Pulmonary vasodilation by inhaled nitric oxide after endothelial injury

, 1992
Inhaled nitric oxide gas (NO) has recently been shown to reverse experimentally induced pulmonary vasoconstriction. To examine the effect of free radical injury and methylene blue exposure on inhaled NO-induced pulmonary vasodilation we studied ...

Protective Effects of Riociguat Against Contrast‐Induced Nephropathy: An Experimental and Machine Learning‐Based Study in Rats

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contrast‐induced nephropathy (CIN) is an important cause of acute kidney injury following exposure to iodinated contrast media, and effective preventive strategies remain limited. This study investigated the renoprotective effects of riociguat, a soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator, in an experimental rat model of CIN and explored machine ...

Hemodynamic Significance of APEXCT Coronary Angiography Combined With Dynamic CT Myocardial Perfusion Imaging in Assessing Restenosis After Coronary Stenting

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the hemodynamic significance of in‐stent restenosis (ISR) by using a combined anatomical‐functional approach with photon‐counting CT coronary angiography (APEX‐CT CTA) and dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CT‐MPI). We prospectively enrolled 239 symptomatic patients at least 9 months after PCI.

Viscum album L. mother tinctures modulate Na+/K+ ATPase activity and expression, and promote endothelium-dependent vasodilation via SK channel and nitric oxide signalling

Frontiers in Physiology
IntroductionEthanolic extracts of Viscum album L. (European mistletoe), known as mother tinctures (VAMTs), have been used in traditional medicine to treat hypertension and cardiovascular diseases.

Role of transdermal potential difference during intophoretic drug delivery. [PDF]

, 2004
Potential differences have been measured during transdermal iontophoresis in order to establish the effect of voltage, as opposed to current, on cutaneous blood flow. It is known that, even in the absence of drugs, the iontophoresis current can sometimes

Mechanisms of systemic vasodilation by lysozyme-c in septic shock

, 2012
In septic shock (SS), cardiovascular collapse is caused by the release of inflammatory mediators. We previously found that lysozyme-c (Lzm-S), released from leukocytes, contributed to systemic vasodilation in a canine model of SS. We then delineated the

The Association Between Stress‐Induced Hyperglycemia Ratio and Increased Urinary Albumin Excretion in Patients With Hypertension: A Population‐Based Study

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR), a novel marker reflecting relative hyperglycemia, has been increasingly recognized for its prognostic value in cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. However, its association with early renal damage in hypertensive patients remains underexplored.

Oxygen-induced vasodilation in pulmonary arterioles from fetal rats.

, 2000
BACKGROUND: Oxygen is a potent stimulus for pulmonary vasodilation in the perinatal period. Little information is available regarding mediators of oxygen-induced pulmonary vasodilation in fetal rats.

Effect of Anger Provocation on Endothelium-Dependent and -Independent Vasodilation

, 2007
Anger is an independent predictor of coronary heart disease events, although the mechanisms for this relation are unclear. The effects of an anger-provoking interview compared with a neutral interview on endothelium-dependent and -independent ...
