BACKGROUND
Many hypertensive patients require combination therapy to achieve target blood pressure (BP). beta-Blockers and dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers are effective as monotherapy in hypertensive patients and have complementary mechanisms for lowering BP.
METHODS
This multicenter,
A 63-year-old woman was admitted with a year's history of exertional breathlessness, anxiety attacks, syncopal episodes, diarrhoea, fatigue, reduced appetite, 2 stones weight loss, and flushing affecting her face and trunk. Investigations revealed raised urine 5-hydroxy indole acetic acid (5-HIAA)
OBJECTIVE
On December 7, 2007, the Hebei Spirit oil tanker spilled out 12,547 kl of crude oil on the Yellow Sea 10 km away from the cost of Taean Province, Korea. As the coastline has been contaminated, local residents have been exposed to crude oil. Because the residents were showing many symptoms,
A 57-year-old female patient presented at the emergency department with fatigue, increased sweating, flushing symptoms, loss of appetite, drowsiness and severe diarrhea. Besides she also mentioned painful left-sided sore throat radiating to the temples, beginning two weeks after a flu and subfebrile
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the prevalence of anxiety among tent inhabitants one month after the 5.12 Sichuan earthquake as to formulating intervention strategies.
METHODS
A stratified random sampling method was adopted. Inclusion criteria were: inhabitants, aged above 18 years old, living in tent in
We performed phase I study of FK 435, a new antiestrogen, in 30 patients with advanced breast cancer. Slight to moderate adverse reactions were noted as follows. Single-dose study: anorexia, nausea, lassitude in one patient (80 mg), decreased serum calcium in one (160 mg), redness, tenderness in
We gave miproxifene phosphate to six patients with recurrent breast cancer and to one patient with advanced breast cancer. This drug was orally administered at a daily dose of 20 mg in the morning, and serial blood samples were obtained just before the drug administration. Treatment was discontinued
OBJECTIVE
To compare the safety of regadenoson, a selective agonist of A2A adenosine receptors, combined with low-level exercise, between subjects with mild/moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma referred for myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI).
METHODS
We studied 116
A double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled study was conducted to determine the efficacy of a promising immunoadsorption treatment device containing staphylococcal protein A (Prosorba Immunoadsorption Column, Cypress Bioscience, Inc., San Diego, CA, U.S.A.) in patients with refractory rheumatoid
Supportive care of patients with functional neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) has evolved to include the use of multiple targeted agents to control paraneoplastic states and newer surgical and interventional radiologic techniques to reduce tumor bulk. Challenges encountered by the clinician are the
The high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-Atherosclerosis Treatment Study showed that simvastatin plus niacin (mean daily dose 13 mg and 2.4 g, respectively) halt angiographic atherosclerosis progression and reduce major clinical events by 60% in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who have low
The safety and efficacy of Amlodipine (AML) for mild to moderate hypertension was evaluated in a "real life" setting. This open non-comparative trial included 123 men and 143 women (age 30-91 years, mean 59.4). All had sitting diastolic blood pressure (DBP) between 95 and 115 mmHg, confirmed in most
Felodipine is a dihydropyridine that blocks the slow entry channel for calcium. It is highly vascular selective and reduces blood pressure (BP) by dilatation of peripheral arterioles. It reduces BP in mild, moderate, and severe hypertension, and the fall in BP depends upon the initial level. It has
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate, in long-term open label prospective study, infliximab as therapeutic choice for Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) non responsive to conventional therapy.
METHODS
We enrolled to treat with infliximab 78 JIA patients (66 females, 12 males): the mean age was 20.7+/-7.1 years
Twenty-seven patients with metastatic carcinoid tumor, 24 of whom had the malignant carcinoid syndrome, were treated with recombinant leukocyte A interferon at a planned dose of 24 x 10(6) U/m2. Twenty percent of patients with measurable tumor experienced an objective regression and 39% of those
