sorbitol/edema

The continuous epidural registration of intracerebral pressure showed that the pronounced brain edema which develops during the 4th to 14th day of an intracerebral hemorrhage could lead to an increase in intracerebral pressure (ICP greater than 25 mmHg) requiring treatment. During the therapy

In doses sufficient to induce a rapid osmotic loss of fluid from the bowel, sorbitol can provide an alternate method of removing fluid in patients who lack renal function. Two patients with acute pulmonary edema and oliguric renal failure were treated with a combined therapy of sorbitol and

Brain edema was induced in primates (Macaca mulatta) after regional cerebral ischemia produced by selective embolization of the internal carotid artery bifurcation. Details of the alterations in the distribution of water and electrolytes in the brain during the evolution of ischemic cerebral edema

The treatment of cerebral edema has changed during recent years. On the one hand, knowledge of the pathophysiology of brain swelling has expanded; on the other, the analysis of biodata such as intracranial pressure, cerebral blood flow, and blood volume has become routine. The methods of measuring

OBJECTIVE Absorption of hypotonic irrigating solution with consecutive severe hyponatremia is a potential risk of the endometrial rollerball ablation procedure. METHODS We report the case of a 45-year-old female, who underwent an endometrial rollerball ablation procedure. RESULTS After irrigating

Peripheral neuropathy induced by galactose feeding results in endoneurial edema with increased tissue pressure and ultimate demyelination of nerve fibers. To assess the role of ischemia in the pathogenesis of this neuropathy, nerve blood flow was measured 6 months after the start of galactose

BACKGROUND The noninvasive management of the conservative therapy for intracranial pressure (ICP) with hyperosmolar substances is a central problem in the treatment of brain edema. Using transcranial Doppler (TCD), a continuous monitoring of ICP is now possible, because the TCD pulsatility index

OBJECTIVE Compared with mannitol, the osmotherapeutic agent sorbitol is less prone to accumulate in the blood and the same quantity may be infused in a smaller volume. Because of these advantageous characteristics, we studied the pharmacokinetics of sorbitol in serum and cerebrospinal

Rutin, naturally occurring flavonoid, has reported to cover interesting multiple pharmacological properties. This study evaluated rutin or/and meloxicam effects in paw inflammation induced by formalin in mice. Mice were divided into four groups: I-Formalin group, II-Rutin 60 mg/kg (p.o.),

Intraneuronal accumulations of sorbitol and fructose have been postulated to predispose the nervous system to the cerebral edema associated with the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis. In the present study, the enzymes of the pathway for the production of sorbitol and fructose, aldose reductase and

Flavonoids have reported to cover interesting multiple pharmacological properties. This study evaluated the effect of apigenin or silymarin in paw inflammation induced by formalin in mice. Mice were divided into four groups: I: positive control group; II: apigenin, 3 mg/kg (i.p.); III: silymarin 50

OBJECTIVE To investigate the feasibility of the use of sodium lactate and sorbitol (CISS) in the fluid resuscitation for shock in patients with major burns. METHODS Fifty - three adult patients with major burns (hospitalized within 6 hours after burns) were randomly divided into A (n = 24, with i.v.

The effect of furosemide (Lasix) therapy on a standardized experimental cerebral edema, induced in rats by applying a cooling stamp to the right side of the skull over the right coronal suture by means of a stereotactic instrument, was examined. The hemispherically separated water and electrolyte
