BACKGROUND: Gray-to-white matter ratio (GWR), measured by computed tomography (CT), is commonly used to predict poor neurological outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The prognostic performance of GWR in OHCA patients receiving extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) is not known. METHODS: This study is a secondary analysis of data from the SAVE-J II registry, a retrospective, multicenter study. Participants were divided into four groups according to average GWR (aGWR) values ranging from 1.00 to 1.39, separated by 0.1 intervals. The aGWR values were calculated for bilateral basal ganglia, centrum semiovale, and high convexity obtained by head CT within 24 h after ECPR. Primary outcome was poor neurological outcomes at 30-day. RESULTS: In total, 1,146 OHCA patients treated with ECPR were included in our analysis. Overall, participants with lower aGWR more likely had poor neurological outcomes, aGWR 1.00-1.09 (94.6%), aGWR 1.10-1-19 (87.8%), aGWR 1.20-1.29 (78.5%), and aGWR 1.30-1.39 (70.3%). Multivariable logistic regression showed that lower aGWR was associated with poor neurological outcome at 30-day, aGWR 1.30-1.39: reference, aGWR 1.00-1.09: adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 10.01 (95% confidence interval (CI) [3.58-27.99]), aGWR 1.10-1.19: aOR 4.83 (95% CI [2.31-10.12]), aGWR 1.20-1.29: aOR 2.16 (95% CI [1.02-4.55]). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the prognostic performance of aGWR had an area under the curve of 0.628, 95% CI [0.59-0.66]). The aGWR threshold of 1.005 for predicting poor neurological outcome reached 100% specificity with 0.1% sensitivity. CONCLUSION: Early neuro-prognostication depending on GWR may not be sufficient after ECPR and requires a multimodal approach.

Background: Multidisciplinary team meetings (MDTMs) are crucial in the ICU. However, daily rounds may not address all sensitive issues due to time constraints and the complexity of cases. This study aimed to describe detailed information and characteristics of ad hoc MDTMs in the ICU. Methods: This single-center, retrospective study analyzed adult emergency ICU admissions at Okayama University Hospital from 1 January 2019 to 31 December 2023. During this period, weekly regular multidisciplinary team ICU rounds were introduced in June 2020, and regular weekday morning MDTMs began in April 2022. A multiple logistic regression analysis was applied to determine the impact of these changes on the frequency of ad hoc MDTMs, adjusting for variables including annual changes. Results: The study analyzed 2487 adult EICU patients, with a median age of 66, and 63.3% of them male. MDTMs were held for 168 patients (6.8%), typically those with severe conditions, including higher COVID-19 prevalence and APACHE II scores, and longer ICU stays. Despite a constant total number of MDTMs, the likelihood of conducting ad hoc MDTMs increased annually (adjusted OR 1.19; 95% CI, 1.04-1.35). Of the 329 MDTMs conducted for these patients, 59.0% addressed end-of-life care, involving an average of 11 participants, mainly nurses and emergency and critical-care physicians. Conclusions: Changes in ICU round and meeting structures might be associated with a higher frequency of conducting ad hoc MDTMs, highlighting their evolving role and importance in patient care management.

BACKGROUND: The impact of the sex of bystanders who initiate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients has not been fully elucidated. This study aims to investigate the association between the sex of bystanders who perform CPR and the clinical outcomes of OHCA patients in real-world clinical settings. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective, observational study using data from the Okayama City Fire Department in Japan. Patients were categorized based on bystanders' sex. Our primary outcomes were return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). Our secondary outcome was 30-day survival and 30-day favorable neurological outcome, defined as Cerebral Performance Category score of 1 or 2. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to examine the association between these groups and outcomes. RESULTS: The study included 3,209 patients with a comparable distribution of male (1,540 patients: 48.0%) and female bystanders (1,669 patients: 52.0%) between the groups. Overall, 221 (6.9%) ROSC at hospital arrival, 226 (7.0%) patients had 30-day survival, and 121 (3.8%) patients had 30-day favorable neurological outcomes. Bystander sex (female as reference) did not contribute to ROSC at hospital arrival (adjusted OR [aOR] 1.11, 95% CI: 0.76-1.61), 30-day survival (aOR 1.23, 95% CI: 0.83-1.82), or 30-day favorable neurological outcomes (aOR 0.66, 95% CI: 0.34-1.27). Basic life support education experience was a bystander factor positively associated with ROSC. Patient factors positively associated with ROSC were initial shockable rhythm and witness of cardiac arrest. CONCLUSION: There were no differences in ROSC, 30-day survival, or 30-day neurological outcomes in OHCA patients based on bystander sex.

BACKGROUND: Limited data are available on organ donation practices and recipient outcomes, particularly when comparing donors who experienced cardiac arrest and received extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) followed by veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) decannulation, versus those who experienced cardiac arrest without receiving ECPR. This study aims to explore organ donation practices and outcomes post-ECPR to enhance our understanding of the donation potential after cardiac arrest. METHODS: We conducted a nationwide retrospective cohort study using data from the Japan Organ Transplant Network database, covering all deceased organ donors between July 17, 2010, and August 31, 2022. We included donors who experienced at least one episode of cardiac arrest. During the study period, patients undergoing ECMO treatment were not eligible for a legal diagnosis of brain death. We compared the timeframes associated with each donor's management and the long-term graft outcomes of recipients between ECPR and non-ECPR groups. RESULTS: Among 370 brain death donors with an episode of cardiac arrest, 26 (7.0%) received ECPR and 344 (93.0%) did not; the majority were due to out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. The median duration of veno-arterial ECMO support after ECPR was 3 days. Patients in the ECPR group had significantly longer intervals from admission to organ procurement compared to those not receiving ECPR (13 vs. 9 days, P = 0.005). Lung graft survival rates were significantly lower in the ECPR group (log-rank test P = 0.009), with no significant differences in other organ graft survival rates. Of 160 circulatory death donors with an episode of cardiac arrest, 27 (16.9%) received ECPR and 133 (83.1%) did not. Time intervals from admission to organ procurement following circulatory death and graft survival showed no significant differences between ECPR and non-ECPR groups. The number of organs donated was similar between the ECPR and non-ECPR groups, regardless of brain or circulatory death. CONCLUSIONS: This nationwide study reveals that lung graft survival was lower in recipients from ECPR-treated donors, highlighting the need for targeted research and protocol adjustments in post-ECPR organ donation.

BACKGROUND: Evidence indicates frailty before intensive care unit (ICU) admission leads to poor outcomes. However, it is unclear whether quality of life (QOL) and activities of daily living (ADL) for survivors of critical illness admitted to the ICU via the emergency department remain consistent or deteriorate in the long-term compared to baseline. This study aimed to evaluate long-term QOL/ADL outcomes in these patients, categorized by the presence or absence of frailty according to Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) score, as well as explore factors that influence these outcomes. METHODS: This was a post-hoc analysis of a prospective, multicenter, observational study conducted across Japan. It included survivors aged 65 years or older who were admitted to the ICU through the emergency department. Based on CFS scores, participants were categorized into either the not frail group or the frail group, using a threshold CFS score of < 4. Our primary outcome was patient-centered outcomes (QOL/ADL) measured by the five-level EuroQol five-dimensional questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) and the Barthel Index six months post-ICU admission, comparing results from baseline. Secondary outcomes included exploration of factors associated with QOL/ADL six months post-ICU admission using multiple linear regression analyses. RESULTS: Of 514 candidates, 390 participants responded to the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire, while 237 responded to the Barthel Index. At six months post-admission, mean EQ-5D-5L values declined in both the not frail and frail groups (0.80 to 0.73, p = 0.003 and 0.58 to 0.50, p = 0.002, respectively); Barthel Index scores also declined in both groups (98 to 83, p < 0.001 and 79 to 61, p < 0.001, respectively). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that baseline frailty (β coefficient, -0.15; 95% CI, - 0.23 to - 0.07; p < 0.001) and pre-admission EQ-5D-5L scores (β coefficient, 0.14; 95% CI, 0.02 to 0.26; p = 0.016) affected EQ-5D-5L scores at six months. Similarly, baseline frailty (β coefficient, -12.3; 95% CI, - 23.9 to - 0.80; p = 0.036) and Barthel Index scores (β coefficient, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.30 to 0.79; p < 0.001) influenced the Barthel Index score at six months. CONCLUSIONS: Regardless of frailty, older ICU survivors from the emergency department were more likely to experience reduced QOL and ADL six months after ICU admission compared to baseline.

Massive methanol exposure can lead to severe and detrimental effects that can result in death or brain death. As organs from patients with brain death after methanol ingestion are less likely to be recovered, these patients have been considered marginal donors. We present a case of successful multiple organ transplantation (heart, lungs, and kidneys) from a methanol-poisoned patient. Our experience illustrates that donor death from methanol intoxication does not preclude organ transplantation.

Hydrogen gas, renowned for its antioxidant properties, has emerged as a novel therapeutic agent with applications across various medical domains, positioning it as a potential adjunct therapy in transplantation. Beyond its antioxidative properties, hydrogen also exerts anti-inflammatory effects by modulating pro-inflammatory cytokines and signaling pathways. Furthermore, hydrogen's capacity to activate cytoprotective pathways bolsters cellular resilience against stressors. In recent decades, significant advancements have been made in the critical medical procedure of transplantation. However, persistent challenges such as ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and graft rejection continue to hinder transplant success rates. This comprehensive review explores the potential applications and therapeutic implications of hydrogen in transplantation, shedding light on its role in mitigating IRI, improving graft survival, and modulating immune responses. Through a meticulous analysis encompassing both preclinical and clinical studies, we aim to provide valuable insights into the promising utility of hydrogen as a complementary therapy in transplantation.

BACKGROUND: The appropriateness of a restrictive transfusion strategy for those with active bleeding after traumatic injury remains uncertain. Given the association between tissue hypoxia and lactate levels, we hypothesized that the optimal transfusion strategy may differ based on lactate levels. This post hoc analysis of the RESTRIC trial sought to investigate the association between transfusion strategies and patient outcomes based on initial lactate levels. METHODS: We performed a post hoc analysis of the RESTRIC trial, a cluster-randomized, crossover, non-inferiority multicenter trials, comparing a restrictive and liberal red blood cell transfusion strategy for adult trauma patients at risk of major bleeding. This was conducted during the initial phase of trauma resuscitation; from emergency department arrival up to 7 days after hospital admission or intensive care unit (ICU) discharge. Patients were grouped by lactate levels at emergency department arrival: low (< 2.5 mmol/L), middle (≥ 2.5 and < 4.0 mmol/L), and high (≥ 4.0 mmol/L). We compared 28 days mortality and ICU-free and ventilator-free days using multiple linear regression among groups. RESULTS: Of the 422 RESTRIC trial participants, 396 were analyzed, with low (n = 131), middle (n = 113), and high (n = 152) lactate. Across all lactate groups, 28 days mortality was similar between strategies. However, in the low lactate group, the restrictive approach correlated with more ICU-free (β coefficient 3.16; 95% CI 0.45 to 5.86) and ventilator-free days (β coefficient 2.72; 95% CI 0.18 to 5.26) compared to the liberal strategy. These findings persisted even after excluding patients with severe traumatic brain injury. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that restrictive transfusion strategy might not have a significant impact on 28-day survival rates, regardless of lactate levels. However, the liberal transfusion strategy may lead to shorter ICU- and ventilator-free days for patients with low initial blood lactate levels.

Sepsis is a global health challenge marked by limited clinical options and high mortality rates. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a cellular energy sensor that mediates multiple crucial metabolic pathways that may be an attractive therapeutic target in sepsis. Pre-clinical experimental studies have demonstrated that pharmacological activation of AMPK can offer multiple potential benefits during sepsis, including anti-inflammatory effects, induction of autophagy, promotion of mitochondrial biogenesis, enhanced phagocytosis, antimicrobial properties, and regulation of tight junction assembly. This review aims to discuss the existing evidence supporting the therapeutic potential of AMPK activation in sepsis management.

AIM: Vertebral artery dissection (VAD) is a rare cause of non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) with significant clinical implications. This study compared the clinical characteristics and outcomes of SAH from intracranial VAD rupture to those from other etiologies, primarily aneurysmal rupture. METHODS: This single-center retrospective cohort study at Okayama University Hospital included patients with non-traumatic SAH diagnosed between 2019 and 2023. Patients were categorized into "VAD rupture" and "other etiologies" groups. The main outcome was clinical presentation and symptoms. Additional outcomes included ICU mortality, in-hospital mortality, and unfavorable outcomes at discharge and 6 months, defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 3-6. RESULTS: A total of 66 patients were included, with 14 in the VAD rupture group and 52 in the other etiologies group. The VAD rupture group was younger (median age 49 vs. 64 years, p = 0.003) and had a higher incidence of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (42.9% vs. 9.6%, p = 0.011). Preceding headache was more common in the VAD rupture group (78.6% vs. 11.5%, p < 0.001), with a median duration of 36 h before presentation. ICU and in-hospital mortality was higher in the VAD rupture group (both 50.0% vs. 19.3%, p = 0.019). No significant differences were found in unfavorable neurological outcomes at hospital discharge and 6 months. CONCLUSIONS: VAD-related SAH often presents with prodromal headaches, severe symptoms like out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, and higher ICU and in-hospital mortality than other SAH causes, though long-term outcomes are similar. Larger, prospective studies are needed to refine interventions.

Animal-based research is essential to the study of sepsis pathophysiology, diagnostics, and therapeutics. However, animal models of sepsis are often associated with high mortality because of the difficulty in predicting imminent death based on premortem assessment of the animals. The use of validated visual scoring would allow researchers to systematically identify humane endpoints but visual approaches require high interobserver agreement for accurate results. The objective of this study was to establish a scoring system for mice undergoing cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)-induced sepsis based on 3 visual parameters: respiratory status, activity and response to stimulus (ASR), and eye appearance, with scores ranging from 0 to 3. In the first study, we evaluated interobserver agreement. Veterinary and investigative staff assessed 283 mice with CLP and had substantial to near-perfect agreement for all 3 parameters as evaluated using weighted Cohen κ statistic. The second study assessed the ability of the scoring system and temperature to predict death. The scoring system and subcutaneous transpond- ers were used to monitor C57BL/6J mice (n = 80, male and female) until death or for 7 days after CLP. Results showed that the scoring system discriminates between surviving (n = 26) and nonsurviving (n = 54) septic mice. The scoring system was accurate in predicting death, with an AUC of 0.8997. The sensitivity and specificity of the ASR parameter were 96% and 92%, respectively, and for the eye parameter were 94% and 73%. A sum of the ASR and eye scores that was 5 or more was also predictive of death. Temperature was a quantitative predictor, with sensitivity and specificity of 93% and 92%, respectively. This scoring system refines the CLP model by allowing identification of humane endpoints and avoidance of spontaneous death.

OBJECTIVE: This research investigated treatment patterns for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients with Do Not Attempt Resuscitation orders in Japanese emergency departments and the associated clinician stress. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted at 9 hospitals in Okayama, Japan, targeting emergency department nurses and physicians. The questionnaire inquired about the last treated out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patient with a Do Not Attempt Resuscitation. We assessed emotional stress on a 0-10 scale and moral distress on a 1-5 scale among clinicians. RESULTS: Of 208 participants, 107 (51%) had treated an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patient with a Do Not Attempt Resuscitation order in the past 6 months. Of these, 65 (61%) clinicians used a "slow code" due to perceived futility in resuscitation (42/65 [65%]), unwillingness to terminate resuscitation upon arrival (38/65 [59%]), and absence of family at the time of patient's arrival (35/65 [54%]). Female clinicians had higher emotional stress (5 vs. 3; P = 0.007) and moral distress (3 vs. 2; P = 0.002) than males. Nurses faced more moral distress than physicians (3 vs. 2; P < 0.001). Adjusted logistic regression revealed that having performed a "slow code" (adjusted odds ratio, 5.09 [95% CI, 1.68-17.87]) and having greater ethical concerns about "slow code" (adjusted odds ratio, 0.35 [95% CI, 0.19-0.58]) were associated with high stress levels. CONCLUSIONS: The prevalent use of "slow code" for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients with Do Not Attempt Resuscitation orders underscores the challenges in managing these patients in clinical practice.

BACKGROUND: Gastric inflation caused by excessive ventilation is a common complication of cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Gastric inflation may further compromise ventilation via increases in intrathoracic pressure, leading to decreased venous return and cardiac output, which may impair out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) outcomes. The purpose of this study was to measure the gastric volume of OHCA patients using computed tomography (CT) scan images and evaluate the effect of gastric inflation on return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC). METHODS: In this single-center, retrospective, observational study, CT scan was conducted after ROSC or immediately after death. Total gastric volume was measured. Primary outcome was ROSC. Achievement of ROSC was compared in the gastric distention group and the no gastric distention group; gastric distension was defined as total gastric volume in the ≥75th percentile. Additionally, factors associated with gastric distention were examined. RESULTS: A total of 446 cases were enrolled in the study; 120 cases (27%) achieved ROSC. The median gastric volume was 400 ml for all OHCA subjects; 1068 ml in gastric distention group vs. 287 ml in no gastric distention group. There was no difference in ROSC between the groups (27/112 [24.1%] vs. 93/334 [27.8%], p=0.440). Gastric distention did not have a significant impact, even after adjustments (adjusted odds ratio 0.73, 95% confidence interval [0.42 - 1.29]). Increased gastric volume was associated with longer emergency medical service activity time. CONCLUSIONS: We observed a median gastric volume of 400 ml in patients after OHCA resuscitation. In our setting, gastric distention did not prevent ROSC.

BACKGROUND: Each individual's unique health-related beliefs can greatly impact the patient-clinician relationship. When there is a conflict between the patient's preferences and recommended medical care, it can create a serious ethical dilemma, especially in an emergency setting, and dramatically alter this important relationship. CASE PRESENTATION: A 56-year-old man, who remained comatose after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest, was rushed to our hospital. The patient was scheduled for emergency coronary angiography when his adolescent daughter reported that she and her father held sincere beliefs against radiation exposure. We were concerned that she did not fully understand the potential consequences if her father did not receive the recommended treatment. A physician provided her with in depth information regarding the risks and benefits of the treatment. While we did not want to disregard her statement, we opted to save the patient's life due to concerns about the validity of her report. CONCLUSIONS: Variations in beliefs regarding medical care force clinicians to incorporate patient beliefs into medical practice. However, an emergency may require a completely different approach. When faced with a patient in a life-threatening condition and unconscious, we should take action to prioritize saving their life, unless we are highly certain about the validity of their advance directives.

BACKGROUND: Sudden loss of consciousness as a result of cardiac arrest can cause severe traumatic head injury. Collapse-related traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (CRTIH) following out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) may be linked to poor neurological outcomes; however, there is a paucity of data on this entity. This study aimed to investigate the frequency, characteristics, and outcomes of CRTIH following OHCA. METHODS: Adult patients treated post-OHCA at 5 intensive care units who had head computed tomography (CT) scans were included in the study. CRTIH following OHCA was defined as a traumatic intracranial injury from collapse due to sudden loss of consciousness associated with OHCA. Patients with and without CRTIH were compared. The primary outcome assessed was the frequency of CRTIH following OHCA. Additionally, the clinical features, management, and consequences of CRTIH were analyzed descriptively. RESULTS: CRTIH following OHCA was observed in 8 of 345 enrolled patients (2.3%). CRTIH was more frequent after collapse outside the home, from a standing position, or due to cardiac arrest with a cardiac etiology. Intracranial hematoma expansion on follow up CT was seen in 2 patients; both received anticoagulant therapy, and one required surgical evacuation. Three patients (37.5%) with CRTIH had favorable neurological outcomes 28 days after collapse. CONCLUSIONS: Despite its rare occurrence, physicians should pay special attention to CRTIH following OHCA during the post-resuscitation care period. Larger prospective studies are warranted to provide a more explicit picture of this clinical condition.

BACKGROUND: Until recently, calls to the emergency medical service (EMS) from landline phones, which display the caller's exact location at the dispatch center, had been common. Since the use of mobile phones has become widespread, many emergency calls are now made from mobile phones. Differences in outcomes of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients for whom EMS was called from mobile versus landline phones has not yet been fully elucidated. METHODS: We performed a retrospective, population-based analysis in Kobe, Japan to examine whether EMS calls from mobiles improved the prognosis of OHCA patients over EMS calls placed from landlines. The primary outcome was favorable neurological outcome, defined as Cerebral Performance Category (CPC) scores of 1 or 2 at discharge. Secondary outcomes were survival at one-month, survival at discharge, and time durations between call and EMS activities. RESULTS: Of 4,231 OHCA cases, 2,194 cases (706 landline cases vs. 1,488 mobile cases) were included in this study. The percentages of favorable neurological outcomes were 0.7% (5/706) in the landline group and 3.8% (56/1,488) in the mobile group. Adjusted multivariable logistic regression revealed that favorable neurological outcomes (odds ratio [OR] 3.03, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.12-8.17, p = 0.03) were better in the mobile group, while one-month survival (OR 1.30, 95% CI 0.80-2.14, p = 0.29) was not significantly different. Bystander CPR was more frequently administered in the mobile group (landlines 61.3% vs. mobiles 68.4%, p < 0.01). Time durations between call to EMS dispatch (184.5 [IQR 157-220 s] vs. 205 [IQR 174-248 s], p < 0.01) and EMS arrival (476.5 [IQR 377-599 s] vs. 491 [IQR 407.5-611.5 s], p < 0.01) were shorter in the landline group. CONCLUSIONS: Although the landline caller location display system seems effective for shorter times between EMS call and EMS arrival, mobile phone use was associated with better neurological outcomes.

Intramural esophageal dissection (IED), characterized by bleeding into the submucosal space, leads to mucosal separation and dissection. The most prevalent symptoms are sudden chest or retrosternal pain, hematemesis, and dysphagia. Therefore, acute coronary syndrome and aortic dissection are among its most notable differential diagnoses. A 31-year-old pregnant woman presented with acute chest pain, laryngeal discomfort, and hematemesis. Emergency esophagogastroscopy revealed longitudinal mucosal dissection (upper esophagus to esophagogastric junction). The patient was successfully treated by avoiding the ingestion of solid foods. Clinicians should consider a diagnosis of IED for pregnant patients with acute chest pain, especially if hematemesis is present.
