THE clinical use of mephentermine ¶ to elevate the arterial-blood pressure in man is presumably based upon the rationale that its pressor action is primarily due to an increase in myocardial ...

In this prospective study, we investigated factors regulating peripheral resistance that control hemodynamic adaptation in pregnant women and evaluated differences in these factors between nulliparous ...

Resistance to the action of insulin to mediate peripheral glucose disposal is a key element in the etiology of type 2 diabetes. Insulin resistance leads to a compensatory increase in pancreatic ß-cell ...

Applying ice water to the face may be a simple and quick method for first responders to temporarily prevent cardiovascular shutdown in casualties who have lost a lot of blood. Such a tool could be an ...

A new publication from Opto-Electronic Advances, 10.29026/oea.2023.230018 discusses Spatiotemporal hemodynamic monitoring via configurable skin-like microfiber Bragg grating group. Cardiovascular ...

Disease of small airways may be common to various chronic obstructive lung diseases. Because R p is normally so small, there may be considerable obstruction in peripheral airways that would affect ...

Gender matters when it comes to what's most likely to elevate blood pressure in young to middle-aged adults. The volume of blood pumped from the left ventricle during heartbeats, i.e., stroke volume, ...

Insulin resistance is the major contributor to cardiometabolic complications of obesity. We aimed to (1) establish cutoff points for insulin resistance from euglycemic hyperinsulinemic clamps (EHCs), ...

A rapid method for determination of zidovudine resistance was developed and results were correlated with clinical outcome in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected children. The zidovudine ...

Drinking a chokeberry-rich juice daily may improve blood vessel function and prevent muscle loss during high-intensity training, offering a potential dietary strategy for people with pre-diabetes.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, Vol. 95, No. 26 (Dec. 22, 1998), pp. 15849-15854 (6 pages) Disease resistance in plants is often controlled by a ...
