Circulation . 1997 Dec; 96(9 Suppl):II-216-20. PMID: 9386101
Background: To test our hypothesis that intracellular antioxidant enzymes constitute a cellular defense against acute stress, we studied myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in the setting of reduced level of glutathione...

Rev Mal Respir . 1991 Jan; 8(1):95-9. PMID: 2034861
We present five cases of episodic laryngeal dyskinesia. This term describes an entity associating acute dyspnea with inspiratory and/or expiratory stridor, sometimes ending in acute respiratory distress. The origin of...
