Musculature prevention

In addition to being used as antianginal and antiarrhythmic agents, calcium channel blockers are used to treat weak and moderate hypertension. These drugs prevent calcium ions from entering into the smooth muscle cells of peripheral vessels, and they cause relaxation of peripheral vessels, which leads to lowering of arterial blood pressure. In clinically used doses, calcium channel blockers relax smooth musculature of arteries and have little effect on veins. In doses that relax smooth musculature, calcium channel blockers have relatively little effect on cardiac contractility. 

Diltiazem reduces transmembrane influx of calcium ions into cardiac muscle cells and vascular smooth musculature. It causes widening of coronary and peripheral vessels. It increases coronary blood flow, thus, preventing the development of coronary artery spasms. It lowers elevated blood pressure and reduces tachycardia. 

Theophylline reduces contractile activity of smooth musculature, widens bronchi and blood vessels, reduces pulmonary vascular resistance, stimulates the respiratory center, and increases the frequency and power of cardiac contractions. It is used for bronchial asthma, preventing attacks, and systematic treatment. Theophylline is also used for symptomatic treatment of bronchospastic syndrome of a different etiology (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic bronchitis, and pulmonary emphysema). A large number of combined drags are based on theophylline. Synonyms of theophylline are adophyllin, asthmophyllin, theocin, and many others. 

This drug exhibits broncholytic action by reducing cholinergic influence on bronchial musculature (m-cholinoblocking action). It relieves bronchial spasms. It is used to treat and prevent minor and moderate bronchial asthma, especially asthma that is accompanied by cardiovascular system diseases. Synonyms of this drug are atrovent, introp, iprafen, and... 

Use of Testosterone Propionate /Dianabol/Winstrol Depot caused a rapid increase in both strength and mass while adding additional quality to my musculature. By switching to Deca Durabolin at week 5 and adding Clenbuterol at week 9,1 was able to further solidify the gains made during the mass phase and prevent excessive strength and mass loss post-cycle. 

These injections can likewise enable patients to wear and use orthotic devices more effectively. Injection into the triceps surae musculature can improve the fit and function of an ankle-foot orthosis by preventing excessive plantar flexor spasticity from pistoning the foot out of the orthosis.49 Injections into severely spastic muscles can also increase patient comfort and ability to perform ADL and hygiene activities. Consider, for example, the patient with severe upper extremity flexor spasticity following a CVA. Local injection of botulinum toxin into the affected muscles may enable the patient to extend his or her elbow, wrist, and fingers, thereby allowing better hand cleansing, ability to dress, decreased pain, and so forth.7... 

Furthermore, it seems that the female herself may control the mechanism by which one set of sperm is favored over the other. If females are anesthetized, so that they are presumably prevented from activating the musculature by which they ordinarily convey the sperm, the normal routing of sperm is inhibited. The sperm themselves are not inactivated by the anesthesia, indicating that it is not on their own that they ordinarily sort themselves out. 

The smallest structural unit of skeletal musculature is the striated muscle fiber. It contracts in response to an impulse of its motor nerve. In executing motor programs, the brain sends impulses to the spinal cord. These converge on a-motoneurons in the anterior hom of the spinal medulla. Bundled in motor nerves, efferent axons course to skeletal muscles. Simple reflex contractions to sensory stimuli, conveyed via the dorsal roots to the motoneurons, occur without participation of the brain. Neural circuits that propagate afferent impulses into the spinal cord contain inhibitory intemeurons. These serve to prevent a possible overexcitation of motoneurons (or excessive muscle contractions) due to the constant barrage of sensory stimuli. 

Twice a day, 10 to 15 slow knee-bends (= thigh muscles), plus 10 to 15 times standing on tiptoe (= calf muscles), plus 10 to 15 times upper arm flexing (= biceps), plus 10 to 15 times bending from the waist (= back muscles). This activates >60% of the total musculature on a daily basis without any special effort or expense, i.e. in the home environment, in all weathers . Such regular exercise is essential for both prevention and treatment of osteopathy. 

The uses of neostigmine are similar to those of physostig-mioe but differ in exhibiting greater miotic activity, fewer ind less unpleasant local and systemic manifestations, and treater chemical stability. The most frequent application of neostigmine is to prevent atony of the intestinal, skeletal, and bindder musculature. An important u.sc is in the treatment of... 

Sotalol hydrochloride is a beta-adrenergic-blocking agent, which blocks beta receptors, which primarily affect heart (slows rate), vascular musculature (decreases BP), and lungs (reduces function). Betapace is used in the management or prevention of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. Betapace AT is used in the maintenance of normal sinus rhythm in patients with highly symptomatic atrial fibrilla-tion/atrial flutter (AFIB/AFL) (Betapace AF). 

The vasoconstrictor action of shed blood tested by perfusion of the rabbit ear is markedly decreased by heparin and this was known long before the identification of the vasoconstrictor activity as serotonin (5-hydroxytryp-tamine). Heparin inhibits the release of both 5-hydroxytryptamine and a polypeptide from platelets into plasma, and in vitro there is mutual antagonism between heparin and 5-hydroxytryptamine . Heparin effectively antagonizes the effect of serotonin on pulmonary vascular bed and bronchial wall musculature and prevents the symptoms of 5-HT release in pulmonary embolism, in the cardiopulmonary by-pass, in experimental burn injuries and in carcinoid tumour.
