UNLABELLED Ruptured abdominal aorta aneurysm of ten results in intraabdominal hypertension (IAH). When IAH exceeds 20 mm Hg, intestinal ischemia can result that is a common cause of severe postoperative complications, including death. THE AIM OF THE STUDY was to evaluate utility of measurement of abdominal perfusion pressure (APP) to estimate intestinal perfusion and isovolemic status in pati...

BACKGROUND Frequently, critically ill patients suffer from intraabdominal pathology, such as sepsis or ischemia, either as a cause of a critical illness or as a complication from another illness requiring an intensive care unit (ICU) admission. These complications are associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality (between 50% to 100%). The diagnosis of these problems can be difficult in...

OBJECTIVE Circulating GH-binding protein (GHBP) is produced by proteolytical cleavage of the extracellular part of the GH receptor (GHR) and is positively correlated to the amount of body fat. To test the hypothesis that adipose tissue may contribute to the production of circulating GHBP, we compared gene expression of two GHR isoforms in adipose tissue with serum GHBP concentrations in healthy...

The stomach forms at about 4 weeks after conception by the development of a spindle-shaped dilatation of the foregut caudal to the esophagus. The stomach descends into the abdomen at about 6 to 7 weeks after conception, and by 11 weeks the muscles in its wall are developed. Visualization with ultrasound is possible as early as the 9th week of menstrual age. Different parts of the gastric anatom...
