Abstract:

The following is a study to determine if sufficient demand exists to start a Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degree program in dental hygiene through a joint agreement for completion degrees between Valencia Community College and the University of Central Florida. To accomplish this objective two survey instruments were administered to randomly selected licensed dentists and dental hygienists in the state of Florida. Dental hygienists represented the potential student base for the proposed programs, and dentists represented the potential and prospective employers of graduated student

Abstract:

Hypertension leads to vascular complications including endothelial dysfunction, heart failure and stroke. The purpose of the present studies was to investigate the chronic and acute impact of high pressure on vascular responsiveness. In Study I, isometric tension measurements demonstrated that contractions to phenylephrine, in the presence of indomethacin (inhibitor of cyclooxygenase), were smaller in aortae of spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) with, than in those without, endothelium, while they were comparable in such preparations of normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rat (WKY); the difference

Abstract:

An individual who is diagnosed with an inherited bleeding disorder is expected to manage his or her condition on a daily basis. This chronic situation can totally disrupt psychosocial functioning and make it more difficult to adjust to the illness. Other researchers have studied this phenomenon in various other chronic illnesses; however, not in individuals with inherited bleeding disorders (Akkasilpa, et al, 2000, Pollack, 1989a, 1989b). Psychosocial problems are not restricted to individuals with one chronic illness and clinically, it is noted that some individuals adjust to chronic diseases

Abstract:

The worldwide population of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is growing, with estimated prevalence at 12-15% of adults. Of particular concern are those with late stage CKD, defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)of less than 30 ml/min/1.73m2, as they are susceptible to the highest risk of adverse outcomes such as progression to end stage kidney disease (ESKD), cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality (1, 2). As such, late stage CKD patients are often managed in specialized clinics with set clinical targets, standardized education and multi-disciplinary care(3)

At 2 months of age arterial blood pressure was recorded intravascularly using telemetry. Systolic, mean, and pulse pressures were significantly greater in hypoxic pre-treated groups of both sexes compared to controls (p < 0.05). Neonatal hypox

Abstract:

Childhood chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a devastating illness requiring life-long medical input, often progressing to end stage kidney disease (ESKD) requiring dialysis and renal transplantation. Despite an increasing number of children now surviving through childhood and early adulthood, heart disease remains one of the major causes of death in individuals with childhood-onset CKD as young adults and it is likely this relates to onset of pre-clinical cardiovascular disease developing during childhood. Arterial stiffening relates to the severity of CKD, being greatest in those with dialysis

Recent reports of severe and fatal adverse effects related to energy drinks have led to growing concerns on the safety of energy drink consumption.

OBJECTIVE: To determine if applying electroacupuncture at ST 36-37 will lower the systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressures of chronic hypertensive rats. DESIGN: A 12 week study on the effect of electroacupuncture was conducted from September 2014 to December 2014. The total number of rats used in the study was 16 (n=16). The rats were divided into four groups: Electroacupuncture, Sham-EA, Hypertensive control, and Normotensive control. All of the rats, expect for those in the Normotensive group, were housed in the cold room to induce chronic hypertension. After 8 weeks in the cold room

Regular exercise thus exerts counteracting effects on stress-evoked cardiovascular responses and such interactions may happen in the central control machinery in the brain. In addition to the well-known cardiovascular center in the medulla, the hypothalamus should also play an important role in the central control of cardiovascular performance.

The mechanism and components of soy responsible have not been fully established.

Abstract:

Aerobic exercise is recommended as a lifestyle intervention to reduce blood pressure (BP) in individuals with elevated BP (SBP/DBP >120/80 mmHg). However, the BP response is highly variable after both acute (SBP/DBP: –27 to 9/-8 to 7mmHg) and chronic aerobic exercise (-20 to 9/ -11 to 11.3mmHg). We attempt to identify those who are resistant or responsive to training based on their responses to acute (one-bout) exercise. 17 prehypertensive (120 to 139/80 to 89mmHg) males and females (45-60yrs) underwent acute exercise assessments before and after an 8-week walking/jogging program.

Abstract:

Introduction and Purpose: In chronic heart failure (CHF), exercise rehabilitation results in a reduced risk of mortality, decreased disease severity, and increased functional ability. Resistance training is an important component of cardiac rehabilitation; however, an optimal training velocity that produces physiological and functional benefits at minimal perceived exertion and cardiovascular stress has yet to be identified. CHF patients need to be very efficient and perform the exercise that will give them the greatest benefits because of their poor exercise tolerance and increased risk of c

碩士<br>慈濟大學<br>神經科學研究所<br>96<br>Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), such as that occurring in association with sleep apnea, may result in systemic hypertension. Importantly, sleep apnea occurs frequently in the hypertensive patients. Intermittent hypoxia seems to resemble hypoxia-reoxygenation, wherein cellular generation of reactive oxygen species, especially superoxide anion is increased during reoxygenation. In this study, we proposed that intermittent hypoxia (IH) induced exaggerated arterial chemoreflex sensitivity in hypertensive subjects, and further contribute to development of impaired
