Postresuscitation Administration of Doxycycline Preserves Cardiac Contractile Function in Hypoxia-Reoxygenation Injury of Newborn Piglets*
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Cardiac injury is common in asphyxiated neonates and is associated with matrix metalloproteinase-2 activation. Although studies have demonstrated the cardioprotective effects of matrix metalloproteinase inhibition, this has not been tested in clinically translatable models of hypoxia-reoxygenation injury. We aimed to elucidate the effect of doxycycline, a matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor, on cardiac injury and functional recovery in a swine model of neonatal hypoxia-reoxygenation. DESIGN: Thirty-three newborn piglets were acutely instrumented for continuous monitoring of cardiac output and systemic arterial pressure. After stabilization, normocapnic alveolar hypoxia (10-15% oxygen) was instituted for 2 hours followed by 4 hours of normoxic reoxygenation. Piglets were blindly, block randomized to receive IV boluses of normal saline (control) and doxycycline at 5 minutes of reoxygenation (n = 7/group). Sham-operated piglets (n = 5) received no hypoxia-reoxygenation. Markers of myocardial injury (plasma and myocardial tissue troponin I; myocardial lactate) and oxidative stress (lipid hydroperoxides) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Western blot. Myocardial matrix metalloproteinase-2 activity was quantified by gelatin zymography and immunoprecipitation. SETTING: University animal laboratory. SUBJECTS: Piglets (1-4 d old, weighing 1.4-2.5 kg). INTERVENTIONS: IV doxycycline (3, 10, or 30 mg/kg) given during resuscitation. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Hypoxic piglets had cardiogenic shock (cardiac output 58% ± 1% of baseline), hypotension (systemic arterial pressure 31 ± 1 mm Hg), and acidosis (pH 7.02 ± 0.02). Doxycycline improved cardiac and stroke volume index with no chronotropic effect in doxycycline-treated piglets compared with controls. Systemic arterial pressure was higher and the pulmonary artery pressure/systemic arterial pressure ratio was lower in doxycycline groups, with reduced levels of markers of myocardial injury and oxidative stress in doxycycline-treated piglets compared with controls. Negative correlations were found between markers of myocardial injury (plasma troponin I, myocardial lactate) and functional recovery and between myocardial tissue and plasma troponin I. Doxycycline-treated piglets had lower myocardial matrix metalloproteinase-2 activity compared with controls. CONCLUSIONS: Postresuscitation administration of doxycycline attenuates cardiac injury and improves functional recovery in newborn piglets with hypoxia-reoxygenation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
