In eight asthmatic patients, there was no change in the bronchodilator response to a single dose of ephedrine (22 mg) given alone or in a compound tablet, after treatment with ephedrine (11 mg three times a day) or one tablet three times a day for 2 weeks. 2 There was no deterioration in lung
Cardiolipin (CL) is crucial for mitochondrial energy metabolism and structural integrity. Alterations in CL quantity or CL species have been associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in several pathological conditions and diseases, including mitochondrial dysfunction-related compound attrition and
OBJECTIVE
To assess the efficacy and safety of sildenafil citrate (Viagra) in men with erectile dysfunction and parkinsonism due either to Parkinson's disease or multiple system atrophy.
METHODS
Twenty four patients with erectile disease were recruited, 12 with Parkinson's disease and 12 with
We report a case of a 38-year-old woman with spi- nocerebellar degeneration who had spinal anesthesia for emergency cesarean section. Spinal anesthesia was initiated with 2.2 ml of 0.5% bupivacaine, 10 μg fentanyl and 100 μg morphine hydrochloride at L3-4. Sensory loss was T4 level. For treatment of
Infrahepatic inferior vena cava (IIVC) clamping is beneficial for reducing the amount of bleeding during hepatic surgery, although the associated systemic circulatory deterioration is noticeable. The relationship between changes in the degree of IIVC clamping and postoperative renal OBJECTIVE
We previously showed that compression of the nondependent lung during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in patients undergoing esophagectomy improves arterial oxygenation but impairs cardiac output (CO) and systemic oxygen delivery (DO(2)). The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis
In this experiment, we investigated the effects of crude Ephedrae herba, alkaloid extract of Ephedrae herba and 1-ephedrine, a major alkaloid component, on diabetic mice induced by streptozotocin (STZ). The alkaloid extract and 1-ephedrine showed suppression on the hyperglycemia. The suppression by
Multiple doses of the dietary supplement L-ephedrine can cause severe hyperthermia and modest dopamine depletions in the rat brain. Since D-amphetamine treatment can result in neurodegeneration, the potential of L-ephedrine to produce similar types of degeneration was investigated. Adult male rats,
Ephedrine abuse has spread in many parts of the world, severely threatening human health. The mechanism of ephedrine toxicity is still unclear. To explore the possible neural mechanisms of ephedrine toxicity, this study established a non-human primate model of ephedrine exposure, analyzed the
Introduction: Slow-channel congenital myasthenic syndrome is an autosomal dominant inherited progressive neuromuscular disorder caused by abnormal gating of mutant acetylcholine receptors in the neuromuscular junction. Its pathological
Ma Huang (equivalent to 0, 12.5, 25, or 50 mg/kg ephedrine) or ephedrine (0, 6.25, 12.5, 25 mg/kg) were administered as one bolus oral dose to male F344 rats with and without caffeine. The herbal medicine Ma Huang (ephedra) in combination with caffeine caused rapid clinical signs of toxicity
Cerebral blood flow (CBF) and middle cerebral artery velocity (MCAv) have been measured using 133xenon washout and transcranial Doppler in ten patients with autonomic failure. Four pure autonomic failure and four multiple system atrophy patients behaved similarly: tilting them sufficiently to induce
A 65-year-old woman with olivopontocerebellar atrophy (OPCA), manifested with cerebellar ataxia mainly, with coexisting impairment of the autonomic nervous system function, and extrapyramidal symptoms, was scheduled for cholecystectomy. With no premedication, anesthesia was induced with sevoflurane
In the slow channel congenital myasthenic syndrome mutations in genes encoding the muscle acetylcholine receptor give rise to prolonged ion channel activations. The resulting cation overload in the postsynaptic region leads to damage of synaptic structures, impaired neuromuscular transmission and
Because of possible side effects of herbal medicines containing ephedrine and guarana-derived caffeine, including increased risk of stroke, myocardial infarction, and sudden death, the Food and Drug Administration recently banned the sale of ephedra-containing products, specifically over-the-counter
