A placebo-controlled comparison of effects of repetitive doses of betamethasone and dexamethasone on lung maturation and lung, liver, and body weights of mouse pups
(INT PEDIATRIC RESEARCH FOUNDATION, INC, 2003)
The aim of this study was to compare in vivo effects of single and repetitive doses of betamethasone (BETA) and dexamethasone (DEX) administered to pregnant mice on lung maturation and lung, liver, and body weights (LLBW) ...
Comparative relaxant effects of YC-1 and DETA/NO on spontaneous contractions and the levels of cGMP of isolated pregnant rat myometrium
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2005)
This study was designed to compare the effects of YCA (3-(5-hydroxymethyl-2'-furyl)-1-benzyl indazole), a nitric oxide (NO)independent soluble guanylate cyclase activator, and diethylenetriamine-NONOate (DETA/NO), a NO ...
Effects of diazeniumdiolates (NONOates) and methylene blue on the reduction of postoperative adhesion in rats
(KARGER, 2004)
We investigated the effects of spermine NONOate (SPER/NO), diethylenetriamine NONOate (DETA/NO) and methylene blue for preventing postoperative adhesion in a rat uterine horn model. Before operations, rats were randomly ...
Comparison of effects of formoterol and BRL 37344 on isolated term-pregnant rat myometrial strips in vitro
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2006)
This study was designed to compare the effects of beta-adrenoccptoy agonists formoterol and BRL 37344 on spontaneous contractions and the levels of cAMP and cGMP of myometrial strips isolated from timed-pregnant rats. ...
Unilateral massive ovarian edema and polycystic ovaries - A case report
(ELSEVIER SCI IRELAND LTD, 2001)
Massive ovarian edema is a rare cause of ovarian enlargement in young women. We report a case in a 20-year-old woman with unilateral edema associated with the ultrasound appearance of polycystic ovary disease. Arterial and ...
Effects of 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid, anthracene-9-carboxylate, and zaprinast on endothelin-1-induced contractions of pregnant rat myometrium
(ELSEVIER SCI IRELAND LTD, 2002)
Objective: The effects of 5-nitro-2-(3-phenylpropylamino) benzoic acid (NPPB), anthracene-9-carboxylate (9-AC) (chloride channel blockers) and zaprinast (an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase-5) on endothelin-1 (ET-1) induced ...
YC-1, a nitric oxide-independent activator of soluble guanylate cyclase, inhibits the spontaneous contractions of isolated pregnant rat myometrium
(JAPANESE PHARMACOLOGICAL SOC, 2004)
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of YC-1 (3-(5'-hydroxymethyl-2'-furyl)-1-benzyl indazole) on spontaneous contractions and levels of cyclic GMP (cGMP) of myometrial strips isolated from pregnant rats. ...
Reduction of postoperative adhesions by N, O-carboxymethylchitosan and spermine NONOate in rats
(INT PRESS EDITING CENTRE INC, 2003)
Background: Postsurgical adhesions can occur following virtually all types of surgery, resulting in serious clinical complications. Therefore, prevention of adhesions is an important goal of surgical practice. A rat uterine ...
Unilateral massive ovarian edema in a woman with polycystic ovaries
(ELSEVIER SCI IRELAND LTD, 2001)
Massive ovarian edema is a rare cause of ovarian enlargement in young women. We report the case of a 20-year-old woman with unilateral massive ovarian edema with findings on ultrasound of an enlarged policystic ovary and ...
Use of methylene blue and N,O-carboxymethylchitosan to prevent postoperative adhesions in a rat uterine horn model
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2003)
Objective: To compare the anti-adhesion potential of 1% methylene blue (MB) solution and 2% N,O-carboxymethylchitosan (NOCC) gel in a rat uterine horn model. Design: Experimental animal study. Setting: University medical ...
