We focused on the first demonstration that antiarrhythmics, particularly class II and III antiarrhythmic beta-blocker sotalol can induce severe occlusion/occlusion-like syndrome in rats. In this syndrome, as similar syndromes with permanent occlusion of major vessels, peripheral central, other noxious procedures severely disable endothelium function, stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157-coll...

BACKGROUND The aims of this study were to establish the optimum duration of blood flow occlusion to obtain maximal response and to compare the response after lower-arm and upper-arm occlusion. METHODS Pulse wave amplitude was analysed using a novel finger plethysmograph (EndoPat; Itamar). For measuring reactive hyperaemic index (RHI) induced by forearm cuff occlusion, 30 healthy subjects were...

BACKGROUND Endovascular therapy (EVT) with stent retrievers in addition to i.v. thrombolysis (IVT) has proven effective in acute stroke patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA, M1 segment) and distal internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion. Limited data exist concerning acute cervical ICA occlusion, either alone or in combination with intracranial ICA occlusion (tandem occlusion). Therefore w...

Introduction: The objective of this study was to gather information about normal occlusion and arch dimensions in the primary teeth of the children belonging to an Iranian population. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 68 children from the city of Mashhad in the 3-5 age range. Dental arch dimensions, interrelationships of primary canine and second molars, overbite ...

conclusion coil embolization showed successful outcomes in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms with a low complication rate. results immediately after the procedure, the total occlusion was seen in 76 (86.4%), subtotal occlusion in six (6.8%), and partial occlusion in six patients (6.8%). there was no significant relationship between the aneurysm size, aneurysm neck size, and location of th...

Face masks present a new challenge to face identification (here matching) and emotion recognition in Western cultures. Here, we the results of three experiments that test effect masks, also sunglasses (an occlusion individuals tend have more experienced with) on (i) familiar matching, (ii) unfamiliar matching (iii) categorization. Occlusion reduced accuracy all tasks, with most errors mask cond...
