Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Previously, there are some researches on studying the effects of hypoxia or hypothermia singly. Nowadays, study on the synthetic action of hypoxia and hypothermia has been attached widely importance.OBJECTIVE: To explore the combination effects of acute hypothermia and hypoxia on superoxide dismutase(SOD) and malondialdehyde in normal rabbits and rabbits with myocardial ischemia.DESIGN: Randomized controlled trial.SETTING, MATERIALS and INTERVENTIONS: Experimental site:Physiological Laboratory of Youjiang Ethnic Medical College. A total of 32 healthy rabbits weighed between 1.8to 2.5 kg were chosen. They were randomly divided into 4 groups each with 8 rabbits: normal group, hypothermia and hypoxia group, ischemic group with normal temperature and oxygen,ischemic group with hypothermia and hypoxia. Normal rabbits and ischemic rabbits were put in fridge at low temperature( -10 ± 2) ℃ and low oxygen (oxygen content of 8.5% ) for one hour and tested activity of SOD and concentration of malondialdehyde in serum.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparison of serum SOD and malondialdehyde between normal rabbits and myocardial ischemic rabbits under the acute hypothermia and hypoxia conditions.RESULTS: The SOD level of rabbits in hypothermia and hypoxia group [(371.04 ± 29.96) kNU/L] was much lower than that of normal temperature and oxygen group[ (424.09 ± 22.59) kNU/L] ( t = 5.21, P < 0.01) while the content of malondialdehyde[ (5.58 ± 0. 44) μ mol/L] was greater than that of normal group[ (4.44 ± 1.11) μ mol/L] ( t = 3.21, P < 0.05) . In myocardial ischemia group with hypothermia and hypoxia, SOD was greatly lower than that of myocardial ischemia group with normal temperature and oxygen(t=4.37, P < 0.01) while the malondialdehyde was greatly higher than that of ischemic group with normal temperature and oxygen group(t=2.94, P <0.05).CONCLUSION: The combined effects of acute hypothermia and hypoxia will aggravate the damage to body.
