The direct effect of isoproterenol on renal function, when given intravenously, is usually obscured by its potent hypotensive action. To obviate the latter action, isoproterenol was infused directly into one renal artery of the dog, the other kidney serving as a control for the general action. And following results were obtained. In the first series of experiments, the directic action of isoproterenol was ascertained. $1.0\;{\mu}g/kg/min$. reduced on both kidneys the urine flow, clearances of PAH and creatinine, as well as the amount of sodium excreted, but the effect was weaker on the experimental side than on contralateral side. With $0.1\;{\mu}g/kg/min$., two cases among 6 experiments showed marked diuresis, two cases no apparent effect, and another two marked antidiuresis on the experimental kidney, whereas the contralateral kidney exhibited antidiuresis in all cases. Further reducing the dose unmasked the diuretic action on the ,experimental kidney. In another series, the effects of isoproterenol on the blood flow distribution within the kidney and on sodium concentration gradient within the kidney tissue were observed. $0.05\;{\mu}g/kg/min$ isoproterenol markedly increased the medullary plasma flow and slightly increased total renal plasma flow and glomerular filtration rate, along with concomitant increase in the amount of sodium excreted and osmolar clearance, and decrease in reabsorption of free water. Sodium concentration gradient markedly decreased in the experimental kidney, reaching 2/3 of the value observed in the contralateral kidney at the papilla. It is thus concluded that isoproterenol exerts a diuretic action, when infused directly into a renal artery, and the mechanism of the action rests on its hemodynamic action, substantiated as the increase in glomerular filtration and in the medullary blood flow, resulting in washout of hyperosmolality produced by the coutercurrent multiplier system.

Prostaglandin $E_1$($PGE_1$) is known to have various physiological action such as vasodilatation, decrease of blood pressure, angiogenesis, inhibition of platelet aggregation and so forth. $PGE_1$ has been developed in many different formulations in order to overcome its chemical instability and deactivation in the lungs when administered parenterally. Lipo-AS013 is a potent drug with higher chemical stability and greater vascular wall targeting than others. The study was done on $3{\times}10cm$ model flap of dorsal skin of Sprague-Dawley rats and the flap perfusion survival were observed and documented. The flap treated with Lipo-AS013 beforehand was given intravenously Sodium fluorescein 10 minutes later, and then Percent Dye Fluorescence Index(% DFI) was calculated. The results were compared to a control group and the group administered locally epinephrine.. In the control group, the % DFI and flap survival rate increased from $54.1{\pm}6.7$ to $65.0{\pm}2.6$(p<0.01) while in Lipo-AS013 group from $55.3{\pm}2.2$ to $67.4{\pm}1.9$(p<0.01), respectively. In the epinephrine group, the % DFI(p<0.05) and flap survival rate(p<0.001) decreased. In the both epinephrine and Lipo-AS013 group Percent DFI and flap survival rate are comparable with the control group.The result indicates that the potent Lipo-AS013 enhances the blood flow and flap survival. This highly potent Lipo-AS013 may have targeting ability and accumulate $PGE_1$ onto the vascular walls. A quantitative analysis of fluorescence on the skin surface is a reliable tool to measure the blood perfusion into an ischemic flap and its viability. Further comparative study with conventional $PGE_1$ and Lipo-$PGE_1$ is needed in order to clarify the action and efficiency of Lipo-AS013.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of acupuncture for the treatment of Raynaud's disease. Methods: This review was conducted using nine electronic databases (CINAHL, CiNii, CNKI, EMBASE, J-STAGE, NDSL, OASIS, PubMed, and WANFANG) and the keywords "Raynaud's disease", "Raynaud disease", "acupuncture", and "needling". Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) using acupuncture for Raynaud's disease were included, and the methodological quality of the trials was assessed using the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool. Results: After screening, six RCTs were selected among 67, and the total effective rate and peripheral blood flow were used as evaluation methods. In five studies, the total effective rate was significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group. In three studies, peripheral blood flow was higher in the intervention group than in the control group, with two studies being statistically significant and the remaining study not being statistically significant. Conclusions: Acupuncture could be a suitable treatment without adverse effects for Raynaud's disease because it improves peripheral blood flow. However, further studies, including randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind methods, and clear evaluation criteria are needed.

Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the association between myocardial blood flow (MBF) quantified by dynamic CT myocardial perfusion imaging (CT-MPI) and the increments in heart rate (HR) after stress in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively included 204 subjects who underwent both dynamic CT-MPI and coronary CT angiography (CCTA). Patients with more than minimal coronary stenosis (diameter ≥ 25%), history of myocardial infarction/revascularization, cardiomyopathy, and microvascular dysfunction were excluded. Global MBF at stress was measured using hybrid deconvolution and maximum slope model. Furthermore, the HR increments after stress were recorded. Results: The median radiation dose of dynamic CT-MPI plus CCTA was 5.5 (4.5-6.8) mSv. The median global MBF of all subjects was 156.4 (139.8-180.4) mL/100 mL/min. In subjects with HR increment between 10 to 19 beats per minute (bpm), the global MBF was significantly lower than that of subjects with increment between 20 to 29 bpm (153.3 mL/100 mL/min vs. 171.3 mL/100 mL/min, p = 0.027). This difference became insignificant when the HR increment further increased to ≥ 30 bpm. Conclusion: The global MBF value was associated with the extent of increase in HR after stress. Significantly higher global MBF was seen in subjects with HR increment of ≥ 20 bpm.

We present an experimental setup for measuring the mechanical performance of centrifugal blood pumps. Using a 3D printer to construct supporting parts and magnetic couplings, we developed the measurement setup that can be used for various types of blood pumps. The experimental setup is equipped with sensors to measure a variety of mechanical characteristics of blood pumps including pressure, flow rate, torque, temperature, and rotating speed. Our experimental measurements for two commercial blood pumps are consistent with data provided by manufacturers, which indicates that the our setup offers the accurate measurements of blood pump performance. Utilizing the experimental setup, we tested aqueous glycerin solutions mimicking the density and viscosity of blood, which enabled us to predict the difference in operations using water and blood.

남,여 ADHD환자별 뇌혈류 상태를 비교분석하기 위하여 SPECT 영상을 획득하고, 유의수준에 따른 클러스터(cluster)의 분포변화와 혈류량 증가율과 감소율의 변화를 조사하였다. 남자 어린이 ADHD환자군 51명과 정상군 8명, 여자 어린이 ADHD환자군 13명과 정상군 4명에 대하여. Multi SPECT3 camera를 이용하여 $^{99m}Tc-ECD$를 정맥 주사후 30분에 영상을 획득하고, 뇌혈류 상태를 통계적 파라미터 지도작성법(SPM)으로 분석하였다. 정상 어린이군에 대한 남,여 환자군의 뇌혈류 증가와 감소부위의 분포를 통계적 유의수준 P<0.001부터 P<0.05 범위에서 나타내었다. 남자 어린이 ADHD환자군에서 유의수준 P<0.02에서부터 P<0.05까지 대상회전(post. cingurate gyrus)에서만 혈류가 증가되었다. 증가율의 변화는 유의수준에 영향을 받지 않았으며, 정상군보다 환자군은 평균 15.84%가 증가되었다. 여자의 경우, P<0.003에서 소뇌후엽 중앙상부, P<0.005에서 소뇌 중앙후엽과 좌측 대뇌변연엽(limbic lobe)에서 혈류증가 클러스터가 나타났다. P<0.009에서 P<0.01까지는 좌측대뇌 측두엽에서, P<0.02에서는 우측 대뇌측두엽과 좌측 대뇌 두정엽에서 혈류증가 클러스터가 나타났으며, 각 클러스터에서 평균 $24.68{\sim}31.25%$의 혈류증가율을 나타내었다. 남자 ADHD 질환군의 혈류 감소는 P<0.004에서 좌측의 대뇌 도이랑(Insula gyrus), P<0.005에서는 우측 대뇌 측두엽, P<0.007에서는 우측대뇌 전두엽, P<0.009에서 P<0.01까지는 좌측 대뇌전두엽 그리고 P<0.02에서는 대뇌전두엽 중앙이랑에서 혈류감소 클러스터가 나타났다. 혈류 감소율은 유의 수준에 의해 영향을 받지 않았으며 평균 $15.21{\sim}16.64%$의 감소율을 나타내었다. 여자어린이 ADHD환자에서는 P<0.001에서 좌측 대뇌렌즈핵(lentiform nucleus)에서만 감소되었으며, P<0.003에서는 좌우 대뇌렌즈핵에서 모두 감소되었고 P<0.005에서 P<0.01까지는 좌우의 렌즈핵 외 좌측 대뇌 측두엽이랑등 3개의 감소 클러스터가 나타났다. P<0.03에서는 좌측 대뇌두정엽과 전두엽에서 감소되었고, 평균 $30.57{\sim}30.84%$의 혈류감소율을 나타내었다. 혈류감소율은 유의수준의 변화에 영향을 받지 않았다. ADHD환자의 뇌혈류증가, 감소율이 남자보다 여자환자에서 2배 정도가 많았고, 혈류 증가와 감소클러스터분포의 차이가 있는 것으로 나타나, ADHD환자의 분석은 남, 여별로 구분하여야 할 필요가 있다고 판단된다.

본 연구는 자기공명영상을 이용한 TOF MRA 검사에서 flow rate 2.0 ml 이하의 유속을 표현함에 있어 Compressed sensing의 사용에 따른 영상의 변화를 정량적으로 측정하고자 하였다. Auto-injector와 Flow phantom을 이용하여 각각의 혈류속도 구간을 설정하고 CS를 사용하지 않은 TOF without CS 기법과 CS를 이용한 TOF with CS 기법에서 CS factor의 변화에 따른 SNR, CNR, SSIM, RMSE 등을 측정하여 비교하였다. CS factor의 증가에 따라 나타나는 영상의 영향을 검증하고자 일원배치 분산분석(One-way ANOVA)을 시행하였다. 실험 결과 CS를 사용한 TOF MRA는 CS를 사용하지 않은 TOF MRA와 비교하여 SNR 및 CNR의 유의한 차이 없이 scan time이 현저하게 감소하였다. 반면 CS factor의 증가에 따라 SSIM 및 RMSE는 TOF without CS 영상과의 차이가 증가함을 나타내었다. 따라서 TOF MRA 검사 시 CS 기법을 통해 scan time을 효율적으로 감소시키되 적절한 CS factor의 범위를 충분히 고려해야 한다. 또한 CS factor와 영상의 유사도, 정밀성에 대한 지속적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

The action of serotonin (5-Hydroxytryptamine) on the excretory function of the kidney was investigated in the dog, utilizing the clearance method and the stop-flow technique. It was shown that serotonin, $10{\mu}g/kg/min$, i. v., exerts a marked antidiuretic effects and elicits a marked hemodynamic changes in the kidney: a highly significant decrease of the glomerular filtration rate and a tendency of decrement in the renal plasma flow. Little change in the systemic blood pressure was noted, and the participation of the antidiuretic hormone in the antidiuretic action was ruled out by adding vasopressin to the infusion fluid. The stop-flow analysis showed that there is no evidence of altered activity in the tubules by serotonin. It was thus concluded that serotonin elicits anti diuresis in the dog by decreasing glomerular filtration rate, which results from the constriction of Vas afferens in the glomeruli.
