Effects of ovokinin on isolated aortas of guinea pigs, normotensive and spontaneously hypertensive rats
… agents. Isolated aortic rings from guinea pigs, normotensive rats, and spontaneously hypertensive rats were exposed to phenylephrine, prostaglandin F2a, potassium chloride, or bradykinin. Bradykinin contracted guinea pig and spontaneously hypertensive rat aortas, however, it had no effect on …

Enalaprilat Improves Systemic and Mesenteric Blood Flow During Normotensive Resuscitation from Hemorrhagic Shock in Dogs
Resuscitative interventions that improve systemic and mesenteric perfusion without causing instability in systemic arterial pressures may be helpful for improving trauma patient outcomes. Blocking angiotensin II formation with enalaprilat may be such an intervention. In this study involving …

Age differences on the pattern of blood pressure response to isometric exercise in normotensive males.
… ten younger males (mean age 26.6 +/- 1.9 yrs) normotensive at rest and dynamic exercise participated in this study. Following the determination of their maximum voluntary contraction (MVC), subjects performed handgrip contractions (dominant) at 20%, 40%, and 60% MVC (for 30 seconds), and at MVC …

A comparison of calcium levels in pre-eclamptic and normotensive pregnancies in a low dietary calcium setting
Pre-eclampsia is a leading cause of maternal mortality and morbidity in South Africa. At present this disease cannot be prevented and many interventions to reduce the incidence of pre-eclampsia have been investigated. Calcium supplementation of pregnant women at high risk of developing …

Expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-A and its Receptors in Uteroplacental Tissues of the Normotensive and Hypertensive Pregnant Rat
… and VEGFR-2 in uteroplacental tissues of the normotensive (WKY) and the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) at 7, 11 and 19 days of gestation. Spontaneously hypertensive rats have been previously established as an animal model for pre-eclampsia. The uterus containing the placenta and fetus …

Normal and abnormal findings from exercise stress ECG vs. post-exercise echocardiography studies in a series of hypertensive and normotensive individuals
… (ECHO) studies in a series of hypertensive and normotensive individuals who underwent diagnostic testing. Data for the ECG and ECHO variables were obtained simultaneously in association with treadmill exercise studies. Eighty consecutive cases were included in this retrospective study. Records …

Differential expression of C/T antigens and 5-HT receptors in normotensive and pre-eclamptic placentae, and their role in trophoblast invasion
Cancer/testis (C/T) antigens are a unique class of tumour associated proteins that are prominently expressed in cancer cells of different histological origin. Placenta is one of the three non-cancerous tissues known to express these antigens. During the first trimester (FT) of pregnancy, placental …

Normal and Abnormal Findings from Exercise Stress ECG, Post-Exercise Echocardiography and Angiography Studies in a Series of Hypertensive and Normotensive Individuals
… studies in a series of hypertensive and normotensive individuals who underwent diagnostic testing. Data for the ECG and ECHO were obtained simultaneously and the angiography was performed either before or following the exercise stress test. Thirty-seven cases were included in this …
