Role of voltage-gated potassium channels in pathogenesis of chronic pulmonary heart disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

The influence of hypoxia on the activity of voltage-gated potassium channel in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) of rats and its roles in the pathogenesis of chronic pulmonary heart disease were investigated. Eighty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated into control group

Total body potassium in cor pulmonale.

Only registered users can translate articles

Total body potassium was measured in 12 patients with cor pulmonale, by determination of potassium-40, a naturally occurring radioisotope. In all subjects the observed value of total body potassium showed no significant depletion when compared with that predicted from height and age. All previous

[The drug therapy of chronic cor pulmonale].

Only registered users can translate articles

Chronic cor pulmonale is defined as right heart hypertrophy or right ventricular dilatation and/or chronic right heart failure. There are many etiologies which largely determine mortality and drug therapy, but the common cause is increased right ventricular work from primary or secondary pulmonary

[Ventricular arrhythmias in patients with cor pulmonale].

Only registered users can translate articles

This paper reported the results of 24 hours continuous ECG, day time and overnight arterial blood gas/pH and serum electrolytes in 20 patients with cor pulmonale, in order to investigate the rule of changes of ventricular arrhythmias (VA). The results were as follows: (1) Incidence of VA in 24 hours

[Effectiveness of prestarium in the treatment of chronic cor pulmonale].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To study efficiency and safety of application of perindopril (prestarium) in patients with chronic cor pulmonale (CCP). METHODS The trial included 26 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease complicated with CCP and cardiac failure of NYHA class II-III. The study group of 16

The effect of protein kinase C on voltage-gated potassium channel in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells from rats exposed to chronic hypoxia.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Chronic hypoxia can cause pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary heart disease with high mortality. The signal transduction pathway of protein kinase C (PKC) plays an important role in chronic pulmonary hypertension. So it is necessary to investigate the effect of PKC on voltage-gated

Potassium studies in chronic obstructive airways disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

Seventeen male patients with chronic obstructive airways disease in remission were separated into two groups according to arterial carbon dioxide tensions. Hypercapnia was associated significantly with hypoxia and increased red cell volume whereas normocapnia was not. Normocapnic patients were

Implication of Potassium Channels in the Pathophysiology of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

Only registered users can translate articles

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare and severe cardiopulmonary disease without curative treatments. PAH is a multifactorial disease that involves genetic predisposition, epigenetic factors, and environmental factors (drugs, toxins, viruses, hypoxia, and inflammation), which contribute to

Endocrine and metabolic studies in unstable cor pulmonale.

Only registered users can translate articles

Serum testosterone, follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinising hormone, and dihydro-epiandrosterone concentrations rose significantly in seven men studied during recovery from a severe exacerbation of chronic obstructive airways disease. Urinary 17-ketosteroids also rose significantly though serum

Body weight and body water in chronic cor pulmonale.

Only registered users can translate articles

1. Body weight was measured through forty consecutive illnesses in seventeen patients with oedema in association with chronic bronchitis and hypoxia. All patients were taking diuretic drugs at the time. 2. Body weight increased little as peripheral oedema and a raised jugular venous pressure

Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction.

Only registered users can translate articles

Humans encounter hypoxia throughout their lives. This occurs by destiny in utero, through disease, and by desire, in our quest for altitude. Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is a widely conserved, homeostatic, vasomotor response of resistance pulmonary arteries to alveolar hypoxia. HPV

The application of 120-W high-performance system GreenLight laser vaporization of the prostate in high-risk patients.

Only registered users can translate articles

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 120-W potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser vaporization in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) who also had cardiopulmonary diseases who were taking long-term anticoagulants and were at high risk of bleeding
