Plasma cortisol and ACTH concentrations were measured in two groups of children (aged 1-16 yr). Ten children underwent routine (non-pulsatile) cardiopulmonary bypass and 10 underwent pulsatile bypass under moderate hypothermia (28-32 degrees C). Comparable increases in cortisol and ACTH concentrations were demonstrated at the onset of bypass and the concentrations of both hormones increased during bypass. In the post-bypass period plasma cortisol concentration increased sharply; there was no further increase in the plasma ACTH concentration. By 24 h the concentrations of both hormones had declined towards baseline values. There were no significant differences between the groups.

D006854 Hydrocortisone The main glucocorticoid secreted by the ADRENAL CORTEX. Its synthetic counterpart is used, either as an injection or topically, in the treatment of inflammation, allergy, collagen diseases, asthma, adrenocortical deficiency, shock, and some neoplastic conditions.

D000324 Adrenocorticotropic Hormone An anterior pituitary hormone that stimulates the ADRENAL CORTEX and its production of CORTICOSTEROIDS. ACTH is a 39-amino acid polypeptide of which the N-terminal 24-amino acid segment is identical in all species and contains the adrenocorticotrophic activity. Upon further tissue-specific processing, ACTH can yield ALPHA-MSH and corticotrophin-like intermediate lobe peptide (CLIP).

D012212 Rheology The study of the deformation and flow of matter, usually liquids or fluids, and of the plastic flow of solids. The concept covers consistency, dilatancy, liquefaction, resistance to flow, shearing, thixotrophy, and VISCOSITY. Flowmetry,Velocimetry,Velocimetries
