Isosorbide Mononitrate a Nitric Oxide Donor: A Study of Its Efficacy and Safety as an Agent for Cervical Ripening.
OBJECTIVE To study the efficacy and safety profile of isosorbide mononitrate (IMN) as an agent for cervical ripening. METHODOLOGY This study was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, M Y Hospital & M G M Medical College Indore from September 2011 to February 2013. Pregnant women attending the antenatal clinics were screened for possible participation in the study after exp...
متن کاملPreferential impairment of nitric oxide-mediated endothelium-dependent relaxation in human cervical arteries after irradiation.
BACKGROUND Vascular abnormalities are a major cause of postoperative complications in irradiated tissues. Endothelial cell dysfunction characterized by diminished endothelium-dependent relaxation may be involved. We examined the endothelium-dependent relaxation and morphology of the endothelium in irradiated human cervical arteries. METHODS AND RESULTS Irradiated arteries were taken from the ...
متن کاملPreterm Cervical Ripening in humans
Preterm birth (PTB) is the leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity. Despite the current treatment procedures, the incidence of PTB has not changed in the past thirty years. Incomplete understanding of the biological and patophysiological mechanisms underlying preterm delivery is the major obstacle to prevent PTB. Cervical ripening is necessary for vaginal delivery and understanding of...
متن کاملHistological aspects of cervical ripening.
There is a close relationship between the rate of the uterine cervix opening during parturition and the presence or absence of a completely ripened cervix. In order to learn the basic pattern of the ripening of cervix, histological and histochemical studies were performed on the human uterine cervix during pregnancy. It was noted that the collagen bundles disintegrated into fine fibers and also...
متن کاملInducible nitric oxide synthase in the lung and exhaled nitric oxide after hyperoxia.
The effect of hyperoxia on nitric oxide (NO) production in intact animals is unknown. We described the effects of hyperoxia on inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression and NO production in the lungs of rats exposed to high concentrations of oxygen. Animals were placed in sealed Plexiglas chambers and were exposed to either 85% oxygen (hyperoxic group) or 21% oxygen (negative control gr...
