Do prostaglandins modulate renal haemodynamic effects of endothelin-1 in conscious lambs?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
To test the hypothesis that vasodilatory prostaglandins buffer the renal vasoconstrictor effects of endothelin-1 (ET-1) early in life, renal haemodynamic responses to ET-1 were measured in 2 groups of conscious, chronically instrumented lambs at 1-2 weeks of age (group I, n = 11) and 6 weeks of age (group II, n = 10). Lambs were pretreated with vehicle or 1 mg x kg(-1) indomethacin, a nonselective cyclooxygenase inhibitor, and renal haemodynamic effects were measured continuously for 1 min before (control) and 5 min after intra-arterial injection of 250 ng x kg(-1) ET-1. In group II lambs, there was a marked decrease in renal blood flow (RBF) and renal vascular conductance (RVC) elicited by ET-1 administration, as we have previously described. This response was not altered by vehicle or indomethacin pretreatment. In group I lambs, there was an initial increase but no decrease in RBF and RVC elicited by ET-1 administration, as we have previously described, and this response was also not altered by either vehicle or indomethacin. These results suggest that endogenously produced prostaglandins do not appear to modulate the renal haemodynamic effects of ET-1 in conscious lambs during postnatal maturation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
