BACKGROUND
Use of antihypertensive medications is common after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Medications that block adrenergic activation (e.g., beta-blockers and the alpha(2)-agonist, clonidine) may reduce the inflammatory response and therefore have secondary benefit after ICH.
METHODS
The
The authors studied the mechanisms of disorders of energy provision of myocardial contractility in rabbits in hemorrhagic shock and appraised the efficacy of a new Soviet-produced agent dalargin possessing an antiadrenergic property. It is shown that dalargin exerts a significant effect on the
Resection of metastatic pheochromocytomas may be complicated by transient postoperative neurological deficits due to hypotension. The authors report the first case of en bloc excision of a spinal pheochromocytoma with associated long-term hypertensive management off all medication. Interestingly,
After a brief outline of the principles involved in the production of thrombohemorrhagic phenomena (THP) with special organotropic localizations, an experimental technique is described which permits the production of acrocyanosis and thrombohemorrhagic lesions largely limited to the posterior part
We analyzed a local database including 468 consecutive patients who underwent elective aortic abdominal surgery over an 8-yr period in a single institution. A new cardioprotective perioperative protocol was introduced in January 1997, and we questioned whether perioperative cardiac outcome could be
Acute stroke may cause hypertension and actually available devices for non-invasive blood pressure monitoring make it possible to study short-term variability of pressure in this condition, in order to settle a more rational diagnostic and therapeutic approach. In our experience blood pressure
To examine the role of adrenergic influences on genesis of ischemic and reperfusion arrhythmias, the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) was cannulated and perfused by a shunt from the left carotid artery in 38 open-chest pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs. Ischemia was produced by shunt
The longitudinal analysis of the adult population of Framingham, Massachusetts has clarified the pivotal role of hypertension in the epidemiology of stroke. Stroke incidence increases in men and women as arterial blood pressure, either systolic or diastolic, increases. Isolated systolic hypertension
Cardiac arrhythmias and electrocardiographic abnormalities are frequently observed after acute cerebrovascular events. The precise mechanism that leads to the development of these arrhythmias is still uncertain, though increasing evidence suggests that it is mainly due to autonomic nervous system
