Use of spinal cord stimulation in managing neuropathic foot pain: an observational pilot case series study [PDF]
Objective: In cases of complex regional pain syndrome where conservative treatment is unsuccessful in controlling neuropathic foot pain spinal cord stimulation may be considered. To our knowledge there have been no such cases reported in the foot & ankle

Diminished neurogenic femoral artery vasoconstrictor response in a Zucker obese rat model: differential regulation of NOS and COX derivatives [PDF]
Objective: Peripheral arterial disease is one of the macrovascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study addresses femoral artery regulation in a prediabetic model of obese Zucker rats (OZR) by examining cross-talk between endothelial and

Mechanisms of electrical vasoconstriction
Background Electrical vasoconstriction is a promising approach to control blood pressure or restrict bleeding in non-compressible wounds. We explore the neural and non-neural pathways of electrical vasoconstriction in-vivo.

Transit times through the cycle phases of jejunal crypt cells of the mouse [PDF]
Mean transit times as well as variances of the transit times through the individual phases of the cell cycle have been determined for the crypt epithelial cells of the jejunum of the mouse. To achieve this the fraction of labelled mitoses (FLM) technique

Macrophage TNF-α mediates parathion-induced airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs. [PDF]
Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are implicated in human asthma. We previously demonstrated that, at concentrations that do not inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity, the OP parathion causes airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs as a result of ...

Rat duodenal motility in vitro: Prokinetic effects of DL-homocysteine thiolactone and modulation of nitric oxide mediated inhibition [PDF]
Homocysteine is a significant but modifiable risk factor for vascular diseases. As gastrointestinal smooth musculature is similar to blood vessel muscles, we investigated how elevated homocysteine levels affect nitric oxide-mediated ...

Contribution of K v 2.1 channels to the delayed rectifier current in freshly dispersed smooth muscle cells from rabbit urethra [PDF]
We have characterized the native voltage-dependent K + (K v ) current in rabbit urethral smooth muscle cells (RUSMC) and compared its pharmacological and biophysical properties with K v 2.1 and K v 2.2 channels cloned from the rabbit urethra and stably ...
