Developing a quantitative extraction technique for determining the organic additives in smokeless handgun powder.

Journal of forensic sciences

Reardon MR, MacCrehan WA.
PMID: 11451060
J Forensic Sci. 2001 Jul;46(4):802-7.

Compositional analysis of the organic additives in smokeless handgun powder can provide forensic information to associate known and questioned samples. A reliable method for the quantitative extraction of smokeless powder additives would strengthen these measurements. To achieve quantitative recovery,...

Attenuation of Endothelium-Dependent Relaxation in Mesenteric Artery during Noise-Induced Hypertension.

Journal of biomedical science

Wu CC, Chen SJ, Yen MH.
PMID: 11725006
J Biomed Sci. 1994 Dec;1(1):49-53. doi: 10.1007/BF02258339.

The present study was designed to determine whether there is a causal relationship between noise-induced hypertension and changes of endothelial function. Rats were exposed to noise stress (100 dB, 1 kHz, 4 h/day, 6 days/week) for 1-4 weeks. The...

Coronary Artery Spasm.

Current treatment options in cardiovascular medicine

Lanza GA, Maseri A.
PMID: 11096513
Curr Treat Options Cardiovasc Med. 2000 Feb;2(1):83-90. doi: 10.1007/s11936-000-0031-0.

Attacks of variant angina usually respond promptly to sublingual administration of short-acting nitrates (nitroglycerin, 0.3 to 0.4 mg, or isosorbide dinitrate, 5 to 10 mg), which may be repeated after 3 to 5 minutes if pain persists. In the...

Pioglitazone restores endothelial function in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with insulin.

Metabolic syndrome and related disorders

Asnani S, Kunhiraman B, Jawa A, Akers D, Lumpkin D, Fonseca V.
PMID: 18370736
Metab Syndr Relat Disord. 2006;4(3):179-84. doi: 10.1089/met.2006.4.179.

The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of pioglitazone on endothelial function, as assessed by flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) nitroglycerine-induced dilatation (NID) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus treated with insulin. A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled...

The use of vasodilators in the treatment of acute decompensated heart failure: novel versus conventional therapy.

Critical pathways in cardiology

Kirk JD, Diercks DB, Amsterdam EA.
PMID: 18340175
Crit Pathw Cardiol. 2004 Dec;3(4):216-20. doi: 10.1097/01.hpc.0000147143.29540.a5.

The majority of patients who present with acute decompensated heart failure require the addition of vasodilators to adequately reduce filling pressures and improve symptoms. Conventional therapies such as nitroglycerin and nitroprusside, although relatively effective, are difficult to use. Nesiritide,...

A novel method for extraction and analysis of gunpowder residues on double-side adhesive coated stubs.

Journal of forensic sciences

Zeichner A, Eldar B.
PMID: 15568690
J Forensic Sci. 2004 Nov;49(6):1194-206.

A study was conducted to develop an efficient method for extraction and analysis of gunpowder (propellant) residues from double-side adhesive coated stubs, which are used for sampling suspects or their clothing for gunshot (primer) residues (GSR). Conductive and non-conductive...

The effects of organic nitrates on osteoporosis: a randomized controlled trial [ISRCTN94484747].

Trials

Jamal SA, Hamilton CJ, Black D, Cummings SR.
PMID: 16640783
Trials. 2006 Apr 26;7:10. doi: 10.1186/1745-6215-7-10.

BACKGROUND: Osteoporotic fractures are common and are associated with increased morbidity, mortality and health care costs. The most effective way to moderate increases in health care costs and the sickness and premature death associated with osteoporotic fractures, is to...

Drug utilization and health behaviours among indigent elderly patients in Crete, Greece.

Pharmacoepidemiology and drug safety

Tzimis L, Kafatos A.
PMID: 15073935
Pharmacoepidemiol Drug Saf. 1999 Mar;8(2):105-14. doi: 10.1002/(SICI)1099-1557(199903/04)8:2<105::AID-PDS398>3.0.CO;2-X.

AIM: To examine pharmaceutical needs, prescribed drugs, knowledge about pharmacotherapy and health behaviours among Social Care indigent elderly patients.PATIENTS: There were a total of 551 Social Care indigent patients registers in Chania, Crete, Greece at the time of the...

Clinical significance of mean circulatory filling pressure and cardiac preload under anesthesia.

Journal of anesthesia

Ohishi K, Muteki T, Shinozaki M, Aragaki T, Tagami M, Shimizu D, Takagi T.
PMID: 15237303
J Anesth. 1987 Mar 01;1(1):35-43. doi: 10.1007/s0054070010035.

The circulatory effects of a rapid infusion of plasma substitute with intravenous administration of nitroglycerine (TNG) were investigated in low pressure systems of anesthetized patients by measuring various hemodynamic parameters. Measurements were made when the systolic blood pressure reached...

Recurrent myocardial infarction in a patient with Prinzmetal's angina and normal coronary arteries.

Cardiovascular diseases

Trillos D, Krajcer Z, Lufschanowski R, Leachman RD, Klima T, Cooley DA.
PMID: 15216288

A 55-year-old man was referred for the evaluation of frequent chest pain and syncope. While in the hospital, he experienced severe chest pain accompanied by transient ST segment elevation and a slight elevation of cardiac enzyme levels. Multiple coronary...

Novel organic nitrate prodrug 4(R)-N-(2-Nitroxyethyl)-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxamide (RS-7897) serves as a xenobiotic substrate for pyroglutamyl aminopeptidase I in dogs.

Drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics

Abe K, Yamada M, Terao T, Mizuno H, Matsuoka Y, Yorikane R, Tokui T, Ikeda T.

RS-7897, a novel organic nitrate, structurally contains aminoethylnitrate (AEN) and L-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (L-OTCA), which are linked together via an amide bond. Vasodilating activity of RS-7897 was 130 times weaker than that of AEN in vitro, while in vivo it...

The effects of oxytocin on intracranial pressure.

Journal of neurosurgical anesthesiology

Thiagarajah S, Lear E, Azar I.
PMID: 15815422

The commonly used vasodilators sodium nitroprusside and nitroglycerine increase the intracranial pressure (ICP). Oxytocin is also a vasodilator although its primary effect is contraction of uterine smooth muscle. We therefore studied the effect of oxytocin on the ICP of...
