Sodium chloride vs. sodium bicarbonate for the prevention of contrast medium-induced nephropathy: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
Aims The most effective regimen for the prevention of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) remains uncertain. Our purpose was to compare two regimens of sodium bicarbonate with 24 h sodium chloride 0.9% infusion in the prevention of CIN.

Abstract Background and Purpose Kinases phosphorylate ion channels, but their noncatalytic roles via protein–protein interactions (PPI) are less understood. Here, we identified the peptidomimetic ZL141 to characterize the PPI between GSK3β and Nav1.6, revealing a noncatalytic role for GSK3β in regulating Nav1.6 currents and neuronal excitability ...

Zero gravity and cardiovascular homeostasis. The relationship between endogenous hyperprolactinemia and plasma aldosterone [PDF]
Prolactin, thyrotropin and aldosterone were measured by radioimmunoassay and plasma renin activity by the radioimmunoassay of angiotensin I in normal women before and after the intravenous injection of 200 micrograms of thyrotropin releasing hormone ...

Randomized, Double-Blind Trial of the Effect of Fluid Composition on Electrolyte, Acid-Base, and Fluid Homeostasis in Patients Early After Subarachnoid Hemorrhage [PDF]
Background: Hyper- and hyponatremia are frequently observed in patients after subarachnoidal hemorrhage, and are potentially related to worse outcome. We hypothesized that the fluid regimen in these patients is associated with distinct changes in serum ...

ABSTRACT Objective The effect of transsphenoidal surgery (TSS) on the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐gonadal (HPG) axis in patients with non‐functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPA) is underexplored, especially in women. Our aim was to investigate the HPG axis function before and after TSS, its association with quality of life (QoL), and to identify factors that ...

Renal tubular acidosis in a mule mare
Summary Renal tubular acidosis (RTA) in horses is differentiated into type I (distal) and type II (proximal) forms. We report the diagnostic evaluation and treatment of type I RTA in a 13‐year‐old mule mare that was referred because of lethargy and inappetence of several weeks' duration as well as lack of manure, anorexia and mild colic for 3 days.

Metabolic thermodynamics: pertinent reference state and energy potentials
A recommendation and method to view the energy potentials of metabolites with reference to (green arrow) a biochemical precursor state (in green: water, Mg2+, phosphate, bicarbonate, ammonium, and sulfate, at pH = 7) rather than (the red arrow) the physical–chemical reference state (in grayish red) that is alien to biology, that is, O2, H2, N2 at 1 ...
