    ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of myocardial glucose metabolism in rabbit cardiac arrest models and the effect of hydrogen intervention by 18F-fluroro-2-deoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging.
 Methods: Fifteen male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into a hydrogen group (n=6), a control group (n=6) and a sham group (n=3). Cardiac arrest (CA) was induced by intravenous injection of potassium chloride. Conventional cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) was initiated after five-minutes CA. The hydrogen group and the control group were mechanically ventilated into mixed gas with 4% hydrogen+96% oxygen and pure oxygen, respectively, for 30 minutes after CPR. Rats in the sham group was performed the same surgical procedure and was injected adrenaline and potassium chloride but did not induce CA. The vital signs at basic state and 30 min after return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) were recorded in each group. The parameters of CPR were recorded in two CA groups. Myocardial glucose metabolism was assessed by positron emission tomography (PET) at basic state, 2 h and 24 h after ROSC. The maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of 18F-FDG was measured.
 Results: There were no significant differences in the basal body weight and vital signs among the three groups. There was no significant difference in the blood glucose level before PET examination. The 18F-FDG SUVmax in the sham group at three time points was not significantly changed. In the hydrogen group and the control group, the 18F-FDG SUVmax at 2 h after ROSC were significantly higher than the basic level (1.89±0.47 vs 3.47±1.24 and 1.90±0.36 vs 4.26±0.80, respectively). Compared with the control group, the 18F-FDG SUVmax in the hydrogen group was lower at the point at 2 h after ROSC. The 18F-FDG SUVmax in the 2 CA group were down to the basic level at 24 h after ROSC (hydrogen group 2.02±0.64, control group 2.07±0.61).
 Conclusion: Myocardial glucose metabolism in CA rabbits was increased significantly after ROSC, and hydrogen intervention can reduce the degree of glucose metabolism.
