Disease relevance of Baritop

  • 'Radiopaque' foreign bodies [1].
  • Diaphragmatic and retrosternal lymph vessels became radiopaque within 30 hours of the ip injection of radiopaque contrast material in control animals without ascites and in 12 experimental mice receiving contrast material 1-3 days after injection of tumor cells [2].
  • Using the radionuclide technique, postprandial gallbladder emptying (t1/2) was prolonged (p less than 0.01) both in patients with radiopaque (26.7 +/- 3.1 min, mean +/- SEM) and radiolucent (21.7 +/- 3.1) gallstones when compared with controls (10.2 +/- 1.5) [3].
  • The purposes of this study were to determine the association, in 10 pedigrees, between adenomatous polyposis coli, hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, and occult radiopaque jaw lesions, and to assess whether these radiodensities are predictors for adenomatous polyposis [4].
  • In contrast, not all of the solid radiopaque markers emptied from the stomach by 6 h in 16 of 26 experiments in patients with diabetes mellitus (p less than 0.001 vs. healthy controls) [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on Baritop

  • Transit time studies were performed using 10 radiopaque markers [6].
  • Group 1 (n = 25) ingested 150-mL aliquots of 2% barium sulfate suspension with meals and snacks for 48 hours prior to imaging, without other diet modification or a cathartic [7].
  • In patients with a history of radiopaque stones in this size range, therefore, AXR may provide useful size data for clinical decision-making without concern about significant disparities between the two modalities [8].

Chemical compound and disease context of Baritop

 

Biological context of Baritop

  • Influence of food and marker length on gastric emptying of indigestible radiopaque markers in healthy humans [18].
  • The distances between three or four radiopaque markers located on the left ventricular epicardial surface at the apex and in the region of the minor axes in 22 subjects showed close correlations with left ventricular chamber radii, length, volume and wall thickness determined from biplane angiograms over the range of stroke volume [19].
  • Treatment of the patient's plasma in vitro with protamine or barium sulfate normalized the thrombin time [20].
  • Epicardial wall motion was analyzed using biplane cineradiography with frame to frame measurements of distances between pairs of radiopaque epicardial markers placed at the time of previous cardiac surgery [21].
  • The relation between acute disproportionate infarct dilation and late postinfarct left ventricular remodeling was examined by implanting multiple radiopaque epicardial markers in the left ventricle of eight dogs and determining regional surface deformation after acute and chronic transmural infarction [22].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Baritop

  • Forty-four severely constipated women and 16 (8 female, 8 male) asymptomatic volunteers underwent assessment of colon function by (a) clinical examination, (b) rectosigmoid intraluminal pressure recording, (c) colonic transit utilizing radiopaque markers, (d) anorectal manometry, and (e) rectosigmoid electrical activity [38].
  • Using a water-cushion lithotripter at high-power setting, selected patients with solitary gallbladder stones with a radiopaque rim may be treated safely and successfully by shock-wave lithotripsy combined with bile acid dissolution therapy [10].
  • Although most of the liquid component of the meal, labeled with 111In, emptied during the first hour (as assessed simultaneously by radionuclide scintigraphy), few radiopaque markers emptied from the stomach during the first 2 h after the meal [5].
  • Fluid therapy in severe systemic reaction to radiopaque dye [39].
  • We therefore investigated the immediate and short-term effects on arterial patency of a new, radiopaque, balloon-expandable coil stent in normal coronary arteries of pigs [40].
