Aging and cardioprotection.
Advanced age is a strong independent predictor for death, disability, and morbidity in patients with structural heart disease. With the projected increase in the elderly population and the prevalence of age-related cardiovascular disabilities worldwide, the need to understand the biology of the aging heart, the mechanisms for age-mediated cardiac vulnerability, and the development of strategies...
متن کاملRole of acute viral hepatitis as a confounding factor in antituberculosis treatment induced hepatotoxicity.
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Drug induced hepatotoxicity (DIH) is an important and commonly encountered adverse effect with antituberculosis (anti-TB) treatment. Acute viral hepatitis (AVH) is an important confounding reason which clinically, biochemically and histologically mimics DIH. METHODS The contributory role of acute viral hepatitis as a confounding factor in patients with normal baseline l...
متن کاملIdentifying the Source of a Humoral Factor of Remote (Pre)Conditioning Cardioprotection
Signalling pathways underlying the phenomenon of remote ischaemic preconditioning (RPc) cardioprotection are not completely understood. The existing evidence agrees that intact sensory innervation of the remote tissue/organ is required for the release into the systemic circulation of preconditioning factor(s) capable of protecting a transplanted or isolated heart. However, the source and molecu...
متن کاملAdenosine-mediated cardioprotection in the aging myocardium.
With aging, it appears the heart's ability to withstand injury declines markedly. Unfortunately, the incidence of ischemic disorders increases dramatically with age. Though the genesis of the ischemia-intolerant phenotype is incompletely understood (and likely multi-factorial), it may involve changes in intrinsic cardioprotective responses. In this respect we and others have interrogated the ro...
متن کاملAging as a factor in the renal hemodynamic changes induced by a standardized pyrogen.
The functional and anatomic changes of the kidney associated with increasing age have been demonstrated convincingly. The evaluation of renal function in aged persons has demonstrated a progressive decrease in the urea clearance (1), glomerular filtration rate, effective renal plasma flow, and renal tubular transfer maxima (2, 3). These decreases in function fit well with the anatomic studies w...
