Comparison of transplantation modality of human mesenchymal stem cells expressing neurogenin1 in rat middle cerebral artery occlusion model: intra-arterial vs. intra-cerebral
… of disease progression. In our previous study, intra-cerebral transplantation of neurogenin1-expressing MSCs (MSCs/Ngn1) in the animal stroke model dramatically improved neurologic deficits compared with the parental MSCs. However, intra-cerebral transplantation is an invasive method and …

The efficacy of intra-arterial lignocaine as an adjuvant analgesic in the management of post-procedural pain following uterineartery embolization for symptomatic uterine fibroids – a comparative study of outcomes
… warranted. In particular, the benefit of intra-arterial lignocaine as an adjunctive analgesic following UAE remains uncertain. Method: A single institution retrospective comparative study was undertaken through review of folders of patients who were treated for symptomatic uterine fibroids …

Absorption, Distribution and Excretion of Oxytetracycline and Tetracycline in Female Beagles
… were studied in female beagles following intra-arterial and oral drug administration. Concentrations of drug in body fluids and selected tissues were determined by high performance liquid chromatography utilizing an internal standard. The average biologic half-life of oxytetracycline was …

Developing an adjunct therapy to mechanical thrombectomy in a murine model of stroke ischaemia reperfusion injury
… drug administration during reperfusion via an intra-arterial polyimide-based microcatheter. I show that this novel model with the intra-arterial catheter is robust and comparable to the traditional model. Using this model, I characterised the uptake and efficacy of intravenous tail-vein …

Effect of penicillin G on the reproduction of Salmonella cholerasuis in the presence and absence of porcine alveolar macrophages in a pharmacodynamic model
… alveolar macrophage (PAM). The results of an intra-arterial penicillin G dosing trial completed in swine indicated that the disappearance of penicillin from plasma could be accurately described by an open two-compartment model. A dynamic in vitro capillary model was modified to accurately …

Linear regression model for continuous non-invasive blood pressure estimation for an ICU setting
… important for clinicians. The gold standard intra-arterial method is complicated and contraindicated. Current pulse transit time (PTT)-based BP estimation methods are validated on healthy subjects using intermittent cuff-based BP measurements. Research indicates significant differences in …

An analysis of defibrillation and cardiac resynchronization therapy strategies in patients with failing systemic right ventricles
… to CRT using noncontact mapping (NCM) and acute intra-arterial blood pressure response to guide endocardialsRV lead placement in a single patient. The ejection fraction increased from 23 -33% within 1week post procedure and clinical improvement was sustained after 6-months follow-up. Application …

Development of Multifunctional Drug Delivery Systems for Locoregional Therapy
… through topical instillation, inhalation, intra-lesional or intra-arterial injection. Decades of experience in locoregional treatment have delivered meaningful benefits to patients with localized diseases (e.g., osteoarthritis, ocular disorders and liver cancers). However, improvements are …

Single nephron structure and function, and renal effects of catecholamines in the dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula
… evidence of smooth muscle sphincters, intra-arterial cushions and glomerular bypass shunts in renal vasculature was found. The function of these structures is discussed in relation to patterns of renal blood flow, blood pressure and glomerular perfusion. 6. Plasma levels of the …

The Effect of Electroshock on the Passage of Bacteria From a Contaminated Transducer Past a Protective Membrane into a Disposable Chamber Dome
<p>Infection related to use of Intra-arterial Hemodynamic Monitoring Devices is a serious complication. In an attempt to decrease the risk of infection presterilized chamber domes were developed to isolate the patient vascular system from the pressure transducer. Users were informed by …
