Comparative hemodynamic effects of selective superior mesenteric arterial and peripheral intravenous glucagon infusions
(Elsevier, 1985-09)
This experiment was designed to determine whether any hemodynamic benefits attend administration of equal pharmacologic doses of glucagon (1 [mu]g/kg/m) by continuous intravenous infusion (Group I, n = 6) versus selective ...
Altered baroreceptor function in children with systolic hypertension after coarctation repair
(Elsevier, 1983-07)
To determine whether altered baroreceptor function may contribute to systemic hypertension after coarctation of the aorta (C of A) repair, baroreceptor function was evaluated in 6 children with repaired C of A mild arm ...
Connective tissue activation. XVII. Radioimmunoassay of a human platelet derived connective tissue activating peptide (CTAP-III) and specificities of anti-CTAP-III sera
(Elsevier, 1980-12-22)
The platelet-derived connective tissue activating peptide (CTAP-III) has been shown to be an important factor stimulating the metabolism and proliferation of human connective tissue cell strains, including synovial tissue ...
Transient atrioventricular block resulting from left ventricular angiography in infants with ventricular septal defect
(Elsevier, 1989-07-01)
Conduction disturbances often occur with manipulation of catheters within the atria or ventricles during cardiac catheterization.1,2 Catheter movement may induce transient right or left bundle branch block, or complete ...
Thresholds for transesophageal atrial pacing
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1984)
To determine the thresholds for transesophageal atrial capture, as well as factors that may influence the thresholds, we measured the minimal current and pulse width required to pace the atria through transesophageal bipolar ...
Primary preventive health care in children with heart disease
(Springer-Verlag, 1983-10)
In order to evaluate the preventive health care practices in children with heart disease, 499 families were surveyed in outpatient settings. Data were collected on 215 children with heart disease and 284 control children ...
Immunity in dilated cardiomyopathy
(Springer-Verlag, 1985-03)
Although several immunologic parameters have been found to be abnormal, their precise relationship to the cause of the disease remains unclear. It is believed that a virus initiating a bout of myocarditis may play a role ...
Surgical management of children and young adults with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome
(Springer-Verlag, 1988-12)
The Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome, as originally described, includes palpitations, tachycardia, and an abnormal electrocardiogram (short PR interval and wide QRS complex). The clinical manifestations are dependent upon a ...
