Secretion pattern of melatonin after head injury

Effect of Melatonin on Cardiac Injury after Primary Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Several studies have reported that the antioxidant properties of melatonin can provide cardiac protection through scavenging of free radicals. This study sought to investigate the efficacy of melatonin on cardiac biomarkers, myocardial-specific protein high sensitive troponin-T (hs-TnT) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoin...

Brainstem lesions after head injury.

There is little knowledge on the morphology of the brain stem in survivors of head injury, as CT fails to shown brain stem lesions, and neuropathological data is only available from autopsies. As magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sheds new light on morphological lesions of the brain, the authors investigated 100 patients with a severe head injury. MRI was performed in a prospective study within ...

Patient after Severe Head Injury

Background: The pharmacodynamic differences in time to onset and dissipation of effect of sufentanil, fentanyl, and alfentanil probably result from different rates of blood-brain equilibration. The authors investigated this hypothesis in humans. Methods: After simultaneous central venous bolus application of sufentanil (10 pg), fentanyl (100 pg), and alfentanil (1,000 pg), arterial and jugular ...
