Malignant hyperthermia [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2012
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is an uncommon, life-threatening pharmacogenetic disorder of the skeletal muscle. It presents as a hypermetabolic response in susceptible individuals to potent volatile anesthetics with/without depolarizing muscle relaxants; in rare cases, to stress from exertion or heat stress. Susceptibility to malignant hyperthermia (MHS)

Hyperthermia

open access: yesWorld Journal of Biology Pharmacy and Health Sciences, 2023
There is scientific support for the concept of a temperature set point that is, maintenance of an optimal temperature for the metabolic processes that life depends on Nervous activity in the preoptic-anterior hypothalamus of the brain triggers heat losing (sweating, etc.) or heat generating (shivering and muscle contraction, etc.) activities through ...

Malignant hyperthermia [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2007
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disorder of skeletal muscle that presents as a hypermetabolic response to potent volatile anesthetic gases such as halothane, sevoflurane, desflurane and the depolarizing muscle relaxant succinylcholine, and rarely, in humans, to stresses such as vigorous exercise and heat.

Hyperthermia combined with chemotherapy - Biological rationale, clinical application, and treatment results [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
There is substantial evidence from preclinical data that the antitumor cytotoxicity of selected chemotherapeutic agents either alone or combined with radiation can be enhanced by appropriate heat exposure (40-44 degrees C) of cells or tumor tissues ...

Predictive value of SAR based quality indicators for head and neck hyperthermia treatment quality

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hyperthermia, 2019
Purpose: Hyperthermia treatment quality determines treatment effectiveness as shown by the clinically derived thermal-dose effect relations. SAR based optimization factors are used as possible surrogate for temperature, since they are not affected by ...

Hyperthermia treatment of tumors by mesenchymal stem cell-delivered superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Magnetic hyperthermia - a potential cancer treatment in which superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) are made to resonantly respond to an alternating magnetic field (AMF) and thereby produce heat - is of significant current interest. We have
