Hormonal Changes in Pregnancy
Because of the time factor involved, it would be an impossible task to present the vast body of biochemical information accumulated during the last decade on the endocrine aspects of pregnancy. However, certain key points can be made concerning the feto-placental unit and the hormone levels and effects in normal gestation. These concepts will be discussed not merely for their academic value, bu...
متن کاملHemodynamic and hormonal changes during erythropoietin therapy in hemodialysis patients.
To better understand the mechanism of recombinant human erythropoietin (rhEPO)-induced increase in BP, hemodynamic parameters, body fluid volumes, and the hormones implicated in BP regulation were studied in 32 anemic hemodialysis patients before and after 3 to 4 mo of rhEPO therapy. Hemoglobin levels increased from 83 +/- 1.5 to 119 +/- 2.3 g/L (P < 0.01) after rhEPO therapy (25 to 43 U/kg) ad...
متن کاملSodium sensitivity in human subjects. Hemodynamic and hormonal correlates.
To investigate factors associated with sodium sensitivity, 157 subjects were studied while receiving 10 and 200 mEq sodium diets. Measurements included blood pressure (BP), forearm vascular resistance, plasma renin activity (PRA), and plasma aldosterone. Sodium repletion was associated with a greater than 5% increase in mean BP in 16% of the normotensive subjects and 29% of the borderline hyper...
متن کاملHemodynamic and hormonal effects of human ghrelin in healthy volunteers.
To investigate hemodynamic and hormonal effects of ghrelin, a novel growth hormone (GH)-releasing peptide, we gave six healthy men an intravenous bolus of human ghrelin (10 microg/kg) or placebo and vice versa 1-2 wk apart in a randomized fashion. Ghrelin elicited a marked increase in circulating GH (15-fold). The elevation of GH lasted longer than 60 min after the bolus injection. Injection of...
متن کاملSystemic and renal hemodynamic changes in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle mimic early pregnancy.
Blood pressure decreases during early pregnancy in association with a decrease in peripheral vascular resistance and increases in renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate. These early changes suggest a potential association with corpora lutea function. To determine whether peripheral vasodilation occurs following ovulation, we studied 16 healthy women in the midfollicular and midluteal ...
