bethanechol and Body Weight

bethanechol has been researched along with Body Weight in 7 studies

Bethanechol: A slowly hydrolyzing muscarinic agonist with no nicotinic effects. Bethanechol is generally used to increase smooth muscle tone, as in the GI tract following abdominal surgery or in urinary retention in the absence of obstruction. It may cause hypotension, HEART RATE changes, and BRONCHIAL SPASM.
bethanechol : The carbamic acid ester of 2-methylcholine. A slowly hydrolysed muscarinic agonist with no nicotinic effects, it is used as its chloride salt to increase smooth muscle tone, as in the gastrointestinal tract following abdominal surgery, treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, and as an alternative to catheterisation in the treatment of non-obstructive urinary retention.

Body Weight: The mass or quantity of heaviness of an individual. It is expressed by units of pounds or kilograms.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" The results of these studies can be summarized as follows: 1) body weight and bladder weight increased in proportion to each other, bladder capacity increase proportionally with development until eight weeks of age, then increased substantially greater than body and bladder weight between eight and 11 to 15 weeks of age; 2) the ability to empty is similar for all ages; 3) pressure responsiveness to field stimulation, bethanechol, and ATP is greater at one day? of age, intermediate at one week of age, and similar for the other age groups; 4) The response to ATP (purinergic transmitter) is of an equal magnitude to the cholinergic response at one day, and reduces rapidly to approximately 45% of the cholinergic response by four weeks."3.68Ontogeny of bladder function in the rabbit. ( Duckett, JW; Keating, MA; Levin, RM; Potter, L; Snyder, HM; Wein, AJ, 1990)
" Body weight, pancreas weight, DNA, protein, amylase, chymotrypsinogen, and trypsinogen decreased in riboflavin-deficient animals."3.67In vitro assay of pancreatic acinar-cell function of rats made chronically riboflavin deficient.
