## Abstract Laboratory experiments were undertaken to investigate the influences of exposure duration and frequency on the toxicity of shortβterm pulses of low dissolved oxygen (DO) to fish. For the investigation of exposure duration, rainbow trout (__Oncorhynchus mykiss__ [Walbaum]) and roach (__R
This study was aimed at investigating the effects of propranolol on esophageal variceal pressure in patients with portal hypertension. Variceal pressure was measured at endoscopy using a miniature pressure-sensitive gauge in 20 patients with portal hypertension. Measurements were obtained under bas
