They suggested that hyperglycemia via hyperosmolarity at supra-physiological levels potentiates the production of cytokines by peripheral blood mononuclear cells in response to lipopolysaccharide LPS stimulation and that it also reduces the responses of phagocytosis and oxidative burst in human granulocytes. The efficacy of IIT they concluded may be partially due to the correction of hyperosmolality. Other studies however have suggested that immunological responses to LPS in the presence of hyperglycemia are mediated by a mechanism other than hyperosmolality. In the previous issue of Critical Care Otto and colleagues 1 used in vitro studies to explore the theory that immunological activation induced by hyperglycemia is the result of hyperosmololaity. There is in fact a growing body of literature on osmotic regulation of cell function with possible implications on clinical outcomes 2 . At the forefront of this research is the use of hypertonic solutions to attenuate inflammation and immunosuppression following traumatic injury or sepsis 3-5 . It is widely known that administration of hypertonic solutions promotes a more balanced .
