Plasma atrial natriuretic factor during chronic thoracic inferior vena caval constriction.
The effects of chronic constriction of the thoracic inferior vena cava (TIVCC) on plasma atrial natriuretic factor (pANF) were studied in conscious dogs (n = 5). TIVCC decreased left and right atrial pressure and led to a decrease in pANF concentration from 199 +/- 12 to 104 +/- 14 pg/ml while plasma renin and vasopressin concentrations increased. These hormonal changes were associated with a s...
متن کاملBiological actions of brain natriuretic peptide in thoracic inferior vena caval constriction.
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) shares structural and functional similarities to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). Although BNP and ANP interact with the same biologically active guanylate cyclase-coupled receptor, recent reports conflict with regard to the biological actions of exogenous BNP in sodium-retaining and edematous states. We studied the biological actions of BNP in normal dogs (n = ...
متن کاملAngiotensin converting enzyme inhibition modulates endogenous endothelin in chronic canine thoracic inferior vena caval constriction.
Endothelin (ET) is a potent vasoconstrictor peptide which is elevated in plasma in congestive heart failure. Recent studies suggest an important role for angiotensin II (AII) in the activation of ET in cultured cardiomyocytes. Chronic thoracic inferior vena caval constriction (TIVCC) is a model of reduced cardiac output that mimics the neurohumoral activation observed in congestive heart failur...
متن کاملInferior Vena Caval Ligation
PULMONARY embolism, which is usually a complication of venous thrombosis in the lower limbs, is responsible for approximately 3 per cent. of howpital deaths. It is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in various medical and surgical conditions. It is generally accepted that anticoagulant therapy has an important place as a prophylactic measure in venous thrombosis and, when efficient, redu...
متن کاملPatients with inferior vena caval filters should receive chronic thromboprophylaxis.
A 32-year-old man with testicular carcinoma is diagnosed with an acute left leg deep venous thrombosis (DVT) during his fourth cycle of combination chemotherapy. Because of anticipated moderate to severe thrombocytopenia, anticoagulation is initially avoided and an inferior vena cava (IVC) filter is placed to prevent pulmonary embolism (PE). After completion of all chemotherapy he is deemed to ...
