The pulmonary edema (PE) induced by adrenaline (AD) is similar to neurogenic pulmonary edema. Anisodamine (654-2) showed an apparent therapeutic effect on it. The pulmonary wedge arterial pressure (PAWP), carotid arterial pressure (CAP) and blood gases were measured. It was found that in PE group,
OBJECTIVE
To observe the therapeutic effect of glucose-6-phosphate polyclonal antibody (G-6-P pAb) on vasogenic brain edema (VBE) in rats.
METHODS
Sixty Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group, VBE group, mannitol-treated edema group, and G-6-P pAb-treated edema group. After
BACKGROUND
Cerebral edema is one of the major causes of mortality following cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A subunit of the sulfonylurea receptor 1-transient receptor potential M4 (Sur1-TRPM4) channel has been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia-evoked cerebral
Continued elucidation of the mechanisms of brain edema in acute liver failure (ALF) has established ammonia and the astrocyte as major players in its pathogenesis. The metabolism of ammonia to glutamine appears to be a requisite, and is followed by an osmotic disturbance in the brain, mitochondrial
An exemplary rare case of neurogenic pulmonary edema induced by intracranial hemorrhage was reported including diagnostic and therapeutic implications as well as management recommendations. A 35-year old man who was treated first by a neurosurgical approach because of a subarachnoid hemorrhage (bore
Malarial infections are uncommon in the United States and almost all reported cases stem from recent travelers coming from endemic countries. Cerebral malaria (CM) is a severe form of the disease usually affecting children and individuals with limited immunity. Despite proper management, mortality
Experimental vasogenic cerebral edema was created in rabbits with a cold-induced left occipital cortical lesions. Intracranial pressure (ICP), intracranial elastance (Em), water content, hemispheric brain tissue volume, electrolytes, electroencephalograms, behavior, and gross pathology were studied.
Conditions resulting in retinal angiogenesis and edema (exudative age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion and retinopathy of prematurity) are major causes of visual impairment, with significant impact on quality of life. There has been increasing clinical usage
The glycerol test helps to establish the differential diagnosis between Ménière's disease and other vertigo disturbances, but the test becomes very long and in its primary form informs us only about the cochlear response to the osmotic changes produced by glycerol in the inner ear, and tells us
OBJECTIVE
This study aimed to clarify whether therapeutic hypothermia protects against cerebral edema following cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in a porcine model via regulating the angiopoietin-Tie-2 ligand-receptor system.
METHODS
Male pigs were randomized into the
OBJECTIVE
To determine the feasibility of using a cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator potentiator, ivacaftor (VX-770/Kalydeco, Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Boston, MA), as a therapeutic strategy for treating pulmonary edema.
METHODS
Prospective laboratory animal
Suspected cerebral edema diabetic ketoacidosis (SCEDKA) is more common than perceived with symptoms including altered mentation, headache with vomiting, depressed Glasgow coma scale (GCS), abnormal motor or verbal responses, combativeness, and neurological depression. Suspected The effect of lisinopril (an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor) on diabetic macular edema (DME) was investigated by quantitative measurement of macular thickness. In a nonrandomized clinical trial, 19 normotensive type 2 diabetic patients with DME prospectively received oral lisinopril therapy
(1-Sarcosine, 8-isoleucine) angiotensin II was assessed as a therapeutic agent for acute respiratory distress syndrome with oleic acid pulmonary edema in sheep used as an experimental model. Under general anesthesia with controlled mechanical ventilation with 100% oxygen, 32 sheep received oleic
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the outcome of vitreolysis using intravitreal autologous plasmin (IAP) injection as a sole therapeutic modality for patients with diffuse diabetic macular edema in comparison to triamcinolone acetonide (TA).
METHODS
The study included 50 diabetic patients, 18 males and 32
