متن کاملThe Perioperative Period
Therefore this chapter will first focus on aspects of acid-base physiology that are relevant to most anesthesiologists. It will become clear that acid-base disorders may have a major clinical impact both on the patient scheduled for anesthesia and anesthetic drugs. But even more importantly, many clinical interventions by anesthesiologists may actually profoundly influence [H+] itself. The impo...
متن کاملNew Auroras on the Roles of the Chromosomal Passenger Complex in Cytokinesis: Implications for Cancer Therapies
The chromosomal passenger complex (CPC), composed of a kinase component, Aurora B, the scaffolding subunit inner centromeric protein, Borealin, and Survivin, is a key regulator of cell division. It controls multiple events, from chromosome condensation in prophase to the final separation or abscission of the two daughter cells. The essential functions of the CPC during metaphase, however, have ...
متن کاملPotassium in the perioperative period.
Potassium ions play a vital role at a cellular level. These ions are actively transported into cells, causing an electrical imbalance and a build up of potential energy. When this energy is released following correct stimulation, the cells perform their designated functions. When these functions relate mainly to the heart and skeletal muscles, nerve and renal activity, the importance of potassi...
