| [renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in hypertension patients who have had a cerebral stroke]. | the study of the renin activity and aldosterone concentrations in the blood plasma has revealed activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (raas) in patients with stage iii essential hypertension and a history of 1-3-year-old cerebral stroke. middle-aged patients demonstrated high activity of renin and high levels of aldosterone whereas elderly patients presented a moderate rise in renin activity and elevated aldosterone levels. the data obtained indicate a decrease in the endocrine ... | 2011 | 3321797 |
| insulin resistance and abnormal ovarian responses to human chorionic gonadotropin in chronically anovulatory women. | we studied the interrelationships between insulin resistance, obesity, and abnormal ovarian androgen secretion in chronically anovulatory women with clinical or biochemical evidence of hyperandrogenism. four groups of six subjects each were studied: (1) normal weight (within 10% ideal body weight) anovulatory, (2) obese (greater than 120% ideal body weight) anovulatory, (3) normal weight eumenorrheic, and (4) obese eumenorrheic. after dexamethasone suppression, human chorionic gonadotropin (2000 ... | 1987 | 3322017 |
| connective tissue responses in blacks in relation to disease: further observations. | additional information is presented in support of the hypothesis (polednak: am. j. phys. anthropol. 41:49-58, 1974) that in some black populations certain connective-tissue responses, which are involved in protection against infection and repair after injury, also may predispose to specific chronic diseases. these diseases include some autoimmune disorders (i.e., systemic lupus erythematosus, sarcoidosis, and scleroderma) and various benign and malignant tumors involving connective-tissue cells. ... | 2010 | 3322033 |
| effect of intestinal factors on extraction of insulin in perfused rat liver. | to study the direct effect of intestinal factors on hepatic extraction of insulin, an investigation was made into the extraction of insulin from isolated rat liver perfused with portal venous effluent (pve) obtained from the isolated perfused rat intestine. rat intestine was perfused with krebs-ringer bicarbonate medium for 45 min, and the pve was collected from glucose-, lipid-, or nacl-treated and untreated control intestines. the pve, after adjustment of its glucose (180 mg/dl) and insulin (2 ... | 1987 | 3322037 |

| [effect of anaprilin on the clinical course of stenocardia and the carbohydrate metabolic indices of ischemic heart disease patients in relation to the nature of their glucose tolerance]. | fourteen-day anaprilin treatment of coronary patients with varying glucose tolerance has demonstrated that the drug's therapeutic efficiency was greater in patients with normal glucose tolerance. anaprilin caused a moderate drop in baseline glucose level and considerably limited the degree of hyperglycemia in response to the glucose tolerance test in coronary patients with abnormally low glucose tolerance. insulin content was virtually unaffected by the drug, irrespective of the type of glucose ... | 1991 | 3327995 |
| essential thrombocythemia in pregnancy. | a 32-year-old women with essential thrombocythemia and a history of bleeding completed a full-term pregnancy. during pregnancy, the platelet count declined markedly to near-normal levels, but returned to prepregnancy levels within two weeks after delivery. the clinical course was uneventful, except for two brief episodes of vaginal bleeding during the second trimester. possible etiologic mechanisms for pregnancy-related reduction of platelet levels in thrombocythemia include increased platelet c ... | 2012 | 3347444 |
| hematology, intestinal parasites, and selected disease antibodies from a population of bobcats (felis rufus) in central arkansas. | eight bobcats with adjoining or overlapping home ranges were examined. hematological values were within previously reported ranges. six bobcats demonstrated antibody titers to toxoplasma gondii. isospora spp., taenia taeniaeformis, spirometra mansoides, physoloptera rara, toxocara cati, strongyloides spp., trichurus spp., capillaria spp., and ancyclostoma spp. were found also in the animals examined. the mean number of parasite species per host was 4.1. all bobcats tested negative for serum anti ... | 1988 | 3352091 |

| hypophosphatemia-associated respiratory muscle weakness in a general inpatient population. | although hypophosphatemia has been implicated as a cause of respiratory failure, its impact on respiratory muscle function in patients hospitalized for other reasons remains to be determined. maximal inspiratory pressures (mip) and maximal expiratory pressures (mep) were measured at the bedside in 23 hospitalized patients with serum phosphate levels less than 2.5 mg/dl, and these measurements were repeated daily during phosphate repletion until serum phosphate levels reached the normal range. a ... | 2012 | 3364446 |
| autosomal recessive inheritance of nager acrofacial dysostosis. | nager acrofacial dysostosis is a variant of mandibulofacial dysostosis with severe micrognathia, malar hypoplasia, and radial limb defects. most cases are sporadic, but autosomal recessive inheritance has been suggested. a family is reported in which two sibs are affected by this syndrome, presenting further evidence for autosomal recessive inheritance. the recognition of this syndrome as a distinct entity has important implications. after the birth of a child with orofacial malformations sugges ... | 2005 | 3367347 |
| anion transport during maturation of erythroblastic cells. | bromide uptake was measured in single maturing erythroblastic cells of rabbits by means of x-ray microanalysis. increase in bromide uptake as the cells matured was observed. the order of cells from low to high bromide uptake was: early erythroblast less than late erythroblast less than marrow red cells less than peripheral red blood cells. the transition from low to high bromide uptake is correlated to the accumulation of iron which begins in the late erythroblast. a decrease in rubidium uptake ... | 1988 | 3367365 |
