Cardiovascular manifestations in COPD include increased arterial stiffness, ischemic heart disease, chronic heart failure and cor-pulmonale. Some studies suggest that right ventricular (RV) dysfunction occurs in early sta...
متن کاملEndogenous Estrogen Attenuates Hypoxia-Induced Pulmonary Hypertension by Inhibiting Pulmonary Arterial Vasoconstriction and Pulmonary Arterial Smooth Muscle Cells Proliferation
Exogenous estrogen was shown to exert various beneficial effects on multiple diseases including hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension (HPH). However, the effect of endogenous estrogen on HPH was seldom investigated. In the present study, we explored the protective effects and mechanisms of endogenous estrogen on hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension. Male, female, pregnant and ovariectomized ...
متن کاملTHE SUBACUTE EFFECTS OF CADMIUM ON SEX HORMONES IN FEMALE RATS
Toxic effects of trace elements upon the hypothalamic- pituitarytesticular axis and sex hormones have been reported in recent years. It is generally considered that CdCl2 poisoning causes histopathological changes in the testicles of male rats. Little attention had been drawn to the possible toxic effects of CdCl2 on the ovary and female sex hormones. The purpose of the present study was t...
متن کاملRight ventricular Hemodynamic Alteration after Pulmonary Valve Replacement in Children with Congenital Heart Disease
Introduction: In patients who underwent surgery to repair Tetralogy of Fallot, right ventricular dilation from pulmonary regurgitation may be result in right ventricular failure, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Hence, pulmonary valve replacement may be necessary to reduce right ventricular volume overload. The aim of present study was to assess the effects of pulmonary valve replacement on rig...
