Cerebrovasodilatory contribution of endogenous carbon monoxide during seizures in newborn pigs.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Corticosteroids have been widely used in clinical medicine as a first-line therapy to modify the inflammatory response in many pulmonary and systemic diseases. Inhaled and intratracheally administered corticosteroids have a particular interest in that their use allows the clinician to circumvent systemic s...
