Forty seven healthy young volunteers underwent defecographic examination to determine the range of normal findings. Normality was shown to encompass radiological features often considered pathological. These features included broad ranges of anorectal angle and pelvic floor descent which overlap with reported pathological states. Furthermore, the formation of rectocoeles during defecation was a...

متن کاملSerotonin indices and impulsivity in normal volunteers.
Hormonal responses to oral paroxetine were examined in a group of healthy subjects. The calcium response to serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5HT), mediated by platelet 5HT2A, was also measured. Paroxetine elicited a cortisol response that was directly correlated with the magnitude of platelet calcium response. The cortisol response was also correlated with the trait of impulsivity. These results...
متن کاملDefecography: a practical approach.
The purpose of this pictorial essay is to describe the main morpho- functional imaging features, physiological and pathological, of the recto-anal region and pelvic floor as depicted with conventional video defecography. Defecography has dramatically improved our knowledge of dysfunctions of evacuation. The most frequent indications and related disorders are presented from a database of more th...
متن کاملAmantadine Aerosols in Normal Volunteers: Pharmacology
The acceptability and pharmacology of intermittent aerosol administration of amantadine was assessed in healthy volunteers. Amantadine solutions of 2.5, 1.5, or 1.0 g/100 ml were used for 12 30-min, twice-daily aerosol treatments in 15 subjects. Overall, the aerosol treatments were well tolerated. During and up to 1 h after aerosol exposures, nasal irritation, rhinorrhea, dysgeusia, or a combin...
