Using 31 P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, skeletal muscle intracellular bioenergetics of the leg were studied...

... plasma tri-iodothyronine levels (41%). However, the effects of endotoxaemia (48 h) on glucose metabolism in muscle are similar to those caused by hyperthyroidism. In hypothyroid rats, endotoxin administration increased the rates of glycolysis in muscle in vitro. 7. It is concluded that there are enhanced...

... ) and tri-iodothyronine (T 3 ) was therefore investigated in five patients with uncomplicated essential hypertension, treated with propranolol in doses from 160 to 480 mg/day. 3. Four of the five patients developed one or more of the above-mentioned symptoms within 2–6 days after withdrawal of propranolol...
