Words similar to hemodynamics
Example sentences for: hemodynamics
How can you use “hemodynamics” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Transcribed to human hemodynamics, systemic vascular resistance (SVR) can be measured from the differential pressure between the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and the central venous pressure (CVP) divided by the flow, ie cardiac output (CO).
(1) Alterations in hemodynamics : documentation of pulmonary hypertension, increased pulmonary vascular resistance, or left ventricular dysfunction by pressure and cardiac output measurements.
These authors also suggested that extreme changes in lateral posture were associated with adverse effects on hemodynamics in comparison with continuous rotation.
A randomized, double-blind study to compare nifedipine-GITS and verapamil-SR on hemodynamics, left ventricular mass, and coronary vasodilatory in patients with advanced hypertension [ 4 ] . Fifty-four patients were randomized after the placebo run-in phase.
Prostaglandin E 2 is a major cyclooxygenase metabolite of arachidonic acid which exerts diverse effects on vascular smooth muscle tone and epithelial solute transport via G-protein coupled receptors [ 1 2 ] . At least four distinct G-protein coupled PGE 2 receptors have been cloned: the EP 1 , EP 2 , EP 3 , and EP 4 [ 1 ] . Pharmacological studies suggest PGE 2 relaxes vascular smooth muscle through two of these receptors, the EP 2 and EP 4 receptors, which couple to cyclic-AMP generation [ 3 ] . In contrast, PGE 2 constricts other vascular smooth muscle through EP 3 receptors which inhibit cAMP generation via G i or EP 1 receptors which increase Ca 2+mobilization [ 3 ] . Although both EP 2 and EP 4 receptors relax smooth muscle, EP 2 receptors are uniquely sensitive to the agonists butaprost and AH13205 [ 3 4 ] . Previous studies have shown that PGE 2 increases the cAMP concentration in many tissues including kidney, intestine and uterus, but the relative contribution of EP 2 versus EP 4 receptors to these effects is incompletely defined [ 5 6 ] . Recent studies in mice with targeted disruption of these receptors have suggested an important role for EP2 receptor in regulating systemic hemodynamics.
