Galanin inhibits rat pancreatic amylase release via cholinergic suppression
(Elsevier, 1992)
The effects of galanin on pancreatic exocrine function were examined using rat pancreatic tissues. In anesthetized rats, galanin (40 [mu]g/kg/h) decreased amylase secretion stimulated by 2-deoxy glucose (5.8 +/- 0.1 vs. ...
Is mammography useful in screening for local recurrences in patients with TRAM flap breast reconstruction after mastectomy for multifocal DCIS?
(Springer-Verlag; The Society of Surgical Oncology, Inc., 1998-07)
Background: Skin-sparing mastectomy with immediate transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) flap reconstruction is being used more often for the treatment of breast cancer. Mammography is not used routinely to ...
Heparin and protamine use in peripheral vascular surgery: A comparison between surgeons of the Society for Vascular Surgery and the European Society for Vascular Surgery
(Elsevier, 1994-03)
It was the intent of this study to document, in general, the patterns and complications of heparin and protamine usage during carotid endarterectomy, aortic and femoral-popliteal-tibial reconstructions for occlusive disease, ...
Stimulation of myenteric plexus neurite outgrowth by insulin and insulin-like growth factors I and II
(Elsevier, 1992)
A defined culture medium containing insulin, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) or insulin-like growth II (IGF-II) supported morphological development of myenteric plexus neurons derived from neonatal guinea pigs. Insulin ...
Inhibition of Tumor Necrosis Factor Production by Lymphocytes from Anti-TNF Antibody-Treated, Cardiac-Allografted Rats
(Elsevier, 1994-06)
Tumor necrosis factor-[alpha] (TNF) is a multifunctional cytokine involved in the immunopathologic consequences of allograft rejection. We have previously demonstrated that anti-TNF antibody treatment prolongs cardiac ...
Early pregnancy masquerading as a marker for malignancy in a young woman with curable neoplasm of the pancreas
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., 1990-01)
No Abstract.
Low oxygen delivery produced by anemia, hypoxia, and low cardiac output
(Elsevier, 1991-11)
In pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs, oxygen delivery (DO2) was measured by thermodilution cardiac output and cooximeter determined oxygen content, while oxygen consumption (VO2) was measured independently by spirometry. ...
Effect of extracorporeal life support on survival when applied to all patients with congenital diaphragmatic hernia
(Elsevier, 1994-08)
Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) has been used for neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) and respiratory failure at the authors' hospital since June 1981. In 1988, criteria for inclusion in ECLS were broadened ...
Time-related anticoagulation after regional and systemic administration of heparin in patients undergoing aortoiliac surgery
(Elsevier, 1994-09)
Heparin anticoagulation during cardiovascular surgical procedures remains poorly investigated and understood. The objective of this investigation was to assess the effectiveness of three methods of heparin administration. ...
