introduction: the relation between morphine and nitric oxide release has been shown. due to important role of nitric oxide in regulation of skin blood flow, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of nitric oxide synthase inhibitor (l-name) and nitric oxide synthesis precursor (l-arginine) on skin blood flow of intact and morphine-dependent rats. methods: skin blood flow of hind paw...

introduction: endothelium and smooth muscle dysfunction are the most important complications of diabetes. in type 1 diabetic patients, absence of insulin leads to vasoconstriction and lower skin blood perfusion. release of some mediators by endothelium which is induced by insulin causes vasodilation, but the exact mechanism of insulin vasodilatory effect is not detected properly. at present stu...

objective(s): nucleus raphe magnus (nrm) that is involved in the regulation of body temperature contains nitric oxide (no) synthase. considering the effect of no on skin blood flow control, in this study, we assessed its thermoregulatory role within the raphe magnus. materials and methods: to this end, tail blood flow of male wistar rats was measured by laser doppler following the induction of ...

Previous studies have shown that electrical stimulation (ES) increases blood flow, but the exact mechanisms are not clear. The present study was designed to clarify some of the underlying mechanisms involved in this phenomenon. White adult rabbits Lt.-6 months old were used. Animals were anesthetized by sodium pentobarbital (40 mg/kg, IV) and skin blood flow in the thoracic back was recorde...

Background:Autonomic disturbance can leads to blood flow changes that can be studied by various methods. Objective: To assess the blood flow changes in patients with severe carpal tunnel syndrome  by laser Doppler flowmetry Methods:Ten patients with severe unilateral carpal tunnel syndrome confirmed by electrodiagnostic examination enrolled in this study. Patients comprised one man and nine wom...
