“…Thus, it may be that maintained increased intra-abdominal pressure causes widespread dysfunction, which would be similar to the severe syndromes observed in rats with the occlusion of peripheral vessels ( Vukojevic et al, 2018 ; Gojkovic et al, 2020 ; Kolovrat et al, 2020 ; Knezevic et al, 2021a ; Knezevic et al, 2021a ; Knezevic et al, 2021b ) and central vessels ( Gojkovic et al, 2021a ) or after the intragastric application of absolute alcohol ( Gojkovic et al, 2021b ) and intraperitoneal application of the lithium overdose ( Strbe et al, 2021 ). These peripheral and central deficits can include severe gastrointestinal lesions, intracranial (superior sagittal sinus) hypertension, brain swelling and lesions, portal and caval hypertension, aortic hypotension, peripheral and central thrombosis, inferior caval vein and superior mesenteric vein congestion, azygos vein failure, electrocardiogram (ECG) disturbances, and heart, lung, liver, and kidney lesions ( Vukojevic et al, 2018 ; Gojkovic et al, 2020 ; Kolovrat et al, 2020 ; Gojkovic et al, 2021a ; Knezevic et al, 2021a ; Knezevic et al, 2021a ; Gojkovic et al, 2021b ; Knezevic et al, 2021b ; Strbe et al, 2021 ). Syndrome development and treatment with BPC 157 have been demonstrated in a variety of procedures inducing vessel occlusion ( Vukojevic et al, 2018 ; Gojkovic et al, 2020 ; Kolovrat et al, 2020 ; Gojkovicc et al, 2021a ; Knezevic et al, 2021a ; Knezevic et al, 2021a ; Gojkovic et al, 2021b ; Knezevic et al, 2021b ; Strbe et al, 2021 ).…”
