Captopril inhibits the pulmonary toxicity of paraquat in rats
(ARNOLD, HODDER HEADLINE PLC, 2001)
Paraquat (PQ) is a herbicide that is very toxic to all living organisms. It generates free radicals and leads to acute or chronic lung injury. Free radicals are often associated with fibrogenesis, which occurs in various ...
The effects of pentoxifylline treatment on bacterial translocation after hemorrhagic shock in rats
(SPRINGER-VERLAG, 2001)
Bacterial translocation is thought to be responsible for infectious complications after hemorrhagic shock. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of pentoxifylline treatment on bacterial translocation in ...
An unusual cause of incontinence: urethral coitus
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS AS, 2001)
Megalourethra and incontinence due to urethral coitus are very rare phenomena in women. In this paper, we report two cases of urinary incontinence due to urethral coitus where there was no vaginal anomaly or dysfunction.
Relationship between bone mineral density and insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome
(SPRINGER JAPAN KK, 2001)
The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether there is a relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). The study consisted ...
Intersubband optical absorption in a quantum well under a tilted magnetic field
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD, 2001)
By using an appropriate coordinate transform we have calculated the intersubband optical absorption in the single square well under a tilted magnetic field. In this study the dependence of the intersubband transitions on ...
Relaxant effects of some benzothiazolinone derivatives on isolated rabbit corpus cavernosum
(SPRINGER-VERLAG, 2001)
In the present study, two 6-(fluorobenzoyl)-3-piperazinomethyl-2benzothiazoline ne derivatives were synthesized and their relaxant effects on isolated rabbit corpus cavernosum investigated. Compounds Y-16 and Y-21 can alter ...
Carpal tunnel syndrome leads to significant bone loss in metacarpal bones
(SPRINGER-VERLAG TOKYO, 2001)
The present study was designed to determine bone density modifications at the forearm and metacarpal bones in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured by dual-energy X-ray ...
The therapeutic effect of continuous intracisternal L-arginine infusion on experimental cerebral vasospasm
(SPRINGER-VERLAG WIEN, 2001)
Background. Recent studies on the pathogenesis of cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) suggest a breakdown of the balance between the vasoconstrictor and vasodilator systems. A shortage of a major ...
Force constant calculations for octahedral complexes of the type M(CO)(5)L, based on the CO-factored force field
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2001)
Using the maximum value of the sum of the interaction constants, the CO-factored force field of octahedral M(CO)(5)L molecules was solved to give the relations which allow direct calculation of force constants from C-O ...
Evaluation of cerebral vasospasm with transcranial magnetic stimulation: an experimental study
(SPRINGER-VERLAG, 2001)
Despite the current use of several different methods for diagnosis and follow-up of cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage, an easy, quick, reliable, and noninvasive method is still needed for evaluation of this ...
