Journal ArticleDOI

Direct measurement of free radical generation following reperfusion of ischemic myocardium

TL;DR: These experiments directly demonstrate that reactive oxygen-centered free radicals are generated in hearts during ischemia and that a burst of oxygen radical generation occurs within moments of reperfusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement and characterization of postischemic free radical generation in the isolated perfused heart.

TL;DR: Direct and spin trapping measurements of the time course and mechanisms of radical generation were performed in isolated perfused rabbit hearts, demonstrating that .O2- derived .OH, R., and ROO radicals are generated in postischemic myocardium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intravenous nitroglycerin in acute myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that intravenous nitroglycerin improved left ventricular function and decreased the extent of myocardial ischemia, and that longer infusion may act to preserve borderline ischemic myocardium and thus limit infarct size.
