práca prezentuje jednoduchú metódu verifikácie ischemických zmien žalúdočného tubulu.
Introduction: A reproducible and simple model is essential for verifying gastric conduit vitality before esophagectomy. Ischemia is a major cause of esophagogastric anastomotic dehiscence and leakage. Ischemic conditioning of the stomach prior to esophageal surgery has been shown to lower the incidence of postoperative complications, including anastomotic leakage. However, the optimal timing and technique of ischemization remain uncertain. Methods: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=24) were randomly divided into four groups: ischemic group – samples collected 1 hour after ischemia (I1H), ischemic group – samples collected 1 day after ischemia (I1D), ischemic group – samples collected 7 days after ischemia (I7D), and control group (C). Ischemia was induced by ligation of the left gastric (LGA) and short gastric arteries (SGA). The samples were verified using histological and macroscopic analysis, and the number and percentage of immunocompetent cells were determined. Results: One hour after ischemization (I1H), ischemic denudation with mucosal erosion was observed, and the total number of eosinophils was significantly higher (p<0.05) in the I1H group compared to the I1D and I7D groups. One day after ischemia (I1D), there was a reduction in the inflammatory response with partial regeneration of gastric mucosa. In the I7D group, nearly complete architectural regeneration of mucosal epithelium was documented. The total count of polymorphonuclears was significantly lower (p<0.05) compared to the I1D group. Conclusion: Ischemic mucosal injury after LGA and SGA ligation was observed dominantly in the I1H and I1D groups, but not in I7D group. In conclusion, this study presents a simple method for verifying gastric ischemic changes.

Autoimmune thyroiditis (AIT) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) are the most common endocrinological diseases worldwide. Relation between these diseases explains several hypotheses. One of them is influence of some adipocytokines. This study evaluated association between three adipocytokines (adiponectin, resistin and visfatin) and thyroid and glycid status in patients with DM2 and AIT compared to the control group (CG). The group consisted of four subgroups: patients with DM2 without thyreopathies, patients with AIT on substitution therapy without diabetes and prediabetes, patients with DM2 and AIT on substitution therapy and healthy subjects as the CG. We investigated parameters of thyroid and glucose metabolism and serum levels of three adipocytokines. The mean level of resistin in the group of patients with diabetes and thyroiditis was significantly higher than in patients with thyroiditis without diabetes and than in the CG. We found a weak negative correlation between visfatin and fasting glucose levels in patients with thyroiditis without diabetes. We detected a weak negative correlation between resistin and glycated haemoglobin and a weak negative correlation between visfatin and thyroid gland volume in patients with diabetes without thyroiditis. In the CG we determined a weak positive correlation between visfatin and free thyroxin. Our results are consistent with several studies, which confirmed association between AIT and adipocytokines.

Circulating lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP), a metabolic endotoxemia marker, was identified as an independent predictor of atherosclerosis. Although increases in carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) were repeatedly reported in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), neither the role of OSA in metabolic endotoxemia nor of LBP in early atherosclerosis were explored in patients with OSA. At a tertiary university hospital we investigated the relationships between OSA, LBP and CIMT in 117 men who underwent full polysomnography and CIMT assessment by B-mode ultrasound. Circulating LBP concentrations and average CIMT increased from patients without OSA to those with mild-moderate and severe OSA (from 32.1+/-10.3 to 32.3+/-10.9 to 38.1+/-10.3 microg.ml(-1), p=0.015; from 0.52+/-0.09 to 0.58+/-0.06 to 0.62+/-0.10 mm, p=0.004, respectively). Oxygen desaturation index (ODI) was a predictor of serum LBP levels independent of age, waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), smoking, hypertension, HDL cholesterol, triglycerides and fasting glucose [p (ANOVA)=0.002, r(2)=0.154], with no independent effect of the ODI*WHR interaction term on LBP. Furthermore, serum LBP predicted CIMT independently of known risk factors of atherosclerosis including obesity (p<0.001, r(2)=0.321). Our results suggest that OSA severity contributes to metabolic endotoxemia in patients with OSA independently of obesity, and that LBP might represent a contributing factor promoting early atherosclerosis in such patients.

The aim of study was to review the status of arterial pH, pO(2) and pCO(2) under general anesthesias in dependence on the light-dark (LD) cycle in spontaneously breathing rats. The experiments were performed using three- to four-month-old pentobarbital(P)-, ketamine/xylazine(K/X)- and zoletil(Z)-anesthetized female Wistar rats after a four-week adaptation to an LD cycle (12 h light:12 h dark). The animals were divided into three experimental groups according to the anesthetic agent used: P (light n=11; dark n=8); K/X (light n=13; dark n=11); and Z (light n=18; dark n=26). pH and blood gases from arterial blood were analyzed. In P anesthesia, LD differences in pH, pO(2), and pCO(2) were eliminated. In K/X anesthesia, parameters showed significant LD differences. In Z anesthesia, LD differences were detected for pH and pO(2) only. Acidosis, hypoxia, and hypercapnia have been reported for all types of anesthesia during the light period. In the dark period, except for P anesthesia, the environment was more stable and values fluctuated within normal ranges. From a chronobiological perspective, P anesthesia was not the most appropriate type of anesthesia in these rat experiments. It eliminated LD differences, and also produced a more acidic environment and more pronounced hypercapnia than K/X and Z anesthesias.

Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) has been associated with disturbances in energy metabolism and insulin resistance, nevertheless, the links between OSA severity, resting energy expenditure (REE) and insulin resistance (homeostasis model assessment, HOMA-IR) remained unexplored. Therefore, we investigated the effects of OSA severity on REE, and relationships between REE and HOMA-IR in patients with OSA. Forty men [mean (SD) age 49.4 (11.4) years] underwent overnight polysomnography; REE was assessed using indirect calorimetry. REE adjusted for fat-free mass (FFM) was higher in patients with moderate-to severe OSA [n=24; body mass index (BMI) 31.1 (2.7) kg.m(-2); apnoea-hypopnoea index (AHI)>/=15 episodes.h(-1)] compared to participants with no clinically significant OSA (n=16; BMI 30.3 (2.2) kg.m(-2); AHI<15 episodes.h(-1)) [median (interquartile range) 30.4 (26.1-31.3) versus 25.8 (24.6-27.3) kcal.kg(-1).24 h(-1), p=0.005)]. AHI and oxygen desaturation index (ODI) were directly related to REE/FFM (p=0.001; p<0.001, respectively) and to HOMA-IR (p<0.001 for both). In stepwise multiple linear models, REE/FFM was independently predicted by ODI (p<0.001) and age (p=0.028) (R(2)=0.346); HOMA-IR was independently predicted by ODI only (p<0.001, R(2)=0.457). In conclusion, male patients with moderate-to severe OSA have increased REE paralleled by impaired insulin sensitivity. Severity of nocturnal intermittent hypoxia reflected by ODI is an independent predictor of REE/FFM and HOMA-IR.

BACKGROUND: Obesity and overweight are major contributors to the global burden of chronic diseases and disability in both majority and minority populations. METHODS: Data from the cross-sectional population-based HepaMeta study conducted in Slovakia in 2011 were used. The sample comprised a total of 452 Roma. Measurements of special bioactive mediators were taken in final groups consisting of 63 male Roma respondents (mean age = 32.59; SD = 8.63) and 117 female Roma respondents (mean age = 34.55; SD = 8.35). Respondents were divided into three groups: those with normal weight, those with overweight and obese. Values for anthropometric parameters, lipids parameters, C-reactive protein, TNF-alpha, IL-6, leptin, and adiponectin were determined. RESULTS: 27.6% of examined Roma females and 26.9% of males were overweight. Obesity (BMI > 30.0 kg/m2) appeared in a higher proportion of males (28.8%) compared with female (26.5%). Mean levels of total cholesterol, triacylglycerol and LDL-cholesterol were significantly elevated in the overweight and obese subjects compared to normal-weight Roma respondents. The relation was reversed for HDL-C level, with significantly decreased levels in both male and female obese Roma (p < 0.001). The concentration of adiponectin was significantly lower in obese subjects of both genders versus non-obese (Roma male p < 0.001, Roma female p < 0.05). Plasma levels of leptin, IL-6, hs-CRP as well as TNF-alpha increased in Roma significantly with increasing BMI. CONCLUSION: The study is the first one to provide data about selected biomarkers. Results may be useful in predicting obesity and its related diseases in the Roma population from the eastern part of Slovakia.
