We examined whether digitalis augments cardiopulmonary baroreflex control of forearm vascular resistance in normal young men. Cardiopulmonary baroreceptor input was reduced with lower body negative pressure (LBNP) at 10 and 20 mmHg which decreased central venous pressure (CVP) but did not alter
We sought to determine whether digitalis augments cardiopulmonary baroreflex control of forearm vascular resistance in normal young men. Cardiopulmonary baroreceptor input was reduced with lower body negative pressure (LBNP) at 10 and 20 mm Hg, which decreased central venous pressure but did not
The action on left ventricular function of Astragalus Membranaceus (AM), a Qi-tonic, in 20 patients with angina pectoris was studied by means of Doppler Echocardiogram (DEC). It showed that cardiac output increased from 5.09 +/- 0.21 to 5.95 +/- 0.18 L/min 2 weeks after AM was administered (P <
The original treatment indicated for those suffering from neurotic anxiety was to employ psychotherapy to facilitate changes in behavior and coping with stressful events. A spectrum of somatic treatments "from cathartics and emetics to opium and "strengthening tonics", from atropine and digitalis to
The earliest treatments of anxiety included cathartics and emetics, which were used to remove the excess of black bile (hence our word melancholia) thought to be responsible for the patient's demeanor. By the 1700s, physicians were prescribing drugs that are more selective for the CNS, chiefly opium
Coronary arterial tissues obtained from mammalian hearts are known to develop spontaneous phasic contractions. The aim of the present study was to investigate the vasodilatory effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on the rhythmic contractions of isolated human coronary arterial (HCA) preparations
The physiologic importance of parasympathetic influence on the sinoatrial and atrioventricular nodes is well established, but the importance of parasympathetic modulation of ventricular function remains controversial. Recognized effects of muscarinic cholinergic stimulation on ventricular
