Atrial natriuretic peptide, altitude and acute mountain sickness.
1. To investigate the mechanisms of acute mountain sickness, 22 subjects travelled to 3100 m by road and the following day walked to 4300 m on Mount Kenya. Control measurements were made over 2 days at 1300 m before ascent and for 2 days after arrival at 4300 m. These included body weight, 24 h urine volume, 24 h sodium and potassium excretion, blood haemoglobin, packed cell volume, and symptom...
متن کاملEvaluation of Serum Levels of N-terminal Pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide and Atrial Natriuretic Peptide in Neonates with Respiratory Distress
Background: Acute respiratory distress (ARD) is a critical respiratory failure due to lung injury of neonates leading to the clinical appearance of poor lung compliance. The aimed of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic values in differentiating respiratory from heart diseases with using of N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) and Atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) in neonates...

متن کاملRed Cell Diphosphoglycerate Mutase
Diphosphoglycerate mutase (DPGM) was purified to homogeneity from human erythrocytes. The enzyme and Freund adjuvant were infected into chickens and yielded a monospecific precipitating antibody. Radial immunodiffusion with this antibody was used to measure the amount of DPGM in hemolysates from human adult and cord red cells. Dog, rabbit, rat, chicken, and goat red cells all had DPGM during th...
متن کاملChronic Mountain Sickness
Introduction Chronic mountain sickness (CMS) affects people who are native or long time residents of high altitude. It is characterized by an excessive erythrocytosis for the altitude of residence, severe hypoxemia and in many cases, particularly in severe CMS, high altitude pulmonary hypertension (HAPH). CMS usually begins insidiously in adult life associated probably to aging; the clinical pi...
