Effect of Modified Ultrafiltration on Cytokines and Hemoconcentration In Dogs Undergoing Cardiopulmonary Bypass

Our results demonstrated that MUF can be applied in dogs undergoing CPB and is effective in achieving hemoconcentration. Moreover, MUF may be useful for the removal of cytokines. Further studies are needed to validate these findings and clarify the effects of inflammatory cytokines after CPB.

Intraoperative Renal Hypoxia and Risk of Cardiac Surgery-Associated Acute Kidney Injury

The disparity between these two markers of renal hypoxia may indicate that UPO2 reflects medullary oxygenation whereas pEPO reflects cortical oxygenation.
