For various reasons plasma catecholamines should be measured in arterial blood when comparing hypertensive and normotensive groups (1, 2). Measurements of plasma catecholamines in peripheral venous blood may conceal important hypertensive-normotensive differences (2). Plasma catecholamines seem to be subjected to a peripheral arterialvenous fractional extraction of approximately 50%. Thus, arte...
متن کامل[Cognitive function and blood pressure regulation in Lewy body diseases].

According to the Braak's hypothesis, Lewy bodies first appear in the olfactory bulb or peripheral autonomic nervous system.

متن کاملRelations of bone and blood lead to cognitive function: the VA Normative Aging Study.
The relationship between performance on cognitive tasks and circulating levels of lead in blood and accumulated levels of lead in bone was examined in 141 middle-aged and elderly men from a longitudinal study of aging. The mean (SD) blood lead level was low [5.5 (3.5) micrograms/dl], and mean patella and tibia lead levels were 31.7 (19.2) and 22.5 (12.2) micrograms/g bone mineral, respectively....
