The double contrast artrography is a diagnostic method in which positive contrast material (MCP) is injected in the joint space followed by negative contrast in order to outline lesions on the articular surfaces and adjacent ...

Previous research indicated that the suppression of consummatory behavior that follows incentive downshift in male rats is attenuated by testosterone (T) administration during training. The present experiments were designed ...

The anxiolytic properties of ethanol (1 g/kg, 15% dose, i.p.) were studied in two experiments with rats involving incentive downshifts from a 32% to a 4% sucrose solution. In Experiment 1, alcohol administration before a ...

Background. The radioguided localization of occult breast lesions (ROLL) technique often utilizes iodinated radiographic contrast to assure that the local injection of (99m)Tc-MAA corresponds to the location of the lesion ...

INTRODUCTION: Subarachnoid hemorrhage is a neurosurgical emergency that requires timely diagnosis due to its severity and the existence of therapeutic measures that are effective when carried out in time. The most used ...

In rats, a change from a preferred solution (e.g. 32% sucrose) to a less preferred (e.g. 4%) produces an abrupt decrement in consumption below the levels of an unshifted group that always had access to the less preferred ...

Posttrial administration of corticosterone was previously shown to enhance consummatory successive negative contrast (cSNC) in rats. The present series of experiments provides additional information that helps determine ...
