Feasibility of Cognitive Training in Critically Ill Patients: A Pilot Study

TL;DR: Cognitive training exercises used in this study were feasible for intensive care unit patients (including cooperative patients with delirium) and their nurses and were rated as practicable and not burdensome by the patients and the nurses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Presence and mechanism of direct vascular effects of amiloride in humans.

TL;DR: At high concentrations, amiloride exerts direct vasodilator activity in human arterial vasculature in vivo, and appears to depend on alpha-adrenergic receptor blockade, but shows interaction with angiotensin II, an activator of Na+/ H+ exchange.

Journal ArticleDOI

Vasopressors Do Not Influence Cerebral Critical Closing Pressure During Systemic Inflammation Evoked by Experimental Endotoxemia and Sepsis in Humans.

TL;DR: Experimental human endotoxemia results in a decreased CrCP due to a loss of vascular resistance of the arterial bed, and vasopressors did not prevent this decrease in CrCP.
