The goals of this study were: [1] to determine the effects of increased contractility on IMP and its components; and [2] to determine whether digoxin, a weak inotrope without an adverse survival benefit, affects IMP and its components. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
No significant changes in ATP and IMP muscle concentrations were observed during exercise despite the fact that at the end of the exercise the demand for ATP was at its highest. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
The finding of a lack of IMP accumulation or ATP decrease during exercise in the present study is consistent with other studies showing that no changes in muscle IMP, ATP or NH3 occur until PCr levels have significantly decreased to values below ? | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Total changes in IMP and EMG amplitude during 1 min isometric contraction were linearly interrelated (r = 0.747, p < 0.0001). | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Limited work has been performed assessing the effect of contractility on IMP and its components with LV dysfunction without the obfuscating effects of intraventricular conduction delay or ischemic provocation [6,7]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Although clinical studies [6,7] have been performed assessing the effect of dobutamine stress on IMP with LV dysfunction, the focus has been on ischemia or contractile reserve. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Finally, it is not clear that dobutamine or digoxin might have similar effects on IMP and its components with more severe LV dysfunction. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
As the LV ejection fraction was <40% (moderate LV dysfunction) in several animals, and the responses of IMP and ICT were uniform in most dogs, it might be reasonable to expect that inotropic stimulation with more severe LV dysfunction might produce similar responses in IMP and ICT. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
As the index of myocardial performance has been shown to be preload and afterload dependent, the effect of altering contractility on IMP and its components with left ventricular dysfunction has been incompletely delineated.
| |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
As the LV ejection fraction was <40% (moderate LV dysfunction) in several animals, and the responses of IMP and ICT were uniform in most dogs, it might be reasonable to expect that inotropic stimulation with more severe LV dysfunction might produce similar responses in IMP and ICT. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Its high brain affinity has been used to advantage for cerebral perfusion imaging, but the effects of drugs on IMP distribution could affect its utility. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
This was done in two ways: first, r was calculated between the 'absolute' foot rotation angle in each condition and the corresponding PFM and IMP values obtained. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Results of the ANOVAs performed on selected FM variables (table 2) reveal that PFM and IMP were significantly affected by foot rotation condition. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Second, r was calculated between the relative change in foot rotation angle in the INT and EXT foot rotation conditions and the corresponding change in PFM and IMP with respect to normal walking. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
However, it is interesting to note that changes in either absolute or relative PFM and IMP were not particularly dependent on the absolute or relative foot rotation angle adopted during stance. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
In 20 HT adult recipients with grade 3A cellular rejection, there was a mean increase of IMP by 98% (p < 0.0001) during the AAR episode and a decrease to its baseline values after treatment; in addition, the change in IMP was independent of both baseline EF and EF changes during AAR [23]. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
It is possible that during AAR IVRT fall is counterbalanced by ICT prolongation and this may result in no significant change of IMP.
| |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
However, in another experience [24], the comparison of intra-recipient changes in Doppler intervals between rejection and non-rejection states demonstrated prolongation of IVRT and shortening of ICT during AAR, with no change in the IMP. | |||||||||||||||
