...Paul MARSHALL; Jawad AL-TIMMAN; Rhona RILEY; Jay WRIGHT; Simon WILLIAMS; Roger HAINSWORTH; Lip-Bun TAN There is evidence that multiple benefits can be obtained through exercise training that leads to increases in peak oxygen consumption ( O 2 ). It is unclear whether significant improvements can...

Oxidant production was determined by three methods, namely luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence, oxygen consumption and cytochemical staining. 3. Calcium antagonists inhibited oxidant production by neutrophils. IC 50 values for diltiazem...

...Jean-Francois Liard 1. Arginine vasopressin reduces whole-body oxygen consumption in conscious dogs. To determine whether this decrease could result from limited oxygen delivery, studies were performed in two groups of chronically instrumented dogs. 2. In the first group ( n = 7), vasopressin...
