Marjorie Arca, MD April 2014 V INTRODUCTION To the Members of APSA: Two years ago, a group of pediatric surgeons with interest and training in surgical critical care met to cultivate and enhance our collective experience within pediatric surgery. We felt that as pediatric surgeons, our voices remain unique, relevant and valuable in caring for our patients, in the training of our fellows, and in informing our colleagues. One of the first projects that we embarked upon is a Handbook of Pediatric Surgical Critical Care. We felt that this would create a uniform basis for our critical care and pediatric surgical curriculum. We also thought that this handbook would provide another dimension to the training for neonatology, pediatric critical care, and adult critical care fellows. Finally, we felt that this project may be helpful to our colleagues, who already in practice, as a point of reference in the care of the most complex surgical patients. I personally would like to thank all the contributors to this seminal project. We also thank APSA Staff for helping us put this project together. We would also like to thank APSA for allowing the website to be the platform for dissemination of the handbook. The authors of this handbook welcome any and all comments from the membership.

  • Chemical Pancreatectomy Treats Chronic Pancreatitis While Preserving Endocrine Function in Preclinical Models
    Chemical pancreatectomy treats chronic pancreatitis while preserving endocrine function in preclinical models Mohamed Saleh, … , Krishna Prasadan, George Gittes J Clin Invest. 2020. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI143301. Research In-Press Preview Endocrinology Gastroenterology Chronic pancreatitis affects over 250,000 people in the US and millions worldwide. It is associated with chronic debilitating pain, pancreatic exocrine failure, high-risk of pancreatic cancer, and usually progresses to diabetes. Treatment options are limited and ineffective. We developed a new potential therapy, wherein a pancreatic ductal infusion of 1-2% acetic acid in mice and non-human primates resulted in a non-regenerative, near-complete ablation of the exocrine pancreas, with complete preservation of the islets. Pancreatic ductal infusion of acetic acid in a mouse model of chronic pancreatitis led to resolution of chronic inflammation and pancreatitis-associated pain. Furthermore, acetic acid-treated animals showed improved glucose tolerance and insulin secretion. The loss of exocrine tissue in this procedure would not typically require further management in patients with chronic pancreatitis because they usually have pancreatic exocrine failure requiring dietary enzyme supplements. Thus, this procedure, which should be readily translatable to humans through an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), may offer a potential innovative non-surgical therapy for chronic pancreatitis that relieves pain and prevents the progression of pancreatic diabetes.

Preclinical trials have demonstrated that repurposing liposomes to sequester such compounds may prove clinically useful. The use of such “empty” liposomes in the dialysate during dialysis avoids recognition by complement surveillance, allowing high doses of liposomes to be used. The “reach” of dialysis may also be increased to molecules that are not traditionally dialysable. We aim to review the current literature in this area with the aims of increasing awareness and informing further research. A structured literature search identified thirteen papers which met the inclusion criteria. Augmenting the extraction of ammonia in hepatic failure with pH-gradient liposomes with acidic centres in peritoneal dialysis is the most studied area, with work progressing toward phase one trials. Liposomes used to augment the removal of exogenous intoxicants and protein- Citation: Hart, K.; Harvey, M.; Tang, bound uraemic and hepatic toxins that accumulate in these organ failures and liposome-supported M.; Wu, Z.; Cave, G.

  • Role of IV Lipid Emulsion Antidote
    Vet Times The website for the veterinary profession https://www.vettimes.co.uk Role of IV lipid emulsion antidote Author : Lotfi El Bahri Categories : General, Vets Date : March 28, 2016 The first animal reports suggesting an increased rate of recovery from barbiturate-induced CNS depression with lipid infusion were published in 19621. Encouraging results of animal studies, and successful use in human case reports, have demonstrated lipid emulsion has a potential role in the treatment of lipophilic molecules intoxications2. Background Image: Fotolia/Sherry Young. Lipid emulsion – also referred to as intravenous lipid emulsion (ILE), lipid resuscitation therapy, intravenous lipid emulsion rescue and intravenous fat emulsion – is known as a component of parenteral nutrition (ILE 30 per cent). It is also used as a carrier for lipid soluble drugs, such as propofol, etomidate and diazepam3,4. ILE is an injectable oil in water emulsion mixing long-chain and medium-chain triglycerides, or a combination of both, purified egg phospholipids as emulsifiers, anhydrous glycerol for the adjustment of tonicity, water for injection (with a pH of six to nine) and contains no preservatives3,4. ILE is available in concentrations ranging from 10 per cent to 30 per cent. Although purified 1 / 6 soybean oil is most commonly used as the major source of triglycerides, other sources are also used (such as olive oil and fish oil)3,4. The United States Pharmacopeia and the European Pharmacopoeia standards have established a globule size distribution limit for all lipid emulsions where the mean droplet size must be lower than 500 nanometres, and the percentage of fat larger than 5µm must be lower than 0.05 per cent5.

Size, surface charge, and surface morphology of aDNP was determined by dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy. CpG was either loaded onto aDNP by adsorption (CpG-adsorbed-aDNP) or conjugated to aDNP (CpG-conjugated-aDNP). In vitro cytokine production by bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) was measured by flow cytometry. aDNPs size and zeta potential could be controlled to produce uniform particles in the size range of 50 to 300 nm, surface charge of 16.5 to +14 mV, and were spherical in shape.
