OBJETIVO: Verificar o potencial efeito protetor de suplementação com vitaminas antioxidantes em um modelo de síndrome de isquemia-reperfusão renal em ratos. MÉTODOS: Foram utilizados 29 ratos Wistar, divididos em três grupos: Grupo I e II (n=10 cada), submetidos a indução do estresse oxidativo pela aplicação de 60 minutos de isquemia renal, seguidos de 10 minutos de reperfusão; adicionalmente, os animais do Grupo II foram pré-tratados por doze dias com vitaminas antioxidantes (vitamina C 11,43mg/kg e vitamina E 28,57mg/kg) antes da submissão à isquemia; Grupo III (n=9), correspondendo aos animais Sham, que foram manipulados de forma equivalente aos outros grupos, porém sem indução do estresse oxidativo e sem suplementação antioxidante. Findo isso, as amostras de sangue e os rins foram colhidos para avaliação dos níveis do malondialdeído, do ácido úrico e da capacidade antioxidante total. RESULTADOS: Para o malondialdeído e ácido úrico do Grupo I foi observado um aumento estatisticamente significante (p<0,01) em relação ao Grupo III, o qual não apresentou diferença em relação ao Grupo II. Para os níveis de capacidade antioxidante total, foi encontrada uma diminuição nos animais do Grupo I em relação aos Grupos II e III (p<0,01). CONCLUSÃO: Esses dados confirmam não apenas a efetiva participação do estresse oxidativo neste modelo de síndrome de isquemia e reperfusão renal em ratos, como também que o uso de vitaminas antioxidantes, associadas à dieta, pode proteger os animais das alterações oxidativas.

Background. Melatonin is a free radical scavenger with important actions in the study of renal ischemia and reperfusion (I/R). This study evaluated possible renal protection of high doses of melatonin in an experimental model of I/R in which rats were submitted to acute hyperglycemia under anesthesia with isoflurane.Method. Forty-four male Wistar rats, weighing more than 300 g, were randomly divided into 5 groups: G1, sham (n = 10); G2, melatonin (n = 10; 50 mg.kg(-1)); G3, hyperglycemia (n = 9; glucose 2.5 g.kg(-1)); G4, hyperglycemia/melatonin (n = 10; 2.5 g.kg(-1) glucose + melatonin 50 mg.kg(-1)); and G5, I/R (n = 5). In all groups, anesthesia was induced with 4% isoflurane and maintained with 1.5% to 2.0% isoflurane. Intraperitoneal injection of melatonin (G1, G4), glucose (G3, G4), or saline (G1, G5) was performed 40 minutes before left renal ischemia. Serum plasma values for creatinine and glucose were determined at baseline (M1), immediately following reperfusion (M2), and 24 hours after completion of the experiment (M3). Histological analysis was performed to evaluate tubular necrosis (0-5).Results. Serum glucose was higher at M2 in the groups supplemented with glucose, hyperglycemia (356.00 +/- 107.83), and hyperglycemia/melatonin (445.3 +/- 148.32). Creatinine values were higher at T3 (P = .0001) for I/R (3.6 +/- 0.37), hyperglycemia/melatonin (3.9 +/- 0.46), and hyperglycemia (3.71 +/- 0.69) and lower in the sham (0.79 +/- 0.16) and melatonin (2.01 +/- 1.01) groups, P < .05. Histology showed no necrosis injury in the G1, lesion grade 2 in the G2, and severe acute tubular necrosis in the G3: (grade 4), G4: (grade 5) and G5: (grade 4) groups (P < .0001).Discussion. Melatonin protected the kidneys submitted to I/R in rats without hyperglycemia; however, this did not occur when the I/R lesion was associated with hyperglycemia.Conclusions. Due to its antioxidant and antiapoptotic action, melatonin was able to mitigate, but not prevent acute tubular necrosis in rats with hyperglycemia under anesthesia by isoflurane.

Intermittent hemodialysis (IHD) and continuous renal replacement therapies (CRRT) are used as Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) therapy and have certain advantages and disadvantages. Extended daily dialysis (EDD) has emerged as an alternative to CRRT in the management of hemodynamically unstable AKI patients, mainly in developed countries.Objectives: We hypothesized that EDD is a safe option for AKI treatment and aimed to describe metabolic and fluid control of AKI patients undergoing EDD and identify complications and risk factors associated with death.Study Selection: This is an observational and retrospective study describing introduction of EDD at our institution. A total of 231 hemodynamically unstable AKI patients (noradrenalin dose between 0.3 and 1.0 ucg/kg/min) were assigned to 1367 EDD session. EDD consisted of 6-8 h of HD 6 days a week, with blood flow of 200 ml/min, dialysate flows of 300 ml/min.Data Synthesis: Mean age was 60.6 +/- 15.8 years, 97.4% of patients were in the intensive care unit, and sepsis was the main etiology of AKI (76.2). BUN and creatinine levels stabilized after four sessions at around 38 and 2.4 mg/dl, respectively. Fluid balance decreased progressively and stabilized around zero after five sessions. Weekly delivered Kt/V was 5.94 +/- 0.7. Hypotension and filter clotting occurred in 47.5 and 12.4% of treatment session, respectively. Regarding AKI outcome, 22.5% of patients presented renal function recovery, 5.6% of patients remained on dialysis after 30 days, and 71.9% of patients died. Age and focus abdominal sepsis were identified as risk factors for death. Urine output and negative fluid balance were identified as protective factors.Conclusions: EDD is effective for AKI patients, allowing adequate metabolic and fluid control. Age, focus abdominal sepsis, and lower urine output as well as positive fluid balance after two EDD sessions were associated significantly with death.
