Uterine artery blood flow, fetal hypoxia and fetal growth.
Evolutionary trade-offs required for bipedalism and brain expansion influence the pregnancy rise in uterine artery (UtA) blood flow and, in turn, reproductive success. We consider the importance of UtA blood flow by reviewing its determinants and presenting data from 191 normotensive (normal, n = 125) or hypertensive (preeclampsia (PE) or gestational hypertension (GH), n = 29) Andean residents ...
متن کاملCerebral blood flow and metabolism in hepatic cirrhosis before and after portacaval shunt operation.
It has been demonstrated that cardiac output and pulmonary, gastroduodenal, pancreatic, and splenic blood flow increases after portacaval shunt operations. This report concerns a study of cerebral haemodynamics and metabolism in eight patients with cirrhosis of the liver, examined both before and after portacaval surgical anastomosis. The patients were fully alert and orientated to mental and n...
متن کاملEffects of angiotensin II on steroid metabolism and hepatic blood flow in man.
Metabolic clearance rates (MCR) of aldosterone, cortisol, 11-deoxycorticosterone (DOC), corticosterone, and progesterone were simultaneously measured by constant infusion in eight control subjects before and during angiotensin II infusion in subpressor (3 ng/min per kg) and pressor (22 ng/min per kg) doses. Plasma levels of aldosterone and cortisol, the heat-labile protein-bound fraction of ald...
متن کاملThe effect of hyperventilation upon cerebral blood flow and metabolism in patients with fulminant hepatic failure.
Patients with FHF have a high risk of cerebral edema and intracranial hypertension. The pathophysiological background for this phenomenon is not completely settled, but alteration in CBF as well as cerebral metabolism seems to be of importance. Mechanical hyperventilation has a prompt effect on intracranial pressure. This effect is assumed to be caused by the hypocapnia induced alkalosis which ...
متن کاملCerebral Blood Flow Physiology and Metabolism
The brain comprises only 2% of total body weight; however, under normal conditions, it receives 15–20% of the cardiac output and accounts for 20% of total body oxygen consumption. Because energy reserves within the brain are negligible, adequate blood flow is essential for the provision of a continuous supply of energy-producing substrates and for the removal of the byproducts of cellular metab...
