Összefoglaló szövege

INTRODUCTION: Despite promising results on cardioprotection elicited by remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) in preclinical models of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI), large clinical trials show no clinical benefit. This translational failure can be due to an incomplete understanding of the factors that may determine or confound RIPC efficacy.
AIMS: To identify these factors, here we systematically reviewed publications on RIPC in rats and assessed cardioprotective efficacy of the commonly applied RIPC protocols in rat models of acute MIRI, conducted at three study centers in Hungary and the Netherlands.
METHODS: Systematic review of 348 publications was performed, and factors of design- and reporting quality were scored. Most commonly used methodologies were identified, and animal study was performed accordingly. Healthy, male, 10-12 week old Wistar rats anesthetized with pentobarbital were subjected to 20, 25, 30, or 45 min occlusion followed by 120 min reperfusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) with or without preceding RIPC with either 3×5-5 min intermittent occlusion/reperfusion of one femoral artery or 4×5-5 min of one or both femoral arteries. RIPC was induced by either clamping the femoral artery and vein, or by a tourniquet, or by using a pressure cuff. As a positive control, we applied local ischemic preconditioning (IPC) by 3×5-5 min LAD occlusion/reperfusion in two study centers. IS, microvascular obstruction (MVO), and MIRI-induced arrhythmias were measured.
RESULTS: Over 50% of the publications reported less than 40% of reporting- and design quality parameters. While IPC significantly decreased IS, MVO, and occurrence of MIRI-induced arrhythmias, none of the investigated RIPC protocols affected these endpoints at any study sites.
CONCLUSION: Although unanimously reporting efficacy, most preclinical RIPC studies in the literature were either poorly designed or reported, therefore, their reproducibility may be questionable and confounding factors cannot be identified. This is the first demonstration of the neutral effect of RIPC on cardioprotection in rats assessed in individually randomized, blinded acute in-vivo studies in three study centers.
