Relationship between carbon monoxide poisoning, lactate and cardiac marker
INTRODUCTION: Carbon monoxide reduces blood oxygen transport capacity and causes tissue hypoxia by binding to hemoglobin. We aimed to evaluate the relationship between Troponin I, a myocardial injury marker, Lactate, a tissue hypoxia marker and ...

HIV infection is an independent risk factor for decreased 6-minute walk test distance. [PDF]
BackgroundAmbulatory function predicts morbidity and mortality and may be influenced by cardiopulmonary dysfunction. Persons living with HIV (PLWH) suffer from a high prevalence of cardiac and pulmonary comorbidities that may contribute to higher risk of

Oxidative stress is reduced in Wistar rats exposed to smoke from tobacco and treated with specific broad-band pulse electromagnetic fields [PDF]
There have been a number of attempts to reduce the oxidative radical burden of tobacco. A recently patented technology, pulse electromagnetic technology, has been shown to induce differential action of treated tobacco products versus untreated products ...

Significance of the carboxyhemoglobin level for out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary arrest
Background: At low concentrations, carbon monoxide (CO) can confer cyto and tissue-protective effects, such as endogenous Heme oxygenase 1 expression, which has antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, and antiapoptotic effects.
