Dorsal (PDA) and ventral aortic blood pressure (PVA) and heart rate (HR) were measured in conscious resting cod, Gadus morhua L., which has been allowed 24 h recovery from surgery. Plasma adrenalin and nonadrenalin concentrations in these fish were 3.4 and 2.2 nmoll-1 respectively, and thus lower than previously reported values from partially recovered cod. Twenty-four hours after treatment wit...

1. Blood glycolysis in vitro during a period of three hours' incubation proceeds at practically the same rate under sterile conditions and when no effort is made to prevent contamination. 2. Fresh thyroid extract, adrenalin, and phlorhizin do not contain any substances which have a constant effect upon the rate of blood glycolysis outside of the body. No evidence of the presence of an antiferme...

Complete inflow stiisis of the heart was associated with less central nervous system damage, if the heart was resuscitated with massage. Ventricular fibrillation did not occur during the period of circulatory arrest, but it was seen occasionally after the heart filled. Its incidence was increased by the use of Adrenalin and by allowing the heart to recover without massage. The administration of...

was injected. The patient did not feel any uneasiness at the time of injection, but after two or three minutes he complained of a burning sensation all over his body and his face and lips became swollen and congested, and his eyelids puffy. He showed signs of suffocation, and froth came out from his mouth. The pulse was almost imperceptible and I at once gave him an injection of solution of adr...

A particular deadly combination occurs in young athletes, which includes low magnesium intake, high calcium intake, low intake of omega‐3 fatty acids and excitotoxin food additives. Strenuous exercise—especially in extreme heat is known to deplete the body’s magnesium stores, as is consumption of carbonated drinks and taking calcium supplements. In addition, adrenalin secretion, increased durin...
