BACKGROUND: Gastric tube formation is a surgical technique to reestablish the continuity
of the gastrointestinal tract after esophagectomy. Our aims were to study the microcirculatory …

Background. We hypothesized that endothelin-A (ET-A) receptor activation plays a central
role in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion-induced hemodynamic changes and may trigger the …

Although the small bowel constitutes about 75% of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, primary
tumours in it are relatively rare, making up only a small percentage of all GI neoplasms. Their …

mdash;: In our study the pathomechanism of sepsis-induced early myocardial depression was
investigated. We determined the effects of the inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibitor and …

Background. The aims of this study were to characterize the structural and microcirculatory
changes in single intestinal villi during ischemia and reperfusion and determine the site of …

The effects of glucocorticoids on acute pancreatitis (AP) have remained contradictory. The
aim of this study was to investigate the time courses of the effects of the exogenous …

Background/Aims: Ischemia-reperfusion injury contributes to the high complication rate of
small bowel transplantation (SBTX). Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) protects against …

Background Ischemia/reperfusion-induced polymorphonuclear neutrophil leukocyte (PMN)
adhesion and extravasation are pivotal for the development of postinjury multiple organ …

Objectives: To examine the microcirculatory changes in the rat tibial periosteum after hindlimb
ischemia and reperfusion and to evaluate the effects of endothelin‐A (ET‐A) receptor …

Prognostic values of lung cancers as second primary malignant tumors (LC-as-SPTs) developed
after a different type of first primary malignant tumor were analyzed. Forty-three patients …
