ReviewSubcellular Energetics and Metabolism: Potential Therapeutic Applications.
Part I of this review discussed the similarities between embryogenesis, mammalian adaptions to hypoxia (primarily driven by hypoxia-inducible factor-1 [HIF-1]), ischemia-reperfusion injury (and its relationship with reactive oxygen species), hibernation, diving animals, cancer, and sepsis, and it focused on the common characteristics that allow cells and organisms to survive in these states. Part II of this review describes techniques by which researchers gain insight into subcellular energetics and identify potential future tools for clinicians. In particular, P nuclear magnetic resonance to measure high-energy phosphates, serum lactate measurements, the use of near-infrared spectroscopy to measure the oxidation state of cytochrome aa3, and the ability of the protoporphyrin IX-triplet state lifetime technique to measure mitochondrial oxygen tension are discussed. In addition, this review discusses novel treatment strategies such as hyperbaric oxygen, preconditioning, exercise training, therapeutic gases, as well as inhibitors of HIF-1, HIF prolyl hydroxylase, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors.

Comparative Study Clinical TrialInfluence of Fraction of Inspired Oxygen on Noninvasive Hemoglobin Measurement: Parallel Assessment of 2 Monitors.
Previous reports have brought specific attention to the relationship between oxygenation of the patient and the accuracy of noninvasive measurement of hemoglobin (Hb) using an optical sensor. This study aimed to assess prospectively the relationship between fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) and the bias of the measurement of Hb by the use of 2 different noninvasive monitors compared with the classic invasive technique. ⋯ This study showed that noninvasive measurement of Hb could be influenced by inspired fraction of oxygen when the monitor NBM-200MP is used.
