    Aim: To compare effects of contrast medium, air, and ozone on ischemia/reperfusion injury due to intussusception. Materials and methods: Thirty Wistar rats were allocated into five groups (n = 6). In the control group (CG), 2 cm of colonic segment, 5 cm distal to ileocecal valve, was removed. Intussusception was performed at 5 cm distal to the ileocecal valve by pushing a proximal intestinal segment distally by stile in experimental groups. One hour later, in the sham-operated group (SG), manual reduction was performed. In the reduction groups, reduction of intussusception was performed by contrast medium (CMG, 1/1 diluted omnipaqueR, infusion rate 2 mL/min), by air (AG, Pmax = 60 mmHg), or by ozone (OG, 10 mu g/mL, 0.5 mg/kg, Pmax = 60 mmHg). One hour after reduction, 2 cm of colonic segment was removed. Colonic tissues were evaluated for histopathological grades and oxidative injury markers (malondialdehyde [MDA], nitric oxide [NO], and total sulfhydryl [T-SH] values). Results: Mucosal injury score was significantly higher in AG then in CG or SG (P < 0.05). There was no difference regarding mucosal injury between the other groups (P > 0.05). MDA levels were significantly higher and NO levels were significantly lower in CMG, OG, and AG than in CG (P < 0.05). There was no difference between OG and the other experimental groups in both MDA and NO levels (P > 0.05). Conclusion: None of the reduction methods in intussusception have superiority over others in preventing ischemia/reperfusion injury.

    Aim: Neonates undergoing surgery may receive phototherapy (PT) for the treatment of hyperbilirubinemia. Although the effects of PT on neonatal structures are well documented, the effect of PT on wound healing has not been previously evaluated. An experimental study was performed to evaluate the effect of PT on growth factor levels responsible for wound healing in neonatal rat skin. Materials and Methods: Eighteen Wistar newborn rats (7 +/- 2 g) were included in the study. Rats were randomized into 3 groups: control (CG), PT, and sham (SG) (n = 6). Both groups had 1-cm median dorsal skin incision. In CG, 1 x 1 cm of dorsal skin was sampled including the incised skin. The PT group received 5 banks of blue light (wave density, 30-40 mu w/cm(2) per nanometer; exposure distance, 45 cm). Phototherapy was started 24 hours after birth and exposed during light period (mean duration, 21 hours to 15 minutes perpendicular to 2 hour to 1.5 minutes). Sham group consisted of animals that received a bank of white light with same exposure distance and a total duration of 26 hours to 18 minutes +/- 3 hours to 9.1 minutes. After exposure, 1 x 1 cm dorsal skin samples were obtained from both PT and SG groups, including the median incision. The effect of PT was evaluated with the expressions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), its receptor (VEGF receptor), and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) in endothelial vessels and fibroblasts of neonatal skin samples. Results: There was no significant difference between groups in VEGF receptor and transforming growth factor beta expressions. The VEGF levels in endothelial vessels were significantly decreased in PT and SG when compared with CG (P < .05). Conclusion: Vascular endothelial growth factor is a mediator of angiogenesis and may decrease in neonatal rat skin after light exposure. It can be suggested that decreased levels of VEGF after PT application may alter angiogenesis and also may adversely affect the healing features of neonatal skin. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc.

    Evaluation of omental inflammatory response with P-/E-selectin levels and histopathologic findings in experimental model
    (W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, 2012) Aslan, Mustafa Kemal; Boybeyi, Ozlem; Soyer, Tutku; Senyucel, Mine Fedakar; Ayva, Sebnem; Kisa, Ucler; Cakmak, Murat
    Aim: The omentum plays a crucial role in abdominal defense mechanism by adhering to sites of inflammation and absorbing bacteria and debris from the peritoneal cavity. An experimental study was conducted to evaluate the inflammatory response of omentum in different abdominal events with omental P-/E-selectin levels and histopathologic findings. Materials and methods: Thirty Wistar rats were placed into 5 groups (n = 6), including a control group (CG), sham group (SG), bladder perforation (BP) group, splenic laceration (SL) group, and cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) group. Omental samples were obtained in CG after median laparotomy. In accordance with described models, BP, SL, and CLP were performed in experimental groups. Twenty-four hours after the first laparotomy, localization of the omental pad was noted, and omental samples were obtained for biochemical analysis of levels and histopathologic findings (no. of vessels in sections, polymorphic nuclear leukocytes [PMLs], lymphocytes). The mean P-/E-selectin levels and histopathologic findings of inflammation were compared between groups. Results: Although omentum was adhered to the cecum in all subjects after CLP, similar findings were not detected in other groups. P-selectin and E-selectin levels and number of PML were significantly increased in the CLP group when compared with other groups (P < .05). The number of vessels in sections was significantly increased in CLP group when compared with SG and BP groups (P < .05), and the BP group had a decreased number of vessels than CG (P < .05). The number of PML was significantly increased in SG and SL and BP groups with respect to CG (P < .05). Conclusion: Among different experimental intraabdominal catastrophes, only CLP caused an inflammatory response and increased levels of adhesion molecules in the omentum. These findings suggest that the nature of the inflammation is the main determining factor for the omental function in intraabdominal events. (c) 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
