Relationship Between Gallbladder Distension and Lipid Profiles in Kawasaki Disease
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Kawasaki disease (KD) is an acute systemic vasculitis in children which causes coronary arterial dilatation (CAD) and gallbladder distension (GBD). There is a dearth of investigating the relationship between the severity of KD and GBD with lipid profiles. SUBJECTS AND METHODS A total of 80 patients with 'complete KD' who were diagnosed from January 2005 to May 2009 w...
متن کاملCell proliferation in the human gallbladder epithelium: effect of distension.
DNA synthesis activity in the epithelium of the human gallbladder was studied through in vitro labelling of mucosal specimens with 3H-thymidine and autoradiography. The specimens were taken at the time of a surgical operation. Eight 'normal' gallbladders and six distended gallbladders from patients with carcinomatous obstruction of the common bile duct were examined. Proliferative activity was ...
متن کامل[Gallbladder distension caused by tumoral obstruction of the common bile duct (Courvoisier's sign)].
A 77-year-old man presented in the Emergency Unit because of abdominal pain, jaundice, and dark urine. A soft and movable mass with mild tenderness located in the right upper abdominal quadrant was found in the physical exam. A transcutaneous abdominal ultrasound disclosed a gallbladder hydrops with early wall edema, without cholecystolithiasis (Fig. 1). It was due to a biliary obstruction caus...
متن کاملEffect of distension of the gallbladder on plasma renin activity in anesthetized pigs.
BACKGROUND Gallbladder pathology has been associated with cardiovascular disease. Recently, we showed that gallbladder distension in anesthetized pigs reflexly increased heart rate, arterial pressure, and coronary and renal vascular resistance through efferent sympathetic mechanisms. Renin release is affected by sympathetic output, and angiotensin liberation may result in vasoconstriction. This...
متن کاملCardiovascular reflexes arising from the gallbladder of the cat. Effects of capsaicin, bradykinin, and distension.
We have studied the cardiovascular responses which can be evoked when the gallbladder is stimulated pharmacologically or mechanically. To determine the potential for reflex cardiovascular activation, we applied capsaicin, a selective thin-fiber agonist, to the serosal surface of the gallbladder. This algesic substance evoked cardiovascular responses which included increases in mean arterial pre...
