conclusions in patients with severe preeclampsia undergoing cesarean delivery, a continuous iv infusion of nitroglycerine was able to attenuate the cardiovascular response to intubation to a greater extent than the use of sublingual nifedipine or iv hydralazine, without significant adverse effects on the newborn. results in contrast to those in group nif and group h, the patients in group ntg s...

OBJECTIVES Social evaluative threat is an important factor in the cardiovascular response to mental stress. This study examined whether Type D personality, characterized by social inhibition and negative affectivity, is associated with an adverse cardiovascular response to a non-social and social evaluative threat. METHODS A total of 2300 students were screened for Type D personality, and 130...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Energy drinks (EDs) are suspected to induce potential adverse cardiovascular effects and have recently been shown to reduce cerebral blood flow velocity (CBFV) in young, healthy subjects. Gender differences in CBFV in response to EDs have not previously been investigated, despite the fact that women are more prone to cardiovascular disturbances such as neurocardiogenic sy...

background: cirrhosis is a pathologically defined entity associated with a spectrumof characteristicmanifestations.the cardinal pathologic features reflect irreversible chronic injury of the hepatic parenchyma and include extensive fibrosis in association with the formation of regenerative nodules.autonomic dysfunction is a frequent and important complication of cirrhosis. the risk of mortality...

more than 80% cardiovascular disease (cvd) is preventable despite the fact that it is currently the ultimate cause of disability in the world. assessment of the nationwide prevalence of dyslipidemia as a major cvd risk factor is essential to efficiently conduct prevention programs. we extracted data according to the cut‑off points of dyslipidemia used in each study. all published papers on this...

introduction: cigarette smoking is a major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease and it has been identified as the single most important cause of cardiovascular accident related deaths in most countries. methods: 1573 people who lives in 17th zone of tehran (population research center of tehran university of medical sciences) were investigated by a cross- sectional study. a group of...

abstract: background and aim:cardio vascular diseases (cvds) are important cause of morbidity and mortality in world wide and constitutes a major public health problem in iran . due to increase of cvd in this contex ,the bjective of this study was to describe the prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors amony gonabad urban population. materials and methods:in this cross sectional study , a tot...

BACKGROUND Particulate air pollution is associated with cardiovascular disease. Acute phase response is causally linked to cardiovascular disease. Here, we propose that particle-induced pulmonary acute phase response provides an underlying mechanism for particle-induced cardiovascular risk. METHODS We analysed the mRNA expression of Serum Amyloid A (Saa3) in lung tissue from female C57BL/6J m...

This is the case of a 38-year-old man with history two female relatives Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and personal factors high cardiovascular risk (gender, stress, smoking, chronic consumption electronic cigarette). The patient presented tamponade due to pericardial effusion secondary Lupus-like syndrome that preceded accompanied at all times an angiosarcoma roof anterior wall right atrium. His...

The insular cortex (IC) has been reported to be involved in central cardiovascular control. In the present study, we investigated the cardiovascular responses evoked by microinjection of noradrenaline into the IC as well as the central and peripheral mechanisms involved in their mediation. Microinjection of noradrenaline into the IC (3, 7, 10, 15, 30 and 45 nmol/100 nL) caused long-lasting dose...
