Pseudopotentials for clusters
The relativistic optimized potential method is used to generate normconserving pseudopotentials. First results for sodium indicate that the resulting pseudopotentials are superior to those based on the local d...

Clinical Symptoms and Therapy of Lung Separation
Lung separation is an anomaly of the lung characterized by three anatomical entities: abnormal arterial blood supply, bronchial anomaly and parenchymatous dysgenesis. Aetiologically, an embryonic maldevelopmen...

Blood Volume Distribution Under the Influence of Dihydroergotamine (Dihydergot) and Etilefrine Hydrochloride (Effortil) During Epidural Anesthesia
Sympathetic block associated with major conduction anesthesia, like peridural anesthesia (PDA), leads to blood pooling in the denervated area and thus can jeopardize cardiac filling [4]. For this reason, proph...

In vivo determination of the kinetic parameters of glucose transport in the human brain using 11C-methyl-d-glucose (CMG) and dynamic positron emission tomography (dPET)
A method was developed to measure simultaneously (1) the rate constants for glucose influex and glucose efflux, and (2) the Michaelis-Menten constant (K M ) and maximal velocity...

Dihydroergotamine decreases the blood content in the skeletal musculature but etilefrine hydrochloride in the splanchnic region in man
Dihydroergotamine (DHE, Dihydergot®) constricts the capacitance vessels of the striated musculature about twice as strong as etilefrine hydrochloride (E, Effortil®) for the same increment in central venous pressu...

Regional Perfusion and Glucose Uptake Determination with 11C-Methyl-Glucose and Dynamic Positron Emission Tomography
Recent studies have emphasized that quantitative assessment of different brain disorders may require the knowledge of at least two parameters. One is local perfusion, and the second should relate to tissue met...

3-(11C)-Methyl-D-Glucose, an Agent for the Assessment of Regional Glucose Transport Across the Blood-Brain Barrier
The normal brain meets its energy needs solely by oxidative metabolism of D-glucose. Thus, labelled derivatives of D-glucose may be expected to be useful tracers for glucose utilization. Since D-glucose cannot...

Myocardial Scintigraphy with Free Fatty Acids and Glucose
For objective evaluation of myocardial ischemia and for characterization of cryptogenic cardiomyopathy, quantitative information about myocardial metabolism is necessary [24, 31]. For external monitoring of my...
