    Successful Administration of the NO Synthase Inhibitor 546C88 as a Delayed Continuous Infusion in a Baboon Model of Septic Shock

    Nitric oxide (NO) as both a vasodilator and under certain circumstances a cyto-toxic molecule is suggested as one of the critical mediators of severe sepsis and septic shock. Whether NO is really a central mol...

    The Role of TNF in Gram-Negative Sepsis in Baboon

    During sepsis TNF message is expressed and the protein is released both locally and into plasma. Teleologically such cytokine response must be beneficial to the host. However, from a certain threshold level of...

    Normal Surface Brightness Dwarf Galaxies in the Fornax Cluster

    There are strong selection effects in favour of selecting galaxies of certain surface brightnesses (Disney & Phillipps 1983; Davies 1990), and against finding galaxies of other surface brightnesses. Both low a...
