(1) Cor triatriatum (CT) is a rare congenital defect, surgically correctable, and sometimes difficult to diagnose by cardiac catheterization.
(2) This report describes two patients with long-term catheter use who developed increasing respiratory failure and cor pulmonale, at least in part, due to a large tracheal mucus plug.
(3) The cisplatin resistant variants of NCI-H69 and COR-L23 showed 31% and 63% increases, respectively, in Do compared to their parent lines, whereas no change in radiation response was seen in MOR.
(4) Because of the high frequency of chronic cor pulmonale in workers admitted to the cardiology department of the Khazaneh Hospital in Teheran, we studied the clinical aspect and the risk factors of this disease in 66 male patients.
(5) In this study, the COR was observed to shift linearly with zoom factor.
(6) The carotid occlusion response (COR) in dogs was inhibited by 50 and 58% after intracerebroventricular injection of norepinephrine and hydrochloric acid, both at the pH 2.9.
(7) Before surgery, these patients all had severe pulmonary hypertension and cor pulmonale as well as significant abnormalities in lung function (mechanics and gas exchange).
(8) Experimental amniotic fluid embolism in animals produces profound pulmonary hypertension and acute cor pulmonale without evidence of left ventricular compromise.
(9) Nitric acid and elastase were injected into the tracheae of Wistar white rats and the effect of bronchiolitis on the pathogenesis of experimental emphysema and cor pulmonale was studied.
(10) Cor triatriatum dexter is rare and is infrequently diagnosed before postmortem study; however, once the diagnosis is extablished, the condition is amenable to a relatively simple surgical correction.
(11) Diagnostic capability of Fuji Computed Radiography (FCR) of the chest was compared to the conventional radiography (CoR) using regular film-screen system.
(12) The involvement of pulmonary alveolar capillaries causing sudden cor pulmonale is very rare.
(13) The Commons will love it,” Chairman Jez Cor-Bao had said.
(14) This hypothesis was tested by observing the response to an intravenous saline challenge in patients with and without cor pulmonale.
(15) The morphologic changes of the right heart occurring in chronic cor pulmonale can be detected by means of twodimensional echocardiography.
(16) It is thought that Doppler studies in cor triatriatum will provide useful complementary haemodynamic information in the echocardiographic diagnosis of this anomaly.
(17) We present an adult with echocardiographic diagnosis of cor triatriatum.
(18) Herein we describe two patients with unsuspected microscopic pulmonary tumor embolism that eventuated in subacute cor pulmonale and death.
(19) Diagnosis of cor pulmonale and evaluation of cardiac function in patients with advanced lung disease are of more than academic interest.
(20) This rare syndrome results in alveolar hypoventilation, hypercarbia, hypoxaemia with secondary polycythaemia, pulmonary artery hypertension, and cor pulmonale.

Definition:
(prep.) In the most general sense, indicating that in consideration of, in view of, or with reference to, which anything is done or takes place.
(prep.) Indicating the antecedent cause or occasion of an action; the motive or inducement accompanying and prompting to an act or state; the reason of anything; that on account of which a thing is or is done.
