The Effect of 17, B-estradiol on Uterine Blood Flow P,nd Distribution of Blood Flow by the Radioactive Microsphere Method
نویسنده
چکیده
Review of perinatal statistics at Denver General Hospital over the past decade shows (1) that perinatal mortality has dropped about 50% but (2) that the incidence of infants born weighing less than 2500 grams is still 14% which is far too high. 1971 data indicate that (1) a substantial number of mothers delivering truly premature or small-for-gestational-age infants are %ormal” and without apparent cause for either premature labor or the low infant birth weight and (2) many “normal” multiparas who deliver one such infant go on to deliver another premature or S. G.A. child in the future.

Pressure-dependent heterogeneity of renal cortical blood flow in dogs.
We determined the effect of perfusion pressure on the distribution of blood flow within the renal cortex of the anesthetized dog. Total blood flow to the denervated kidney was measured by an electromagnetic flowmeter and perfusion pressure was manipulated over the autoregulatory range (136 to 81 mm Hg) by an aortic clamp. Distribution of cortical blood flow was determined by the radioactive mic...
متن کاملRole of Estrogen Receptor-Alpha in an Experimental Model of Bronchial Asthma
Background: Use of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may increase the risk of adult-onset asthma in women. Various in vitro studies have reported that estradiol stimulates human mast cell lines causing release of allergic mediators which was not observed in estrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha) knockout mice. Thus, estrogen might be a key element in occurrence of asthma. In the present study, we p...
متن کاملLocal regulation of blood flow in the feline jejunum. A possible role for endoluminally released substance P.
Serotonin and substance P of gastrointestinal origin have been measured by radioimmunoassay in the bowel lumen under basal and stimulated conditions. To investigate the possibility that local blood flow may be influenced by these endoluminal hormones, 26 cats were studied with exogenous serotonin and substance P infused endoluminally into isolated proximal jejunal segments in vivo. Regional blo...
متن کاملEfficacy of Omega 3-6-9 fatty acids, alone or in combination with low dose aspirin, in the improvement of uterine blood flow in women with history of recurrent miscarriage: A prospective, randomized, clinical trial.
Background & Objectives: Recurrent miscarriage (RM) occurs in some women. There is much evidence that increased uterine blood flow resistance (reduced uterine perfusion) increases the risk of RM. This study was aimed at evaluating the efficacy of Omega 3-6-9 fatty acids, alone or in combination with aspirin, in the reduction of uterine blood flow resistance in women with a history of RM. Metho...
متن کاملRedistribution off Renal Intracortical Blood Flow during Dopamine Infusion in Dogs
We determined the effect of intravenous and renal intra-arterial infusion of dopamine on the distribution of intracortical blood flow in kidneys of anesthetized dogs. Total renal and renal intracortical blood flows in dogs receiving dopamine intravenously were quantified by the radioactive microsphere technique with reference sampling. In dogs receiving dopamine by renal intra-arterial infusion...
