Morphine responders with unexplained pain after cholecystectomy may have sympathetic overactivityClinical Autonomic Research - Tập 1 - Trang 59-62 - 1991
Ian C. Roberts-Thomson, Julie R. Jonsson, Peter R. Pannall, Derek B. Frewin
In patients with unexplained pain after cholecystectomy, morphine often induces
pain and may increase plasma aspartate aminotransferase activity because of
exaggerated or prolonged rises in pressure within the biliary system. Previous
studies have demonstrated that patients showing increases in aspartate
aminotransferase have increases in plasma concentrations of noradrenaline and
dopamine prior t... hiện toàn bộ
Efficacy of high sodium intake in a boy with instantaneous orthostatic hypotensionClinical Autonomic Research - Tập 12 - Trang 47-50 - 2002
Mototada Shichiri, Hidetaka Tanaka, Ryuzo Takaya, Hiroshi Tamai
We report the case of a 14-year-old boy with instantaneous orthostatic
hypotension (INOH) with symptoms of orthostatic intolerance. We investigated the
effect of high sodium intake on hemodynamics and circulatory responses to
orthostatic stress using Portapres. Moreover, a multifrequency bioelectrical
impedance method was used to confirm increased plasma volume. Although we began
treatment with an... hiện toàn bộ
Serum prolactin levels in Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophyClinical Autonomic Research - Tập 12 - Trang 393-398 - 2002
Andrea Sylvia Winkler, Sabine Landau, K Ray Chaudhuri
The hypothalamic-pituitary axis (HPA) may be involved early in multiple system
atrophy (MSA), whereas in idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) its impairment
seems to be correlated with motor disability. The release of prolactin (PRL) is
mediated through the HPA and an increase in PRL levels is documented during
stress. In this study, we investigated basal and erect PRL levels to assess
whether bas... hiện toàn bộ
