succinic acid/hemorrhage

Intestinal barrier dysfunction has been implicated in the development of multiorgan dysfunction syndrome (MODS) caused by the trauma-hemorrhagic shock (THS). However, the mechanisms underlying THS-induced gut barrier injury are still poorly understood. In this study, we used the metabolomics

Four aluminum compounds--nitrate, chloride, sulphate and bromide--were administered orally and intraperitoneally to rats and mice. The LD50-values (14 days) were determined. The majority of deaths occurring during the first four days. The clinical and physical signs appearing after intoxication

OBJECTIVE We report our experience with percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in children, and evaluate its early and late anatomical and functional results. METHODS A total of 65 children with renal calculi were treated with PCNL. Patient age at operation ranged from 9 months to 16 years (mean +/- SD

BACKGROUND Management of complete staghorn calculi represents a challenging problem for urologists. We describe our technique and clinical experience with modified anatrophic nephrolithotomy in patients harboring large, extensively branched staghorn calculi. METHODS From October 1996 to February

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the differences of clinical parameters and putative periodontal pathogens in sites of different probing depth (PD) reduction after non-surgical periodontal treatment in patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP). METHODS Clinical examinations including plaque index, probing

OBJECTIVE We report the results of modified anatrophic nephrolithotomy in select patients with complex staghorn calculi. METHODS From 1987 to 1997 modified anatrophic nephrolithotomy, including 1 bilateral procedure, was performed in 15 patients at San Francisco General Hospital. Preoperative

OBJECTIVE Brain mitochondria have a substantial capacity to generate reactive oxygen species after ischemia when the components of the respiratory chain are reduced and molecular oxygen is present. We tested the hypothesis that brain mitochondria in vivo produce reactive oxygen species after

In order to find out if it is possible to prevent caries and gingivitis by periodical use of chlorhexidine-fluoride mouthrinses with or without strontium, and to find out what effects they have on salivary mutans streptococci and lactobacilli counts, a total of 243 schoolchildren aged 11 yr with

OBJECTIVE To investigate 7 short chain fatty acids (SCFA) concentrations in gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) of aggressive periodontitis (AgP) and to analyze the relationship between levels of SCFA and AgP clinical parameters. METHODS GCF was collected from 152 sites of 38 AgP patients and 56 sites
