Aprindine hydrochloride is an antiarrhythmic drug now under investigation. The drug is most effective in prophylaxis of ventricular dysrhythmias. Previously recognized toxic effects include neurological side effects, nausea, vomiting, as well as a reported association with agranulocytosis. To our
Thyroid storm is a rare, potentially lethal condition involving collapse of the hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid feedback loop. Thyroid storm carries a significant mortality rate, thus requiring prompt identification and treatment. A 47-year-old woman presented to the emergency department complaining
OBJECTIVE
To observe the curative effect and side effect of tigecycline in the treatment of patients with infection caused by granulocytopenia.
METHODS
The clinical data of 107 patients who were treated with tigecycline for infection due to granulocytopenia were retrospectively reviewed. The
A 70-year-old Japanese woman with renal dysfunction under hemodialysis presented with vomiting and chill with fever. Over the previous 24 weeks she had been taking 75 mg of ranitidine after hemodialysis. Other medications taken were prednisolone, furosemide, alpha-calcidol, amlodipine and calcium
Deferiprone, also known as L1, is an orally active iron chelator that has been studied extensively in clinical trials. The sporadic occurrence of agranulocytosis in association with deferiprone and the highly variable frequency of other possible side effects such as arthralgia have created
OBJECTIVE
This study was designed to assess the anti-tumor activity of topotecan (TPT) in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) previously untreated with chemotherapy.
METHODS
Patients with stage IIIB or IV NSCLC with measurable disease in nonradiated fields were eligible. Other
Mitoxantrone (Novantrone, N) is a new anthracenedione derivative with structural similarities to doxorubicin (Adriamycin, A). It has shown significant activity during phase I and II clinical trials in the treatment of advanced breast cancer. The present trial compares the CNF regimen to CAF. All
Omeprazole has been marketed in France since 1989, for the healing of peptic ulcers, erosive reflux esophagitis and the Zollinger Ellison syndrome. It is a proton pump inhibitor which inhibits the acid secretion in the stomach. In the majority of the clinical trials, omeprazole has been found to be
Mathematical methods were developed to construct dose and time distributions and their associated risks and threshold values for lethal and non-lethal effects of acute radiation exposure to include mortality and incidence, prodromal vomiting, and agranulocytosis. A new distribution (T-model) was
Five children with AML were treated with high-doses of Ara-C (2 g/m2) during consolidation. After 17 cycles the toxicity was evaluated. Granulocytopenia (< 0.5 x 10(9)/l) and thrombocytopenia (< 25 x 10(9)/l) were stated after 15/17 and 13/17 cycles respectively. The nadir of bone marrow suppression
Patients with visceral patterns of metastatic breast cancer were stratified according to dominant metastatic site and performance status and then randomized to therapy with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, and 5-fluorouracil (CAF) or CAF alternating with a "cell-cycle active" regimen including
Recent data have suggested enhanced therapeutic activity with prolonged administration of both etoposide as well as fluoropyrimidines in the treatment of gastrointestinal malignancies. Based on this rationale, we investigated the clinical effectiveness and tolerance of an oral modification of the
We evaluated the effects of various schedules of peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) reinfusion, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) priming, and CD34+ enrichment on hematopoietic recovery in 88 patients with advanced breast cancer treated with high-dose chemotherapy, consisting of cisplatin
It has been reported that 7-ethyl-10-[4-(1-piperidino)-1-piperidino]carbonyloxy-camptothecin (CPT-11) and its active metabolite, 7-ethyl-10-hydroxy-camptothecin (SN-38), have absorption characteristics of weakly basic drugs, suggesting that alkalization of the intestinal lumen might reduce
We describe a 26-year-old female patient, who had attempted suicide with Endosulfan, and who presented to the Emergency Department with status epilepticus. She subsequently developed hypotension refractory to inotropes, intravascular hemolysis, disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), metabolic
