Visualization and assessment of saccular duct and endolymphatic sinus
CONCLUSION The saccular duct and endolymphatic sinus run in the bony groove, before reaching the orifice of the vestibular aqueduct. We first clinically visualized this sulciform groove using three-dimensional (3D) cone beam CT images. This strategy can be useful to assess the condition of the saccular duct and endolymphatic sinus concerning the longitudinal flow system of endolymph. OBJECTIV...
متن کاملInhaled loop diuretics as potential new anti-asthmatic drugs.
The observation that changes in bronchial osmolarity can induce bronchoconstriction in asthma inspired the experimental studies which, unexpectedly, revealed that frusemide is an effective bronchoprotective agent against a variety of osmotic and non osmotic stimuli. Although the mechanism of this protective effect is not fully understood, studies in vivo and in vitro suggest that frusemide may ...
متن کاملLoop Diuretics in Clinical Practice
Diuretics are commonly used to control edema across various clinical fields. Diuretics inhibit sodium reabsorption in specific renal tubules, resulting in increased urinary sodium and water excretion. Loop diuretics are the most potent diuretics. In this article, we review five important aspects of loop diuretics, in particular furosemide, which must be considered when prescribing this medicine...
متن کاملHow do loop diuretics act?
In the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle, NaCl reabsorption is mediated by a Na+/2Cl-/K+ cotransport system, present in the luminal membrane of this nephron segment. Loop diuretics such as furosemide (frusemide), piretanide, bumetanide and torasemide bind reversibly to this carrier protein, thus reducing or abolishing NaCl reabsorption. This leads to a decrease in interstitial hypertoni...
متن کاملVascular effects of loop diuretics.
Although it is generally believed that the beneficial effect of loop diuretics is the result of a rapid increase in diuresis, substantial evidence, from a large number of in vitro and in vivo experiments, has accumulated showing that administration of furosemide causes direct vascular effects, which probably contribute to its acute clinical effects. Several mechanisms are involved in the vascul...
