متن کاملImpaired pancreatic bicarbonate secretion in chronic malnutrition.
Twenty three children with recurrent episodes of diarrhea and chronic malnutrition were studied for pancreatic duct function. Those children were subjected to pancreatic stimulation with pancreozymin and secretin. Grade I malnourished children, as per Gomez classification, formed the control group. The water output from pancreas increased in malnourished children (p < 0.05). It correlated signi...
متن کاملNizatidine Improves Impaired Salivary Secretion in GERD
UNLABELLED During esophageal acid clearance, salivation plays an important role in defending the esophageal mucosa. Nizatidine, a histamine H2 receptor antagonist, inhibits acetylcholine esterase, with a resultant increase in acetylcholine. We experienced a patient with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and impaired salivary secretion who has been successfully treated with nizatidine. CA...

متن کاملImpaired Left Ventricular Function in Alcoholic Cirrhosis With Ascites
Left ventricular function was assessed in 10 patients with alcoholic cirrhosis and ascites without clinical evidence of heart disease. In the resting state pulmonary wedge pressure (PWP) was normal (average 9.7 mm Hg), cardiac output (CO) was elevated (average 9.7 L/min) and systemic vascular resistance (SVR) was low (average 825 dynes-sec-cm-5). During infusion of angiotensin in a dose suffici...
