Survival of Verapamil-Poisoned Rats Treated with Triiodothyronine

Outcome of Paraquat Poisoned Patients Treated with a Commonly Used Therapeutic Flowchart: A Case Series

Background: Paraquat poisoning is a medical emergency challenge due to its inherent severe toxicity and unavailability of specific antidote for it. In this paper, a series of patients who were treated according to a commonly used treatment flowchart are presented. Methods: This prospective observational study was carried out on paraquat poisoned patients admitted to District Hospital, Chamaraj...

Release of Free Fatty Acids by Adipose Tissue from Rats Treated with Triiodothyronine or Propylthiouracil.

Survival of tumor allografts in rats treated with antithymocyte serum.

Considerable evidence now exists to indicate that tumors in man and animals can provoke a host immune response against the tu m or1,2. Trans­ plantable animal tumors avail themselves readily to further our knowledge in the study of the rejection phenomenon. Thus an antigenic tumor could, if induced to grow in an allogeneic animal whose rejection mechanisms had been suppressed by anti­ thymocyte...

Serum vasoactive agents in rats poisoned with cadmium.

OBJECTIVES Mechanisms of the vascular effect of cadmium vary and involve nervous, hormone and intracellular signaling pathways. However, it is still not clear if mechanisms of the vascular effect of cadmium (Cd) include changes in the synthesis or release of vasoactive agents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of subchronic Cd poisoning on blood nitric oxide or endothelin in bloo...

Hypertensive Heart Transplant Recipients Treated With Enalapril, Furosemide, and Verapamil

Background. This prospective study was designed to examine whether left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy of the denervated transplanted heart may be reversed by medical therapy and, if so, to investigate the time course of this process and its effect on exercise capacity, myocardial function, and cardiac hemodynamics. Methods and Results. Ten hypertensive heart transplant recipients with LV hypertr...
