The average survival time of patients in the malignant phase of hypertension is short-eight months according to Keith et al. (1928). There have been many reports of the effects of bilateral thoracolumbar sympathectomy on the mortality rate in. this disease. Woods and Peet (1941) recorded a survival rate of 33 per cent five years after operation and Peet and Isberg (1946) a rate of 19 per cent a...

Six littermates served as controls and received vehicle injections. A significant reduction in the pressor response to intra...
متن کاملNeonatal chemical sympathectomy attenuates fructose-induced hypertriglyceridemia and hypertension in rats.
Experiments were performed to determine the pathogenic contribution of the peripheral sympathetic nervous system to fructose-induced hypertriglyceridemia, hyperinsulinemia and hypertension in rats. Neonatal chemical sympathectomy was performed in neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats (1-week old) by administration of guanethidine (50 microg/g, i.p.) 5 times per week for consecutive 3 weeks and nerve-int...
متن کاملThe effects of twenty degree head-up tilt upon the cerebral circulation of patients with arterial hypertension before and after sympathectomy.

Twenty degree tilt was chosen because it could be tolerated for 20 minutes, as early as two weeks after the Smithwick sympathectomy. Shenkin and coworkers in 1948 reported that 200 head-up tilt did not al...
