Abstract:Summary.
The effect of, acute but moderate CO‐poisoning (25–32 pCt HbCO in the blood) is studied on two normal men. It is found, that the relative cell volume of the blood as well as the plasma protein concentration are augmented after inhalation of CO, suggesting a leaking‐out of fluid from the vessels, presumably due to peripheral vasodilatations. An increased rate of filtration could not be detected in the lower extremity. The amount of glucose and lactic acid in the blood is unaffected by this degree of CO… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
