Phaeochromocytoma with nocturnal elevation of blood pressure.
A 47-year-old woman with phaeochromocytoma showed blood pressure changes characterized by the regular appearance of hypertension at night. The urinary excretion of catecholamines and their metabolites showed augmentation roughly parallel with the elevation of the blood pressure. During normotensive periods, the urinary excretion of catecholamines and their metabolites was elevated. The findings...
متن کاملDaytime blood pressure elevation after nocturnal hypoxia.
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether nocturnal hypoxia causes daytime blood pressure (BP) elevation. We hypothesized that overnight exposure to hypoxia leads the next morning to elevation in BP that outlasts the hypoxia stimulus. We studied the effect on BP of two consecutive night exposures to hypobaric hypoxia in 10 healthy normotensive subjects. During the hypoxia nights, sub...
متن کاملNocturnal elevation of intraocular pressure in young adults.
PURPOSE To distinguish 24-hour (circadian) and postural effects on intraocular pressure (IOP) in healthy young adults. METHODS Thirty-three volunteers were housed in a sleep laboratory for 1 day under a strictly controlled 16-hour light and 8-hour dark environment. Sleep was encouraged in the dark period. Intraocular pressure was measured in each eye every 2 hours using a pneumatonometer. Res...
متن کاملTemperature elevation during medical diathermy
Two types of applicators, an inductive applicator and capacitive electrodes, are used to compute the temperature elevation during the treatment of the shoulder, hip and spine in a numerical male model (NORMAN). The used thermal model is based on the Pennes Equation and has been extended by additional thermoregulatory mechanism. The blood flow and metabolic rate are elevated as a function of the...
متن کاملThe Influence of an Increase of the Mediterranean Sea Surface Temperature on Two Nocturnal Offshore Rainbands: A Numerical Experiment
Using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) – Advanced Research WRF (ARW) mesoscale model (WRF–ARW), we investigate how two nocturnal offshore rainbands occurring in the Mediterranean basin are modified in a warmer sea surface temperature (SST). After sunset, the thermal difference between land and sea air increases. Driven by drainage winds or land breeze, the inland cold air interacts wi...
