The purpose of this report is to describe our surgical experiences in the treatment of cerebral decompression with in situ floating resin cranioplasty. We included in this retrospective study 7 patients who underwent in situ floating resin cranioplasty for cerebral decompression between December
Testosterone is associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease. This study evaluated cardiac remodeling 60 days after myocardial infarction (MI) in rats with testosterone deficiency. One week after castration, the animals underwent myocardial infarction. Rats were divided into four
This study investigates the impact of pressure overload on vascular changes after myocardial infarction (MI) in rats. To evaluate the effect of pressure overload, MI was induced in three groups: 1) left coronary artery ligation for 1 mo (MI-1m), 2) ischemia 30 min/reperfusion for 1 mo (I/R-1m), and
Thyroid hormones were serially measured over a 2-week period in thirty-four consecutive patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). A transient increase in plasma rT3 and a decrease in plasma T3 was found, with the maximum changes occurring on the third day after the onset of AMI. The changes
An analytical electron microscopic study, utilizing scanning transmission electron microscopy and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, was made of two types of mitochondrial inclusions identified in canine myocardial infarcts. The data were obtained from thin sections of tissues that were fixed in
A 2 1/2 year old boy accidentally ingested the herbicide diquat. Progressive neurologic dysfunction preceded his death 143 hours after poisoning. Brain stem infarction and purpura were noted at post mortem and closely resembled the brain stem pathology in 3 of 7 adults who died after diquat
Injection of low-viscosity resin was used to identify in situ functional blood vessels at the margins of developing regional myocardial infarcts. The ventral interventricular branch (VIB) of the left coronary artery was occluded for 0-240 min in 20 isolated perfused rabbit hearts. After perfusion
Resin particles (diameter 45-75 microns) were labelled with 90Y, suspended in a glucose/dextran solution and infused into the kidneys of 3-month-old pigs (tumour model). Both kidneys of each animal were embolized with particles, but only one with active (90Y loaded) particles and the other, for
BACKGROUND
Intra-arterial brachytherapy with yttrium-90 (90Y) resin microspheres (radioembolization) is a procedure to selectively deliver high-dose radiation to tumors. The purpose of this research was to compare the radioembolic effect of 90Y-radioembolization versus the embolic effect of bland
Serum levels of T4, T3 rT3 and resin T3 uptake were followed for 5 days in 40 patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) allocated to early treatment either with alprenolol or placebo. There was a significant fall in T3 (P less than 0.05) and an increase in rT3 (P less than 0.05) without any
Low reliability and reproducibility in heart failure models are well established. The purpose of the present study is to explore factors that affect model consistency of myocardial infarction (MI) in mice. MI was induced by left coronary artery (LCA) ligation. The coronary artery was casted with
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to evaluate in vivo the potential anti-ischemic and antiatheromatic activity of Chios Mastic gum, the resin of the trunk and branches of "Pistacia lentiscus var. chia", used since antiquity in traditional Greek medicine. The main compounds of mastic are
Gamboge, the dried resin secreted by Garcinia maingayii (gambogic tree), was previously demonstrated to exert anti-inflammatory effects. The present study examined the effects of gambogic acid, the major active constituent of gamboge, on myocardial infarction (MI) and inflammation in a rat model and
BACKGROUND
Dragon's Blood (DB), the red resin of Dracaena cochinchinensis (Lour.) S. C., has been used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat acute myocardial infarction (AMI) for centuries. Evidence indicated that DB may exert cardio-protective effect by inhibiting inflammatory response during
This is a case report of a 19-year-old man who presented with acute myocardial infarction with obstruction of one coronary artery and rapid progression to three vessels in 8 months. He was proved to have sitosterolemia, a rare hereditary disease with plant sterol storing, resulting in juvenile
