In 49 patients with insulin-resistant diabetes, with ischaemia of the lower extremities blood viscosity was measured at low coagulation rates and plasma viscosity was determined also. Moreover plasma measurements were done of total lipids, alpha-, pre-beta-, and beta lipoproteins, triglycerides,
Etomidate has become an important induction agent in high-risk patients because of its cardiovascular stability. Its unwanted side-effects such as pain on injection and thrombophlebitis could be significantly reduced by a new (medium chain triglyceride and soya bean) emulsion formulation. Propofol
The incidence of renal vein thrombosis (RVT) and other thrombo-embolic phenomena was evaluated in 44 unselected patients with nephrotic syndrome. Renal vein thrombosis was demonstrated by selective renal venography in 10 patients and at post-mortem in one. Extension of the thrombus from the renal
This retrospective study describes the use of and complications associated with parenteral nutrition (PN) administration to 53 equine neonates at the University of California Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital. Medical records were examined and information obtained on signalment, physical
BACKGROUND
Pain on injection is a major disadvantage of propofol, experienced by the vast majority of patients. Since the traditional formulation has almost normal osmolality and pH, it is hypothesised that the concentration of free propofol in the aqueous phase of the emulsion is responsible for
This study investigated the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic equivalence of 1% and 2% propofol emulsions when used for total intravenous anaesthesia for intracranial surgery. The same infusion rate (6.7 mg.kg-1 x h-1) of the two preparations was administered. Induction doses, recovery times, and
The relative risk of thrombophlebitis induced by either Long-chain Triglycerides (LCTs) or Medium-chain Triglycerides (MCTs) during peripheral i.v. nutrition (PIN) was evaluated. A total of 76 patients were randomly assigned into group A (n=40) and group B (n=36). The nutritional requirements in
The positive results of jejunoileal bypass are briefly reviewed: significant weight reduction, lowering of blood pressure, mitigation of diabetes, improved physical functions, amelioration of osteoarthritis and thrombophlebitis, and improved self-esteem and socialization. A major benefit of
OBJECTIVE
To test the lipid-lowering effects of continuous combined hormone-replacement therapy in hypercholesterolemic postmenopausal women.
METHODS
A total of 32 postmenopausal women identified through health fair and cholesterol screening records, whose ad libitum low-density lipoprotein (LDL)
BACKGROUND
It is common experience to all urologists to manage many patients admitted at night from the casualty ward with a diagnosis of "therapy-resistant renal colic". However not all the patients with flank pain really suffer for renal colic, although painful somatic irradiation refers to the
