Abstract:
Objective To study the hemodynamic characteristics of ductus venosus,and its relationship to inflammatory cytokines in ovine fetus with systemic inflammatory response syndrome.Methods Ten near-term fetal sheep radomly divided into two groups.Five of them were in experimental group,and five of them were in control group.All of the animals underwent abdominal cordocentesis guided by ultrasound at the term of 120-130 days,with a LPS injection at a dosage of 10 μg/kg of fetal weight in experimental group,and the same quantity of 0.9% NaCl solution in control.Doppler echocardiography were performed to determine hemodynamics changes of ductus venosus at 0.5 hour before the LPS injection,and at 1 hour,3 hours,6 hours after LPS injection.Meanwhile,fetal umbilical vein blood was sampled for ELISA essay of serum TNF-α and IL-6 at each of the above time points.Results In experimental group,the ductus venosus waveform PI values(DVPI),maximum velocity during cardiac ventricle systole(S)and during cardiac ventricle diastole(D),ductus venosus index(DVI),ductus venosus blood flow(DVQ),the ratio of S and ductus venous maximum velocity during atrial contracton(S/A),(S-A)/D increased with the time after LPS injection,and still significantly increased as compared with the control animals(all P＜0.05).A decreased with the time after LPS injection,and still significantly changed as compared with the controls(P＜0.05).And the ductus venosus diameter(DVD)had not obvious change(P＞0.05).There were significantly positive correlations between DVPI and TNF-α,IL-6(all P＜0.05),negative corelations between A and TNF-α,IL-6(all P＜0.05),and positive correlations between S wave,DVI,DVQ,D wave,S/A,(S-A)/D and IL-6(all P＜0.05),but not obvious relationships between S wave,DVI,DVQ,D wave,S/A,(S-A)/D and TNF-a(all P＞0.05).Condusions DVPI and A might be easy and useful quantitative parameters in the evaluation of fetal systemic inflammatory respome syndrome with LPS injection.
