Comparison of the Acute Hematopoietic Capacities of Erythropoietin and U-74389G Concerning Hematocrit Levels.

Aim: This study compared the hematopoietic capacities of erythropoietin (Epo) and antioxidant drug U-74389G, based on 2 preliminary studies. The provided results on hematocrit levels augmentation were co-evaluated in a hypoxia reoxygenation protocol of an animal model.

Materials And Methods: Hematocrit levels were evaluated at the 60th reoxygenation min (for groups A, C and E) and at the 120th reoxygenation min (for groups B, D and F) in 60 rats.

The Effect of the Antioxidant Drug "U-74389G" on Creatinine Levels during Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in Rats.

Objective: The aim of this experimental study was to examine the effect of the antioxidant drug "U-74389G" on a rat model using an ischemia reperfusion protocol. The effect of U-74389G was studied biochemically by measuring mean blood creatinine levels.

Materials And Methods: Forty rats were used in the study.

The Acute Effect of the Antioxidant Drug U-74389G on Red Blood Cell Distribution Width Levels During Hypoxia Reoxygenation Injury in Rats.

Unlabelled: The AIM of this experimental study was to evaluate the effect of the antioxidant drug "U-74389G" in a rat model of hypoxia reoxygenation (HR) using the previously established protocol. Effects of treatment were evaluated by mean red blood cell distribution width (RDW) levels.

Materials And Methods: 40 rats of a mean weight of 231.

Antioxidant 21-aminosteroid "U-74389G" ameliorates the short-time effect of hypoxia-reoxygenation on the platelet count in rats.

Aim: The aim of this experimental study was to examine the effect of the antioxidant drug "U-74389G", on rat model and particularly in a hypoxia-reoxygenation protocol. The beneficial effect or non-effectiveness of that molecule were studied hematologically using blood mean platelet count. Results were that U-74389G administration interacted or not with reoxygenation time decreased the platelet count by 6.

The effect of erythropoietin on serum uric acid levels during renal ischemia reperfusion injury in rats.

Objective: The aim of this experimental study was to assess the effect of erythropoietin on a rat model, particularly under a renal ischemia reperfusion protocol. The beneficial or lack of effects of that molecule on the excreted renal product of serum uric acid were studied biochemically.

Material And Methods: Forty rats were used with a mean weight of 247.

L-thyroxine therapy attenuates the decline in serum triiodothyronine in nonthyroidal illness induced by hysterectomy.

It is controversial whether the administration of thyroid hormone to patients with nonthyroidal illness has any beneficial effect. Two groups of patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy under the same general anesthesia were studied. Group A consisted of 15 women taking chronically l-thyroxine therapy (1.
