Angiotensin-converting enzyme, bradykinin, angiotensin, and cerebral vessel reactivity.
Bradykinin (BK) produced concentration-related relaxations of cat middle cerebral arteries and was ineffective in cat basilar arteries. On rabbit basilar arteries, BK initially produced concentration-related relaxations; however, when repeated at 2-hour intervals, BK eventually produced pure contractile responses. After preincubation of the tissues with cycloheximide, BK produced reproducible r...
متن کاملRegional disparity in hygienic behaviors of Iranian children and adolescents: The CASPIAN-IV study
Background: This study aimed to assess the pattern of hygienic behaviors of Iranian children and adolescents at national and sub-national levels according to the socioeconomic status (SES) of their living region. Methods: Data were obtained from the fourth national school-based surveillance survey entitled, “CASPIAN-IV study” (2011-2012). It was conducted among 14,880 stud...
متن کاملDisparity in osmolarity-induced vascular reactivity.
Conventional peritoneal dialysis solutions (PDS) are vasoactive. This study was conducted to identify vasoactive components of PDS and to describe quantitatively such vasoactivity. Anesthetized nonheparinized rats were monitored continuously for hemodynamics while the microvasculature of the jejunum was studied with in vivo intravital microscopy. In separate experiments, vascular reactivity of ...
متن کاملPravastatin improves cerebral vasomotor reactivity in patients with subcortical small-vessel disease.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Recent investigations have suggested an important role of statins in the prevention of stroke and dementia independent of their lipid-lowering properties. Using transcranial Doppler sonography (TCD), we examined acetazolamide reactivity as a marker of cerebral vasoreactivity in patients with subcortical small-vessel disease before and after pravastatin treatment. METHOD...
متن کاملImpact of regional cortical and subcortical changes on processing speed in cerebral small vessel disease☆
Slowed processing speed is common in elderly subjects and frequently related to cerebral small vessel disease. Previous studies have demonstrated associations between processing speed and subcortical ischemic lesions as well as cortical alterations but the precise functional-anatomical relationships remain poorly understood. Here we assessed the impact of both cortical and subcortical changes o...
