Then, 18 h after the operation, a hypodynamic stage of sepsis [27 (link)], the cardiac function of rats was assayed. After anesthesia by 3% isoflurane inhalation, the LVs were intubated via the right common carotid artery by a catheter filled with heparin saline (500 U/ml) to measure mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) and LV pressure. Left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP), and maximum rise/fall rate of LV pressure (±dp/dtmax) were recorded by the PowerLab Data Acquisition and Analysis System (ADInstruments, Australia).

Heating-Induced Systolic Blood Pressure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The rats in the experimental group were placed in a folded heating blanket, with the temperature set to 40°C. A towel was placed between the animals and the warm blanket to avoid burns. The core temperature (represented by the rectal temperature) was monitored by the PowerLab Data Acquisition and Analysis System (AD Instruments, Shanghai, China) every 5 min. The point at which the systolic blood pressure (represented by the caudal artery systolic pressure) decreased from its peak value was taken as the onset of HS. The rats were removed immediately from the heating blanket and returned to room temperature (25°C).

The cardiac function of rats was measured at the end of reperfusion. The left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP) and left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) were detected using the PowerLab Data Acquisition and Analysis System (ADInstruments, Australia). The fractional shortening (FS) and ejection fraction (EF) were detected using HD15 Color Doppler Ultrasound Diagnostic System (Phillips, Netherlands). The specific operations were carried out in accordance with the instructions of instruments

The thyrotoxicosis rat model was induced by daily intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of levothyroxine (T4, 100 µg/kg/day) for 28 days35 (link).
Sixty adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four equal groups of 15: (I) a Control group receiving corn oil vehicle (2 mL/kg/day; p.o.), (II) a cardiac hyperthyroid (CH) group receiving T4 (100 µg/kg/day, i.p.) plus corn oil (2 mL/kg/day, p.o.), (III) a cardiac hyperthyroid plus sacubitril/valsartan (CH + LCZ696) group receiving T4 (100 µg/kg/day, i.p.) for 28 days followed by LCZ696 (60 mg/kg/day) for 14 days, and (IV) a cardiac hyperthyroid plus valsartan group (CH + VAL) receiving T4 (100 µg/kg/day, i.p.) for 28 days15 (link) followed by valsartan (30 mg/kg/day) for 14 days13 (link).
At the end of the treatment period, animals were weighed using an electronic balance (BXX 40; BOECO, Germany) and then anesthetized. Hemodynamic parameters were measured under anesthesia using the Power Lab data acquisition and analysis system (AD Instruments, Australia). The thorax was then opened and the heart rapidly removed, weighed, and processed for molecular, histological, or biochemical assessments as described.

Measuring Right Ventricular Pressure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
RVSP equals to pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) when the right ventricular outflow obstruction is absent according to the modified Bernoulli equation. RVSP was measured by inserting an eight-gauge needle with high-fidelity pressure transducer to right ventricle. The value of RVSP was recorded and analyzed by Power Lab Data Acquisition and Analysis System (PL 3504, AD Instruments, Australia). RVHI is identical to right ventricle over the sum of left ventricle plus septum (RV/LV + S) according to the Fulton index measurement.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
