Like the Statute of Liberty, Ellis Island's main building is a French-inspired symbol of the U.S. There are some lovely photos of the architecture on nyc-architecture.com. Only a third of immigrants admitted to the U.S. at Ellis Island remained in New York. The rest scattered across the country, so that 40 percent of current U.S. citizens trace their family histories back to the island.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. A nitrovasodilator is a pharmaceutical agent that causes vasodilation (widening of blood vessels) by donation of nitric oxide (NO), and is mostly used for the treatment and prevention of angina pectoris. This group of drugs includes nitrates (esters of nitric acid), which are reduced to NO in the body. Examples are:
-Dopamine is a vasopressor, so does it increase afterload only? -Hydrocholorothiazide is a diuretic so since it decreases volume does it decrease preload and afterload?-Epi is a vasoconstrictor so that would have to increase afterload.-Nipride is a vasodilator, so does this decrease afterload only. (Or, would it decrease preload as well since there would be more blood in the periphery due to the vasodilation?)
