Hypophosphatemia revealed in patients with acute disorders of cerebral circulation was one of the causes of a decrease of the content of 2,3-DPG, ATP in red blood cells and of a reduction of Ca2(+)-ATPase activity in red blood cell membranes. In the given group of patients, hypophosphatemia was provoked by complete parenteral feeding, hypocapnia and by loss of phosphorus with urine and congestive gastrointestinal contents.

The first 5 days of treatment of 98 patients with acute disorders of the cerebral blood circulation revealed hypophosphatemia and related reduction of the level of 2, 3 DPG, ATP in the erythrocytes. The causes of hypophosphatemia in these patients were absence of entrance of phosphorus to the body, its loss with the urine and gastrointestinal contents and hypocapnia. The possible ways of correction of these disorders are discussed.

1. The effects of hypercapnia and hypocapnia on brain intracellular pH (pHi) and metabolism were investigated in new-born lambs under barbiturate anaesthesia. 2. 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectroscopy was used to determine brain pHi and the relative concentrations of compounds containing mobile phosphorus nuclei including phosphocreatine (PCr), nucleoside triphosphates (NTP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi). Simultaneous measurements were made of the molar ratio of glucose to oxygen uptake by the brain. 3. During normocapnia (arterial partial pressure of CO2 Pa, CO2, 39 +/- 1 mmHg mean +/- S.E. of mean, n = 9) brain pHi was 7.13 +/- 0.02. Hypercapnia (Pa, CO2, 98 +/- 3 mmHg) was associated with a fall in brain pHi to 6.94 +/- 0.03 (n = 19, P less than 0.001), whereas no significant change in brain pHi occurred during hypocapnia (Pa, CO2, 16 +/- 1 mmHg; brain pHi 7.15 +/- 0.01). 4. During hypercapnia there was an increase in the ratio of Pi to NTP from 1.09 +/- 0.08 to 1.47 +/- 0.06 (P less than 0.001) and a decrease in the ratio PCr/Pi from 1.60 +/- 0.08 to 0.93 +/- 0.04 (P less than 0.001). There was a linear correlation between Pi/NTP and brain pHi. 5. Alterations in arterial PCO2 had no significant effect on the molar ratio of glucose to oxygen uptake by the brain, which remained close to unity. 6. The change in brain pHi observed during hypercapnia can be accounted for by the known physico-chemical buffering capacity of brain tissue. Homoeostasis of brain pHi during hypocapnia provides further evidence that additional regulatory mechanisms operate in these circumstances. 7. The observed changes in PCr and Pi can be accounted for in part by the [H+] dependence of the creatine kinase reaction.

Hypophosphatemia occurs in a variety of clinical conditions. It develops in parallel with phosphate depletion from body losses or more commonly as a sequel to the redistribution of phosphate from the extracellular to the intracellular compartment. Hypophosphatemia is a multisystem disturbance capable of involving the neurological, immunological, and muscular systems, among others. In this report, we describe five patients with severe head injury who developed marked hypophosphatemia (less than 1 mg/dl) within 24 hours of hospitalization. This fall in serum phosphate coincided with the induction of respiratory alkalosis consequent to mechanical ventilation. In four of the five patients, as acid-base parameters returned to normal, serum phosphate values rose, in all instances reaching values greater than 2.5 mg/dl. Urinary phosphorus excretion, ordinarily negligible after hypophosphatemia induced by hypocapnia, was still present in Cases 1 and 4 (greater than 600 mg/24 hours). This is unexplained by any of the known hormonal or fluid alterations that accompany head injury. These five patients developed severe, yet transient, hypophosphatemia that resolved upon correction of hyperventilation-induced acid-base abnormalities. We discuss the pathophysiology of this entity and the implications for the head trauma patient.

We investigated the in vivo changes in cerebral energy metabolism and pHi in newborn mice noninvasively during 8 h of hypoxia with FiO2 = 5%, using phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy continuously. The intracellular brain pH (pHi) increased from 7.20 +/- 0.03 to 7.36 +/- 0.03 (P < 0.05) at 1 h of hypoxia and then decreased gradually. On the other hand, the mixed arterial and venous blood pH decreased gradually during hypoxia, reaching a minimum value of 7.16 +/- 0.01 at the end of the hypoxia. There was no significant difference in PCO2 between control (47.4 +/- 0.8 mm Hg) and 1-h hypoxic (49.0 +/- 1.1 mm Hg) mice. The blood glucose concentration was significantly increased at 1 h of hypoxia. These results indicate that the alkaline shift in pHi during hypoxia was caused neither by systemic alkalosis due to hypocapnia nor hypoglycemia.

Substantial controversy persists in the literature concerning the physiologic consequences hypocapnia, or low partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO(2)). Invasive animal studies have demonstrated large pH increases (>0.25 U), phosphocreatine (PCr) decreases (>30%), and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) decreases (>10%) after hyperventilation (HV) (20 mm Hg PaCO(2)). However, using magnetic resonance spectroscopy, HV studies in awake humans have demonstrated only small pH changes ( approximately 0.05 U) and no changes in PCr or ATP. It remains important to ascertain whether this failure to detect PCr changes in human studies reflects a true absence of changes, or a limitation in data fidelity. The present study used a rapidly interleaved phosphorus-proton spectroscopy acquisition from large samples at high magnetic field (4 T), to measure pH, PCr, inorganic phosphate, beta-ATP, and lactate changes with high temporal and signal sensitivity. Five of six subjects had usable data. During 20 mins HV, PaCO(2) reached a minimum at 16 mins (17 mm Hg); however, the maximum pH change (+0.047) peaked earlier (14 mins). Maximal lactate increases were measured at 15 mins. By 10 mins, maximum changes were observed for PCr (-3.4%) and inorganic phosphate (+6.4%). No changes in beta-ATP were observed. The peak in pH, despite continued decreases in PaCO(2), suggests active buffering during HV. These data, and the small magnitude of early PCr and inorganic phosphate changes, do not support substantial energy compromise during HV. Other mitigating factors, such as anesthesia-induced deregulation of the cerebrovasculature, might have contributed to the exaggerated metabolic changes observed in previous animal investigations.

The effects of controlled voluntary hyperventilation (Hyp) on phosphocreatine (PCr) kinetics and muscle deoxygenation were examined during moderate-intensity plantar flexion exercise. Male subjects (n = 7) performed trials consisting of 20-min rest, 6-min exercise, and 10-min recovery in control [Con; end-tidal Pco(2) (Pet(CO(2))) approximately 33 mmHg] and Hyp (Pet(CO(2)) approximately 17 mmHg) conditions. Phosphorus-31 magnetic resonance and near-infrared spectroscopy were used simultaneously to monitor intramuscular acid-base status, high-energy phosphates, and muscle oxygenation. Resting intracellular hydrogen ion concentration ([H(+)](i)) was lower (P < 0.05) in Hyp [90 nM (SD 3)] than Con [96 nM (SD 4)]; however, at end exercise, [H(+)](i) was greater (P < 0.05) in Hyp [128 nM (SD 19)] than Con [120 nM (SD 17)]. At rest, [PCr] was not different between Con [36 mM (SD 2)] and Hyp [36 mM (SD 1)]. The time constant (tau) of PCr breakdown during transition from rest to exercise was greater (P < 0.05) in Hyp [39 s (SD 22)] than Con [32 s (SD 22)], and the PCr amplitude was greater (P < 0.05) in Hyp [26% (SD 4)] than Con [22% (SD 6)]. The deoxyhemoglobin and/or deoxymyoglobin (HHb) tau was similar between Hyp [13 s (SD 8)] and Con [10 s (SD 3)]; however, the amplitude was increased (P < 0.05) in Hyp [40 arbitrary units (au) (SD 23)] compared with Con [26 au (SD 17)]. In conclusion, our results indicate that Hyp-induced hypocapnia enhanced substrate-level phosphorylation during moderate-intensity exercise. In addition, the increased amplitude of the HHb response suggests a reduced local muscle perfusion in Hyp compared with Con.
