Blunt cardiac trauma: the effect of alcohol on survival and metabolic function
Abstract:
Cardiac mitochondria showed significant uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation after rats were given intraperitoneal alcohol. The rate of oxygen utilization in the absence of ADP was increased while there was no significant change in oxygen utilization in the presence of ADP. These in vivo results were confirmed with in vitro experiments. Also, intraperitoneal alcohol increased the mortality of blunt cardiac trauma. The alterations in cardiac energy metabolism demonstrated may explain the increased mortality in alcohol-pretreated animals subjected to cardiac contusion.

Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
