Avoid creating questions that (i) can't be answered correctly without actually understanding the passage and (ii) uses the same words or phrases given in the passage.

[Q]: Context: Cyclosporine causes intrarenal vasoconstriction, which may account for its nephrotoxic side effects. Plasma levels of the vasoconstrictor peptide endothelin-1 are increased after cyclosporine administration, and endothelin-1 has been shown to cause renal vasoconstriction. In this study we used in vivo microscopy to investigate the role of endothelin-1 in cyclosporine-induced vasoconstriction.', 'Hydronephrotic kidneys in decerebrate rats were suspended in an environmentally controlled tissue bath with neurovascular supply intact. Interlobular, afferent, and efferent arteriolar diameters and flow were measured by videomicroscopy and Doppler velocimetry. Cyclosporine was added to the tissue bath, and measurements were repeated for 60 minutes. In study groups endogenous endothelin-1 was blocked by infusion of either specific endothelin antiserum or an endothelin-1 receptor antagonist.', 'Cyclosporine caused constriction of the interlobular artery by 20% +/- 2% and a corresponding decrease in blood flow by 66% +/- 4%. The afferent and efferent arterioles constricted to a similar degree. This vasoconstriction was entirely prevented by infusion of either the endothelin antiserum or the receptor antagonist. The antagonist reagents alone had no effect on hemodynamic parameters or renal microvessel diameters.
Answer: The acute renal vasoconstriction induced by cyclosporine is mediated by endothelin-1. Endogenous endothelin-1 has little role in maintaining basal vascular tone.

[Q]: Context: Two years ago the authors began to use Swan-Ganz catheters to generate more complex hemodynamic data as a better guide to resuscitation of burns. This study uses the information to identify differences between survivors and nonsurvivors.', 'Fifty-three consecutive patients with major burns were treated using Swan-Ganz-generated data. Additional information was collected, including demographics, intake and output, medications, and arterial blood gas (including calculated oxygen consumption). Statistical analysis incorporated adjustments for autocorrelation.', 'The patients included 38 men and 15 women, averaged 43.7 years of age, and had a mean burn size of 40%. Thirteen patients suffered severe inhalation injury. Data collected hourly over 3 days were collapsed across 6-hour observation periods. Mean values, when plotted across time, discriminated the 37 survivors from the 16 nonsurvivors. Poor response to resuscitation as evidenced by increased use of colloid fluid and cardiotonic drugs plus failure to maximize oxygen consumption were associated with nonsurvival.
Answer: Unsustained or inadequate response to hyperdynamic resuscitation of burns was associated with nonsurvival.
[A]: Do survival in major burn injuries is predicted by early response to Swan-Ganz-guided resuscitation?


[Q]: Context: Preeclampsia is a serious disorder of pregnancy characterized by hypertension, proteinuria, edema, and coagulation and vascular abnormalities. At the cellular level, abnormalities include increased calcium concentration in platelets, lymphocytes, and erythrocytes. Recent studies have shown that antibodies directed against angiotensin II type I (AT1) receptors are also highly associated with preeclampsia.', 'We tested the hypothesis that AT1 receptor-agonistic antibodies (AT1-AAs) could activate AT1 receptors, leading to an increased intracellular concentration of free calcium and to downstream activation of Ca2+ signaling pathways. Sera of 30 pregnant patients, 16 diagnosed with severe preeclampsia and 14 normotensive, were examined for the presence of IgG capable of stimulating intracellular Ca2+ mobilization. IgG from all preeclamptic patients activated AT1 receptors and increased intracellular free calcium. In contrast, none of the normotensive individuals had IgG capable of activating AT1 receptors. The specific mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ by AT1-AAs was blocked by losartan, an AT1 receptor antagonist, and by a 7-amino-acid peptide that corresponds to a portion of the second extracellular loop of the AT1 receptor. In addition, we have shown that AT1-AA-stimulated mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ results in the activation of the transcription factor, nuclear factor of activated T cells.
Answer: These results suggest that maternal antibodies capable of activating AT1 receptors are likely to account for increased intracellular free Ca2+ concentrations and changes in gene expression associated with preeclampsia.
