Coronary Arteriographic Findings in Younger Survivors of Acute Myocardial Infarction Including Those with Normal Coronary Arteries
Acute myocardial infarction (MI) is often the first indication of the presence of coronary atherosclerosis. In the Framingham study [5], it was the initial manifestation in 42% of men and 21% of women, and 16%...

Arginine vasopressin response to anaesthesia produced by halothane, enflurane and isoflurane
Some of the effects of inhalational anaesthetics may be mediated by (3-endorphins acting on opioid receptors. Stimulation of such receptors has been shown both to promote and to inhibit the release of arginine...

Localization of exercise-induced myocardial ischemia with single view and biplanar radionuclide ventriculography: validation in single vessel coronary disease
The ability of single view and biplanar radionuclide ventriculography (RVG) to determine the location of myocardial ischemia during maximal graded supine bicycle exercise was assessed in 50 patients with chest...

Atropine-induced heart rate changes: a comparison between midazolam-fentanyl-propofol-N2O and midazolam-fentanyl-thiopentone-enflurane-N2O anaesthesia
Atropine-induced heart rate (HR) changes were studied in 19 patients (ASA physical status I) during anaesthesia maintained predominantly with propofol-N2O or thiopentone-enflurane-N2O. Ten patients (Group A) rece...

Early prognosis after thrombolysis: value of exercise radionuclide ventriculography performed on anti-ischaemic medication
We examined the prognostic value of exercise radionuclide ventriculography (RNV) performed on anti-ischaemic medication following thrombolysis. Within 3 months of thrombolysis for first myocardial infarction, ...
