During these events, the oxygen content of fetal blood may decrease (hypoxemia), and the carbon dioxide or carbonic acid content of the fetal blood may increase (hypercapnia). Despite the adaptive ...

Methods to characterize vasoreactivity to oxygen changes, particularly hypoxia, would provide important complementary information to established hypercapnia techniques. However, existing methods to ...

Attorneys for Jessie Hoffman Jr. argued against the capital punishment method of nitrogen hypoxia in a Baton Rouge federal court on Friday. The hearing occurred a week after Hoffman filed a lawsuit ...

To investigate the clinical relevance of plasma concentrations of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) in patients with severe cerebrovascular diseases, serial analyses were performed during the first 10 ...

Their development is favored by the presence of infection, with its accompanying bronchospasm, hypoxia and hypercapnia, and by the use of digitalis. Digitalis, however, was an important factor in ...

Mechanistically, hypoxia promoted DBC1 to interact with SIAH2 but not OTUD5, resulting in the ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of DBC1 through the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway. SIAH2 knockout ...

We postulated that the C1 cells and the pFRG may constitute functionally distinct but interacting populations for controlling expiratory activity during hypoxia. We found in rats that: a) C1 neurons ...

2009; Zhu et al., 2011) and thus contribute to the decreased CBF responses to neuronal stimulation and hypercapnia that occur with aging. CBF is elevated in response to increased neural activity (i.e.
