Infusion of fructose solution (25 g in 100 ml) in sugar rations of 0.5 g or 1.0 g per kilogram of body weight usually induced in calf temporary drop of glucose in the blood plasma. This was attributable to rise in insulin secretion and glucose conversion or insufficiently fast effectiveness of insulin antagonists (adrenaline, glucagon, glucocorticosteroids). Such glucose drop could not be prevented by administration of 50 mg of prednisolone four hours before fructose infusion and 25 IU of ACTH five hours before infusion. Glucose as well as free fatty acids in the blood plasma went up in response to injection of 2.5 microgram/kg body weight during hypoglycaemia. The action of adrenaline was found to depend on the insulin dose given before in cases of insulin-induced hypoglycaemia. Doses of 0.5 g fructose per kilogram of body weight were administered in nine experimental infusions. Average half-life recorded from the blood plasma was 21.3 +/- 3.4 minutes.  相似文献

Intravenous infusion of 0.5 mmol/kg B.W. to lambs aged eight to 14, 15 to 21, 22 to 28, and 29 to 35 days led to higher blood plasma levels of insulin and total alpha-amino-N. Rises were stronger and longer lasting after infusion of 1.25 mmol/kg B.W. of arginine. Blood plasma levels of glucose and free fatty acids were temporarily decreased in response to infusion. Infusion to lambs aged between eight and 14 days of 0.5 mmol/kg B.W. of glycin did not change insulin, glucose nor free fatty acids, though total alpha-amino-N was very slightly increased for very short time. Infusion of 1.25 mmol/kg B.W. of glycin proved less effective than that of arginine with regard to higher levels of insulin and total alpha-amino-N.  相似文献

Massive dose injections of butyrate, isobutyrate, and isovalerate (1.25 mmol/kg body weight) as well as of physiological saline solutions were applied to 4 groups of lambs aged 8 to 15, 16 to 22, 23 to 29, and 30 to 45 days. Blood samples were drawn prior to infusion as well as 5, 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 minutes from mid-infusion. Original glucose and insulin levels in the blood plasma of 87 lambs had been 5.24 +/- 0.85 mmol/l or 191 +/- 106 pmol/l, respectively. Infusion of these solutions led to temporary rise in blood plasma levels of glucose, insulin, and free fatty acids. The highest insulin level increase resulted from isovalerate infusion. Total alpha amino nitrogen in blood plasma went down. It appeared to be obvious that lambs, even before their forestomachs came into action, responded to infusion of volatile fatty acids by increase in insulin secretion.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of epsilon-aminocaproic acid (EACA), including the effects of EACA on coagulation and fibrinolysis in healthy horses. ANIMALS: 6 adult horses. PROCEDURES: Each horse received 3.5 mg of EACA/kg/min for 20 minutes, i.v. Plasma EACA concentration was measured before (time 0), during, and after infusion. Coagulation variables and plasma alpha(2)-antiplasmin activity were evaluated at time 0 and 4 hours after infusion; viscoelastic properties of clot formation were assessed at time 0 and 0.5, 1, and 4 hours after infusion. Plasma concentration versus time data were evaluated by use of a pharmacokinetic analysis computer program. RESULTS: Drug disposition was best described by a 2-compartment model with a rapid distribution phase, an elimination half-life of 2.3 hours, and mean residence time of 2.5 +/- 0.5 hours. Peak plasma EACA concentration was 462.9 +/- 70.1 microg/mL; after the end of the infusion, EACA concentration remained greater than the proposed therapeutic concentration (130 microg/mL) for 1 hour. Compared with findings at 0 minutes, EACA administration resulted in no significant change in plasma alpha(2)-antiplasmin activity at 1 or 4 hours after infusion. Thirty minutes after infusion, platelet function was significantly different from that at time 0 and 1 and 4 hours after infusion. The continuous rate infusion that would maintain proposed therapeutic plasma concentrations of EACA was predicted (ie, 3.5 mg/kg/min for 15 minutes, then 0.25 mg/kg/min). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results suggest that EACA has potential clinical use in horses for which improved clot maintenance is desired.  相似文献

The effect of xylazine and xylazine followed 20 minutes later by insulin upon glucose metabolism and plasma insulin concentrations was examined in three cows. After doses of 0.18 mg per kg xylazine given intramuscularly (IM) or 0.15 mg per kg given intravenously (IV) hepatic glucose production increased, plasma insulin concentrations decreased to 25 to 33 per cent of control values, and there was a prolonged hyperglycaemia. When 200 units of soluble insulin were given 20 minutes after similar doses of xylazine there was a rapid fall in blood glucose and a reduction in the rate of glucose production by the liver. Xylazine-induced hyperglycaemia arose from a combination of increased hepatic glucose production and reduced plasma insulin concentrations. Peripheral tissues were still responsive to insulin and when adequate insulin was available blood glucose concentrations rapidly decreased.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of exogenous insulin on clearance of exogenous glucose in alpacas. ANIMALS: 7 adult castrated male alpacas. PROCEDURE: Prior to each of 2 trials, food was withheld for 8 hours. Glucose (0.5 g/kg of body weight) was then administered by rapid IV infusion. During 1 of the trials, regular insulin (0.2 U/kg, IV) was also administered 15 minutes later. Blood was collected immediately before (0 minutes) and 15, 20, 25, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180, and 240 minutes after glucose administration. Plasma concentrations of glucose and lactate were determined, and glucose fractional turnover rate and plasma half-life were calculated. RESULTS: Insulin treatment caused a significant increase in fractional turnover rate of glucose and plasma lactate concentration. Plasma glucose concentrations were less in insulin-treated alpacas from 30 minutes after glucose administration (15 minutes after insulin administration) until the conclusion of each trial, compared with nontreated alpacas. In addition, plasma glucose concentration in insulin-treated alpacas returned to baseline values 1 hour sooner than in the nontreated group. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Glucose uptake in alpacas improves after insulin treatment, suggesting that administration of exogenous insulin will increase the therapeutic and decrease the pathologic effects of exogenous glucose administered to hypoglycemic alpacas. However, alpacas and other New World camelids should be monitored carefully during treatment with glucose or insulin, because these species appear to be partially insulin resistant.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to describe the pharmacokinetics of bromide in horses and to evaluate the corrected bromide space as an indicator of extracellular fluid volume (ECFV) in horses after the administration of a single dose of bromide by intravenous infusion. Sodium bromide (30 mg/kg of body weight, IV) was administered to 6 clinically healthy mares over a period of 3 minutes. Blood samples were collected before infusion and at intervals between 0.5 hours and 53 days after infusion. Mean elimination half-life (harmonic mean) was 126 hours (5.2 days), clearance was 1.4 +/- 0.09 mL/(kg x h), area under the curve was 17,520 +/- 1,100 microg x h/mL. and volume of distribution (steady state) was 0.255 +/- 0.015 L/kg. The mean corrected bromide space was determined from the volume of distribution (steady state) and the serum concentrations of bromide at equilibration. Corrected bromide space, an estimate of ECFV, was 0.218 +/- 0.01 L/kg. The conclusion was made that ECFV of horses can be estimated by measuring bromide concentrations in a preinfusion serum sample and a sample obtained 5 hours after the administration of bromide.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the effect of general anesthesia and minor surgery on renal function in horses. ANIMALS: 9 mares with a mean (+/- SE) age and body weight of 9+/-2 years and 492+/-17 kg, respectively. PROCEDURE: The day before anesthesia, urine was collected (catheterization) for 3 hours to quantitate baseline values, and serum biochemical analysis was performed. The following day, xylazine (1.1 mg/kg, IV) was administered, and general anesthesia was induced 5 minutes later with diazepam (0.04 mg/kg, IV) and ketamine (2.2 mg/kg, IV). During 2 hours of anesthesia with isoflurane, Paco2 was maintained between 48 and 52 mm Hg, and mean arterial blood pressure was between 70 and 80 mm Hg. Blood and urine were collected at 30, 60, and 120 minutes during and at 1 hour after anesthesia. RESULTS: Baseline urine flow was 0.92+/-0.17 ml/kg/h and significantly increased at 30 and 60 minutes after xylazine administration (2.14+/-0.59 and 2.86+/-0.97 ml/kg/h respectively) but returned to baseline values by the end of anesthesia. Serum glucose concentration increased from 12+/-4 to 167+/-8 mg/dl at 30 minutes. Glucosuria was not observed. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Transient hyperglycemia and an increase in rine production accompanies a commonly used anesthetic technique for horses. The increase in urine flow is not trivial and should be considered in anesthetic management decisions. With the exception of serum glucose concentration and urine production, the effect of general anesthesia on indices of renal function in clinically normal horses is likely of little consequence in most horses admitted for elective surgical procedures.  相似文献

A 3 h fast of suckling pigs less than a week of age decreased plasma glucose (P less than .005), but did not affect plasma protein, osmolality or hematocrit. After fasting, solutions (40 ml/kg body weight) of 5% glucose, 5% fructose, 5% xylose, 5% mannitol, 5% sorbitol, 2.5% leucine, 2.5% phenylalanine (50 ml/kg), .9% NaCl, 5% lactose, 5% sucrose and a 50% egg yolk-distilled water mixture were administered by stomach tube and the piglet then returned to the sow. Weight gain was used as a measure of sow's milk intake. Milk consumption during the first 3 h after fasting was lower (P less than .05) for pigs given glucose than for sham-loaded controls, but no differences were observed between glucose and mannitol or sorbitol for the same period. Mannitol and sorbitol were more effective than NaCl (P less than .01) in lowering consumption for the 3 h after loading. Also during the first hour after loading, xylose caused lower (P less than .001) food intake than glucose. Egg yolk suppressed intake in comparison to sham-loaded controls (P less than .05). D-phenylalanine suppressed intake more than L-phenylalanine (P less than .05), but no differences were observed between the D and L isomers of leucine.  相似文献

Detomidine (10 micrograms/kg and 20 micrograms/kg) was administered to seven horses with and without epinephrine infusion (0.1 microgram/kg/min) from 5 minutes before to 5 minutes after detomidine injection. One or more single supraventricular premature heartbeats were observed in three horses after detomidine administration. Epinephrine infusion did not modify the incidence of cardiac arrhythmias in detomidine-treated horses at the doses tested. Relatively high momentary peak systolic pressures were registered in some horses after detomidine administration during epinephrine infusion. The highest systolic arterial blood pressure was 290 mm Hg, but this value was not higher than that reported in horses during maximum physical exercise. Epinephrine infusion did not alter blood gases, arterial pH, or base excess.  相似文献

Lateral cecal arterial blood flow, carotid arterial pressure, heart rate, and mechanical activity of the circular and longitudinal muscle layers of the cecal body were measured in 7 conscious healthy horses during IV infusion of physiologic saline solution for 60 minutes (control), during a 60-minute IV infusion of dopamine (at dosages of 1, 2.5, and 5 micrograms/kg/min), and for 60 minutes after IV infusion of dopamine. The mean values for lateral cecal arterial blood flow during IV infusion of dopamine at a dosage of either 1 or 2.5 micrograms/kg/min were not significantly different from the mean values for lateral cecal arterial blood flow during IV infusion of saline solution. The mean values for lateral cecal arterial blood flow, however, were significantly greater during IV infusion of dopamine at a dosage of 5 micrograms/kg/min than the mean values for lateral cecal arterial blood flow during IV infusion of saline solution. Intravenous infusion of dopamine at 1 and 2.5 micrograms/kg/min did not significantly change the mean values for carotid arterial pressure. In contrast, the mean values for carotid arterial pressure were significantly less during IV infusion of dopamine at dosages of 2.5 and 5 micrograms/kg/min than during infusion of saline solution. The mean values for heart rate were not significantly altered by infusion of dopamine at a dosage of either 1 or 2.5 micrograms/kg/min, but infusion of dopamine at a dosage of 5 micrograms/kg/min significantly increased heart rate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Xylazine and remifentanil in constant rate infusion (CRI) could be used for sedation in horses without adverse effects. The objective was to evaluate behavioral and cardiopulmonary effects of an intravenous (IV) infusion of xylazine and remifentanil for sedation in horses. Xylazine (0.8 mg/kg IV) followed after 3 minutes by a CRI of xylazine and remifentanil (0.65 mg/kg/h and 6 μg/kg/h, respectively) was administered in 10 healthy horses for 60 minutes. Sedation, ataxia, and cardiopulmonary, hematological, and blood gases variables were evaluated. Heart rate decreased significantly during the first 25 minutes after CRI of xylazine and remifentanil, whereas the respiratory rate showed a significant decrease at 20 minutes and remained significantly low until the endpoint. There were no statistically significant fluctuations in blood arterial pressure, blood pH, partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide, lactate, creatinine, calcium, chlorine, and sodium, compared with baseline values. Blood partial pressure of arterial oxygen and bicarbonate values were significantly higher compared with baseline values, whereas potassium decreased. Sedation and ataxia developed immediately after the administration of xylazine in all horses. All horses recovered successfully within 10 minutes after interruption of the CRI of xylazine and remifentanil, with no ataxia. No adverse effects were observed. The use of a combination of xylazine and remifentanil as sedation protocol has no adverse effects at the described dosage.  相似文献

The effects of treatment with small volume hypertonic (2400 mOsm/litre) and isotonic (300 mOsm/litre) saline on serum electrolyte and biochemical concentrations, haemograms and blood gases were evaluated in 12 horses using a haemorrhagic shock model. Intravascular catheters were placed surgically for sample collection prior to anaesthesia. Controlled haemorrhage was initiated and continued until mean systemic pressure reached 50 to 60 mmHg. Hypertonic or isotonic saline (2 litres) was administered by intravenous infusion and data collected for 2 h. Following haemorrhage, packed cell volume (PCV), haemoglobin, blood glucose concentrations and erythrocyte numbers increased whereas plasma total protein and albumin concentrations decreased. Infusion of hypertonic saline resulted in a further decrease in total protein and albumin concentrations. Glucose concentrations and other haematological variables were unaffected. Isotonic saline administration did not affect electrolyte, total protein or albumin concentrations. Concentrations of sodium and chloride were unaffected by hypotension but increased significantly following hypertonic saline treatment, exceeding normal values during the immediate post treatment period. Serum osmolality increased concurrently. No significant changes in arterial and venous blood gas values were observed with haemorrhage or isotonic saline treatment. A transient decrease in arterial and venous blood pH and a sustained decrease in venous bicarbonate and base excess concentrations occurred following hypertonic saline administration. No significant increases in any serum biochemical concentrations occurred during hypotension or following infusion of either isotonic or hypertonic saline. These results demonstrate that small volume hypertonic saline can be administered safely to horses without producing extreme changes in electrolyte concentrations, blood gases or haematological parameters.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare obese horses with insulin resistance (IR) with nonobese horses and determine whether blood resting glucose, insulin, leptin, and lipid concentrations differed between groups and were correlated with combined glucose-insulin test (CGIT) results. ANIMALS: 7 obese adult horses with IR (OB-IR group) and 5 nonobese mares. PROCEDURES: Physical measurements were taken, and blood samples were collected after horses had acclimated to the hospital for 3 days. Response to insulin was assessed by use of the CGIT, and maintenance of plasma glucose concentrations greater than the preinjection value for > or = 45 minutes was used to define IR. Area under the curve values for glucose (AUC(g)) and insulin (AUC(i)) concentrations were calculated. RESULTS: Morgan, Paso Fino, Quarter Horse, and Tennessee Walking Horse breeds were represented in the OB-IR group. Mean neck circumference and BCS differed significantly between groups and were positively correlated with AUC values. Resting insulin and leptin concentrations were 6 and 14 times as high, respectively, in the OB-IR group, compared with the nonobese group, and were significantly correlated with AUC(g) and AUC(i). Plasma nonesterified fatty acid, very low-density lipoprotein, and high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) concentrations were significantly higher (86%, 104%, and 29%, respectively) in OB-IR horses, and HDL-C concentrations were positively correlated with AUC values. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Measurements of neck circumference and resting insulin and leptin concentrations can be used to screen obese horses for IR. Dyslipidemia is associated with IR in obese horses.  相似文献

Lateral cecal arterial blood flow, carotid arterial pressure, heart rate, and mechanical activity in the duodenum, right ventral colon, cecal body, and cecal apex were measured in 6 conscious healthy horses for 60 minutes during and for 120 minutes after IV infusion of 0.9% NaCl solution (control) or fenoldopam. There were no significant changes in these measurements during or after infusion of 0.9% NaCl (saline) solution. Fenoldopam, a selective dopamine-1 receptor agonist, was administered in saline solution at dosages of 0.01, 0.05, and 0.1 micrograms/kg/min. Intravenous infusion of fenoldopam at 0.01 microgram/kg/min significantly increased heart rate, but did not change average carotid arterial pressure or lateral cecal arterial blood flow. Intravenous infusion of fenoldopam at both 0.05 and 0.1 microgram/kg/min significantly increased heart rate, significantly decreased average carotid arterial pressure, and significantly increased lateral cecal arterial blood flow. Intravenous infusion of fenoldopam at 0.01, 0.05, and 0.1 microgram/kg/min did not significantly change the mechanical activity measured by the area under the strain gauge deflection curve for the duodenum, right ventral colon, cecal body, or cecal apex. These results suggest that dopaminergic-1 receptors are present on the colonic vasculature of horses. There was no evidence, however, that dopaminergic-1 receptors exist on the visceral smooth muscle of the duodenum, right ventral colon, cecal body, or cecal apex of horses.  相似文献

Pentoxifylline (7.5 mg/kg) was bolused intravenously to eight healthy horses and was immediately followed by infusion (1.5 mg/kg/h) for 3 h. Clinical parameters were recorded and blood samples were collected for 24 h. Plasma was separated and concentrations of pentoxifylline, its reduced metabolite I, and 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α were determined. Heparinized whole blood was also incubated ex vivo with 1 ng Escherichi coli endotoxin/mL blood for 6 h before determination of plasma tumour necrosis factor activity. The peak plasma concentrations of pentoxifylline and metabolite I occurred at 15 min after bolus injection and were 9.2± 1.4 and 7.8± 4.3 μg/mL, respectively. The half-life of elimination ( t ½β) of pentoxifylline was 1.44 h and volume of distribution ( V darea) was 0.94 L/kg. The mean plasma concentration of 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α increased over time, with a significant increase occurring 30 min after the bolus administration. Ex vivo plasma endotoxin-induced tumour necrosis factor activity was significantly decreased at 1.5 and 3 h of infusion. These results indicate that infusion of pentoxifylline will increase 6-keto-prostaglandin F1α and significantly suppress endotoxin-induced tumour necrosis factor activity in horses during the period of infusion.  相似文献

Selected metabolites, hormones and cardiovascular variables were measured in halothane anesthetized horses during 1 hour of dopamine infusion at a rate of 5 μg/kg/min (low) and 10 μg/kg/min (high), and for 1 hour after infusion. Plasma Cortisol increased twofold in the low-infusion group but did not change significantly in the high-infusion group. Plasma nonesterified fatty acids, blood glucose, blood lactate, and plasma insulin increased in the high-infusion group. There was little difference in heart rate, systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial blood pressure between the two groups. The high infusion was associated with arrhythmias in several horses, and one horse showed ventricular fibrillation and died. If metabolic and hormonal changes are used as markers of a "stress response" in anesthetized horses the results must be carefully interpreted if a sympathomimetic agent such as dopamine is administered to maintain cardiovascular stability.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To characterize the plasma pharmacokinetics and clinical effects of pirfenidone administered IV in healthy horses. ANIMALS: 6 adult horses. PROCEDURES: A 15 mg/kg dose of pirfenidone was administered IV over 5 minutes. Physical variables were recorded and blood samples collected prior to infusion; 2.5 minutes after beginning infusion; at the end of infusion; and at 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 60, 75, and 90 minutes and 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24 hours after completion of infusion. Plasma concentrations of pirfenidone and its metabolites were determined. RESULTS: Mild clinical effects, including tachycardia and muscle fasciculations, were observed during drug administration but stopped at the end of the infusion. Pirfenidone and 2 metabolites, hydroxypirfenidone and carboxypirfenidone, were detected by the end of the 5-minute infusion. Mean peak plasma concentration of pirfenidone was 182.5 micromol/L, detected at the end of the infusion. Mean peak plasma concentrations of hydroxypirfenidone and carboxypirfenidone were 1.07 and 3.4 micromol/L, respectively, at 40 minutes after infusion. No parent drug or metabolites were detected at 24 hours. Distribution of pirfenidone best fit a 2-compartment model, and the drug had mean +/- SEM elimination half-life of 86.0 +/- 4.7 minutes, mean body clearance of 6.54 +/- 0.45 mL/kg/min, and apparent volume of distribution at steady state of 0.791 +/- 0.056 L/kg. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Intravenous administration of pirfenidone was tolerated with transient adverse affects during infusion, and drug clearance was rapid.  相似文献

Anesthetized pigs were infused sequentially with increased concentrations of beta-adrenergic agonists. At selected times during infusion, blood pressure, heart rate and plasma concentrations of free fatty acids (FFA), glycerol, glucose, lactate, norepinephrine, epinephrine and dopamine were measured. Azaperone, a drug used to calm the pigs before anesthesia, caused hypotension and bradycardia but did not affect plasma metabolites. Infusion of norepinephrine, epinephrine, isoproterenol or clenbuterol produced changes in plasma metabolites and plasma catecholamines. These changes during norepinephrine infusion were attributed to the infused agonist, whereas those during epinephrine infusion might have resulted to some extent from release of norepinephrine. Plasma isoproterenol was not quantified because it interfered with the assay of epinephrine and dopamine so that it was not possible to distinguish between infused isoproterenol and release of endogenous epinephrine and dopamine. Infusion of clenbuterol caused a small increase in plasma norepinephrine so that some of the increase in plasma FFA, glycerol and lactate during clenbuterol infusion may result from release of endogenous norepinephrine.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of two different carbohydrate sources (fructose and glucose) on the metabolic responses in resting and exercising horses. The following regimes were fed in randomized order to five trained horses at rest and immediately before or during exercise. The resting regime comprised 0.6 kg grass meal pellets (control) or 0.6 kg grass meal pellets supplemented with either 50% glucose or 50% fructose. The exercise regime comprised 0.3 kg grass meal (control) or 0.6 kg grass meal pellets supplemented with either 50% glucose or 50% fructose fed immediately before or during simulated endurance exercise on a treadmill (30 km, total running time 120 min; 15 min rest after 60 min running time). Blood samples were collected for the analysis of glucose, insulin, free fatty acids (FFA) and lactate. In resting horses, glucose supplementation resulted in a significantly higher glycaemic and insulinaemic response than the control or fructose feedings (treatment P < 0.05). Plasma glucose levels were significantly higher after glucose supplementation given before or during exercise. Similar plasma glucose concentrations were observed after fructose was fed before exercise, whereas fructose supplementation during exercise resulted in a lower glycaemic response than glucose feeding (P < 0.05). Plasma insulin, FFA and lactate levels showed exercise-related changes (time P < 0.05), but treatment did not effect these results. Plasma glucose concentrations were elevated during the simulated endurance exercise after glucose feeding, and no counter-regulation by insulin occurred. The higher glycaemic response might be beneficial as exogenous glucose can be used as an energetic substrate during prolonged exercise. Fructose exhibited no clear advantages in comparison with glucose as a carbohydrate source for exercising horses.  相似文献
