[left ventricular wall thickness in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: comparisons of measurements by magnetic resonance imaging, cineangiography, and echocardiography].	to evaluate the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (mri) in measuring regional wall thickness of the left ventricle, 11 patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (hcm) were imaged. the measurements were compared with those obtained by two-dimensional echocardiography (2d-echo) and cineangiography. regional wall thickness was ascertained at six locations including the base, middle, and apex of the interventricular septum (ivs) and left ventricular posterior wall (lvpw) from the two selected ...	2012	3267712

[incidence of ischemic heart disease in relation to major risk factors among moscow male residents aged 20-29 years].	a representative random sample of 3,308 male residents aged 20-59 years from a moscow district was examined. only 74% of them participated in the study. routine epidemiological methods were used to identify various forms of coronary heart disease (chd). the prevalence of chd was 9.7% in the population with the incidence of definite chd of 5% and possible chd of 4.6%. the prevalence of chd was significantly associated with age, arterial hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hy ...	2012	3265747
anterior and posterior axial lens displacement and human aqueous outflow facility.	we studied the effect of anterior and posterior axial crystalline lens displacement (and thereby ciliary tone) on the aqueous humor outflow facility in enucleated human eyes. after attaching a reversible footplate plunger to the anterior lens capsule with cyanoacrylate, the lens was placed in one of three positions: "neutral baseline," posterior displacement (2.5 mm), or anterior displacement (2.0 mm). in seven pairs of eyes, the mean "neutral baseline" was not statistically different from the c ...	1988	3262095

a role for the extracellular matrix in retinal neurogenesis in vitro.	the germinal neuroepithelial cells that give rise to the majority of neurons in the vertebrate central nervous system are in contact with the basement membrane that surrounds the neural tube from the very earliest stages. the effect of removing this basement membrane on the organization and proliferative potential of these cells was examined in a new slice culture preparation of developing rana tadpole retina. the results indicate that the germinal neuroepithelium, like other epithelial tissues, ...	2012	3262071

the potency of immunoglobulin g fragments for inhibition of interference caused by anti-immunoglobulin antibodies in a monoclonal immunoradiometric assay for thyrotropin.	heterophile antibodies in patients' serum may produce false increases in apparent analyte concentrations in "sandwich"-type immunoassays. using three patients with endogenous anti-mouse igg antibodies and a two-site mouse monoclonal assay for thyrotropin, we studied the ability of igg fragments to block this positive interference. mouse whole igg and igg fc fragment blocked the interference virtually completely; igg f(ab')2 and fab fragments did not. rat and horse immunoglobulin fragments gave v ...	1988	3260545
efficacy of neuromuscular stimulation of the quadriceps femoris during continuous passive motion following total knee arthroplasty.	the effect of neuromuscular stimulation of the quadriceps femoris combined with continuous passive motion (cpm) on the active extension range of motion and force of patients with total knee arthroplasty was investigated. the experimental group received three one-hour periods of electric stimulation per day in the extension cycle of the continuous passive motion. the control group received continuous passive motion without quadriceps electric stimulation. both groups engaged in physical therapy c ...	2008	3259866
[ocular herpes zoster with contralateral hemiplegia].	a total of 375 patients with neurologic syndromes of herpes zoster were studied. ten of them presented, along with the involvement of the first branch of the trigeminal nerve and other cranial nerves, contralateral pyramidal symptomatology. apart from the typical syndrome of herpes zoster ophthalmicus with contralateral hemiplegia the authors distinguished clinical variants in which contralateral pyramidal symptomatology was associated with acute meningoencephalitis.	2008	3259770
c1q component of complement binds to fibrinogen and fibrin.	the interaction of complement component c1q with fibrinogen and fibrin was studied by using a solid-phase direct binding assay. scatchard analysis of radioiodinated fibrinogen binding to c1q indicated at least two high-affinity binding constants (kd) calculated as 8.5 and 120 nm. in contrast, binding of radioiodinated fibrin to c1q showed only a single class of binding sites with a calculated kd of 600 nm. fibrinogen-c1q binding was shown to decrease as a function of increasing salt concentratio ...	2011	3258162

ferriprotoporphyrin ix mediated oxygen activation/insertion reactions: the anerobic reduction of the aniline-fe3+-microperoxidase-8 complex by nadh.	a spectrophotometric study of the reduction of the fe3+ microperoxidase-8-aniline (fe3+-mp-8-an) complex has been carried out. addition of nadh to a solution of fe3+-mp-8-an under strictly anerobic conditions results in the formation of a species with lambda max = 414 nm (fe3+-mp-8-an lambda max 407 nm). the kinetics of formation of this species show an induction period (tau) which follows saturation kinetics with respect to [aniline] with km(app) = 2.2 x 10(-3) mol dm-3, i.e., close to that obt ...	2011	3236002

combined effects of deafferentation and de-efferentation on isthmo-optic neurons during the period of their naturally occurring cell death.	we have studied the effects on the chick embryo's isthmo-optic nucleus of de-efferentation alone or in combination with deafferentation. de-efferentation was achieved by pharmacological destruction of the axonal target cells in the retina at e13, or by colchicine-blockade of axoplasmic transport in the intraocular parts of the isthmo-optic axons at e13; deafferentation was by a tectal lesion at e11 or e12. de-efferentation alone causes all the isthmo-optic neurons to die, and mostly by the "endo ...	2011	3232850

in vitro effect of xipamide on sodium-potassium transport systems in human erythrocytes.	the in vitro effects of xipamide in a concentration range of 10(-8) to 10(-2) m were investigated on various na+ and k+ transport systems in human red blood cells. xipamide inhibited the anion carrier or dids-sensitive lico3- -influx starting from a concentration of 10(-5) m. however, a decrease in the na+, k+-pump and the na+, k+-cotransport activity and a rise in the passive permeability of the cell membrane was only observed starting from a concentration of 10(-4) m xipamide.	1988	3226221

in vivo electrochemical detection of 5-hydroxyindole within the trigeminal nucleus caudalis of freely moving rats: the effect of morphine.	the trigeminal nucleus caudalis is considered the equivalent of the orofacial nociceptive system of the dorsal horn of the spinal cord. at the level of this trigeminal area (i.e. medullary dorsal horn) the transmission of noxious inputs is strongly modulated by a descending, serotonergic system mainly originating from the nucleus raphe magnus (nrm). the present study in freely moving animals reports the effect of morphine on the 5-hydroxyindole oxidation current recorded in the medullary dorsal ...	1988	3196919
