Fluid therapy is indispensable in treating patients with hemorrhagic shock. However, fluid overload correlates with kidney injury in patients with hemorrhagic shock. We hypothesized that hemodilution after fluid treatment contributes to the kidney injury. ⋯ The hemodilution post hemorrhagic shock and fluid resuscitation led to kidney injury.

Irisin and betatrophin are involved in insulin resistance. We investigated the effects of aerobic and resistance exercise (AE/RE) and de-training (cessation of the training after the AE/RE) on betatrophin, irisin and some metabolic factors in rats. ⋯ It seems that RE has greater efficiency than AE in reducing betatrophin level and irisin resistance. However, de-training caused most of the improvements resulting from RE to be lost, but not the improvements resulting from AE.
