OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the six-month results of patients treated with intravitreal prednisolone sodium succinate injections for persistent diabetic macular edema.
METHODS
Retrospective, noncontrolled, clinical case series.
METHODS
Nineteen eyes had intravitreal injections with prednisolone sodium
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study is to provide evidence that free radical damage is a component of retinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, and to determine whether alpha-tocopherol, gamma-tocopherol and d-alpha-tocopherol polyethylene glycol 1000 succinate (TPGS) can protect the retina from
The effects of pre- and postoperative administration of methylprednisolone (5, 10, 15 mg/kg/day) was studied on 50 cases of major neurosurgical operation. The serum level of beta-glucuronidase was also analyzed in 20 cases so as to determine whether it could be useful as an indicator of post
Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α is a transcription factor that is critical for tissue adaption to hypoxia and inflammation. Previous studies had indicated that normoxic activation of HIF-1α in cancer involves inhibition or mutation of the metabolic enzyme succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). We have
BACKGROUND
Many hypertensive patients require combination therapy to achieve target blood pressure (BP). beta-Blockers and dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers are effective as monotherapy in hypertensive patients and have complementary mechanisms for lowering BP.
METHODS
This multicenter,
The effect of therapy with methylprednisolone sodium succinate (5.33 mg/kg/day) and dexamethasone sodium phosphate (1 mg/kg/day) on grey matter of rabbits rendered edematous by a metabolic blocker, 6-aminonicotinamide, is presented. Methylprednisolone was observed to significantly reduce the water
To study the effects of glucocorticoids and chemotherapeutic agents on the pathophysiology of the tumor-induced brain edema, the site of Evans blue-albumin extravasation, the distribution of extravasated serum albumin, and the extent of local astrocytic reaction were examined in a rat model of
We evaluated the effects of methylprednisolone sodium succinate (MPSS) on 60 minutes of myocardial ischemia during profound (5 degrees C) topical cardiac hypothermia (ice chips) in a canine right heart bypass preparation. The ventricular function curve shifted to the right and downward, but not
Ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury is, in part, related to the burst of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated after reperfusion. Vitamin E has been shown to exert its biological effects as an antioxidant, inhibiting the ROS. In this report, the effect of Vitamin E succinate (VES) on
In nonanesthetized young pigs, the influence of prednisolone sodium succinate therapy on a 65% lethal dose of Escherichia coli endotoxin was studied by evaluating clinical signs, several hemodynamic variables, survival rate, and changes seen at necropsy. Endotoxin infusion induced reproducible
The treatment for pulmonary edema with the adult respiratory distress syndrome is aimed at the early supportive management of hypovolemic shock. The addition of massive corticosteroid dosage, Methylprednisolone Succinate, of 30 mg/kg body wt/dose ever six hours for a 24-48 hour period has been shown
We encountered a patient with diabetes mellitus due to the 3243 mitochondrial tRNA mutation(DM-Mt3243), who developed insulin edema and hepatic dysfunction after starting insulin. Such a rare phenomenon was unlikely to be a fortuitous coincidence in mitochondrial diabetes, as none in 197 non-mutant
This work describes the control exerted by dicarboxylate carrier and succinate dehydrogenase activities on the oxidative phosphorylations in rabbit brain mitochondria as an edema develops. Vasogenic edema leads to an uncompetitive inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase activity and to a large
