Glyphosate-based herbicides, such as Touchdown (TD) and Roundup, are among the most heavily-used herbicides in the world. While the active ingredient is generally considered non-toxic, the toxicity resulting from exposure to commercially-sold…

Diabetes, a syndrome characterized by high plasma glucose and low plasma insulin concentrations, is associated with somatic and autonomic neuropadiabetes as well as cardiac and vascular disorders. These consequences of diabetes significantly affect…

Objectives: To test whether dopamine infusion improves oxygen delivery (D over dot O-2) and oxygen uptake (V over dot O-2) in hyperdynamic septic shock patients stabilized by adequate volume and dobutamine alone, or by the combination of dobutamine…

Mixed background SHP(-/-) mice are resistant to diet-induced obesity due to increased energy expenditure caused by enhanced PGC-1 alpha expression in brown adipocytes. However, congenic SHP(-/-) mice on the C57BL/6 background showed normal expression…

Objective: To assess the effects of epinephrine on splanchnic perfusion and splanchnic oxygen uptake in patients with septic shock. Design: Prospective, controlled trial. Setting: University hospital intensive care unit (ICU). Patients: Eight…

Hypertonic saline with or without colloidal solution has been successfully used for treating hemorrhagic shock in animal experiments and clinical studies. Due to its various effects at systemic, organ, and microcirculatory levels, the substance…

Objectives: Deactivation of endothelium-derived relaxing factor due to an increased oxygen radical load during sepsis may contribute to an impairment in microcirculatory blood flow. We investigated whether treatment with the sulfhydryl donor and…

We evaluated the ability of a group of male runners (n = 4) to do maximal and submaximal exercise before and after they ran a competitive marathon (42.2 km) race. VO2max was determined 3 to 6 times in each runner, on alternate days, 1-4 weeks prior…

Objective: To assess global and splanchnic blood flow and oxygen transport in patients with sepsis with and without norepinephrine treatment. Design: Prospective, clinical study. Setting: University hospital intensive care unit. Patients: A…

Objective. To assess the effects of low-dose dopamine on splanchnic blood flow and splanchnic oxygen uptake in patients with septic shock. Design. Prospective, controlled trial. Setting. University hospital intensive care unit. Patients. 11 patients…

In 1973, the Institute of Environmental Stress of the University of California-Santa Barbara, under the direction of Steven M. Horvath, began a series of field and laboratory studies of marathon runners during competition. As one of Horvath's…
