The study investigates the early changes in cerebral metabolism after perinatal hypoxia-ischemia (HI) in piglets, comparing normothermic conditions with therapeutic hypothermia (TH) treatment. It was found that normothermic piglets showed a progressive secondary deterioration with an increase in markers of cell lysis, such as glycerol, while intracerebral blood flow, pressure, and oxygenation remained unaffected during this secondary increase. Therapeutic hypothermia appeared to prevent the secondary increase in glycerol concentration and resulted in lower intracerebral pressure, glucose accumulation, and lower levels of extracellular lactate. The study suggests that TH may have neuroprotective effects by interfering with pathophysiological mechanisms of HI and could potentially extend the window for other neuroprotective interventions.
