Three generic aminophylline products were examined and found to have equivalent bioavailability. Plasma theophylline levels were found to be reproducible in most patients (intraclass r = 0.7). There were some patients who showed wide swings in plasma theophylline levels without signs of toxicity or
BACKGROUND
Theophylline causes potent cerebral vasoconstriction which decreases blood flow in the non-ischaemic areas of the brain and increases collateral blood flow surrounding the ischaemic region.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this review was to assess the effect of theophylline and its analogues
BACKGROUND
Theophylline causes potent cerebral vasoconstriction which decreases blood flow in the non-ischaemic areas of the brain and increases collateral blood flow surrounding the ischaemic region. NOTE: This review covers an area where no active research is taking place. It will be updated if
The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac surgery remains high. The nonspecific adenosine receptor antagonist aminophylline has been shown to confer benefit in experimental and clinical acute renal failure (ARF) due to ischemia, contrast media, and various nephrotoxic agents. We
OBJECTIVE
This study sought to evaluate the effect of adenosine receptor blockade by aminophylline on cardiac functional reserve in patients with syndrome X.
BACKGROUND
Aminophylline may have a potentially antiischemic effect through the inhibition of adenosine and, thus, the coronary steal
BACKGROUND
Clinical trials on contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN) prevention with different approaches generated various results. In this study, we investigated whether intravenous aminophylline preceding percutaneous transluminal renal artery stenting (PTRS) might provide better renal
OBJECTIVE
To present a clinical approach to the management of acute asthma and the life threatening episode of asthma.
METHODS
A review of published peer-review articles and studies reported from 1966 to 1999 and identified through a MEDLINE search on the management of acute asthma, status
Treatment of Acute Exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease Involves Administration of O2, beta 2 adrenergic, anticholinergic drugs, corticoids, theophylline, antibiotics, mucolytics and supported ventilation. The objective of oxygen treatment is to increase the oxygen saturation to a
BACKGROUND
The aim of this work was to study whether different degrees of duodenal mucosal damage in coeliac disease (CD) influenced secretory responses to well-known secretagogues.
METHODS
Intestinal biopsies from 53 patients in different clinical phases of CD and 34 patients without CD and with
BACKGROUND
Altered regulation of nitric oxide-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (NO-cGMP) is present in liver cirrhosis. Several experimental studies have shown that selective modulation of NO metabolism in the liver reduces intrahepatic resistance and portal pressure in cirrhosis. This preliminary
Theophylline is an alkaloid found in tea (Thea sinensis) and chocolate and is structurally related to caffeine and theobromine. Theophylline is used as a pharmaceutical agent. It stimulates the heart and central nervous system, relaxes the smooth muscles of the bronchi and blood vessels, and causes
Asthma is a common chronic disorder, with a prevalence of 8 to 10 percent in the U.S. population. From 5 to 10 percent of patients have severe disease that does not respond to typical therapeutic interventions. To prevent life-threatening sequelae, it is important to identify patients with severe
After unsuccessful therapy with salbutamol syrup and inhaled terbutaline a 3-year-old boy with an acute exacerbation of asthma was treated with nebulised salbutamol (albuterol), intravenous aminophylline and hydrocortisone. His condition continued to deteriorate and he required artificial
Cell apoptosis is an important mechanism underlying skeletal muscle dysfunction in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients, and mitochondrial dysfunction is recognized as a central aspect contributing to skeletal muscle deterioration. Bufei Jianpi granules have been BACKGROUND
Bufei Jianpi granules has been confirmed effective in improving pulmonary function, alleviating acute exacerbations, improving six-minute walk distance and quality of life, and benefited in 12-month follow-up in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with syndrome of
