Independency of myocardial stunning of endothelial stunning?
Basic Research in Cardiology, 2007Vascular endothelial cells play an important role in the control of vascular tone. The reasons for coronary endothelial dysfunction are complex and may involve ischemia/reperfusion injury. We investigated whether endothelial, smooth muscle, and myocardial dysfunction are independent phenomena.Rabbit hearts were rapidly excised without intermittent ...

Thyroid, 2003
Debates regarding thyroid stunning-a phenomenon whereby a diagnostic dose of radioiodine decreases uptake of a subsequent therapeutic dose by remnant thyroid tissue or by functioning metastases-have been fueled by inconsistent research findings. Quantitative studies evaluating radioiodine uptake and qualitative studies using visual observations both ...

Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 1994
Myocardial stunning is a mechanical dysfunction that persists after reperfusion of previously ischemic tissue in the absence of irreversible damage including myocardial necrosis. Myocardial stunning is an unfavorable phenomenon that is manifest during reperfusion and is caused mostly by events associated with reperfusion.

Stunned myocardium and the attenuation of stunning by calcium antagonists
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1995Myocardial "stunning" is characterized by a reversible postischemic contractile dysfunction despite full restoration of blood flow. The underlying mechanisms are not clearly understood. Inadequate energy supply and impaired sympathetic neurotransmission may have been excluded.

Therapy for myocardial stunning
Basic Research in Cardiology, 1995Myocardial stunning, or postischemic dysfunction, is defined as delayed recovery of systolic and/or diastolic function of viable myocardium despite restoration of coronary flow after an ischemic insult (4). The severity and duration of myocardial stunning is highly dependent on the duration and severity of the previous ischemic insult (2).

STUNNING | Electrical Stunning
2014Electrical stunning is used all over the world to render animals, including poultry, unconscious before slaughter that lasts until exsanguination results in death. The basic physiological principle of electrical stunning is to administer sufficient electric current through the head of an animal so that a generalized epileptiform activity is induced in ...

Heart Failure Reviews, 2003
Myocardial stunning refers to the contractile dysfunction that occurs following an episode of acute ischaemia, despite the return of normal blood flow. The phenomenon was initially identified in animal models, where it has been very well characterised, and there was initial doubt about whether a similar syndrome occurred in humans, and if it did ...
