The anti-emetic effect, safety and clinical usefulness of ondansetron for the treatment of nausea and vomiting caused by anticancer drugs including cisplatin, was evaluated by a multi-institutional study in patients with various malignancies. In this study, ondansetron was given intravenously with
This report is a 17-year-old man with an acute renal failure who complained of nausea, vomiting, bilateral loin pain and abdominal pain after scuffle. Renal biopsy specimen obtained from the left kidney revealed acute tubular necrosis. After recovering renal function he showed extreme hypouricemia
In a collective of 3899 out-patients, the effect of uric acid reduction of benzbromarone was tested. Ten days after beginning of treatment, a uric acid concentration of 5.1 to 5.7 mg/100 ml had been obtained. Three months after beginning of therapy, uric acid values were at 4.9 mg/100 ml,
This was an open-label study in 19 children aged 9-13 years, weighing 27-44 kg, with bronchial asthma. Twenty-four-hour steady-state concentrations of theophylline and its metabolites 1,3-dimethyl uric acid, 3-methyl xanthine and 1-methyl uric acid were assessed after daily dosing of 600 mg (ca 18
Fenestration of basilar artery is an uncommon vascular anomaly that is usually an incidental product on autopsy or angiography. None of the cases in the literature had clinical symptoms associated with this anomaly except for subarachnoid hemorrhage when accompanied with saccular aneurysm. We report
Symptomatic ejaculatory duct (ED) calculi, typically composed of uric acid, carbonate apatite and calcium phosphate, or calcium phosphate in the form of hydroxyapatite, are rare occurrences. We report a case of bilateral, large ED calculi in a patient with spina bifida myelomeningocele and an
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate efficacy and safety of pegloticase, approved by the Food and Drug Administration in September 2010 for treatment of patients with chronic treatment-refractory gout.
METHODS
Literature searches were conducted using PubMed (1948-January 2012), TOXLINE, International
BACKGROUND
Pegloticase is a potential new treatment option for patients with chronic gout intolerant to other urate-lowering therapies.
OBJECTIVE
To assess safety (adverse events, death) and efficacy (pain, function, frequency of flares, quality of life, uric acid level, radiographic damage) of
Benzbromarone is a uricosuric agent that reduces proximal tubular reabsorption of uric acid. Because of hepatotoxicity, it has been withdrawn from the market in Europe. Recently, some benefit-risk assessments of benzbromarone suggest that benzbromarone has greater benefits than risks, The efficacy and safety of gliclazide (Diamicron) were studied in 29 NIDDM patients (19 men and 10 women aged 25-68 years) who failed to improve with diet or with diet plus a sulfonylurea. All patients were overweight and had fasting blood glucose levels consistently above 150 mg/dl (8.24 mmol/l).

OBJECTIVE
Indinavir sulfate is an effective protease inhibitor of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1. Use is associated with a significant incidence of crystallization and stone formation in the urinary tract, and these calculi are not visible on plain radiographs. Previously all urinary
BACKGROUND
Acute kidney injury induced by aristolochic acid (AA) might occur in patients with chronic glomerular nephritis (CGN). In this study, the clinical and pathological features of patients with acute aristolochic acid nephropathy (AAN) superimposing CGN (AAN-CGN) were
