    • Bradykinin-Induced Shock Increase Exhaled Nitric Oxide, Complement Activation and Cytokine Production in Pigs 

      Seip, Knut Fredrik; Evjenth, Bjørg; Hovland, Anders; Dybwik, Knut Gustav; Johansen, Harald Thidemann; Fure, Hilde; Mollnes, Tom Eirik; Nielsen, Erik Waage (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2016-03-04)
      Bradykinin is an important mediator in blood pressure regulation, ischemic precondition and capillary leakage, allergy, anaphylaxis, inflammation, and nociception, at least partly via the generation of nitric oxide (NO). Macrophages are particularly abundant in the porcine lung circulation. Upon bradykinin binding macrophages release cytokines and endothelial ...

    • Combined inhibition of C5 and CD14 efficiently attenuated the inflammatory response in a porcine model of meningococcal sepsis 

      Hellerud, Bernt C; Orrem, Hilde L.; Dybwik, Knut Gustav; Pischke, Søren Erik; Barratt-Due, Andreas; Castellheim, Albert; Fure, Hilde; Bergseth, Grete; Christiansen, Dorte; Nunn, Miles A.; Espevik, Terje; Lau, Corinna; Brandtzæg, Petter; Nielsen, Erik Waage; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-02-27)
      Background<br> Fulminant meningococcal sepsis, characterized by overwhelming innate immune activation, mostly affects young people and causes high mortality. This study aimed to investigate the effect of targeting two key molecules of innate immunity, complement component C5, and co-receptor CD14 in the Toll-like receptor system, on the inflammatory response in meningococcal sepsis.<p> Methods ...

    • Intraosseous fluid resuscitation causes systemic fat emboli in a porcine hemorrhagic shock model 

      Kristiansen, Steinar; Storm, Benjamin; Dahle, Dalia; Josefsen, Terje D.; Dybwik, Knut Gustav; Nilsen, Bent Aksel; Nielsen, Erik Waage (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-20)
      Background: Intraosseous cannulation can be life-saving when intravenous access cannot be readily achieved. However, it has been shown that the procedure may cause fat emboli to the lungs and brain. Fat embolization may cause serious respiratory failure and fat embolism syndrome. We investigated whether intraosseous fluid resuscitation in pigs in hemorrhagic shock caused pulmonary or systemic ...

    • Open chest and pericardium facilitate transpulmonary passage of venous air emboli 

      Storm, Benjamin; Halvorsen, Per Steinar; Skulstad, Helge; Dybwik, Knut Gustav; Schjalm, Camilla; Christiansen, Dorte; Wisløff-Aase, Kristin; Fosse, Erik; Braaten, Tonje Bjørndal; Nielsen, Erik Waage; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-02-17)
      <p><i>Background:</i> Transpulmonary passage of air emboli can lead to fatal brain- and myocardial infarctions. We studied whether pigs with open chest and pericardium had a greater transpulmonary passage of venous air emboli than pigs with closed thorax. <p><i>Methods:</i> We allocated pigs with verified closed foramen ovale to venous air infusion with either open chest with sternotomy and opening ...

    • A successful new method for single left lobe recruitment 

      Dybwik, Knut Gustav; Nielsen, Erik Waage (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-10-18)
      Any gas will flow down the path of least resistance and highest compliance. This is a problem in the treatment of severe unilateral lung disease in the intensive care unit (ICU). Deep sedation interferes with the diaphragm’s ability to distribute air into the lower lung. Spontaneous breathing in a conscious patient, in combination with mechanical ventilation via an endotracheal tube inserted into ...

    • Venous Air Embolism Activates Complement C3 Without Corresponding C5 Activation and Trigger Thromboinflammation in Pigs 

      Storm, Benjamin; Ludviksen, Judith K; Christiansen, Dorte; Fure, Hilde; Pettersen, Kristin; Landsem, Anne; Nilsen, Bent Aksel; Dybwik, Knut Gustav; Braaten, Tonje; Nielsen, Erik Waage; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-03-15)
      Introduction: Air embolism may complicate invasive medical procedures. Bubbles trigger complement C3-mediated cytokine release, coagulation, and platelet activation in vitro in human whole blood. Since these findings have not been verified in vivo, we aimed to examine the effects of air embolism in pigs on thromboinflammation.<p> <p>Methods: Forty-five landrace pigs, average 17 kg (range 8.5-30), ...
