Mechanisms of pulmonary edema induced by tumor necrosis factor-alpha.
We tested the hypothesis that human recombinant tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) promotes pulmonary edema by neutrophil-dependent effects on the pulmonary vasculature. The isolated guinea pig lung was perfused with phosphate-buffered Ringer's solution with or without human neutrophils. The infusion of neutrophils (9 x 10(6) total) into lungs isolated after the in vivo administration of TNF (3....
متن کاملMechanisms of postischemic brain edema: contribution of circulatory factors.
Controlled cerebral ischemia was produced in rabbits by bilateral occlusion of the common carotid arteries and restriction of collateral blood flow by a decrease of the systemic arterial pressure to a desirable level (by hemorrhage into a pressurized reservior system). The following circulatory parameters were simultaneously monitored: systemic arterial pressure (SAP), pressure in the circle of...

The isolated guinea pig lung was perfused with phosphate-buffered Ringer's solution with or without human neutrophils.

متن کاملPathophysiological mechanisms of brain edema development: role of tissue factors.
In experiments carried out on adult rabbit "chest-head" preparations the volume changes of the exposed brain (BrV) were determined in repeated tests during a controlled increase of the systemic venous pressure (SVP) of about 13 mm Hg. The changes of both SVP and BrV were usually parallel at the onset of the experiments, but when the brains became preedematous hysteresis appeared in the plots of...
متن کاملBrain Tumor-Related Epilepsy
In patients with brain tumor (BT), seizures are the onset symptom in 20-40% of patients, while a further 20-45% of patients will present them during the course of the disease. These patients present a complex therapeutic profile and require a unique and multidisciplinary approach. The choice of antiepileptic drugs is challenging for this particular patient population because brain tumor-related...
