Is dilation by isoflurane of preconstricted , very small arterioles from human right atrium mediated in part by K ( + ) -ATP channel opening?
Vasodilation of very small coronary arterioles by isoflurane depends on preexisting tone and may in part be mediated by the K(+)-ATP channels.
Education and depressive and anxious symptoms are associated with each other and risk of incident CHD. Although depressive and anxious symptoms are highest among those with lowest levels of education, they do not appear to mediate the relation between educational attainment and incident CHD. Findings suggest the importance of interventions to reduce socioeconomic disadvantage and negative affect in preventing CHD.
