In this study, the authors hypothesized that in acute ischemic strokes, more permeable intracranial arterial thrombi (as opposed to less permeable thrombi) could be associated with better clinical outcomes and improved response to intra-arterial therapy. The authors examined the attenuation increase on computed tomographic angiography (CTA) and void fraction, using combination of noncontrast co...

The effects of tight junction structure on water and solute fluxes across proximal tubular epithelium were examined with fiber-matrix equations previously derived by Curry and Michel (1980. Microvascular Research. 20:96-99). Using plausible estimates of tight junction fiber length and width the model predicts solute (Ps) and water permeability (Lp) coefficients that agree with the measured valu...

INTRODUCTION C-peptide measurement in blood or 24-h urine samples provides useful information regarding endogenous insulin secretion, but problems related to the rapid degradation of C-peptide in blood and difficulty of 24-h urine collection have limited widespread routine clinical use of this test. We assessed the feasibility of measuring urinary C-peptide (UCP) with correction for creatinine ...
