plasma levels of a new pelletized form of amitriptyline for maintenance therapy. | plasma levels of amitriptyline and nortriptyline were measured in volunteers after one week of daily dosage with either 25 mg t.i.d. of standard amitriptyline tablets or a single 75-mg capsule of a new pelletized form of amitriptyline. concentrations of both compounds were essentially equal at the end of one week's dosage with either dosage form but were somewhat higher throughout the dosing time interval for the pelletized drug. | 2002 | 1123458 |
effects of truncal, selective, and highly selective vagotomy on glucose tolerance and insulin secretion in patients with duodenal ulcer. part i-effect of vagotomy on response to oral glucose. | an oral glucose tolerance test was performed in patients who had undergone truncal vagotomy and pyloroplasty, bilateral selective vagotomy and pyloroplasty, or highly selective vagotomy without a drainage procedure at least six months earlier. the results were compared with those from patients with chronic duodenal ulcer before operation. in all three groups of patients after vagotomy more rapid rates of rise of blood glucose and higher peak concentrations were observed than in patients who were ... | 2003 | 1125698 |
fatal overdose from bendectin. | a three-year old male ingested approximately 100 tablets of bendectin. he developed tonic-clonic seizures followed by cardiac arrest. toxicologic analysis yielded high levels of doxylamine, dicyclomine, and pyridoxine in blood, peritoneal fluid, and tissue homogenates. the antihistamine, doxylamine succinate appears to be the toxic constituent. analytical methods used to document the case are herein described. | 2003 | 1126102 |
role of saline consumption in the prevention of deoxycorticosterone hypertension in rats by central 6-hydroxydopamine. | 1. the mechanism by which pretreatment of rats with intracisternal 6-hydroxydopamine prevents the onset of deoxycorticosterone hypertension has been studied. 2. rats pretreated with central 6-hydroxydopamine increase their consumption of 0-17 mol/l sodium chloride--0-03 mol/l potassium chloride ('saline') less than normal rats when implanted with deoxycorticosterone. 3. intact rats restricted to the equivalent consumption of saline of rats pretreated with 6-hydroxydopamine develop hypertension d ... | 1975 | 1126124 |

the dependence of psychiatric diagnosis on psychological assessment. | this study examined the dependence of 500 inpatient psychiatric diagnoses on the results of standard psychological assessment procedures. a 43% agreement was found between psychological test findings and psychiatric discharge diagnoses. while this level of agreeement is greater than chance, it suggests that psychological test results are not of value in more than one-half of the cases investigated. specific diagnostic discrepancies between clinical and psychological diagnostic results were noted ... | 1989 | 1194415 |
depression and senility. | the literature suggests a closer relationship between reversible depression and irreversible senile organicity than generally has been accepted. accordingly, zung's self-rating depression scale was given to 120 men and women, aged 60 or older, of whom 30 of each sex were classified as nonsenile and 30 of each sex were classified as moderately senile by the personnel of senior citizen centers, convalescent hospitals, and nursing homes. the results indicated that moderately senile ss scored signif ... | 1989 | 1194416 |
neurotic verbalizations: an exploration of a gestalt therapy assumption. | based upon assumptions of gestalt therapy, an objective, reliable scoring system for analyzing a specific aspect of verbal behavior, avoidant verbalization, was developed. verbal samples were elicited from 30 female college students who previously had been rank ordered on the neuroticism scale of the maudsley personality inventory. the expectation that psychologically stressful questions would result in a significantly greater number of avoidant verbalizations was confirmed. contrary to another ... | 1990 | 1194436 |
the stimulation of insight and self-awareness through body-movement exercise. | the results suggest that even a brief body-movement experience can enhance understanding and self-awareness among normal students in a classroom setting. it may be that exercises could be used in other areas of learning or exploration. these completely noverbal activities may have the same beneficial effects as role-playing, with respect to increasing insight and self-awareness. | 1990 | 1194437 |
runway performance of rats for brain-stimulation or food reward: effects of hunger and priming. | in a runway paradigm, pretrial electric stimulation of the brain (esb), food deprivation, and to a lesser extent water deprivation increased the running speed of rats to an esb reward. the trial-by-trail course of the change in running speed after the manipulation of food deprivation resembled the steplike performance effect seen when pretrial priming esb is changed rather than the incremental learning effect seen when the response contingent esb is changed. in a second experiment, pretrial esb ... | 1975 | 1194461 |
hyperstriatal function in the pigeon: response inhibition or response shift? | experiment 1 showed that pigeons with lesions of the anterior or posterior hyperstriatum were impaired relative to unoperated controls and to control operates having neostriatal lesions on both acquisition and reversal of a simultaneous position discrimination. the observation that hyperstriatal birds showed more tendency than controls to halt responding altogether in this situation cast doubt on the notion that the reversal deficit was due to a loss of response inhibition. a second experiment s ... | 1990 | 1194462 |
