OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of mannitol and melatonin on brain edema secondary to trauma using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
METHODS
A mild traumatic brain injury with the Feeney method was performed upon twelve New Zealand rabbits. Three hours after the trauma was
The authors investigated the pharmacokinetics of mannitol administered for treatment of vasogenic cerebral edema. A cortical cold injury was produced in 23 cats maintained under general anesthesia for 5 or 21 hours. Control animals received no mannitol, while treatment groups received either a
After administration of mannitol, an osmotic diuretic, edema of the stria vascularis occurs, which is morphologically indistinguishable from the stria edema observed after administration of loop-inhibiting diuretics. Similar edema also was observed after glycerin administration. Both mannitol and
Mannitol is frequently used to reduce elevated intracranial pressure often associated with brain edema. In cases of a damaged blood-brain barrier, however, mannitol might aggravate vasogenic cerebral edema, as has recently been stressed. The aim of this study was to investigate whether multiple
OBJECTIVE
Repeated administration of mannitol in the setting of large hemispheric infarction is a controversial and poorly defined therapeutic intervention. This study was performed to examine the effects of multiple-dose mannitol on a brain edema after large hemispheric infarction.
METHODS
A middle
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of a single large dose of mannitol on midline tissue shifts after a large cerebral infarction.
BACKGROUND
Theoretically, mannitol use in the largest cerebral infarctions may preferentially shrink noninfarcted cerebral tissue, thereby aggravating midline tissue shifts
UNASSIGNED
Mannitol has been used intravenously for decreasing cerebral edema since decades. The study was performed to evaluate the effect of its irrigation on edema in live rats. Edema was induced by artificial brain injury. We hereby present our results on the same using live rats and confirm its
The study included 22 patients with meningoencephalitis and hypertensive cranial syndrome from cerebral edema. Mannitol was given to 13 cases and dexamethasone to 9. There were three therapeutic failures in the group given mannitol and none in that of dexamethasone (p greater than 0.05). Both drugs
BACKGROUND
Current guidelines state that osmotic therapy is reasonable in patients with clinical deterioration from cerebral infarction-related cerebral edema. However, there are limited data on the safety and efficacy of this therapy. We aimed to evaluate the effect of mannitol on the outcome of
BACKGROUND
Hypertonic saline and mannitol are commonly used in the treatment of cerebral edema and elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) at present. In this connection, 10% hypertonic saline (HS) alleviates cerebral edema more effectively than the equal volume of 20% mannitol. However, the exact
Cerebral edema is a sometimes fatal complication of diabetic ketoacidosis which occurs unpredictably and when biochemical parameters show improvement. A case of a young, newly diagnosed insulin-dependent diabetic boy who developed this complication while receiving a low-dose continuous insulin
Albino rabbits that had undergone a cryogenic insult over the left parieto-occipital cortex were analyzed for serum osmolality, serum electrolytes, brain water content, and intracranial pressure (ICP) following either a baseline infusion of intravenous (i.v.) fluid (45 mL total) for 3 hours or
OBJECTIVE
To observe the therapeutic efficacy of Modified Taohe Chengqi Granule (MTCG) combined mannitol for treating complicated edema in affected limbs of patients after tibiofibulas double fracture operation (TDFO).
METHODS
Totally 64 TDFO patients complicated edema were randomly assigned to the
OBJECTIVE
To analyse the influence of mannitol added to Krebs-Henseleit (KH) solution on the myocardium edema and myocardial function.
METHODS
Isolated rat heart under isovolumetric contractions studied according to Langendorff's technique were perfused with KH solution at constant flow during 90
Loop diuretics interfere with NaCl-KCl cotransport, which operates not only in the kidney but as well in a variety of nonepithelial cells including neuronal and glial cells. In these cells loop diuretics are able to reduce cellular volume. The present study has been performed to establish, whether
