phospholipid/vomiting

Anti Phospholipid Syndrome (APS) is a relatively new conception of syndrome complex first noticed in 1983. It may be primary or secondary to other diseases like SLE, RA, Systemic sclerosis, behchet's syndrome, temporal arteritis, sjogren's syndrome psoriatic arthropathy etc. Clinical manifestations

Nausea and/or vomiting in pregnancy (emesis gravidarum) is a very common event. The specific etiology of this disorder is still unknown. In this study we examined serum lipid and lipoprotein concentrations in 98 healthy pregnant women in early and late pregnancy. Sixty of these women complained of

BM 41.440 (1-hexadecylmercapto-2-methoxymethyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine) is a new thioether phospholipid, which has been shown to possess antineoplastic, antimetastatic, anti-invasive and immunomodulating properties in several tumor models. The mechanism whereby this compound exerts its direct

The aim of the current manuscript was to test the applicability of a nanocomposite system of penetration enhancer vesicles (PEVs) within polymeric in situ forming gel network composed of poloxamer and hyaluronic acid for the intranasal delivery of the antiemetic dimenhydrinate (DMH). PEVs were

Many attempts have been made to achieve good selectivity to targeted tumor cells by preparing specialized carrier agents that are therapeutically profitable for anticancer therapy. Among these, liposomes are the most studied colloidal particles thus far applied in medicine and in particular in

Acute renal infarction usually occurs in patients with severe atherosclerosis or valvular heart disease. We here report a 42-year Saudi male who presented with severe abdominal pain nausea and vomiting associated with hematuria, after heavy smoking of marijuana. Computed tomography abdomen revealed

Diagnosis and treatment of Indian visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is extremely unsatisfactory. For diagnosis, demonstration of parasites in splenic/marrow smears remains the gold standard, though k39 rapid strip test is a useful method in regions where access to parasite demonstration is difficult.

A clinical study was designed to evaluate the tolerance of cancer patients to liposome-associated doxorubicin (L-DXR). The liposomes used contain phosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylcholine, cholesterol, and DXR intercalated in the lipid bilayer, and have a mean size in the range of 0.3-0.5 microns.

A 15-month-old girl died unexpectedly in hospital following a five-day history of intermittent cardiac arrhythmias and convulsions preceded by several weeks of occasional vomiting. Autopsy revealed subendocardial nodules in the left ventricle, and tricuspid and mitral valves that were composed of

OBJECTIVE To compare conventional amphotericin B (c-amp B) and liposomal amphotericin B (L-AMP-LRC-1-India) in patients with systemic fungal infection in open, randomized, comparative, laboratory blind, phase III safety and efficacy study. METHODS Formulation of liposomal amphotericin B -

OBJECTIVE Miltefosine, an alkyl phospholipid has been found effective against visceral leishmaniasis (VL) in adults in various studies. The authors safety, tolerance and efficacy of Miltefosine and compared with available gold standard anti-Ieishmanial drug, Amphotericin B, a parenteral formulation

The chronic oral toxicity of propiverine hydrochloride (P-4), a new anti-pollakiuria agent, was studied in beagle dogs. Groups of 6 males and 6 females were treated with P-4 at doses of 0, 0.3, 1, 3, 9 mg/kg/day for one year and thereafter 2 animals of both sexes in each group were placed on

Beagle dogs were allocated to 4 groups, each consisting of 3 males and 3 females, which received 0.055, 0.165 or 0.495 mg paraquat (PQ)/kg/day sc for 4 w to investigate subacute toxicity. Recovery 4 and 8 w postadministration was studied. In the early stage there was vomiting, decreased activity and

Four male and three female marmosets in each group were exposed to air only, 1000 ppm of HCFC 225ca or 5000 ppm of HCFC 225cb, for 6 h per day for 28 consecutive days. HCFC 225ca caused a slight reduction in body weight. HCFC 225cb occasionally caused somnolence during exposure and vomiting on the

The potential toxicity of FE-S15, a soybean oil fat emulsion used in parenteral nutrition, was studied in dogs. Forty pure bred beagles, divided into two experimental groups (FE-S15 at 9 and 4 gm/kg BW/day) and two corresponding control groups (receiving Dextrose Ringer's Solution) were given daily
