Effects of phytoncides on blood pressure under restraint stress in SHRSP.

abstract：:1. Raised intracranial pressure (ICP) is a major factor associated with morbidity and mortality in patients with severe head injury. Identifying the mechanisms responsible for raised ICP may be difficult and, as a result, treatment prescribed may be non-specific and often ineffective. 2. Research aimed at obtaining mo...

abstract：:1. In rats, inhibition of type IV phosphodiesterase (PDE4) attenuates acute renal failure and early (hours) mortality induced by high-dose endotoxin. Because it is unlikely that protection of renal function accounts for improved early survivability, most likely PDE4 inhibition exerts multiple beneficial effects in end...
