Effect of hyperthyroidism on antral myoelectrical activity, gastric emptying and dyspepsia in man.
The objective of the present study was to investigate the effect of hyperthyroidism on antral myoelectrical activity, gastric emptying and dyspepsia in man. ⋯ Dyspeptic patients with hyperthyroidism frequently display tachygastria and delayed gastric emptying. However, tachygastria has no important effect on gastric motor activity in hyperthyroidism.

Comparative StudyAn experimental study of hepatic resection using an in situ hypothermic perfusion technique.
Recently, along with the progression of hepatic surgery, the in situ hypothermic perfusion technique has been used for major hepatic resection. The aim of this study was to elucidate the utility of the hypothermic perfusion technique in hepatic resection. ⋯ The hypothermic perfusion technique in hepatic resection may be very useful in preserving the hepatocytes and sinusoidal endothelial cells and in maintaining stability of the systemic or hepatic circulation after reperfusion because of the cooling of the liver and the washing out of congested blood in the liver.
