this study aimed at investigating the variations of blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen consumption and their relationship with body lipid profile in active and inactive students. 10 active students (mean age 21 yr, weight 68.1 kg and height 174.1 cm) and 10 inactive students (mean age 21.5 yr, weight 73.07 kg and height 177 cm) from shahid rajaee teacher training university who volunteered t...

Leukotriene D4, a constituent of slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis, elicits a pressor response followed by hypotensive shock in spontaneously hypertensive rats but not in other rats. Hemodynamic mechanisms underlying this pattern in spontaneously hypertensive rats, pithed and vagotomized to eliminate circulatory reflexes, were studied using radiolabeled microspheres. One minute after leuko...

background there have been many concerns about alteration in hemodynamic parameters within and shortly after endotracheal intubation (eti) in patients scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass grafting (cabg). objectives we compared the attenuation effect of magnesium sulfate and lidocaine on hemodynamic responses after eti, in patients undergoing cabg. patients and methods in this randomiz...

Purpose: To investigate the clinical benefit of dexmedetomidine (DEX) when used in combination with dezocine as epidural anesthesia during cesarean delivery for puerperae gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods: A total 120 GDM admitted to The Fourth Hospital Shijiazhuang (Obstetrics and Gynecology Affiliated Hebei Medical University, City, China) who underwent from January 2019 2020 were r...

Quantitative diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) offers a valuable tool to probe the microstructural changes in neural tissues in vivo, where absolute quantitation accuracy and reproducibility are essential. It has been long recognized that measurement of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) using DTI could be influenced by the presence of water molecules in cerebrovasculature. However, little is kn...

BACKGROUND During labor, ephedrine is widely used to prevent or to treat maternal arterial hypotension and restore uterine perfusion pressure to avoid intrapartum fetal asphyxia. However, the effects of ephedrine on uterine blood flow have not been studied during uterine contractions. The purpose of the study was to assess the effects of ephedrine on uterine artery velocities and resistance ind...

Hemodynamic instability after brain death is an universal clinical problem with effects on potential donor organs. Actual shortage of potential donor hearts continues to raise controversial discussion about adequate donor management with regard to graft quality. From the mid eighties numerous studies investigated the effects of brain death on the cardiocirculatory system and other organs. It co...

PURPOSE To examine possible hemodynamic alterations in adolescent to adult Marfan syndrome (MFS) patients with aortic root dilatation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Four-dimensional flow MRI was performed in 20 MFS patients and 12 age-matched normal subjects with a 3T system. The cross-sectional areas of 10 planes along the aorta were segmented for calculating the axial and circumferential wall shear...

The purpose of the current study was to investigate whether or not the FABP2 gene polymorphism modulated obesity indices, hemodynamic factor, blood lipid factor, and insulin resistance markers through 12-week aerobic exercise training in abdominal obesity group of Korean mid-life women. A total of 243 abdominally obese subjects of Korean mid-life women voluntarily participated in aerobic exerci...
