Objective Objectives To investigate the gender difference affecting the efficacy of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the mouse cardiac arrest (CA) model.Methods CA was induced in 30 Kunming mice (15 male and 15 female) by trans-oesophageal cardiac pacing for 4 minutes.Epinephrine was then administrated intra-artery,and CPR was performed.The time required for restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) was observed,but if ROSC failed to appear at 10 minutes after CPR,resuscitation was discontinued.Blood pressure and electrocardiograms of resuscitated animals were invasively monitored for an additional 60 minutes.Blood pressure,heart rate,the restoration of spontaneous respiration (ROSR) and survival time were observed and recorded.Results All 15 female mice and 14 of 15 male mice had ROSC.There were no significant differences in the time required for ROSC,ROSR,and survival between the two groups [(50±17)svs.(46±12)s; (2.4±1)minvs.(2.5±1)min; 28 (1,72)h vs.16 (3,72)h,P > 0.05)].Moreover,neither blood pressure nor heart rate showed significant differences one hour after ROSC between the two groups.Conclusions Sex differences did not affect the efficacy of CPR,but the precise mechanism is still unclear,and further investigations are required.

Objective To investigate the pharmacological hypothermic effect of WIN55, 212-2 on neuronal apoptosis after cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Methods Cardiac Arrest ( CA ) was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats.Five minutes after onset of CA, cardiopulmonary resuscitation ( CPR) was carried out.At 30 minutes post-resuscitation, the animals were randomized into three groups (n=10 in each group): (1) WIN55, 212-2 hypothermia group [W group, WIN55, 212-2, 1 mg/(kg· h)].(2) Normothermia group (NT group, 5%DMSO);(3) WIN55, 212-2 with normothermia group (W+NT group, WIN55, 212-2, 1 mg/(kg· h).Animals in WIN55, 212-2 hypothermia group and WIN55, 212-2 with normothermia group were dealt with continuous intravenous infusion of WIN55, 212-2 [1 mg/(kg· h)] for 4 h, while rats in NT group were infused with equal volume of 5% DMSO instead.The survival time and neurological deficit score ( NDS) were observed.The CA models were established in three groups.After rats were sacrificed, the brains were harvested for detecting histopathological changes and apoptosis of neural cell at 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after ROSC respectively.Five animals of each group were chosen randomly ( random number ) .Results Body temperatures of rats in W group decreased from 37°C to 34°C in 4 hours.Accumulated survival rate in W group was higher than that in the other two groups ( P=0.02) .NDS was significantly improved in W group than that in the other two groups ( P<0.05) .Morphological change in W group was less serious than that in the other two groups.The number of neuron apoptosis in W group was smaller than that in the other two groups.Conclusions WIN55, 212-2 inducing pharmacologically hypothermia during post-resuscitation prolonged survival and improved cerebral function in rat cardiac arrest models.The beneficial effects of WIN55, 212-2 were associated with ameliorating the histopathological damage in brain and alleviating the neuron apoptosis.

Objective To compare the impact of intra-arterial versus intravenous administration of epinephr-ine on the efficacy CPR in mice. Methods Transoesophageal cardiac pacing was performed to induce cardiac arrest for 4 minitues in 20 Kunming male mice. The mice were then randomized to two groups (n = 10 in each group), and received epinephrine of 0.02 mg/kg via either carotid artery (IA-gro) or jugular vein (IV-gro) injection. Chest compression and ventilation were performed; and the rate of restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and survival time were recorded. CPR was stopped if spontaneous circulation was not restored within 10 minutes. Results There was no significant difference in the rates of ROSC between IA-gro and IV-gro (10/10 vs. 8/10, P>0.05), nor in the time of ROSC or survival time [51 ± 13 s vs. 62 ± 24 s; 8.5 (6.0, 17.0) h vs. 6.5 (2.8, 21.3) h, P > 0.05]. Conclusions Neither intra-arterial nor intravenous administration of epinephrine has no obvious impact on the efficacy of CPR in mice.
