Acute Renal Failure: A Rare Presentation of Hypothyroidism
(2009)Thyroid hormones affect the function of almost every body organ, and thyroid dysfunction produces a wide range of metabolic disturbances. Severe hypothyroidism is associated with significant effects on the kidney. The ... -
Aeromonas hydrophila as a causative organism in peritoneal dialysis-related peritonitis: case report and review of the literature
(2011)Most episodes of peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related peritonitis could be attributed to a single organism, but in almost 10% of peritonitis episodes multiple organisms are identified. Polymicrobial peritonitis is often related ... -
Amiloride-sensitive sodium channels on the parietal human peritoneum: Evidence by ussing-type chamber experiments
(2007)The mesothelium is part of the peritoneal water and ion transport barrier essential for peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment and has a central role in the pathogenesis of peritoneal fibrosis and ultrafiltration failure ... -
Comparison of the electrophysiological properties of the sheep isolated costal and diaphragmatic parietal pleura
(2007)1. Pleural permeability may contribute to pleural fluid turnover. The transmesothelial resistance (R-TM), is an established surrogate of mesothelial permeability. The aim of the present study was to compare the ... -
The contribution of ascorbic acid and dehydroascorbic acid to the protective role of pleura during inflammatory reactions
(2007)It is well-known that parapneumonic effusions lead to the formation of inflammatory exudates which contain an increasing amount of inflammatory cells, especially polymorphonuclear. At these pathological conditions characterized ... -
Development of an egg-white bioassay for monitoring biotin levels in urine and serum
(2007)This article reports on the development of a simple and cost-effective bioassay for the detection of biotin in urine and serum, based on the very selective binding of avidin and biotin. Avidin was allowed to react without ... -
Dexamethasone acutely accelerates pleural fluid absorption in mice hydrothoraces
(2010)This study assessed the effect of corticosteroid treatment in the clearance of hydrothoraces in mice. Twentyfour C57BL/6 mice were divided into four groups and were injected intrapleurally with 500 mu L sterilized PBS-BSA ... -
Dexamethasone decreases the transmesothelial electrical resistance of the parietal and visceral pleura
(2009)The effect of dexamethasone on the transmesothelial electrical resistance (R (TM)) of sheep pleura was investigated by Ussing chamber experiments. Our results show that dexamethasone decreases the R (TM) of sheep pleurae, ... -
Effect of adrenaline on the electrophysiologic profile of isolated visceral sheep peritoneum
(2004)The peritoneal mesothelium is a barrier to ion transport in peritoneal dialysis. In the present study, we investigated, by means of Ussing chamber experiments, the effect of adrenaline on the electrical transepithelial ... -
Effect of adrenaline on transmesothelial resistance of isolated sheep pleura
(2006)The effect of adrenaline on the transmesothelial resistance (R-TM) of sheep's visceral and parietal pleura was studied using the Ussing chamber technique. Basal transmesothelial resistance of visceral pleura was found to ... -
Effect of cimetidine on the electrophysiologic profile of isolated visceral sheep peritoneum
(2009)The peritoneal mesothelium is a barrier to ion transport in peritoneal dialysis. Cimetidine is an H2 receptor antagonist and a potent inhibitor of Na+/H+ antiporter, which is found in the plasma membranes of various cell ... -
Effect of endothelin-1 on the transmesothelial resistance of isolated visceral sheep peritoneum
(2007)The mesothelium is part of the peritoneal barrier that manages the water and ion transport essential for peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment. In addition, it has a central role in the pathogenesis of peritoneal fibrosis and ... -
Effect of long-term dietary supplementation with clinoptilolite on performance and selected serum biochemical values in dairy goats
(2009)Objective-To determine the effect of dietary supplementation with clinoptilolite on health and production as well as serum concentrations of fat-soluble vitamins, macroelements and trace elements, and activities of hepatic ...
