Decreased systemic polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) rolling without increased PMN adhesion in peritonitis at remote sites.

BACKGROUND Previous in vitro studies have demonstrated that the host response to intra-abdominal infection produces increased generalized polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) adherence to vascular endothelial cells (ECs), which may lead to subsequent endothelial damage, leaky capillaries, and organ dysfunction. There are scant data to demonstrate this enhanced systemic PMN adherence in vivo or th...

Growth and Characterization on PMN-PT-Based

Lead magnesium niobate—lead titanate (PMN-PT) single crystals have been successfully commercialized in medical ultrasound imaging. The superior properties of PMN-PT crystals over the legacy piezoelectric ceramics lead zirconate titanate (PZT) enabled ultrasound transducers with enhanced imaging (broad bandwidth and improved sensitivity). To obtain high quality and relatively low cost single cry...

Anorexia nervosa and polymorphonuclear (PMN) granulocyte reactions.

10 patients with anorexia nervosa were compared with controls with normal weight, regarding their peripheral blood polymorphonuclear (PMN) granulocyte reactions. The anorexia patients showed a statistically significant decrease in PMN bactericidal capacity and PMN adherence. The mean chemotaxis did not differ, but in two of the anorexia patients chemotaxis was almost absent. The intracellular a...
