“…Oxygen stress may induce MOF, which is clinically significant. Data from this and previous studies [23,24,[29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] suggest that a number of clinical features of renal dysfunction in the presence or following PNP may in fact be due to low flow/reflow situations, and thus may relate to XO-derived radical oxygen species (ROS) activity, as demonstrated herein for the C8 mmHg groups. We have previously described the toxic effects of high XO activity in the lungs [23].…”

“…Furthermore, surgeons need to be aware of the risks associated with tourniquet use, which include skin damage, quadriceps muscle weakness, neuropraxia, vascular injury, or deep vein thrombosis. [42][43][44][45][46][47][48] To clarify the effects of tourniquet use, further studies are needed.…”

“…Moreover, there are potential complications associated with tourniquet use: nerve palsy [8,19], delayed recovery of muscle power from microscopic changes in muscle myofibrils [21], wound complications [1,12,25], and venous thrombotic embolism [1,10,12]. Deflation of the tourniquet can cause respiratory and cardiac complications in patients with poor cardiac function [7,18].…”
