Ischemic Colitis Associated with Rhabdomyolysis and Heat Stroke after an Intense Exercise in Young Adult.
Abstract Ischemic colitis primarily affects the elderly with underlying disease, but it rarely occurs in young adults with risk factors, such as coagulopathy or vascular disorder. Moreover, it is extremely rare in the very young without risk factors. This paper presents a patient with ischemic colitis associated with heat stroke and rhabdomyolysis after intense exercise under high-temperature conditions. A 20-year-old man presented with mental deterioration after a vigorous soccer game for more than 30 minutes in sweltering weather. He also presented with hematochezia with abdominal pain. The laboratory tests reve...

Exertional Heat-Stroke Preparedness in High School Football by Region and State Mandate Presence.
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest a greater use of EHS-preparedness strategies in environmentally warmer regions with state-level mandates for preseason heat acclimatization. Future researchers should identify factors influencing EHS preparedness, particularly in regions 1 and 2 and in states without mandates. PMID: 31454289 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of heat stroke in China
AbstractHeat stroke (HS) is a fatal disease caused by thermal damage in the body, and it has a very high mortality rate. In 2015, the People ’s Liberation Army Professional Committee of Critical Care Medicine published the first expert consensus on HS in China,Expert consensus on standardized diagnosis and treatment for heat stroke. With an increased understanding of HS and new issues that emerged during the HS treatment in China in recent years, the 2015 consensus no longer meet the requirements for HS prevention and treatment. It is necessary to update the consensus to include the latest research evidence and establish...

Optimization of a Rhabdomyolysis Model in Mice With Exertional Heat Stroke Mouse Model of EHS-Rhabdomyolysis
In conclusion, we made improvements to a stable EHS-induced RM animal model to truly reflect the clinical characteristics of EHS patients. This new model should be helpful in the further study of RM pathogenesis.

Overlapping Mechanisms of Exertional Heat Stroke and Malignant Hyperthermia: Evidence vs. Conjecture
AbstractExertional heat stroke (EHS) and malignant hyperthermia (MH) are life-threatening conditions, triggered by different environmental stimuli that share several clinical symptoms and pathophysiological features. EHS manifests during physical activity normally, but not always, in hot and humid environments. MH manifests during exposure to haloalkane anesthetics or succinylcholine, which leads to a rapid, unregulated release of calcium (Ca2+) within the skeletal muscles inducing a positive-feedback loop within the excitation –contraction coupling mechanism that culminates in heat stroke-like symptoms, if not rapidly r...

Heat stroke on the hottest day of the year - Kidane AS, Peters R.
Heat stroke is the most extreme form of heat-related illness. An imbalance between excessive body heat production and inadequate compensatory mechanisms can lead to multi-organ failure and even death. There are two types of heat stroke: exertional heat str...

Protective effect and mechanism of mesenchymal stem cells on heat stroke induced intestinal injury.
Authors: Wang L, Deng Z, Yuan R, Zhao Y, Yang M, Hu J, Zhang Y, Li Y, Zhou F, Kang H Abstract Heat stroke (HS) is considered to be a severe systemic inflammatory reaction disease that is caused by high fever. The mortality of HS is high worldwide due to the lack of effective treatments. Presently, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been demonstrated to serve roles in inflammation and immune regulation. Therefore, the current study aimed to investigate the protective effect and mechanism of MSCs against the HS-induced inflammatory response and organ dysfunction. A rat model of HS was induced by a high-temperature en...

Perceptions of Secondary School Athletic Trainers in the Diagnosis of Exertional Heat Stroke.
CONCLUSIONS: These data suggested that the health belief model constructs were associated with the performance of best practice, including using rectal thermometry to diagnose EHS. Researchers should aim to create tailored interventions based on health behavior to improve the adoption of best practice. PMID: 32947610 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
