Association between muscular tissue desaturation and acute kidney injury in older patients undergoing major abdominal surgery: a prospective cohort study.
Present study was designed to investigate the association between muscular tissue desaturation and acute kidney injury (AKI) in older patients undergoing major abdominal surgery. ⋯ Muscular desaturation was associated with postoperative AKI in older patients undergoing major abdominal surgery which may serve as a predictor of AKI.

The combination of hydrogen gas and hydrogen-rich solution does not protect against ischemic spinal cord injury in rabbits.
This study aimed to determine whether the combination of H2 gas inhalation and administration of hydrogen-rich acetated Ringer's solution (HS) could protect against ischemic spinal cord injury in rabbits. ⋯ These results suggest that the combination of 1.2% H2 gas inhalation and administration of a hydrogen-rich solution does not protect against ischemic spinal cord injury and that the increase in H2 concentration in spinal cord tissue after administration of HS is very low compared to 1.2% H2 gas inhalation.
