We report preliminary studies of the carotid bodies in the New Zealand strain of hypertensive rats. Female animals have a higher blood pressure than males of the same colony, but in both sexes mean arterial pressure is elevated significantly when compared to normal animals. The carotid bodies are enlarged in both the hypertensive and normotensive animals and there is no correlation between carotid body size and arterial pressure. The only structural abnormality detected in the hypertensive carotid bodies was a gross thickening of the intimal layer of the arterioles. The content of dopamine in the organs was similar in normotensives and hypertensives but the noradrenaline levels were some 50% lower in the hypotensives. These results are discussed and compared with data available for SHR animals. 相似文献

The objective of this publication is to report on the feasibility of using a tether system for obtaining data on blood pressure and heart rates of socially housed primates and to evaluate the extent to which housing environment alters cardiovascular responses (mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate). Blood pressure and heart rates of adult male baboons (Papio cynocephalus hamadryas) were evaluated over a 6 week period under three different housing conditions: social companion, individual, and socially unfamiliar. Social environment was manipulated in a specially designed cage that incorporated removable panels of either woven wire or solid sheet metal. The design of the cage permitted nonhuman primates to engage in species-typical social behaviors such as grooming and aggression. Using a tether and catheter system, we monitored cardiovascular physiology. We tested the hypothesis that individual housing, housing with social companions, and housing with social strangers would produce different mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate responses. Individual housing and housing with strangers produced resting mean arterial blood pressures that were elevated relative to blood pressure responses with social companions. Individual housing and housing with social strangers produced different patterns of cardiovascular response. Individual housing resulted in lowered heart rates and elevated blood pressures relative to the social companion condition. Housing with social strangers resulted in both elevated blood pressure and elevated heart rate, relative to the social companion condition. Responses observed during this study demonstrated the sensitivity of blood pressure and heart rates to differences in social environment. 相似文献

The influence of endurance training on functional capacity [maximal O2 consumption (VO2 max)], caudal arterial blood pressure, and myocardial capillary density were investigated in normotensive rats and rats made hypertensive using the two-kidney one-clip approach (Goldblatt's hypertension). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to sham (N: 120-140 mmHg), moderately hypertensive (MH = 0.30-mm clips, 150-170 mmHg), or severely hypertensive (SH = 0.25-mm clips, 190-230 mmHg) groups. Rats designated to be runners (T) were exercised on a motor-driven treadmill equal to 50-70% of their VO2 max values for 8-12 wk. Compared with their nontrained (NT) controls, training was associated with significantly higher VO2 max values (12-15%) and muscle cytochrome-c oxidase activities (33-78%). Resting systolic blood pressure was not significantly changed in the N-and MH-T subgroups; however, it was 20-30 mmHg higher in the SH-T subgroup. Mean absolute heart weight for only the N-T group was significantly heavier than their NT controls. However, the mean predicted heart weights (heart wt = 0.639 X body wt of N-NT + 0.001 g) of the two SH groups were significantly higher than expected. The SH-T group had a lower (11%) subepicardial capillary density mean than its NT control and significantly fewer capillaries in the subendocardial region than the other five subgroups. It was concluded that moderate exercise training appeared to be detrimental to rats with severe hypertension because it increased resting blood pressure and decreased myocardial capillary density, even though it improved their functioning capacity. 相似文献

The hemodynamic effects of a converting-enzyme inhibitor (CEI) given during 12 consecutive hours were studied in severe chronic renal hypertensive and normotensive Wistar rats. Hemodynamic parameters were obtained by thermodilution method in conscious unrestrained animals twenty-four hours after surgery. A bolus of CEI induced a significant decrease of mean arterial pressure (MAP) (from 192.2 +/- 8.2 to 163.3 +/- 5.9 mmHg, p less than 0.001) and total peripheral resistance (TPR) (from 7.69 +/- 0.53 to 5.83 +/- 0.33 mmHg.min/ml 100 g) in hypertensive animals. Cardiac index (CI) and heart rate increased significantly (p less than 0.05). Infusion of CEI to hypertensive animals during 12 consecutive hours produced a further progressive decrease in MAP and TPR (p less than 0.05) and an increase in CI (p less than 0.05). Heart rate did not change. Acute and prolonged infusions of CEI to normotensive group induced less but similar effect to those observed in hypertensive group. These results suggest that an increase of the renin-angiotensin system activity is the principal mechanism involved in the maintenance of high blood pressure during chronic phase of renal hypertension on the rats. 相似文献

This study tested the hypothesis that cardiovascular and hormonal responses to lower body negative pressure (LBNP) would be altered by 4-h head down bed rest (HDBR) in 11 healthy young men. In post-HDBR testing, three subjects failed to finish the protocol due to presyncopal symptoms, heart rate was increased during LBNP compared with pre-HDBR, mean arterial blood pressure was elevated at 0, -10, and -20 mmHg and reduced at -40 mmHg, central venous pressure (CVP) and cardiac stroke volume were reduced at all levels of LBNP. Plasma concentrations of renin, angiotensin II, and aldosterone were significantly lower after HDBR. Renin and angiotensin II increased in response to LBNP only post-HDBR. There was no effect of HDBR or LBNP on norepinephrine while epinephrine tended to increase at -40 mmHg post-HDBR (P = 0.07). Total blood volume was not significantly reduced. Splanchnic blood flow taken from ultrasound measurement of the portal vein was higher at each level of LBNP post-compared with pre-HDBR. The gain of the cardiopulmonary baroreflex relating changes in total peripheral resistance to CVP was increased after HDBR, but splanchnic vascular resistance was actually reduced. These results are consistent with our hypothesis and suggest that cardiovascular instability following only 4-h HDBR might be related to altered hormonal and/or neural control of regional vascular resistance. Impaired ability to distribute blood away from the splanchnic region was associated with reduced stroke volume, elevated heart rate, and the inability to protect mean arterial pressure. 相似文献

Blood pressure and other physiological responses in awake and anesthetized guinea pigs 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of combinations of injectable anesthetics on mean arterial blood pressure, blood gases, heart rate and respiration of the guinea pig (NIH Outbred strain) was investigated. After a 30 minute period in which baseline resting cardiorespiratory measurements were obtained, five groups of six pigmented animals having indwelling carotid cannulas were anesthetized with (a) ketamine hydrochloride (30 mg/kg, im)/xylazine (5 mg/kg, im); (b) sodium pentobarbital (15 mg/kg, ip)/fentanyl-droperidol (0.4 mg/kg, im); (c) diazepam (5mg/kg, ip)/fentanyl citrate (0.32 mg/kg, im); (d) diazepam (5 mg/kg, ip)/alphaxalone-alphadolone acetate (45 mg/kg, im); or (e) 1% alpha-chloralose-40% urethane (0.8 ml/100g, ip). Animals were not respirated artificially and no supplemental doses of anesthetic were given. Resting blood pressure in awake animals was measured over time for as long as cannulas remained patent (109 measurements). Mean resting blood pressure, for this strain of guinea pigs, was determined to be 53.1 +/- 4.2 mmHg. There was no indication that mean arterial blood pressure changed with age in animals varying in weight from 215 g to 550 g. Under diazepam/fentanyl, blood pressure rose significantly above resting level to a mean of 71.1 +/- 6.1 mmHg. With the other four combinations, blood pressure stabilized near, but below pre-anesthesia levels (ketamine/xylazine 47.1 +/- 6.8 mmHg; pentobarbital/fentanyl-droperidol, 46.9 +/- 3.2 mmHg; diazepam/alphaxalone-alphadolone, 47.8 +/- 4.8 mmHg; chloralose-urethane, 51.0 +/- 1.2 mmHg). Under diazepam/alphaxalone-alphadolone and chloralose-urethane, respiration was depressed and blood gas levels deviated from normal to the extent that artificial ventilation would be necessary to maintain an adequate physiological state. 相似文献

Sex differences in the respiratory response to hemorrhage in the conscious, New Zealand white rabbit
Strittmatter RR Schadt JC 《American journal of physiology. Regulatory, integrative and comparative physiology》2007,292(5):R1963-R1969
In conscious animals, the response to hemorrhage is biphasic. During phase 1, arterial pressure is maintained. Phase 2 is characterized by profound hypotension. Despite allied roles, less is known about the integrated cardiovascular and respiratory response to blood loss in conscious animals. We evaluated cardiorespiratory changes during hemorrhage to test the hypotheses that 1) respiratory rate (RR) and blood gases do not change during phase 1; 2) RR increases during phase 2; and 3) RR and blood gas changes during hemorrhage are similar in males and females. We measured mean arterial pressure, RR, and blood gases during hemorrhage in 16 conscious, chronically prepared, male and female New Zealand white rabbits. We removed venous blood until mean arterial pressure was < or =40 mmHg. Sex did not affect mean arterial pressure, heart rate, Pa(O(2)), Pa(CO(2)), or pH during hemorrhage or the blood loss required to induce phase 2. Pa(CO(2)) decreased significantly from 37 +/- 1 to 33 +/- 1 and 29 +/- 1 mmHg (P < 0.001) during phase 1 and 2, respectively. Before hemorrhage, Pa(O(2)) was 87 +/- 2 mmHg. Pa(O(2)) was unchanged in phase 1 (92 +/- 2 mmHg) but increased in phase 2 (101 +/- 2 mmHg; P < 0.001). Body temperature, Pv(CO(2)) (thoracic vena cava), and ventilation-perfusion mismatch (A-a gradient) were unchanged during phases 1 and 2. Neither sex increased RR during phase 1. While males doubled RR during phase 2, RR in females did not change (P < 0.001). Thus, while Pa(CO(2)) decreases in phase 1 and phase 2, the decreases are achieved in different ways across the two phases and in the two sexes. 相似文献

Autonomic dysreflexia (AD) can occur during penile vibratory stimulation in men with spinal cord injury, but this is variable, and the association with lesion level is unclear. The purpose of this study was to characterize the cardiovascular responses to penile vibratory stimulation in men with spinal cord injury. We hypothesized that those with cervical injuries would demonstrate a greater degree of AD compared with men with thoracic injuries. We also questioned whether the rise in blood pressure could be attenuated by sildenafil citrate. Participants were classified as having cervical (n = 8) or thoracic (n = 5) injuries. While in a supine position, subjects were instrumented with an ECG, and arterial blood pressure was determined beat by beat. Subjects reported to the laboratory twice and received an oral dose of sildenafil citrate (25-100 mg) or no medication. Penile vibratory stimulation was performed using a handheld vibrator to the point of ejaculation. At ejaculation during the nonmedicated trials, the cervical group had a significant decrease in heart rate (-5-10 beats/min) and increase in mean arterial blood pressure (+70-90 mmHg) relative to resting conditions, whereas the thoracic group had significant increases in both heart rate (+8-15 beats/min) and mean arterial pressure (+25-30 mmHg). Sildenafil citrate had no effect on the change in heart rate or mean arterial pressure in either group. In summary, men with cervical injuries had more pronounced AD during penile vibratory stimulation than men with thoracic injuries. Administration of sildenafil citrate had no effect on heart rate or blood pressure during penile vibratory stimulation in men with spinal cord injury. 相似文献

In the conscious rabbit, exposure to an air jet stressor increases arterial pressure, heart rate, and cardiac output. During hemorrhage, air jet exposure extends the blood loss necessary to produce hypotension. It is possible that this enhanced defense of arterial pressure is a general characteristic of stressors. However, some stressors such as oscillation (OSC), although they increase arterial pressure, do not change heart rate or cardiac output. The cardiovascular changes during OSC resemble those seen during freezing behavior. In the present study, our hypothesis was that, unlike air jet, OSC would not affect defense of arterial blood pressure during blood loss. Male New Zealand White rabbits were chronically prepared with arterial and venous catheters and Doppler flow probes. We removed venous blood until mean arterial pressure decreased to 40 mmHg. We repeated the experiment in each rabbit on separate days in the presence and absence (SHAM) of OSC. Compared with SHAM, OSC increased arterial pressure 14 +/- 1 mmHg, central venous pressure 3.3 +/- 0.4 mmHg, and hindquarter blood flow 34 +/- 4% while decreasing mesenteric conductance 32 +/- 3% and not changing heart rate or cardiac output. During normotensive hemorrhage, OSC enhanced hindquarter and renal vasoconstriction. Contrary to our hypothesis, OSC (23.5 +/- 0.6 ml/kg) increased the blood loss necessary to produce hypotension compared with SHAM (16.8 +/- 0.6 ml/kg). In nine rabbits, OSC prevented hypotension even after a blood loss of 27 ml/kg. Thus a stressful stimulus that resulted in cardiovascular changes similar to those seen during freezing behavior enhanced defense of arterial pressure during hemorrhage. 相似文献

Effects of lower body negative pressure on cardiac and vascular responses to carotid baroreflex stimulation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Brown CM Hecht MJ Neundörfer B Hilz MJ 《Physiological research / Academia Scientiarum Bohemoslovaca》2003,52(5):637-645
The aim of this study was to assess carotid baroreflex responses during graded lower body negative pressure (LBNP). In 12 healthy subjects (age 29+/-4 years) we applied sinusoidal neck suction (0 to -30 mmHg) at 0.1 Hz to examine the sympathetic modulation of the heart and blood vessels and at 0.2 Hz to assess the effect of parasympathetic stimulation on the heart. Responses to neck suction were determined as the change in spectral power of RR-interval and blood pressure from baseline values. Measurements were carried out during progressive applications (0 to -50 mmHg) of LBNP. Responses to 0.1 and 0.2 Hz carotid baroreceptor stimulations during low levels of LBNP (-10 mmHg) were not significantly different from those measured during baseline. At higher levels of LBNP, blood pressure responses to 0.1 Hz neck suction were significantly enhanced, but with no significant change in the RR-interval response. LBNP at all levels had no effect on the RR-interval response to 0.2 Hz neck suction. The unchanged responses of RR-interval and blood pressure to neck suction during low level LBNP at -10 mmHg suggest no effect of cardiopulmonary receptor unloading on the carotid arterial baroreflex, since this LBNP level is considered to stimulate cardiopulmonary but not arterial baroreflexes. Enhanced blood pressure responses to neck suction during higher levels of LBNP are not necessarily the result of a reflex interaction but may serve to protect the circulation from fluctuations in blood pressure while standing. 相似文献

Influence of a diet rich in fish oil on blood pressure, body weight and cardiac hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive rats 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effects of a diet rich in fish oil on arterial blood pressure, body weight, left ventricular weight and heart rate have been investigated in 8 month old spontaneously hypertensive male rats (SHR) as compared to age-matched hypertensive controls. A diet containing 10% fish oil decreased blood pressure by about 40 mmHg within 20 days of starting the experiment, and this effect persisted over the observation period of 80 days. Permitting the animals free access to food, the body weight of the diet group increased by 25%. The degree of hypertrophy as evaluated by relating left ventricular weight to tibial length was significantly reduced (10%) in the diet fed group. Heart rate was increased by 53%. The study demonstrates that a diet rich in fish oil can lower arterial blood pressure over several weeks without a recognizable loss in function despite a considerable increase in body weight. It can be assumed that a more marked regression of left ventricular hypertrophy is counteracted by a reflex increase in sympathetic efferentation to the heart. 相似文献

Skin surface cooling improves orthostatic tolerance through a yet to be identified mechanism. One possibility is that skin surface cooling increases the gain of baroreflex control of efferent responses contributing to the maintenance of blood pressure. To test this hypothesis, muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), arterial blood pressure, and heart rate were recorded in nine healthy subjects during both normothermic and skin surface cooling conditions, while baroreflex control of MSNA and heart rate were assessed during rapid pharmacologically induced changes in arterial blood pressure. Skin surface cooling decreased mean skin temperature (34.9 +/- 0.2 to 29.8 +/- 0.6 degrees C; P < 0.001) and increased mean arterial blood pressure (85 +/- 2 to 93 +/- 3 mmHg; P < 0.001) without changing MSNA (P = 0.47) or heart rate (P = 0.21). The slope of the relationship between MSNA and diastolic blood pressure during skin surface cooling (-3.54 +/- 0.29 units.beat(-1).mmHg(-1)) was not significantly different from normothermic conditions (-2.94 +/- 0.21 units.beat(-1).mmHg(-1); P = 0.19). The slope depicting baroreflex control of heart rate was also not altered by skin surface cooling. However, skin surface cooling shifted the "operating point" of both baroreflex curves to high arterial blood pressures (i.e., rightward shift). Resetting baroreflex curves to higher pressure might contribute to the elevations in orthostatic tolerance associated with skin surface cooling. 相似文献

Endogenous opioids have been implicated as modulators of the central nervous system regulation of blood pressure and heart rate. Whether these neuropeptides participate in blood pressure regulation in hypertension is unknown. To begin to study this question, we examined the response to opiate antagonists and agonists in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and the normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rat. The long-acting opiate antagonist naltrexone, 2.5 micrograms/kg, was injected into the lateral ventricle of the brain in awake, freely-moving SHR and produced a significant 19 mmHg decrease in mean arterial blood pressure compared to basal blood pressure (p less than 0.01); a decrease was not observed at a two logarithm lower dose. In contrast, naltrexone had no effect on the blood pressure of normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats. To evaluate a possible regulatory role for the predominantly kappa receptor active opioids, alpha- and beta-neo-endorphin, 10 micrograms each, was administered to SHR on separate days by intracerebroventricular injection. alpha- and beta-neo-endorphin caused significant decreases in mean arterial blood pressure of 11 and 9 mmHg respectively, effects reversed by pre-treatment with the opiate antagonist, naloxone. Heart rate was unaffected by any of the injected opioids or antagonists. Our naltrexone results support the hypothesis that an endogenous opioid(s) contributes to the hypertensive state of the SHR. Additionally, alpha- and beta-neo-endorphin can lower blood pressure in this model. 相似文献

The purpose of these studies was to determine if two endogenous opioids, leucine (Leu) and methionine (Met) -enkephalin, alter blood pressure and, if so, by what mechanisms. Studies from our laboratory show that intravenous administration of Leu-enkephalin in doses of 0.032–320 μg/kg induced a biphasic response in pentobarbital-anesthetized cats. A transient rise in mean arterial pressure was followed by a more prolonged decline. Administration of Met-enkephalin caused only a decline in mean arterial pressure. Neither agent significantly altered heart rate, venous pressure or the EKG. Having determined that both enkephalins altered blood pressure and observed that the responses were qualitatively different, selected pharmacological antagonists were employed to see if the alterations in blood pressure could be blocked. Naloxone blocked the hypertensive responses and antagonized the hypotensive effects seen with the administration of Leu-enkephalin. Naloxone also shifted the dose-effect curve of Met-enkephalin to the right. Diphenhydramine attenuated both the hypertensive and hypotensive responses of Leu-enkephalin. However, diphenhydramine pretreatment did not alter the decline in blood pressure seen with the higher doses of Met-enkephalin. Propranolol exerted some antagonistic activity in association with the rise in blood pressure seen with Leu-enkephalin, but propranolol did not alter the drop in pressure observed with the administration of either enkephalin. These results show that intravenous administration of the enkephalins can alter blood pressure and these effects are not alike for each enkephalin. Additionally, the enkephalins are not blocked in the same fashion by antagonists, giving support to the hypothesis that the two enkephalins interact with different receptors. 相似文献

Understanding of the factors involved in determining the level of central arterial blood pressure in mammals has been clouded by inappropriate allometric analyses that fail to account for phylogenetic relationships among species, and require pressure to approach 0 as body size decreases. The present study analyses systolic, mean arterial, and diastolic blood pressure in 47 species of mammal with phylogenetically informed techniques applied to two‐parameter equations. It also sets nonlinear, three‐parameter equations to the data to remove the assumption of the two‐parameter power equation that the smallest animals must have negligible blood pressure. These analyses show that blood pressure increases with body size. Nonlinear analyses show that mean blood pressure increases from 93 mmHg in a 10 g mouse to 156 mmHg in a 4 tonne elephant. The scaling exponent of blood pressure is generally lower than, though not significantly different from, the exponent predicted on the basis of the expected scaling of the vertical distance between the head and the heart. This indicates that compensation for the vertical distance above the heart is not perfect and suggests that the pressure required to perfuse the capillaries at the top of the body may decrease in larger species. 相似文献

The time-dependent features of red blood cell flow were evaluated with laser-Doppler flowmetry (LDF) in the left gastrocnemius muscle of 31 anesthetized New Zealand White rabbits during stepwise arterial occlusion. During the control period with a median femoral pressure of 72 mmHg, 29 animals showed minor irregular fluctuations in LDF blood flow, and only two animals displayed periodic variations of blood flow. Lowering femoral arterial pressure induced maximal periodic blood flow variations at a median pressure of 35 mmHg in all animals with a median frequency of 1.5 cycles/min (termed "slow-wave flow motion"). The median amplitude was 48% of the corresponding average flow. These slow waves disappeared at a median femoral pressure of 20 mmHg. The median LDF flow value was 4.00 arbitrary units (AU) at control pressure and 2.05 AU at maximum slow-wave flow motion. When slow-wave flow motion was seen at several pressure levels, their frequency was identical, which supports the local pacemaker concept. This study promotes a novel concept for the role and physiological significance of periodic hemodynamics in that it is a condition not characteristic for normal control situations but is activated below a specific local arterial blood pressure and flow threshold, which is known to be the lower end of autoregulation in the microcirculation of rabbit skeletal muscle. This also suggests that slow-wave flow motion is primarily under local control mechanisms. 相似文献

The cytochrome P-450 eicosanoid 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) is a potent vasoconstrictor that is implicated in the regulation of blood pressure. The identification of selective inhibitors of renal 20-HETE formation for use in vivo would facilitate studies to determine the systemic effects of this eicosanoid. We characterized the acetylenic fatty acid sodium 10-undecynyl sulfate (10-SUYS) as a potent and selective mechanism-based inhibitor of renal 20-HETE formation. A single dose of 10-SUYS caused an acute reduction in mean arterial blood pressure in 8-wk-old spontaneously hypertensive rats. The decrease in mean arterial pressure was maximal 6 h after 10-SUYS treatment (17.9 +/- 3.2 mmHg; P < 0.05), and blood pressure returned to baseline levels within 24 h after treatment. Treatment with 10-SUYS was associated with a decrease in urinary 20-HETE formation in vivo and attenuation of the vasoconstrictor response of renal interlobar arteries to ANG II in vitro. These results provide further evidence that 20-HETE plays an important role in the regulation of blood pressure in the spontaneously hypertensive rat. 相似文献

Postexercise reductions in blood pressure at rest have been reported for hypertensive subjects. To determine whether post-exercise hypotension would occur in spontaneously hypertensive rats and to test the hypothesis that any reductions would result because of decreases in regional vascular resistances, hypertensive rats (n = 19) were instrumented with indwelling arterial catheters and Doppler probes to measure regional blood flows from the iliac, superior mesenteric, and renal arteries. Data were collected from animals who performed a 20- and a 40-min treadmill test at between 60 and 70% of their maximum O2 uptake. When the animals ran for 20 min, there was a pre- to postexercise drop in mean arterial pressure (MAP) from 158 +/- 3.6 to 150 +/- 3.6 mmHg (P less than 0.05), which was recorded 30 min after the exercise had ceased. The pre- to postexercise reduction in MAP after 40 min of treadmill running was from 154 +/- 3.1 to 138 +/- 3.0 mmHg (P less than 0.05) as recorded 30 min postexercise. Postexercise heart rate was significantly lower after the 40-min exercise bout, from a preexercise mean of 351 +/- 3 beats/min to 324 +/- 5 beats/min 30 min after the treadmill had stopped. Surprisingly, marked pre- to postexercise reductions in regional vascular resistance were not observed in either the iliac, superior mesenteric, or renal vascular beds. These data demonstrated the existence of postexercise hypotension in genetic hypertensive rats and suggested that reductions in cardiac output were the primary hemodynamic mechanism for this finding. 相似文献

The circulating levels of leukotriene E4 in infants with congenital heart defects, increased pulmonary blood flow and pulmonary arterial hypertension, were determined and compared with infants with decreased pulmonary blood flow (Tetralogy of Fallot). There was no correlation (r=0.38) between the pulmonary arterial pressure (56+/-4 mmHg) and the leukotriene E4 levels (1.37+/-0.67 ng/ml blood) measured in peripheral blood samples from the hypertensive group prior to surgery. There was considerable variation in the detectable leukotriene E4 levels in blood samples from different patients. The levels detected in the blood samples between the two groups of patients was similar. These data suggest that neither the surgical repair during cardiopulmonary bypass nor the pulmonary hypertension appeared to modify the leukotriene E4 blood levels in the small number of patients studied. 相似文献

Pain is a component of traumatic blood loss, yet little is known about how pain alters the response to blood loss in conscious animals. We evaluated the effects of colorectal distension on the cardiorespiratory response to blood loss in six male and six female conscious, chronically instrumented New Zealand White rabbits. The goal of these experiments was to test the hypotheses that 1) colorectal distension would increase tolerance to hemorrhage (i.e., increase the blood loss required to decrease mean arterial pressure 相似文献
